26、   Dining halls of the Hilton Wuhan Riverside have been busting with military personnel ever since the first delegations 24 and staff of the International Sports Military Council (CISM ) started checking into the hotel over a week ago.

This marks the first time China is staging a CISM event, with nearly 10,000 participants attending the 7th Military World Games in Wuhan. Many of them, along with some of the staff from CISM and the organizing committee, are staying at the Hilton Wuhan Riverside.

Dharmendra Singh from India doesn’t belong to either category of guests, even though his military-style haircut and two pins - a CISM pin and a Wuhan 2019 Games pin - on the lapel of his black suit might suggest otherwise. His ability to talk in Mandarin complicates things even further.

Singh is in charge of tending to the guests at the hotel, in particular those who take their meals in the dining halls. Yet, by his own admission, the 31-year-old, who has been a chef at the Hilton for nearly two years, feels as though he is also part of the “army family” at the hotel, and being part of Wuhan Games is fulfilling his “army dream”.

As a teen, he dreamed about serving his country as a soldier. However, the pressure of being the older of the two siblings in a financially challenged family meant Singh had to put his military dream on hold. To provide for his parents and younger brother, at 17 he set out to earn an income by making use of his culinary (烹饪的) skills.

“And, as fate would have it, a friend helped me get a job at the hotel.”

Pointing to the Wuhan Games and CISM pins that two diners gave him, Singh added: “Military people command respect due to their selflessness and honesty towards their work. I am glad that I am able to serve them and to honor their commitment to serve their nations.”

By the time the Games end on Oct 27, some of the guests might have handed Singh a few more pins to add to his collection; others might say goodbye with just a “thank you”.  Either way, he will remain grateful to them for providing memories for a lifetime.

【1】What can we learn from paragraph three?

A.Singh used to serve in Indian army.

B.Singh’s identity seems to be confusing.

C.Singh tends to wear a black suit every day.

D.Singh pretends to be one of the staff of CISM.

【2】Why will Singh be grateful to his guests?

A.Because they may show respect to him.

B.Because they will give him precious memories.

C.Because they will present him with some decorations.

D.Because they may help fulfill his dream to be a soldier.

【3】Which may be the best title of the passage?

A.Cooking up some special memories. B.Gathering of peace.

C.The thrill of World Military Game. D.Closing with a cultural flourish.

27、Neighbors used to wave to Timothy Masters whenever he stood outside his barn (谷仓). Across his soybean fields in this small town about ten miles north of Niagara Falls, they trade hellos every morning. That ended about a year ago, when a field of solar panels was set up on 18 acres of Masters’ land.

Masters is among a growing number of landowners trying to cash in on New York State’s push toward renewable energy. The solar company now using his land, he said, pays him 20 times more than the soybean farmer who had previously rented it. However, by replacing soybean plants with rows of silicon and metal solar panels, Masters has found himself the target of a growing backlash against the spread of solar farms in rural areas.

The tension over solar plants often resembles not-in-my-backyard, or NIMBY, disputes. “You’ll have people that get up and say, ‘I am green,’ ‘I’m for the environment,’ and ‘I’m pro this whole-green agenda.’ But then, all of a sudden, whenever one comes in, it changes.” Masters said. “What I notice is that people have ideals and values that they will put forth—until it comes around their own house.”

Opponents in New York cite a wide range of reasons. There are practical ones, like the danger of glare (刺眼的光) for drivers passing by. Some are about aesthetics (美学), such as the impact of solar panels on the rural landscape. There is even concern for endangered short-eared owls that may struggle to find field mice to eat amongst the panels. Small farmers who rent land from bigger farmers or landowners, meanwhile, have resisted for economic reasons. They fear they will be squeezed out by energy companies willing to pay more to use farmland for their solar panels.

Across western New York, anti-solar sentiment has surfaced on lawn signs and in Change. org petitions (请愿书). The movement has had some effect. At least a dozen towns in New York State have suspended new solar projects. Several others are weighing temporary bans. Local officials have said they need time to study the potential impact of solar farms.

The pushback is not unique to New York. In Virginia, anti-solar campaigners successfully blocked the plan of an 80-megawatt solar farm last year. This has inspired the launch of a nonprofit with a mission to help communities across the country to stop solar farms. The grass-roots backlash against solar farms has become so widespread that the U. S. Solar Energy Industries Association last year developed a manual that included coping with community sensitivities, in a move to fight increasing negativity.

【1】According to the article, what has Timothy Masters noticed?

A．Few people genuinely support the development of green energy technologies.

B．Many people believe solar farms should be set up in cities rather than in rural areas.

C．People support green energy only when the equipment is located away from their houses.

D．The past few years saw a drop in the number of people supporting green energy.

【2】Small farmers are opposed to solar farms because ________.

A．they think the farms have ruined the rural landscape

B．they consider it dangerous to drive by these farms at night

C．the farms may endanger many rare species, such as short-eared owls

D．they can’t rent farmland as they can’t pay as much as energy companies

【3】The underlined word “suspended” in Paragraph 5 is closest in meaning to ________.

