When it cmes t the smartest species within the animal kingdm, elephants are definitely near the tp f the list. Studies have shwn that elephants have cmplex behavirs and survival skills. After all, an elephant’s brain weighs almst 5 kilgrams and has three times mre neurns (神经元) than a typical human brain.
Elephants have impressive memries. We’ve all heard the ld saying “an elephant never frgets” at sme pint. As it turns ut, the saying is based n far mre truth than yu’d think. Elephants are capable f remembering fd and water lcatins fr amazingly lng perids f time! Elephants als remember friends and even enemies fr several years.
The mst well-knwn methd f measuring animal intelligence is the “mirrr test”. They may try t fight with their reflectin immediately. But elephants are capable f recgnizing themselves in a mirrr.
When it cmes t scial intelligence, elephants are als amazingly utstanding! They care deeply fr and prtect ne anther within their family grups. Elephants cmmnly wrk tgether t access and share resurces like fd and water r t prtect each ther frm enemies. In additin, elephants are expert at cmmunicatin. They use all their senses—hearing, sight, smell, taste, and tuch when interacting with each ther. Their emtinal range is als impressive. They will even get int deep srrw when a clse cmpanin r family member dies.
It turns ut that elephants are masters t using tls like rcks and tree branches fr very cmplex purpses! Their strng, flexible trunks are a huge help t them. Researchers have bserved elephants using branches t knck fruits and leaves ut f trees s they and their grup members can eat them. The use f tls is a key determinant (决定因素) f animal intelligence, as it takes a highly intelligent animal t figure ut and remember hw t use them.

C Excellent surviving skills.D. Neurns similar t humans’.
25. What can be knwn abut the ld saying?
A. It is far frm true.B. It really makes sense.C. It remains t be prved.D. It is f great significance.
26. What is measured thrugh the “mirrr test”?
A. Scial behavir.B. Use f tls.C. Respnse speed.D. Self awareness.
27. Hw many aspects are mentined t shw elephants’ intelligence?

Streaming first became ppular in 2005, thanks t YuTube. Nwadays nearly three quarters f American husehlds subscribe t at least ne vide streaming service. With almst 200 millin subscribers wrldwide and a billin hurs f cntent viewed each week, Netflix is by far the biggest paid service. N. 2 is Amazn Prime Vide. But fr every Gliath, there are a hundred Davids. Many smaller streaming services shw nthing but sprts, classic mvies, r Japanese anime.
In the early days f steaming the appeal was the lwer cst, and it still is. The average streamer spends $37 a mnth (and subscribes t three streaming platfrm, while the average cable (有线电视) user pays mre than $200 per mnth. Still streaming has becme mre expensive in recent years. In 2019, Netflix raised the price f its basic service 12.5 percent, t $8.99 a mnth. A quarter f is subscribers, wh prtested price increases, said they wuld cancel their subscriptins. Few did.
A majr reasn: Streaming netwrks have becme hme t many f the mst ppular TV series, including recent Emmy winners. They ffer full-length feature films as well, and last year, Netflix received mre Oscar nminatins (提名) than any ther media cmpany. In fact, streaming has changed the Oscar cmpetitin, at least fr this year. Usually nly films shwn in theaters are cnsidered, but because f the crnavirus, all mvies released nline in 2020 are qualified fr the 2021 Academy Awards. That shift is especially gd news fr Disney, which is putting the much anticipated mvie Mulan n its new streaming service, Disney+. But watching Mulan frm yur wn hme will cst $29.99---n tp f the service's mnthly fee f $6.99.
T much streaming can have its disadvantages, hwever. There are thse wh binge-watch, a term Merriam-Webster added in 2017 with the definitin “t watch many r all episdes f (a TV series) n end." Alejandr Frags frm New Yrk hlds the Guinness Wrld Recrd: 94 straight hurs.

