‘Three’ is the minimum number (23)_____a tw-dimensinal shape can be defined. Fr example, three sticks can create a triangle, a stable structure. Many cmmn phrases are in three wrds, such as "ready, set, g". Being the first things kids may learn, sme nursery rhymes have a wrd (24)________(repeat)three times, such as "rw, rw, rw yur bat".

Farm f the Future in the Sky
Five streys ff the grund at Clrad State University, a highly unlikely garden grws under a lng rw f rftp slar panels. It's late Nvember at 9 am, when the temperature is-2℃ and the wind is cutting. Nt lng befre my arrival, researchers had pulled the last __31__crps ut f the sil under the panels. In their place, cl-seasn fds like leafy greens still grw, __32_frm the intense sunlight up there.
This is n rdinary green rf, but an expansive and___33____utdr labratry. The idea behind it is explained by Jennifer Busselt, the directr f the rftp farm. Slar panels tend t get t ht n cnventinal rf tps, and that heat reduces their efficiency while plants help cl them ff. "If yu have plants under there, "Busselt said, "they create ideal___34____fr slar panels t perate. Als, the shade f the panels encurages the grwth f plants. A win-win slutin. "
Therefre, the verall gal f the rftp farm is t grw mre fd fr ___35___urban ppulatins while generating clean energy and making buildings mre energy efficient. Withut the sun beating dwn__36_n a bare rf, green rfs bst a building's energy efficiency by abut10 percent. That is, yu dn't need t run as much air-cnditining t__37___cl the place during a heat wave.

The expenses are substantially increased due t higher__40___csts and the difficulties f mving and installing all the sensrs and materials high in the air.
It is bviusly early days fr rftp farms, but sme effects were already evident. Instead f being big, dead spaces, rfs may act as bming ecsystems.
III. Reading Cmprehensin
Sectin A(15分)
Directins: Fr each blank in the fllwing passage there are fur wrds r phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the wrd r phrase that best fits the cntext.
“S …tell me abut yurself. ”
The tughest jb interview questin may seem like a sftball frm the interviewer's perspective: It seems___41____because it feels like a free pass: n request fr real-life examples, n technical challenge, nt even the feared "What's yur biggest fault?"Just…tell me anything.
Receiving such an pen invitatin invites mre ___42____than pprtunities, because yu're given n framewrk fr yur respnse —just a blank, clue-free paper. I ften see this__43situatin in my pint-making wrkshps: cmmunicating withut a pint.
What yur prspective emplyer mst needs frm yu is a pint ("T am an imprtant asset (资产)t the cmpany"), nt a___44___("All abut me"). But hw d yu get frm the interviewer's brad questin t a specific and___45___pint?
Start with realizing that yur interviewer already knws yur jb histry thanks t yur resume(简历). S yu shuld be mre than yur___46__. Remember that interviews are mre abut making strng ___47__than prving qualificatins. This is a tw-step prcess that will require sme hmewrk. First, identify what the rganizatin specifically needs frm this rle. Secnd, __48_yur respnse t psitin yurself as the best persn t fill that need.
Identifying the rganizatin's need means examining the jb descriptin like a treasure map. Phrases like “required, ”"must have, "and "highly desired"mean what they say, s___49__thse in yur planning. Items further dwn the list r labeled "preferred"may be less imprtant, even if yu meet thse standards. The__50___f a jb descriptin can be telling as well. Descriptins that sund persnal, r cme right ut and say "sense f humr preferred"indicate a wrkplace where peple like t have fun. __51_, a very frmal jb psting might indicate a cnservative wrkplace where peple are expected t be serius abut the wrk.
Pulling frm these sures, write dwn the three persnal qualities they're mst lking fr like“self-starter, ""team player, "r "interest in healthcare". Nw change the___52___slightly t "I'm aself-starter" r “At wrk, my apprach is . …. "Then pick a stry frm yur prfessinal life that53__yu filling that particular need f the jb. Feel free t add details, but dn't__54___the primary elements. Assume they can smell a lie frm a mile away, whether they can r can't.
In this way, yu shuld d mre than just widen eyes in the rm. Why?Because yu've matched wh yu are and yur persnal stry with the cmpany's brand and primary need. Yu didn't just tell them abut yu;yu pinted ut why yu___55___t them.

