Kristin Kimball, a travel writer, drve frm New Yrk studi t Pennsylvania t write abut a yung sustainable farmer she’d heard f. When she arrived at the farm, the farmer said he was t busy t be interviewed, even thugh they had previusly scheduled it.
“Instead,” Kimball remembers,“ he handed me a garden tl and said, ‘There’s the vegetable land.’ That was the first time that I actually did any farm wrk, and yet when I started ding the wrk, I was shcked at hw viscerally I respnded.”
“And smething happened that day. I just fell in lve with the wrk.” she adds. “I think that human beings are in sme way brn t be farmers. This is what mst peple in the histry f the wrld have fcused their energy n.”
In a way, Kristin Kimball was lucky. When she decided t mve t a farm in upstate New Yrk, she had n idea what she was getting int. Seven years after her life-changing mve frm Manhattan t Essex Farm, Kimball has dcumented her adjustment t rural living in her new bk, The Dirty Life. The title f her bk, Kimball says, cmes frm the fact that farm wrk is cnsistently dirty. “I had n idea yu culd be dirty in s many different ways,” she says. “There’s dirt. There’s bld. There’s sweat. There’s yur wn sweat, and the sweat f the animals.”
In spite f the cnstant hard wrk, Kimball’s farm still has its quiet, rmantic mments. The first year she planted ptates, the yield (收获) was enrmus — arund 10,000 punds. Friends were called t help. “It was truly fall,” Kimball writes:
The air was still cld at nn despite the bright sun. We biled ptates in their skins in the field, and served them steaming in napkins (餐巾纸). We all warmed ur chilled fingers n them, ppped them pen, invested them with quantities f butter and salt. If there is a mre perfect way t celebrate the ptat’s earthy, sustaining essence (本质), I have nt discvered it yet.
24. Which f the fllwing can best describe Kimball’s path t farming?
A. Well-planned.B. Interest-based.C. Unexpectedly-taken.D. Curisity-driven.
25. What des the underlined wrd “viscerally” in paragraph 2 mean?
A. Naturally.B. Patiently.C. Passively.D. Hesitantly.
26. Why did Kimball write the bk?
A. T share the jy f harvest.B. T prmte the benefits f farming.
C. T recrd her adaptatin t cuntry life.D. T intrduce the farming skills she learned.
27. What des Kimball intend t express in the last paragraph?
A. The happiness in cking ptates.B. The satisfactin gained frm farm life.
C. The significance f teamwrk in farming.D. The challenges f farming in cld weather.

The scientist’s jb is t figure ut hw the wrld wrks, t “trture (拷问)” Nature t reveal (揭露) her secrets, as the 17th century philspher Francis Bacn described it. But wh are these peple in the lab cats and hw d they wrk? It turns ut that there is a gd deal f mystery surrunding the mystery-slvers.
“One f the greatest mysteries is the questin f what it is abut human beings — brains, educatin, culture etc. that makes them capable f ding science at all,” said Clin Allen, a scientist at Indiana University.
Tw vital elements seem t be necessary t make a scientist: the curisity t seek ut mysteries and the creativity t slve them.“ Scientists exhibit a heightened level f curisity,” reads a 2007 reprt n scientific creativity. “They g further and deeper int basic questins shwing a passin fr knwledge fr its wn sake.” Max Planck, ne f the fathers f quantum (量子) physics, nce said, the scientist “ must have a vivid and intuitive imaginatin, fr new ideas are nt prduced by deductin (推论), but by an artistically creative imaginatin.”
But thers disagree with this universal scientific mind. They believe that scientists have special abilities that set them apart. Discvering these abilities may be hard, Allen thinks, as many scientists will be unwilling t reveal them and wuld prefer t preserve the mystery f creativity, fearing that if it became an bject f study it wuld lse its magic.
But fr Allen, this is all part f a bigger questin f what lies behind anyne’s behavir. “We are nly just beginning t understand hw the characteristics f creatures, including urselves, aren’t the fixed prducts f either genes r f envirnment/culture, but each f us is the prduct f a cntinual interactive prcess in which we help build the envirnments that in turn shape us, ” he said. “ As lng as ur best technlgy fr seeing inside the brain requires subjects t lie nearly still while surrunded by a giant magnet (磁铁), we’re nly ging t make limited prgress n these questins,” Allen said.
28. Why des the authr mentin Max Planck in paragraph 3?
A T intrduce a famus scientist.
B. T stress the rle f creativity in science.
C. T illustrate what is curisity in science.
D. T cmpare different views n science.
29. What d Allen’s wrds in the last tw paragraphs suggest?
A. Our interactin with the envirnment shapes us.
B. Technlgy reveals much abut human behavir.
C. We are passively influenced by genes and culture.
D. Human behavir is changeable and unpredictable.
30. What is Allen’s attitude t the current study n the human brain?
A. Pessimistic.B. Indifferent.C. Apprving.D. Uncertain.
31. Which is the mst suitable title fr the text?
A. Wh Are the Mystery-Slvers
B. Scientists Are Nt Brn but Made
C. Great Mystery: What Makes a Scientist
D. Slving Mysteries: Inside a Scientist’s Mind

Lena’s father had always been a man f few wrds. Since her mther passed away five years ag, he had shuldered the respnsibility f raising her alne, wrking duble shifts (班次) as a taxi driver t supprt his family. Their small apartment was always filled with an unspken tensin — the kind that cmes frm tw peple living tgether but never truly cnnecting, except that, each night, he’d leave a glass f warm milk n her desk with his usual “Dn’t stay up t late.”
One Saturday, while cleaning the stre rm, Lena came acrss an ld shebx. Driven by curisity, she tk it ut and culdn’t wait t find ut what was inside. When she pened it, a scent f ld paper greeted her. Inside were many black-and-white phts frm befre she was brn. One pht caught her eye — her yung father kneeling in a sunny field, smiling happily as he tk pictures with a camera. He lked s different frm the tired man she knew nw.
That evening, as they sat acrss frm each ther at their usual silent dinner, Lena gathered her curage. “Dad,” she began hesitantly, “I fund sme ld phts tday...”, Her father’s frk frze mid-air. He quickly lked at her, then away. “That was a lifetime ag,” he murmured, pushing his fd arund his plate. After a brief silence, he added quietly, “Had t sell that camera when yu started middle schl,” The way his vice cracked n the last wrd made Lena's heart ache.
The next day, she searched nline and fund Thmpsn’s Vintage Camera Shp — a family-wned stre just three blcks frm her schl. Mr. Thmpsn, a kind-eyed man in his sixties, had a similar camera her father nce wned. When she explained her situatin, his face sftened, “Hw abut this?” he said, “Yu help me arund the shp after schl fr a mnth and the camera is yurs.
注意：(1)续写词数应为150个左右； (2)请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。
Fr a mnth, Lena raced between schl, hmewrk, and the camera shp.
