Putting all f these tgether,it seems that mst f us are creating mnsters inside us just by simply talking,thinking and nt putting ur heart ut with the right intentin twards helping smene else.If yu take all yur negative attitudes in ne hand and measure yur need t feel “sunshine”in the ther,yu will
see hw bth these elements really cntradict each ther.

Culd lking thrugh trees be the view t a greener future?Trees replacing the clear glass in yur
windws is nt a wrk f science fictin.It's happening nw.
Frest Prducts Labratry researcher Junyng Zhu tgether with clleagues frm the University f Maryland and University f Clrad has develped a transparent wd material that may be the windw f tmrrw.Researchers fund that transparent wd has the ptential t utperfrm glass currently used in
cnstructin in nearly every way.
While glass is the mst cmmn material used in windw cnstructin,it cmes with quite a few bad cnsequences.Heat easily transfers thrugh glass and amunts t higher energy bills when it escapes during cld weather and purs in when it's warm.Glass prductin used fr cnstructin als cmes with a heavy carbn ftprint.Manufacturing emissins alne are apprximately 25,000 metric tns per year,withut
cnsidering the heavy ftprint f transprting the glass.
The innvatin was develped using wd frm the balsa tree,which is native t Suth and Central America.The team treated balsa wd t an xidizing bath,where the wd is kept in a bleach slutin at rm temperature t remve the light-absrbing substance frm the structure.The wd is then penetrated (注入)with a synthetic plymer called plyvinyl alchl(PVA),creating a prduct that is virtually
transparent.S the transparent wd is created,which is far mre durable and lighter than glass.
Switching t transparent wd culd prve t be cst-efficient as well.It is apprximately five times mre thermally efficient than glass,cutting energy csts.It is made frm a sustainable,renewable resurce
with lw carbn emissins.
With all f these ptential benefits fr cnsumers,manufacturing and the envirnment,the case fr
transparent wd culdn't be clearer.
28.What is the main prblem with glass used in windw cnstructin?
A.It is inefficient in letting heat ut. B.It is incnvenient t transprt.
C.It causes a high eclgical price. D.It scarcely reflects light and heat.
29.What des the underlined part "a bleach slutin"refer t?
A.A way t make clrs fade. B.A liquid t make bjects pale.
C.A cntainer t stre liquids. D.A prcess t slve prblems.
30.What d the researchers prbably agree with?
A.Innvatin is the vitality f scientific husing
B.Things are nt always what they seem.
C.There are mre ways t the wd than ne.
D.There is nthing permanent except change
31.What is the authr's attitude tward transparent wd?
A.Skeptical. B.Ambiguus C.Appreciative. D.Cnservative.

There are sme 7,000 languages spken wrldwide,each unique,using different sunds,vcabularies and structures.Charles the Great said:“T have a secnd language is t have a secnd sul.”This begs the
questin:Des the language we speak shape wh we are?As it turns ut,yes.
In scieties such as the United States r Western Eurpe,self-expressin and language precisin are valued.Asian cultures,n the ther hand,prefer an indirect frm f cmmunicatin.Wrds like"perhaps" and“maybe”are used mre than“yes”r“n”.Americanism takes an infrmal apprach t cmmunicatin. Therefre is OK t refer t a stranger r the bss as "yu".Hwever,the Thai language has 12 frms f the
same prnun,chsing ne depends n status.
Peple wh speak different languages ntice different things,depending n the cnstructs f their mther tngue.Take an accident.In English,it's OK t say:“She brke the glass”But in a language like Spanish,yu'd prbably g with:"The glass brke.”The same incident prduces tw different respnses. English speakers will remember wh's at fault,because their language asks them t,while Spanish speakers are mre likely t remember it was an accident.This has real cnsequences,especially when it cmes t
crime and punishment.
Prfessr Jim Cummins has written extensively n mther tngues.Fr Cummins,the strnger ur hme language,the easier it is fr us t learn thers.Of curse,research als shws that being bilingual (会 两种语言的)gives peple many advantages in life.Linguist Julien Leyre writes that learning anther language develps ur ability t "understand the mental wrld f anther persn,based n the language they
use,and hw that wrld is different frm ur wn."
Our mther tngue is central t hw we think,what we knw and wh we are.Like us,languages are living things that change ver time and must be cared fr t survive.By ding s,we prtect nt just the
linguistic structures r vcabularies we use,but the culture,knwledge and pwer behind them.
32.Why des the authr mentin"Americanism"and"the Thai language"in Paragraph 2?
A.T tell the cultural differences between them.
B.T indicate a language is a guide t a culture.
C.T stress American expressins are infrmal.
D.T reveal a language is assciated with status.
33.What is English speakers'respnse t an accident?
— —
A.They will seek blame. B.They will punish thers.
C.They will avid respnsibility. D.They will draw a lessn frm it.
34.What des Julien Leyre think abut bilinguals?
A.They enjy a mre clrful life. B.They can remain mentally healthy
C.They find it easier t learn a language D.They can gain insight int thers'minds
35.What can be the best title fr the text?
A.Hw d languages differ? B.Will yur language be extinct?
C.Why des ur mther tngue matter? D.Shuld we speak a secnd language?

