If you're looking for a restaurant in Bologna, don't miss out on our picks of the best places to eat in the city.

Sfoglia Rina

Tradition and innovation are all on the menu at Sfoglia Rina, along-standing family restaurant near Bologna’s famous Two Towers.

Ingredients are carefully and sustainably sourced, and pasta-making classes are periodically offered for kids and adults.

Via Castiglione, 5/b, 40124 Bologna

Zerocinquantino

Aperitivo is typically a pre-dinner snack and drink, but at Zerocinquantino, you may make it a meal as many people in Bologna do.

One of the most inspiring features of our mom is her ability to face adversity and not to get defeated. She always emerges with a renewed spirit and a sense of hope. Her attitude to unfortunate events is typically met with: "Hey, nobody died; nobody has cancer; we'll get through this, too!” But by far, our mother's most widely used motto is: "Count your blessings !”

In 2003, our mother fell ill and had to have surgery. When the doctor told the unthinkable diagnosis to my family while Mom was in recovery - a kind of cancer - my sister called me and said, “Should we tell her?"

As it turned out, we didn’t have to say a word. Mom knew it even before she was told, and she soothed us when we should have been making her less worried. “Hey, let’s count our blessings; the doctor got it all and I'm not dead yet. Let’s have some faith/'

As usual, our wise mother was right. She survived not only the cancer, but five years later, she recovered from another round of cancer - colorectal cancer. She never needed chemo or radiation （化疗或放疗）because surprisingly both cancers were not getting worse and surgically （手术）removed. She has been cancer-free for nearly two years and counting.

“Faith - that's all you need," my mom said firmly as she tapped the table. "Feeling sorry for yourself doesn't help anything or solve the problem. Pity just adds to your problems. Spend your time counting your blessings instead. You'll see just how well off you really are. That’s my motto.”

Counting blessings is not just a motto drilled into our heads by our mom. It has become a way of life for all of us. So much so that when I count my blessings, my wise mother is always near the top of the list.

A new study from the University of Southampton has shown that glass bottles are more than four times as environmentally damaging as plastic bottles. The researchers explained that the production of glass bottles involves much greater amounts of energy and natural resources.

Most current research focuses on the impact of plastic, which also requires a lot of energy to mass-produce, and breaks down into smaller particles （微粒）that are affecting natural environments worldwide. However, according to the new study, glass bottles' total environmental impacts are much bigger than plastic bottles, when certain factors are accounted for, such as their contribution to climate change through overmuch energy use.

“A large amount of energy is needed to heat the raw materials to make glass,“ explained study co-author and postgraduate researcher Alice Brock. "During the melting of the raw materials for glass, gas pollutants such as SO2 and CO2 can be released,5, said Brock. "And since glass requires materials to be mined for its production - silica sand, soda ash and dolomite — these have all the associated environmental impacts on mining such as land degradation （退化）and dust from the mines reaching water sources.” According to Brock, silica sand mining can also cause silicosis, a disease caused by tiny silica particles reaching lungs, so there is also a considerable impact on human health.

The major advantage of glass over plastic is that it is more durable （耐用 的）.A glass bottle can be reused between 12 and 20 times. Unfortunately, glass bottles are often thrown away after a single use. “I think the meaning of this new study is that we really have to move to use bottles and cans more than once. Just recycling isn't enough, said Brock, “We need to change our mindset and move to things like refilling bottles, bottle return plans and the like if we are going to cut these environmental impacts.”

28. What is the most current research mainly about?

1. The total energy consumption of making plastic.
2. The detailed production process of plastic.
3. Plastic5s popularization in people's daily life.
4. Plastic's negative impacts on the environment.

29.    Why is the mining of raw materials mentioned in Paragraph 3?

1. To show its damage to the environment and people's health.
2. To stress the importance of the quality of raw materials.
3. To warn people to reduce the frequency of mining.
4. To indicate the complex process of making glass.

30. What’s Alice Brock's suggestion based on the new study?

1. Improving the technology of treating used bottles.
2. Finding alternatives to the raw materials for glass.
3. Reusing glass bottles as much as possible.
4. Replacing glass bottles with plastic ones.

