Millions of travelers daily have the opportunity to get refreshed in the following airport terminals（航站楼）.

Singapore Changi Airport（SIN）

Commonly referred to as a destination in itself, it's no surprise that 65 million people pass through Singapore Changi Airport annually. At night, the 130-foot-tall Rain Vortex, the world's largest indoor waterfall, comes alive with an eye-catching light show that lasts around five minutes. With one-of-a-kind attractions, its very own hotels and more than 280 places to shop and dine, it is popular among passengers flying through Singapore.

Marrakech Menara Airport（RAK）

A variety of sculptures and paintings support a permanent art collection spread throughout every terminal. Along the walkway between the Jeppesen Terminal and Concourse A, a piece of soft music plays as passengers make their way to catch a flight.

Istanbul Airport（IST）

It is recognized as the largest airport in the world and is anticipating even more growth in the next 10 years to fulfill the goal of handling a jaw-dropping 200 million passengers annually.

Many conveniences are taken for granted today, some widespread, hard to imagine without. The dishwasher is a home revolution appliance that freed a time-consuming task. It wasn't popular until the 70s but has been around for over 100 years. The first dishwasher was invented by Joel Houghton in 1850, made of wood, slow and forgotten. In 1865, L. A. Alexander patented a hand-cranked system, more useful but still no profitability.

It was not until 1886 that the first commercially successful dishwasher was invented. This version was designed by an American woman named Josephine Cochrane after the death of her husband, which left her with no source of income and a significant amount of debt. Her machine included wire compartments（隔间）that were designed to fit plates, cups, and saucers, and these racks（置物架）were fitted inside a wheel that was placed inside a copper boiler. Rather than rely on a hand crank, Cochrane's version used a motor to turn the wheel. Meanwhile, hot soapy water was sprayed up from the boiler, which subsequently ran down the dishes.

Cochrane made the design herself and then received help from mechanic George Butters to produce the model machine. After she received her patent, she founded Garis-Cochrane Manufacturing Company to start creating her machines. However, her road to success was not a smooth one. Due to the labor and materials involved with making these early dishwashers, they were ultimately too pricey for average households.

Cochrane finally found a platform for her invention when she displayed her dishwasher at the World's Columbian Exposition in 1893. There, she found interested buyers in the form of restaurants and hotels. These establishments could afford the cost of her products and were looking for ways to relieve the load of labor.

Throughout her later years, Cochrane continued to grow her business. She died in 1913, and several years later, in 1926, her company was acquired by KitchenAid, which is now part of the Whirlpool Corporation.

24. What caused early dishwashers not to be accepted?

A. Price.          B. Material.          C. Efficiency.          D. Appearance.

25. What can we learn about Cochrane's dishwasher?

A. It was powered by hand.                  B. It appealed to housewives.

C. It held the dishes inside the boiler.          D. It was designed with the help of George Butters.

26. How did Cochrane open up her market?

A. By Targeting potential clients.

B. By improving her design of the dishwasher.

C. By creating a platform to show the dishwasher.

D. By cooperating with the World's Columbian Exposition.

27. What is the text mainly about?

A. The development of the dishwasher.

B. The woman who invented the dishwasher.

C. The factors contributing to Cochrane's success.

D. The invention of the first commercially successful dishwasher.

Children's minds often drift away to a peaceful place during playtime（or whenever they want!）. However, a recent study published in the journal Emotion found that daydreaming is actually more difficult for adults; we often lose this imaginative practice as we age. To actually daydream, our brains have to create positive thoughts— which can be a challenge.

Erin Westgate, Ph. D., a University of Florida psychology professor and her team noted that since daydreaming is associated with our emotions, people who do so can better tolerate pain and boost their overall wellness. They rounded up a group of volunteers to test this theory. The researchers asked participants to think positive, meaningful thoughts. While the team supposed that this would help volunteers daydream, the participants in the study didn't like the process and wanted a guided experience, instead. "It was heavy stuff. It didn't seem to occur to them that they could use the time to enjoy their own thoughts," Westgate said.

According to the study's results, volunteers thought about things that actually didn't have strong ties to their memories or emotions, like ice cream. Participants noted a 50-percent boost to their creative thinking when study authors gave them topics to choose from, like future goals, anticipated events, and favorite memories. Ultimately, thinking positively through daydreaming has incredible mental benefits. "It's something that sets us apart. It defines our humanity. It allows us to imagine new realities, however, that kind of thinking requires practice," noted Westgate.

To accomplish this on your own, try to have enjoyable thoughts. "This is something all of us can do once you have the concept. But keep in mind this is hard for everybody. There's no good evidence that some types of people are simply better thinkers. The encouraging part is we can all get better." Lastly, daydreaming at the right times, like during day-to-day tasks, brushing your teeth, or bathing, will make the process smoother. "The next time you're walking, instead of pulling out your phone, try it," said Westgate. "As you build your ability to daydream, you'll have a source of enjoyable thoughts at your disposal during stressful times."

28. What do we know about daydreaming?

A. It can make people younger.          B. Children are better at it.

C. It kills adults' imagination.            D. A daydreamer is pain free.

29. What's the problem for adults to daydream according to the study?

A. They lack guidance.                         B. They can't concentrate.

C. They struggle with positive thinking.            D. They think it a waste of time.

30. What might be the result of daydreaming under guidance?

A. More creative.          B. More emotional.          C. More confident.          D. More generous.

31. What's the author's purpose in writing the text?

A. To show the benefits of daydreaming.            B. To erase the doubts about daydreaming.

C. To teach people to reclaim daydreaming.          D. To compare adults with children in daydreaming.

D

Some 72% of American consumers say that product packaging influences their purchase decisions—a statistic not lost on food producers. This applies to not just the appearance design of packaging but what the labels say as well.

