Malligavad has successfully restred many lakes, cvering a ttal surface area f 800 acres. These lakes nw hld 106 millin gallns f water, and the grundwater level in thse regins has increased by eight feet.
It was in 2017, and he was ut fr a walk with clleagues when he fell int a smelly, dirty lake. Then the very next day, he asked his cmpany if they wuld fund the restratin f the 36-ac re lake.

Since this first win, Malligavad has nt stpped. He has created a nn-prfit rganizatin called The lake Revivers Cllective. “All I have is a sense f urgency that if we dn't repair the damage we've already caused,” he said, “it's ging t end badly fr all f us.

Scientists at Nrthwestern University are ding a dream jb— they cached peple in a lucid dream (a state where peple are aware that they are currently dreaming) and then questined peple wh were deep in dream-filled rapid eye mvement (REM) sleep. The crazy part? Thse dreamers were actually answering basic questins via eye mvements.
In this study, the researchers had subjects mve their eyes back and frth t cunt ut numbers, fr example, eight minus six. The subjects mved their eyes back and frth twice, accrding t the instructins the scientists gave them while they were awake.
The study just invlved six peple ut f 36 wh were able t bth have lucid dreams and register crrect answers t questins frm inside. But what if these six subjects are exceptinal and the findings dn't reflect a larger ppulatin?
If the subjects in the study were nt truly in REM sleep, it wuld decrease the reliability f the findings. Besides, anther prblem is that REM sleep must be stabilized because even the eye mvements themselves can wake peple up smetimes. T vercme these tw ptential prblems, the scientists used their plysmngraphy(多导睡眠图) set-up which helped them get an all-sided assessment f varius physilgical parameters(生理参数) during sleep.
“Sleep has classically been defined as unrespnsiveness t external envirnmental inputs ——and that feature is still typically part f the definitin tday,” explains Benjamin Baird, a sleep researcher. “This wrk pushes us t rethink abut sme f thse fundamental definitins abut the nature f sleep itself, and what's pssible in sleep.”
The idea f learning during sleep has lng been unrealistic. But the research indicates that peple might really be able t study while asleep in a way that culd help their waking life, like memrizing facts r visualizing high perfrmance sprts r music. “In additin, dreaming culd als be used t slve prblems and prmte creativity,” the researchers cnclude. “The next mnsht ideas culd be prduced with a methd that can cmbine the creative advantages f dreaming with the lgical advantages f waking.”
28. What des the surprising phenmenn in Paragraph 1 refer t?
A. Peple can remember their dreams very vividly.
B. Peple can predict future events in their dreams.
C. Peple are sensitive t sme sunds even in dreams.
D. Peple can respnd t the utside wrld while dreaming.
29. What rle did the scientists' plysmngraphy set-up play?
A. T analyze the subjects' dream cntent.
B. T help the subjects stabilize their dreams.
C. T cntrl the duratin f the subjects' sleep.
D. T measure and cnfirm the subjects' sleep state.
30. What des Benjamin Baird think f the new research?
A. It challenges traditinal understandings f sleep.
B. It cnfirms the necessity f studying human sleep.
C. It prves the impact f envirnment n sleep quality.
D. It shws the weakness f current sleep mnitring methds.
31. What des the last paragraph mainly discuss?
A. A further explanatin f the research methds.
B. Ptential applicatins f the research findings.
C. A reasnable dubt abut the research prcess.
D. Supprting evidence fr the research results.

