Karla Tatiana Vasquez, a trained chef and food writer, was born in El Salvador, moved to Los Angeles as a baby, and grew up eating food from her homeland. She thought it would be easy to find recipes. "I went to the Internet, did some search but only found two books, which I thought immediately, 'Wow, this is funny,'" Vasquez said. It was at the moment that Vasquez determined to do something to safeguard her culture.
Her idea became SalviSoul, a platform（平台） launched in 2015 to preserve her traditional food culture through stories, cooking classes and recipes. And now, that mission has turned into The SalviSoul Cookbook: Salvadoran Recipes.
Vasquez said that the book started coming together through her desire to interview the women in her family and learn their recipes. But when friends heard about her project, they were excited to share recipes and stories from their families. She started seeking stories and recipes from her community and got responses from around the world. The interviews she collected became The SalviSoul Cookbook, with 80 recipes from 25 women.
"The way that I brought in the culture was through the women in my family and they fedme." They also shared lessons on life and love. "So there was the food that built my physical form. And as I was at the table, these stories were feeding the part of my soul that longed to connect, that longed to belong."
She eventually secured a contract（合同） for The SalviSoul Cookbook from Ten Speed Press, an imprint of Penguin Random House. About the publication, Vasquez said,“It's about making sure that what cost a lot to learn isn't forgotten.”

Several new species of tropical（热带的） birds have been found on far islands in Indonesia. Researchers have discerned the Wakatobi sunbird, a new species that lives on the small Waka-tobi Islands, located in central Indonesia. They also studied olive-backed sunbirds and black sun-birds and found that some of the birds they examined actually belonged to some previously un-recognized species.
The new Wakatobi sunbird looks similar to the olive-backed sunbird, but has darker feathers, shorter wings, and a higher-toned song. Zoologists believe that because it has such short wings, it never spread beyond the tiny islands. The olive-backed sunbird, however, can fly long distances, so it was able to live in other locations.
"Specifically, we became interested in the Wakatobi sunbird because of the work of ErnstHartert, a German bird expert active at the beginning of the 20th century," Fionn Marcaigh, one researcher, says. "He described the Wakatobi sunbird as a population with unique dark feath-ers, but he and the rest of the scientific community finally decided that it was only a subspecies of the widespread olive-backed sunbird. We were eager to use modern methods to put this to the test."
For their research, scientists used DNA, recordings of songs, and body measurement analysis to compare the sunbirds they studied. "We used a system called integrative taxonomy （综合分类学）, which combines data on a number of aspects of the birds, including theirsongs, feathers, and body structures, " Marcaigh says. "We recorded their songs using digital recorders, measured live birds, set them free, and used computers to analyze the differences."
"I'm excited that we've added to the list of known species from this wonderful part of the world," Marcaigh says.
28. What does the underlined word "discerned" in paragraph 1 probably mean
A. Imagined. B. Controlled. C. Overlooked. D. Recognized.
29. How does the Wakatobi sunbi rd differ from the olive-backed sunbird
A. It has colorful feathers. B. It flies shorter distances.
C. It lives throughout Indonesia. D. It sings more beautiful songs.
30. Why did Marcaigh study the Wakatobi sunbird
A. To identify its classification. B. To analyze its genetic makeup.
C. To support the study of Ernst Hartert. D. To investigate its habitat and behavior.
31. What about the research is presented at the end of the text
A. Its impact. B. Its prospect. C. Its background. D. Its imperfection.

Rote memorization is when we repeat a piece of information until we remember it. One great example of it is how we memorize the alphabet （字母表） when we are little.“Rote memorization can be a useful learning tool in some situations, but its effectiveness depends on the type of information being learned and how it is applied, ”says Dr. Aldrich Chan, neuropsychologist and professor of Pepperdine University of the US.
Rote memorization can be useful for test preparation, learning basic facts and information such as vocabulary words or math formulas, and when we are in the early stages of learning something new. Rote memorization has a place in our day to day lives, especially when we need to learn something new or in a quick fashion. It enables us to remember information in situations where doing so is the main thing asked of us, even if it doesn't lead us to have a deep understanding of that information.
However, rote memorization isn't always the solution to every problem. Information memorized through rote learning is often preserved in the short term but may be forgotten rela-tively quickly if not actively used. Besides, it often does not promote a deep understanding of the material. Learners may. memorize facts or information without truly comprehending their meaning or how they fit into a broader context. And rote memorization tends to focus on memorizing facts and procedures, which may discourage critical thinking or problem-solving skills.
Both rote memorization and meaningful learning have their place. The most important thing to remember is that rote memorization cannot stand in as a replacement for actual learning. Meaningful learning promotes long-term memory and the ability to apply knowledge flexibly.
32. What is Dr. Aldrich Chan's attitude towards rote memorization
A. Against. B. Doubtful. C. Objective. D. Approving.
33. Which of the following can be best achieved through rote memorization
A. Improving study effectiveness in all situations.
B. Applying knowledge flexibly in our daily lives.
C. Obtaining a thorough comprehension of information.
D. Memorizing information at the beginning stages of learning.
34. What is the purpose of Paragraph 3
A. To compare different types of memorization.
B. To present the limitations of rote memorization.
C. To prove the effectiveness of rote memorization.
D. To discuss the advantages of meaningful learning.
35. What can be a suitable title for the text
A. Rote Memorization: A Useful Learning Tool
B. Rote Memorizing: No Equal to Understanding
C. Rote Memorization: Way of Meaningful Learning
D. Rote Memorization: Alternative to Deep Learning

He was so desperate to leave there and enjoy the splendid world outside but his parents were concerned about his safety. The days were long and cold, and he spent many hours of silence in his tiny cottage thinking about what life would be like in a warm, sunny place.

It was his hope to find true friendship with someone who understood his sadness. For days, Ari poured his soul and innermost thoughts into the letter. Then he rolled the paper, placed it into a bottle, and sealed（密封） it tightly.
At high tide, Ari cast the bottle out into the sea and wished upon the brightest star that a true friend would find the letter. A year later, many cold nights after shaking his message into the sea, Ari received a letter in the mail. He had no idea who would be writing him, but with joy, he opened the envelope.
Dear Ari,
I found your simple but lovely letter. Imagine my surprise when your little bottle from so far away washed up on my shore. I, too, live on an island called Sardinia. My island is warm and filled with mountains, clear white beaches, and green waters. Now that you have found a friend far away, I do hope that you will write and tell me more about your life and people.
Your new friend,
Renata