In 2016, in an Illinis twn called Cahkia, a wman was sent t prisn just because she failed t tend her lawn (草坪). In 2019, a Flrida man was fined $30,000 by the city f Dunedin fr allwing his grass t grw mre than 10 inches in height. These examples, while extreme, are nt rare ccurrence in America.
A study estimated that turf grasses (lawns, parks, athletic fields, etc) cver ver 40 millin acres in the cntinental U.S., an area larger than any crp area. And Americans spend as much as $60 billin a year maintaining these grasses. These impressive data are the result f Americans’ setting much stre by these pieces f greenery fr several centuries.
Centuries ag, nly thse with cnsiderable wealth culd wn the resurces needed t maintain these displays. In the mdern wrld, lawns have gradually changed frm the estates f the wealthy t the frnt yards f cmmn peple. Acrss America, millins f families nw prudly present their grass t their neighbrs and drivers by carefully weeding, watering, fertilizing and mving these small-scale representatins f the grunds.
With this cntext in mind, it’s easy t see well-tended lawns in America. Peple tend t use lawns t create an impressin f rder r t indicate a sense f persnal success. The relative health and attractiveness f the grass in their yard becmes a barmeter (晴雨表) fr their life as whle.
Hwever, with s many acres cvered by the grass, the influence assciated with lawn maintenance is mre than just psychlgical. T begin, a lawn requires massive quantities f resurces t sustain. The U.S. Department f Agriculture estimates that lawns accunt fr abut half f hmewner’s water use, much f which is wasted. Additinally, Americans are reprted t use 80 millin punds f chemicals n their lawns each year. The prcess f tending the lawn als cntributes t air pllutin.
These surprising data mean we need t questin whether lawns prvide us with enugh benefit t justify their widespread existence.
32. Why are the tw lawn-related cases mentined in the first paragraph?
A. T explain the effectiveness f American laws
B. T shw the significance f lawns in American sciety.
C. T stress Americans’ awareness f envirnmental prtectin.
D. T reveal the cst f maintaining lawns in Americans’ daily life.
33. What des the underlined part in the secnd paragraph mean?
A. Making full use f.B. Facing the cnsequence f.
C. Attaching great imprtance t.D. Shuldering the respnsibility fr.
34. Why d Americans have a preference fr well-tended lawns?
A. Because f the psychlgical functin f lawns.
B. Because f the ppularity f lawns in Americans’ life
C. Because f the purpse f placing barmeters in lawns.
D. Because f the methd f planting healthy and attractive lawns.
35. What can we knw abut the lawns in the U.S. accrding t the passage?
A. They will be expanded t cver mre lands.
B. They are f significant envirnmental cncerns.
C. They will mtivate peple t be health-cnscius.
D. They can prmte the develpment f the chemical industry.

When a trnad hit a small twn nearby, many families were left hmeless. Afterward, all the lcal newspapers carried stries f the families wh suffered the hardest t appeal t peple’s attentin and assistance.
One Sunday, a particular picture especially tuched me. A yung wman std in frnt f a mbile hme, a depressed expressin n her face. A yung by, seven r eight years ld. std at her side, eyes dwncast. Hiding behind her skirt was a tiny girl wh stared int the camera, wide eyes with cnfusin and fear. The article belw gave clthing sizes clsely matched urs. This wuld be a gd pprtunity t teach my seven-year-ld twins. Brad and Brett, and three-year-ld Meghan t help thse less frtunate than themselves.
“We have s much. And these pr peple nw have nthing” I said. “We’ll share what we have with them,” I brught three large bxes dwn frm the rm upstairs and placed them in the living rm. Meghan watched seriusly, as the bys and I filled ne f the bxes with canned gds and fds. While I srted thrugh ur clthes, I encuraged the bys t g thrugh their tys and dnate sme f their less favrite things. The bys were pleased t jin. Brad rse and went t his rm fast. He came back bringing his actin figures that he played with nt s frequently. Brett als jumped up and ran t fetch sme f his Matchbx cars and airplane mdels. Meghan watched quietly as the bys piled up abandned tys.
The bys placed the bjects they had chsen t dnate int ne f the bxes while I filled the third bx with clthes. Meghan walked up with Lucy, her wrn, faded, best-lved rag dll hugged tightly t her chest. “I’ll help yu find smething fr the little girl, t.” I said t the little Meghan.
Para. 1:
“Mmmy I will give Lucy t them,” Meghan turned t me.

Recgnizing what little Meghan’s gesture meant, I remved my ld jacket frm the bx f clthes.

“Mmmy, I will give Lucy t them,” Meghan turned t me. “Oh, hney,” I said. “Yu dn't have t give Lucy. Yu lve her s much.” Meghan ndded seriusly, eyes glistening with tears. “Lucy makes me happy, Mmmy.
