Access t fresh fd is an issue fr many cmmunities thrughut the United States. Accrding t the Department f Agriculture, nearly 10% f the U. S. ppulatin live in lw-incme areas mre than a mile frm a supermarket. Fr residents wh lack transprtatin, buying fresh fd is even mre difficult.
Discvering this prblem inspired smething inside Emmns, wh quit her jb t devte herself t a mre meaningful thing. She said, “I decided t plant vegetables in my whle backyard, and it just kind f snwballed frm there.” Tday, Emmns has 200 vlunteers helping her tend 9 acres f vegetables n three sites. Since 2008, she says, her nnprfit rganizatin, Sw Much Gd, has grwn mre than 26, 000 punds f fresh prduce fr underserved cmmunities in Charltte.
Custmers greatly appreciate all that Emmns and her grup are ding. She tries t make her prduce as affrdable as pssible. Since Blin discvered Emmns' prduce stand this summer, she has visited it regularly. “I really appreciate all the beautiful and fresh vegetables,” said Blin, 38. “It's making me and my family healthier.” Keeping it ging is a labr f lve fr Emmns, wh spent years ding it fr free. Since last week, she has taken a small salary(薪水).
Emmns wuld lve t expand her rganizatin acrss the cuntry, changing fd deserts wherever they exist. Fr nw, she's devted t helping Charltte residents. “When I see peple cming t the farm stand, I feel encuraged,” she said. “I feel like I am giving them a gift—a healthier, lnger and better life.”

When making decisins, mst peple view cst as an imprtant cnsideratin. While price is undubtedly imprtant, what abut sme hidden csts that als cme int play? Fr example, what are the lng—term effects f yur decisin? Have yu cnsidered hw yur decisin impacts yur relatinships? Simply put, hidden csts may be invisible t the naked eye, but they're very visible(可见的) t yur wallet. Ignring these factrs can cst yu a lt.
Cnsider a scene where a manager cuts csts by asking sme wrkers t leave. While this mve reduces salary expenses, hw will it impact the mrale(士气) and lyalty f the remaining emplyees? Similarly, imagine smebdy spending hurs surfing the web, lst in searching fr cheaper things. The questin is whether the savings equal the spent time. If cst is yur nly cnsideratin, yu'll pay the price. Price Isn't the Only Cst!
Furthermre, even if cst is the nly factr in yur decisin—making, all f the “true csts” shuld be cnsidered. Fr example, if yu're thinking abut buying new technlgy the equipment cst is nly part f the price. Peple will need training, the sftware may need custmizatin, and yu'll prbably lse prductivity until peple get up t speed. Thse are real csts t.
In additin, even when price is the main cnsideratin, it's imprtant t tell the difference between price and value. Fr example, when yu're investing in a high—quality prduct frm a famus rganizatin, cmpare maintenance(保养) and repair csts with its cmpetitrs, assess the prduct life span, and hear what existing custmers have t say. As the ld saying ges, “Yu get what yu pay fr.”
Always keep in mind that every time yu say “yes” t ne thing, yu're certainly saying “n” t anther. S, in decisin—making, always cnsider invisible csts. This ensures yu're aiming fr the best slutin rather than a gd ne. After all, chices are easy. The tugh part is living with them.
28. What des the underlined phrase “cme int play” in paragraph I mean?
A. Cme int sight. B. Play a part. C. Cme int use. D. Play arund.
29. What may be the hidden cst f firing wrkers?
A. Reducing salary expenses. B. Cutting csts f the cmpany.
C. Ding wnders fr the wrkers' mrale. D. Discuraging the remaining wrkers.
30. Hw is the passage mainly develped?
A. By giving examples. B. By listing figures.
C. By using space rder. D. By explaining cncepts.
31. What can we learn frm this passage?
A. Yu get what yu pay fr. B. Price is the main cnsideratin.
C. Cnsidering the best slutin is easy. D. Be thughtful when making decisins.
D
As cities balln with grwth, visits t zs prvide an increasingly imprtant pprtunity fr cntact with ther species. Thugh zs were riginally created t help peple learn abut animals that they had never seen, zs have a serius rle as cnservatin(保护)rganizatins. Many zs cnsider cnservatin educatin t be imprtant, and hpe t encurage psitive attitudes tward animal cnservatin amng their visitrs.
Traditinally, zs educate visitrs by displaying infrmatin. Zs ften attach bring signs t exhibits, describing an animal's habitat and lifestyle in the wild as well as whether r nt the species is endangered. But recently, psychlgical research has shwn that vivid emtinal experiences nt nly attract mre attentin, they are als better remembered. The scary r funny animal exhibits at the z encurage peple t pay mre attentin t infrmatin abut the animals than they wuld pay t a written descriptin.
The majrity f z visitrs cme with family members r n schl field trips. Scial interactins are thus a key part f the z visit. And when peple are lking at the animals, there seems t be a tendency t tell what they see t thers. In my research at zs, I fund that almst nine ut f ten visitrs wuld share their bservatins f an animal by pinting it ut t their cmpanins, r simply by saying “lk!”. Scial interactins like these are pprtunities t create and cmmunicate shared values. Parents wh stand in frnt f an animal exhibit and say “The mmmy is lking after her baby.” r even “Lk at that!” is giving their children a reasn t care abut the animal.
Zs can create a culture f cnservatin. The best exhibits shuld be the nes that place animals in their natural habitats, where peple care fr their needs. In this way zs can help t prevent the disappearance f wild animals frm ur sight and frm ur minds.
32. What was the riginal purpse f building the z?
A. T feed the animals. B. T meet peple's curisity.
C. T bring entertainment t kids. D. T save endangered animals.
33. What is the authr's attitude twards the z's traditinal way f educatin?
A. Uninterested. B. Psitive. C. Negative. D. Unclear.
34. What d peple tend t d when appreciating animals?
A. They shut t animals. B. They ffer their fd.
C. They take phts f animals. D. They share what they see.
35. Which f the fllwing is the best title f the passage?
A. The Z Attracts Peple t Visit Animals. B. Cmmunicate with Nature in the Z.
C. The Z Offers Prtectin t Animals. D. Learn t Care Abut Animals in the Z.
