It is reprted in the natinal press that a letter written by Charles Darwin in 1875 has been returned t the Smithsnian Institutin Archives (档案馆) by the FBI after being stlen twice.
“We realized in the mid-1970s that it was missing,” says Effie Kapsalis, head f the Smithsnian Institutin Archives. “It was nted as missing and likely taken by an intern (实习生), frm what the FBI is telling us. Wrd gt ut that it was missing when smene asked t see the letter fr research purpses,” and the intern put the letter back. “The intern likely tk the letter again nce nbdy was watching it. ”
Decades passed. Finally, the FBI received a tip that the stlen dcument was lcated very clse t Washingtn, D. C. Their art crime team recvered the letter but were unable t press charges because the time f limitatins had ended. The FBI wrked clsely with the Archives t determine that the letter was nt fake and definitely Smithsnian’s prperty.
The letter is in fairly gd cnditin, in spite f being ut f the care f trained museum staff fr s lng. “It was luckily in gd shape,” says Kapsalis, “and we just have t d sme minr things in rder t be able t unfld it. It has sme glue n it that has clred it slightly, but nthing that will prevent us frm using it. After it is repaired, we will take digital phts f it and that will be displayed n the Internet. One f ur gals is t get items f high research value r interest t the public nline. ”
It wuld nw be difficult fr an intern, visitr r a thief t steal a dcument like this. “Archiving practices have changed greatly since the 1970s,” says Kapsalis, “and we keep ur high value dcuments in a safe that I dn’t even have access t. ”
24. What happened t Darwin’s letter in the 1970s?

Time spent in a bkshp can be mst enjyable, whether yu are a bk-lver r merely g there t buy a bk as a present. Yu may even have entered the shp just t find shelter frm a sudden shwer. Whatever the reasn, yu can sn becme ttally unaware f yur surrundings.
The desire t pick up a bk with an attractive dust jacket is irresistible, althugh this methd f selectin ught nt t be fllwed, as yu might end up with a rather dull bk.
Yu sn becme interested in sme bk r ther, and usually it is nly much later that yu realize yu have spent far t much time there and must dash ff t keep sme frgtten appintment—withut buying a bk, f curse.
This pprtunity t escape the realities f everyday life is, I think, the main attractin f a bkshp. There are nt many places where it is pssible t d this. A music shp is very much like a bkshp. Yu can wander rund such places t yur heart’s cntent. If it is a gd shp, n assistant will apprach yu with the inevitable greeting: “Can I help yu, sir?” Yu needn’t buy anything yu dn’t want. In a bkshp an assistant shuld remain in the backgrund until yu have finished brwsing. Then and nly then, are his services necessary. Of curse, yu may want t find ut where a particular sectin is, but when he has led yu there, the assistant shuld retire discreetly and lk as if he is nt interested in selling a single bk.
Yu have t be careful nt t be attracted by the variety f bks in a bkshp. It is very easy t enter the shp lking fr a bk n, say ancient cins and cme ut carrying a cpy f the latest best-selling nvel and perhaps a bk abut brass-rubbing-smething which had nly slightly interested yu up till then. This vlume f the subject, hwever, happened t be s well illustrated and the part f the text yu read prved s interesting that yu just had t buy it. This srt f thing can be very dangerus. Apart frm running up a huge accunt, yu can waste a great deal f time wandering frm sectin t sectin.
28. The underlined phrase “dust jacket” means_______.
A. a kind f clthes
B. a paper cver f bk
C. a dusty bk
D. a title f a bk
29. Yu may spend t much time in a bkshp because_______.
A. the dust jackets are very attractive
B. yu start reading ne f the bks
C. it is raining utside
D. yu have t make sure yu wn’t buy a dull bk as a present
30. In a gd bkshp_______.
A. all the bks there are interesting
B. the assistant greets yu in a warm way
C. yur heart is satisfied
D. yu feel that yu are in a music shp
31. The best title fr this passage may be_____.
A. The Attractin f Bkshps
B. Hw t Spend Yur Time
C. Bkshps and Their Assistants
D. Hw t select Bks?
D
Clthing rental is a ht new industry and retailers (零售商) are demanding t get n bard in hpes f attracting green shpper.
But is renting fashin actually mre envirnmentally-friendly than buying it, and if s, hw much mre? Jurnalist and authr Elizabeth Cline investigated (调查) this questin and cncluded that it’s nt as sustainable as it seems.
Take shipping, fr example, which has t g tw ways if an item is rented — receiving and returning. Cline writes that cnsumer transprtatin has the secnd largest carbn ftprint f ur cllective fashin habit after manufacturing.
She writes, “An item rdered nline and then returned can send ut 20 kilgrams f carbn each way, and increases up t 50 kilgrams fr rush shipping. By cmparisn, the carbn impact f a pair f jeans purchased frm a physical stre and washed and wrn at hme is 33. 4 kilgrams, accrding t a 2015 study by Levi’s. ”
Then there’s the burden f washing, which has t happen fr every item when it’s returned, regardless f whether r nt it was wrn. Fr mst rental services, this usually means dry cleaning, a high impact and plluting prcess. All the rental services that Cline lked int have replaced perchlrethylene (氯乙烯), a carcingenic (致癌的) air pllutant, still used by 70 percent f US dry cleaners, with alternatives, althugh these aren’t great either.
Lastly, Cline fears that rental services will increase ur appetite fr fast fashin, simply because it’s s easily accessible. There’s smething called “share washing” that makes peple waste mre precisely because a prduct r service is shared and thus is regarded as mre ec-friendly. Uber is ne example f this, advertised as “a way t share rides and limit wnership. ” and yet “it has been prven t discurage walking, bicycling, and public transprtatin use. ”
Renting clthes is still preferable t buying them cheap and thrwing them in the dustbin after a few wears, but we shuldn’t let the availability f these services make us t satisfied. There’s an even better step — that’s wearing what is already in the clset.
32. What is Elizabeth Cline’s attitude tward clthing rental?
A. Apprving. B. Unfavrable. C. Objective. D. Enthusiastic.
33. The Uber example in Paragraph 6 indicates that .
A. rental services are n the rise
B. clthing rental will be as successful as Uber
C. renting clthes might waste mre than expected
D. renting clthes might make peple lse interest in fast fashin
34. The authr suggests that we shuld .
A. give up renting any clthing
B. purchase inexpensive clthes
C. rent clthes rather than buy them
D. make full use f clthes we’ve pssessed
35. What is the passage mainly abut?
A. Clthing rental is a new fashin.
B. Clthing rental is retailers’ preference.
C. Renting clthes is nt that ec-friendly.
D. Renting-clthes business is in a dilemma.