(A)
T us, the kitchen was a mysterius place. Our kitchen at hme was s simple: an ld Sparks ven, a refrigeratr, a sink, and a table. At the New Eastern, it was a busy factry. Almst an entire wall was
taken up by a line f huge black wks (锅). This was my father's stage. He strde (大步走)the length f the fur wks, each ne fired up by gas flames underneath. Beneath him, blcks f wd, raised ff the grund an inch r tw, served t give his legs and feet sme spring.
The sink was the size f a bathtub(浴);the refrigeratr had glass drs and stretched three times as wide as the ne at hme. Every appliance was bigger, and there were things we never saw anywhere else, like the big metal ven in which my father hung lng ples hlding large pieces f prk. We culd hear the fire raring frm the bttm f it. My dad wuld g abut his business, and then, always at exactly the right time, he'd wander ver, lift ff the tp, and take ut several ples f barbecued prk—bright red, with black at the tips. If I happened by at that magical mment, I'd stp. “Yeet-gw!”I'd say. And he'd skillfully chp ff a piece f the juicy, sweet meat. “One dllar!"he'd shut, and then hand it ver.
My father made the best fd in twn. There was nthing he wuldn't try. He was nce prud f a rck candy he invented and determined t sell at the frnt cunter f the New Eastern. We, f curse, served as his guinea pigs—we culdn't bring urselves t tell him the sad truth: The candy was s hard that it was uneatable. I rlled a piece arund my muth. “Tastes gd, Ba-Ba, ”I said. Then, when he lked away, I spat it ut.
Smetimes, he liked t invent stries t us. Watching my little sister Shirley biting n an apple, he'd lean ver. “Dn't eat the seed, "he said, "r an apple tree will grw inside yu. "“What?”
“Yes. Right inside yur stmach, an apple tree!”

New research cnfirms that human ftprints fund in New Mexic are prbably the ldest direct evidence f human presence in the Americas, a finding that upends what many scientists knew abut human habitatin and migratin(迁徙).
The ftprints were discvered at the edge f an ancient lakebed in White Sands natinal park. Accrding t the new paper published in the jurnal Science, they date back t between 21, 000 and 23, 000 years ag. Actually, the estimated age f the ftprints was first reprted in Science in 2021, but sme researchers raised cncerns abut the dates. Questins fcused n whether seeds f water plants used fr the riginal dating may have absrbed ancient carbn frm the lake—which culd, in thery, thrw ff radicarbn dating by thusands f years. But the new study presents tw additinal lines f evidence fr the lder date range. It uses tw entirely different materials fund at the site, ancient pllen(花粉)and stne grains.
The reprted age f the ftprints challenges the nce cnventinal wisdm that humans did nt reach the Americas until a few thusand years befre rising sea levels cvered the Bering land bridge between Russia and Alaska, perhaps abut 15, 000 years ag. “This is a subject that's always been cntrversial because it's s significant. It's abut hw we understand the last chapter f the pepling f the wrld, ”said Thmas Urban, an archaelgist (考古学家)at Cmell University, wh was invlved in the 2021 study but nt the new ne.
Thmas Staffrd, an independent archaelgical gelgist in New Mexic, wh was nt invlved in the study, said he“was a bit suspicius befre”but nw is cnvinced. The new study islated abut75, 000 grams f pure pllen frm the same stne layer that cntained the ftprints. "Dating pllen is labrius but wrthwhile, "said Kathleen Springer, a research gelgist at the US Gelgical Survey and a c-authr f the new paper.
Ancient ftprints f any kind can prvide archaelgists with a quick lk f a mment in time. While sme archelgical sites in the Americas pint t similar date ranges—including necklaces carved frm giant animal remains in Brazil—scientists still questin whether such bjects really indicate human presence. “White Sands is unique because there's n questin these ftprints were left by peple, "said Jennifer Raff, a scientist at the University f Kansas, wh was nt invlved in the study.
63. The underlined wrd"upends”(paragraph 1)is clsest in meaning t“_______".
A. cmprises B. cnnects C. challenges D. cmpares
64. Accrding t the passage, what is special abut the new research?
A. It shws the ftprints were made by the Russians.
B. It ffers mre cnvincing lines f evidence fr dating.
C. It cnfirms that the ancient humans enjyed living by the lake.
D. It reveals the ftprints are much yunger than previusly thught.
65. It can be inferred frm the last paragraph that_____________.
A. necklaces are valuable bjects fr archaelgists t date animals
B. human ftprints are ften sure signs f human presence
C. ancient bjects in Brazil are excluded frm the study
D. White Sands is ne imprtant archaelgical site
66. Which f the fllwing might be the best title f the passage?
A. Scientists Discvers New Species f Humans in Americas
B. Humans Reached Americas 15, 000 Years Earlier Than Believed
C. American Archaelgists Unearthed Valuable Manmade Objects

