A
Summer camps everywhere are filling up fast, but opportunities remain open for camps where fun and games come around food- growing it, that is. Your kids will learn how to tend to vegetables and livestock 家畜）and almost certainly taste the fruits of their labor. Here's a small sampling of what's out there.
Muscot, New York
This farm, offers a half-day Wangler Camp for kids (a livestock-centred experience) and a two-week long Young Farmers camp for kids in grades one through eight. Camps range from $150 for weeklong half-day sessions to $350 for full-day sessions
Sproutai' Up, Colorado
An agriculture farm with a focus on education, Sprout' Up offers skill-building programs for teens throughout the year, but their summer camp for kids is all about fun. In addition to farm activities the kids spend time at a local climbing gym. Three weekly half-day sessions are available for half-day sessions are available for $200 each.
Humboldt, California
Located north of San Francisco, this sleepaway camp spreads out over several hundredacres in the coastal hills of Sonoma County. The lodging (住处) is tent-style, with outdoorshowers. A range of farm activities are available throughout the summer.
Alegre, Georgia

Deforestatio——by clear-cutting or wildfires——has massive consequences both on climate and health. But leaving reforestation to Mother Nature can take decades, particularly as disastrous wildfires are increasing in frequency and intensity. And the time, cost and labor involved makes traditional methods of tree planting not as practical as they once were.
Bryce Jones knows how hard it is to replant forests. For four months in 2013, he worked as a tree planter throughout Canada. "There's no technology there, he says. "The only way you can accomplish reforestation is through the air." But it wasn't until 2019 that he hit on the one that he thought had potential: use drones (无人机) to fire specially designed seed pods(荚) into the ground- at 10 times the normal temperature and costing 20percent less than traditional methods. He proposed the idea to his brother and Flash Forcer was born. His first goal was to plant a billion trees by 2025.
The team took out a loan, bought a drone and used 3D printers at Jones's school to make casts of the pods. Now, only two and a half years later, the company has a group of drones with each able to carry several thousand pods per flight. Three operators work in a field, controlling five drones, whose flight take 15 to 20 minutes. Flash Forcer's big draw is its seed pod, which contains everything seedlings(幼苗) need to survive survival. And its technology allows them to reach post-burn sites or remote areas that are difficult for traditional tree planting.
There are challenges every day, Jones says, as they work to improve the engineering, hardware, software and seed-pod recipes. Then there are the challenges presented by the climate——this year, record temperatures, record wildfires and drought. "That was something that was totally out of our control, he says.
Unlike some traditional forms of reforestation, Flash Forcer is focused on biodiversity. For Jones, the target of planting a billion trees by 2025 is just the beginning. "I have a dream that the company will plant on six continents——everywhere where our technology is needed, he says.
24. What does the author intend to tell us in paragraph 1
A. The benefits of reforestation.
B. The power of AI machines.
C. The way of putting out wildfires.
D. The necessity of using new planting methods.
25. What contributes to the particular appeal of Flash Forest
A. Its drone operators. B. The frequent flights.
C. Its seed pool. D. The low cost of seedlings.
26. What does the underlined word "that" in paragraph 4 refer to
A. Extreme weather. B. Drone technology.
C. 3D equipment. D. Computer software.
27. What can we infer about Flash Forest from the last paragraph
A. It changed its focus in the past.
B. It will achieve its final target in 2025.
C. It might be available worldwide one day.
D. It has replaced traditional forms of reforestation.
C
The human voice is a delicate thing. Each person's distinctive voice is produced when air from the lungs causes the vocal cords(声带) to vibrate(震颤). These vocal cords can easily get damaged. According to a 2005 study, 30% of the population will experience a voice disorder at some point in their life.
In a study published in the journal Nature Communications this week, a group of bioengineering researchers from the University of California have put forward an attractive solution. They have designed and tested a soft patch(小片) that can be stuck onto a person's neck, where it will pick up muscle movements and, with the help of machine-learning algorithms(算法) that process the signals, translate them into speech.
