When my son first began competing in school chess tournaments, I often chatted with other parents. Occasionally, I would ask if they played chess themselves. Normally, the reply was no. When I volunteered that I was learning to play, their tone was cheerfully joking, 揋ood luck with that!擨f this game is so good, why are adults ignoring it? Seeing someone playing smart phone games, I preferred to say, 揥hy are you having your kids do chess while you play?”
Sure, we parents had work to do, work that helped pay for the lessons our kids were enjoying. But I was
also wondering if we were sending an unnoticeable message that learning was for the young. During one tournament, I saw a group of parents playing chess! Just then, a group of kids passed me 揥hy are adults learning chess?? One asked, in an apparently joking tone.
I was tired of sitting on the sidelines. I wanted in, and that is why I got a membership card and started
throwing myself in.揈arly on,I was nervous, even the master can sometimes play badly, ? as one Grandmaster put it 揳 fan never? . And a fan I was. It was three hours of concentration and thinking with my phone off. It felt like a gym where I was trained to solve problems with focus, memory, logic, and occasional headaches.
And of course hours of absence of digital devices would never be no good for thinking sharply.

Our planet quakes thousands of times a year, but we still can抰 predict exactly when and where earthquakes will strike. What if animals? odd behavior could warn us?
Researchers have reviewed hundreds of reports on pre-quake abnormal animal behaviors, but more were
just anecdotes. Geologist Jim Berkland counted newspaper ads looking for runaway cats and dogs. On October 13, 1989, he told a newspaper reporter a big quake would strike in a week. Four days later, the Loma Prieta mega-quake hit! But the scientific community still rejected Berkland抯 theory. He didn抰 document every prediction, so nobody could measure his accuracy rate.
Actual scientific evidence has to be repeatable. And a connection between a cause and an effect has to be
shown to be stronger than random chance through careful experimentation and data collection. California researchers in the 1970s happened to have built controlled habitats to monitor the wheel-running activity of pocket mice. These habitats happened to be in an active earthquake area. Then the 1971 San Fernando earthquake struck nearby. The researchers checked their data and found no big changes in how long the
animals ran in their wheels or stayed underground before the earthquake activity. What might the next

experiment show?
Researchers from 150 universities worldwide are working on a new study called the ICARUS project.
The project tracks many small animal species such as birds, bats, and turtles for the purpose of scientific research. One group of researchers is looking for possible connections between animal behavior and earthquakes. If they find a reliable connection, this could save hundreds of thousands of human lives. ICARUS aims to power an app that will give people hours to get to safety.
However, not everyone is hopeful. Geologist Wendy Bohon said that ICARUS is doing some 揷ool
things,? but she knows animal behavior is hard to pin down. 揗y cat could act crazy before an earthquake,? she says. 揃ut it also acts crazy if somebody uses the can opener.”
28. What does the underlined word 揳necdotes? mean in paragraph 2?
A. Real-life news stories.
B. Random individual studies.
C. Repeated scientific reports.
D. Unproved personal accounts.
29. Why was Berkland抯 theory rejected by the scientific community?
A. He used unreliable data from newspaper ads.
B. His document wasn抰 consistent with his theory.
C. His study didn抰 include enough animal samples.
D. He failed to prove the accuracy of his predictions.
30. What is the ultimate goal of the ICARUS project?
A. To provide accurate pre-quake warnings.
B. To develop an app to call for help during quakes.
C. To seek worldwide cooperations in quake prediction.
D. To find connections between animal behaviors and quakes.
31. What is Wendy Bohon抯 attitude towards the ICARUS project?
A. Disapproving. B. Doubtful. C. Intolerant. D. Unclear

According to the Solar Energy Industry Association, the number of solar panels installed（安装）has grown rapidly in the past decade, and it has to grow even faster to meet climate goals. But all of that growth
will take up a lot of space, and though more and more people accept the concept of solar energy, few like
第 6 页 共 12 页
large solar panels to be installed near them.
Solar developers want to put up panels as quickly and cheaply as possible, so they haven't given much thought to what they put under them. Often, they'll end up filling the area with small stones and using
chemicals to control weeds. The result is that many communities, especially in fanning regions, see solar
farms as destroyers of the soil.
揝olar projects need to be good neighbors," says Jordan Macknick, the head of the Innovative Site Preparation and Impact Reductions on the Environment(InSPIRE) project. "They need to be protectors of the land and contribute to the agricultural economy." InSPIRE is investigating practical approaches to ： "low-impact" solar development, which focuses on establishing and operating solar farms in a way that is
kinder to the land. One of the easiest low-impact solar strategies is providing habitat for pollinators（传粉昆 虫）．
Habitat loss, pesticide use, and climate change have caused dramatic declines in pollinator populations over the past couple of decades, which has damaged the U.S. agricultural economy. Over 28 states have passed laws related to pollinator habitat protection and pesticide use. Conservation organizations put out pollinator-friendliness guidelines for home gardens, businesses, schools, cities-and now there are guidelines for solar farms.
Over the past few years, many solar farm developers have transformed the space under their solar panels
into a shelter for various kinds of pollinators, resulting in soil improvement and carbon reduction. "These pollinator-friendly solar farms can have a valuable impact on everything that's going on in the landscape," says Macknick.
32. What do solar developers often ignore?
A. The decline in the demand for solar energy.
B. The negative impact of installing solar panels.
C. The rising labor cost of building solar farms.
D. The most recent advances in solar technology
33. What does InSPIRE aim to do?
A. Improve the productivity of local farms.
B. Invent new methods for controlling weeds.
C. Make solar projects environmentally friendly.
D. Promote the use of solar energy in rural areas.

34. What is the purpose of the laws mentioned in paragraph 4?
A. To conserve pollinators. B. To restrict solar development.
C. To diversify the economy. D. To ensure the supply of energy
35. Which of the following is the best title for the text?
A. Pollinators: To Leave or to Stay B. Solar Energy: Hope for the Future
C. InSPIRE: A Leader in Agriculture D. Solar Farms: A New Development

If you travel to nearly any Chinese city in the summertime, you will see people, mostly men wearing

where Liu Bang and Xiang Yu had a life-or-death war. The war was so influential that 搕he Chu River and the
Han Boundary? has become a metaphor(隐喻)referring to any boundary between two opposing armies. When
the Chinese people today see this name on the board, the battle scenes come to their mind, as though they are surrounded by thick smoke, able to hear the beating of war drums. ____40___

Dear Peter,
How is it going? Learning from your last E-mail what you are doing research into Chinese students doing housework, so I抦 writing to tell you something about myself.
Busy as I am with my schoolwork as a senior three student, I still try to do as many housework as I can.
During workday, I keep my room tidy and clean, make it comfortable to live in. I also take out the rubbish every morning when I leave school. On weekends, I wash my clothes and cook food.
In my opinion, it is high necessary for senior three students to do housework. After all, it was our
responsibility to share housework as a family member. Besides, doing housework provide a chance to relieve us from the pressure of study.
I hope it can be helpful to my research.
