In 1823, a young woman noticed a strange fossil (化石) on a beach near Lyme Regis, England. She dug out the bones and had them carried to her home.She carefully arranged the skeleton(骨架) on a table. Then she saw something extraordinary. The creature’s neck was a meter long-more than half the length of its body. It was unlike any animal living on Earth.
Even at a young age, Mary Anning had a talent for spotting unusual fossils Her father died in 1810, leaving her family in.debt, so Mary began selling her fossils to collectors. At 12, she made her first major discovery—a crocodile-like skull(头骨) with a long skeleton. It turned out to be a sea creature that lived long ago. Named ichthyosaur, or “fish-lizard”, it was the first extinct animal known to science.
Fossil hunting brought in money, but it was a dangerous job. One day, a rock fall killed her dog and almost buried Mary. Despite the dangers, she continued to look for mew finds The long-necked fossil she unearthed in 1823 was another long-dead sea reptile(爬行动物). Known as a plesiosaur, it would inspire legends—including that of the Loch Ness Monster.
Mary was not only a skilled fossil hunter; she also carefully examined and recorded her finds. However, she wasn’t widely recognized in the scientific community. Only one of her scientific writings got published in her lifetime, in 1839. She was also not allowed to join London’s Geological Society, as membership was only available to men.
Mary Anning died in 1847, but her contributions have not been forgotten. Her finds are now displayed in museums in London and Paris. The beach near her home is a UNFSCO World Heritage Site, known as the Jurassic Coast. Her life continues to inspire visitors hoping to find their own fossil wonders. According to Britain’s Natural History Museum, Mary Anning was “tho greatest fossil hunter the world has ever known”.

Languages have been coming and going for thousands of years, but in recent times there has been less coming and a lot more going. When the world was still populated by hunter-gatherers, small, closely related groups developed their own forms of speech independent of each other. Some language experts believe that 10,000 years ago, when the world had just five to ten million people, they spoke perhaps 12,000 languages between them.
Soon afterwards,many of those people started settling down(定居)to become farmers,and their languages too became more settled and fewer in number. In recent centuries, trade, industrialization, the development of the nation-state and the development of education, especially globalization and better communications in the past few decades, all have caused many languages to disappear, and dominant languages such as English, Spanish and Chinese are increasingly taking over.
At present, the world has about 6,800 languages. The distribution (分布) of these languages is hugely unequal. The general rule is that mild zones have relatively few languages, often spoken by many people, while hot, wet zones have lots, often spoken by small numbers. Europe has only around 200 languages; the Americas about 1,000; Africa 2 400; and Asia and the Pacific perhaps 3,200, of which Papua New Guinea alone accounts for well over 800.The median number (中位数)of speakers is a mere 6,000, which means that half the world's languages are spoken by fewer people than that.
Already well over 400 of the total of, 6,800 languages are close to extinction (消亡), with only a few elderly speakers left. Take, for example, Busuu in Cameroon (eight remaining speakers), Chiapaneco in Mexico (150), Lipan Apache in the United States (two or three) or Wadjigu in Australia (one, with a question-mark): none of these seems to have much chance of survival.
28. What can we know about languages in hunter-gatherer times?
A. They developed very fast. B. They were large in number.
C.They had similar forms. D. They were closely connected.
29. Which of the following best explains “dominant” underlined in paragraph 2?
A. Graceful B.Advanced. C.Powerful. D . Modern.
30. How many languages are spoken by less than 6,000 people at present?
A. About 6,800 B. About 3,400 C. About 2,400 D. About 1,200
31. What is the main idea of the text?
A. New languages will be created.
B. People’s lifestyles are reflected in languages.
C. Human development results in fewer languages.
D. Geography determines language evolution.
D
Pioneers like Harvard social ecologist Stephen Kellert were among the first to champion modem biophilic design. Kellert believed that weaving nature into living and workspaces is important for good physical and mental health.
Humans are born to be attracted by nature, Kellert noted. His theories include access to natural light, air, water, and plants. Using materials such as wood and stone, biophilic designs help humans to feel closer to nature.
Biophilic designs can be seen all over the world. Examples include the Changi Airport in Singapore, with its forest garden and world's largest indoor waterfall fed by rainwater, and the Swedish Mirror Cube Tree House Hotel, mainly made of used plywood. Incredible biophilic homes include One Central Park in Sydney, apartment blocks featuring hanging gardens on the outside. The buildings recycle their own water and a suspended(悬浮的)mirror system reflects(反射) sunlight down onto gardens below.
Putting biophilic design to work for society could prevent millions in healthcare costs, with one study estimating annual savings of $93 million in the US alone. Hospital design has long been influenced by access to sunlight and views of nature. Modern buildings like the Khoo Teck Puat Hospital in Singapore are closely related to their surroundings. The hospital channels outdoor air to cool the inside, and uses reflective sunshades to direct light to brighten wards and save energy.
The aim of these designs is to stress the human connection to nature by fitting buildings into the local environment. But how do we bring biophilia into our homes? Start with house plants. New smart home apps can also provide nature experiences such as birdsong and a forest image on the ceiling, helping people to create a restful space indoors.
But perhaps the best way to change society with biophilic designs is to start with schools. Children learn better and feel more relaxed in biophilic settings. So the Children and Nature Network is working with schools to create green schoolyards for better physical and mental health and to increase opportunities for outdoor learning. Biophilic designers are bringing nature into classrooms through natural patterns, shapes and colors.
32. According to the passage, what does Stephen Kellert probably believe?
A. Humans love nature less as they age
B. Nature can improve companies’ profit.
C. Natural materials have taken over in designs.
D. Designs should reconnect humans with nature.
33. What do the examples of biophilic designs in paragraph 3 and 4 have in common?
A. They apply smart home technology.
B. They include indoor waterfalls and gardens.
C. They made good uso of tho natural surroundings.
D. They use local resources to cut the cost of buildings.
34. We can learn from the last paragraph that biophilic designs .
A. have greatly changed schools.
B. help improve students’ performance.
C. focus mainly on students’ mental health.
D. have moved most of the classrooms outside.
35. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?
A. Getting Close to Nature. B. Live Naturally and Simply
C. The Best Biophilic Designs D. Let’s Invite Nature Inside

