Popularization has in some cases changed the original meaning of emotional intelligence. Many people now misunderstand emotional intelligence as almost everything desirable in a person's makeup that cannot be measured by an id test, such as character, motivation, confidence, mental stability, optimism and “people skills.” Research has shown that emotional skills may contribute to some of these qualities, but most of them move far beyond skill-based emotional intelligence.
We prefer to describe emotional intelligence as a specific set of skills that can be used for either good or bad purposed. The ability to accurately understand how others are feeling may be used by a doctor to find how best to help her patients, while a cheater might use it to control potential victims. Being emotionally intelligent does not necessarily make one a moral person.
Although popular beliefs regarding emotional intelligence run far ahead of what research can reasonably support, the overall effects of the publicity have been more beneficial than harmful. The most positive aspect of this popularization is a new and much needed emphasis on emotion by employers, educators and others interest cd in promoting social well-being. The popularization of emotional intelligence has helped both the public and researchers re-evaluate the functionality of emotions and how they serve people adaptively in everyday life.
Although the continuing popular appeal of emotional intelligence is desirable, we hope that such attention will excite a greater interest in the scientific and scholarly study of emotion. It is our hope that in coming decades, advanced in science will offer new perspective from which to study how people manage their lives. Emotional intelligence, with its focus on both head and heart, may serve to point us in the right direction.
28. What is a common misunderstanding of emotional intelligence
A. It can be measured by an id test. B. It helps to exercise a person's mind.
C. It includes a set of emotional skills. D. It refers to a person's positive qualities.
29. Why does the author mention “doctor” and “cheater” in paragraph 2
A. To explain a rule. B. To clarify a concept C. To present a fact. D. To make a prediction.
30. What is the author's attitude to the popularization of emotional intelligence
A. Favorable. B. Intolerant. C. Doubtful. D. Unclear.
31. What does the last paragraph mainly talk about concerning emotional intelligence
A. Its appeal to the public. B. Expectations for future studies.
C. Its practical application. D. Scientists with new perspective.

Plenty, an agricultural technology company in San Francisco, is reinventing farms and farming. cater store, the company's chief science officer says the future of the farms will be vertical（垂直的） and indoors, so food can be grown anywhere in the world all scar round, and farms will employ robots and artificial intelligence（AI）to improve the quality of growth for fruits and vegetables. Plenty does all these things but uses 95 % less water and 99 % less land.
As AI is on the rise, farmers on flat farms have been using new tools to make farming better or easier. In recent years, they have been using drones（无人机） and robots to improve efficiency. I lowever, flat farms still use a lot of water and land, while a Plenty's vertical farm can produce the same quantity of fruits and vegetables as a 720-acre flat farm, but on only 2 acres.
Plenty's climate-controlled indoor farm has rows of plants growing vertically. There are LED lights shining on them, robots moving them around, and AI managing all the variables of water, temperature, and light. The conditions are so good that the production per acre is 400 times higher than that of an outdoor farm.
Another advantage of vertical farming is that the fruits and vegetables are grown at a ware house（仓库） nearby instead of 1, 000 miles away or more from a city. That means many transportation miles arc saved. Which can reduce millions of tons of greenhouse gases every year and the price of fruits and vegetables will also go down. Imported（进口的） fruits and vegetables are more expensive, so poor people in society are at an extreme disadvantage. Vertical farms could cope with this problem.
Also. Plenty's farms grow organic food without using herbicides（除草剂） or pesticide. They recycle all the water used, even catching the water in the air. The best farm in San Francisco is using 100 % renewable energy.
Moreover, all the packaging is 100 % recyclable, made of recycled plastic and specially designed to keep the food fresh longer to reduce food waste. Ideally, the company will branch out, opening farms across the country and beyond.
32. What can we learn from the first two paragraphs
A. Robots and all used on vertical farms can quicken the growth of plants.
B. Fruits and vegetables grown on vertical farms are more tasty.
C. Both land and water can be saved on vertical farms.
D. Plenty is the first company to grow crops on vertical farms.
33. What does the underlined phrase “cope with” in paragraph 4 mean
A. Register. B. Improve. C. Present. D. Solve.
34. What can we infer about Plenty's future vertical farms from the text
A. They will have more farms. B. They will only be run by robots and AI.
C. They will bring about terrible problems. D. They will completely take the place of flat farms.
35. What is the main purpose of the text
A. To question the possibility of vertical farming.
B. To show the technologies of vertical farming.
C. To discuss the potential problems of vertical farming.
D. To introduce and explain the benefits of vertical farming.

In addition, wearing high-visibility clothing is another way to improve your safety when cycling on the roads.
40 It can help you reduce your carbon footprints. Not giving off greenhouse gases into the atmosphere is better for the planet and your own environment.
