Museum lets visitors walk in the shoes of a police officer

Police shows on TV are filled with high-speed car chases and crimes solved in a few minutes. But that’s not a typical day for a real-life police officer. To get a more accurate picture, head to the National Law Enforcement Museum in Washington. Exhibits there invite visitors to use their senses of sight, hearing, touch and smell to gather information the way police do.

Let’s look at a few exhibits.

K-9 Units

See a video of how dogs are trained to join K-9 Units. Test your ability to smell and identify various scents (气味). Learn which kinds of dogs are better at tracking bad persons while others are better at sniffing out dangerous goods.

The Web of Law Enforcement

You’ll quickly learn that crime-solving is a team effort, not only within one department, but among organizations across the country. Inspection Service is just one of the law enforcement groups helping local police when needed. For example, six organizations worked together on a national park graffiti (涂鸦) case.

Five Communities

Every community is different. Learn how the needs and challenges of five communities are being dealt with. These communities goals are to develop programs, while increasing trust between local people and police. What might work in your neighborhood? There’s a place for visitors to share their thoughts.

The Training Simulator

Those aged 12 and older can try the same training scenarios (方案) and equipment used in professional law enforcement classes in which police try to resolve difficult situations. Short videos test participants’ abilities to observe accurately and think quickly before reacting.

The exercises give an understanding of what officers face on a daily basis.

“Many kids first think it’s like a video game,” said Alan Davis, an educator and New York police officer. “They soon realize that real-life decision-making in a second isn’t easy, and they freeze. For real police there are no second chances.”

21. Which exhibit focuses on police dogs?

A. K-9 Units. B. Five Communities.

C. The Training Simulator. D. The Web of Law Enforcement.

22. What does The Web of Law Enforcement show?

A. The problems in communities.

B. The dangers of being a police officer.

C. How teamwork matters in solving a case.

D. How a policeman makes a decision instantly.

23. How may kids feel about the short video tests after taking part in them?

A. They are surprising. B. They are difficult to understand.

C. They are the same as video games. D. They are not real-life experiences at all.

B

It is common to see most live streamers sitting in front of a desk in a well-decorated room. But Zeng Qinghuan, a 30-year old from Xinhua County in Loudi, Hunan, has turned her whole village into a live streaming set. Her goal is to use e-commerce to help her people live a better life.

Known as “Xiangmei Xinbao” on Douyin, Zeng now has more than 3 million followers. One of her videos about traditional ways of planting and harvesting rice has attracted more than 300,000 followers.

Zeng used to study fashion design and has worked in some big cities before. In 2019 she returned to her village to care for her sick grandmother. She then found that she could build a career there—by being a live streamer with the help of her cousin.

At the beginning, she didn’t make any money. Zeng’s parents didn’t give her any support until she could stand on her own feet and help people sell their products. She has now sold local agricultural products worth tens of millions of yuan, like fermented tofu, preserved pork and dried sweet potatoes.

“I’m a daughter of the great mountains. I can also be a contributor to rural development in these new times,” she said.

Rural revitalization (振兴) is a key part of China’s 14th Five-Year Plan (2021-25). Zeng hopes her experience can encourage more young people to return to their rural hometowns and start their own businesses. In 2021, after she became a deputy (代表) of the Loud Municipal People’s Congress, she put forward a proposal to ensure that “each village has one, product and one live streaming host of its own”. She plans to help cultivate 100 social media influencers from her county within three years, and two villages have taken part in the project, “I believe that the rural areas will become a big stage, and being a farmer will be seen as a respectable job too.” said Zeng.

24. What do we know about Zeng’s live streaming career?

A. It was encouraged by her sick grandmother.

B. It brought her a fortune as soon as it was started.

C. It was a great success with the help of her parents.

D. It inspired more local villagers to follow.

25. What is Zeng going to do from the last paragraph?

A. Invite more young people to her hometown.

B. Train more social media influencers in her county.

C. Expand her business to make more money.

D. Produce more agricultural products to help the farmers.

26. Which of the following best describes Zeng?

A. Down-to-earth and ambitious. B. Responsible and modest.

C. Gifted and faithful. D. Caring and fashionable

27. What may be the best title of the passage?

A. A way of ordinary people’s better life

B. A travel path to the country areas

C. An approach of a village girl’s success

D. A road to Rural revitalization

C

Every year from May to July, tens of thousands of Tibetan antelopes from regions in Qinghai, Tibet autonomous region, and Xinjiang autonomous region make their way to Hoh Xil (可可西里) nature reserve in Qinghai to give birth. The mothers and newborn Tibetan antelopes make the return trip around August.

