Kristin Schell is the founder of The Turquoise(蓝绿色的)Table,a movement of ordinary people who want to create community right in their own front yards.Ten years ago,she and her family moved to a new home in Austin,Texas.
One day,Kristin tried to connect with her new neighbors by hosting a party.She bought a few picnic tables but the delivery driver set one table down in her front yard by mistake.“After the party,I painted the table turquoise—my favorite color—and put it in the front yard,just a few feet from the sidewalk,”she says.
That turquoise able became the place where Kristin and her kids hang out.They played games,did crafts and ate snacks."We got intentional about where we spent our time,”Kristin says.“We became 'front yard people”
Neighbors began to stop by to introduce themselves and sit down for a chat.Kristin invited people to join her at the table for coffee or iced tea.Then neighbors asked Kristin if their family could put a picnic table intheir front yard too.A movement was born.“It was a simple way to slow down and connect with others,”she says.The turquoise table was inviting and had a shared feel.
People often hesitate to invite others into their homes.They think their house is too messy,it's not big enough or they don't have enough time.“Our perfectionism can cause us to miss out on the joy of connecting with others,”Kristin says.Her picnic table takes away the excuses—and the pressure.
She likes how it enables her to take a small step toward easing loneliness and building relationships in her community.“People's greatest need is to know that they are loved and that they belong,”she says.
A decade after their Texas beginnings,thousands of Turquoise Tables exist in all 50 states and in 13countries around the world.Not all of them are actually turquoise.“No matter what color it is,it's a friendship table.”Kristin says.

After years of heated debate,gray wolves were reintroduced to Yellowstone National Park.Fourteen wolves were caught in Canada and transported to the park.By last year,the Yellowstone wolf population had grown to more than 170 wolves.
Gray wolves once were seen here and there in the Yellowstone area and much of the continental United States,but they were gradually displaced by human development.By the 1920s,wolves had practically disappeared from the Yellowstone area.They went farther north into the deep forests of Canada,where there were fewer humans around.
The disappearance of the wolves had many unexpected results.Deer and elk populations —major food sources(来源)for the wolf—grew rapidly.These animals consumed large amounts of vegetation(植被),which reduced plant diversity in the park.In the absence of wolves,coyote populations also grew quickly.The coyotes killed a large percentage of the park's red foxes,and completely drove away the park's beavers.
As early as 1966,biologists asked the government to consider reintroducing wolves to Yellowstone Park.They hoped that wolves would be able to control the elk and coyote problems.Many farmers opposed the plan because they feared that wolves would kill their farm animals or pets.
The government spent nearly 30 years coming up with a plan to reintroduce the wolvers.The U.S.Fishand Wildife Service carefully monitors and manages the wolf packs in Yellowstone.Today,the debate ontinues over how well the gray wolf is fiting in at Yellowstone.Elk,deer,and coyote populations are down while beavers and red foxes have made a comeback.The Yellowstone wolf project has been a valuable experiment to help biologists decide whether to reintroduce wolves to other parts of the country as well.
28.What is the text mainly about
A.Wildlife research in the United States.
B.Plant diversity in the Yellowstone area.
C.The conflict between farmers and gray wolves.
D.The reintroduction of wolves to Yellowstone Park.
29.What does the underlined word "displaced"in paragraph 2 mean

B.Separated.
C.Forced out.
D.Tracked down.
30.What did the disappearance of gray wolves bring about
A. Damage to local ecology.
C.Preservation of vegetation.
B.A decline in the park's income.
D.An increase in the variety of animals.
31.What is the author's attitude towards the Yellowstone wolf project
A.Doubtful.
B.Positive.
C.Disapproving.
D.Uncaring.

