This was smething Musk thught abut a lt — hw he might make a difference t the fd industry — but beynd expanding his farm-t-table mvement alng with his restaurant, Musk hadn’t yet brken the cde. Then he went sailing dwn a snwy slpe (坡) and fell ver, breaking his neck. The left side f his bdy was paralyzed.
Musk eventually made a full recvery, but it invlved spending tw mnths n his back, which gave him plenty f time t cme up with a plan.

Aimed at reaching lw-incme families, the Millin Gardens Mvement was inspired by the pandemic, as bth a desire t feel mre cnnected t nature and fd insecurity have been at the frefrnt f s many peple’s lives. “We were getting a lt f inquiries abut gardening frm peple that had never gardened befre,” says Musk. “Peple were lking t garden fr a bunch f reasns: t supplement their budget, t imprve the nutritinal quality f their diets, r just t cure the bredm that came with the lckdwn.”

It als ffers free curses n hw t get the garden grwing and fresh seeds and materials fr the changing grwing seasns. “I grew up in the prjects when I was yung, in what we nw call fd deserts,” says EVE, ne f the many celebrities wh have teamed up with the rganizatin t encurage peple t pick up a free garden. “What I lve abut this is that it’s nt difficult.

The news industry has had a rugh decade. Print readership is steadily drpping, newspapers are clsing, and jurnalists with decades f experience are being laid ff. In respnse, majr newspapers have made significant changes. They’re attempting t cmbat declining reader interest by shrtening stries, creating clickbait (诱饵性标题), and mst especially, using scial media t their advantage.
With the rise f scial media sites, many peple have claimed that we are entering a new age in which news must be delivered in 140 characters r fewer. Peple’s ability t fcus n lng-frm cntent and engage in deep reading has als been declining due t the endless distractins and excessive infrmatin in tday’s wrld. This change in reading habits has led t a preference fr shrt, easily understd news pieces that can be quickly cnsumed. T interest a mre specific and generally yunger readership, newspapers have revised cntent, priritizing articles that are visually appealing instead f having depth.
But, in reality, there is still a demand fr in-depth reprting. In this era f misinfrmatin and clickbait, readers are seeking reliable surces f news that prvide cntext, analysis, and accuntability. Depth reprting explres the fundamental causes, invlves multiple perspectives, and uncvers the hidden truths that shape ur wrld, helping readers get a mre cmprehensive understanding f cmplicated matters.
While scial media have changed the way we cnsume news, the quality f news remains essential fr the public. It’s crucial fr the news industry t achieve a balance between catering t changing reader preferences while als maintaining the integrity (完整性) f news. This means prviding bth quick updates and in-depth analysis, and using scial media t prmte their cntent, but nt at the cst f accuracy r integrity. By ding s, news rganizatins can ensure that they remain relevant and trusted surces f infrmatin in a rapidly changing media envirnment.
28 What prblem des traditinal news industry face?
A. The lack f experienced jurnalists.
B. The shrtage f scial media sites.
C The spread f unreliable infrmatin.
D. The drp f readership.
29. What des the underlined wrd “priritizing” in paragraph 2 prbably mean?
A. Placing imprtance n.B. Cutting dwn.
C. Calling n.D. Crssing ut.
30. What d we knw frm paragraph 3?
A. Peple’s need fr reliable news is decreasing.
B. Scial media has played a key rle in prmting hidden facts.
C. In-depth reprting can imprve readers’ cmprehensin f cmplex issues.
D. Clickbait greatly increases readers’ interests in explring truths.
31. Accrding t the passage, the news industry shuld achieve a balance between ______.
A. prviding quick updates and fcusing n ppular tpics

It was lng therized that peple make decisins based n integrated glbal calculatins that ccur within the frntal crtex(额叶皮层) f the brain, which is cnsidered the seat f higher-rder thinking. Hwever, Yale researchers have fund that three distinct brain circuits frm the frntal crtex cnnecting t different brain regins are invlved in making gd decisins, bad nes, and determining which f thse past chices t stre in memry.
The study f decisin-making in rats may help scientists find the rts f flawed decisin-making cmmn t mental health disrders such as addictin, the authrs say. They used-a new tl t manipulate(操纵) brain circuits in rats while they were making chices between actins that led t them receiving rewards r n rewards. If the rats made the right decisin, ne that ended in a reward, ne f the brain circuits was activated, but anther was activated if the rats made the wrng chice and received n reward. The third circuit stred past experiences and decisins t help the rats with future chices.
Stephanie Grman, lead authr f the research says, “A cmparisn wuld be deciding n a restaurant fr dinner. Fr instance, withut the ‘gd chice’ circuit yu may nt return t the restaurant with gd fd and withut the ‘bad chice’ circuit yu might nt avid the restaurant with bad fd. The third ‘memry’ circuit is crucial in making decisins such as whether t return t the restaurant after receiving ne bad meal after several gd nes.”
Changes in these circuits may help explain a typical feature f addictin—why peple cntinue t make harmful chices even after repeated negative experiences. The Yale researchers previusly shwed that sme f the same brain calculatins were disrupted(扰乱)in animals that had taken methamphetamine. “Because we used a test that is similar t thse used in studies f human decisin making, ur findings have direct relevance t humans and culd aid in the search fr nvel treatments fr substance abuse in humans,” Grman said.
32. Hw was Yale’s research different frm the previus thery?
A. It defined the functin f different brain regins.
B. It identified specific circuits invlved in decisin-making.
C. It fcused n the cnnectin between chices and memries.
D. It highlighted the rle f the frntal crtex in higher-rder thinking.
33. What can be inferred frm Stephanie Grman’s wrds?
A. Memries are related t all the three circuits.
B. Peple base their decisins n persnal preferences.
C. The three circuits are all f vital imprtance in making decisins.
D. The circuit related t rewards is the fundatin f deciding wisely.
34. What des the last paragraph mainly fcus n?
A. The limitatins f the present study.B. A descriptin f the research methd.
C. A pssible reasn fr the study findings.D. The ptential applicatin f the cnclusin.
35. What might be the best title fr the text?
A. Hw peple get addicted and cured
B. Hw making decisins influences ur brain
C. Hw ur brain develps when facing chices
D. Hw the brain helps us make gd decisins and bad nes
