When storm clouds gather, and the wind howls in anger, the natural reaction for most people is to seek shelter. But some run toward the danger. Photographer LiuYijing is one of that rare type as he captures nature's violence.
For the past year, Liu, 21, has traveled about 24, 000 kilometers across 11 provinces chasing and recording thunderstorms. From the first signs- a stronger breeze developing into a turbulent （汹涌的）sky and birds fleeing—he prepares for what appears to be a frightening task. In 2021, he took more than 48, 000 photos, showing the most violence of Mother Nature.
Liu has received a great deal of recognition for his work. His photos captured a complete supercell （雷暴）structure that occurred in the Inner Mongolia autonomous region on Aug 22. This image has been picked as the cover photo for the Advances in Atmospheric Sciences, a key publication in its field.
"It is a typical supercell and I still have a vivid memory about how thrilled I felt the moment it formed. While recording, I couldn’t control myself and kept screaming, 99 he says, adding that the picture and video have spread rapidly on the Internet. The term supercell is even used by meteorologists （气象学家）to describe a type of a lasting thunderstorm that rotates and is usually accompanied by dangerous weather conditions including damaging winds and sometimes tornadoes.
Many social media users nicknamed him "storm chaser”. A Sina Weibo user named Guanwaidelin comments that Liu's photos and videos show how amazing and powerful nature is and how insignificant humans are. Another called Lucia Wei says that before Liu, storm-chasing photographers were rarely heard of in China and that it is a career for those who are not only brave but also armed with sufficient meteorological knowledge.
24. How does LiuYijing respond to the approaching storm?
A. He expresses anger. B. He looks for shelter.
C. He takes photos o£ it. D. He runs away from it.
25. What can we learn about Liu Yijing from the text?
A. He traveled across the world to record tornadoes.
B. He was acknowledged for an image of a supercell.
C. He felt thrilled when his works became a hit.
D. He described the supercell as a great discovery.
26. Which of the following best describes Liu Yijing's job?
A. Boring. B. Well-paid. C. Adventurous. D. Discouraging.
27. What is the text mainly about?
A. A supercell going around. B. A storm showing power.
C. A career exploring space. D. A cameraman chasing storm.
C
The food we eat every day keeps us alive, but it can also bring big health and environmental costs. A recent study finds that small shifts in the food choices could have great benefits to both health and the planet.
Because many foods with a high health burden, including processed meats or red meats, have high environmental costs. Reducing just about 10 percent of a person's daily intake can cut a person's food-based environmental footprint by over 30 percent. Between growing it, packaging it, moving it around, cooking it, and often wasting it, food production makes up about one-fifth to one-third o£ all annual greenhouse gas emissions globally. For an average household, food makes up about as much o£ the greenhouse gas footprint as the electricity.
To learn how to reduce negative impacts of food production and consumption on the planet and the body, researchers first assessed damage related to food. Over the past few decades9 scientists have developed ways o£ doing “life cycle analysesw for specific items and assigned them a hard number to show their environmental impact. Meanwhile, public health scientists were doing similar analyses for human bodies. They carefully examined the links between food and health. They concluded that agriculture is a huge piece of the climate puzzle, and agriculture9 food, and diet are all linked.
We can't stop eating, so what should we do? For some climate challenges, there are relatively straightforward ways. For example, renewable energy sources can already replace much of the energy needed to power buildings, cars, and more.
There's no substitute for food, but shifting what we eat is possible. If all people on the planet are vegans, greenhouse gas emissions from the food system could be cut by more than half a planet of vegetarians would trim food emissions by 44 percent.
28. Why does the author list the figures in paragraph 2?
A. To highlight the harm of gas emission.
B. To advocate the consumption of red meats.
C. To show the environmental impact of food.
D. To illustrate the necessity of cutting food waste.
29. What relationship do scientists show exactly with "life cycle analyses"？
A. Food and human bodies,
B. Climate change and health.
C. Agriculture and human development.
D. Food production and the environment.
30. What does the text suggest people do about food emissions?
A. Eat whatever you want. B. Use fossil energy sources.
C. Reduce food consumption. D. Consume more vegetables.
31. What does the underlined word "trim" mean in paragraph 5?
A. Reduce. B. Release. C. Affect. D. Improve.
D
Traditionally, the work o£ the naturalist has been one of hard work and extreme patience» involving going out into the field, observing or capturing animals and counting them. Now, two teams of scientists have developed a ground-breaking technique to monitor the location of animals on land by collecting their DNA from thin air.
