It seems that the great desire among the young is to be popular. The desire to be popular can force you into looking and acting like everyone else. You can lose yourself in a sea of identical hairstyles and thinking styles.
I was forced to think about popularity not too long ago in a talk I had with my daughter. Margy had to change schools when my busy work schedule made it necessary for me to move houses. I suppose that, for a girl in her teens, entering a new school is like spending a season alone in the tropical jungles. At least that’s how Margy found it at first. However, as the school year drew to a close, one student after another came to her. I told Margy that I would have been more concerned if she had been an instant social success in her new school. Nobody can please everyone. If you try to do so, you will find values as lasting as soap bubbles blown into the air.
Some teenagers claim they want to dress as they please. But they all wear the same clothes. They set off in new directions in music. But somehow they all end up listening to the same record. Their reason for thinking or acting in a certain way is that the crowd is doing it. They have come out of their cocoon into a larger cocoon.
I know that it has become harder for a young person to stand up against the popularity wave. Our way of life makes a young non-conformist stand out like a Martian. These days there’s a great barrier for the young person who wants to find his or her own path. But the barrier is worth climbing over. You may want to listen to classical music instead of going to a party. Well, go to it. Be yourself. Popularity will come with the people who respect you for who you are. That’s the only kind of popularity that really counts.
28.Why was the author worried about his daughter’s popularity in her new school?
A. She might find no true friends. B. She would ignore her academic performance.
C. She had no idea of her own. D. She might betray her true self.
29.What does the author think of most teenagers?
A. They’re afraid of getting lost in life.
B. They lack the courage to be truly different.
C. They have difficulty understanding each other.
D. They find it hard to gain popularity as expected.
30. What is the probable meaning of the underlined word "non-conformist" in Paragraph 4?
A. Someone who cares about others’ opinion.
B. Someone who desires popularity greatly.
C. Someone who behaves in his own way.
D. Someone who wants to please others.
31. What is the author’s purpose of writing this passage?
A. To persuade readers to follow their own paths.
B. To tell parents how to guide their children.
C. To criticize the present values and beliefs.
D. To suggest a good way to be popular.
D
Modern agriculture and its ability to feed billions of people may be one of humanity's greatest achievements. However it comes with hidden costs. For example, have you ever considered how much water is needed to provide you with a steak or a salad? It may surprise you.
In a recent study published in the journal Nutrients, scientists from the Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organization(CSIRO). Australia's national science organization, took a close look at the diets of 9,341 adult Australians — specifically, their "water-scarcity footprints(水消耗足迹)". It turns out that a sweet tooth not only adds to our waistlines but also stresses our water resources.
The water-scarcity footprint is a widely recognized measurement of water consumption. First, it counts the liters of water you used. Then, it looks at the place where the water was used. Using a liter of water in the desert is not the same as using a liter of water in a tropical rainforest. The more scarce water is in your area, the larger your water-scarcity footprint.
The scientists found that the average Australian's diet had a water-scarcity footprint of 362 liters per day. Snacks and beverages — cookies, cakes, sodas and alcohol — accounted for 25 percent of the water-scarcity footprint. The research also included a glass of wine (41 liters), a single serving of potato chips (23 liters), and a small bar of milk chocolate (21 liters).
Not surprisingly, cutting down on snacks would be the top priority if we wanted to lower our own water-scarcity footprint.
Earth's surface is 70 percent water, but only 2.5 percent of that can be used for drinking or farming. While humanity faces an uphill battle to feed its growing population, climate change is causing droughts and extreme weather in agricultural centers like California and eastern Australia. Cities aren't safe, either. In 2018, Cape Town, South Africa, nearly ran out of water due to a drought. Its freshwater reservoir(储藏)stayed at just above 13.5 percent of full capacity. By 2030, a world of about 8.6 billion people will need 35 percent more water, 40 percent more energy, and 50 percent more food, according to the United States National Intelligence Council.
So, we need to watch what we eat, not just for our personal health but for the health of our societies.
32. Scientists find from their studies that __________ .
A. Modem agriculture has the ability to feed billions of people
B. A steak or a salad consumes much water
C. A sweet tooth puts pressure on water resources
D. Snacks consume 85 liters of water per day
33. What is the public's attitude to the water-scarcity footprint as a way to measure water consumption?
A. Approving B. Doubtful C. Negative D. Indifferent
34. The author develops the sixth paragraph mainly .
A. by explaining an experiment B. by analyzing a problem
C. by making comparisons D. by listing numbers
35. What is the best title for the text?
A. Water-scarcity footprint is measured B. Water waste starts with snacks
C. Water resources are reduced D. Water consumption faces an uphill battle

It seems that the great desire among the young is to be popular. The desire to be popular can force you into looking and acting like everyone else. You can lose yourself in a sea of identical hairstyles and thinking styles.
