Once I gt t sixth grade and switched t private schl, ur entire student bdy was assigned t either the Red r the White team. Thrughut the year, we cmpeted against each ther in varius games and exercises fr pints. I eventually became president f The Cmmittee f Games. I als played n the field hckey team and the basketball team. And at hme, playing tennis, skating, skiing and biking were simply nrmal things we did. During the break time, magazines were als quite ppular fr us teens. These regularly feature d articles n physical exercise. Smehw, my cllege rmmate and I tk up the habit f cmpleting Ryal Canadian Air Frce (RCAF) exercises every day, a practice that cntinued int my marriage, when we had n spare mney t use t jin a gym.
S, thugh it shcks sme f ur friends, that early fundatin (基础) cntinue in adulthd int a sprts and fitness fcus, cnsidered imprtant even n vacatin. I still lve reading and the arts, t. As far as I'm cncerned, life is the richest with my feet in bth wrlds.

A new bservatin in Sumatra caught seasned scientists by surprise. An rangutan (红毛猩猩) knwn as Rakus treated a fresh wund with a medicinal plant, making this the first time an animal has been seen applying a bilgically active substance (物质) fr. its health benefits. This leaves scientists wndering: Did humans invent medicine, r des it pre-date ur species?
These animals are knwn t be amng the mst intelligent nn-human primates (灵长类). They’ve been bserved using tls, cmmunicating vcally, and engaging in even mre cmplex behavirs like calculated reciprcity, which invlves aiding anther rangutan with the expectatin f being paid back. They can even use Skype with sme help frm humans.
Rughly 60,000-70,000 f these creatures remain in the wild, abut 15,000 f which live n the Indnesian island f Sumatra. That’s where the Suaq Prject, part f the Max Planck Institute fr Animal Behavir, bserves rangutans in their natural habitat.
The researchers nted in June that Rakus had a small wund n his face fllwing a fight with anther mature male rangutan. Several days later, Rakus did smething n ne had ever seen a primate d befre. He began carefully picking the leaves frm a climbing vine (藤蔓) knwn as akar kuning. Lcal human ppulatins have lng used these leaves fr pain relief and t treat cnditins like malaria. Orangutans dn’t usually eat these plants: indeed, Rakus didn’t eat them. He chewed (嚼碎) them and then applied the resulting paste t his facial wund.
This is the first time researchers have seen such behavir in 21 years at the Sumatran research statin. Wild rangutans are rarely injured, s this may be a rare but widespread behavir. Or perhaps Rakus is the nly ne that knws this trick. The researchers assumed that early humans may have learned abut certain treatment by bserving animals engaging in similar behavirs. And here we are, thusands f generatins later, still watching and wndering just hw smart they are. Increasingly, it lks like rangutans are ne cave painting away frm civilizatin.
28. Why des the authr mentin Skype in paragraph 2?
A. T supprt an idea.B. T draw a cnclusin.
C. T explain a prblem. D. T present a suggestin.
29. What is paragraph 4 mainly abut?
A. Hw Rakus gt injured. B. Hw Rakus treated his wund.
C. What Rakus ate in the wild. D. What Rakus explred in the frest.
30. What can be inferred abut the new bservatin?
A. It prves the medical value f a plant leaf.
B. It shws a widespread behavir amng rangutans.
C. It answers ne f scientists’ questins abut medicine.
D. It adds evidence t shw the intelligence f rangutans.
31. Which f the fllwing is a suitable title fr the text?
A. Nn-human Primates Seen Using Tls in the Wild
B. Orangutans Prved t Be the Mst Intelligent Primate
C. A Prject Observes Orangutans in Their Natural Habitat
D. An Orangutan Observed Applying Medicinal Plant t a Wund

