Restaurants, cafes and the like are fr eating and drinking, right?
That’s a n-brainer, yu say? That’s yur natural reactin, I’d say. Nw, think. Rewind yur mind. What d yu recall? Aren’t restaurants and cafes the new temples f learning?
Fr yungsters, trendy cafes are the new meeting pints, jint-study centers. What yu witness is small grups reading-writing, eating-sipping, brwsing-dwnlading, cpying-pasting, banding-bnding. Yungsters are at it day after day, as if there’s n tmrrw, as if they are in a race against time t uplad as much knwledge as pssible int their brains. It wasn’t like this befre. Previus generatins f students wuld visit cafes fr cffee, tea, sft drinks r snacks, maybe share a bit f gd-natured jkes with their ”gang“ members.
Fr exam-related study, there were quiet areas in city libraries r the cllege library.
Back in my hmetwn during the late ‘80s and the early ‘90s, a handful f my classmates and I wuld gather at ur hmes, taking turns, in the run-up t key exams. During such ”night-uts“, we wuld study, exchange ntes, share insights, brainstrm t slve tricky prblems, anticipate test questins, and prepare accrdingly. Nt infrequently, we wuld discuss sprts events, mvies, film stars and, f curse, girls.
Digital-age kids d it differently nw. Why? I can nly guess. The fremst reasn is free Wi-Fi and all that it ffers. The envirnment at institutinal libraries may nt be t millennials’(千禧一代的)liking. Or, is it big pcket mney r salary earned frm part-time jbs? Maybe, just a generatinal thing, a lifestyle trend, r the result f the single-child system.
One f my yunger clleagues, a business jurnalist, last mnth married her childhd sweetheart, a heart surgen, and, she tld me, it all started back at schl. S, the restaurants and bars prmte real-life interactins, s imprtant when addictin t nline scial media is seen making yuth unsciable.
28．What fact des the authr emphasize cncerning trendy cafes?
A．They are digitally pwered.B．They replace cllege libraries.
C．They are specifically designed.D．They becme teenage hanguts.
29．What des the underlined wrd ”it“ in Paragraph 6 refer t?
A．Exam-related study.B．The use f cmputers.
C．Mvie-themed discussin.D．Scial cmmunicatin.
30．Which f the fllwing best describes restaurants and bars in the last paragraph?
A．Old-fashined in style.B．Helpful fr scial interactins.
C．Luxurius in decratin.D．Cnvenient fr use.
31．What is a suitable title fr the text?

Yung male African elephants shw calmer behavir when lder, mre experienced male elephants are arund, accrding t a new study. Experts say the discvery culd help t prtect bth elephants and humans.
Researchers frm the University f Exeter, in suth-west England and the charity Elephants fr Africa studied the behavir f 281 male elephants (knwn as bulls) in Btswana’s Makgadikgadi Pans Natinal Park ver three years. At between 12 and 15 years ld, bull elephants leave the herd where they grw up and then spend much f their time either alne r with ther males. Females, in cntrast, stay with the herd they were brn int.
T see if there were patterns in the way males behaved after leaving their herd, the researchers divided them int fur grups: tw grups f adlescents (aged 10-15 r 16-20 years ld), and tw grups f adults (aged 21-25 r ver 26 years ld). They fund that the yunger males were mre likely t be aggressive twards nn-elephant targets, such as ther animals and vehicles when there were fewer lder adult bulls t mix with. Cnnie Allen frm the University f Exeter, wh led the study, suggests this may be because the yung bulls n their wn are less experienced at identifying threats t their safety. That means they are mre likely t becme fearful, which makes them attack.
Allen said the research revealed an imprtant rle fr lder male elephants wh have ften been thught f as nt very useful in elephant sciety. This mistaken belief has led wildlife authrities t allw sme hunting f lder males, reducing their numbers and their pssible calming influence n yunger bulls. In the area where the elephants live, 71% f peple said they felt that elephants threaten their safety. The research suggests that having mre lder males culd help with the prblem.
32．Hw d bull elephants differ frm female elephants?
A．They leave the herd.
B．They stay with the herd.
C．They behave vilently.
D．They are mre independent.
33．Why d yunger male elephants attack peple r vehicles?
A．They prtect their herd frm danger.
B．They are t yung t recgnize threats.
C．They are frightened by nn-elephant targets.
D．They are nt prtected well by lder elephants.
34．Which statement will the authr prbably agree with?
A．Older male elephants are less imprtant in elephant sciety.
B．It is reasnable t allw sme hunting f lder male elephants.
C．Older male elephants can help reduce elephant attack.
D．Peple’s safety is threatened by lder male elephants.
35．What is the best title fr the text?
A．Old Elephants Threaten Peple’s Safety
B．Old Male Elephants Keep Yung Calm
C．Yung Elephants Are Mre Aggressive
D．Bull Elephants Tend t Leave the Herd

