26、   It's hard to overstate the importance of rainforests in keeping the world a place we want to go on living in. Yet they are being cleared at a terrifying rate, in part because methods to check on their protection are failing. The Nature Conservancy think they have a solution by listening to the rainforests' voices, and researchers they have partnered with have published a paper in Science confirming its viability(可行性).

Forest monitors struggle to keep up with what is happening in areas that are large and remote from population centers. Satellite images can flag complete destruction, but they do a poor job of measuring when a forest's diversity is degraded. Researchers have started tying small, solar-powered sound recorders to trees, setting them to listen at regular intervals, particularly dawn and dusk when the rainforest is most alive. The recorders provide an indication(显示) of the animal sounds for hundreds of meters in all directions. This marks a major advance over camera traps, which of course only point in one direction and are blocked from seeing far.

Reviewing several studies on the workings of these, Dr. Zuzana Burivalova of Princeton University and co-authors report that these sound recorders supply an amount of information about the forests' true condition, far more than can be showed by other remote sensors. Moreover, it is far cheaper to visit an area once to put in a recorder than to stick around for larger measurements.

Burivalova and colleagues also note some less obvious advantages. Once the data is uploaded, it can be analyzed by anyone. Deep learning programs can be used to tie sounds to their makers. Calls can be assessed in many ways, revealing both the number of noisy animals in the recorders' vicinity(附近) and the diversity of species that make them. The authors call for "a global organization to host a global acoustic(声学) platform" to provide a massive database of rainforest sounds, allowing comparisons between healthy and degraded rainforests half a world apart.

【1】What is the possible reason for the rainforests disappearing rapidly according to paragraph 1?

A.The climate changes have a bad effect on it.

B.People attach no importance to its protection.

C.Goods related to rainforests are popular among consumers.

D.There is a lack of good means to monitor its real condition.

【2】What is the disadvantage of the Satellite images?

A.It cannot keep track of the wildlife in the forest.

B.It cannot predict the wildlife diversity with cameras.

C.It cannot figure out the wildlife diversity in the forest.

D.It cannot mark the disappearance of the rainforests clearly.

【3】What can we learn from paragraph 3?

A.The forests' true condition is worse than expected.

B.The sound recorders are more efficient and reliable.

C.The remote sensors are far more effective than the sound recorders.

D.They need larger measurements to record the rainforest sounds.

【4】What does the underlined word "them" in paragraph 4 refer to?

A.Animal calls. B.Obvious advantages.

C.Previous studies. D.Nearby recorders.

27、   Food is so much a part of daily life that people often take eating for granted. 【1】Now is a good time for you to think carefully about this question: What kinds of needs does food meet?

【2】 Food supplies the energy needed for day-to-day activities. Eating the right foods each day helps your body perform important functions.

Physical needs are not the only ones people satisfy by eating every day. People often eat even when they are not hungry. Some people eat to comfort themselves whenever they are upset or nervous. 【3】

Food serves social needs as well as physical and emotional ones. People often combine eating with the company of friends and family because both experiences are pleasurable. In some families, mealtime is the only time of day that the whole family can be together. 【4】Many social occasions are associated with specific foods---birthday cakes, Thanksgiving turkeys, or Fourth of July cookouts. 【5】

A．Food also plays an important role in keeping social traditions.

B．Food has many purposes.

C．They are not even aware of their own eating habit.

D．These traditions provide links between food and social activities.

E．Like other living things, people need energy to live.

F．No matter what your age, a strong body can protect you from diseases.

G．Others eat to remove boredom.

28、   True friendship is like sound health; the value of it is seldom known until it is lost:—Charles Caleb Colton Just like in any other relationship, arguments and fights are also a part of friendship. You will hardly find friends who have never fought with one another. Whatever the reason is, if a person feels that he is responsible for creating the differences, it is important that he apologizes to his friend.