When a person loses their voice today, the easiest fix is to turn to typing, texting, or writing notes to communicate. Typing can be slow and convenient, says Jun Chen, the paper's lead author, and writing notes is only possible in good lighting. The new solution would therefore be able to clear all these hurdles.
Dr. Chen's device works based on something called the magnetoelastic effect. Essentially, when tiny magnetic(磁性的) bits are placed into soft materials, their magnetic properties can change as the material is stretched.
When the throat muscles move under the soft patch, the resulting magnetoelastic effects can be changed into electrical signals. In a test with eight participants, the variations can be changed by electrical signals.
Researchers recorded the signals as the subjects spoke and mouthed five different sentences. They then trained a machine-learning model which was then able to predict which of the five sentences the participants spoke-whether aloud or in silence-with more than 90%accuracy.
There is a way to go yet, for now the device can only预测 the five phrases it was trained on. Plus, to make it practical at scale, the researchers will need to collect a lot more data.
28. In paragraph 1,the author mainly wants to tell us that____.
A. lungs are easily damaged
B. the human voice is unique
C. vocal cords vibrate to produce sound
D. voice disorders are a problem worthy of attention
29. Why does the author mention the biometric effect
A. To explain the working principle. B. To present a solution.
C. To introduce the challenge. D. To make a comparison.
30. What is the function of the soft patch
A. Predicting five different sentences.
B. destroying the background magnetic field.
C. Slowing the movements of throat muscles.
D. Helping turn muscle movements into electrical signals.
31. Which of the following is a suitable title for the text
A. Predicting the Importance of Voice Restoration
B. Using Algorithms in Bioengineering Research
C. Overcoming Voice Loss with an innovative Patch
D. Finding the Principle of Communication Devices
D
In recent years, much of my life as a consumer has shifted to what I like to call background. As I've subscribed to more apps and streaming platforms, significant sums of my money tend to slip away each month without my ever thinking about it.
Think of it as an automated trade. Spending without the trouble of spending. Acquaint ion without action. Or thought.
But while this flood of subscriptions was sold to me on the condition that it would make my life more trouble-free, there was a certain shock I felt upon discovering how much I was spending without realizing each month (:$79.45).
You see, the thing about background spending is that it tends to happen, well, in the.
background without your full attention. And there lies the point.
"Hand over your credit card details and let us take care of the rest," these companies promote. But by again sing their name, we've become lazy, positive consumers. And this laziness breeds(导致) more laziness because most of us can't be bothered with conducting regular reviews of our subscription spending. We're too lazy to even notice or cancel it!
I know it's not just me who is suddenly living life as a smart-braised subscriber. The average consumer spends $273 per month on subscriptions, according to a 2021study of 2,500 by digital services firm West Morose. Not a single person surveyed knew what his actually monthly spending was.
It's understandable why this model is so attractive to businesses. As companies questioned traditional advertising models, subscription offered the promise of "selling once and earning forever." And while subscription services have been around for decades (think Wine of the Month Club), more customers have been willing to sign up thanks to the widespread availability of smartphones and the increasing ease of home delivery.
While these subscription promise ease and happiness, not all of us are satisfied. Last year, the Kameny Institute found 40 percent of consumer believe they have too many subscriptions. Almost half of us also think we pay too much for streaming video-on-demand subscriptions.
32. What can we know about background spending in paragraph 2
A. Its purpose. B. Its feature. C. Its procedure. D. Its requirement.
33. What makes it possible for background spending to happen
A. Its attractive price. B. Some people's poor habit.
C. Its secure service. D. Some people's addiction to it.
34. Why is the subscription model appealing to businesses
A. It offers good home delivery services.
B. It is like traditional advertising models.
C. It is popular among smartphone producers.
D. It brings repeated profits through a single sale.
35. What's the author's attitude towards background spending
A. Supportive. B. Doubtful. C. Critical. D. Unclear.

