The Twenty-three-year-old Mumbai girl Vidhi Bubna is offering India’s first and only diving grant to explore the marine ecosystem.
Vidhi’s first diving experience turned out to be a heartbreaking one．While she expected a lot of colors underwater as she had seen on TV, Vidhi came across all white corals(珊瑚), which means they are almost dead from being bleached(褪色).
“It was very sad and I just started crying after coming out of the water,” she says.
Vidhi, an economics graduate from Ashoka University, did not enjoy working with numbers and turned to writing about social issues, including women’s rights and minority issues.
As an adventure lover, Vidhi went diving to explore the underwater beauty last year. Her disappointment at seeing dying corals led to the start of Coral Warriors, a non-profit organisation that aims to raise awareness of marine protection and climate change.
“Nobody knows about climate change till they see it,”Vidhi says. The Mumbai-based organisation offers India’s first and only diving grant．The grant sponsors level-one scuba diving education in any location of their choice in India.
While there is no specific standard, Vidhi says the selection process is strict, choosing candidates who are passionate about climate change and seeing that they do something of their choice．Four candidates have been awarded the grant so far and the organisation hopes to find at least five people every year.
“After the candidates return, we expect them to work on a climate change project of their choice, create communities, and work to create awareness and drive action-centric projects,” she explains.
Prior to starting Coral Warriors, Vidhi was hosting free online workshops to spread awareness of marine biodiversity and climate change, and has reached about 5,000 people through them.
As a next step, Vidhi is planning to work on documentaries with high-quality underwater images and videos, considering not many can afford or have the courage to go diving to see what is happening underwater.
24．How did Vidhi feel on her first diving
A．Excited． B．Upset． C．Awesome． D．Awkward.
25．Why did Vidhi set up Coral Warriors
A．To focus more attention on social issues.
B．To further explore the underwater beauty.
C．To fuel people’s enthusiasm for adventure.
D．To make an appeal for marine conservation.
26．What are candidates expected to do
A．To help promote people’s sense of community.
B．To choose whatever they are passionate about.
C．To meet specific and strict select ion standards.
D．To undertake activities re levant to climate change.
27．What will Vidhi do to protect marine biodiversity
A．Shoot documentaries． B．Tackle climate change.
C．Encourage people to dive． D．Host free online workshops.

Cichlids and stingrays(慈鲷和黄貂鱼) can perform simple plus and subtraction(减法) in the number range of one to five．This has been shown in a recent study by the University of Bonn, which has now been published in the journal Scientific Reports.
“This fact has been known for some time that Cichlids and stingrays can precisely detect small quantities without counting．However, the new research led by Dr. Vera Schluessel from the University of Bonn has shown that both species can even calculate. “We trained the animals to perform simple additions and subtractions,” Schluessel explains．“In doing so, they had to increase or decrease a premier value by one.” Blue means “add one”, and yellow means“subtract one”.
But how do you ask a cichlid for the result of“2+1” or“5-1” The researchers used a method other research groups had already successfully used to test the mathematical abilities of bees: They showed the fish a collection of geometric shapes — for example, four squares．If these objects were colored blue, this meant “add one”．Yellow, on the other hand, meant“subtract one”．After showing the original stimulus (e．g．four squares), the animals were shown two new pictures — one with five and one with three squares．If they swam to the correct picture (i. e. to the five squares in the “blue” arithmetic task), they were rewarded with food．If they gave the wrong answer, they went away empty-handed. Over time, they learned to associate the blue color with an increase of one in the amount shown at the beginning, and the yellow number with a decrease.
But can the fish apply this knowledge to new tasks Have they actually mastered the mathematical rule behind the colors “To check this, we will designedly leave out some calculations during future training,” Schluessel explains.
28．What is known about the two species before the new research
A．They can count small quantities easily.
B．They can associate colors with numbers.
C．They can do simple calculations by training.
D．They can identify small quantities accurately.
29．Why is the bee-method applied
A．To illustrate fish’s ability． B．To ensure the research’s reliability.
C．To compare fish and bees． D．To promote the research’s application.
30．How is the experiment carried out
A．By collecting and calculating． B．By comparing and analysing.
C．By observing and concluding． D．By predicting and checking.
31．What does the last paragraph imply
A．The fish are competent in mathematical calculation.
B．The procedure of the experiment needs improvement.
C．More trials are still needed to confirm the new findings.
D．Calculation methods are comprehended by both species.
D
The “diet” in diet drinks may be a false promise for some so da lovers．True, they deliver the taste of a soda experience, without the calories．Yet, new research shows they can also leave people with increased appetite.
A study published recently in JAMA Network Open adds to the evidence that drinks made with sucralose, an artificial sweetener(甜味剂), may increase the appetite among some people．“We found females and overweight people had greater brain reward activity after consuming the artificial sweetener,”says study author Katie Page, a physician at the University of Southern California．Both groups at e more food after consuming drinks with sucralose, compared with after regular sugar-sweetened drinks. In contrast, the study found males and people of healthy weight did not have an increase in either brain reward activity or hunger response, suggesting they’re not affected in the same way.
One theory is that it’s not the artificial sweetener itself that has a direct effect on the body．The idea is that artificial sweeteners may confuse the body by tricking it into thinking sugar is coming．“You are supposed to get sugar after something tastes sweet,” explains Swithers, “Your body has been used to that.” But the sugar never arrives, which may lead to the body’s less efficiency in processing sugar that’s consumed later.
Swithers’ lab has also documented that when animals with a history of consuming artificial sweeteners get real sugar, their blood sugar levels rise higher than those of animals not fed artificial sweeteners．“It’s a small effect, but over time this could contribute to potentially significant consequences,” she says．If this is happening in some people who consume diet soda, it could add to the risk of Type 2 diabetes(糖尿病), because when blood sugar rises, the body has to release more insulin(胰岛素) to absorb the sugar．“So what you’re doing is that you are kind of pushing the system harder,”Swithers says.
32．What can we learn from Katie Page’s study
A．Females enjoying diet drinks consume more food.
B．Artificial sweeteners help males with better appetite.
C．Diet drinks increase hunger response of healthy people.
D．People consuming sucralose have greater brain reward activity.
33．What does the underlined word “that” inparagraph3referto
A．The effect of sugar． B．Response to sweetness.
C．Artificial sweetener． D．The absence of sweetness.
34．What can we infer from Susan Swithers’ words in the last paragraph
A．More insulin release helps sugar level rise.
B．People drinking diet soda hardly absorb sugar.
C．Type 2 diabetes mainly results from artificial sweeteners.
D．Consuming artificial sweeteners might cause health problems.
35．What does the passage mainly talk about
A．The potential of artificially-sweetened drinks.
B．The wisdom of choosing healthy sweet drinks.
C．The underlying link between diet drinks and health.
D．The differences among artificially-sweetened drinks.