Bohmann, a professor at the University of Copenhagen, led her team to test whether airborne environmental DNA （eDNA） could be used to detect different animal species by collecting samples at the Copenhagen Zoo. They used a £an-like device to suck air, and then extracted the DNA from the air and sequenced（测序）it. Once processed, the DNA sequences were compared to a reference database to identify the animal species. Meanwhile, a second team led by Elizabeth Clare from Queen Mary University of London was conducting a similar experiment at Hamerton Zoo Park in Cambridgeshire. Both teams detected the presence of animals living at the zoos. They also identified animals living in the surrounding areas, including the Eurasian hedgehog which is endangered in the UK.
"Collecting and sequencing airborne eDNA has the potential to transform the way natural ecosystems are studied and surveyed, " says Clare. In the future, it could be used to monitor how species are changing their distributions in response to climate change, or detect the presence o£ insects and species in sensitive environments,
Bohmann explains the challenges that ecologists face without this kind o£ technique. " Earlier in my career, I went to Madagascar hoping to see lots of lemurs（狐猴）. I rarely saw them. Instead, I mostly just heard them jumping their way through trees, " she says. "For many species, it can be a lot of work to detect them by direct observation, especially if they live in closed or inaccessible habitats. "
The technique could shape the way scientists map species and could potentially help them remove the need for camera traps, in-person monitoring and intensive field work. While there is still much to do, such as improving battery life o£ the device to develop the technique, the scientists behind the technique have already made history.
32. What is the new technique intended for?
A. Counting the number of animals. B. Observing the behavior of animals.
C. Detecting the presence of animals. D. Changing the habitats of animals.
33. What is paragraph 2 mainly about?
A. The advantages of a fan-like device.
B. The tests o£ the new eDNA technique.
C. The importance of protecting animals.
D. The methods of collecting eDNA samples.
34. Why are Bohmann's words mentioned in paragraph 4?
A. To prove the danger o£ naturalists5 work.
B. To stress the significance of the new technique.
C. To show the difficulties of studying ecosystems.
D. To present the impact of observations on animals.
35. What will scientists probably do next?
A. Develop camera trap technology.
B. Apply the technique on a large scale.
C. Conduct more in-person monitoring.
D. Extend the lifespan o£ the device's battery.

阅读下面短文, 从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为 多余选项。
Public transport is part of everyday life. When we can move around with ease, we don't just benefit as individuals—we benefit as a society. 36_________
At first the idea might seem unworkable, but we just need to cast our eyes to one of the cities that have already performed it. 37_________ The city's residents pay a small fee for a pass that gives them free access to public transport, but tourists still need full payment. In one sense, this supports the city's transport budget, but it also means there is still a need for expensive ticketing equipment. Wouldn't it be simpler to remove ticketing altogether and instead charge a tourist tax for overnight stays?
In Luxembourg, from 2020, ministers decided to cancel fares on trains, trams and buses to stop the deepening gap between rich and poor. 38___________ In 2019, Delhi’s chief minister announced free bus rides for women to address the fact that women were far less likely to be travelling on buses and trains in the first place. This plan has been rolled out in a region with a 16. 9 million population, which means that free transport isn't only workable for small cities.
39___________ Bosses have the potential to use it as an opportunity to cut staffing. Such concerns made transport unions oppose free travel. Passenger campaign groups should work with transport unions to make a dual （双重的）demand for free urban transport. Ticket clerks who currently perform spot-checks should be trained to provide assistance to anyone who requires help on board. 40_________ But as well as the potential for reducing car usage, it could help make public transport safe, secure and accessible for all.
A. Free travel is good for local tourism.
B. The staff are against free tourist travel.
C. Free travel is not a cure for everything.
D. There is, however, a challenging issue with free travel.
E. Tallinn, capital o£ Estonia, has gone part of the way there.
F. This is not only free to its 600, 000 residents, but also many tourists.
G. It would be a win-win to make public transport free and pay for it out of tax.

As the late afternoon sun beat down on the farm last May, Brandon Leseberg finished feeding his cows and decided to call it a day. As they often did, his two sons, Louie, 6, and Everett, 3 9 followed him.
As they headed for the house ? the two boys ran ahead of their father, who stopped to close the gate. Louie paused at a water tap atop an old well for some drink. Unknown to the Lesebergs 9 the board covering the well had worn and broken. When Louie stepped on it, it collapsed.
