After mving t the United States in 1901, 19-year-ld Bb Duglas fund a jb as a drman in New Yrk. Later, a c-wrker tk him t visit a basketball curt, and he was amazed by the athletic prwess n display. At that mment, Duglas, wh had enjyed playing sprts as a child, was determined t create a basketball team and prvide greater pprtunities fr New Yrk City’s Black athletes.
He needed t find a place fr his team t play. When asking a ballrm wner, William Rach, fr permissin t use ne f the dance flrs, Duglas was replied with “yu guys will break up my place”. After prmising t take n all the financial risk, he finally persuaded Rach t change his mind and called the team “Rens”.
Hwever, their ballrm had fewer seats and attracted fewer peple than thers, s Duglas had t pack the huse t generate prfits and keep his team alive. They traveled the cuntry playing any ppnent that wuld agree t schedule them, during which they repeatedly faced discriminatin and unfair treatment and the players were ften banned frm htels and restaurants.
N matter the bstacle, the Rens just kept strict practicing. They helped change the game f basketball by fcusing n quick passing, which let the players mve faster, play a mre fluid game and keep winning. In 1925, the Rens shcked the wrld by defeating the Original Celtics, the mst dminant team f their day. During the 1932-33 seasn, the team wn 88 straight games, a prfessinal basketball recrd that remains unbrken.
Unfrtunately, the Rens disbanded in 1949. But in time, they were recgnized fr the imprtant rle they played in advancing Black athletes in basketball, ensuring that althugh the Rens aren’t a husehld name, their stry will never be frgtten.

Plastic is everywhere, frm the Arctic ice t vital rgans in the human bdy. In fact, previus estimates suggest that the average persn swallws a credit card-wrth f micrscpic plastic particles (颗粒) every week. But new research shws that this culd actually be an understatement.
Micrplastics are plastics smaller than 5 millimeters, fund in industrial waste, beauty prducts, and frmed during the degradatin f larger plastic pieces. Over time, they break dwn int even smaller nanplastics. These tiny particles can pass thrugh ur intestines and lungs int ur bldstreams, reaching vital rgans like the heart and brain.
While the idea f eating plastic is unsettling in itself, the majr cncern here is that these plastic particles cntain chemicals that can interrupt ur bdy’s natural release f hrmnes, ptentially increasing ur risk f reprductive disrders and certain cancers. They can als carry txins n their surface like heavy metals.
In the past, researchers have shwn bttled water can cntain tens f thusands f identifiable plastic fragments in a single cntainer. Hwever, until recently, nly the larger micrplastics were detectable with available measuring tls, leaving the area f nanplastics largely a mystery.
Using Raman micrscpy, capable f detecting particles dwn t the size f a flu virus, the team measured an average f 240,000 particles f plastic per liter f bttled water, 90 percent f which were nanplastics, a revelatin 10 t 100 times larger than previus estimates.
These plastics likely riginate frm the bttle material, filters used t “purify” the water, and the surce water itself. “It is nt ttally unexpected t find s much f this stuff,” the study’s lead authr, Clumbia graduate student Naixin Qian, said in a statement. His team hpes t expand their research int tap water and ther water surces t better infrm ur expsure t these ptentially dangerus particles. “The idea is that the smaller things get, the mre f them I reveal,” he added.
What is the primary fcus f the new research?
A. The presence f plastic particles.
B. The use f plastic in everyday prducts.
C. The detectin methds fr micrplastics.
D. The ptential risks f nanplastics t human.
29. What is the advantage f Raman micrscpy?
A. Finding the surce f plastic particles. B. Helping t cure the deadly flu virus.
C. Detecting the smaller plastic particles. D. Imprving the quality f Bttled water.
30. Why will the team expand their-research int tap water?
A. T fcus n areas with higher plastic pllutin.
B. T be aware f the dangerus’ particles in daily life.
C. T further measure the types f particles in tap water.
D. T detect the smaller plastic particles in industrial areas.
31. What is Qian’s attitude twards his research?
A. Skeptical.B. Objective.C. Cnservative.D. Psitive.

