I shall never forget the night, a few years ago, when Marion J. Douglas was a student in one of my adult-education classes. He told us how tragedy had struck at his home, not once, but twice. The first time he had lost his five-year-old daughter. He and his wife thought they couldn’t bear that first loss; but, as he said, “Ten months later, God gave us another little girl and she died in five days.”
This double bereavement was almost too much to bear. “I couldn’t take it,” this father told us. “I couldn’t sleep, eat, rest or relax. My nerves were entirely shaken and my confidence gone.” At last he went to the doctors: one recommended sleeping pills and another recommended a trip, but neither helped. He said, “My body felt as if it was surrounded in a vice (大钳子), and the jaws of the vice were being drawn tighter and tighter. The tension of grief (悲伤) — if you have ever been paralyzed (使瘫痪) by sorrow, you know what that meant.”
“But thank God, I had one child left — a four-year-old son. He gave me the solution to the problem. One afternoon as I sat around feeling sorry for myself, he asked, ‘Daddy, will you build a boat for me ’ I was in no mood to build a boat; in fact, I was in no mood to do anything. But my son is a persistent fellow! I had to give in. Building that toy boat took me about three hours. By the time it was finished, I realized that those three hours spent building that boat were the first hours of mental relaxation and peace that I had had in months! I realized that it is difficult to worry while you are busy doing something that requires planning and thinking. In my case, building the boat had knocked worry out of the ring. So I determined to keep busy.”
“The following night, I made a list of jobs that ought to be done. Scores of items needed to be repaired. Amazingly, I had made a list of 242 items that needed attention. During the last two years I have completed most of them. I am so busy now that I have no time for worry.”
No time for worry! That is exactly what Winston Churchill said when he was working eighteen hours a day at the height of the war. When he was asked if he worried about his huge responsibilities, he said, “I am too busy. I have no time for worry.”
4. The underlined word “bereavement” in the second paragraph refers to _________.
A．having lost a loved one
B．having lost a valuable article
C．having lost a profit-making business
D．having lost a well-paid job
5. Marion felt his body as if it was caught in a vice because _________.
A．he couldn’t earn enough money to support his family
B．he was suffering from sleeplessness disease
C．he couldn’t get out of mental pressure
D．he felt tired of adult-education classes
6. Marion made a list of over 200 items that needed to be repaired because _________.
A．he hadn’t been able to spare time to mend them
B．he wanted to kill his free time by repairing them
C．the items had actually been broken and needed attention
D．repairing the items helped crowd worry out of his mind
7. At the end of the passage, the author wrote about Winston Churchill in order to ________.
A．prove that he followed Churchill’s example
B．support his student’s solution to his problem
C．show that he was successful in his career
D．make it clear how his conclusion was reached
C
Plastic mobile phones cases and sweet wrappers, some more than 50 years old, have recently been pulled from the sea off the coast of East Yorkshire. The finds lead to growing concern among scientists about the long-term impact of plastic waste on our seas, with research suggesting it takes over 400 years for a drinks bottle to break down in the sea.
Notpla, a London-based startup company, is currently designing a seaweed-based replacement for single-use plastic packaging. Founded in 2014, the company has been sparing no efforts to further develop its product line.
The firm initially looked to seaweed as the solution to the world’s white pollution, because it is plentiful, grows quickly, doesn’t compete with land crops and doesn’t use chemicals, but absorbs carbon from the air. Design director Karlijn Sibbel says, “It can grow into the sea, where it actually has many positive benefits so it can create new ecosystems for other organisms to grow in.”
Sibbel says they look to nature as inspiration “for the ideal packaging” like the skin on a fruit. “A peel (果皮) will eventually be used as nutrients by nature, disappear and become part of the cycle.”
“The exciting thing is that this is a film that can replace most of the flexible packaging you see around,” Sibbel says. The potential contents could include coffee grounds or toilet paper. For food items, such as noodles, they have even experimented with adding flavors to the packaging, so that dissolving the bag could add seasoning to the food. “You can cook with it. And you can really start to rethink what we can do with these materials,” she explained.
The approach feels especially relevant as the world is coming to terms with the effects of decades of uncontrolled plastic production. Co-CEO Paslier says, “We’re excited to see our power in the foodservice industry and looking forward to moving into the fashion markets very soon.”
8. What problem is mainly referred to in Paragraph 1
A．Energy crisis.
B．Food waste.
C．Ecological disaster.
D．White pollution.
9. What is Paragraph 3 mainly about
A．How seaweed grows in the sea.
B．How seaweed absorbs carbon from the air.
C．Why seaweed can create more new ecosystems.
D．Why seaweed was chosen as a plastic alternative.
10. What is the ideal packaging according to Sibbel
A．It can be digested by nature.
B．It’s as thin as a peel.