Though you can use the email, text messages or chat for expressing your apology, the good old way of saying sorry to your friend through a letter will surely have a great effect on him. This will make your friend realize that your efforts of saying sorry are genuine and you really care for him.

Points to Remember:

Timing: Write the letter at the proper time. It is not advisable to put off it for too long.

Words: While writing the letter, what matters the most is that you truly feel sorry.

Sequence: Always begin by apologizing and saying sorry for your mistake. Then explain to him your side of the story. In the third and last paragraph, talk about what his friendship means to you and make a promise of not repeating the mistake.

Delivery: You earn either post it or deliver the letter personally or through someone else. You can also keep it at a location where your friend will be able to find it easily.

Some people may try to point out the friend's mistake while writing the letter. Avoid this completely, as it can make matters worse. The letter has to be brief and should only talk about the subject that has led to your apology. Keep patient and do not expect immediate results. In some cases, it may take time for the person to forgive and forget.

【1】The saying in the first paragraph is used to .

A. let readers study a famous saying

B. introduce the topic of the passage

C. show who is Charles Caleb Colton

【4】When writing a letter of apology, you should   .

A. try to point out the friend's mistake

D. write the importance of your friendship in the first paragraph

29、   Many of the serious health concerns in modern America can be linked to poor diet．People who regularly consume foods high in salt, sugar, and fats not only increase their chances of being overweight, but also increase their risks of developing diseases. Although some people who regularly consume unhealthy foods do so knowingly, there are also some people that remains undereducated about proper nutrition( 营 养 ). What is more, people who live in food deserts—areas in low-income(低收入) neighborhoods that lack easy access(路径) to healthy, affordable food—may not even have the opportunity to get nutritious food.

Food deserts are located in low-income areas and most often develop when major supermarket chains either move out   of these areas or simply avoid building stores there in the first place. These supermarket chains tend to limit their store locations to richer urban or suburban neighborhoods．This means that those who live in low-income areas often live miles away from the fresh meats and dairy products available at supermarkets. People of these areas are thus forced to travel long distances to do their grocery shopping, or else they are limited to the food available at local convenience stores. These stores often only sell packaged, processed foods that offer little nutrition.

Furthermore, there are too many fast food restaurants in low-income areas; recent research suggests that those living in the poorest areas of a city experience 2.5 times more exposure to fast food restaurants than people in the richest areas of the city. Because people who live in  food deserts often get their meals from fast food restaurants or convenience stores, they suffer from a variety of health problems．Research has found that people who live in low-income neighborhoods are much more likely to develop healthy problems than those who live in richer neighborhoods.

Of course, it seems obvious that more supermarkets should be built in low-income neighborhoods. But in fact, it is difficult to attract supermarket chains into poor areas because poorer people have less money to spend on food. One way that the government can help to solve this problem is by offering tax breaks or other inspiring policies for supermarkets in low-income areas. In 2010, the Obama administration started the Healthy Food Financing program, which is designed to help bring grocery stores into food deserts.

While the government can improve low-income people’s access to healthy food to some extent, local actions often have a stronger and more immediate influence．Community gardens, independent food stores, and farmers’ markets are all examples of local actions that can take the place of the opening of a major chain supermarket. These efforts can be extremely beneficial, not only in providing people with access to healthier foods, but also in producing a sense of community in the neighborhoods.

【1】What is mainly talked about in this passage?

A.Relationship between diet and disease.

B.Lack of health awareness among people.

C.Problems of food deserts and their solutions.

D.Importance of grocery planting in poor areas.

【2】What can be learned from Paragraph 3 and Paragraph 4?

A.People in rich areas are easier to develop diseases.

B.Fast food restaurants care much about people’s health.

C.People in low-income areas like shopping in supermarkets.

D.Supermarket chains are unwilling to open stores in poor areas.

【3】What does the writer want to tell us from the last two paragraphs?

A.Local actions should be encouraged and supported.

B.Supermarkets should take social responsibility.

C.Education for healthy diet must be improved.

D.Governments fail to improve people’s health.