What t Knw If Buying a Flipped Huse
Huse flipping is hardly new. Fr smene wh is wrking in the real estate market, a flipped r recently renvated (翻新的)hme can be very appealing. But hw abut yu, the hme-hunter?_____67____
Yu certainly dn't need t avid flipped prperties. A flipped prperty des have sme strng selling pints. A lt f its features and fixtures have been replaced r imprved. Certainly, yu'll save n the time and truble f ding the renvatin yurself. But there are sme things t watch ut fr if yu're cnsidering buying ne.
____68____Fr example, Alice recently tured a flipped huse whse kitchen drawer was blcked by the refrigeratr and the dishwasher wasn't installed crrectly -things that wuld prevent peple frm being able t functin in there. Addressing issues like these can becme cstly, especially if yu haven't factred them int yur budget.
Dn't neglect yur right t a prfessinal inspectin. ____69_____S getting an expert t g take a thrugh lk at the prperty is crucial, t make sure everything is up t cde. It's ging t be really imprtant t d yur sewer(下水道)and separate rf inspectins. Flipped huses may seem up-t-date n the surface, but shiny new finishes can smetimes mask substandard wrk.
Finally, flipped prperties are rarely advertised as such. Therefre, it is crucial t wrk with aknwledgeable real estate agent. ____70____When he turs a huse that he suspects is being flipped, he'll check wh wned the hme previusly, and will reach ut t ther agents in his netwrk t see if anyne has experience buying frm them.

Dealing with One Missed Wrkut
It's a cmmn dilemma (图局)fr anyne n a training plan: Yu miss ne wrkut and becme awashed with guilt. T make up fr it, yu add thse extra miles t yur next wrkut. But accrding t the prfessinals, this isn't the right way t g abut it. "A single wrkut is nt ging t make r break a training plan. The key t training is cnsistency ver time, "says Jhn Raglin, PhD, prfessr in the Department f Kinesilgy at Indiana University Blmingtn.
When yu miss a wrkut, the temptatin is t think, "Oh, I've gt t d mre tmrrw". But when yu try t catch up n yur wrkuts, yu run a cuple f risks: "Certainly an injury, but als becming ver-tired, which culd ruin yur training after that, "says Raglin. This is a phenmenn called 'nn-functinal verreaching', "he says. Eventually, this culd lead t vertraining syndrme(综合症), which is characterized by a decrease in perfrmance later due t a lng-term increase in training lad withut adequate recvery.
S hw d yu mve frward if yu skipped a run r five?Well first, peple dwnlad generalized training plans withut understanding that they are meant t be adapted t life. There is a whle hst f life stressrs—jb, kids, friendships, travel—and exercise is just anther type f stress. Actually, when things get chatic in yur life, it may be necessary t just let g. Next, if yu missed a wrkut, yu have t ask yurself why: "Was it just because yur schedule gt ut f hand r because yu were feeling verly exhausted?"Understanding why yu missed the wrkut can ffer sme insights int hw t tailr yur prgram t suit yur lifestyle.