A rainforest is an area covered by tall trees with the total high rainfall spreading quite equally through the year and the temperature rarely dipping(下降)below 16℃.Rainforests have a great effect on the world environment because they can fake in heat from the sun and adjust the climate,Without the forest cover,these areas would reflect more heat into the atmosphere,warming the rest of the world.Losing the rainforests may also influence wind and rainfall patterns,potentially causing certain natural disasters all over the world.
In the past hundred years,humans have begun destroying rainforests in search of three major resources(资源):land for crops,wood for paper and other products,land for raising farm animals.This action affects the environment as a whole.For example,a lot of carbon dioxide(二氧化碳)in the air comes from burning the rainforests.People obviously have a need for the resources we gain from cutting trees but we will suffer much more than we will benefit.
There are two main reasons for this.Firstly,when people cut down trees,generally they can only use theland for a year or two.Secondly,cuting large sections of rainforests may provide a good supply of wood rightnow,but in the long run it actually reduces the world's wood supply.
Rainforests are often called the world's drug store.More than 25%of the medicines we use today come from plants in rainforests.However,fewer than 1%of rainforest plants have been examined for their medical value.It is extremely likely that our best chance to cure discases lies somewhere in the world's shrinking rainforcsts.
32.Rainforests can help to adjust the climate because they
A.reflect more heat into the atmosphere
B.bring about high rainfall throughout the world
C.rarely cause the temperature to drop lower than 16℃
D.reduce the effect of heat from the sun on the earth
33.What does the word“this”underlined in the third paragraph refer to
A.We will lose much more than we can gain.
B.Humans have begun destroying rainforests.
C.People have a strong desire for resources.
D.Much carbon dioxide comes from burning rainforests.
34.It can be inferred from the text that
A we can get enough resources without rainforests
B.there is great medicine potential in rainforests
C.we will grow fewer kinds of crops in the gained land
D.the level of annual rainfall affects wind patterns
35.What might be the best title for the text
A How to Save Rainforests
C.Rainforests and the Environment
B.How to Protect Nature
D,Rainforests and Medical Development

If you have ever looked closely at the tires on your car,you have probably seen little hairs sticking out of the black rubber(橡胶). 36 Are they there for any safety reasons Those little bits are one of the strange car features some people may stop to think about.
Located on the vertical part of the tire,these curious little rubber hairs are known as“vent spews(轮胎毛刺)".They are important in the tire-making process.As the tread pattern mold(胎面花纹模具)is pressed into the tire's rubber,the extra rubber requires a way to escape the mold. 37
Curiously,there's no set number of hairs each tire will have 38 But the presence of tire hairs is universal.They are nothing more than remnants(残余部分)of the complex process that makes strong and durable tires.
39 Because they are found on the part of the tire rubber that doesn't hit the road,and they have no impact on how well your tire grips(抓牢)the pavement in rainy weather.These rubber hairs also don't have any impact on road noise or why your tires squeak when you're driving.They are merely evidence of the new tire's arrival in the world.
Tire hairs are naturally worn away during normal driving,and the presence or absence of these hairs doesn't determine if a tire is safe.There is one instance,however,where the lack of tire hairs can matter 40 As a responsible car owner,you should monitor the health of your tires regularly.
A.Why do tires have hairs
B.Tire hairs don't have any effect on safe driving.
C.Are there any other interesting facts about cars
D.They look funny,yet every new car tire has them.
E.It could be a sign that tires are worn,old and need to be replaced
F.The exact number varies based on the design and size of the tires.
G.Because tiny-size escape vents are created throughout each mold,little tire hairs are born.

When we were finally dismissed from the last class of the day,the students streamed out of the classrooms.It was another boring day after school.I dragged my feet home as I sighed.Yet another uneventful day,I thought.Little did I know that the day would take a turn for the worse.
The lift lobby(电梯间)of my flat was old and dirty.The walls,which were painted white,had been dirtied over many years.I reached my flat's lobby,and pressed the lif button and went in.Just then,Mrs Lim,my elderly neighbour,hobbled(蹒跚)in.She looked ancient with tissue paper white hair,wearing a faded old-fashioned dress.I held the lift door open,flashing a friendly smile,and politely greeted her.I asked her how she felt that day and pressed the buttons.She thanked me for being so polite,then we were silent for the rest of the ride.
The lift fell down increasingly fast.There were loud clanking sounds here and there while the lift grew lower and slower.My heart beat hard and fast as my hands turned cold and wet with sweat.Unfortunately the lift came to a sudden stop at the fifth floor.I pressed the buttons hard several times,but it was of no help.The lights on the buttons had gone out.It soon dawned on me that we were trapped.An icy fear crept up my spine.Mrs Lim was hysterical(歇斯底里)
“We will never get out!”she cried with her face pale.It had become a colourless mask.I had no time to lose.I pressed the bell in the lift immediately.The sound was surely deafening(震耳欲聋的),but what other choice did I have Mrs Lim burst into tears.I tried my very best to comfort her,telling her that everything would be all right and that we needed to find out how to get out safely.Mrs Lim began having trouble breathing,and I immediately helped her sit down and loosened her collar.
Paragraph 1:Several minutes passed,but no help came.
Paragraph 2:Bang!My hopes were lifted when I heard the firefighters on the other side of the lift door.
