There are three kinds of people in this world. Those who love Butter Chicken, those who think Butter Chicken is overrated and those who have never tasted Butter Chicken. Of all of these, I feel deep sorrow for the third kind. It is a loss of gigantic proportions, in my opinion.
Delhi, arguably the culinary (烹饪的) capital of India, owes a large part of its flavour heritage to the Mughals (印度贵族). Butter Chicken, however, has far more humble origins, and was born far closer to home. It only dates back a couple of decades to pre-partition India, and its story takes us to a sweet-shop, owned by an elderly gentleman called Mokha. It was here that young Gujral worked, where he helped invent the Tandoori Chicken that we all love today. Yes, you heard that right, this story also includes the invention of the famous Tandoori Chicken.
There came a time when Mokha’s health dropped and he eventually sold the shop to Gujral who renamed it as Moti Mahal. As a sharp businessman, Gujral realized that the Tandoori Chicken hanging above the tandoor (印度烤炉) all day would tend to dry out if unsold. He then came up with the genius idea of creating a basic sauces with tomatoes, butter, cream and some spices to immerse the Tandoori Chicken pieces in, helping them regain moisture and become tasty again. And thus, was born the Butter chicken.
When India was partitioned, Gujral moved to Delhi and so did Moti Mahal, with Butter Chicken and Tandoori Chicken in tow. The small outlet grew fast and now, almost 70 years later, it has a successful chain of restaurants with outlets far and wide, managed by his grandson, Monish. A few years back, when I was reviewing Masala Library in Mumbai, I was surprised to find Butter Chicken on the tasting menu. What started then, is now a full-fledged movement to take the humble dish and reinvent or present it in innovation. Today, you will find Butter Chicken tacos, pizzas, rolls, burgers, biryani and just about everything you can think of. I bet when Gujral invented Butter Chicken, little did he know that he was creating history, in a way.
24. What does the underlined word in paragraph 1 mean
A. subtle B. economic C. dietary D. enormous
25. What do we know about Gujral according to the text
A. He invented the Tandoori Chicken as well as Butter Chicken single-handedly.
B. His grandson, Monish, managed to move Moti Mahal and Butter Chicken to Delhi.
C. His inspiration of Butter chicken came from the unsold Tandoori Chicken
D. He took over the shop from Mokha when India was partitioned.
26. The author’s experience in the Masala Library is mentioned to ________.
A. explain his passion for Butter Chicken
B. show the popularity of Butter Chicken
C. indicate his satisfaction with the library
D. recommend a place to eat Butter chicken
27. Which of the following is a suitable title for the text