31. Which section of a magazine does the text probably come from?

A. Economy. B. Geography. C. Healthcare. D. Environment.

D

You can find just about any skill you want to learn on the Internet. Steve Jobs's appealing presentation style, Steph Curry's jump shot, Michael Jackson's moonwalk - all of these are easily accessible. Clearly, instructional videos, how-to guides, and online tutorials （教程）have changed the way we learn.

But have they? Watching experts’ performances might make you feel that you could similarly perform the same skills. But new evidence suggests that learning by observation may sometimes make a great difference. Observers may feel confident that they're well prepared to try the task out themselves, but when they do, they’ll find that’s a different matter.

Researchers have conducted an experiment involving the moonwalk. One hundred participants watched an expert doing the moonwalk. They were randomly assigned to see a moonwalk video either once or 20 times continuously. They made predictions about their own moonwalk abilities and then attempted the moonwalk themselves. A video recorded their moonwalks and later their attempts were shown to an outside group of judges, who were blind to the number of times performers watched the training video. As a result, participants who watched 20 times and participants who watched once both predicted their scores, and the scores predicted by the first group were higher. But the judges gave similarly low ratings to both groups of participants.

Actually, when people watch videos, they see the performer^ technique, but they don't feel it themselves. Ifs one thing to memorize what steps to take, but another thing to experience how those steps are worked out. People often miss subtleties （细小但重要的 地方）while watching, and people are likely to underestimate the complexity of the skill, and overestimate their own abilities, after watching experts.

We're not saying that YouTube's tens of millions of instructional videos are useless. People get more out of watching after they have already attempted the skill, so try the skill yourself and then revisit your favorite how-to videos often to improve your technique. Learning skills takes time.

32.    What does the new evidence suggest?

1.    Online tutorials do change the way people learn.
2.    Observers perform as well as experts.
3.    Learning by observation is not difficult to achieve.
4.    Observing and learning are two different things.

33.    What did the researchers do in order to do the study?

1.    They explained the moonwalk to participants.
2.    They let participants watch videos after breaks.
3.    They prepared different videos for participants.
4.    They let different people watch a video for different times.

34.    What can we conclude from the moonwalk experiment in Paragraph 3?

1.    Watching experts more raises one's confidence rather than ability.
2.    The participants5 predictions are the same as the judges, scoring.
3.    The number of times participants watch training videos matters to them.
4.    Watching instructional videos increases observers, interest in the related area.

35.    What may the author advise learners to do?

1.    Compare the instructional videos from different platforms.
2.    Combine instructional videos with repeated practice.
3.    Watch instructional videos as much as possible.
4.    Be patient and concentrated while learning.

第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分）

阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。，选项中有 两项为多余选项。

Culture often refers to things like food, holidays, clothing, and music, but it also goes much deeper than that. 36 So when we meet people from different backgrounds, we can sometimes find that there are big differences in how we see the world, even if we speak the same language.

One of the best ways to understand others' cultures is to first examine your own. Do you take your shoes off when you go inside? 37 In Japan, you would never go inside without swapping your outdoor shoes for slippers, whereas in the US, many people don't bother taking their shoes off when they come in. Therefore, ifs so important to understand your place in the world, which will help you understand other people better too.

38 When you meet people from a different culture, you can politely ask them about their lives. Seek out books or watch movies by and about people who're different from you. Additionally, you can immerse （沉浸）yourself in a different culture through travel to understand how different other lifestyles can be.

However, sometimes, learning a lot about a different culture can lead you into a trap. You may think you know much about a culture, which may lead you to show off your knowledge when you meet someone from that background. But ifs a problem to assume that everyone from one particular culture has the same attitudes and experiences. Your assumptions that lead you to pre-judge against others can be harmful. 39

Differences between us are what make life so interesting. So accept the differences between yourself and your friends from different cultures. 40 In detail, ask questions if your friends are open to it, but also learn how to just silently observe and appreciate the differences that make us unique.