C．It can transform into chemicals.
D．It bears a flavor enhancer.
11. Which word can best describe the prospects of Notpla
A．Doubtful.
B．Uncertain.
C．Promising.
D．Darkening.
D
Imagine a bowl of pink rice that not only fills your stomach but also gives you the taste of meat. This isn’t a scene from a science fiction movie; it’s the latest creation from South Korean scientists — “meaty rice,” a mixture of cow muscle and fat cells integrated into rice grains.
The research team at Seoul’s Yonsei University, led by Professor Park So-hyeon, used a technique called cell-cultured protein, which involves growing animal cells in the lab without harming any animals. They then infused (注入) these cells into rice grains, using a special process that preserves the grain’s structure and properties.
Meaty rice is a pink-hued grain that is packed with beef muscle and fat cells, offering a meaty taste and texture. According to their study, each gram of this new rice contains 0.4 grams of protein, which is much higher than the 0.08 grams in ordinary rice. It also has more iron, zinc, and vitamin B12, which are essential for our health. It offers a unique flavor, enhanced nutrition, and reduced environmental impact. A study shows that compared to producing beef, making meaty rice could use 99% less land, 96% less water, and give off 92% fewer greenhouse gases. This makes meaty rice not just a new food, but a possible solution for a greener future.
However, the scientists clearly state that meaty rice is still in the early stages of development. Many issues must be addressed before it can be widely accepted. For instance, how will it affect the health and safety of consumers How will it affect the livelihoods (生计) of farmers and the economy of food production
Be that as it may, the researchers are optimistic that meaty rice will be a game-changer for the future of food, and they are planning to conduct more tests to improve its quality. They believe that meaty rice could be the next frontier of food innovation and also help relieve hunger and malnutrition by providing cheaper and more accessible sources of protein and micro-nutrients.
12. How is “meaty rice” produced according to the text
A．By cooking rice with beef flavor.
B．By mixing rice with meat from cows.
C．By infusing plant-based proteins into meat.
D．By injecting animal cells into rice grains in a lab.
13. What can we learn about “meaty rice” from the text
A．It is pollution-free in production.
B．Its flavor is identical to real beef.
C．It has more protein and certain nutrients.
D．It contains five times the calories of regular rice.
14. What is Paragraph 4 mainly about
A．The disadvantages of meaty rice.
B．The future prospect of meaty rice.
C．The negative effects of meaty rice.
D．The potential challenges of meaty rice.
15. What is the researchers’ attitude toward the future of meaty rice
A．Hopeful but unrealistic.
B．Convinced and favorable.
C．Doubtful and cautious.
D．Unconcerned but supportive.

Honesty Won’t Let You Down
Asad was a 13-year-old boy who was very honest and hardworking. Recently, he had entered a new school, so he had no friends yet. One Monday morning, he was nearly late for school. The night before, his family attended his cousin’s wedding and reached home late, which was why he couldn’t get up on time as usual.
At school, Asad could not pay attention to anything and wanted the bell to ring so that he could buy something to eat. After a few hours, when the bell rang, Asad quickly opened his schoolbag to find his money, but just then he remembered that he had left for school in a hurry in the morning and forgotten to take money. He looked under his books, hoping to find some money but there was nothing.
Not knowing what to do, he walked out of the classroom and sat on a bench in front of the canteen. He saw a few of his classmates there, among whom was Fahad. He was one of the richest kids in his class, but he was a very arrogant boy who thought everyone else was a loser. But as Asad was new, he didn’t know much about Fahad.
When he went towards Fahad and asked if he could borrow some money for his lunch, Fahad laughed and said, “I didn’t know you were a loser, maybe a beggar ” Fahad laughed out so loud that other kids also heard it and made fun of the situation. Asad didn’t answer Fahad, and slowly walked back towards an empty bench.
When he reached the bench, he noticed something lying near it. It was a wallet. He picked it up and recognized it was Fahad’s, as he remembered Fahad showing it to his friends and telling them that his uncle had bought it for him from the UK. There was quite a lot of money inside for a kid.

Paragraph 1: At first, Asad wanted to keep it a secret and punish Fahad. After all, Fahad had laughed at him and hurt his feelings badly. However, soon he realized that it was wrong to do so. Honesty was always the most important quality for a person. So he decided to return the wallet to its owner. He looked around and soon saw Fahad walking anxiously here and there, searching for something. Asad went up to him and held out the wallet.
Paragraph 2: Then Fahad said, “Why are you giving it back ” He was totally surprised. Asad told him what had happened just now. Hearing this, Fahad felt really ashamed of his rude behavior. He apologized to Asad sincerely and offered to share his lunch with him. From then on, Fahad changed a lot and they became good friends. Asad knew that honesty would never let him down.