Most of us observed much nrore as children than we do as adults. A child's day is filled with amazement, newness and wonder 36 But as we grow up, differences that were sharp to us as children become unclear; we are no longer sensitive to new stimulation (刺激), new ideas. 37 although it takes practice and requires breaking some bad habits.
The first step in awakening senses is to stop predicting what we are going to see and feel before it occurs. 38 One chilly night when hiking with some students, I mentioned that we were going to cross a mountain stream. The students began complaining about how cold it'd be. We reached the stream, and they unwillingly walked ahead. They were almost knee-deep when they realized it was a hot spring.
39 . I saw bird watchers who spotted a bird, immediately looked it up in field guides, and said, a “ruby-crowned kinglet” and checked it off. They no longer paid attention to the bird and never learned what it was doing.
The pressures of “time” and “destination” are further blocks to awareness. I encountered many hikers who were headed to a distant camp-ground with just enough time to get there before dark 40 They never take a moment to see what’s around them. I asked them what they’d seen. “Oh, a few birds,” they said. They seemed bent on their destinations.
Nature seems to unfold to people who watch and wait. Next time you take a walk, take in all the sights, sounds and sensations. Wander in this frame of mind and you’ll open a new dimension to your life.
A. This blocks awareness
B. They don’t know what awareness is.
C. Curiosity gave us all a natural awareness.
D. It seldom occurred to them to explore a little bit.
E. Relearning the art of seeing the world around us is simple
F. Being sharp doesn't mean we have to stay alert all the time
G. Another block to awareness is our addiction to naming things

Text 10
As a young child,I always enjoyed physical challenges more than mental ones. I liked to run and build swings. At that stage I hadn’t yet learned to climb or swim,but that is something I would also have loved to do. One day we had a physical education class at school. We did the long jump and handstands, but it was when I had to do a forward roll that disaster struck. Somehow, I twisted my neck in an extremely painful way. I screamed loudly and the teachers were very concerned. An ambulance was called and I was taken to hospital. The doctors fitted me with a collar and I was told to do no exercise and stay away from school for eight weeks. At fist, I was very bored.Having to keep still all day was no fun.So I started to read.I looked at books on the shelf at home. I wasn't interested in love stories—I avoided those—but crime and adventure did appeal. From those eight weeks I developed a lifelong love of reading. When my collar was removed,the doctors told me not to exercise for another four weeks. Instead of being disappointed, I was happy to devote more time to my new love—reading.
