Fur years ag, life rewarded me fr all the challenges I embraced in search f self-imprvement. My spirits rse when I was selected t be in the Yuth Exchange and Study (YES) prgramme and I realized that I was ging t spend a full year in the United States. Befre that mment, living n the ther side f the Atlantic had always equated—fr a yung Mrccan wman wh had never set ft abrad—t an anxiety-free atmsphere, welcming neighbrs, and cuntless pprtunities. Frtunately, my hst cmmunity checked all these bxes.
My hst mther went abve and beynd t take care f my needs, my teachers were very accmmdating with regards t my schlwrk, and I culd use my status as an exchange student as an excuse when I needed a favr r an exceptin. As a YES student, peers frm s many diverse backgrunds at schl were interested in getting t knw me better. With all this unique treatment, I thught t myself, “Hld n a secnd! Is this what yu came fr?” Even thugh my hst cmmunity was s helpful and welcming, I realized that I was grwing t cntent with my life. I remembered that I came t the United States fr a challenge and that I was determined t strengthen my capacities.
T develp greater perseverance, I jined my hst schl’s swim team, even thugh I had n prir experience in this sprt. Fr ver five mnths, I walked myself—smetimes reluctantly—t swim practices. During thse practices, I did the best I culd fr three hurs each day.
One f my best achievements that year was cmpeting in ne f the biggest swim meets f the year. Frm an utsider’s perspective, it might nt seem like much, especially since I didn’t even win. Hwever, I was never the athletic type, nr have I ever been particularly utstanding in terms f discipline and cmmitment. Yet that was exactly what I achieved. I gained discipline and I came t the realizatin that I d nt need t be perfect at everything that I try fr the first time.
Grwth can take many frms. In my case, it tk the frm f a humid ceiling and an verly tight plyester cap. Grwth can nly be achieved by defying persnal limits and breaking free frm cmfrt znes. This is nt always a glamrus prcess, but it always brings yu clser t a new and imprved versin f yurself!
24. Hw did the authr feel abut her life in her hst family?
A. She felt smehw uneasy t be taken gd care f.
B. She felt free and culd d whatever she liked.

D. She felt stressed like living in a bx.
25. What made the authr jin the schl’s swim team?
A. Her experience in swimming.B. Her desire t challenge herself.
C. Her spirit f perseverance.D. Her interest in water sprts.
26. The authr thught that her achievement in swimming ________.
A. made her utstandingB. made her see her limits
C was nt a big dealD. was her curage t cmpete
27. What can we cnclude frm this passage?

A new study says that n matter hw much the wrld cuts back n greenhuse gases, a large and imprtant part f ice f Antarctica (南极洲) is expected t disappear.
Researchers used cmputer mdels t expect the future melting (融化) f prtective ice arund Antarctica’s Amundsen Sea in western Antarctica. They said the melting will take hundreds f years. It will slwly add nearly 1.8 meters t sea levels. And it will be enugh t change where and hw peple live in the future.
The study fund that even if future warming was limited t just a few tenths f a degree mre, it wuld have limited pwer t prevent cean warming that culd lead t the breakdwn f the West Antarctic Ice Sheet.
Study lead writer Kaitlin Naughten is an expert n ceans at the British Antarctic Survey. She said their research suggests that Earth is set n the path t a quickly increasing speed f cean warming and ice shelf melting ver the rest f the century.
While past studies have talked abut hw serius the situatin is, Naughten was the first t use cmputer mdeling t study hw warm water frm belw will melt the ice. The study lked at fur different cases in hw much greenhuse gases the wrld prduces. In each case, cean warming was just t much fr this area f the ice t survive.
Naughten lked at flating areas f ice that hld back glaciers (冰川). Once these areas f ice melt, there is nthing t stp the glaciers behind them frm flwing (流) int the sea.
The study als lked at what wuld happen if future warming was limited t 1.5 degrees Celsius ver mid-19th century levels: the internatinal gal. They fund the rapid melting prcess in this case as well.
The wrld has already warmed abut 1.2 degrees Celsius since pre-industrial times and much f this summer went past the 1.5 degrees mark.
28. Which can best describe the findings f the study?
A. Cheerful.B. Encuraging.C. Misleading.D. Disappinting.
29. What makes Naughten’s wrk n Antarctic ice special?
A. Her research area.B. Her research time.
C. Her research methd.D. Her research purpse.
30. What d we knw abut flating areas f ice?
A. They will flw int the sea.B. They prtect the Antarctic ice.
C. They have warmed abut 1.2℃.D. They disappear faster than ther ice.
31. Which f the fllwing can be the best title fr the text?
A. Ice in Parts f Antaretica Will DisappearB. Climate Change Will Harm Humans
C. Sea Level Will Rise Suddenly in the FutureD. Limiting Greenhuse Gases Makes N Sense
D
Animals can adapt quickly t survive unfavrable envirnmental cnditins. Evidence is munting t shw that plants can, t. A paper published in the jurnal Trends in Plant Science details hw plants are rapidly adapting t the effects f climate change, and hw they are passing dwn these adaptatins t their ffspring(后代).