Restaurants, cafes and the like are fr eating and drinking, right?
That’s a n-brainer, yu say? That’s yur natural reactin, I’d say. Nw, think. Rewind yur mind. What d yu recall? Aren’t restaurants and cafes the new temples f learning?
Fr yungsters, trendy cafes are the new meeting pints, jint-study centers. What yu witness is small grups reading-writing, eating-sipping, brwsing-dwnlading, cpying-pasting, banding-bnding. Yungsters are at it day after day, as if there’s n tmrrw, as if they are in a race against time t uplad as much knwledge as pssible int their brains. It wasn’t like this befre. Previus generatins f students wuld visit cafes fr cffee, tea, sft drinks r snacks, maybe share a bit f gd-natured jkes with their ”gang“ members.
Fr exam-related study, there were quiet areas in city libraries r the cllege library.
Back in my hmetwn during the late ‘80s and the early ‘90s, a handful f my classmates and I wuld gather at ur hmes, taking turns, in the run-up t key exams. During such ”night-uts“, we wuld study, exchange ntes, share insights, brainstrm t slve tricky prblems, anticipate test questins, and prepare accrdingly. Nt infrequently, we wuld discuss sprts events, mvies, film stars and, f curse, girls.
Digital-age kids d it differently nw. Why? I can nly guess. The fremst reasn is free Wi-Fi and all that it ffers. The envirnment at institutinal libraries may nt be t millennials’(千禧一代的)liking. Or, is it big pcket mney r salary earned frm part-time jbs? Maybe, just a generatinal thing, a lifestyle trend, r the result f the single-child system.
One f my yunger clleagues, a business jurnalist, last mnth married her childhd sweetheart, a heart surgen, and, she tld me, it all started back at schl. S, the restaurants and bars prmte real-life interactins, s imprtant when addictin t nline scial media is seen making yuth unsciable.
28．What fact des the authr emphasize cncerning trendy cafes?
A．They are digitally pwered.B．They replace cllege libraries.
C．They are specifically designed.D．They becme teenage hanguts.
29．What des the underlined wrd ”it“ in Paragraph 6 refer t?

Yung male African elephants shw calmer behavir when lder, mre experienced male elephants are arund, accrding t a new study. Experts say the discvery culd help t prtect bth elephants and humans.
Researchers frm the University f Exeter, in suth-west England and the charity Elephants fr Africa studied the behavir f 281 male elephants (knwn as bulls) in Btswana’s Makgadikgadi Pans Natinal Park ver three years. At between 12 and 15 years ld, bull elephants leave the herd where they grw up and then spend much f their time either alne r with ther males. Females, in cntrast, stay with the herd they were brn int.
T see if there were patterns in the way males behaved after leaving their herd, the researchers divided them int fur grups: tw grups f adlescents (aged 10-15 r 16-20 years ld), and tw grups f adults (aged 21-25 r ver 26 years ld). They fund that the yunger males were mre likely t be aggressive twards nn-elephant targets, such as ther animals and vehicles when there were fewer lder adult bulls t mix with. Cnnie Allen frm the University f Exeter, wh led the study, suggests this may be because the yung bulls n their wn are less experienced at identifying threats t their safety. That means they are mre likely t becme fearful, which makes them attack.
Allen said the research revealed an imprtant rle fr lder male elephants wh have ften been thught f as nt very useful in elephant sciety. This mistaken belief has led wildlife authrities t allw sme hunting f lder males, reducing their numbers and their pssible calming influence n yunger bulls. In the area where the elephants live, 71% f peple said they felt that elephants threaten their safety. The research suggests that having mre lder males culd help with the prblem.
32．Hw d bull elephants differ frm female elephants?
A．They leave the herd.
B．They stay with the herd.
C．They behave vilently.
D．They are mre independent.
33．Why d yunger male elephants attack peple r vehicles?
A．They prtect their herd frm danger.
B．They are t yung t recgnize threats.
C．They are frightened by nn-elephant targets.
D．They are nt prtected well by lder elephants.
34．Which statement will the authr prbably agree with?
A．Older male elephants are less imprtant in elephant sciety.
B．It is reasnable t allw sme hunting f lder male elephants.
C．Older male elephants can help reduce elephant attack.
D．Peple’s safety is threatened by lder male elephants.
35．What is the best title fr the text?
A．Old Elephants Threaten Peple’s Safety
B．Old Male Elephants Keep Yung Calm
C．Yung Elephants Are Mre Aggressive
D．Bull Elephants Tend t Leave the Herd