On the crwded supermarket shelves, fd prducts try t attract attentin, using packaging and labels t clinch the deal. Arund 72% f American cnsumers say that prduct packaging influences their purchase decisins. Fd cmpanies are aware f this and understand that it applies t packaging design as well as the message cnveyed thrugh labels.
Luis Bisctti, the Natinal Leader fr Fd Beverage Services Grup, writes that when the Fd and Drug Administratin (FDA) update d its plicy n the nutritin facts label fr packaged fds in 2020, fd and drink cmpanies fund they culd use the labels n their packaging t prvide nutritinal and ther data t drive increase in sales. The infrmatin n the FDA labels and what they packed nt their labels and packaging greatly increased sales. Many cnsumers surveyed were mre likely t buy prducts with “natural” labels.
A new reprt takes a lk at the ppularity f the “natural” claim n fd packaging and it's eye-pening. “Fd suppliers can use the label that claims the fd is ‘natural’ at a relatively lw cst because regulatry(监管的) agencies treat the claim as meaning nthing artificial was added and that the prduct was hardly prcessed,” the authrs explain.
While that is certainly valuable infrmatin t knw, the prblem is in cnsumers' understanding f what “natural” means. Studies shw that peple think a prduct labeled as “natural” delivers benefits far beynd what it actually des, with mst cnsumers mistakenly linking health and envirnmental care qualities t fd with “natural” labels. In a 2022 survey, 86% f peple reprted that they purchased prducts with “natural” labels because they believed the labels indicated better-than-standard animal welfare and higher envirnmental care prductin practices.
That might simply seem discuraging as fd prducers are taking advantage f cnsumers' inncence t increase sales. But the mre serius prblem is hw this harms fd prducers wh are actually meeting the standards fr stricter labeling. These prducers are ding gd but ending up at a cmpetitive disadvantage if cnsumers cnsider fds labeled “natural” as alike.
As a cnsequence, any health and envirnmental care benefits that might have been realized frm cnsumers chsing prducts that matched their preferences culd be lst.
32. What des the underlined wrd “clinch” in Paragraph 1 prbably mean?
A. Secure. B. Standardize. C. Clse. D. Cut.
33. What was the cnsequence f the FDA's 2020 plicy n packaged fds?
A. It helped cnsumers make careful chices.
B. It led t a sharp price rise in packaged fds.
C. Cmpanies fund new chances t increase sales.
D. Cmpanies were frced t make mre healthy prducts.
34. Why des the fd with the “natural” label gain favr with cnsumers?
A. It has a better taste. B. It is at a lwer price.
C. It cmes in a great many varieties. D. It is thught t be healthy and green.
35. What's the text mainly abut?
A. Label design is imprtant fr fd cmpanies.
B. The message n fd labels may be misleading.
C. Custmers shuld check the label befre purchasing.
D. “Natural” labels shuld be added t fd packaging.

When yu breathe, yu take in xygen int yur bld. 36 Then the xygen fuels chemical reactins that give yur muscles energy. Yu breathe mre quickly and deeply while exercising because yur muscles need mre energy t wrk harder.
VO₂ max is the maximum vlume(V) f xygen (O) yur bdy can prcess t prduce energy. It measures hw much xygen yu breathe in while exercising as hard as yu can. It's a cmmn indicatr t understand yur fitness level. The mre xygen yu can breathe in, the mre energy yur bdy can use. 37
T measure yur VO₂ max, yu'll likely need t visit a lab r a testing center. Yu'll put a mask ver yur face. 38 While wearing it yu'll perfrm certain exercise as intensely as pssible. If yu can't get t a lab r a testing center, yu can estimate yur VO₂ max thrugh sme digital watches.
When measuring yur VO₂ max, yu can measure yur “abslute VO₂ max”, which is the ttal vlume f xygen cnsumed per minute. Yu can als measure “relative VO₂ max”, the vlume f xygen cnsumed per kilgram f bdy weight and per minute. Bth prvide valuable infrmatin. 39 That's because it takes accunt f a persn's bdy weight.
40 Yur VO₂ max can increase thrugh high-intensity interval(间隔) training. Yu perfrm an exercise as hard as yu can fr a shrt amunt f time, rest fr anther shrt perid, and then repeat fr multiple runds f different exercises. Yu can als turn t lw-intensity training. Yu perfrm a less intense exercise with fewer r n rest times during the sessin.
A. Yur heart pumps the bld int yur muscles.
B. It's t catch the amunt f xygen in yur breath.
C. If yur VO₂ max is lw, hw can yu imprve it?
D. Higher VO₂ max usually means better physical fitness.
E. What types f training especially require high VO₂ max?
F. The mask keeps substances affecting the intensity f xygen ut.
G. Hwever, the latter represents a mre accurate picture f yur physical state.

W: Gd mrning, everyne! Tday, I want t talk abut a Chinese legend in the field f sprts —Lang Ping.
Brn in Tianjin in 1960, Lang Ping shwed a gift fr sprts at 6. After seven-year practice, Lang Ping jined a vlleyball class t get regular training. At the age f 16, she was selected fr the Beijing vlleyball team. Tw years later, she was selected t jin the natinal training team. As a player, Lang Ping brught nt nly an hnr but als glry t China. In 1981, she wn the first gld me dal f the 3rd Wrld Cup with the China wmen's natinal vlleyball team. In 1982, she wn the 9th Wrld Wmen's Vlleyball Champinship with the Chinese natinal team. In 1984, she wn the gld medal with the Chinese natinal team at the Ls Angeles Olympic Games. As a cach, she led the Chinese natinal team t medals at wrld champinships as well as the Olympic Games. Rarely has a sprts team in China gtten praise and admiratin as much as the China wmen's natinal vlleyball team. As a sprts lver, I want t fllw in her ftsteps and becme a prfessinal vlleyball player. I'll wrk hard t make my dream cme true.
That's all. Thanks fr yur listening
