On the day he almost died, Kimbal Musk had food on the brain. The Internet startup talent and restauranteur had just
arrived in Jackson Hole from a conference where ch ef Jamie Oliver had spoken about the benefits of healthy eating. This was
something Musk thought about a lot—how he might make a difference to the food industry—but beyond expanding his farm-
to-table movement along with his restaurant, Musk hadn't yet broken the code. Then he went sailing down a snowy slope and
fell over, breaking his neck. The left side of his body was paralyzed.
Musk eventually made a full recovery, but it involved spending two months on his back, which gave him plenty of time
to come up with a plan. Since then, he has launched an initiative to put“learning gardens”in public schools across America;
attracted Generation Z to the farming profession by changing shipping containers into high-tech, data-driven, year-round farms;
and this year, is kicking off a new campaign to create one million at-home gardens.
Aimed at reaching low-income families, the Million Gardens Movement was inspired by the pandemic, as both a desire
to feel more connected to nature and food insecurity have been at the forefront of so many people's lives. “We were getting a
lot of inquiries about gardening from people that had never gardened before,”says Musk.“People were looking to garden for a
bunch of reasons:to supplement their budget, to improve the nutritional quality of their diets, or just to cure the boredom that
came with the lockdown.”
The program offer s free garden kits that can be grown indoors or outdoors, and will be distributed through schools that
Musk's non-profit, Big Green, has already partnered with. It also offers free courses on how to get the garden growing and fresh
seeds and materials for the changing growing seasons.“I grew up in the projects when I was young, in what we now call food
deserts,”says EVE,one of the many celebrities who have teamed up with the organization to encourage people to pick up a free
garden.“What I love about this is that it's not difficult. We are all able to grow something.”
24. What does the underlined expression“broken the code”in paragraph 1 probably mean?
A. broken the rule. B. found a way out.
C. spared no effort. D. made up his mind.
25. What can we learn about the Million Gardens Movement?
A. It has just accomplished its target.
B. It has mainly attracted young generations.
C. It increases economic burdens for the poor.
D. It is partly due to the lack of food security.
26. Which of the following best describes Musk?
A. Serious. B. Flexible. C. Charitable. D. Straightforward.
27. Why is EVE taken as an example?
A. To share his experience in a food desert.
B. To encourage people to start a free garden.
C. To clarify the reason why he loves a garden.
D. To demonstrate the program to be non-profit.

Do you have frightening dreams while sleeping? According to an email interview by clinical psychologist and sleep expert
Dr. Michael Breus, roughly 5 percent of the general population has at least one bad dream per week. Nightmares typically happen
during REM sleep, during the middle and later parts of the night.
There is no exact explanation for nightmares, but Breus says it's possible that they help the brain practise, prepare for and
even anticipate difficult or dangerous experiences in waking life. Of course,it's possible that nightmares, like dreams in general,
don't have a primary function—that they're a by-product of other activities in the body. But most sleep scientists think that dreams
and nightmares exist for some purposes.
One study found the most common nightmare was falling, followed by dreams of being chased,feeling lost, and feeling
trapped. Then why do nightmares happen?
“Certain circumstances and characteristics make some people more likely to have nightmares than others,”says sleep
medicine specialist Dr. Barry Krakow. He thinks people who've been traumatized(使受精神创伤) are certainly at a higher risk
of nightmares. Examples are offered of those who have suffered criminal attacks, or who have been in life-threatening accidents.
People with some degree of sensitivity in their biological make-up are also more likely to have bad dreams, so they're more
common in people who suffer from anxiety or depression, or who use ex cess drugs or alcohol.
The traditional belief often has it that nightmares are the result of eating too much rich food before bedtime, but it is still
uncertain whether this is true. One study from 2015 did find a link between eating dairy or hot foods before bedtime and having
disturbing dreams, but the study authors noted that this couldn't be proven definitely because the data was self-reported and there
were a lot of other factors to consider.
However, research in recent decades has shown that people who suffer from sleep disorders are also more likely to have
nightmares.
28. What may Dr. Breus agree with about nightmares?
A. They come true once in a while.
B. They happen at anytime during sleep.
C. They possibly help predict future events.
D. They arise for some really specific purposes.
29. Who does Dr. Krakow think tends to suffer nightmares?
A. Paul who often stays up late. B. Jack who has had horrible experiences.
C. Peter who is sensitive to alcohol. D. John who sleeps in a noisy environment.
30. What can we learn from paragraph 5?
A. Eating rich food before bedtime will cause nightmares.
B. The data used in the 2015 study was reliable and accurate.
C. The traditional belief about nightmares has been disproved.
D. The link between dairy or hot food and nightmares is still uncertain.
31. From which section of a website is the text probably taken?
A. Mental health. B. Popular culture. C. Eating habits. D. Life experiences.

