A
As the glbal ppulatin is prjected t reach nearly 10 billin by 2050, the challenge rests in prducing
enugh fd while minimizing envirnmental harm. Here are sme creative appraches t sustainable agriculture.
PRECISION AGRICULTURE
Precisin agriculture uses technlgy such as GPS, drnes (无人机), and sensrs t mnitr and manage crps
with high accuracy. By applying water, fertilizers, and pest (害虫) cntrl prducts nly where and when needed,
farmers can lwer csts, imprve utput and minimize the envirnmental impact f farming practices.
VERTICAL (垂直的) FARMING
Vertical farming invlves grwing crps in multiple layers, ften in cntrlled indr envirnments. This
methd uses less land and water than traditinal farming and can be used in urban areas, reducing the need fr
transprtatin. Althugh energy use remains a cncern, renewable energy surces can make vertical farming mre
sustainable.
REGENERATIVE AGRICULTURE
Regenerative agriculture fcuses n restring sil health and imprving ecsystems. Practices such as planting
cver crps, less digging, and planting trees with crps help absrb carbn, hld water, and supprt bidiversity.
These methds nt nly benefit the envirnment but als enhance lng-term farm prductivity.
CROP DIVERSIFICATION
Relying n a limited number f crps can lead t sil damage and weakness t pests and diseases. Crp
diversificatin, which invlves planting a variety f crps, imprves sil health, reduces risks, and enhances
bidiversity. This apprach is particularly imprtant fr adapting t climate change.
As the wrld faces the challenges f feeding a grwing ppulatin as well as prtecting the planet, sustainable
agriculture ffers a path frward. By adpting creative methds and rethinking traditinal practices, humanity can
ensure fd security while safeguarding the envirnment fr future generatins.
1. What is ne f the benefits f precisin agriculture?
A. Reducing waste. B. Using less land.
C. Cntrlling pests. D. Supprting bidiversity.
2. Which f the fllwing is suitable fr urban envirnments?
第 4页/共 13页
A. Precisin agriculture. B. Vertical farming.
C. Regenerative agriculture. D. Crp diversificatin.
3. What is the authr’s purpse in writing this text?
A. T advcate envirnmental prtectin. B. T prmte the use f renewable energy.

The Sydney 2000 Olympics intrduced the wrld t an unlikely her: Eric Mussambani frm Equatrial
Guinea. Knwn as “Eric the Eel”, he became a symbl f determinatin and curage, nt because he wn a medal,
but because he dared t cmpete despite great dds.
Eric didn’t start ut as a swimmer. Grwing up in Malab, the capital f Equatrial Guinea, he excelled at
sccer and basketball. But ne day, three mnths befre the start f the Sydney Olympics, he heard that the
Internatinal Olympic Cmmittee gave ut a limited number f wild cards t develping natins, which were
aimed at prmting glbal participatin. He may nt have wanted t be an Olympic swimmer but, having practiced
in a lcal river, Eric decided t give it a sht. With n prper swimming facilities in his cuntry, he trained in a
htel pl that was just 20 meters lng and ften practiced alne. Befre he arrived at the Games, he had never
even seen an Olympic-sized pl, let alne swum in ne.
On the day f his race, Eric was up against a tugh challenge. His tw cmpetitrs in the 100-meter freestyle
heat were disqualified fr false starts, leaving him t swim alne. As he dived int the water, it quickly became
clear that he was struggling. His strkes (划水动作) were awkward, his pace slw, and by the final 50 meters, he
was cmpletely wrn ut. The crwd held its breath, unsure if he wuld make it t the finish line. But Eric didn’t
give up. Step by step, r rather strke by strke, he pushed frward. When he finally tuched the wall, the audience
erupted in cheers, celebrating his determinatin and curage.
His swim made him an instant star f the Sydney Olympics fr psting the wrst time in the histry f the
sprt. But it als reminded the wrld that there’s far mre t the Olympic spirit than just victry.
