Singapore is known as a world’s most highly developed country, with well-equipped apartments. But for one man, that couldn’t be further from the place he called home — a shelter in one of the country’s forests.
On meting Oh Go Seng, the first thing that strikes you is the bright light in his eyes. He wears his 79 years very lightly, looking in far better shape than many people half his age.
Mr. Oh grew up together with his family in Sungei Tengah, a local kampong or village. In the 1980s, however, these kampongs were knocked down, to make way for new high-rise buildings. Most kampong residents were offered new homes by the government, but Mr. Oh was unable to get a place of his own. His brother, however, did get a government flat and Mr. Oh was invited to live there, but he eventually moved out as he said he did not want to bother the family. So, he headed back to a forest close to where his old home once stood and started to spend nights in a shelter.
Upon getting close to the shelter, you see ashes in the doorway from the open fire that Mr. Oh would cook on. The garden near his tent is where he would grow his own food. The towering jackfruit tree over his tent, he says, provided enough shade, and he never felt uncomfortable.
Loneliness was never a problem either, he says. He kept himself busy taking care of his garden, although that, he adds, was made easy by the good growing conditions. The worst aspect of living in the forest, he says, was the mice. They would find their way into his shelter and bite holes in his clothes.
In February this year — on the first day of the Lunar New Year, Mr. Oh was given a new home to live in. He now works as a driver, transporting foreign workers from one job to another, and sometimes does gardening work, he says.
24. What do we know about Mr. Oh from the first two paragraphs
A. He lives in a very good apartment.
B. He loves his well-equipped shelter
C. He looks young for his age.
D. He is very fond of light clothes.

A. He preferred to live alone in nature.
B. He didn’t want to trouble his family.
C. He didn’t want to work with his family.
D. He had an argument with his family.
27. What is Mr. Oh’s attitude towards living in the shelter
A. Positive. B. Upset. C. Worried. D. Unconcerned
C
In order to help discover spoilage(变质) and reduce food waste for supermarkets and consumers, researchers have developed new low-cost, smart phone-linked, eco-friendly spoilage sensors for meat and fish packaging.
One in three UK consumers throw away food just because it reaches the use-by date, but 60% (4.2 million tons) of the 12.5 billion-worth of food we throw away each year is safe to eat.
The researchers, whose findings were published in ACS Sensors, say the sensors could also finally replace the use-by date, which is now widely used to tell if food is fresh and eatable.
The sensors cost two US cents each to make. Known as “paper-based electrical gas sensors (PEGS)”, they sense spoilage gases like ammonia (a poisonous gas with a strong unpleasant smell) in meat and fish products. The information provided by the electronic nose is received by a smart phone, and then you can know whether the food is fresh and safe to eat.
Lead author Dr. Firat Guder, of Imperial’s Department of Bioengineering, said, “Although they’re designed to keep us safe, use-by dates can lead to eatable food being thrown away. They don’t always reflect its actual freshness. In fact, people often get sick from food-bore diseases due to poor storage, even when an item is within its use-by date.
“These sensors are cheap enough so we hope to see supermarkets using them within three years. Our goal is to use PEGS in food packaging to reduce unnecessary food waste.”
The authors hope that PEGS could have applications (应用) beyond food processing, like sensing chemicals in agriculture, air quality, and detecting disease markers in breath.
28. What is the function of PEGS according to the text
A. To improve the service of stores.
B. To help supermarkets store foods.
C. To improve the taste of food products.
D. To help people test food freshness.
29. What role does the smartphone play while PEGS are functioning
A. It acts as an electronic nose.
B. It reads the information collected by PEGS.
C. It discovers the spoilage gases from foods.
D. It helps print the gas sensors onto paper.
30. What does Dr. Firat Guder say about use-by dates
A. They are not completely reliable. B. They can help reduce food waste.
C. They are not accepted by consumers. D. They are based on scientific research.
31. What does the author mainly talk about in the text
A. The process of researching spoilage sensors.
B. A new technology in packaging to reduce food waste.
C. Use-by dates’ influence on supermarkets and consumers.
D. Various applications of the electronic nose in food storage.
D
In 1995, a middle-aged man named McArthur Wheeler robbed two banks in Pittsburgh during the day. He didn’t wear a mask — he even smiled at the security cameras before leaving each bank. That night, the police arrested him. When officers showed Wheeler the camera tapes, he looked shocked and said, “But I used the juice!” Wheeler thought rubbing lemon juice on his skin would make him invisible to the cameras. He knew lemon juice works as “invisible ink” — you can’t see what’s written with it unless you heat the paper. So he believed he wouldn’t show up on the tapes if he stayed away from heat.
This strange case got the attention of David Dunning, a psychologist at Cornell University. He asked his graduate student Justin Kruger to help figure out what was going on. They found that almost everyone thinks their abilities (like social skills or thinking skills) are good, but some people mistakenly believe their abilities are much better than they really are. This wrong sense of confidence is now called the “Dunning-Kruger effect.”
To study this, Dunning and Kruger did experiments with college students. In one test, they asked students questions about grammar, logic and jokes. Then they had the students guess their scores and how they did compared to others. The students who scored the lowest overestimated their abilities the most. For example, those at the bottom thought they did better than two-thirds of the other students!
It’s common for people to overestimate their abilities. But the problem with unskilled people is that they not only make bad choices — they also can’t tell they’re making mistakes. In a year-long study, good students could better guess their future exam scores if they got feedback (反馈) on their grades. But poor students still didn’t realize they were doing badly, even when they got clear, repeated feedback. Instead of thinking about their mistakes, they insisted they were right. As Charles Darwin wrote in The Descent of Man (1871): “Ignorance more frequently begets confidence than does knowledge.”
Interestingly, very smart people also can’t assess their abilities accurately. Just as D and F students overestimate their skills, A students underestimate theirs. The difference is: if given helpful feedback, skilled people can adjust their self-assessment — but unskilled people can’t.
32. Why did McArthur Wheeler rub lemon juice on his skin before robbing the banks
A. He wanted to protect his skin from the sun.
B. He thought it would make cameras unable to catch him.
C. He used it to hide the smell of his sweat in the bank.
D. He believed it could help him stay calm during the robbery.
33. Which of the following statements about the Dunning-Kruger effect is TRUE
A. The effect is true for everyone in daily life.
B. It suggests that most people lack abilities.
C. Some people are overconfident about their abilities.
D. The conclusion is made based on many bank robberies.
34. The underlined word “begets” in Paragraph 4 can be replaced by “________”.
A. results in B. makes use of C. brings down D. breaks away from
35. What can we infer from the passage
A. True knowledge means knowing how much you don’t know.
B. It’s impossible for people to judge their real ability level.
C. Wrong confidence is the main reason why people fail.
D. People with great abilities often have a low opinion of themselves.