1. It is a simple thing, but it's a huge marker of culture!
2. Learning is another great way to understand different cultures.
3. Behaviors, customs, beliefs, and values are also part of your culture.
4. To achieve it, do strike a balance between curiosity and appreciation.
5. So don't do it to others even if you understand their culture really well.
6. The more you learn, the more used you get to respecting cultural differences.

G. Wherever you live, there are probably immigrant communities （侨民团体）with their own customs.

His life has been difficult, with a series of 46 . Yet, he always wears a beautiful smile. You can go to 47 him.”

The student became 48 . He went to call on the old man. The man in a wheelchair 49 him smilingly. “Sir, my teacher said you would answer my question. Could you tell me how you 50 to wear a smile despite all your sufferings?” The man said smilingly, “I’m afraid you've turned to the 51 person. I have never 52 any difficulty so far. My luck has always been good. This is the 53 . How can I teach you how to smile always in difficulty?”

The student got the answer: Here was a person who lived 54 . We must always have gratitude for all we have. Having this 55 will help us accept awful situations gracefully.

China's new "sky train”

China has shown its first maglev line built with permanent magnets (永久磁铁), which engineers claim can keep a “sky train“ afloat even without a power supply. The experimental track, known as the Red Rail, is located in Xingguo County, Jiangxi Province. It uses powerful magnets 56 (produce) a force strong enough to lift a train with 88 passengers into the air, according to a report in the South-China Morning Post.

Unlike most existing maglev 57 (line), the rail operates about 33 feet above the ground. There is no physical contact with the rail as the train moves beneath it silently at a speed of up to 50mph.

The use of permanent magnets means that only a small amount of electricity 58 (need) to start the train. Also, 59 (compare) with a underground, the track is 60 (cheap) to build, according to researchers at Jiangxi University of Science and Technology.

The technological success is possible due to the large quantity of rare earth elements (稀土元素)in China, 61 are needed to make the train’s permanent magnets. Adding rare earth elements to magnets 62 (significant) increases their lifespan. Neodymium, for instance, can reduce the 63 (lose) of magnetism to less than 5 percent in a century. China is home to nearly 40 percent of 64 entire world's known reserves of rare earth elements.

Local transport authorities are currently testing the Red Rail on the half-mile stretch of track in Xingguo, but they are planning to increase this 65              4.7 miles when initial tests are complete.

阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的 短文。

My husband Frank and I lived a frugal （节俭的）life, carrying lunch to work, having no vacations, and staying in. But when it came to our fifteenth wedding anniversary, we decided to "splurge （挥霍）“ this one time.

At last, we walked into a beautiful Italian restaurant for a nice dinner. We ordered wonderful food and even a glass of wine each. Halfway through our very delicious dinner, Frank and I noticed the two diners next to us seemed to be looking for something under their table and all around. The elegantly dressed woman appeared to be in her late seventies, and her much younger male companion looked like her son. The woman kept touching her ear.

I asked whether she had lost an earring. The woman shook her head and looked worried. “My hearing aid,” she said. “My son finally convinced me to buy it this week; ifs so expensive." She then added that her son's eye sight was better than hers but he couldn't find it, either.

No waiters seemed to be helpful, as they were very busy. And the other diners seemed unaware of the woman’s trouble. Frank stood up immediately. “Let me try,“ he offered. "Maybe a fresh pair of eyes will find it." The woman said that it was very small and had the same color as the floor, adding she didn't want to bother Frank. "That's okay, I’ll try." Frank said. Then he bent down and moved a few inches at a time, with his eyes and hands sweeping back and forth.

The woman sat down slowly. Her son kept his eyes focused while Frank's feet moved back and forth under the table. Meanwhile, I stood by their table, running my hand over the tablecloth, shifting the plates, etc.

“Thanks,“ the woman said. “But I'm afraid it's lost forever. Your dinner’s getting cold. Please don't worry." I saw tears forming in her eyes. Soon, her son sank back into his chair, too. But Frank kept looking until one of them thanked him again, and he finally gave up and sat down to eat. Ten minutes later, as we finished our dinner, the mother and son were drinking coffee, silent "I'll take one more look." Frank said.