Louis Biscotti, the National Leader for Food & Beverage（饮料）Services Group, says that when the FDA（Food and Drug Administration）updated its nutrition facts label for packaged foods in 2020, companies found new opportunities to increase sales. "The information on the FDA label and what you pack onto your label and packaging can be important factors in boosting sales." He adds that 30% of U. S. consumers surveyed are more likely to buy products with sustainable certificates and that "clean label" characteristics can "win over consumers."

A new report from the USDA（United States Department of Agriculture）Economic Research Service takes a look at the popularity of the "natural" claim on food packaging—and it's eye-opening. Study after study on the topic reveals that people think a product labeled as "natural” delivers benefits far beyond what it does, with most consumers mistakenly assigning health and environmental stewardship（管理）attributes to natural-labeled food.

At first, this might simply seem frustrating—that food producers capitalize on consumer simplicity to boost prices. And that consumers aren't getting what they think they're getting. But the more serious problem is how this harms food producers who are actually meeting the standards for more strict labels that are actually doing good, like ones around organic practices or animal welfare. Farmers and producers doing the work end up at a competitive disadvantage in the marketplace if consumers treat foods labeled natural as alike.

"The economic problem raised by natural labels is that consumers could be paying extra for product attributes they are not receiving while producers of products with those attributes lose sales," says Louis Biscotti. "As a consequence, any health and environmental stewardship benefits that might have been realized from consumers choosing products that matched their preferences could be lost."

32. What is paragraph 2 mainly about?

A. The label's influence on marketing.          B. The FDA study on nutrition facts.

C. The market theory of Louis Biscotti.          D. The basic data of the food producers.

33. What do the underlined words "capitalize on" mean in paragraph 4?

A. Turn a deaf ear to.          B. Make use of.

C. Meet the needs of.          D. Break away from.

34. What is the attitude of Louis Biscotti toward natural labels?

A. Critical.          B. Favorable.          C. Tolerant.         D. Unclear.

35. Which of the following is the best title for the text?

A. The Marketing Strategy of Packaging

B. The Function of Food Packaging and Labels

C. The Misleading Nature of ' Natural' Labels on Food

D. The Consumers' Purchasing Preference and Guideline

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。

Napping（小睡）at midday keeps afternoon sleepiness away.   36   Shortly after lunch, silence fills the whole office building, for the employees are now taking a nap break. An unspoken agreement is shared that each deserves a personal napping space without disturbance.

   37   Liu Zongyuan, a famous poet in the Tang Dynasty, once impressed us by a vivid description of a joyful and leisurely nap time. Napping at noon might date from the late Eastern Han Dynasty. According to the story "San Gu Mao Lu", Zhuge Kongming was in a sound nap when Liu Bei came visiting him for the third time.

Some researchers interpret the Chinese napping habit in the light of eating habits. Chinese people in the north eat wheaten food primarily and those in the south rely on rice. Biology tells us that wheaten food and rice contain a lot of glucose（葡萄糖）. Normally we Chinese get on a full stomach after lunch, so the glucose-rich Chinese diet raises the level of blood glucose.   38   

These explanations are seemingly reasonable.   39   Even days of conversation to Western diet, instead of wheaten food or rice, cannot ease my post-lunch laziness, hence a nap at a quiet place is desperate.

Noon nap occurs everywhere: customers napping on a sofa or Simmons, park-goers on a bench or on the lawn, are frequently noticed on newspapers and the Internet.   40   Those who nap in public places embarrass passers-by, which is not socially tolerable. On the contrary, a self-disciplined person preferring to nap in a private space is regarded as a napper with decency.

A. It leads to sleepiness.

B. They, however, do not work on me.

C. It casts its spell on summer days particularly.

D. Noon-time napping is a kind of self-protection.

E. Napping is also a cultural behavior with a long history.

F. Be that as it may, your napping places make a difference.

G. Otherwise, only a lie-in in the morning could help me get enough energy for the whole afternoon.

By the time we finished, we had   52   countless mosquitoes, suffered foot pain and had terrible sleep. But we were right to be   53   about our kids' abilities.

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。

It had been only two weeks since my family moved to the new house near the woods during my senior 2 holiday. Yesterday I heard a new noise in the woods, not drowned out by bird calls. My first thought, a hopeful one, was a deer. What if I had a deer family living in the woods behind my house? A peaceful animal to symbolize the gentleness of our new life? Or could it be something dangerous, even terrifying? A dangerous animal, a wild man? But no. This was our new home. Our new life. There would be no monsters（怪物）.

It could be a groundskeeper. Who was I kidding with monsters? We moved to rural. This wasn't an absolute wilderness. There were trails in these woods, maintained by the Homeowners' Association. So, what was it in the woods?

I made a plan. I put on long pants and boots and announced that I would walk into the woods and found the trail. I would look for signs of life—animal droppings, fur, satanic（邪恶的）symbols. My sister, Roger, wanted in. My brother, Ben, was busy showing all his toys to our grandfather, who came to visit us.

Roger and I went to the edge of the property line and kept going. Birds got quiet, sensing strangers. We walked on, not paying particularly good attention to landmarks. Without much trouble, we found the trail and a banyan tree with multiple trunks shooting out from the ground. Roger immediately climbed it and declared, "This is the fairy tree!" She threw her arms in the air, and asked me to take a picture with my smartphone. She was in boots and a dress and looked perfect among the trees.

Walking deeper into the woods, we found a clearing with some downed trees and declared it the "play area." She climbed the fallen tree trunks and jumped off them, sent up a puff of dust. We continued our adventure until it was getting dark, but found nothing. We decided to go back.