Cold weather is good for you
With winter approaching. people begin to complain about cold weather. 36 There’s plenty to love about cold weather. And there’s plenty of evidence that cooler temperatures can be part of a healthy life.
First, cooler temperatures can help you lose weight. It can also help you sleep better. You might feel uncomfortable at first if you cool your bedroom down. But if you, for example, switch your bedroom temperature from 72 down to 62 degrees gradually over a few weeks, your body will adjust. 37
I have long kept my winter house temperature at 62 degrees. How did I find that number Well, I experimented on myself about eight years ago. 38 I started at 66 and turned it down one degree every few days until 60. I found when the temperature was colder than 62, I couldn’t focus. But 62 was perfect Another benefit for me was that it also kept me clear-headed while working at home.
Interestingly, science also says 62 degrees is the magic number for brainwork. 39 It said 62 degrees was the temperature at which the schoolboy subjects of the study functioned perfect. And while we’re speaking of work and school, other research shows that people study better when the weather outside is “bad”.
40 But according to a Harvard Health Letter from 2010, proper cold temperatures could be good for skin because it trains blood vessels in the skin to be responsive. So, rosy cheeks! There’s no reason to be afraid of winter weather. Hug it and you, too, can enjoy the season.
A. I recently read a 1972 study.
B. And you’ll save money on energy costs as well.
C. Many people like to use cold water to wash their face.
D. At that time, I worked at home and liked warm temperature.
E. Most of us think cold weather leads to dry skin and wrinkling.
F. The reason was that I hated spending money on heating bills.
G. But if you’re active and healthy, it doesn’t have to be a negative thing.

阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
It was in the 1930s, and things were tough. My dad had drowned in Pitt Lake five years earlier. Mum had a hard time raising us on her own in our small community of New Westminster, BC.
Looking back, I realize what Mum went through sending us kids to school Every morning, she would put a new piece of cardboard in our shoes because the bottom parts were worn out. When we got home, Mum would have bread ready for us. Constant moving was typical for my family in those times. Rent was 25 dollars a month, but Mum couldn’t pay it, and we knew we would be homeless right after Christmas on the first of January.
Christmas was getting closer, and we were offered a twenty-five-dollar Christmas fund from social services. A local official came to our house and searched it from top to bottom to be sure we didn’t have any food hidden away. When he didn’t find any, he issued the cheque(支票) to Mum.
Mum said that instead of buying food, she would use the 25 dollars to pay back rent, to make sure all of us a roof over our heads for a little while longer. She told us then there would be nothing for Christmas.
Unknown to Mum, I had been selling Christmas trees, cleaning snow, and doing part-time jobs to earn enough money to buy a new pair of boots. Boots that weren’t patched (打补丁); boots with no cardboard in the shoes. I knew exactly which boots I wanted. They were ten-inch Top Genuine Pierre Paris, and they had a price of 23 dollars.
Well, the big day came on the afternoon of Christmas Eve. I was excited as I hurried up the road to the shoe store, but on the way, I noticed a house with Christmas lights and decorations. It was then that I realized that at our house, we had no lights, no decorations, nor any money for Christmas meals. I knew that we would have no turkey or ham for Christmas, and I felt sad.

As I continued walking, I began to reconsider my plan.