Fr decades, scientists thught f the brain as the mst valuable an cnsequently mst clsely guarded part f the bdy. Lcked safely behind the bld brain barrier, it was bradly free f the harm f viruses and the battles started the immune system. Then, abut 20 years ag, sme researchers began t wnder is the brain really s separated (分离) frm the bdy? The answer, accrding t grwing bdy f evidence, is n.
The list f brain cnditins that have been linked with changes elsewhere in the bdy is lng and grwing. Changes in the make-up f the micrrganisms in the digestive system have been linked t disrders such as Parkinsn’s disease. There is als a thery that infectin during pregnancy (孕期) culd lead t brain disease sir babies.
The effect is tw-way. There is a lengthening list f symptms (症状) nt typically viewed as disrders f the nervus system, but the brain plays a large part in them. Fr example, the develpment f a fever is influenced by a ppulatin f nerve cells that cntrl bdy temperature and appetite. Evidence is munting that cancers use nerves t grw and spread.
The intercnnectin between the brain and bdy has prmising implicatins fr ur ability t bth understand and treat illnesses. If sme brain disrders start utside the brain, then perhaps treatments fr them culd als reach in frm utside. Treatments that take effect thrugh the digestive system, the heart r ther rgans, wuld be much easier and less risky than thse that must crss the bld-brain barrier.
It als wrks in the ppsite directin. Study shws mice have healthier hearts after receiving stimulatin (刺激) t a brain area invlved in psitive emtin and mtivatin. Activatin f the brain reward centre—called the ventral tegmental area (VTA)—seems t cause immune changes that cntribute t it. Wrking ut hw this happens culd help t destry cancers, enhance respnses t vaccines (疫苗) and even re-evaluate physical diseases that, fr centuries, have nt been cnsidered as being psychlgically driven.
32. What d the researchers fcus n abut the brain?
A. Its prtecting system. B. Its expsure t diseases.
C. Its cntrlling functin. D. Its cnnectin t the bdy.
33. Hw des the authr supprt his idea in paragraph 2?
A. By explaining a thery. B. By prviding examples.
C. By making cmparisns. D. By presenting cause and effect.
34. Which best describes treatments that d nt crss the bld-brain barrier?
A. Cheaper. B. Mre specific. C. Safer. D. Mre direct.
35. What des the study suggest in the last paragraph?
A. Brain health depends n immune changes.
B. Brain stimulatin leads t negative emtins.
C. The brain can help enhance psychlgical health.
D. The brain may be key t treating physical diseases.

Durian (榴莲) prices in China — the wrld’s tp market fr the spiky, pungent fruit typically regarded as an expensive item — have fallen by ver 30 percent this mnth, which delights durian lvers a lt and they even culdn’t wait t enjy ne. Hwever, many peple find it challenging and verwhelming when faced with a muntain f spiky durian stands when they are buying a satisfying durian. 36
Tap n it (nt with yur hand). If a durian is ripe, it shuld “sund like hitting a drum”, as the fruit is mre hllw with gap s f air inside the fruit. 37 The seeds are sure t have lsened up when we shake a ripen durian. A darker stem means that the durian has been harvested much earlier, s, bviusly, it isn’t suitable fr us t chse.
38 A perfectly elliptical durian is nt necessarily the mst delicius! If the durian has bulging (鼓起的) sides, it is ften an indicatin that the seeds are fleshy. If the sides are cncave, it is likely the chamber is empty. Odd-shaped durians als d nt mean that there is less meat. 39
It’s cmmnly acknwledged that larger and runder fruits will always be drawn attentin t, but as fr durians, bigger is nt necessarily better. 40 It’s wise f yu t avid a durian f huge size which seems delicius.
Yu wn’t miss a tasty durian fr yur careful chice.
A. Purchasing a durian, listen ut fr tapping sunds.
B. Next time yu buy a durian, d remember t chse a bigger ne.
C. In additin, ne must als learn t bserve the shape f the durian.
D. Here are a few practical tips t help yu becme a skilled durian picker.
E. Fllwing the tips belw, yu’ll find it nt difficult t break ff a durian.
F. The perfect weight f durian is 1.5 t 2kg, which prvides the best flavrs.
G. They are usually mre fragrant (芳香的) and creamier cmpared t perfectly runded durians.

Once I gt t sixth grade and switched t private schl, ur entire student bdy was assigned t either the Red r the White team. Thrughut the year, we cmpeted against each ther in varius games and exercises fr pints. I eventually became president f The Cmmittee f Games. I als played n the field hckey team and the basketball team. And at hme, playing tennis, skating, skiing and biking were simply nrmal things we did. During the break time, magazines were als quite ppular fr us teens. These regularly feature d articles n physical exercise. Smehw, my cllege rmmate and I tk up the habit f cmpleting Ryal Canadian Air Frce (RCAF) exercises every day, a practice that cntinued int my marriage, when we had n spare mney t use t jin a gym.

