With the help f a new mbile applicatin called Farm Assistant, develped by Wu Zeyin, farmers in Btswana can make their wrk much easier.
Wu, an 11-year-ld pupil frm Hubei Prvince, mved t Btswana with his family seven years ag. During the past years living in the cuntry, he fund that the quantity f fruit and vegetables sld at lcal supermarkets was very limited, and the quality was pr. Sme vegetables weren't ripe, such as small carrts and green tmates, and they were quite expensive.
Trpical savanna （草原） and desert climates are typical in, mst parts f the cuntry, making it difficult t grw cmmn crps. Drught-tlerant species f crn, srghum and beans are als uncmmn. Fr a lng time, Btswana had t imprt many grains, fruits and vegetables frm neighburing cuntries, such as Suth Africa, t meet the needs f its peple.
Btswana has made a series f cperative arrangements with China t get rid f fd shrtages. In July last year, a pilt prject t grw China's water-saving and drught-tlerant rice was successfully undertaken in Gabrne, the capital f Btswana, which brught Wu sme new ideas n lcal agriculture.
“At that time, I was preparing fr the first Yuth Artificial Intelligence and Future Media Glbal Innvatin Challenge,” he said, “When I gt the news, I gave up my first plan f develping a persnal time management app, and decided t develp an app fr agriculture.”
The app supprts eight crps cmmnly grwn lcally, including tmates, ptates, nins, crn, carrts, cabbage, eggplant and radishes. Farmers wh use the applicatin can click n the crp picture t see its planting nde （节点） , watering needs, ripening time, seed price, selling price and prductin. After planting the seeds, farmers click the timer t start, and the applicatin reminds them what t d at each stage.
When asked why he wanted t help lcal farmers here, Wu qutes an ld saying in China: “Give a man a fish and yu feed him fr a day; teach him hw t fish and yu feed him fr a lifetime.”
24. Which can be the main reasn fr Btswana's fd shrtage?
A. Limited supplies in lcal markets. B. Unfavurable climate cnditins.
C. Lack f advanced farming techniques. D. Frequent threats frm natural disasters.
15. What des the underlined wrd “undertaken” mean in Paragraph 4?
A. Launched. B. Remved. C. Adapted. D. Prmted.
26. Hw can Wu's applicatin make farmers' wrk easier?
A. It imprves lcal planting envirnment. B. It identifies the cmmnly grwn crps.
C. It teaches farmers when t plant the seeds. D. It prvides basic infrmatin f the crps.
27. Which f the fllwing can be the best title fr the text?
A. Btswana's Fd Prblem Slved by a New App
B. Technlgy Is Making a Difference in Btswana
C. Gifted Chinese Teenager Helps Btswana Farmers

“Practice makes perfect” is a very ppular expressin. Hwever, can we take this saying literally? Many scientific studies have sught t either prve r disprve this idea.
One ppular thery is that if a persn practises fr at least 10, 000 hurs, they will reach “perfectin”, r becme an expert in their field. This thery was made famus by Malclm Gladwell in his 2008 best-selling bk, Outliers: The Stry f Success. He mentined the music grup The Beatles and Micrsft c-creatr Bill Gates. Althugh they all seemed t have lts f natural talent, they als clearly put in ver 10, 000 hurs f practice befre they became successful.
Gladwell's wrk was largely based n research dne by Anders Ericssn, wh argued that Gladwell misinterpreted his research. Firstly, Ericssn stated that 10, 000 hurs was an average figure. Sme peple needed far fewer than 10, 000 hurs, and thers many mre. Mre imprtantly, Ericssn said that just practising a lt was nt enugh; the type and quality f practice was als essential. He went n t explain the imprtance f “deliberate practice”, which is when a persn practises a specific part f a skill in depth rather than practising a skill as a whle.
