It was just after 17:00 n a mid-September evening at a histrical Church in Harlem, New Yrk City. Mstly the lw-incme black neighbrhd sat at dining tables. In frnt f them was a menu listing three curses, which they nly saw n TV. Each dish was prepared with “leftver” ingredients（食材）, ffered free f charge and placed alngside a blue card that read "yu are lved” in hand-written script.
This-is-ne f 14 cmmunity centers created arund the wrld in cities like Milan, Paris, Mérida, Lima, Sydney and nw New Yrk thrugh three-Michelin starred chef Massim Bttura’s Fd fr Sul prject. He started the prject in 2016 with his wife, Lara Gilmre, t help fight the glbal prblem f fd waste-by using ingredients that might therwise be thrwn away by suppliers- and t give scially and ecnmically vulnerable peple access t high quality meals.
Partnering with architects, artists and cmmunity leaders, the prject is transfrming spaces, which are nt fully taken advantage f, such as churches and even a histrical hme int intentinally designed cultural centers equipped with kitchens, dining rms and ther facilities that help create a sense f well-being, cnnectin and inclusin.
When I asked Bttura why he created such thughtful. meals within beautifully appinted spaces fr the lw-incme, he tld me that everyne deserves respect and beauty-and f curse, healthy fd. “They cme in and are cmpletely lst because they’re nt used t cming int beautiful places, like this. But nce they’re here, they realize that this place is their place. It’s nt my place,” he said.
Bttura’s philsphy is ne that cmes frm the heart. T-shirts wrm by vlunteers at his cmmunity centers say “cking is an act f lve”, and he appraches the fd served there with as much care as he des at his restaurants — “prbably even mre”, he said since the diners are extremely stressed and need healthy fd t feel better. Bttura insists that it’s imprtant t change the language arund the fd served in his cmmunity centers.
24. Why des the authr describe such a scene in the first paragraph?
A. T intrduce Bttura’s prject. B. T shw the appeal f the dishes.
C. T emphasize the warm atmsphere. D. T explain hw the event is rganized.
25. What des the underlined wrd “vulnerable” in paragraph 2 mean?
A. Privileged. B. Independent.C. Cnservative. D. Disadvantaged.
26. Which f the fllwing best describes Massim Bttura?
A. Skilled and strict. B. Caring and cnsiderate.
C. Wealthy and humrus. D. Ecnmical and influential.
27. What fundamental philsphy. des Massim Bttura express?
A. Respect and beauty are fr all. B. Beautiful places inspire respect.
C. Cking shuld be a prfessin. D. Cmmunity centers bring peple tgether.

In the late 1990s, tw psychlgy researchers, were talking abut hw the female scientists in their lab respnded differently t stress than the men did. The men wuld disappear int their ffices; the wmen wuld bring ckies t lab meetings and bnd ver cffee. Frget fight-r-flight, they jked. The wmen were tending and befriending.
The jke stuck in the mind f ne f the wmen, researcher Laura Cusin Klein. Psychlgy research has suggested that stress leads t aggressin, but that wasn’t her experience. Wmen were mre likely t want t talk with smene abut their stress, spend time with their lved nes, r channel their stress int caring fr thers. She wndered if it was pssible that science had gtten stress wrng.
Klein dug deeper int the science, and she made the surprising discvery that 90 percent f the published research n stress was cnducted n males. S Klein studied the scial side f stress, especially in wmen. Lking at bth animal and human research, she fund evidence that stress can increase caring, cperatin, and cmpassin（同情）.
While the tend-and-befriend thery began as an investigatin int the female respnse t stress, it quickly expanded t include men. In times f stress, bth men and wmen have been shwn t becme mre trusting, generus, and willing t prtect thers.
The tend-and-befriend thery desn’t say that stress always leads t caring—stress can indeed make us angry and defensive. It simply says that stress can make peple mre caring. And when we care fr thers, it activates systems f ur brain that prduce feelings f hpe and curage.
I wrte my bk The Upside f Stress with that purpse in mind: t help yu discver yur wn strength and cmpassin. Seeing the upside f stress is nt abut deciding whether stress is either gd r bad. It’s abut hw chsing t see the gd in stress can help yu meet the challenges in yur life. Tending and befriending is ne f the best ways t d this, and t transfrm yur wn stress int a catalyst（催化剂）fr curage and cnnectin.
28. What des the jke in paragraph I shw?
A. Male scientists are smarter than female scientists.
B. Female scientists are friendlier than male scientists.
C. Men tend t seek a temprary escape frm pressure.
D. Wmen care fr each ther when they are under stress.
29. Why did Laura keep the jke in her mind?
A. It didn’t fit with her life experience. B. It had the same tpic as her new bk.
C. It went against previus psychlgy research. D. It indicated the inequalities between wmen and men.
30. What d we knw abut the tend-and-befriend thery?
A. It is applicable t bth men and wmen. B. It suggests stress always leads t caring.
C. It prves the fight-r-flight respnse wrng. D. It shws men are mre defensive than wmen.
31. What des the authr’s bk aim t d?
A. Prvide evidence fr her research.
B. Explain the fight-r-flight respnse.
C. Make suggestins n hw t respnd t stress psitively.
D. Demnstrate wmen’s and men’s different respnses t stress.
D
It was lng therized that peple make decisins based n integrated glbal calculatins that ccur within the frntal crtex（额叶皮层）f the brain, which is cnsidered the seat f higher-rder thinking. Hwever, Yale researchers have fund that three distinct brain circuits frm the frntal crtex cnnecting t different brain regins are invlved in making gd decisins, bad nes, and determining which f thse past chices t stre in memry.
The study f decisin-making in rats may help scientists find the rts f flawed decisin-making cmmn t mental health disrders such as addictin, the authrs say. They used-a new tl t manipulate（操纵）brain circuits in rats while they were making chices between actins that led t them receiving rewards r n rewards. If the rats made the right decisin, ne that ended in a reward, ne f the brain circuits was activated, but anther was activated if the rats made the wrng chice and received n reward. The third circuit stred past experiences and decisins t help the rats with future chices.
Stephanie Grman, lead authr f the research says, “A cmparisn wuld be deciding n a restaurant fr dinner. Fr instance, withut the ‘gd chice’ circuit yu may nt return t the restaurant with gd fd and withut the ‘bad chice’ circuit yu might nt avid the restaurant with bad fd. The third ‘memry’ circuit is crucial in making decisins such as whether t return t the restaurant after receiving ne bad meal after several gd nes.”
Changes in these circuits may help explain a typical feature f addictin—why peple cntinue t make harmful chices even after repeated negative experiences. The Yale researchers previusly shwed that sme f the same brain calculatins were disrupted（扰乱）in animals that had taken methamphetamine. “Because we used a test that is similar t thse used in studies f human decisin making, ur findings have direct relevance t humans and culd aid in the search fr nvel treatments fr substance abuse in humans,” Grman said.
32. Hw was Yale’s research different frm the previus thery?
A. It defined the functin f different brain regins.
B. It identified specific circuits invlved in decisin-making.
C. It fcused n the cnnectin between chices and memries.
D. It highlighted the rle f the frntal crtex in higher-rder thinking.
33. What can be inferred frm Stephanie Grman’s wrds?
A. Memries are related t all the three circuits.
B. Peple base their decisins n persnal preferences.
C. The three circuits are all f vital imprtance in making decisins.
D. The circuit related t rewards is the fundatin f deciding wisely.
34. What des the last paragraph mainly fcus n?
A. The limitatins f the present study. B. A descriptin f the research methd.
C. A pssible reasn fr the study findings.D. The ptential applicatin f the cnclusin.
35. What might be the best title fr the text?
A. Hw peple get addicted and curedB. Hw making decisins influences ur brain
C. Hw ur brain develps when facing chicesD. Hw the brain helps us make gd decisins and bad nes