4. What challenge did Eric face during his training?
A. Shrtage f qualified instructrs.
B. N pprtunity fr real cmpetitins.
C. N access t prper swimming venues.
D. Unfamiliarity with the rules f the Olympics.
5. What happened during Eric’s race?
第 5页/共 13页
A. He failed t reach the finish line. B. He swam the entire race alne.
C. He was disqualified fr a false start. D. He finished ahead f his cmpetitrs.
6. Which wrds can best describe Eric?
A. Devted and humble. B. Curageus and hnest.
C. Optimistic and utging. D. Determined and inspiring.
7. What is the passage mainly abut?
A. A swimmer’s Olympic medal victry.
B. A man’s curage mtivating the wrld.
C. A natin’s effrts in sprts develpment.

A simple handshake may reveal mre than just a greeting. A new study suggests that the way peple shake
hands culd uncnsciusly cmmunicate emtins and persnality characteristics.
Dr. Emily Carter, a behaviral psychlgist leading the research, studies nn-verbal (非 口 头 的 )
cmmunicatin and its rle in relatinships. Her curisity abut handshakes began during a leadership wrkshp.
She nticed that participants’ handshakes varied significantly, and she wndered if these differences might carry
meaningful infrmatin. T test her idea, she and her team cnducted an experiment.
The researchers fund 200 vlunteers and recrded their handshakes using high-speed cameras and pressure
sensrs. Participants were asked t shake hands with strangers, friends, and clleagues under different situatins,
such as meeting fr the first time, reslving a cnflict, r celebrating success. The team als measured participants’
heart rates and skin reactins t track emtinal respnses.
The findings were illuminating. Strng, firm handshakes were ften assciated with cnfidence and
enthusiasm, while weaker handshakes tended t signal nervusness r discmfrt. Ntably, lnger handshakes with
slight upward mvements were linked t excitement, while shrt, rigid nes reflected tensin. The study als
illustrated that the temperature and misture (湿度) f a persn’s hand culd reflect their emtinal state. Warmer,
slightly sweaty hands were mre cmmn when participants felt anxius r stressed, while cler, dry hands were
linked t calmness.
Carter believes these insights have practical applicatins. Fr instance, business prfessinals culd use
handshake analysis t better understand their clients’ emtins during negtiatins. Similarly, advisrs might use it
as a tl t understand a client’s emtinal state withut relying nly n verbal cmmunicatin.
第 6页/共 13页
Hwever, Carter cautins that handshakes are just ne piece f the puzzle. “Human interactin is cmplex,
and smething as simple as a handshake can speak vlumes,” she says. As scientists cntinue t explre the
mysteries f nn-verbal cmmunicatin, it’s clear that n single gesture can tell the whle stry.
8. Hw did Dr. Carter and her team study handshakes?
A. By cnducting surveys. B. By analyzing prir data.
C. By bserving participants. D. By interviewing vlunteers.
9. What des the underlined wrd “illuminating” in paragraph 4 mean?
A. Cnvincing. B. Revealing. C. Disturbing. D. Cnfusing.
10. What can we learn abut handshake analysis?
A. It helps interpret hidden emtins. B. It enhances cmmunicatin skills.
C. It cntributes t bnding with clients. D. It facilitates the prcess f negtiatin.
11. What can be inferred abut human interactin accrding t the last paragraph?
A. Nn-verbal clues ften mislead us. B. Handshakes are key t cmmunicatin.
C. One gesture cannt explain everything. D. Bdy language speaks luder than wrds.

Plastic has becme an essential part f mdern life, with arund 1 millin plastic water bttles sld every
minute and 5 trillin plastic bags used wrldwide every year, accrding t the UN’s Envirnment Prgram. Half f
all plastic prductin is designed fr single-use purpses, and the annual utput f ver 400 millin tns is
prjected t reach 1,100 millin tns by 2050. This grwing muntain f waste has intensified public and
regulatry demands fr imprved recycling.
Recycling plastic, hwever, is cmplex. Many items are dirty r made frm multiple layers, making traditinal
methds ineffective. Cnsequently, ver 90% f plastic waste is buried, r deserted in nature. In respnse,
frward-thinking cmpanies are investing in advanced recycling technlgies t turn waste int raw materials fr
new plastic. Yet, this apprach has caused debates.
