There is a special plant that appears t make cats happy—catnip. When cats smell catnip, they rub their heads against it, rll arund and lk very happy. Smetimes they als becme playful. Such respnses (反应) t the cat-attracting plants are called the “catnip respnse”. Catnip can help cats, especially thse kept indrs all the time, feel less bred.
Years ag, we helped several cats frm an animal care center and wanted t make them really happy. We bught catnip fr them, but t ur surprise, nne f the cats liked the smell f this plant. Hw many cats are there wh d nt like catnip? Are there ther plants that cats wuld like instead?
We tested 100 cats frm the center with catnip and several ther plants we had heard might have a similar effect. It turned ut that abut 30% f them did nt care fr catnip, but fr ther plants. Tw f these plants are silver vine and Tatarian hneysuckle. When the tw plants were ffered t the 32 cats wh did nt like catnip, we nticed that 81% f them did lve at least ne f thse plants. Silver vine was the mst ppular plant, even mre ppular than catnip! Abut 80% f all the cats lved silver vine—smelling this plant made them really happy. Silver vine was als the plant mst lved by the cats wh did nt like catnip.
There're hundreds f chemical cmpunds (化合物) in plants. We tested which f them attracted the cats. The result suggests that cats respnd nt nly t nepetalactne, the cat-attracting cmpund in catnip, but als t nine ther chemical cmpunds, and the jyful respnse nly happens when they smell enugh f the cmpunds in plants.
Actually, ne f the cat-attracting cmpunds is als prduced by animals. We believe they may use it t cmmunicate with each ther thrugh smell.
We still d nt understand exactly why plants make cats happy. We are cntinuing ur research. We als hpe that mre peple will start using catnip, silver vine and Tatarian hneysuckle t help their cats live happier and healthier lives.
27. The writer did the test n 100 cat t find ut _______.
A. what ther plants may attract the catnip
B. hw many catnip respnses there are
C. if cats can be kept indrs all the time
D. when the cats in the center enjy catnip
28. What can we learn frm Paragraph 3 and Paragraph 4?
A. The 100 tested cats were attracted t cats.
B. Mst f the tested cats liked silver vine best
C. The catnip respnse depends n the clr f the plants
D. Cat-attracting cmpunds are nly prduced by plants
29. Which might be the best title fr the passage?
A. Hw Cats React t Catnip
B. Hw Plants Make Cats Happy
C. What Plants Help Cats Cmmunicate?
D. What Cmpunds Imprve Cats' Lives?
D
Imagine yu gt a bad grade n a test. What kind f thughts wuld be running thrugh yur head? When smething difficult like this happens, a lt f us will be hard n urselves. Nw imagine it were yur friend wh gt a bad grade—what wuld yu say t him? Mst peple say that they wuld be much kinder t their friend and wuld say smething supprtive. They wuld shw their friend cmpassin, which means they wuld feel what their friend was feeling and wish t help him. When peple shw the same level f cmpassin t themselves, they are practising self-cmpass n.
One way t think f self-cmpassin is by breaking it dwn int three parts. The first part is called mindfulness. Mindfulness just means being hnest abut hw yu are feeling withut pretending (假装) that everything is kay, and withut exaggerating the situatin. Fr example, imagine yu have plans t g t the beach n the weekend. When it is time t g, it starts t rain and yu cannt g. A mindful respnse might be t say, “I am disappinted that I can't g t the beach tday”, rather than “I d nt care, I did nt even want t g t the beach”, r “This is the wrst day ever!”
The secnd part f self-cmpassin is called cmmn humanity Failure, imperfectin and disappintment are part f the shared human experience. Cmmn humanity reminds us that we are nt alne in hw we are feeling, and it can make us feel mre cnnected with thers arund us.
The third part f self- cmpassin is called kindness. It can help t think abut what yu might say t a gd friend r what a gd friend might say t yu. Yu can als take actins t supprt yur bdy and mind, like getting enugh sleep r watching a funny mvie.
Sme peple wrry that if they are kind t themselves, they will nt try t d challenging things. But being self- cmpassinate des nt mean that yu d nt want t make changes. It just means that, while yu are ding smething difficult yu can supprt yurself rather than beat yurself up. Reminding yurself that we all find new tasks challenging, and that we all might fail smetimes, can help us be less discuraged and mre mtivated t imprve urselves.
Being self-cmpassinate can set the stage (舞台) fr better health, relatinships and general well-being. Hwever, it is als imprtant t remember that when yu are kind t yurself, the bad feelings and difficult situatins will nt g away, and they will always be a part f life. The mre yu pen yur heart t this reality instead f cntinually fighting against it, the mre yu will be able t feel cmpassin fr yurself.
30. Peple may need t be self-cmpassinate when _______.
A. helping a friend ut f truble
B. perfrming prly n the stage
C. being verprud f successfulness
D. making great prgress in their wrk
31. The wrd “exaggerating” in Paragraph 2 mst prbably means _______.
A. influencing B. examiningC. verstating D. recnsidering
32. What d we knw abut self-cmpassin frm the passage?
A. Accepting imperfectin helps us practise cmmn humanity
B. Being kind t yurself makes difficult situatins g away
C. Mindfulness may cause us nt t recgnize ur feelings
D. Self-cmpassin means nt challenging urselves.
33. What is the writer's main purpse in writing this passage?
A. T encurage peple t supprt their friends in need.
B. T remind peple that self-cmpassin has tw sides
C. T stress the imprtance f the cnnectin between peple
D. T suggest treating yurself like yu're yur wn best friend

During my childhd, I didn't have much interest in reading. Hwever, when I entered middle schl. I began listening t audibks and grew t lve it. Nw, I manage t finish a cuple f audibks each mnth.
While reading a printed bk allws mre freedm t re-read paragraphs that yu didn't quite catch, g back t lk smething up frm earlier in the bk r even write dwn sme ntes in the margin (页边空白) , audibks have their wn benefits. They are especially enjyable and cnvenient fr bth kids and adults. Besides, yu can multitask while listening and get thrugh bks faster.
I ften listen t audibks befre reading paper nes in rder t better understand sme difficult parts. Listening is necessary fr all kinds f learning, including reading. I can nw enjy lnger bks that I might nt have had the patience t read, and my ability t fcus n audibks carries ver t my skill in fcusing n a written text.
T me, the clest thing abut audibks is the rle f the narratr (朗读者) . When yu listen t audibks, the narratrs d much f the “wrk” fr yu, which can be very pleasing when they are skilled. I like the sense f reading with smene wh understands and lves the material. I remember listening t Charlie and the Chclate Factry narrated by the authr (作者) himself. It was a truly magical experience!
Audibks have becme a big part f my life. At hme, I lve sitting n the sfa, lsing myself in a gd stry, and then I share my thughts with my parents. It's nt just abut enjying a gd bk; it's abut creating shared mments and cnversatins.
Audibks have changed my life. They make reading fun by bringing stries t life thrugh skilled narratrs and discussing audibks with family adds a jyful richness t my everyday mments.
34. When did the writer begin listening t audibk?
35. Why des the writer ften listen t audibk befre reading paper nes?
36. What kind f narratrs des the writer like?
37. D yu like listening t audibks? Why r why nt? (Please give tw reasns.)