Brandon had just unlocked the gate when he turned around and saw only his youngest son.
" Where's Louie? " he shouted.
"He fell in the hole! " Everett said.
Brandon quickly realized what had happened. Noooo! He thought. Louie can barely swim!
He ran to the well and heard Louie hitting the water below. Instinctively, he jumped in. As he fell down the well, Brandon heard Louie screaming. Somehow Brandon managed to grab onto a pipe that ran down the side of the well, which slowed him and kept him from crashing into his son.
Brandon hit the ice-cold water at the bottom of the well. He popped his head out of the water and grabbed Louie, who was panicked, trying to raise his son onto his chest, his body still partly submerged.
"All right, Dad, you can pull us out now, " Louie said.
If only it were that easy. There was only one way out. Looking up to see Everett peering down at them from the top of the well, Brandon shouted, " Everett, you're going to have to be a big boy and save us. Run to the road and stand by the mailbox to get someone to stop. Tell them we need help. And Everett, stay off the road! OK, Everett? "
" OK, Daddy. "
Everett did as he was told.

W： Hi, students! This is Ashley Jacobs, your student government president. I have some important information for everyone about activities on campus this year. I promise that there will be something fun for everyone to do. Do you like sports? I know everyone is a fan of our football team. And now there are two new teams at school this year. We have added a baseball team and a swim team. Or do you enjoy creative activities? Student government created an art club and a music club for people with artistic abilities. Both of these groups have events all year long. The art club hosts painting nights and trips to the local museum, and the music club goes to see shows at the concert hall. And don5t forget about the school newspaper for all the writers out there! We pass out the paper every week for free on campus. Read it to keep up with all of the school news and activities that I announced. I strongly recommend that you join a student organization. It is an easy way to make good friends and have fun.

When storm clouds gather, and the wind howls in anger, the natural reaction for most people is to seek shelter. But some run toward the danger. Photographer LiuYijing is one of that rare type as he captures nature's violence.
For the past year, Liu, 21, has traveled about 24, 000 kilometers across 11 provinces chasing and recording thunderstorms. From the first signs- a stronger breeze developing into a turbulent （汹涌的）sky and birds fleeing—he prepares for what appears to be a frightening task. In 2021, he took more than 48, 000 photos, showing the most violence of Mother Nature.
Liu has received a great deal of recognition for his work. His photos captured a complete supercell （雷暴）structure that occurred in the Inner Mongolia autonomous region on Aug 22. This image has been picked as the cover photo for the Advances in Atmospheric Sciences, a key publication in its field.
"It is a typical supercell and I still have a vivid memory about how thrilled I felt the moment it formed. While recording, I couldn’t control myself and kept screaming, 99 he says, adding that the picture and video have spread rapidly on the Internet. The term supercell is even used by meteorologists （气象学家）to describe a type of a lasting thunderstorm that rotates and is usually accompanied by dangerous weather conditions including damaging winds and sometimes tornadoes.
Many social media users nicknamed him "storm chaser”. A Sina Weibo user named Guanwaidelin comments that Liu's photos and videos show how amazing and powerful nature is and how insignificant humans are. Another called Lucia Wei says that before Liu, storm-chasing photographers were rarely heard of in China and that it is a career for those who are not only brave but also armed with sufficient meteorological knowledge.
24. How does LiuYijing respond to the approaching storm?
A. He expresses anger. B. He looks for shelter.
C. He takes photos o£ it. D. He runs away from it.
25. What can we learn about Liu Yijing from the text?
A. He traveled across the world to record tornadoes.
B. He was acknowledged for an image of a supercell.
C. He felt thrilled when his works became a hit.
D. He described the supercell as a great discovery.
26. Which of the following best describes Liu Yijing's job?
A. Boring. B. Well-paid. C. Adventurous. D. Discouraging.
27. What is the text mainly about?
A. A supercell going around. B. A storm showing power.
C. A career exploring space. D. A cameraman chasing storm.
C
The food we eat every day keeps us alive, but it can also bring big health and environmental costs. A recent study finds that small shifts in the food choices could have great benefits to both health and the planet.
Because many foods with a high health burden, including processed meats or red meats, have high environmental costs. Reducing just about 10 percent of a person's daily intake can cut a person's food-based environmental footprint by over 30 percent. Between growing it, packaging it, moving it around, cooking it, and often wasting it, food production makes up about one-fifth to one-third o£ all annual greenhouse gas emissions globally. For an average household, food makes up about as much o£ the greenhouse gas footprint as the electricity.
