Once a rich and clever boy had practically everything a boy could want, so he was not interested in most toys. But he couldn't get a very old mirror, and he convinced his parents to buy it from a mysterious(神秘的)old man. When the mirror arrived home, the boy went to see his reflection in it. His face looked very sad indeed. He tried smiling and making funny faces, but his reflection continued with its sad expression. "What a terrible mirror! It's the first time I've seen a mirror that didn't work properly!" the boy jumped violently.
That same afternoon he went into the street to play and bought a few toys, but on his way to the park he saw a little girl who was crying her heart out. The girl was crying so much and looked so lonely that the rich boy went over to help her and to see what had happened. The little girl told him that she had lost her parents.
Together the two set off in search of the parents. As the little girl wouldn't stop crying, the boy spent his money buying her sweets to cheer her up. Finally, after much walking, they found her parents who were much worried and were looking for her everywhere.
The rich boy said goodbye to them. As it was getting late, he decided to head for home, without being able to play. At home, he went to his room, and noticed a shining light in the corner, the same corner he had left the mirror in. Seeing this, he went over to the mirror, and realised that the light was coming from his own body, so radiant(闪亮的)with happiness he had become.
And so he understood the mystery of that mirror, the only mirror which could faithfully reflect the true joy of its owner. He realised it was true. He felt very happy at having helped that little girl. And since then, each morning when he looked in that mirror and failed to see a special shine, he knew what he had to do to bring it back.

A. Embarrassed. B. Angry. C. Worried. D. Delighted.

26. What could the boy see in the mirror after he went back from the park?

Teenagers from low-income families in particular are more likely than their middle-class peers(同龄人)to do less well in schoolwork and to drop out of school. Studies have shown, however, that a positive attitude towards schoolwork and the support and encouragement from their parents can help at-risk youngsters to overcome the economic barriers and lack of resources they face. Most of the evidence about the effects of parental involvement(参与) comes from research on mothers. Little is known, however, about how teenagers experience their fathers' warmth and the beliefs and behavior that are most affected by it.
This new study is part of a large one focusing on low-income families conducted in four middle schools in the southwestern United States. Researchers asked 183 sixth-graders about how optimistic and motivated they were about their schoolwork, and how they experienced their fathers' warmth. The students' maths and language arts grades were also gained. The research team took into account the influence that mothers have on their children's well-being in their analyses.
Their findings show how fathers can support their teenagers in ways that result in greater optimism and higher achievement at school. "Low-income fathers affect their teenagers' beliefs about themselves and their future, and these beliefs influence their achievement by increasing their determination to complete school tasks," says Dr. Marie-Anne.
These positive effects extend to both sons and daughters, although in different ways. Experiencing their fathers' warmth first influences daughters' sense of optimism, and then spills over into their feeling more determined and certain about their academic abilities. This in turn leads to better maths grades. There is a more direct link between their fathers' love and boys' belief in their ability to succeed in academy.
28. What is more likely to happen to teenagers from low-income families?
A. They will be more determined to struggle.
B. They will have fewer happy things to share.
C. They will fail in their studies and quit school.
D. They will receive less love from their parents.
29. How is the new research different from the previous ones?
A. It only researches families in the north of America.
B. It only studies low-education families in the world.
C. It combines questionnaire data and students' grades.
D. It mainly focuses on the effects of fathers' involvement.
30. What can we know about fathers' warmth?
A. It is less effective than that of mothers. B. It affects girls and boys in different ways.
C. It mainly applies to girls rather than boys. D. It has a more direct effect on girls than on boys.
31. Which of the following best explains "spills over" underlined in the last paragraph?
A. Spreads. B. Changes. C. Bursts. D. Checks.
D
Captured(捕获的)carbon dioxide (CO2) could be used to extract(提炼)useful metals from recycled technology such as smartphone batteries rather than just being buried underground. The technique could help make it more economical to capture the greenhouse gas before it enters the atmosphere.
"If you also extract metals by filling CO2, you add value to a process that is known to be costly," says Julien Leclaire at the University of Lyon, France.
CO2 is the main cause of modern climate change, so many people have attempted to develop technologies to capture it when it comes from power plants and other major sources. The gas can then be stored underground. The problem is that such carbon capture and storage (CCS) is expensive. "No one wants to pay the price for it," says Leclaire.
To make CCS more appealing, Leclaire's team has found a use for the gas.
His team collected CO2 from a car gas, cooled it, then pumped it into a mix of chemicals. The CO2 combined with the mix to make many molecules(分子)of various shapes and sizes.
The team found that this process could sort out mixtures of metals, because one metal would dissolve(溶解)in the liquid while another would form a solid. In a series of experiments, they successfully separated three kinds of metals-all of which are used in batteries, smartphones and computers.
If the process can be widely used, it could be a more environmentally friendly way to recycle batteries and other electrical equipment, says Leclaire. This is normally done using highly reactive chemicals, which are potentially polluting. Replacing them with CO2 should lead to a much lower environmental pollution, he says.
Other researchers and companies are trying to change captured CO2 into useful materials like plastics, which are normally produced from petrol, but this is chemically difficult. Leclaire says his approach is more in line with how CO2 behaves naturally. "Instead of copying what we know how to do better and cheaper with oil, let's find things you can only do with CO2," he says.
32. What can we learn from the first paragraph?
A. Extracting useful metals from recycled technology is widely used now.
B. Useful metals in the atmosphere are used to make smartphone batteries.
C. Abandoned smartphone batteries may have been buried underground before.
D. The greenhouse gas CO2 could be cleaned up after entering the atmosphere.
33. Why are many people attempting to capture CO2?
A. CO2 is the main cause of modern climate change.
B. CO2 can be used to recycle many resources.
C. Captured CO2 can be changed to useful gas.
D. CO2 is harmful to people's health.
34. What benefit could Leclaire's team's approach bring?
A. It could end the use of plastics.
B. It could reduce environmental pollution.
C. It could make more metals available to humans.
D. It could help reduce the cost of battery production.
35. What is the best title for the text?
A. The Ways to Make Smartphone Batteries
B. The Reason for Capturing Greenhouse Gas
C. Collecting CO2 Is Starting to Make New Progress
D. Captured CO2 Could Be Used to Help Recycle Useful Metals

