If the world wants to control global warming, water shortage and pollution, then we all need to welcome “flexitarian” diets, say scientists.
This means eating mainly plant-based foods, and is a key step toward an environment friendly future for all in 2050, they say. Food waste will need to be halved ad farming practices will also have to improve, according to the study arid out by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC). Without action, the influence of the food system could increase by up to 90%
The authors say that he present food industry has a number of considerable environmental effects including being a great driver of climate change, using up freshwater and causing pollution through heavy use of chemical fertilizer. The study says that thanks to the population and income growth expected between 2010 and 2050, these effects could grow between 50-90%. This could push our world beyond is planetary boundaries, which the authors say represent a “safe operating space for humanity and the international community”.
However, the study finds that no single solution will avoid the dangers, so a combined approach is needed. So when it comes to climate change, the authors looked at what they called a “flexitarian” diet.
“We can eat a range of healthy dies but what they all have in common, according to the latest scientific evidence, is that they are all relatively plant-based,” said Dr. Marco from the University of Oxford. “You can go from a diet that has small amounts of animal products (some might call it a Mediterranean-based diet; we call it a flexitarian diet) over to a vegetarian(素食的) diet—we tried to stay with the most traditional one of these which in our view is the flexitarian one, but even this has only one serving of red meat per week.”
If the world moved to this type of diet, the study found that greenhouse gas emissions(排放物) from farming would be reduced by more than half.
Dr. Marco says that all measures combined can result in keeping both the planet and people healthy.
8. What is the IPCCs study about?
A. The role of modem farming practices.
B. The differences between various diets.
C. The effects of food industry on the planet.
D. The harmful consequence of global warming.
9. What do we know about the recent food system?
A. It is far too wasteful.
B. It has raised farmers’ income.
C. It contributes to the development of farming.
D. It is a key step to an environment-friendly society.
10. What can be called a “flexitarian” diet?
A. Eating a variety of food.
B. Eating a lot of animal products.
C. Eating vegetables grown without fertilizer
D. Eating mostly plant-based meals and some red meat.
11. What benefit will the new diet bring to the world?
A. The water pollution will be controlled in 2050.
B. Less greenhouse gas will be produced.
C. Food waste will be reduced by half.
D. Much more money will be saved.
D.
There has long been a view that in ancient times men were the hunters-out getting the neat — while women were gatherers-searching for fruit, vegetables and wild plants.
However, this stereotype has been overthrown by an archaeological discovery. Scientists found the remains of a teenage girl, who lived around 9,000 years ago, at a site in Peru alongside a hunting toolkit(工具箱).There was a knife and fakes(薄片)of rock for removing internal organs(内脏), and other hunting tools.
"It took a strong case to help us recognize that the archaeological pattern indicated actual female hunting behavior," said Randy Has, he lead author of the study.
The remains were recovered in 2018 when an archaeological site was being excavated(挖掘). Actually, Haas' team didn't plan to study female hunters. They found six bodies in a burial pit, a site 3,925 meters above sea level, on a windy plateau in southern Peru. The researchers used a new method to determine the sex of the found bones. The technique analyzed a protein in the remains' tooth enamel(釉质)to tell their gender. It turned out that the remains with an impressive hunting kit belong to a female.
According to the study and previous records of 107 other burial sites throughout North and South America, the team thinks that between 30 percent and 50 percent of big-game hunters who lived more than 10,000 years ago in the Americas could have been women.
However, some people think the hunting tools could have been placed there for symbolic or religious reasons, so the girl might not be a hunter.
In response, Haas pointed out the 9,00-year-old tomb contains a wide variety of tools-some are very rare, some are common — so this suggests that these tools were not some kind of sacrificial(献祭的)offering. Rather, they were the object that individuals used regularly.
Haas said this debate has great significance in today's world. "This insight-for me at least-stresses that many of the gender inequalities we see today do not have a biological basis," he said.
12. What is the word "overthrown" in paragraph 2 closest in meaning to?
A. Established. B. Supported.
C. Explained. D. Challenged.
13. What can we learn about the archaeological study done by Haas’ team?
A. It was aimed at learning about ancient female hunting behavior
B. A total of six bodies were discovered in northern Peru
C. A protein in the remains' tooth enamel was examined to know their gender
D. It suggested that most females in ancient times were hunters.
14. According to Haas, what were the tools found in the 9,000-year-old tomb used for?
A. For daily uses. B. For sacrificial offerings
C. For symbolic practices. D. For religious purposes
15. What do Haas' words imply in the last paragraph?
A. Males should be to blame for gender inequalities.
B. There were fewer gender inequalities in ancient times.
C. Many gender inequalities are not supported by biology.
D. We should ignore biological differences between males and females.

