Cordero is the farm manager at Olli n Farms, not far from Boulder, Colorado. The locally grown vegetables on
the farm aren’t just pretty. “We play an important role in public health nutrition programs,” says Cordero’s dad,
Mark Guttridge, who started this farm with his wife, Kena, 17 years ago.
At a meeting with about a dozen local farmers, two state representatives, and the Colorado officials of
agriculture, Guttridge explains how Boulder county has made creative investments in his farm that could be spread
to the state or even national level. Before the meeting, Guttridge shows them one of those investments.
A dozen sheep, which Guttridge raises for wool, feed on root vegetables like radishes that have been leftover
for them. “So these guys are out fertilizing (施肥) the vegetable field,” Guttridge laughs. “They’ll be out here a
couple more weeks, and then we’ll get our next summer vegetables planted right there.” Around the field is a
special moveable type of fencing that Ollin Farms bought using grants (补助金) from the Boulder County
Sustainability Office. It allows them to move the sheep from one field to another, fertilizing as they go. The goal of
these investments is “really building up our soil health,” he explains. “That relates directly to the nutrient quality of
the food-healthy soil grows healthy food.”
The county also makes an effort to get that healthy food out to different communities to boost public health.
That’s where the Boulder County Public Health department comes in. It created a coupon (赠券) program to give
discounts to people buying fruits and vegetables from Olli n Farms. Nutrition incentive programs, like those public
health fruit and vegetable coupons, are spreading all over the country, and most are funded through the federal farm
bill. Amy Yaroch, executive director at the Gretchen Swanson Center for Nutrition, says “It’s a trip le win. It’s
basically good for the consumers who live in that particular community because they’re getting the healthy food,
it’s good for the farmer, and then it’s good for the economy.”
24. What does Ollin Farms do?
A. It makes public nutrition health plans.
B. It offers financial grants to other farms.
C. It provides cheap food to the local community.
D. It grows fruits and vegetables rich in nutrition.
25. How does Boulder county support sustainable farming practices at Ollin Farms?
A. By raising sheep on radishes. B. By buying fences for farmhouses.
C. By investing in the farm’s soil health. D. By giving advice about fertilizing fields.
26. What is Amy’s attitude towards “nutrition incentive programs”?
A. Cautious. B. Dismissive. C. Unclear. D. Approving.
27. Which is the most suitable title for the text?
A. Couponing for Health: Stimulating Nutrition Choices
B. Growing Health: Innovations in Farm and Public Health Initiatives
C. Fertile Fields and Furry Friends: A Farming Fairy Tale
D. Local Produce, Global Impact: The Nutrition Choices of Ollin Farms

The sun is about to set when we reach our destination, the home of a nomadic (游牧的) herder (牧民) family.
My host, Batbayer, has a cheerful face, with deep wrinkles and a color from long hours working outdoors, giving
him the look of a sailor from an Ernest Hemingway novel. We have pre-arranged our visit but travellers in
Mongolia can drive up to pretty much any ger and feel welcomed to stay. You don’t knock on the door: when you
approach a nomadic family, a customary greeting is to say a kindly “Hold your dog,” even if you don’t see a dog.
We feast at the family home on one of the country’s most distinct and tasty dishes: khorkhog, or mutton
cooked using hot rocks. This comes served with onions, a variety of berries, and milk—besides more plates of
meat, all from the family’s own livestock (家畜).
Mongolia is home to one of the world’s few remaining truly nomadic cultures. About a fifth of the population
are herders, and nomadism is complicatedly woven into the country’s spirit. But modern life is catching up with the
people on the grassland at rapid speed. This is in large part what my book is about: an outsider’s exploration of a
society undergoing modernisation while trying to hold fast to its deeply rooted traditional values.
Many of the livestock here, especially the more valuable breeds such as horses, camels and cattle, are
implanted with microchips that can be monitored via satellite-based services. “I would like to use the internet more
because it’s fun and useful; but the animals like it here. This is a good place for them,” Batbayer says when I ask if
better internet connectivity might influence where to move his livestock next. “I would never choose Facebook
over the wellbeing of the animals.”
28. Which aspect of the herders does the author focus on in paragraph 1?
A. Living conditions. B. Pet preference. C. Reading habits. D. Friendliness.
29. What do we know about nomadic culture?
A. Herders’ life is being modernized.
B. It is the world’s dominant culture.
C. The majority of Mongolians are herders.
D. Herders have no access to fruits and vegetables
30. What can we infer from Batbayer’s words in the last paragraph?
A. He refuses to use social media. B. He will no longer employ microchips.
C. He will introduce more valuable breeds. D. He prioritizes the welfare of livestock.
31. What is the text?
A. A travel journal. B. A folk tale. C. A book review. D. A field report.
D
Silent reading is far from silent in your brain. Deep within your head there is a voice reading aloud each
word as your eyes pass over it.
Let’s do a seemingly unrelated experiment first. Turn on your television and radio. Try to understand both the
words from the television and the radio simultaneously. You might have noticed understanding one source required
ignoring the other, and you could feel your attention shifting between the two voices. Although we can listen to
multiple people speaking at the same time, we can only truly understand one person speaking at a time.
There are three major areas that allow you to understand spoken word. The first is the Auditory Cortex (听觉
皮层), which processes the pure characteristics of incoming sounds. Both sides of your brain contain this region.
The next area is the Broca/ Wernicke (B/W) network, which makes sense of the spoken word. This network exists
in only one side of your brain. This means that, although the sounds of language are initially processed in both sides
of the brain, spoken word must eventually be funneled (流经漏斗) into this single network. This quickly leads to a
bottleneck, which is controlled by the third area: the left Inferior Frontal Gyrus (IFG, 额下回). When you try to
understand two people speaking at the same time, this region effectively blocks one voice while it allows the other
to pass through the B/W bottleneck. Any information that does not immediately make it through the B/W network
disappears completely—there is no waitlist.
Now, let’s bring all the pieces together to see why it’s related to your silent reading. When you read, the first
region to demonstrate activation is the Visual Cortex, which processes the pure visual characteristics of incoming
sights. Immediately after the visual cortex activates, the speech areas of the brain fire up because your brain
processes your silent reading in a manner almost identical to the way in which it processes an actual, out-loud
speaking voice. For this reason, attempting to read while listening to someone speak is the same as trying to
understand two people speaking at the same time—it can’t be done!
32. What does the underlined word “simultaneously” in paragraph 2 mean?
A. At the same time. B. One at a time.
C. On the whole. D. Through comparison.
33. Which of the following best illustrates paragraph 3?
A. B.
C. D.
Note: disappear; wait
34. What may the author agree with?
A. Professors give a speech with a text-heavy PowerPoint slide.
B. Teachers keep silent when students are reading attentively.
C. Students solve math problem when following a lecture.
D. Students practice listening skills while reading novels.
35. Which of the following sentences can best se rve as an introduction to the text?
A. The art of conversation lies in listening.
B. What is reading, but a silent conversation.
C. We hear and understand only what we already know half.
D. Once an idea gets into your head, it’s probably going to stay there.