Once a rich and clever boy had practically everything a boy could want, so he was not interested in most toys. But he couldn't get a very old mirror, and he convinced his parents to buy it from a mysterious(神秘的)old man. When the mirror arrived home, the boy went to see his reflection in it. His face looked very sad indeed. He tried smiling and making funny faces, but his reflection continued with its sad expression. "What a terrible mirror! It's the first time I've seen a mirror that didn't work properly!" the boy jumped violently.
That same afternoon he went into the street to play and bought a few toys, but on his way to the park he saw a little girl who was crying her heart out. The girl was crying so much and looked so lonely that the rich boy went over to help her and to see what had happened. The little girl told him that she had lost her parents.
Together the two set off in search of the parents. As the little girl wouldn't stop crying, the boy spent his money buying her sweets to cheer her up. Finally, after much walking, they found her parents who were much worried and were looking for her everywhere.
The rich boy said goodbye to them. As it was getting late, he decided to head for home, without being able to play. At home, he went to his room, and noticed a shining light in the corner, the same corner he had left the mirror in. Seeing this, he went over to the mirror, and realised that the light was coming from his own body, so radiant(闪亮的)with happiness he had become.
And so he understood the mystery of that mirror, the only mirror which could faithfully reflect the true joy of its owner. He realised it was true. He felt very happy at having helped that little girl. And since then, each morning when he looked in that mirror and failed to see a special shine, he knew what he had to do to bring it back.

