By day, Rbert Tittertn is a lawyer. In his spare time, thugh, he ges n stage beside pianist Maria Rasppva—nt as a musician but as her page turner. “I’m nt a trained musician, but I’ve learnt t read music s I can help Maria in her perfrmance.”
Mr Tittertn is chairman f the Omega Ensemble but has been the grup’s fficial page turner fr the past fur years. His jb is t sit beside the pianist and turn the pages f the scre s the musician desn’t have t break the flw f sund by ding it themselves. He said he became just as nervus as thse playing instruments n stage.
“A lt f skills are needed fr the jb. Yu have t make sure yu dn’t turn tw pages at nce and make sure yu find the repeats in the music when yu have t g back t the right spt,” Mr Tittertn explained.
Being a page turner requires plenty f practice. Sme pieces f music can g fr 40 minutes and require up t 50 page turns, including back turns fr repeat passages. Silent nstage cmmunicatin is key, and each pianist has their wn style f “ndding” t indicate a page turn, which they need t practise with their page turner.
But like all perfrmances, there are mments when things g wrng. “I was turning the page t get ready fr the next page, but the draft wind frm the turn caused the spare pages t fall ff the stand,” Mr Tittertn said. “Luckily I was able t catch them and put them back.”
Mst page turners are pian students r up-and-cming cncert pianists, althugh Ms Rasppva has nce asked her husband t help her ut n stage.
“My husband is the wrst page turner,” she laughed. “He’s interested in the music, feeling every nte, and I have t say: Turn, turn! Rbert is the best page turner I’ve had in my entire life.”
28. What shuld Tittertn be able t d t be a page turner?
A. Read music.B. Play the pian.
C. Sing sngs.D. Fix the instruments.
29. Which f the fllwing best describes Tittertn’s jb n stage?
A. Bring.B. Well-paid.C. Demanding.D. Dangerus.
30. What des Tittertn need t practise?
A. Cunting the pages.B. Recgnizing the “ndding”.
C. Catching falling bjects.D. Perfrming in his wn style.
31. Why is Ms Rasppva’s husband “the wrst page turner”?

Avid the supermarket shelves piled with cheese, cupcakes and pies. That is the message f an analysis that fund these items are the wrst when lking at bth nutritinal(营养的) and envirnmental impacts f thusands f fd and drink prducts sld in the UK and Ireland. S far, mst studies have fcused n the envirnmental impact f gds such as beef r beans, rather than tfu and ther prducts that shppers ften buy. Where research has fcused n such prducts, it has usually been fr a small number f them.
In rder t bridge the gap, Micheal Clark at the University f Oxfrd and his clleagues analyzed mre than 57, 000 fd and drink prducts sld in the UK and Ireland. The team tk the ingredients(成份)data frm eight retailers(零售商), including majr supermarkets Tesc and Sainsbury’s. Hwever, figures n hw much f each ingredient is in each prduct were nly available fr arund a tenth f them. T estimate(估计) the rest, Clark and his clleagues trained an algrithm(算法) n the knwn prducts and used it t predict the cmpsitin f the unknwn nes. Finally, the team linked all the ingredients t an existing database f envirnmental impacts, including emissins(排放), land use and water stress.
The results may cme as n surprise: meat, fish and cheese prducts had highest envirnmental impact while fruit, vegetables, bread and sugary drink prducts had the lwest burden. Clark admits that nne f this is exciting, given what we already knew frm past research. “What is imprtant is that yu can start getting these impact estimates fr prducts that peple are purchasing, which then has a lt f effects,” he says.
One f thse is ec-friendly, which can help cnsumers t make greener chices. Hwever, retailers have struggled in the past with the challenge f the large number f fd. Clark is thinking abut hw t eventually turn the data int an app that culd be used either by shppers r by retailers wanting t reduce their envirnmental impact. “We’ve made that infrmatin available in a way that means peple can start making infrmed decisins,” he says.
32. What is the purpse f Clark’s study?
A. T slve the envirnmental prblems with sme prducts.
B. T pint ut the mistakes f the previus research.
C. T fcus n the imprtant ingredients data frm retailers.
D. T estimate the envirnmental impact f frequently-bught prducts.
33. What des Paragraph 2 mainly talk abut?
A. The prcess f Clark’s study.B. The result f Clark’s study.
C. The significance f Clark’s study.D. The limitatin f Clark’s study.
34. What can be inferred abut Clark’s study frm Paragraph 3?
A. Surprising.B. Wrrying.C. Meaningful.D. Dubtful.
35. Which f the fllwing prducts shuld peple buy accrding t Clark’s study?
A. Nutritius fd like beef and eggs.
B. Green fd like carrts and bananas.
C. Healthy fd like fish and tfu.
D. Fresh fd like milk and chicken.