A mre recent study frm Princetn University stated that practice nly accunted fr up t 26% f reaching an expert level. Many peple say that natural talent has a large influence n becming an expert. Anther natural factr is physical superirity, which is especially evident in sprts. IQ, persnality attitude, and starting age are decisive, t. But becming an expert desn't equal instant success, which als relies n scial and envirnmental factrs.
In cnclusin, practice may nt make perfect, but deliberate practice has been shwn t lead t significant imprvement. Based n Ericssn's research, here are sme tips n hw t practise effectively: be mtivated; make specific and realistic gals; wrk utside yur cmfrt zne; be cnsistent and persistent; and get plenty f rest! Fr thse wanting t becme an expert in smething, remember that being mtivated is key-enjy what yu d and fllw yur passins.
28. Hw did Gladwell supprt his idea?
A. By listing numbers. B. By using examples.
C. By interviewing famus peple. D. By mentining ther researchers.
29 Which f the fllwing may Ericssn disagree with?
A. Practice alne is far frm enugh.
B. Abut 10, 000 hurs f practice leads t success.
C. Practice hurs vary frm persn t persn.
D. Deliberate practice is much mre effective.
30 What des paragraph 4 mainly talk abut?
A. The rle f practice. B. Factrs in creating experts.
C. The imprtance f natural talent. D. Warnings fr experts.
31. What is the authr's attitude t the idea “Practice makes perfect”?
A. Favrable. B. Intlerant. C. Dubtful. D. Neutral.
D
Delivering medical supplies t hard-t-reach places has been an issue fr years. Wrldwide, mre than tw billin peple lack-aceess t essential life-saving supplies, such as bld and vaccines（疫苗）. In the African natin f Rwanda, fr example, several remte health clinics d nt have sufficient quantities f bld and ther healthcare prducts. A cmpany called Zipline is trying t address this prblem. It uses drnes（无人机） t transprt medical supplies arund Rwanda. A drne can nw deliver medicine in 30 minutes.
Drnes are als assisting emergency rganizatins after natural disasters. In 2015, fr example, a pwerful hurricane destryed thusands f buildings in the Pacific island natin f Vanuatu. Arund 75, 000 peple lst their hmes, and at least-15 died. After the strm, drnes phtgraphed the damage. These surveys helped emergency wrkers assess the situatin quickly and answer imprtant questins: Which areas were hardest hit? Were crps damaged? What rads were affected?
Drnes are als helping t prtect wildlife ppulatins in parts f Africa and Asia. Every year, pachers（偷猎者） kill thusands f elephants, rhins, and ther endangered animals. T stp them, the envirnmental rganizatin Wrld Wildlife Fund is using drnes t find where pachers are hiding and if they are carrying weapns. Equipped with infrared vide cameras, drnes can easily identify peple and animals at night. These drnes are nt nly helpful, they are affrdable.
As well as finding pachers, drnes can be used t track animals. Scientists at Liverpl Jhn Mres University （LJMU） plan t emply drnes fr an ambitius cnservatin prject: dcumenting the wrld's wildlife. The lng-term prject will start with scientific surveys f animal ppulatins. And animal species can then be identified using special sftware.
Irnically（讽刺地）, a tl riginally created fr military use is increasingly being used t save lives instead f taking them. Drnes have the ptential t prvide slutins that will benefit bth humans and animals.
32. What des the text fcus n?
A. Imprtance f saving lives. B. Develpment f drnes.
C. Applicatins f drnes. D. Ways t prtect animals.
33. What can drnes be used fr accrding t Paragraph 2?
A. Helping predict disasters. B. Prviding data fr evaluatin.
C. Organizing emergency wrkers. D. Reprting lcal weather.
34. What d the scientists at LJMU intend t d?
A. Track pachers. B. Design new practical drnes.
C. Recrd wild animals in detail. D. Develp an assessing sftware.
35. What can be inferred abut drnes?
A. They need t be fitted with vide cameras. B. They are unavailable t rdinary peple.
C. They shuld be limited t military use. D. They have a prmising prspect.

Gardening requires a lt f physical labr extending frm light exercise t heavy wrk. Bending, digging, lifting tls, carrying things and mving frm time t time can burn calries and build muscles.