根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填人空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。
Can you remember a morning when you’ve woken up to the ring of your alarm clock and wished you could stay in bed? You haven’t slept well, your eyes are bleary(模糊的) and your hair is a mess. Worse, you can’t stop yawning(打哈欠). But why, exactly, do we yawn?____16____ .
One theory is that when we are bored or tired, we just don’t breathe as deeply as we usually do. ____17____Therefore, yawning helps us bring more oxygen into the blood and move more carbon dioxide out of the blood.
Yawning, then, would be an action that we can’t really control to help us control our oxygen and carbon dioxide levels. Sounds good, but other studies have shown that breathing more oxygen does not make us yawn less.____18____. Hmmm. Now what?
___19___. Stretching and yawing may be a way to exercise muscle and joints, increase heart rate, and feel more awake.
Other people believe that yawning is a protective reflex to redistribute he oil-like substance called surfactant that helps keep lungs from drying up and caving in. So, if we didn’t yawn, according to this theory, taking a deep breath would become harder and harder-and that would not be good!
But there is one idea about yawing that everyone knows to be true:____20____. If you yawn in class, you’ll probably notice a few other people will start yawing, too. Even thinking about yawn-ing can get you yawning How many times have you yawned while reading this article? We hope not many!
A. It seems to spread.
B. Yawning seems to be common.
C. No one knows for sure, but there are many theories.
D. Another theory is that yawning stretches he lung and lung tissue.
E. Similarly, breathing more carbon dioxide does not increase yawning.
F. This theory indices yawning like a deep breath, helps us feel fresh.
G. As this theory goes, our bodies take in less oxygen because our breathing has slowed.

A dear friend sent me a letter and handmade card in the mail today. On the outside of the card was a cutout picture of a hummingbird(蜂鸟) in mid-Night. With is wings it flew deep into a flower Below. it was a quote by Russian writer Fyodor Dostoyevsky: “The world will be saved by beauty.” I smiled with both my face and heart when I saw it.
Looking at it reminded me of all the beauty in this world. I thought about the beautiful green forested mountains of my home.

It was these souls so full of love for each other and for this world that would save our planet. It was this love working through people that would make this world the place it was truly meant to be in the end.

If the world wants to control global warming, water shortage and pollution, then we all need to welcome “flexitarian” diets, say scientists.
This means eating mainly plant-based foods, and is a key step toward an environment friendly future for all in 2050, they say. Food waste will need to be halved ad farming practices will also have to improve, according to the study arid out by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC). Without action, the influence of the food system could increase by up to 90%
The authors say that he present food industry has a number of considerable environmental effects including being a great driver of climate change, using up freshwater and causing pollution through heavy use of chemical fertilizer. The study says that thanks to the population and income growth expected between 2010 and 2050, these effects could grow between 50-90%. This could push our world beyond is planetary boundaries, which the authors say represent a “safe operating space for humanity and the international community”.
However, the study finds that no single solution will avoid the dangers, so a combined approach is needed. So when it comes to climate change, the authors looked at what they called a “flexitarian” diet.
“We can eat a range of healthy dies but what they all have in common, according to the latest scientific evidence, is that they are all relatively plant-based,” said Dr. Marco from the University of Oxford. “You can go from a diet that has small amounts of animal products (some might call it a Mediterranean-based diet; we call it a flexitarian diet) over to a vegetarian(素食的) diet—we tried to stay with the most traditional one of these which in our view is the flexitarian one, but even this has only one serving of red meat per week.”
If the world moved to this type of diet, the study found that greenhouse gas emissions(排放物) from farming would be reduced by more than half.
Dr. Marco says that all measures combined can result in keeping both the planet and people healthy.
8. What is the IPCCs study about?
A. The role of modem farming practices.
B. The differences between various diets.
C. The effects of food industry on the planet.
D. The harmful consequence of global warming.
9. What do we know about the recent food system?
A. It is far too wasteful.
B. It has raised farmers’ income.
C. It contributes to the development of farming.
D. It is a key step to an environment-friendly society.
10. What can be called a “flexitarian” diet?
A. Eating a variety of food.
B. Eating a lot of animal products.
C. Eating vegetables grown without fertilizer
D. Eating mostly plant-based meals and some red meat.
11. What benefit will the new diet bring to the world?
A. The water pollution will be controlled in 2050.
B. Less greenhouse gas will be produced.
C. Food waste will be reduced by half.
D. Much more money will be saved.
【答案】8. C 9. A 10. D 11. B

