Slar panels—als knwn as “phtvltaic” panels—are used t turn sunlight int electricity, Mst slar panels are placed n land in large cllectins called slar farms, But recently peple have begun t explre putting flating slar panels n waler. Because these panels flat, sme peple call them “flatvltacs”.
The idea isn't as unusual as it might sem. After all, any slar panel has t be waterprf, since it will be ut in the rain. There are already several large flatvltaic farms in Asia. On land, s panels are held up by special frames (框架). On the water, fatvtaicis are placed n a flating platfm attached t the bt f a lake r reservir (水库) Flating slar panels cst abut 25% mre than thse placed n land.
The researchers behind the new study lked at 14.5555 reservirs wrldwide. They used cmputer prgams t figure ut hw much electricity culd be prduced yearly by cvering 30% f these reservirs with flating slar panels. The answer was surprisingly large—mre than twice the amunt f energy the United States generates in a year And 10 times as much energy as all the slar pwer currently being generated in the wrld.
Flatvltaics can als help save water by limiting evapratin (蒸发) frm reservirs. The scientists say that slar panels cvering just 30% f the reservirs’ surfaces culd save as much water as 300 millin peple wuld use in a year. There are several ther reasns that make flatvltaics a gd idea. Phtvltaic panels wrk better when they're nt extremely ht. The water helps cl the panels s that they create mre energy.
Flatvltaics aren’t perfect. Cvering t much f a reservir with panels culd affect the plants and animals in the water. The scientists say it will be imprtant t study hw flating panels will affect water in each reservir. Fcusing first n man-made reservirs will avid sme f thse prblems.
28. What is the purpse f paragraph 2?
A. T list slar panels' unusual functins.
B. T shw disadvantages f slar panels n land.
C. T intrduce the wrkability f flating slar panels.
D. T make a cmparisn between different slar panels.
29. Hw did researchers carry ut the new study?
A. By lking at reservirs wrldwide.
B. By making cmputer-aided estimates.
C. By building flatvftaic farms in the US.
D. By prcessing data given by specialists
30. What d we knw abut flating slar panels?
A. They are perfect except fr the high cst.
B. They functin well in extreme ht weather.
C. They will eventually replace phtvltaic panels.
D. They may cause ptential harm t water ecsystem.
31.What is n suitable title fr the text?
A. Flating Slar Panels—Making Energy. Saving Water
B. Flating Slar Panels—A New Way t Cl the Planet
C. Flating Slar Panels: Our Final Chice
D. Flating Slar Panels Take Us Back t Water

ln the lab, mst mice g as far as t take electric shcks in their desperatin t cnsume sugar. Mice aren’t alne. Humans d smething similar. Daily snacking n prcessed fds, recent studies shw, rewires the brain’s reward circuits(回路).
Ashley Gearhardt, a clinical psychlgist at the University f Michigan, argues that highly Prcessed fds, very high in fat and carbhydrate, dn’t exist naturally. “They’re designed by fd scientists t lk a certain way, feel a certain way in yur muth, smell a certain way when yu pen the package.” she says, “Peple aren’t lsing cntrl ver beans.”
In highly prcessed snacks, sugar ften ges tgether with fat-a cmbinatin that culd make such fds even mre addictive. Fr a 2023 study, DeFeliceantni’s team asked 82 peple t snack n either high-fat, high-sugar ygurts r lw-sugar, lw-fat nes fr eight weeks. The scientists discvered nt nly that the first grup’s preference fr the healthier ygurts decreased after the trial but that their brain activatin patterns changed, t. When tasting fatty, sugary milkshakes, they had an increased respnse in their reward circuits. “Highly prcessed fds are cntrlling the brain in a way yu’d see with addictin t drugs,” DeFeliceantni says.
In 2022,Gearhardt and DeFeliccantni published an pinin piece in the jurnal Addictin arguing that highly prcessed fds shuld be classified(分类) as addictive. Hebebrand, a psychiatrist at the University f Duisburg-Essen, hwever, wrries that rushing t classify certain fds as addictive culd let the sugar industry make an easy escape. It may be fllwing “the playbk f the tbacc industry.” After all, there was n clear prf that nictine(尼古丁) was addictive, either: researchers didn’t knw the dsage(剂量) at which it became addictive. As a result, the addictive nature f tbacc was ppsed fr decades. Cnsidering highly prcessed fds’ harmful health effects, Gearhardt argues that it's better t risk misclassifying highly prcessed fds as addictive than t fail t label (贴标签) them as such. “It’s cigarettes all ver again.” She says.
32. What des paragraph 2 suggest?
A. Prcessed fds are tastier than natural nes.
B. Beans are much healthier than prcessed fds.
C. Peple can becme addicted t prcessed fds.
D. The design f prcessed fds takes great effrt.
33.Accrdine t the 2023 study. thse eating high-fat, high-sugar ygurts have ______.
A. decreased respnse t healthy fds in reward system
B. increased likelihd f develping addictin t drugs
C. increased difficulty in activating the brain with drugs
D. decreased interest in highly prcessed snacks
34. What is Hebebrand 's attitude twards classifying sugar ns nddictive?
A. Supprtive. B. Cautius. C. Uncncerned。D. Unclear.
35. What dcs Gearhardt mean by saying “It’s cigarettes all ver again.”?
A. It’s time we labeled tbacc as addictive.
B. The market will be filled with prcessed fds.
C. we shuld classify sugar as addictive befre it’s t late.
D. It’s a mistake t have misclassified cigarettes as addictive.

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。
There yu were, sitting in a classrm, practicing writing letters and wrds. Maybe yu were printing (手写印剧字体) them, r maybe yu were learning cursive (草体). At sme pint, yu prbably asked yurself," Why d I need t knw hw t write when all 1 need is t press the keys n a cmputer?” 36 It als helps yu remember the infrmatin that yu write dwn.
37 Actually, beginner printing is usually very messy, and smetimes we cannt even tell what the letters arc. Als, the shape f each letter can change each time a child tries t write it. But remember that every time a child sees a letter that lks a little different but still has the same name, it helps the child’s brain t learn that letter.
Research has als shwn that if yu wrte smething by hand, yu wuld remember it better than if yu typed it n yur cmputer! Why des this happen? 38 But speed may be the prblem! When we type infrmatin, we tend t type exactly what the teacher is saying. Withut thinking abut it. Writing by hand takes lnger, s we cannt recrd everything the teacher says. When writing, we tend t put things int ur wn wrds r summarize what the teacher says. 39
In summary, writing by hand can help yu learn new things like letters, but it als allws yu t remember infrmatin better than if yu typed it. It des nt matter hw yu write—printing, cursive, abbreviatins (宿写). 40 S, keep writing!
A. That makes things a lt easier.
B. It just matters that yu write by hand.
C. Surely it is quicker t type during a lecture than t write, right?
D. What did yur printing lk like when yu first started t write?
E. In a way, taking ntes by hand is a way f studying while we are learning!
F. Well, in shrt, writing by hand helps yu learn a set f symbls mre easily.
G. When peple write letters, they actively see and feel the letters being written.