A new bservatin in Sumatra caught seasned scientists by surprise. An rangutan (红毛猩猩) knwn as Rakus treated a fresh wund with a medicinal plant, making this the first time an animal has been seen applying a bilgically active substance (物质) fr. its health benefits. This leaves scientists wndering: Did humans invent medicine, r des it pre-date ur species?
These animals are knwn t be amng the mst intelligent nn-human primates (灵长类). They’ve been bserved using tls, cmmunicating vcally, and engaging in even mre cmplex behavirs like calculated reciprcity, which invlves aiding anther rangutan with the expectatin f being paid back. They can even use Skype with sme help frm humans.
Rughly 60,000-70,000 f these creatures remain in the wild, abut 15,000 f which live n the Indnesian island f Sumatra. That’s where the Suaq Prject, part f the Max Planck Institute fr Animal Behavir, bserves rangutans in their natural habitat.
The researchers nted in June that Rakus had a small wund n his face fllwing a fight with anther mature male rangutan. Several days later, Rakus did smething n ne had ever seen a primate d befre. He began carefully picking the leaves frm a climbing vine (藤蔓) knwn as akar kuning. Lcal human ppulatins have lng used these leaves fr pain relief and t treat cnditins like malaria. Orangutans dn’t usually eat these plants: indeed, Rakus didn’t eat them. He chewed (嚼碎) them and then applied the resulting paste t his facial wund.
This is the first time researchers have seen such behavir in 21 years at the Sumatran research statin. Wild rangutans are rarely injured, s this may be a rare but widespread behavir. Or perhaps Rakus is the nly ne that knws this trick. The researchers assumed that early humans may have learned abut certain treatment by bserving animals engaging in similar behavirs. And here we are, thusands f generatins later, still watching and wndering just hw smart they are. Increasingly, it lks like rangutans are ne cave painting away frm civilizatin.
28. Why des the authr mentin Skype in paragraph 2?
A. T supprt an idea.B. T draw a cnclusin.
C. T explain a prblem. D. T present a suggestin.
29. What is paragraph 4 mainly abut?
A. Hw Rakus gt injured. B. Hw Rakus treated his wund.
C. What Rakus ate in the wild. D. What Rakus explred in the frest.
30. What can be inferred abut the new bservatin?
A. It prves the medical value f a plant leaf.
B. It shws a widespread behavir amng rangutans.
C. It answers ne f scientists’ questins abut medicine.
D. It adds evidence t shw the intelligence f rangutans.
31. Which f the fllwing is a suitable title fr the text?
A. Nn-human Primates Seen Using Tls in the Wild
B. Orangutans Prved t Be the Mst Intelligent Primate
C. A Prject Observes Orangutans in Their Natural Habitat
D. An Orangutan Observed Applying Medicinal Plant t a Wund

Fr decades, scientists thught f the brain as the mst valuable an cnsequently mst clsely guarded part f the bdy. Lcked safely behind the bld brain barrier, it was bradly free f the harm f viruses and the battles started the immune system. Then, abut 20 years ag, sme researchers began t wnder is the brain really s separated (分离) frm the bdy? The answer, accrding t grwing bdy f evidence, is n.
The list f brain cnditins that have been linked with changes elsewhere in the bdy is lng and grwing. Changes in the make-up f the micrrganisms in the digestive system have been linked t disrders such as Parkinsn’s disease. There is als a thery that infectin during pregnancy (孕期) culd lead t brain disease sir babies.
The effect is tw-way. There is a lengthening list f symptms (症状) nt typically viewed as disrders f the nervus system, but the brain plays a large part in them. Fr example, the develpment f a fever is influenced by a ppulatin f nerve cells that cntrl bdy temperature and appetite. Evidence is munting that cancers use nerves t grw and spread.
The intercnnectin between the brain and bdy has prmising implicatins fr ur ability t bth understand and treat illnesses. If sme brain disrders start utside the brain, then perhaps treatments fr them culd als reach in frm utside. Treatments that take effect thrugh the digestive system, the heart r ther rgans, wuld be much easier and less risky than thse that must crss the bld-brain barrier.
It als wrks in the ppsite directin. Study shws mice have healthier hearts after receiving stimulatin (刺激) t a brain area invlved in psitive emtin and mtivatin. Activatin f the brain reward centre—called the ventral tegmental area (VTA)—seems t cause immune changes that cntribute t it. Wrking ut hw this happens culd help t destry cancers, enhance respnses t vaccines (疫苗) and even re-evaluate physical diseases that, fr centuries, have nt been cnsidered as being psychlgically driven.
32. What d the researchers fcus n abut the brain?
A. Its prtecting system. B. Its expsure t diseases.
C. Its cntrlling functin. D. Its cnnectin t the bdy.
33. Hw des the authr supprt his idea in paragraph 2?
A. By explaining a thery. B. By prviding examples.
C. By making cmparisns. D. By presenting cause and effect.
34. Which best describes treatments that d nt crss the bld-brain barrier?
A. Cheaper. B. Mre specific. C. Safer. D. Mre direct.
35. What des the study suggest in the last paragraph?
A. Brain health depends n immune changes.
B. Brain stimulatin leads t negative emtins.
C. The brain can help enhance psychlgical health.
D. The brain may be key t treating physical diseases.

Tap n it (nt with yur hand). If a durian is ripe, it shuld “sund like hitting a drum”, as the fruit is mre hllw with gap s f air inside the fruit. 37 The seeds are sure t have lsened up when we shake a ripen durian. A darker stem means that the durian has been harvested much earlier, s, bviusly, it isn’t suitable fr us t chse.
38 A perfectly elliptical durian is nt necessarily the mst delicius! If the durian has bulging (鼓起的) sides, it is ften an indicatin that the seeds are fleshy. If the sides are cncave, it is likely the chamber is empty. Odd-shaped durians als d nt mean that there is less meat. 39