Boost Your Memory
When trying to memorize new material, it’s easy to assume that the more work you put in, the better you will perform． 36 Just turn down the lights, sit back, and enjoy 10-15 minutes of quiet rest, and you’ll find that your memory is far better than if you had attempted to use that moment more productively.
Although it’s known that we should pace our studies, new research suggests that we should aim for“ minimal distraction”during these breaks． 37 You really need to give your brain the chance for a complete recharge with no distraction.
The memory-boosting benefits of undisturbed rest were documented in 1900．In one experiment, the researcher first asked the participants to learn a list of syllables．Following a short period, half the group was immediately given a second list to learn, while the rest were given a six-minute break before continuing． 38 The participants given the break remembered nearly 50 percent, compared to an average of 28 percent for the other group.
In the early 2000s, two other researchers led several follow-up studies. In healthy participants, they have found that short periods of rest can also improve our memory of places．More crucially, this advantage stays a week after the original learning ta sk and it seems to benefit young and old people alike． 39
The exact mechanism is still unknown. It is now accepted that once memories are initially encoded, they pass through a period of consolidation(巩固) that bond them in long-term storage． 40 But now in the age of information, it seems that our brains do need a short break at times to function better.
A．Our memory is easily distracted by new information.
B．This was once thought to happen primarily during sleep.
C．We tend to avoid activities contradictory to memory tasks.
D．Yet doing nothing occasionally may be exactly what you need.
E．So don’t check your emails, or surf the web on your smartphone.
F．When tested one hour later, both groups showed strikingly different patterns of recall.
G．They have also found similar benefits for people in the earlier stages of Alzheimer’s disease.

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。
I was really nervous about English class this year because I was an eleventh grader taking a twelfth grade class．I knew that I wouldn’t know anyone in the class, and that scared me a little. But since I didn’t know anyone, I had the chance to do something I love almost as much as socializing-peoplewatching.
One of the most interesting girls in the class sat directly behind me．She was always laughing and talking, and she just seemed so happy．She was friendly, too — she was one of the very few people in the class who made any attempt to acknowledge me．She was one of those people you just liked, even if you didn’t really know her.
At the end of the year, we were assigned a big project．It was a very open-ended project, where the instructions were basically to read something, then read or watch something else that related to it, and then come up with a class presentation based on what you learned．The presentations were spread out over the last month of school, and because everyone had chosen such different topics and different ways to present those topics, we had some of the most interesting and varied presentations I’ve ever watched.
The girl behind me presented on one of the last days．She got up in front of the class, and told everyone how she had read about eating disorders, because she herself had struggled with one. Since it would have been too difficult for her to talk to us about it directly, she and a friend had made a movie, where they interviewed each other about their eating disorders, how they had felt while they were struggling with them, and how they had overcome them.
注意：
1．续写词数应为 150 左右;
2．请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
By the end of the presentation, almost everyone was in tears.______________________________________

Thank you for your attention to this letter! Looking forward to your support and guidance!
Yours sincerely,
Li Hua
读后续写【参考范文】
By the end of the presentation, almost everyone was in tears．We gave her a big applause．Several classmates put up their hands to comment on how brave she was to stand up in front of thirty people and talk about something so personal, and how strong she was to have overcome the disorder．The most shocking thing about the whole presentation was how surprising it was．We never thought that she would have had a problem like that．She always seemed so happy and confident. We were really inspired by her courage.
When she returned to her seat, I could tell she was really relieved and happy. “Well done! You are my hero!” I gave her a thumbs-up signal and praised her. “Thanks! Things are always changing for the better so long as we believe in ourselves and take some action.” she replied with a broad smile on her face．I couldn’t agree with her more．Her story also reminds me how difficult it is to judge people．You never know just by looking, or even from observing them, what type of person someone is