C. The innovation of a humble Indian dish—Butter Chicken
D. The visit to the culinary capital—Delhi

In Belgium, a company called HydroVolta is improving ways to take salt water and turn it into fresh water under the Horizon- funded SonixED project.
The vast majority of the earth’s water is salt water. Only 3% is fresh water and less than one third of that is accessible, the rest being locked away in glaciers and groundwater. “We will need to treat salt water so people can drink it and industry can use it,” said George Brik, chief executive officer of Hydro Volta. “But with current technologies, desalination (脱盐) requires high operational costs. On top of that, existing technologies use high amounts of energy and chemicals.”
The basic technique now to turn salt water into fresh water is electrodialysis (电渗析), where a kind of membrane (隔膜) is used to separate salt from water. But the method has a weak point: the membrane gets dirty easily and requires chemicals and high pressure to clean. That in turn involves large amounts of energy. Under SonixED, HydroVolta has developed ultrasound technology that keeps the membrane clean in a much more efficient way.
Energy use in this field depends on pressure, which is measured in a metric unit known as bar. Existing technologies to desalinate seawater take around 50 to 80 bar, while the new desalination technology uses just one to three bar. What’s even better is that a greater amount of fresh water can now be generated. “Existing technologies waste around 60% to 65% of the seawater that’s taken in,” said Brik. “Our new technology improves the situation. If we take in 100 litres of seawater, we can produce 65 litres of drinkable water.”
HydroVolta thinks this technology will be beneficial to larger companies that generate drinkable water as well as to industrial businesses that need water to fuel their operations. Meanwhile, Brik says the new desalination technology may need a push from governments to encourage a bigger demand. “They can be the first customers,” he added.
28. What do George Brik’s words in Paragraph 2 imply
A. Treating salt water is of great importance.
B. The world is facing a serious water shortage.
C. Better desalination technologies are needed.
D. Current desalination technologies are no longer useful.
29. What is the problem with electrodialysis
A. It consumes too much energy.
B. The membrane is rare to find.
C. The water it produces is a little salty.
D. It requires complex ultrasound technology.
30. What do we know about the new desalination technology
A. It takes more energy than existing technologies.
B. It produces clean water more efficiently.
C. It gives up the use of membrane to function.
D. It needs more seawater to produce fresh water.
31. Which statement will Brik probably agree with
A. HydroVolta can solve the water crisis worldwide.
B. The new desalination technology needs official support.
C. HydroVolta has great difficulty in finding its first customers.
D. The new desalination technology is unsuited to small companies.
D
The power of human language comes not only from the precision of its signals and the complexity of its grammar but also from its links to cognition (认知). Babies as young as 3 months have begun to link language and core cognitive capacities.
Previous work in the lab had found that for babies aged 3 to 4 months, listening to both human vocalizations (发声) (their native language) and non-human primate vocalizations (calls of monkeys) boosted cognition. It remained unknown whether all human languages would have this advantageous effect.
In a new study, the researchers considered English-acquiring 3-to 4-month-old babies’ responses to two non-native languages (German or Cantonese)—in the context of the classic object categorization task. In this cognitive task, babies first viewed a series of “familiarization” images from one object category (e.g., dinosaurs). Then they viewed two new “test” images at the same time: a new example from the familiarized category (e.g., another dinosaur; “a familiar object”) and a new model from a novel category (e.g., a fish; “a novel object”). Babies’ ability to distinguish between the familiar and novel test images, measured by their looking times, indicates whether they have formed the object category.
Crucially, babies’ success in the task depends upon the sound information that accompanies the visual images presented during familiarization. “We found that German, which is phonologically (音系地) ‘near’ to English, facilitated object categorization. But Cantonese, which is phonologically ‘distant’, did not,” said Danielle Perszyk, lead author of the study.
“Babies’ responses to the two non-native languages tested, considered in combination with their responses to English and to the sounds of monkeys，are consistent with the possibility that babies’ earliest links to cognition originate from two distinct mechanisms. Only one of them is used specifically for human speech,” she added.
When babies are 3 to 4 months old, vocalizations of non-human primates may boost their cognition by engaging another system, one not specialized for speech. However, the cognitive advantage is short-lived: only lasts for 2 to 3months. The study also provides the first evidence that babies’ increasingly precise cognitive tuning to the sounds of their native language sets restrictions on the range of human languages they will link to cognition.
32. What can we know about babies aged 3 to 4 months according to previous work
A. They get a cognitive bonus after exposure to animal sounds.
B. They can tell human languages from those of animals.
C. They have a gift for mastering diverse languages.
D. They show no interest in non-native languages.
33. What does Paragraph 3 mainly talk about
A. An evaluation of babies’ learning ability.
B. A story regarding babies’ ability to distinguish images.
C. An experiment on babies’ ways of native language learning.
D. An object categorization experiment on babies’ cognitive link.
34. Which of the following may Danielle Perszyk agree with
A. People may prefer certain languages at a young age.
B. Babies may adopt different systems to build cognitive links.
C. Babies’ cognitive links are dependent on their learning habits.
D. People can develop early cognitive links through familiar languages.
35. What may babies’ precise cognitive tuning to sounds of their native language bring about
A. Improving their speech processing system.
B. Enhancing their desire to pick up new languages.
C. Limiting their cognitive associations with other languages.
D. Affecting their ability to distinguish between different languages.