I was forced to think about popularity not too long ago in a talk I had with my daughter. Margy had to change schools when my busy work schedule made it necessary for me to move houses. I suppose that, for a girl in her teens, entering a new school is like spending a season alone in the tropical jungles. At least that’s how Margy found it at first. However, as the school year drew to a close, one student after another came to her. I told Margy that I would have been more concerned if she had been an instant social success in her new school. Nobody can please everyone. If you try to do so, you will find values as lasting as soap bubbles blown into the air.
Some teenagers claim they want to dress as they please. But they all wear the same clothes. They set off in new directions in music. But somehow they all end up listening to the same record. Their reason for thinking or acting in a certain way is that the crowd is doing it. They have come out of their cocoon into a larger cocoon.
I know that it has become harder for a young person to stand up against the popularity wave. Our way of life makes a young non-conformist stand out like a Martian. These days there’s a great barrier for the young person who wants to find his or her own path. But the barrier is worth climbing over. You may want to listen to classical music instead of going to a party. Well, go to it. Be yourself. Popularity will come with the people who respect you for who you are. That’s the only kind of popularity that really counts.
28.Why was the author worried about his daughter’s popularity in her new school?
A. She might find no true friends. B. She would ignore her academic performance.
C. She had no idea of her own. D. She might betray her true self.
29.What does the author think of most teenagers?
A. They’re afraid of getting lost in life.
B. They lack the courage to be truly different.
C. They have difficulty understanding each other.
D. They find it hard to gain popularity as expected.
30. What is the probable meaning of the underlined word "non-conformist" in Paragraph 4?
A. Someone who cares about others’ opinion.
B. Someone who desires popularity greatly.
C. Someone who behaves in his own way.
D. Someone who wants to please others.
31. What is the author’s purpose of writing this passage?
A. To persuade readers to follow their own paths.
B. To tell parents how to guide their children.
C. To criticize the present values and beliefs.
D. To suggest a good way to be popular.
D
Modern agriculture and its ability to feed billions of people may be one of humanity's greatest achievements. However it comes with hidden costs. For example, have you ever considered how much water is needed to provide you with a steak or a salad? It may surprise you.
In a recent study published in the journal Nutrients, scientists from the Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organization(CSIRO). Australia's national science organization, took a close look at the diets of 9,341 adult Australians — specifically, their "water-scarcity footprints(水消耗足迹)". It turns out that a sweet tooth not only adds to our waistlines but also stresses our water resources.
The water-scarcity footprint is a widely recognized measurement of water consumption. First, it counts the liters of water you used. Then, it looks at the place where the water was used. Using a liter of water in the desert is not the same as using a liter of water in a tropical rainforest. The more scarce water is in your area, the larger your water-scarcity footprint.
The scientists found that the average Australian's diet had a water-scarcity footprint of 362 liters per day. Snacks and beverages — cookies, cakes, sodas and alcohol — accounted for 25 percent of the water-scarcity footprint. The research also included a glass of wine (41 liters), a single serving of potato chips (23 liters), and a small bar of milk chocolate (21 liters).
Not surprisingly, cutting down on snacks would be the top priority if we wanted to lower our own water-scarcity footprint.
Earth's surface is 70 percent water, but only 2.5 percent of that can be used for drinking or farming. While humanity faces an uphill battle to feed its growing population, climate change is causing droughts and extreme weather in agricultural centers like California and eastern Australia. Cities aren't safe, either. In 2018, Cape Town, South Africa, nearly ran out of water due to a drought. Its freshwater reservoir(储藏)stayed at just above 13.5 percent of full capacity. By 2030, a world of about 8.6 billion people will need 35 percent more water, 40 percent more energy, and 50 percent more food, according to the United States National Intelligence Council.
So, we need to watch what we eat, not just for our personal health but for the health of our societies.
32. Scientists find from their studies that __________ .
A. Modem agriculture has the ability to feed billions of people
B. A steak or a salad consumes much water
C. A sweet tooth puts pressure on water resources
D. Snacks consume 85 liters of water per day
33. What is the public's attitude to the water-scarcity footprint as a way to measure water consumption?
A. Approving B. Doubtful C. Negative D. Indifferent
34. The author develops the sixth paragraph mainly .
A. by explaining an experiment B. by analyzing a problem
C. by making comparisons D. by listing numbers
35. What is the best title for the text?
A. Water-scarcity footprint is measured B. Water waste starts with snacks
C. Water resources are reduced D. Water consumption faces an uphill battle