If you are trying to assess a person's character, make sure you do not rely too heavily on factors that can be misleading. Instead, observe the individual's ability to tell the truth and to commit. 36
You can tell a lot about a person's character by observing how he treats other people. 37 It may be difficult to determine how he treats different types of people if you only encounter him in a single environment, such as the workplace. It is often possible, however, to get some idea of his manner of interaction with different types of people through conversation with him.
Whether or not a person is honest says a lot about his character. The attitude a person has about honesty can also indicate what type of person he is. 38 To some degree the types of lies he may tell and his motives for doing so matter.
39 The word "commitment" often causes people to instantly think of close relationships. Whether a person can respect the vows (誓约) and agreements is usually an indication of character.
A person's character is affected by his attitude. 40 Attitude can affect many aspects of a person's life, including how hard he works and his ability to be supportive of others.
When you are trying to assess someone's character, remember that it consists of qualities and habits that form his identity.
A. More importantly, it's necessary to continue his inner struggle.
B. The level of commitment indicates the type of character he has.
C. There are many other things in life that may require commitment.
D. This includes both people he knows and people he does not know.
E. Also, pay attention to his attitude and try to distinguish how it impacts his life.
F. Observe the person's conversations and try to determine how often he tells lies.
G. Some people generally have a negative outlook while others may try to be positive even in difficult situations.

China has nearly 5,000 years of 56 (record) history. However, the history of Chinese furniture is even longer than 57 of its writing, which can be traced back to the Hemudu Culture more than 7,000 years ago.
During the Ming and Qing dynasties, most of the furniture was hand-made using high-quality hardwood 58 raw materials, which are now rare and expensive. Ordinary people often use wood such as pine, elm, and beech, but the quality between the woods 59 (different) greatly.
Classical furniture is mostly made by hand. Modern machines cannot 60 (complete) replace handwork. The shapes carved by the machine are neat but the lines are rigid and lacking vitality.
The most delicate aspect of Chinese classical furniture is the structural part of the furniture- mountains and treetops) bining pieces of wood together, 61 (put) nothing more than the wood itself, is a basic skill of all carpenters(木匠) in ancient China. It was first discovered in the wooden structure of the Hemudu site 62 the ancestors lived more than 7,000 years ago. This structure is the wisdom of the Chinese working people and fully represents the 63 (create) and artistry(艺术性) of humanity.
Ancient Chinese 64 (philosophy) have been expressed in traditional Chinese furniture. For example, Confucianism emphasizes gentleness and moderation. 65 (achieve) that, skilled carpenters properly matched the curves and straight lines of the furniture.

She was the prettiest puppy we had ever seen, and the whole family immediately fell in love with her. We named her Oloya because of her black, shiny black coat. She spent her first vacation with us when she was only ten weeks old and had her first bath and swim in the St. Lawrence River. We had no clue that this amazing little ball of fur would end up being our hero.
As she grew older, Oloya became more and more involved in our family activities. On hot summer days, Oloya enjoyed floating on the river with us in her own rubber tube( 橡皮圈). Amazingly standing on the top of the tube, she smiled while showing off her perfect balance. Resting her front legs and paws over the edge of the rubber tube, she kept her eyes shut as she floated until she'd had enough of the warm sun on her black coat.
One day, our eighteen-year-old daughter, Margie, announced she was going to swim across the bay. No one in the family was free to go swimming with her. The unwritten rules, regardless of swimming ability, was to have a companion in the water with you, especially when swimming the width of the bay. I was not a good swimmer, so I said to Margie, "Take her."

I was not a good swimmer, so I said to Margie, "Take Onyx with you." Having heard her name, Onyx woke up from a nap and was ready for action. Margie signed the dog to follow her. Onyx ran to the water next to her. They entered the freezing river together and swam side by side across the bay.
I watched from the bank as they reached the sandbar (沙洲) on the far shore. They rested a few minutes before diving into the water for the return trip. I felt uneasy for some reason and continued to watch the pair swim side by side.
Suddenly I heard Margie calling out, “I have a cram (痉李) in the leg! ▲