With the help f a new mbile applicatin called Farm Assistant, develped by Wu Zeyin, farmers in Btswana can make their wrk much easier.
Wu, an 11-year-ld pupil frm Hubei Prvince, mved t Btswana with his family seven years ag. During the past years living in the cuntry, he fund that the quantity f fruit and vegetables sld at lcal supermarkets was very limited, and the quality was pr. Sme vegetables weren't ripe, such as small carrts and green tmates, and they were quite expensive.
Trpical savanna （草原） and desert climates are typical in, mst parts f the cuntry, making it difficult t grw cmmn crps. Drught-tlerant species f crn, srghum and beans are als uncmmn. Fr a lng time, Btswana had t imprt many grains, fruits and vegetables frm neighburing cuntries, such as Suth Africa, t meet the needs f its peple.
Btswana has made a series f cperative arrangements with China t get rid f fd shrtages. In July last year, a pilt prject t grw China's water-saving and drught-tlerant rice was successfully undertaken in Gabrne, the capital f Btswana, which brught Wu sme new ideas n lcal agriculture.
“At that time, I was preparing fr the first Yuth Artificial Intelligence and Future Media Glbal Innvatin Challenge,” he said, “When I gt the news, I gave up my first plan f develping a persnal time management app, and decided t develp an app fr agriculture.”
The app supprts eight crps cmmnly grwn lcally, including tmates, ptates, nins, crn, carrts, cabbage, eggplant and radishes. Farmers wh use the applicatin can click n the crp picture t see its planting nde （节点） , watering needs, ripening time, seed price, selling price and prductin. After planting the seeds, farmers click the timer t start, and the applicatin reminds them what t d at each stage.
When asked why he wanted t help lcal farmers here, Wu qutes an ld saying in China: “Give a man a fish and yu feed him fr a day; teach him hw t fish and yu feed him fr a lifetime.”
24. Which can be the main reasn fr Btswana's fd shrtage?
A. Limited supplies in lcal markets. B. Unfavurable climate cnditins.
C. Lack f advanced farming techniques. D. Frequent threats frm natural disasters.
15. What des the underlined wrd “undertaken” mean in Paragraph 4?
A. Launched. B. Remved. C. Adapted. D. Prmted.
26. Hw can Wu's applicatin make farmers' wrk easier?
A. It imprves lcal planting envirnment. B. It identifies the cmmnly grwn crps.
C. It teaches farmers when t plant the seeds. D. It prvides basic infrmatin f the crps.
27. Which f the fllwing can be the best title fr the text?
A. Btswana's Fd Prblem Slved by a New App

“Practice makes perfect” is a very ppular expressin. Hwever, can we take this saying literally? Many scientific studies have sught t either prve r disprve this idea.
One ppular thery is that if a persn practises fr at least 10, 000 hurs, they will reach “perfectin”, r becme an expert in their field. This thery was made famus by Malclm Gladwell in his 2008 best-selling bk, Outliers: The Stry f Success. He mentined the music grup The Beatles and Micrsft c-creatr Bill Gates. Althugh they all seemed t have lts f natural talent, they als clearly put in ver 10, 000 hurs f practice befre they became successful.
Gladwell's wrk was largely based n research dne by Anders Ericssn, wh argued that Gladwell misinterpreted his research. Firstly, Ericssn stated that 10, 000 hurs was an average figure. Sme peple needed far fewer than 10, 000 hurs, and thers many mre. Mre imprtantly, Ericssn said that just practising a lt was nt enugh; the type and quality f practice was als essential. He went n t explain the imprtance f “deliberate practice”, which is when a persn practises a specific part f a skill in depth rather than practising a skill as a whle.
