At first sight, Easthope doesn’t seem much like a Cassandra. She smiles a lot. Her manner is kind and motherly; pushed to name her profession, you might guess at nurse or teacher. But look closer.
Easthope is an emergency planner whose job is to support the survivors of major disasters, in which capacity she acted following the 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami and the fire at Grenfell Tower. For two decades, the public knew nothing about this vital work, which went on behind the scenes, though she was hugely admired in what we might call professional disaster circles: a voice of calm and a fountain of wisdom. But in 2023, she published a best-selling book about her career, When the Dust Settles, and that changed. People became very interested in what she did.
“At literary festivals, most authors get questions about their writing process,” Easthope says. “But I wouldn’t get those. What people wanted from me was to know how I lived with the knowledge that I have. Wasn’t I afraid How did I handle I would tell them that I didn’t live afraid, and I would give them basic advice. But this wasn’t enough.” In the end, she felt she had no choice but to write a second book, one in which she would try to distill (浓缩) all that she has learned for the benefit of each individual.
While her publisher describes Come What May as a roadmap for resilience (韧性), the word is one Easthope dislikes. Ready, she suggests, is a better one. Easthope also reminds people that small things, like losing hair during illness or consuming too much food after someone dies, still matter. She encourages people to remember, not to forget, what happened during disasters, because such events leave a long-lasting effect.
4. What might a Cassandra be like according to paragraph 1
A. Severe and forbidding. B. Competent and cautious.
C. Friendly and energetic. D. Cheerful and approachable.
5. What led to increased public awareness of Easthope’s work in 2023
A. The publication of a best seller.
B. The growth of professional disaster circles.
C. Her involvement in2004 tsunami relief.
D. Her sudden rise to fame through media.
6. Why are readers’ questions cited in paragraph 3
A. To reveal Easthope’s personal fears.
B. To explain Easthope’s writing process.
C. To show Easthope’s writing motivation.
D. To present public doubts about Easthope’s work.
7. What does Easthope agree on handling disasters
A. Resilience matters most. B. Forgetting aids recovery.
C. Positive thinking takes the lead. D. Minor sufferings deserve attention.
C
Facing intense competition for foods, sea otters (海獭) survive with the help of tools — like rocks and even glass bottles — that let them break open tougher prey (猎物) that they wouldn’t otherwise be able to eat.
That’s according to a new study of sea otters in Monterey Bay, California, which took a look at the tool use of individual otters. The findings reveal how this may increase their chances of survival in an uncertain world. Sea otters spend their days looking around for food in kelp (海草) forests. They dive to the bottom to grab tasty food, plus sometimes rocks that they plan to use as tools. They bring these to the surface and float on their backs as they get to work on opening and eating their snacks. “Their preferred food is urchins (海胆),” says biologist Chris Law, who notes that urchins are relatively easy for otters to break apart. But there are areas over-abundance of urchins, where urchins have eaten all the kelp. Since the kelp is gone, however, these urchins no longer have a good food supply and provide little nutritional value for otters. That’s a matter of life-and-death to otters, so they aren’t interested in consuming them.
“So that means otters have to eat alternative foods,” says Law. “Many of them are those super hard prey items that really require some kind of external force to break into.” Law and some co-workers analyzed data on 196 otters in California. It turns out that frequent tool users were able to eat harder and larger prey. This was particularly important for female otters, since they’re smaller than males and aren’t able to bite down with as much force.
“They typically wouldn’t be able to break into harder prey,” says Law. “But they use tools more than males, so they’re able to gain access to these novel sources of food items.” Besides, using tools protected the otters’ teeth. The researchers found that tool users had less dental damage from biting hard food items.
8. What can we infer about kelp and urchins
A. Urchins survive kelp. B. Urchins destroy kelp forests.
C. Kelp and urchins coexist. D. Kelp restricts urchins’ growth.
9. Why are urchins abandoned by sea otters
A. Urchins offer little nutrition. B. Otters find novel food items.
C. Urchins are hard to break apart. D. Otters are tired of eating urchins.
10. What can we know about male otters
A. They prefer to consume soft food. B. They make less use of tools for food.
C. Their food chain has been broken. D. Their teeth are easier to get damaged.
11. Which of the following would be the best title for the text
A. Sea Otters’ Favorite Food: Urchins in Kelp Forests.
B. The Relationship Between Sea Otters’ Diet and Kelp Forests.
C. Differences in Tool Use Between Male and Female Sea Otters.
D. Tool Use: A Key to Sea Otters’ Survival in Competition for Food.
D
There’s a whiteboard on the refrigerator in the du Plessises’ kitchen the couple uses to plan dinners. But with two young children, full-time jobs and the nearest supermarket 20 minutes away, figuring out what to eat can sometimes be challenging. To lighten the load, Mr. du Plessis regularly uses a grocery delivery service and meal kits (半成品净菜) are their favorites.
America’s appetite for online grocery sales rocketed more than 50%, from $62 billion in 2019 to $96 billion in 2020, according to the Food and Drug Administration. One in five consumers now has groceries delivered to their door at least once a month. Meanwhile, there’s been a steep increase in demand for restaurant takeout. Meal kits which come with premeasured ingredients are also experiencing strong growth. As food production and transportation make up as much as 1/3 of a typical US household’s annual contribution to climate change-inducing emissions, such a trend in food industry arouse some concerns.
“It’s crossed my mind,” Mr. du Plessis says about the environmental impact. “Unfortunately, it’s one of those things like Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs. It’s like we have to meet our basic needs before we can be concerned about the bigger picture.”
In 2022, researchers from the University of Michigan modeled a single 36-item grocery cart to compare greenhouse emissions from an e-commerce grocery delivery and a traditional trip to the store to get the same items. They found that using an electric vehicle to pick up groceries could cut emissions by as much as half, compared to a gas-powered vehicle. They also found that home delivery could be an even better option. That’s because with a delivery vehicle, orders are often clustered, with a driver dropping off not just your groceries, but also hitting neighbors during the same run.
While some might worry about more waste and carbon foot print that meal kits cause a 2019 study conducted by Shelie Miller from the University of Michigan found that, comparatively, meal kits could be one of the best options for lower greenhouse gas emissions. The meal kits “did have more packaging overall and more impact associated with that packaging,” Miller says. “But what we really saw was that the meal kits had more efficient use of food.” On average, the greenhouse gas emissions for a meal made with ingredients purchased at a grocery store are 33% higher than a comparable prepackaged kit, the study found.
12. Why does the author mention Mr. du Plessis’ kitchen
A. To reach a conclusion. B. To stress a social problem.
C. To call on healthy diets. D. To introduce the topic.
13. What concern comes along with the rise of food delivery
A Poor goods quality. B. Environmental impact.
C. Commercial disorder. D. Jammed transportation.
14. What does the underlined word “clustered” in paragraph 4 probably mean
A. Grouped together. B. Separated individually.
C. Delivered randomly. D. Packed tightly.
15. What does Miller’s research indicate
A. Meal kits are delicately packaged. B. Meal kits help with cooking skills.
C. Meal kits are efficient in cooking. D. Meal kits comparatively waste less.

阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Bossy, dominant, controlling — have these labels ever come to mind when you think of others or yourself Or have others used these terms to describe you However, control isn’t purely negative.____16____ Its role in our lives is far more complicated. Let’s unpack it.
____17____ Air traffic controllers ensure planes’ safe navigation. Teachers who manage classes effectively create a thriving environment. Self-control, too, is a cornerstone (基石) of personal growth, helping us pursue long term goals. These all show how control can be a force for order and progress.
But when control changes into a strong desire to be in charge all the time and make others do exactly what you want, many problems will start to appear. Some individuals use threats, or even force to impose (强制实行) their will. ____18____ If you recognize such behavior in others or experience it yourself, seeking support from trusted adults is crucial-they can help address the harm.
Psychologists link the desire for control to underlying anxiety. When we feel uncertain or that we don’t know what to do in life, the need to manage every little thing becomes a way to deal with our feelings. And gradually, it becomes a negative cycle which gains strength.____19____
Life’s changes often spark control urges. Physical or emotional changes, family conflicts, or the loss of a loved one trigger (引发) feelings of powerlessness. Transitions like starting a new school or moving to a different city can also disrupt (扰乱) our sense of stability. ____20____ It’s a natural response to life’s unpredictability.
A. This can be a form of abuse.
B. Control has clear positive applications.
C. Uncertainty weakens our self-confidence.
D. The sense of loss can also explain the reason.
E. In such moments, the need to regain control becomes intense.

As he sat there in his lawn chair, he dreamed about the magic of flying.
Then one day, Larry Walters got an idea. He bought a ____24____ of helium (氦气) and forty-five weather balloons. Larry used straps to attach the balloons to his lawn chair and ____25____ the chair to the bumper (保险杠) of his jeep and inflated (充气) the balloons. Larry Walters sat in his chair and ____26____ the rope. His plan was to lazily float up, and then lazily back down to ground.

THOUSAND feet! At that height, he could hardly ____29____ deflating any of the balloons.. So, he stayed up there, sailing around for fourteen hours.

On hitting the ground, he was ____33____. As he was being led away in handcuffs (手铐), a television ____34____ called out to ask, “Mr. Walters, why did you do it ” Larry stopped, ____35____ the man for a moment and replied casually, “A man can’t just sit around.”