I came acrss an image recently f a distance runner with a message that tld readers t persevere at all csts. It reminded me f a cnversatin I had. My clleague’s teaching assistant was asking fr my advice. He wanted t knw when t quit smething. He described hw he’d been playing an nline game with peple fr sme time. It hadn’t been very fun lately, but there was always that small chance f a reward (upgraded equipment, etc).
I inquired further abut his relatinship with the players and his gains frm the game. I then discussed the sunk cst dilemma, a cncept I studied in advanced schl due t its persnal impact. In high schl, I applied t five universities, planning t chse the cheapest ne. SUU ffered the best schlarship, and after paying a $100 cmmitment fee, I heard back frm anther schl with an even better schlarship. Despite the new ffer, I stayed cmmitted t SUU, believing that switching schls, even if it meant acknwledging the “wasted” $ 100, wuld have been the wiser financial chice,
A ratinal decisin maker is nt ruled by past investments, but weighs future utcmes. I didn’t fcus n future utcmes when weighing clleges. I fcused n the mney I sunk int SUU. Rather than evaluating future career ptins, I fcused n the fact that I’d already taken elementary educatin curses.
I’m nt the nly ne that’s fallen prey t this. I wear clthes I dislike simply because I spent mney n them (and that mney wn’t cme back). Unhealthy relatinships last because f the invested time (leading t mre unhappy years). Hwever, time, effrt, r mney that yu’ve invested desn’t mean yu shuld cntinue. Sciety ften stresses perseverance-never quit, never give up, dn’t waste. Hwever, nly yu knw yur right path. Walking away can be the tughest chice. Yu might realize a path yu’re n is n lnger the right ne r never was.
32. Why des the authr intrduce a distance runner’s image at first?
A. T make a cntrast.B. T give a definitin.
C. T draw a cnclusin.D. T illustrate a thery.
33. What is the cmmn characteristic f a ratinal decisin maker?
A. Fllwing suit as mst peple.B.Taking elementary educatin,
C. Valuing the develpment in future.D. Overlking past investments.
34. What des the underlined idim “fallen prey t” mean in the last paragraph?
A. Get benefits frm. B. Be harmed by.C. Be interested in.D. Get rid f.
35. Which is the best title f the text?
A. Perseverance is a virtue B. The chsen path is the tughest
C. Cut yur lsses fr yur winners D. Walking away means lsing all

The art f learning hw t think
Learning hw t think is really the whle pint f ging t university because it is ne f the few perids in yur life when yu get time t d it.

If yu are having truble thinking, it may be because yu lack anther skill that wuld make it easier. It wuld be that yu dn’t have a wide enugh vcabulary t put yur thughts int wrds. ____38____ If yu share a huse with vilinists and pianists, yu may have truble hearing yurself think.
One way t sharpen this skill is t think critically abut what ther peple are thinking. Thinking is nt always smething that needs t be dne alne. ____39____ S, if yur husemates ever abandn their instruments, engage them in cnversatin, lk fr hles in their arguments, and explain yur wn.

Prper thinking is abut creating an argument.
It enables us t becme mre independent thinkers.

And thus it saves yu actually ding anything nce yu leave.
Yu may als be in the wrng envirnment fr prductive thught.
Having a ne track mind wn’t imprve yur pwer f thinking anyway.
In fact, cmmunicating yur thughts can help t develp and clarify them.

In ur weekly staff meeting, ur editr Ashley was nt pleased with the quality f ur reprting. “Our readership is way dwn. We need better stries fr this Thursday’s schl newspaper. Des anybdy have any ideas?” She said.
I handed her my article abut ur basketball team beating Deerfield High Schl the previus night by ne pint. “Sprts stries are fun,” she said, “but nt gd enugh fr the frnt page. We need smething t really get peple’s attentin.
After ur meeting, we left the newsrm tgether and heard smene screaming, “Perry is missing!” Perry was a big red parrt and had been ur schl masct (吉祥物) fr ten years. He played an imprtant rle in students’ lives bth in and ut f class. He had als been a cnstant presence at schl events, inspiring a sense f unity amng students.
Everyne gathered arund Perry’s empty cage, heartbrken. Suddenly, a student frm the crwd came ver and shwed me a pht. “Yu’re a reprter fr the schl paper, right? I happened t take this yesterday,” he said. In the pht was a Deerfield High Schl basketball player with smething large hidden under his shirt arund the size f a parrt.
“He must have stlen Perry t get back at us fr winning the game!” Ashley cried. We hurried back t the newsrm, agreeing t run the pht n the frnt page with the headline “Deerfield Steals Perry.” “This is just the stry we need. Everyne will read it,”
Ashley said cnfidently.
After she left, I tk a clser lk at the pht. The clck in the backgrund read 4:15 pm, but ur game against Deerfield hadn’t started until 4:30 pm. Why wuld the by have taken Perry befre we even played? An uneasy feeling came ver me that we might have falsely accused smene. I went t Perry’s usual caretaker t ask if he knew Perry was missing. “He’s nt missing. He’s retired. He’s ready fr sme quieter days,” he said. Learning the truth, I immediately tld Ashley and suggested writing a stry t say gdbye t Perry.
T my surprise, Ashley insisted n reprting the “Deerfield Steals Perry” stry. ___