To learn how to reduce negative impacts of food production and consumption on the planet and the body, researchers first assessed damage related to food. Over the past few decades9 scientists have developed ways o£ doing “life cycle analysesw for specific items and assigned them a hard number to show their environmental impact. Meanwhile, public health scientists were doing similar analyses for human bodies. They carefully examined the links between food and health. They concluded that agriculture is a huge piece of the climate puzzle, and agriculture9 food, and diet are all linked.
We can't stop eating, so what should we do? For some climate challenges, there are relatively straightforward ways. For example, renewable energy sources can already replace much of the energy needed to power buildings, cars, and more.
There's no substitute for food, but shifting what we eat is possible. If all people on the planet are vegans, greenhouse gas emissions from the food system could be cut by more than half a planet of vegetarians would trim food emissions by 44 percent.
28. Why does the author list the figures in paragraph 2?
A. To highlight the harm of gas emission.
B. To advocate the consumption of red meats.
C. To show the environmental impact of food.
D. To illustrate the necessity of cutting food waste.
29. What relationship do scientists show exactly with "life cycle analyses"？
A. Food and human bodies,
B. Climate change and health.
C. Agriculture and human development.
D. Food production and the environment.
30. What does the text suggest people do about food emissions?
A. Eat whatever you want. B. Use fossil energy sources.
C. Reduce food consumption. D. Consume more vegetables.
31. What does the underlined word "trim" mean in paragraph 5?
A. Reduce. B. Release. C. Affect. D. Improve.
D
Traditionally, the work o£ the naturalist has been one of hard work and extreme patience» involving going out into the field, observing or capturing animals and counting them. Now, two teams of scientists have developed a ground-breaking technique to monitor the location of animals on land by collecting their DNA from thin air.
Bohmann, a professor at the University of Copenhagen, led her team to test whether airborne environmental DNA （eDNA） could be used to detect different animal species by collecting samples at the Copenhagen Zoo. They used a £an-like device to suck air, and then extracted the DNA from the air and sequenced（测序）it. Once processed, the DNA sequences were compared to a reference database to identify the animal species. Meanwhile, a second team led by Elizabeth Clare from Queen Mary University of London was conducting a similar experiment at Hamerton Zoo Park in Cambridgeshire. Both teams detected the presence of animals living at the zoos. They also identified animals living in the surrounding areas, including the Eurasian hedgehog which is endangered in the UK.
"Collecting and sequencing airborne eDNA has the potential to transform the way natural ecosystems are studied and surveyed, " says Clare. In the future, it could be used to monitor how species are changing their distributions in response to climate change, or detect the presence o£ insects and species in sensitive environments,
Bohmann explains the challenges that ecologists face without this kind o£ technique. " Earlier in my career, I went to Madagascar hoping to see lots of lemurs（狐猴）. I rarely saw them. Instead, I mostly just heard them jumping their way through trees, " she says. "For many species, it can be a lot of work to detect them by direct observation, especially if they live in closed or inaccessible habitats. "
The technique could shape the way scientists map species and could potentially help them remove the need for camera traps, in-person monitoring and intensive field work. While there is still much to do, such as improving battery life o£ the device to develop the technique, the scientists behind the technique have already made history.
32. What is the new technique intended for?
A. Counting the number of animals. B. Observing the behavior of animals.
C. Detecting the presence of animals. D. Changing the habitats of animals.
33. What is paragraph 2 mainly about?
A. The advantages of a fan-like device.
B. The tests o£ the new eDNA technique.
C. The importance of protecting animals.
D. The methods of collecting eDNA samples.
34. Why are Bohmann's words mentioned in paragraph 4?
A. To prove the danger o£ naturalists5 work.
B. To stress the significance of the new technique.
C. To show the difficulties of studying ecosystems.
D. To present the impact of observations on animals.
35. What will scientists probably do next?
A. Develop camera trap technology.
B. Apply the technique on a large scale.
C. Conduct more in-person monitoring.
D. Extend the lifespan o£ the device's battery.

阅读下面短文, 从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为 多余选项。
Public transport is part of everyday life. When we can move around with ease, we don't just benefit as individuals—we benefit as a society. 36_________
At first the idea might seem unworkable, but we just need to cast our eyes to one of the cities that have already performed it. 37_________ The city's residents pay a small fee for a pass that gives them free access to public transport, but tourists still need full payment. In one sense, this supports the city's transport budget, but it also means there is still a need for expensive ticketing equipment. Wouldn't it be simpler to remove ticketing altogether and instead charge a tourist tax for overnight stays?
