Air-crash investigators Larry Vance and Anthony Brickhouse have details from certain jobs rooted in their memories. They could tell exact dates, locations, and fight numbers effortlessly Vance’s “big one” is Swiss Air Flight 11 in 1998. He was put in the position of dealing with all the families from very early on, many of whom held the hope that their relatives could have survived. All 229 passengers and crew died. Burning fabric; burning flesh. The smell catches in your throat, and stays in your mind long after you’ve left the scene. Investigations can take anywhere from days to years.
What can affect people in these jobs is the ongoing emotional damage, said Vivien Lee, a psychologist. But mental health assistance is often lacking within the industry. Evidence suggests that investigators, like first responders, can suffer from negative emotional effects, including frequent thoughts and PTSD (创伤后应激障碍) .
“One emotion of losing relatives is anger,” Brickhouse reflected. “And they’re looking to you to figure out what happened to their loved ones.” Depending on the size of the crash, that anger can come alongside a lot of international media attention.
But more often, Vance said, the questions he faces are perhaps even tougher to answer than what caused the crash. “How did my loved one die? What were they felling? What were they seeing?” And tougher still: “Were they suffering?”
Listening to the black box recordings takes an emotional damage. He said it was more unbearable by knowing that he’s listening to the final minutes of someone’s life. Some people in his industry listen to a black box recording once and choose to never do it again, he said.
The knowledge that they’re doing an essential job can make the tougher aspects of the work a little easier. “The end result of your work is that you try to make the world a safer place, so that this doesn’t happen to somebody else,” Vance said.
24. What can be inferred about the air-crash investigators?
A.They often get throat problems. B.They must have good memories.
C.They experienced the same accident. D.They have to deal with many difficulties.
25.What should be done to help the air-crash investigators?
A.Helping them avoid air crashes.
B.Sending first respondents with them.
C.Offering qualified psychologists.
D.Teaching them how to communicate.
26.What is the most difficult part in Vance’s job?
A.Finding the black box. B.Answering the questions.
C.Smelling the burning things. D.Investigating the cause of the crash.
27.Which word can be used to describe the air-crash investigators?
A.Generous. B.Easy-going. C.Self-giving. D.Independent.
C
Most recently, Zhang Chaofan has been honored as a national ethical role model at the Great Hall of the People in Beijing.
Over the past six years, Zhang has donated 1.35 million yuan and raised 5.2 million yuan from the public to help more than 400 people with health problems—including teachers with severe cancer, disabled children and autistic children in poor families—learn traditional Chinese culture.
She has also made more than 700 public welfare speeches at universities and in poor mountain areas, teaching people how to gain self-esteem, confidence, self-reliance and self-improvement.
The young girl was born without a left forearm in Changchun, Jilin Province, but her constant drive to become stronger has inspired many people.
In 2015, Zhang rejected an offer of postgraduate study from a famous university and set up a calligraphy and painting school in Changchun. When she found that some parents were unable to afford their children’s education fees, she made the lessons free and began providing 300,000 yuan annually to help them through her foundation.
“I think it’s important for teenagers to receive quality education because they are the future of the country,” she said. “I will make great efforts to help them get equal opportunities to pursue their dreams and inspire them to do their best.”
In early 2020, her school stopped all courses because of the pandemic, but she didn’t stop her public welfare activities. She raised materials and donations worth more than 8 million yuan. Then she sent masks, protective suits, and daily necessities to medical workers.
“Women in the new era should have the courage to create value and also have a sense of social responsibility,” she said. “It is my great honor to be elected as a role model. This will become a driving force for me to forge ahead and pass on the seeds of public welfare through even greater efforts.”
28. What do we know about Zhang Chaofan?
A.She donated all her money to help people in difficulty.
B.She will be elected as a national ethical role model in Beijing.
C.She made many public speeches at universities in poor mountain areas.
D.She provided many free lessons for the children who couldn’t afford them.
29.According to the passage, which words can best describe Zhang Chaofan?
A.Enthusiastic and entertaining. B.Devoted and responsible.
C.Capable and creative. D.Professional and talented.
30.What will Zhang Chaofan do in the future according to the last paragraph?
A.She will teach girls to win more prizes through her courses.
B.She will influence many girls like her to be painters and calligraphers.
C.She will continue her career and spread her public welfare activities.
D.She will encourage women in the new era to be courageous and sociable.
31.What does the passage mainly talk about?
A.Only the strong-willed girl can reach her goals.
B.Disability and experience made the girl strong.
C.A girl with the broken wing followed her dream bravely.
D.Kindness and generosity helped the girl be well-known.
D
It turns out that sunflowers are more than just a pretty face: the ultraviolet (紫外线的) colours of their flowers not only attract pollinators (传粉者), but also help the plant regulate water loss, according to new research.
The yellow sunflower is a familiar sight, but it’s hiding something from the human eye—an ultraviolet bullseye (靶心) pattern, invisible to humans but not to most insects including bees. These bullseye patterns have long been known to improve the attractiveness of flowers to pollinators by increasing their visibility.
“Unexpectedly, we noticed that sunflowers growing in drier climates have flowers with larger ultraviolet bullseyes, and found that those flowers are able to keep water more efficiently. This suggests that these larger ultraviolet bullseyes help plants adapt to these drier environments,” says Dr. Marco Todesco.
Dr. Todesco and his colleagues grew almost 2,000 wild sunflowers of two species at the university in 2016 and 2019. They measured the sunflowers’ ultraviolet patterns, and analyzed the plants’ genes, and found that wild sunflowers from different parts of North America had ultraviolet bullseyes of very different sizes.
Larger floral ultraviolet patterns that have more of these compounds could help reduce the amount of water loss from a sunflower in environments with lower humidity (湿度), preventing too much water loss. In humid, hot environments, smaller ultraviolet patterns would promote the water loss, keeping the plant cool and avoiding overheating.
Sunflowers are planted for various purposes, include ng sunflower oil production, a roughly $20 billion industry in 2020. This research could help add to knowledge about how to attract pollinators, potentially increasing crop yields, says Dr. Todesco. “This work also helps us understand how sunflowers, and potentially other plants, better adapt to different areas or temperatures, which could be important in a warming climate.”
32. What do we know about sunflowers?
A.They don’t need pollinators.
B.Their flowers have special functions.
C.Their flowers can drive the insects away.
D.They can be grown in extremely cold areas.
33.What did Dr. Todesco and his colleagues do?
A.They analyzed 2000 kinds of sunflowers.
B.They planted sunflowers to carry out research.
C.They travelled to different parts of South America.
D.They helped people in North America plant sunflowers.
34.What is Dr. Todesco’s attitude to the research on sunflowers?
A.Positive. B.Doubtful. C.Negative. D.Critical.
35.What can be the best title for the text?
A.A Hidden Function of Flowers of Sunflowers
B.Researchers Found a New Species of Sunflower
C.Sunflowers Can Change the Colours of Sunshine
D.Ultraviolet Bullseye Patterns Attract More Insects

阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
When we encounter a stressful or frightening situation, our heart rate increases, our breath quickens, and our muscles become tense. 36 In fact, for most of history, we have assumed that there is a line separating our natural response and our learned behavior. But recent brain research has proved that our brain can change in structure and function throughout our life, depending on our experiences. So would it be possible to train our brain to control our “natural responses,” such as to fear?
One of the most surprising ways to control our fear response is breathing. Combat trainers, for example, use “tactical (战术性) breathing” techniques to prepare FBI agents for crisis situations. 37 One version that police officers learn works like this: Breathe in for four counts; hold for four counts; breathe out for four counts; hold for four; start again. How could something so simple be so powerful?
The breath is one of the few actions that lie in both our somatic nervous system (which we can consciously control) and our autonomic system (which includes our heartbeat and other actions we cannot easily access). 38 By consciously slowing down the breath, we can slow down the natural fear response that otherwise takes over.
39 Sara Lazar, an instructor at Harvard Medical School, compared the brain images of meditators (冥想者) with those of nonmeditating people. She found the meditators had 5 percent thicker brain tissue in the parts of the brain that are used during meditation — that is, the parts that handle emotion regulation, attention, and working memory, all of which help control stress.
Such studies suggest that meditators — like deep-breathing police officers — may have found a way for us to evolve past the basic human fear response. 40
A.These all happen naturally.
B.But this may not be the case.
C.So the breath is a bridge between the two.
D.How rhythmic breathing can actually change the brain?
E.These are basically the same concepts taught in yoga classes.
F.Can we train our brain to better deal with life-threatening situations?
G.With training, it may be possible to become better prepared for a life-or-death situation.