A．launched

B．stopped

C．promoted

D．permitted

【4】Which of the following is the probably the best title for this passage?

A．Solar Farms Face Resistance

B．Solar Energy Industries Encounter Backlash

C．Farmers Dispute Renewable Energy

D．Solar Energy Industries Fight Pushback

28、   Long before "digital" and "native" were words that could reasonably fit into the same sentence, kids had adventures in the great outdoors—the sort of nature—filled adventures filmmaker Paul Ward experienced as child growing up on a farm.

“Unfortunately, children today don't have the same exposure to nature,” says the father of Estella, nine, and Sylvie, seven. “Instead, these digital natives are often glued to their screens.”

Wanting to reconnect this young generation with the outside world-through a medium that they're familiar with-Ward teamed up with film producer Vicky Pope to create Wild Eyes, a website that uses technology to help children to get in touch with nature.

Ward and Pope spent two years developing Wild Eyes, which requires users to complete interesting tasks in nature, such as setting up camp or finding a certain kind of bird. Once a challenge is complete, the player uploads a photo to the website to earn online encouragement and "likes" from other players.

“It's all about interacting with kids on their own terms,” says Ward.

Ward, who spent almost two years working as a producer for the Discovery Channel in Los Angeles, says the response so far has been positive. "We've had more than 15,000 site visitors to date, which is really encouraging."

Both Ward and Pope are working hard to ensure all the tasks are affordable and adaptable for both the home and classroom. They believe there's also a future benefit to turning square eyes into wild eyes.

“As David Attenborough says, people will only protect what they care about and they'll only care about what they've experienced,” he says. “Given so much of our lives are lived online, if we care about looking after our natural world, it's important we provide attractive digital experiences that engage young kids with nature.”

【1】How was Ward's childhood different from his children's?

A．He did a lot of outdoor activities.

B．His vocabulary was limited.

C．He seldom played in the wild.

D．He had no computer or TV set.

【2】What do children do on Wild Eyes?

A．Expand their knowledge about nature.

B．Complete their tasks given by the website.

C．Share their outdoor activities with others.

D．Participate in activities organized by the website.

【3】Why did Ward create Wild Eyes?

A．To help children get closer to nature.

B．To start a new business.

C．To develop a new network technology.

D．To help a film producer.

【4】What is the best title for the text?

A．Experiencing the Great Outdoors

B．Keeping away from the Screen

C．Combining the Screen with Nature

D．Looking after the Natural World

29、Jane Goodall was born in England in 1934. As a child, she liked to learn about animals and watch how they behaved, and dreamed of working with wild animals.

At 11, she decided that she wanted to go to Africa to live with and write about animals. But this was not the kind of thing young women growing up in the 1940s usually did. In 1957, Jane Goodall traveled to Africa. She soon met the well-known scientist Louis Leakey and began working for him as an assistant. Doctor Leakey saw that Jane had a lot of energy and loved animals. He asked her if she wanted to study the chimpanzees living by a lake in Tanzania. Certainly she agreed to take the job.

Observing chimps was not easy work. She learned to watch them from far away using binoculars. Over time, she slowly gained their trust. She gave the chimps human names such as David, Flo and Fifi. This unusual method upset many scientists. Most researchers would have identified the animals using numbers instead of names. But Jane defended naming them. She said that the chimpanzees had emotions, minds and different personalities, with complex family and social relationships. She observed they were meat eaters and skilled hunters. Later, she made an even more surprising discovery. She saw chimps making and using tools to help them trap insects. Her reports also upset many old beliefs. When she wrote to Louis Leakey to tell him about her discovery, he responded by saying: “Now we must redefine ‘tool’, redefine ‘man’, or accept chimpanzees as human.”

Jane Goodall spent many years studying chimps and reported chimp behavior that no one else had ever seen before. She has written many books for adults and children about wild chimpanzees. However, the destruction of the chimp’s natural environment led Jane Goodall to give her full attention to protection efforts. She spends about 300 days out of the year traveling around the world to discuss her many projects and goals. And Jane Goodall’s most recent book is called Hope for Animals and Their World.

【1】It can be inferred from the text that __________.

A．Jane Goodall’s love for animals began with the journey to Africa

B．Jane Goodall’s work in Tanzania went along smoothly

C．Jane Goodall is the pioneer in researching chimpanzees

D．Jane Goodall has traveled around the world to do research

【2】What does the underlined sentence mean in Paragraph 3?

A．Her method was not agreed with by many scientists.

B．Her method seemed impossible to many scientists.

C．Her method cheered the achievements of many scientists.

D．Her method inspired many scientists to make further discoveries.

【3】What is Jane Goodall’s most surprising discovery?

A．Chimps eat meat.

B．Chimps have feelings.

C．Chimps use tools to get food.

D．Chimps have close family relationships.

【4】What message is mainly expressed in Jane Goodall’s story?

A．Challenging others is a must in gaining fame.

B．Bravery is the key to making important discoveries.

C．High energy plays an important role in achieving great success.

D．Passion and hard work can make a difference in scientific research.