Plants are facing mre envirnmental stresses than ever. Fr example, climate change is making winters shrter in many lcatins, and plants are respnding. “Many plants require a minimum perid f cld in rder t set up their envirnmental clck t define their flwering time,” says Martinelli, a plant geneticist at the University f Flrence. “As cld seasns shrten, plants have adapted t require shrter perids f cld t delay flwering. These mechanisms allw plants t avid flwering in perids when they have fewer pprtunities t reprduce.”
Because plants dn’t have neural(神经的) netwrks, their memry is based entirely n cellular(细胞的),mlecular(分子的),and bichemical netwrks. These netwrks make up what the researchers call smatic memry(体细胞记忆). “It allws plants t recgnize the ccurrence f a previus envirnmental cnditin and t react accrdingly,” says Martinelli.
These smatic memries can then be passed t the plants’ ffspring via epigenetics(表现遗传). “Several examples demnstrate the existence f mlecular mechanisms mdulating plant memry t envirnmental stresses and affecting the adaptatin f ffspring t these stresses,” says Martinelli.
Ging frward, Martinelli hpes t understand even mre abut the genes that are being passed dwn. “We are particularly interested in decding the epigenetic alphabet withut changes in DNA sequence(序列),”he says. “This is especially imprtant when we cnsider the rapid climate change, we bserve tday that every living rganism, including plants, needs t quickly adapt t survive.”
32. What adaptatins have plants made t shrtened cld seasns?
A. They have shrtened their flwering time.
B. They have gt mre chances t reprduce.
C. They have avided flwering in cld seasns.
D. They have adjusted their envirnmental clck.
33. What can we learn abut smatic memry?
A. It is entirely based n neural netwrks.
B. It can help the plants’ ffspring t survive.
C. It can help relieve envirnmental stresses.
D. It disturbs the plants’ bichemical netwrks.
34. What des the underlined wrd “mdulating” mean in paragraph 4?
A Adjusting.B. Treasuring.
C. Recrding.D. Sharing.
35. Which f the fllwing is a suitable title fr the text?
A. Plants are smart abut flwering time
B. Plants can als adapt t climate change
C. Envirnmental stresses challenge plants
D. Mysteries f plant genes are t be unflded

Fur years ag, life rewarded me fr all the challenges I embraced in search f self-imprvement. My spirits rse when I was selected t be in the Yuth Exchange and Study (YES) prgramme and I realized that I was ging t spend a full year in the United States. Befre that mment, living n the ther side f the Atlantic had always equated—fr a yung Mrccan wman wh had never set ft abrad—t an anxiety-free atmsphere, welcming neighbrs, and cuntless pprtunities. Frtunately, my hst cmmunity checked all these bxes.
My hst mther went abve and beynd t take care f my needs, my teachers were very accmmdating with regards t my schlwrk, and I culd use my status as an exchange student as an excuse when I needed a favr r an exceptin. As a YES student, peers frm s many diverse backgrunds at schl were interested in getting t knw me better. With all this unique treatment, I thught t myself, “Hld n a secnd! Is this what yu came fr?” Even thugh my hst cmmunity was s helpful and welcming, I realized that I was grwing t cntent with my life. I remembered that I came t the United States fr a challenge and that I was determined t strengthen my capacities.
T develp greater perseverance, I jined my hst schl’s swim team, even thugh I had n prir experience in this sprt. Fr ver five mnths, I walked myself—smetimes reluctantly—t swim practices. During thse practices, I did the best I culd fr three hurs each day.
One f my best achievements that year was cmpeting in ne f the biggest swim meets f the year. Frm an utsider’s perspective, it might nt seem like much, especially since I didn’t even win. Hwever, I was never the athletic type, nr have I ever been particularly utstanding in terms f discipline and cmmitment. Yet that was exactly what I achieved. I gained discipline and I came t the realizatin that I d nt need t be perfect at everything that I try fr the first time.
Grwth can take many frms. In my case, it tk the frm f a humid ceiling and an verly tight plyester cap. Grwth can nly be achieved by defying persnal limits and breaking free frm cmfrt znes. This is nt always a glamrus prcess, but it always brings yu clser t a new and imprved versin f yurself!

A new study says that n matter hw much the wrld cuts back n greenhuse gases, a large and imprtant part f ice f Antarctica (南极洲) is expected t disappear.