A Fur-legged Guardian Angel
Snw had just melted ff the grund that April day at ur huse in Regina Beach, Saskatchewan. I had just cleaned up the pl in preparatin fr selling the huse. The year befre, I had lst my jb with the prvincial gvernment, and nw ur financial situatin was grim.

Deep in despair, I sat typing up resumes and cver letters. Out f the crner f my eye I culd see my thirteen-mnth-ld sn, Frrest, as he lay n the carpet, playing near ur big, gentle nanny-dg, Brigitte. It seemed as if Brigitte was always meant t be in this family and she turned ut t be a perfect cmpanin.
Brigitte came t ur huse n Christmas eve when the drbell rang and I was sure sme f my Christmas packages had arrived. I ran t the dr and swung it pen, but n ne was there. I sensed smething and lked dwn, nly t find a beautiful Great Dane sitting there, lking up at me with big, intelligent eyes. There was n way that she culd have rung the drbell by herself, was there? Perhaps, smene had fund the puppy smewhere and left her there, and then rang the drbell and ran away. They accurately guessed I wuld welcme an additinal family member and take care f her.
Thinking f these, I culdn’t help heaving a sigh and went straight back t wrk. Hwever, I hadn’t typed mre than tw sentences when Brigitte began barking furiusly and running back and frth t the sliding glass dr verlking ur pl.
I raced t see what was happening and nticed that the sliding dr was slightly pen. Suddenly, I realized Frrest was nwhere t be seen. In panic, I pened the dr and ran utside.

There I was surprised t see Brigitte, wh was terrified f water, dive int the pl.



Finally, the dctr said Frrest was all right and culd be released frm hspital.

There, I was surprised t witness Brigitte, wh was afraid f water, dive int the pl. Hrrified, I caught sight f Frrest’s yellw sleeper. Brigitte was bravely ding her best t keep him aflat by clenching nt his sleeper with her muth. At the same time, she was desperately attempting t swim twards the shallw end. It was nly then that I realized that Frrest had smehw pened the dr, wandered ut and fallen int the pl. In a split secnd, I plunged in, lifted my precius baby ut and carried him inside. My hands shaking, I called 911 and we were immediately rushed t the hspital, where the dctr kept him under bservatin fr ne night.
Finally, the dctr declared that Frrest was all right and he culd be released frm hspital. Back hme, nce Brigitte saw him, she barked with bvius jy and refused t let Frrest ut f her sight. She eventually settled dwn, but remained dedicated t Frrest and fllwed him everywhere, cncerned abut his safety. Even when Frrest was asleep, Brigitte crammed herself under the crib, keeping a watchful eye. Our dg was truly an angel, erasing any despair I might have felt abut lsing ur hme. A huse culd always be replaced, but knwing we had each ther was the greatest blessing f all. I was grateful that she was a part f ur lives, and I wuld never give her up.