There has long been a view that in ancient times men were the hunters-out getting the neat — while women were gatherers-searching for fruit, vegetables and wild plants.
However, this stereotype has been overthrown by an archaeological discovery. Scientists found the remains of a teenage girl, who lived around 9,000 years ago, at a site in Peru alongside a hunting toolkit(工具箱).There was a knife and fakes(薄片)of rock for removing internal organs(内脏), and other hunting tools.
"It took a strong case to help us recognize that the archaeological pattern indicated actual female hunting behavior," said Randy Has, he lead author of the study.
The remains were recovered in 2018 when an archaeological site was being excavated(挖掘). Actually, Haas' team didn't plan to study female hunters. They found six bodies in a burial pit, a site 3,925 meters above sea level, on a windy plateau in southern Peru. The researchers used a new method to determine the sex of the found bones. The technique analyzed a protein in the remains' tooth enamel(釉质)to tell their gender. It turned out that the remains with an impressive hunting kit belong to a female.
According to the study and previous records of 107 other burial sites throughout North and South America, the team thinks that between 30 percent and 50 percent of big-game hunters who lived more than 10,000 years ago in the Americas could have been women.
However, some people think the hunting tools could have been placed there for symbolic or religious reasons, so the girl might not be a hunter.
In response, Haas pointed out the 9,00-year-old tomb contains a wide variety of tools-some are very rare, some are common — so this suggests that these tools were not some kind of sacrificial(献祭的)offering. Rather, they were the object that individuals used regularly.
Haas said this debate has great significance in today's world. "This insight-for me at least-stresses that many of the gender inequalities we see today do not have a biological basis," he said.
12. What is the word "overthrown" in paragraph 2 closest in meaning to?
A. Established. B. Supported.
C. Explained. D. Challenged.
13. What can we learn about the archaeological study done by Haas’ team?
A. It was aimed at learning about ancient female hunting behavior
B. A total of six bodies were discovered in northern Peru
C. A protein in the remains' tooth enamel was examined to know their gender
D. It suggested that most females in ancient times were hunters.
14. According to Haas, what were the tools found in the 9,000-year-old tomb used for?
A. For daily uses. B. For sacrificial offerings
C. For symbolic practices. D. For religious purposes
15. What do Haas' words imply in the last paragraph?
A. Males should be to blame for gender inequalities.
B. There were fewer gender inequalities in ancient times.
C. Many gender inequalities are not supported by biology.
D. We should ignore biological differences between males and females.
【答案】12. D 13. C 14. A 15. C

根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填人空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。
Can you remember a morning when you’ve woken up to the ring of your alarm clock and wished you could stay in bed? You haven’t slept well, your eyes are bleary(模糊的) and your hair is a mess. Worse, you can’t stop yawning(打哈欠). But why, exactly, do we yawn?____16____ .
One theory is that when we are bored or tired, we just don’t breathe as deeply as we usually do. ____17____Therefore, yawning helps us bring more oxygen into the blood and move more carbon dioxide out of the blood.
Yawning, then, would be an action that we can’t really control to help us control our oxygen and carbon dioxide levels. Sounds good, but other studies have shown that breathing more oxygen does not make us yawn less.____18____. Hmmm. Now what?
___19___. Stretching and yawing may be a way to exercise muscle and joints, increase heart rate, and feel more awake.
Other people believe that yawning is a protective reflex to redistribute he oil-like substance called surfactant that helps keep lungs from drying up and caving in. So, if we didn’t yawn, according to this theory, taking a deep breath would become harder and harder-and that would not be good!
But there is one idea about yawing that everyone knows to be true:____20____. If you yawn in class, you’ll probably notice a few other people will start yawing, too. Even thinking about yawn-ing can get you yawning How many times have you yawned while reading this article? We hope not many!
A. It seems to spread.
B. Yawning seems to be common.
C. No one knows for sure, but there are many theories.
D. Another theory is that yawning stretches he lung and lung tissue.
E. Similarly, breathing more carbon dioxide does not increase yawning.
F. This theory indices yawning like a deep breath, helps us feel fresh.
G. As this theory goes, our bodies take in less oxygen because our breathing has slowed.