Get Better at Saying N
When rejecting a request, “n” is a shrt, simple wrd that can cause anxiety fr the persn trying t say it. The fllwing strategies can help yu get better at saying n.
Be intentinal abut what yu cmmunicate.
36 Sure, but as psychlgist Vanessa Bhns pints ut, nly saying a “n” is ften pretty uncmfrtable fr the asker. Instead, she advises cmmunicating three things: “It’s nt because f me, it’s nt because f yu, and it’s nt because f us.” One way t d that is by thanking peple fr thinking f yu. 37 Then, fllw up with a shrt explanatin: “I wish I culd, but I just dn’t have the time right nw.” That helps make it clear that yur “n” isn’t a pr reflectin f yur wn character; it’s nt the ther persn; and it’s nt a disapprval f the relatinship, Bhns says.
Have a planned phrase fr mre infrmal encunters.
Nt every situatin, f curse, calls fr such a thughtful apprach. Think thrugh times when yu’ve gtten stressed ver delivering a quick “n”, and then brainstrm phrases yu culd use in the future. Bhns, fr example, is ften asked t dnate t sme cause r anther as she checks ut at the grcery stre. 38 “It’s true, and it’s a way f saying, essentially, that I’m still a gd persn,” she says.
39
There’s always that ne guy wh wn’t take “n” fr an answer. If smene is applying t much pressure, adpt what psychlgist Ellen Hendriksen describes as the brken-recrd technique. 40 Occasinally, the asker will get annyed, but usually after repeating yurself tw r three times, even the mst persistent（执着的）peple will get the message.
A. She says n directly.
B. That is, stick t yur answer.
C. Adpt the brken-recrd technique.
D. It’s nt wrth repeating yur request again and again.
E. She nw has a g-t respnse: “I already dnated this year.”
F. Yu might hear that “n” is a cnvenient wrd fr declining requests.
G. This makes them relieved that they didn’t d anything wrng by asking.

“I challenge yu t a hundred-meter race,” my ppnent, Julius, declared. He had beaten me cuntless times during practice, but I wanted t prve him wrng fr a change. “That’ll wipe the smile ff his face!” I thught, even as fear started t pl in my stmach. He was well-knwn arund the schl fr being the fastest runner n the track-and-field team, while I tailed behind in secnd place- a respectable psitin, but nt yet gd enugh t surpass（超过）him. Nevertheless, I shk his hand and said, “Challenge accepted!” Hwever, negative thughts flded my mind. Wuld I be able t win? After all, Julius’ speed f light wuld guarantee a sure win!
Sn, all my friends and the teachers had gathered arund t watch the challenge. “Oh n, I will lse and be embarrassed in frnt f the whle schl!” I spke in a lw vice. Nevertheless, I turned my wrried expressin int a determined smile. T keep myself frm sinking int self-dubt, I did sme stretches and jumping jacks t warm up my bdy.
Finally, the crucial mment arrived. The referee（裁判）fired the starting gun and we tk ff like a sht. Adrenaline（肾上腺素）rcketed thrugh my bdy as I launched myself frward. True t my expectatins, Julius caught up with me easily and was in the lead! “N way will I lse! Victry, here I cme!” I mtivated myself as anger cursed thrugh my bdy. As the race prgressed, my eyes lcked nt Julius, his athletic frm effrtlessly mving ahead. His quick steps and strng fcus shwcased his impressive skills. Yet, I refused t let dubt cnsume me. A fierce fire burnt within, fueled by a mix f unwillingness t admit defeat and anger. Hw dare he assume he was unbeatable? With every step, my determinatin slidified（变坚定）, and my reslve t surpass him strengthened.