This journey is rather tough. More than 90 percent of the female animals give birth every year, but only about 30 percent of the newborns survive. Many of them die on the return journey, unable to withstand the predators (捕食性动物) and disease. The government has adopted some high-tech methods to assist in the safe return of newborn antelopes and protect the species.

In 2013, with the help of the BeiDou Navigation Satellite System, researchers discovered and confirmed the largest Tibetan antelope “birth room” on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, and they mapped the migration routes of Tibetan antelopes. Since late 2018, a solar-powered drone has been used to monitor the migration herds. “The solar-powered drone has a long flying time with high-resolution cameras, which gives us a new understanding of many specific routes during the migration of Tibetan antelopes,” said Wu Xiaomin, an expert from the Shanxi Institute of Zoology. “For example, the nomads (牧民) put fences on the grassland to protect the grass, but sometimes these hinder the normal activity of the Tibetan antelopes.”

To clear the way for the Tibetan antelopes, the government of the Tibet has taken action in recent years to give more protected space to wildlife. They relocate nomads from places at altitudes above 4,800 meters to other places in the region.

Known as “plateau elves” (精灵),Tibetan antelopes have adapted to the unique and severe natural conditions of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. According to Wu, the Tibetan antelope is recognized as an important indicator species of the natural ecosystem.

The population of Tibetan antelopes has grown. “With a recorded low population of fewer than 20,000 in Qinghai, the number has now reached over 70,000,” said former Qinghai governor Xin Changxing at an event to mark World Environment Day.

28. What can we learn about Tibetan antelopes?

A. They travel to Hoh Xil to find partners.

B. Only 30 percent of them give birth every year.

C. Their yearly trip to Hoh Xil takes about one month.

D. The newborns are threatened by diseases and predators.

29. What is the solar-powered drone mainly used for?

A. Locating the Tibetan antelope “birth room”.

B. Recording Tibetan antelopes’ daily activities.

C. Watching over the migrating Tibetan antelopes.

D. Mapping the migration routes of Tibetan antelopes.

30. What does the underlined word “hinder” in paragraph 4 probably mean?

A. Pay attention to. B. Cause trouble for.

C. Take control of. D. Play an important role in.

31. How does the government protect Tibetan antelopes?

A. By expanding the area of reserve.

B. By driving away their predators.

C. By encouraging nomads to protect them.

D. By relocating them to a protected place.

D

If you want to disturb the car industry, you’d better have a few billion dollars: Mom-and-pop carmakers are unlikely to beat the biggest car companies. But in agriculture, small farmers can get the best of the major players. By connecting directly with customers, and by responding quickly to changes in the markets as well as in the ecosystems, small farmers can keep one step ahead of the big guys. As the co-founder of the National Young Farmers Coalition (NYFC, 美国青年农会) and a family farmer myself. I have a front-row seat to the innovations among small farmers that are transforming the industry.

For example, take the Quick Cut Greens Harvester, a tool developed just a couple of years ago by a young farmer, Jonathan Dysinger, in Tennessee, with a small loan from a local Slow Money group. It enables small-scale farmers to harvest 175 pounds of green vegetables per hour — a huge improvement over harvesting just a few dozen pounds by hand — suddenly making it possible for the little guys to compete with large farms of California. Before the tool came out, small farmers couldn’t touch the price per pound offered by California farms. But now, with the combination of a better price point and a generally fresher product, they can stay in business.

The sustainable success of small farmers, though, won’t happen without fundamental changes to the industry. One crucial factor is secure access to land. Competition from investors, developers, and established large farmers makes owning one’s own land unobtainable for many new farmers. From 2004 to 2013, agricultural land values doubled, and they continue to rise in many regions.