Geothermal(地热的) power generation is one of our most stable renewable energy resources.Heat generated below the
Earth's surface can provide an almost unlimited supply to power and heat homes. And while geothermal electricity only accounts
for around one percent of global generation,that is set to at least triple by 2050.
The Geysers in California is the world's largest geothermal electricity complex. It produces enough electricity from its 18
power plants for 725,000 homes, totaling 20 percent of the state's renewable energy. Superheated“dry steam”is channeled from
a large sandstone reservoir heated by a large magma chamber(岩浆房) more than four miles beneath the surface.
Heat is captured from its passage through the rock and the heated water converts into electricity.Cooled water is then
recycled and pumped back to gather more heat. EGS (enhanced geothermal systems) technologies will open up many more sites
for geothermal energy.“You can effectively put a power plant anywhere,”said Will Pettit, director of the Geothermal Resources
Council.“All you have to do is drill deep enough and you will find hot rock.”
Most geothermal plants actually use a flash steam technique, where hot water(at 360F or 180C)is drawn up, passed into
lower pressure tanks and flashed into steam to power a turbine(涡 轮 机 ).Binary cycle(双 元 循 环 ) plants are the growth
technology because they can operate at lower water temperatures and more diverse geographical locations. They use moderately
hot water to heat a secondary fluid with a lower boiling point—as low as 135F—to drive turbines.
Geothermal plants already emit 11 times less carbon dioxide per unit of electricity than the average US coal power plant.
They can also operate 24 hours a day to provide a solid base load for homes and businesses.
There are drawbacks too. Seismic activity around drilling wells is a factor. High investment costs are another. But the US
government is backing the sector with multi-million do llar funds to push forward advanced EGS research. Geothermal energy
is set to play a big part in the low-carbon electricity future.
32. What is the significance of EGS(enhanced geothermal systems) technologies?
A. They have made geothermal energy less sustainable.
B. They allow for more efficient use of geothermal resources.
C. They have greatly reduced the need for drilling in geothermal sites.
D. They have opened up new methods of generating electricity from water.
33. What can be inferred from paragraph 4?
A. Power plants are not affected by water.
B. Hot water is used to power a turbine directly.
C. Binary cycle plants are less restricted to locations.
D. A flash steam technique is a must in geothermal plants.
34. What is the writer's attitude towards geothermal power?
A. Indifferent. B. Ambiguous. C. Pessimistic. D. Optimistic.
35. What is the main idea of the article?
A. Geothermal power is likely to be a great chance to sustainable power.
B. Traditional power has been replaced by geothermal power in America.
C. Businesses have been competing to gain an advantage in geothermal power.
D. EGS technologies have come into widespread application around the world.

How to Feel at Peace
Is feeling truly peaceful a pipe dream? Nope!With a little work, you can feel calm, cool, and collected (just like you deserve
to). 36 These work based on personal preference, so just find one that works for you!
Release what you cannot control.
This is the most important part of feeling at peace and the first place you should always start.90%of the time, when we're
worried about something or stressed out, the source of our anxiety is really something that we have no control over. 37 If
you can't affect the outcome then there is no point in worrying about something.
Get an inspiration from nature.
Go sit out in an area nearby. Listen to the trees. Watch the animals. Do they seem worried about what their brother did last
Christmas? Do the trees seem to notice when it starts to rain? 38
Create goals.
Having a goal that you can work for can really help when you're feeling lost and aimless in life. 39 Find something
that you want for yourself and then figure out what you have to do to pursue it. You’ll find an inner peace when you’re working
with all your soul devoted to a single goal.
40
When other people make us angry, it is usually because we cannot understand why they're doing something that's making
us angry. Instead of blowing up at someone or stressing yourself out, try to see things from their side of the table. Think about
why they did what they did... and remember that we're all people with our own problems and our own dreams.
A. Forgive yourself.
B. Find the humanity in all people.
C. All you can do in life is to try your best and let fate take its course.
D. Happiness is on the horizon, and we're here to show you what to do.
E. No. Nature adapts and embraces every twist and turn in life and you should too.
F. Really, what's the point in life if you don't have something to work towards, right?
G. A huge source of worry in our lives comes from when we beat ourselves up from inside.

。
The waves crashed heavily against the rocks, the stormy sea swallowing the once-powerful
ship.The only survivor of the shipwreck was brought by the currents to the shore of a small,
uninhabited island. His desperate cries for help mixed with the roar of the storm, only to be
swallowed by the ocean.
Exhausted and disoriented, he lay on the sandy beach, thanking whatever forces had saved his
life.After he surveyed the surroundings, he realized the harsh reality of his isolation. He prayed to
God and scanned the horizon for any sign of rescue, but no help appeared. In the midst of despair,
he gradually awakened to the fact that he had to survive on this uninhabited island on his own.
Driven by great determination, the survivor managed to build a shelter with the driftwood to protect
him from the elements, and to store his few possessions.
Days turned into weeks, and weeks into months. The survivor, once stuck in his isolation,
started exploring the island's hidden treasures. His routine became a dull cycle of hunting for food,
collecting rainwater, and scanning the horizon for any sign of rescue. But the vast expanse of the
ocean offered no comfort, no ship on the horizon to save him. 中 国
Despite his loneliness, the survivor clung to hope. The sunrises brought a glimmer of
optimism,and he kept scanning the horizon, searching for any trace of rescue.
Then, one fateful day, as he returned from a fruitless search for food, he was greeted by a
devastating sight—his shelter was on fire, and the smoke was rolling up to the sky! The worst had

disbelief seized him as he watched the smoke rise to the sky, a cruel demonstration of his misfortune.

“God, how could you do this to me!” he cried.