Why is a compliment (赞美) so impactful? One of the most important things to humans is to feel valued and
respected by others, says Vanessa Bohns, a social psychologist, who has researched compliments. According to her
research, people feel “significantly better” after both giving and receiving a compliment. 36
“You handled that situation so well.”
Bohns recently used her favorite compliment when she saw a server address a difficult situation with a
customer at the bar. “I like it so much because you use it in anxious moments where the other person is often
unsure of whether they handled a situation OK,” she says. In situations that call for a compliment, don’t
second-guess yourself. Give your compliments generously. 37 That concern is unfounded.
“ 38 ”
This compliment—one of Bohns’ favorites—works well among romantic partners and close family members.
“It’s a beautiful way to highlight how their presence turns life into something meaningful, despite boring routines
of our everyday lives,” she says. If you’re afraid that giving a compliment like this will feel strange, you’re not
alone. 39 If it makes you personally feel like the bar is lowered for you to give a compliment if you write it
down, or if you practice saying it out loud or giving your pet cat the compliment first, do that.
“Hey, great dress!”
Feel free to compliment strangers. In Bohns’ research, students on a college campus were told to approach a
stranger of the same gender and compliment them-about, for example, their nice shirt. Before heading out, the
study participants tended to underestimate their positive effect while overestimating how annoying it would be.
Across all contexts, strangers are more likely to be pleased than confused. Plus, who knows? 40
A. I love the way you bring out the best in people.
B. Respect is essential when you deliver compliments.
C. You make even ordinary moments feel extraordinary.
D. One way to overcome this fear is to do a practice run.
E. You might make a new friend in addition to making someone’s day.
F. With that in mind, we asked her to share some of her favorite compliments.
G. People sometimes worry that they’re going over and will start to sound insincere.

The Araguaia River is one of the biggest rivers in Brazil. It is home to thousands of animals, including bright
blue and yellow macaws. River dolphins swim and play in the water, and there are many different colored fish.
In one town, a 13-year-old boy named Rhenan would walk along the river every day. But looking at the river
made him worry because there was rubbish everywhere. He saw plastic bottles, old clothing, and empty food
packages. The water looked dark and ugly.
At school, Rhenan asked about the dirty river. “You wouldn’t want trash in your house,” said his teacher.
“Think about the poor animals!” For days, Rhenan couldn’t stop thinking about the river. It didn’t seem right to
him that this big, powerful river was filled with trash. “It’s hurting the animals in my area,” he thought. “And it’s
also hurting the families who live here.”
Then Rhenan had an idea. The next morning, Rhenan talked to his mother about his plan for the river. He
wanted to go around his town and ask for everyone’s help. Maybe if they all worked together, they could clean up
the river! Rhenan’s mother loved his idea. “I believe the most important thing for you, Rhenan, is learning how to
change things that you care about. That will stay with you forever,” she told him. She told him she would help him
all along the way.
The next day, Rhenan went to the police department. Then he went to the Mayor’s office. He visited other
schools, offices, and businesses. Soon he had a very big group of people who liked his idea!