Another challenge for more than a million of the most qualified farm workers and managers is a non-existent path to citizenship — the greatest barrier to building a farm of their own. With farmers over the age of 65 outnumbering farmers younger than 35 by six to one, and with two-thirds of the nation’s farmland in need of a new farmer, we must clear the path for talented people willing to grow the nation’s food.

There are solutions that could light a path toward a more sustainable and fair farm economy, but farmers can’t clumsily put them together before us. We at the NYFC need broad support as we urge Congress to increase farmland conservation, as we push for immigration reform, and as we seek policies that will ensure the success of a diverse and ambitious next generation of farms from all backgrounds. With a new farm bill to be debated in Congress, consumers must take a stand with young farmers.

32. The author mentions car industry at the beginning of the passage to introduce ________.

A. the progress made in car industry

B. a special feature of agriculture

C. a trend of development in agriculture

D. the importance of investing in car industry

33. What does the author want to illustrate with the example in paragraph 2?

A. Loans to small local farmers are necessary.

B. Technology is vital for agricultural development.

C. Competition between small and big farms is fierce.

D. Small farmers may gain some advantages over big ones.

34. What is the difficulty for those new farmers?

A. To gain more financial aid. B. To hire good farm managers.

C. To have farms of their own. D. To win old farmers’ support.

35. What should farmers do for a more sustainable and fair farm economy?

A. Seek support beyond NYFC. B. Expand farmland conservation.

C. Become members of NYFC. D. Invest more to improve technology.

第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分）

根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。

Being “outdoorsy” can stir up images of big beautiful national parks, snowy slopes or thick forests.    36   . They don’t require the time, money or physical mobility of a big trip. Here are some steps you can take to get closer to nature.

Think of time in nature as a “multivitamin” — it’s best to take it every day.    37   . If you’re spending hours staring at a computer screen, you might feel pretty exhausted afterward. But if you get breaks or even micro restorative moments by getting outside, you recover some energy to use that mental muscle so you can do things that are hard to do.

Find the people who enjoy the same activities. It takes some of the pressure off trying to explore the outdoors alone.    38    In a world where we’re constantly flooded with images of what an “outdoorsy person” should look like, finding your people might feel like a challenge.

   39   . You can bring the outdoors into your world. We are a part of nature, and nature is a part of us-regardless of where we are.

Need a quick break from your “work screen time” for some “fun screen time”? There’s a nature fix for that: Check out the Find That Lizard game on your phone, where you have to find a lizard camouflaged (伪装) in its natural environment.    40    You can barbecue in your yard or the park, or open a window to get some fresh air. These are great options if you’re living in a city, or if you’re on a budget.

A. Trying to get off screens?

B. Needing a low-budget outdoor break?

C. So nature is actually what you need to function well.

D. But smaller moments in nature have been just as valuable.

E. It’s also an important way to stay safe in more remote areas.

F. Getting your daily amount of nature is vital to your well-being.

G. Remember, you don’t have to be outdoors to experience nature.

第二节（满分25分）

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。

Sam was a junior high school student. He lived in a community in Charlotte and usually had little exposure to country life. So much of what he knew about plants came from text-books. Sam was a kind-hearted person. He longed for a chance to explore nature and he wanted to do his part to beautify the world.

Finally, the opportunity came. On Arbor Day (植树节), his class organized a trip to a local village to plant trees. Sam was excited about it and couldn’t wait to tell his mom the good news. So the next day, Sam and his mom went to buy some tools for planting trees, including a shovel (铲), a bucket, gloves and so on.

On the day of the event, Sam and his classmates arrived early at the starting point. It was a beautiful day and everyone looked particularly happy. With the tools in hand, Sam got into the bus with everyone else and headed off to their destination.

As soon as they reached the village, all the students were divided into three teams by their teacher. One team was responsible for planting the trees, one team for shovelling the soil and one team for watering the trees. At the teacher’s command, everyone started to do their job.

However, it was the first time that many of the students had taken part in planting trees, so they had no idea about how to start. Of course, Sam was one of them. Fortunately, their teacher was a middle-aged man from the countryside who had some knowledge of planting trees. In order to set an example to the students, the teacher started to plant trees himself. After watching the teacher plant the trees, everyone also became busy. Before long, they planted hundreds of trees. Sam watched very carefully, not wanting to miss any of the details. Finally, Sam learned how to plant trees by himself and felt happy.