Skeet shooting is a type of target sport in which the shooter uses a special gun to hit moving clay target, which are sometimes referred to as “clay pigeons (陶土飞靶)”. This target sport is an important, competitive sport in the Olympic games. 36
Skeet shooting was invented by the bird hunter in the early nineteenth century under the original name of “clock shooting”. The game was changed slightly and reached a wider audience over the coming years. Once, a competition was held to determine a new name for this shooting game. 37 The term “skeet” is a Scandinavian word meaning “to shoot”.
Today, skeet shooting is as American as apple pie and McDonald’s. At first, fans of the sport were male, but now, a fair number of women also love skeet shooting. 38 For friends or families, skeet shooting at a sporting club can be a fun activity.
39 Generally, people will need to purchase related equipment, including something guaranteeing personal safety such as safety glasses. And they’d better have a large, private yard. If the players have never done shooting of any kind before, they should also take a safety course, which will teach them about the proper use and storage of the equipment.
Like most skills, skeet shooting takes a lot of patience and practice. 40 But those folks are few and far between, especially if they’ve never picked up a shotgun before. If you aren’t a patient person, that’s okay because skeet shooting can help you develop patience.
A. Why do people love skeet shooting
B. At last, the game was called skeet shooting.
C. How can one participate in the sport at home
D. Unfortunately, no recommended name was chosen.
E. Sure, some people might have a natural talent for it.
F. There are many clubs offering skeet shooting in America.
G. Therefore, many countries attach much importance to it.

David Cote, then CEO of Honeywell, shared the pros and cons of hiring a CEO with experience in the role.

So in many cases, experience is 43 .
Are inexperienced CEOs more likely to have hunger than others If they have no real reputation, they’ll be more likely to be driven to 44 . For example, when Cote was CEO of Honeywell, some leaders said to him they didn’t know if the company could be 45 —and that even if it could be, they weren’t sure whether he was the 46 to do it because he was not their first choice. Those comments just 47 his hunger. He decided to impress them.
Does the finding that previous CEO experience can hurt a person’s performance 48 you An experienced CEO might say, “I am 49 in this work, so I know how to settle it.” Rushing to conclusions tends to 50 an experienced CEO to all facts and opinions. People will 51 act according to their own experience, which is an instinct (天性). So sometimes experience can be a(n) 52 .
Rather than a fundamentally necessary factor for a CEO, 53 is simply the icing (糖霜) on the cake. The hunger 54 it. Nobody knows the future. It’s more important to hire somebody eager to 55 things, regardless of their experience.

My daughter Kathy’s birthday was approaching. Last Sunday, in the early morning, she asked me whether I’d buy her a birthday gift.
I said, “Of course. And to buy the gift, I decide to sell your never-to-be-used-again baby things that still look new and useful. Will you allow it ” She immediately agreed and began sorting out her baby stuff. My husband Sam gladly joined us. Soon, we gathered the stuff well enough. I decided to take them to the second-hand market in the following week and then use the money collected to buy Kathy the bike she dreamed about.
Thinking about that, I waved Kathy and Sam goodbye and left for the local hospital to visit an ill friend there. After twenty-five minutes of drive, I arrived. And after seeing my friend, I went to turn in my visitor’s pass at the hospital desk. There, I overheard an argument between a receptionist (接待员) and a worried and disappointed man whose clothes were a little worn out. The receptionist was explaining that his newborn girl couldn’t leave the hospital without an infant car seat.
Confused, the man asked, “What’s on earth an infant car seat How much can one cost ” Based on his accent and appearance, I guessed he probably was new here. While I observed the man, the receptionist told him, “Sir, it’s a soft seat made specifically to protect infants and younger babies in a vehicle. It can be easily put in the vehicle. The price often ranges from 70 dollars to 550 dollars.”
So upset, the man said, “Where can I get such a seat at this time and where can I get the money to buy one ” “I’m sorry, sir, but this is what the state law requires. Nobody can take a baby out of the hospital without that seat,” the receptionist said. “Your wife can go home with you today, but the baby can’t leave unless she’s in a car seat.”
My daughter just had an infant car seat, which I had planned to sell. Finding the man looked so helpless, I wondered whether to give him Kathy’s seat for free.