Teenagers from low-income families in particular are more likely than their middle-class peers(同龄人)to do less well in schoolwork and to drop out of school. Studies have shown, however, that a positive attitude towards schoolwork and the support and encouragement from their parents can help at-risk youngsters to overcome the economic barriers and lack of resources they face. Most of the evidence about the effects of parental involvement(参与) comes from research on mothers. Little is known, however, about how teenagers experience their fathers' warmth and the beliefs and behavior that are most affected by it.
This new study is part of a large one focusing on low-income families conducted in four middle schools in the southwestern United States. Researchers asked 183 sixth-graders about how optimistic and motivated they were about their schoolwork, and how they experienced their fathers' warmth. The students' maths and language arts grades were also gained. The research team took into account the influence that mothers have on their children's well-being in their analyses.
Their findings show how fathers can support their teenagers in ways that result in greater optimism and higher achievement at school. "Low-income fathers affect their teenagers' beliefs about themselves and their future, and these beliefs influence their achievement by increasing their determination to complete school tasks," says Dr. Marie-Anne.
These positive effects extend to both sons and daughters, although in different ways. Experiencing their fathers' warmth first influences daughters' sense of optimism, and then spills over into their feeling more determined and certain about their academic abilities. This in turn leads to better maths grades. There is a more direct link between their fathers' love and boys' belief in their ability to succeed in academy.
28. What is more likely to happen to teenagers from low-income families?
A. They will be more determined to struggle.
B. They will have fewer happy things to share.
C. They will fail in their studies and quit school.
D. They will receive less love from their parents.
29. How is the new research different from the previous ones?
A. It only researches families in the north of America.
B. It only studies low-education families in the world.
C. It combines questionnaire data and students' grades.
D. It mainly focuses on the effects of fathers' involvement.
30. What can we know about fathers' warmth?
A. It is less effective than that of mothers. B. It affects girls and boys in different ways.
C. It mainly applies to girls rather than boys. D. It has a more direct effect on girls than on boys.
31. Which of the following best explains "spills over" underlined in the last paragraph?
A. Spreads. B. Changes. C. Bursts. D. Checks.
D
Captured(捕获的)carbon dioxide (CO2) could be used to extract(提炼)useful metals from recycled technology such as smartphone batteries rather than just being buried underground. The technique could help make it more economical to capture the greenhouse gas before it enters the atmosphere.
"If you also extract metals by filling CO2, you add value to a process that is known to be costly," says Julien Leclaire at the University of Lyon, France.
CO2 is the main cause of modern climate change, so many people have attempted to develop technologies to capture it when it comes from power plants and other major sources. The gas can then be stored underground. The problem is that such carbon capture and storage (CCS) is expensive. "No one wants to pay the price for it," says Leclaire.
To make CCS more appealing, Leclaire's team has found a use for the gas.
His team collected CO2 from a car gas, cooled it, then pumped it into a mix of chemicals. The CO2 combined with the mix to make many molecules(分子)of various shapes and sizes.
The team found that this process could sort out mixtures of metals, because one metal would dissolve(溶解)in the liquid while another would form a solid. In a series of experiments, they successfully separated three kinds of metals-all of which are used in batteries, smartphones and computers.
If the process can be widely used, it could be a more environmentally friendly way to recycle batteries and other electrical equipment, says Leclaire. This is normally done using highly reactive chemicals, which are potentially polluting. Replacing them with CO2 should lead to a much lower environmental pollution, he says.
Other researchers and companies are trying to change captured CO2 into useful materials like plastics, which are normally produced from petrol, but this is chemically difficult. Leclaire says his approach is more in line with how CO2 behaves naturally. "Instead of copying what we know how to do better and cheaper with oil, let's find things you can only do with CO2," he says.
32. What can we learn from the first paragraph?
A. Extracting useful metals from recycled technology is widely used now.
B. Useful metals in the atmosphere are used to make smartphone batteries.
C. Abandoned smartphone batteries may have been buried underground before.
D. The greenhouse gas CO2 could be cleaned up after entering the atmosphere.
33. Why are many people attempting to capture CO2?
A. CO2 is the main cause of modern climate change.
B. CO2 can be used to recycle many resources.
C. Captured CO2 can be changed to useful gas.
D. CO2 is harmful to people's health.
34. What benefit could Leclaire's team's approach bring?
A. It could end the use of plastics.
B. It could reduce environmental pollution.
C. It could make more metals available to humans.
D. It could help reduce the cost of battery production.
35. What is the best title for the text?
A. The Ways to Make Smartphone Batteries
B. The Reason for Capturing Greenhouse Gas
C. Collecting CO2 Is Starting to Make New Progress
D. Captured CO2 Could Be Used to Help Recycle Useful Metals