Whether or not we care to admit it, we’re all familiar with procrastination:waiting until the last minute to catch up with pressing tasks. The antidote (矫正方法) — while easier said than done — is 41 to start on your assignments sooner. But in your pursuit of 42 procrastination, is it possible to go too far?
David Rosenbaum, a professor of psychology at the University of California, Riverside, certainly thinks so. His research 43 on the dangers of “precrastination”, the 44 to rush too quickly into tasks.
As 45 to a procrastinator, who might leave an inbox full of emails untouched until the next day, a precrastinator would read and 46 to each of them first thing in the morning. This can mean reducing a lot of amount of the precious energy they might need for a more urgent 47 later on.
So why do people precrastinate? Rosenbaum says that for most, it’s tough to 48 reaching for low-hanging fruit. When you complete simple short-term tasks, you have one fewer thing to think about — “I can wrap this up in five minutes. Why not 49 it now?”
The real 50 of precrastination comes when, in your rush to finish, you encounter the naturally higher chance of doing your work incompletely or inaccurately. In the 51 of emails, sometimes waiting to respond can show respect for 52 thought over expediency (权宜之计).
Of course, precrastination is not without its benefits, but it’s 53 to do so only when it makes sense. Chronic precrastinators must also realise that it’s OK to set unimportant things aside, because they will not require huge mental 54 later in the day, Rosenbaum says. Besides, it should be agreed in our society that it’s OK to be allowed to 55 .

阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Fiona Simpson, 23, was on her way home. She was driving on the D'Aguilar Highwav in Queensland, Australia, It was a long, lonely road, but she had company at least. Her 78-year-old grandmother and four-month-old daughter were with her for the journey.
Clouds started to roll in overhead. Fiona hadn't bothered to listen to the weather report that morning. Mostly because she had expected to arrive home before any sort of downpour hit. As she drove down the D’Aguilar Highway, however, the slight pattering(拍打) of rain began to beat into an angry drum beat upon the roof of the car.
Even though she had been driving quite slowly, she could hardly see the lines in the road. The pouring rain soon became so heavy that her windshield wipers(雨刮器) couldn't keep up. Fiona knew that her only option was to pull the car onto the side of the road until the bad weather lessened.
She stopped the car when suddenly she heard a sound that completely shocked her. The loud bang came from behind her, right near the window where her daughter sat. The glass of the window was broken, and a moment later she discovered that something equally sharp and dangerous was hitting her child.
It was hailstones(冰雹), nearly golf-ball-sized chunks of ice falling from the sky. Hailstones can cause serious damage. Even cattle can be killed as well if they do not seek shelter. Fiona dived into the back seat and tried to form a human shield(挡板) over the baby. Meanwhile, the hailstone was battering the roof of the car so loudly that she couldn't even hear the child crying beneath her.
Queensland had apparently been hit with a super-cell storm that resulted in tennis-ball-sized hailstones. Soon, even Grandma was being battered with the same falling ice. Fiona moved towards the front, still holding her baby in her arms, and tried to shield Grandma as well. Fiona found them caught right in the middle of the storm with nowhere to hide.
Paragraph 1: At this time, a truck pulled off beside them.
Paragraph 2:After quite a long time, the storm passed.

Dear Sir or Madam ,
I am writing to show my concern about wildlife because at present some wild animals are dying out or in danger.
On the one hand, people hunt animals for food or for clothing, because their fur can be made into clothes. On the other hand, we humans can’t live in harmony with animals which they think are fierce and can attack them. For this reason, they are afraid of wildlife and endanger them.
In order to protect the wildlife from extinction, I suggest that we should set up some special zones for wildlife. What’s more, the most important thing is letting people realize the importance of wildlife protection. Only in this way can wild animals be saved.
Your’s

Paragraph 1:
At this time, a truck pulled off beside them. Aware that the people were trapped in the sudden extreme weather, two men on the truck immediately got off and offered to help. They firstly tried to took the crying baby out of the car by sheltering him from hailstones with a protective plate. Shortly after settling the baby on the backseat of the truck safely, they continued to transfer Fiona and her grandmother to their truck. They were told to stay there to wait for the storm to stop.
Paragraph 2:
After quite a long time, the storm passed. All of people on the truck felt relieved. With the help of two men, they got off. Faced up with her own car, whose windows had been seriously damaged, Fiona called for rescue and waited for help. It was not until they were picked up by the rescue workers that the two men drove off. In spite of the terrible experience, Fiona felt so lucky and grateful for the kind act from the strangers