A mre recent study frm Princetn University stated that practice nly accunted fr up t 26% f reaching an expert level. Many peple say that natural talent has a large influence n becming an expert. Anther natural factr is physical superirity, which is especially evident in sprts. IQ, persnality attitude, and starting age are decisive, t. But becming an expert desn't equal instant success, which als relies n scial and envirnmental factrs.
In cnclusin, practice may nt make perfect, but deliberate practice has been shwn t lead t significant imprvement. Based n Ericssn's research, here are sme tips n hw t practise effectively: be mtivated; make specific and realistic gals; wrk utside yur cmfrt zne; be cnsistent and persistent; and get plenty f rest! Fr thse wanting t becme an expert in smething, remember that being mtivated is key-enjy what yu d and fllw yur passins.
28. Hw did Gladwell supprt his idea?
A. By listing numbers. B. By using examples.
C. By interviewing famus peple. D. By mentining ther researchers.
29 Which f the fllwing may Ericssn disagree with?
A. Practice alne is far frm enugh.
B. Abut 10, 000 hurs f practice leads t success.
C. Practice hurs vary frm persn t persn.
D. Deliberate practice is much mre effective.
30 What des paragraph 4 mainly talk abut?
A. The rle f practice. B. Factrs in creating experts.
C. The imprtance f natural talent. D. Warnings fr experts.
31. What is the authr's attitude t the idea “Practice makes perfect”?
A. Favrable. B. Intlerant. C. Dubtful. D. Neutral.

Delivering medical supplies t hard-t-reach places has been an issue fr years. Wrldwide, mre than tw billin peple lack-aceess t essential life-saving supplies, such as bld and vaccines（疫苗）. In the African natin f Rwanda, fr example, several remte health clinics d nt have sufficient quantities f bld and ther healthcare prducts. A cmpany called Zipline is trying t address this prblem. It uses drnes（无人机） t transprt medical supplies arund Rwanda. A drne can nw deliver medicine in 30 minutes.
Drnes are als assisting emergency rganizatins after natural disasters. In 2015, fr example, a pwerful hurricane destryed thusands f buildings in the Pacific island natin f Vanuatu. Arund 75, 000 peple lst their hmes, and at least-15 died. After the strm, drnes phtgraphed the damage. These surveys helped emergency wrkers assess the situatin quickly and answer imprtant questins: Which areas were hardest hit? Were crps damaged? What rads were affected?
Drnes are als helping t prtect wildlife ppulatins in parts f Africa and Asia. Every year, pachers（偷猎者） kill thusands f elephants, rhins, and ther endangered animals. T stp them, the envirnmental rganizatin Wrld Wildlife Fund is using drnes t find where pachers are hiding and if they are carrying weapns. Equipped with infrared vide cameras, drnes can easily identify peple and animals at night. These drnes are nt nly helpful, they are affrdable.
As well as finding pachers, drnes can be used t track animals. Scientists at Liverpl Jhn Mres University （LJMU） plan t emply drnes fr an ambitius cnservatin prject: dcumenting the wrld's wildlife. The lng-term prject will start with scientific surveys f animal ppulatins. And animal species can then be identified using special sftware.
Irnically（讽刺地）, a tl riginally created fr military use is increasingly being used t save lives instead f taking them. Drnes have the ptential t prvide slutins that will benefit bth humans and animals.
32. What des the text fcus n?
A. Imprtance f saving lives. B. Develpment f drnes.
C. Applicatins f drnes. D. Ways t prtect animals.
33. What can drnes be used fr accrding t Paragraph 2?
A. Helping predict disasters. B. Prviding data fr evaluatin.
C. Organizing emergency wrkers. D. Reprting lcal weather.
34. What d the scientists at LJMU intend t d?
A. Track pachers. B. Design new practical drnes.
C. Recrd wild animals in detail. D. Develp an assessing sftware.
35. What can be inferred abut drnes?
A. They need t be fitted with vide cameras. B. They are unavailable t rdinary peple.
C. They shuld be limited t military use. D. They have a prmising prspect.