In Luxembourg, from 2020, ministers decided to cancel fares on trains, trams and buses to stop the deepening gap between rich and poor. 38___________ In 2019, Delhi’s chief minister announced free bus rides for women to address the fact that women were far less likely to be travelling on buses and trains in the first place. This plan has been rolled out in a region with a 16. 9 million population, which means that free transport isn't only workable for small cities.
39___________ Bosses have the potential to use it as an opportunity to cut staffing. Such concerns made transport unions oppose free travel. Passenger campaign groups should work with transport unions to make a dual （双重的）demand for free urban transport. Ticket clerks who currently perform spot-checks should be trained to provide assistance to anyone who requires help on board. 40_________ But as well as the potential for reducing car usage, it could help make public transport safe, secure and accessible for all.
A. Free travel is good for local tourism.
B. The staff are against free tourist travel.
C. Free travel is not a cure for everything.
D. There is, however, a challenging issue with free travel.
E. Tallinn, capital o£ Estonia, has gone part of the way there.
F. This is not only free to its 600, 000 residents, but also many tourists.
G. It would be a win-win to make public transport free and pay for it out of tax.

As the late afternoon sun beat down on the farm last May, Brandon Leseberg finished feeding his cows and decided to call it a day. As they often did, his two sons, Louie, 6, and Everett, 3 9 followed him.
As they headed for the house ? the two boys ran ahead of their father, who stopped to close the gate. Louie paused at a water tap atop an old well for some drink. Unknown to the Lesebergs 9 the board covering the well had worn and broken. When Louie stepped on it, it collapsed.
Brandon had just unlocked the gate when he turned around and saw only his youngest son.
" Where's Louie? " he shouted.
"He fell in the hole! " Everett said.
Brandon quickly realized what had happened. Noooo! He thought. Louie can barely swim!
He ran to the well and heard Louie hitting the water below. Instinctively, he jumped in. As he fell down the well, Brandon heard Louie screaming. Somehow Brandon managed to grab onto a pipe that ran down the side of the well, which slowed him and kept him from crashing into his son.
Brandon hit the ice-cold water at the bottom of the well. He popped his head out of the water and grabbed Louie, who was panicked, trying to raise his son onto his chest, his body still partly submerged.
"All right, Dad, you can pull us out now, " Louie said.
If only it were that easy. There was only one way out. Looking up to see Everett peering down at them from the top of the well, Brandon shouted, " Everett, you're going to have to be a big boy and save us. Run to the road and stand by the mailbox to get someone to stop. Tell them we need help. And Everett, stay off the road! OK, Everett? "
" OK, Daddy. "
Everett did as he was told.

W： Well, I was watching the pool from my chair, like I always do. There was a group of kids taking diving lessons in the deep end.
M：Go on …
W：I guess one of the students hit their head on the diving board, because I saw that someone was sinking to the bottom o£ the pool.
M：So, what did you do next?
W：I jumped in the pool after their instructor jumped in and brought the kid back to the surface. It was a young girl, and she had swallowed a lot o£ water.
M： Wow. Did you give her mouth-to-mouth?
W: Of course. Then I told one of the kids to call for an ambulance.
M: Quick thinking!
W：The girl coughed the water up almost immediately, and just like that, it was over. We cleaned the wound and bandaged it up, and the emergency services arrived twenty minutes later.
M: How was she?
W: She had no memory of the past ten minutes. She wanted to go back in the pool. She didn’t even know why her parents were crying.
M: She must have been in shock.

W： Hi, students! This is Ashley Jacobs, your student government president. I have some important information for everyone about activities on campus this year. I promise that there will be something fun for everyone to do. Do you like sports? I know everyone is a fan of our football team. And now there are two new teams at school this year. We have added a baseball team and a swim team. Or do you enjoy creative activities? Student government created an art club and a music club for people with artistic abilities. Both of these groups have events all year long. The art club hosts painting nights and trips to the local museum, and the music club goes to see shows at the concert hall. And don5t forget about the school newspaper for all the writers out there! We pass out the paper every week for free on campus. Read it to keep up with all of the school news and activities that I announced. I strongly recommend that you join a student organization. It is an easy way to make good friends and have fun. Please consider joining one of these groups today.