Researchers used cmputer mdels t expect the future melting (融化) f prtective ice arund Antarctica’s Amundsen Sea in western Antarctica. They said the melting will take hundreds f years. It will slwly add nearly 1.8 meters t sea levels. And it will be enugh t change where and hw peple live in the future.
The study fund that even if future warming was limited t just a few tenths f a degree mre, it wuld have limited pwer t prevent cean warming that culd lead t the breakdwn f the West Antarctic Ice Sheet.
Study lead writer Kaitlin Naughten is an expert n ceans at the British Antarctic Survey. She said their research suggests that Earth is set n the path t a quickly increasing speed f cean warming and ice shelf melting ver the rest f the century.
While past studies have talked abut hw serius the situatin is, Naughten was the first t use cmputer mdeling t study hw warm water frm belw will melt the ice. The study lked at fur different cases in hw much greenhuse gases the wrld prduces. In each case, cean warming was just t much fr this area f the ice t survive.
Naughten lked at flating areas f ice that hld back glaciers (冰川). Once these areas f ice melt, there is nthing t stp the glaciers behind them frm flwing (流) int the sea.
The study als lked at what wuld happen if future warming was limited t 1.5 degrees Celsius ver mid-19th century levels: the internatinal gal. They fund the rapid melting prcess in this case as well.
The wrld has already warmed abut 1.2 degrees Celsius since pre-industrial times and much f this summer went past the 1.5 degrees mark.
28. Which can best describe the findings f the study?
A. Cheerful.B. Encuraging.C. Misleading.D. Disappinting.
29. What makes Naughten’s wrk n Antarctic ice special?
A. Her research area.B. Her research time.
C. Her research methd.D. Her research purpse.
30. What d we knw abut flating areas f ice?
A. They will flw int the sea.B. They prtect the Antarctic ice.
C. They have warmed abut 1.2℃.D. They disappear faster than ther ice.
31. Which f the fllwing can be the best title fr the text?
A. Ice in Parts f Antaretica Will DisappearB. Climate Change Will Harm Humans
C. Sea Level Will Rise Suddenly in the FutureD. Limiting Greenhuse Gases Makes N Sense
D
Animals can adapt quickly t survive unfavrable envirnmental cnditins. Evidence is munting t shw that plants can, t. A paper published in the jurnal Trends in Plant Science details hw plants are rapidly adapting t the effects f climate change, and hw they are passing dwn these adaptatins t their ffspring(后代).
Plants are facing mre envirnmental stresses than ever. Fr example, climate change is making winters shrter in many lcatins, and plants are respnding. “Many plants require a minimum perid f cld in rder t set up their envirnmental clck t define their flwering time,” says Martinelli, a plant geneticist at the University f Flrence. “As cld seasns shrten, plants have adapted t require shrter perids f cld t delay flwering. These mechanisms allw plants t avid flwering in perids when they have fewer pprtunities t reprduce.”
Because plants dn’t have neural(神经的) netwrks, their memry is based entirely n cellular(细胞的),mlecular(分子的),and bichemical netwrks. These netwrks make up what the researchers call smatic memry(体细胞记忆). “It allws plants t recgnize the ccurrence f a previus envirnmental cnditin and t react accrdingly,” says Martinelli.
These smatic memries can then be passed t the plants’ ffspring via epigenetics(表现遗传). “Several examples demnstrate the existence f mlecular mechanisms mdulating plant memry t envirnmental stresses and affecting the adaptatin f ffspring t these stresses,” says Martinelli.
Ging frward, Martinelli hpes t understand even mre abut the genes that are being passed dwn. “We are particularly interested in decding the epigenetic alphabet withut changes in DNA sequence(序列),”he says. “This is especially imprtant when we cnsider the rapid climate change, we bserve tday that every living rganism, including plants, needs t quickly adapt t survive.”
32. What adaptatins have plants made t shrtened cld seasns?
A. They have shrtened their flwering time.
B. They have gt mre chances t reprduce.
C. They have avided flwering in cld seasns.
D. They have adjusted their envirnmental clck.
33. What can we learn abut smatic memry?
A. It is entirely based n neural netwrks.
B. It can help the plants’ ffspring t survive.
C. It can help relieve envirnmental stresses.
D. It disturbs the plants’ bichemical netwrks.
34. What des the underlined wrd “mdulating” mean in paragraph 4?
A Adjusting.B. Treasuring.
C. Recrding.D. Sharing.
35. Which f the fllwing is a suitable title fr the text?
A. Plants are smart abut flwering time
B. Plants can als adapt t climate change
C. Envirnmental stresses challenge plants
D. Mysteries f plant genes are t be unflded