Music influences yur emtins.In turn,yur emtins influence yur behavir.One f these is yur
fd intake.(36) What des science say abut this subject?
Researchers at the University f Arkansas studied hw music influences peple when they eat in a restaurant.Fr the study,they used fur types f music:jazz,classical,rck,and hip-hp.Their results shwed that peple had mre appetite when they listened t jazz music while they ate.(37) This has a lt t d with emtins.Fr instance,when yu listen t music with harmnic rhythms like jazz,yu feel
happier.This increases yur appetite
Hwever,anther study published in Psychlgical Reprts suggests it isn't nly increased appetite that causes peple t eat mre.(38) A mre stimuli-filled envirnment makes yu eat mre.In fact,they tend t urge yu n t eat and even"encurage"yu t eat faster.On the ther hand,if the atmsphere in the restaurant is relaxing,yu're likely t feel mre relaxed and spend mre time enjying yurself.Fr this
reasn,yu'll tend t eat less.
Besides,the study cnducted by the Jurnal f the Academy suggests that the vlume f music can als have an effect n hw yu eat.Mre specifically,the study states that,with lw-vlume music,yu eat better because yu make healthier chices.On the ther hand,the study claims that music at high vlume increases
stimulatin and stress.(39)
Fr this reasn,restaurants shuld cnsider the fact when thinking abut the ptimizatin f their prducts and services.(40) They equip themselves with the technlgy needed t prvide memrable
experiences thrugh music,greatly strengthening their relatinship with the custmer.
A.Des music influence hw yu eat?
B.Being in a rush t eat als plays a part
C.Des yur emtin bst yur appetite?
D.Hwever,they had less appetite when listening t hip-hp
E.In fact,many catering establishments have already taken actin.
F.This culd prve t be quite an interesting cncept fr restaurant
G.This means yu're mre likely t rder cmfrt fd r ther unhealthy ptins

“Well,get ready,”he urged.“Here cmes anther ne.”The sun was ht n ur backs.My clthes were
already sticking t me,and sweat dripped dwn ur faces.A fly buzzed arund my head.I remembered what
Paulie had said and sat perfectly still as the new crab clamped nt the fish.But as Paulie scted frward n his belly t lwer the net,he kncked a pebble ff the dck and scared that crab away,t.We thught abut the big pt waiting and Dad drpping the crabs int the spicy,biling water.They wuld turn a beautiful bright red after a few mments,and we'd have a crab feast,cracking the shells and pulling ut the sweet,
white meat.We had t keep trying.
The sun began t set.We culdn't see int the water anymre."Remember t get the bucket with the spare bait,”I reminded him,slumping alng with the net dragging behind me.Suddenly,Paulie grabbed my arm.“Listen,”he whispered.Nises came frm the bucket Paulie was carrying.There,in the bucket,was a muntain f beautiful blue crabs fighting ver ur extra fish.We raced t give Dad the crabs.“Wha!”he
said.“Yu caught a lt!”I lked at Paulie.“Yes!”we muthed silently t each ther with huge grins.