One cmmn methd, pyrlysis, invlves heating plastic waste t prduce il and synthetic gas, which pwers
recycling plants. Hwever, the prcess releases harmful substances, raising cncerns abut its envirnmental
impact. Critics argue that, rather than achieving a reductin in carbn emissins (排放), this methd might result in
similar r even higher levels f emissins cmpared t the prductin f new plastic. Sme even accuse the
industry f using advanced recycling as a way t justify cntinued plastic prductin. America’s Envirnmental
Prtectin Agency has rejected this apprach, and Eurpean envirnmental grups share similar cncerns.
第 7页/共 13页
Despite these challenges, advanced recycling has ptential. Fr instance, Mura Technlgy in the UK claims
its hydrthermal prcess prduces mre utput with lwer carbn emissins, while Australia’s Samsara Ec is
develping enzyme-based methds that remve the need fr new il. These advancements culd make recycling
mre efficient and envirnmentally friendly, helping t keep plastic in use rather than in landfills (填埋场).
While the debate arund advanced recycling cntinues, prgress is underway. Britain recently apprved a
versin f the mass-balance apprach, and many EU member states are leaning twards acceptance. With further
innvatin and investment, advanced recycling culd play a vital rle in addressing the glbal plastic waste crisis.
12. What d the figures in paragraph 1 indicate?
A. The difficulty f recycling. B. The severity f plastic waste.
C. The prspect f plastic gds. D. The ppularity f plastic items.
13. Why des advanced recycling meet with criticism?
A. It legalizes plastic prductin. B. It prduces mre plastic waste.
C. It des harm t recycling plants. D. It risks higher carbn emissins.
14. What can be inferred abut the innvatins in advanced recycling?
A. They ffer an alternative t new il.
B. They have wn ppularity in the west.
C. They hld prmise fr green recycling.
D. They guarantee a slutin t plastic waste.
15. What is the authr’s attitude twards advanced recycling?
A. Critical. B. Objective. C. Dubtful. D. Supprtive.

Jake and Liam were bth sixteen and lived in the lively cmmunity f Greenfield. They had been inseparable
as kids, spending cuntless afternns explring the wds and building shelters tgether. But as they grew lder,
their paths began t separate. Liam’s grwing fame as a brilliant painter, with his parents prudly displaying his
artwrk during the weekly Yard-Sale Day, made Jake feel left ut. The admiratin Liam received frm the
cmmunity nly deepened Jake’s sense f lneliness. Thugh there had been n argument, the bnd they nce
shared with each ther seemed t fade.
One sunny afternn, as Jake was fixing his bike in the driveway, Liam apprached him with an unexpected
idea. “Hey, Jake! Hw abut teaming up fr the annual Kite Day cmpetitin this year?” Liam asked, his eyes
shining with excitement.
Jake lked up, surprised. “Us? Tgether? Are yu sure?” he replied, dubt clear in his vice.
“Of curse Yu’re great at figuring ut hw things wrk, and I can handle the design. We’d make an
unbeatable team,” Liam said cnfidently, extending his hand. His enthusiasm was hard t resist.
After a mment’s hesitatin, Jake shrugged(耸肩)and smiled. “Alright, why nt? Let’s d it,” he said, shaking
Liam’s hand. Liam’s smile widened, and he gave Jake a hearty high-five.
In the weeks leading up t the Kite Day cmpetitin, the tw friends threw themselves int the prject. They
spent hurs thinking f ideas, drawing designs, and gathering materials. Liam’s artistic talent brught their kite t
life with bright clrs and detailed patterns, while Jake’s gd understanding f hw things fly ensured the kite
wuld sar(高飞)effrtlessly.
Wrking side by side, the bys fund themselves recnnecting. They laughed ver ld memries and shared
stries abut their dreams fr the future. The tensin that had nce hung between them began t disappear.
Tgether, they transfrmed humble materials int an amazing masterpiece — a kite shaped like a dragn
uniquely detailed and painted in bright, eye-catching clrs.
