I fund him in the yard ne sunny day decades ag. His shining green bdy caught my eyes as it slwly crawled against the dark brwn trunk f the nly tree inside the fence line.
I mved clser t him and was amazed by the peacefulness f his presence. I had never seen a caterpillar（毛毛虫） quite like him. He was a giant, cmpared t any clse r distant relative f his. The tuch f his skin made me think f the rubber.
My heart brimmed with affectin fr this unique being. Its presence brught jy t me, a child withut parents arund, lnely. I gently held him in my hand and transprted him t my rm. I fashined a hme fr him frm scraps f plastic canvas（网布）. It was decrated with grass, twigs, and leaves. I eagerly intrduced him t a friend, Nancy. She was equally delighted by him. We created dialgues in which we explred what he must have thught f us. We invented stries abut where he had cme frm and where he was ging. We imagined what kind f butterfly he wuld becme.
As days passed, my jy turned. I hadn’t seen him eat, and he mved less and less. I had begun t realize that I had imprisned him. Causing further harm t him was nt an ptin since he had dne nthing wrng.
I felt a deep sadness in my heart as I decided t release him. I placed him back in the exact lcatin where I had fund him. I hped he wuld cntinue his life withut any scars frm the plastic prisn I put him in.
24．What a we knw abut the caterpillar?

C．His skin feels warm.D．He mves quickly n the tree.
25．What did the authr and her friend d with the caterpillar?

26．Why did the authr’s jy turn?
A．Because the authr gt tired f the caterpillar.B．Because the caterpillar ate less and less.
C．Because the authr was harmed by the caterpillar.D．Because the caterpillar was in pr cnditin.

Many peple fear that rbts will destry jbs. A paper in 2013 by ecnmists at Oxfrd University was widely misinterpreted as meaning that 47% f American jbs were at risk f being autmated.
The cncern abut mass unemplyment is verblwn. Actually, rbts will be ultimately beneficial fr labur markets. A Yale University study that lked at Japanese manufacturing between 1978 and 2017 fund that an increase f ne rbt unit pe r 1,000 wrkers bsted a cmpany’s emplyment by 2.2%. Research frm the Bank f Krea fund that rbtisatin mved jbs away frm manufacturing int ther sectrs, but that there was n decrease in verall vacancies. Anther study, by researchers at the Massachusetts Institute f Technlgy, lked at Finnish firms and cncluded that their use f advanced technlgies led t increases in hiring.
Fr all that, the march f the rbts will bring big changes t wrkplaces. The skills and firms that are rewarded will shift, t. One suppsed example f “bad autmatin” is self-service checkuts in supermarkets, because they replace human wrkers. Rbts culd perfrm wrk that is unpleasant, such as butchering. Checkut staff wh retrain t help custmers pick items frm aisles may well find that dealing with peple in need is mre rewarding than spending all day swiping barcdes in frnt f lasers.
Inevitably, sme peple will be n the lsing end f change even as the rbts make sciety as a whle better ff. One lessn frm the freewheeling glbalisatin f the 1990s and 2000s is that the grwth in trade that was verwhelmingly beneficial triggered a plitical backlash（反对）, because the lsers felt left behind. That is ne mre reasn why firms and gvernments wuld d well t recgnize the value f retraining and lifelng learning. As jbs change, wrkers shuld be helped t acquire new skills.
28．Why des the authr mentin “Japanese manufacturing” in paragraph 2?
A．T explain a rule.B．T shw a trend.
C．T supprt an idea.D．T make a predictin.
29．Hw might checkut staff feel abut assisting custmers directly?
A．Bred.B．Refreshed.C．Pleased.D．Uncmfrtable.
30．What can we infer frm the last paragraph?
A．Rbts may cause mass unemplyment.
B．Peple shuld be ready t learn and adapt.
C．Everyne will benefit equally frm rbts.
D．Wrkers shuld be encuraged t find new emplyment.
31．What may be the best title fr the text?
A．Change the Cntrl f RbtsB．Mre Rbts
C．Welcme the Rise f RbtsD．Better Rbts
D
T accept that the wrld’s average temperature might rise by mre than 1.5℃, declared the freign minister f the Marshall Islands in 2015, wuld be t sign the “death warrant” f small, lw-lying cuntries such as his. In a climate cnference in Paris, attendees agreed t limit glbal warming t abut 1.5℃ in the Paris Agreement.
Hwever, the same cuntries that signed the Paris Agreement have nt cut their emissins enugh t meet its targets. The cnsequences are catastrphic. Climate-related disasters are prliferating, frm Pakistan, much f which was flded by this summer’s unusually intense seasn wind, t Flrida, which in September endured its deadliest hurricane since 1935.
The respnse t all this shuld be a dse f realism. Many activists are reluctant t admit that 1.5℃is a lst cause. They need t be mre practical and face up t sme hard truths.
First, cutting emissins will require much mre mney. Rughly speaking, glbal investment in clean energy needs t triple frm tday’s $1bn a year, and be cncentrated in develping cuntries. S their gvernments will have t wrk with the rich wrld t mbilize private investment, which will invlve big imprvements t the investment climate and an acceptance that they will have t cede（割让） sme cntrl ver energy plicy. Anther truth is that fssil fuels will nt be abandned vernight, especially in sme prer cuntries, precisely because they cannt cme up with any immediate alternative.
The third truth is that greater effrts must be made t adapt t climate change. Adaptatin has always been the neglected step-child f climate plicy, mistrusted by activists as a distractin frm cutting emissins r, wrse, an excuse nt t make any cuts. But n matter what, the wrld nw faces mre flds, drughts, strms and wildfires. Fr develping cuntries especially, but als fr rich nes, preparing fr these disasters is a matter f life and death.
32．What is the purpse f the cnference in Paris?.
A．T revise the Paris Agreement.B．T assist the lw-lying cuntries.
C．T analyse the average temperature.D．T apprve the new climate change plicy.
33．What des the underlined wrd “prliferating” prbably mean in the secnd paragraph?
A．Increasing.B．Disappearing.C．Varying.D．Respnding.
34．What is required t cut emissins in develping cuntries accrding t Paragraph 4?
A．Pwer ver energy plicy.B．Investment and cperatin.
C．An instant ban n fssil fuels.D．Less invlvement frm develping cuntries.
35．What d we knw abut adaptatin t climate change?
A．It is a cst-cutting measure.B．It has failed t be nticed.
C．It has been widely accepted.D．It is a distractin fr emissin cut.
