At the age f 14, James Harrisn had a majr chest peratin and he required 13 units (3.4 gallns) f bld afterwards．The bld dnatins saved his life, and he decided that nce he turned 18, he wuld begin dnating bld as regularly as he culd．
Mre than 60 years and almst 1,200 dnatins later, Harrisn, whse bld cntains an antibdy (抗体) that has saved the lives f 2.4 millin babies frm miscarriages (流产), retired as a bld dnr n May 11．Harrisn’s bld is valuable because he naturally prduces Rh-negative bld, which cntains Rh-psitive antibdies．His bld has been used t create anti-D in Australia since 1967．
“Every bttle f anti-D ever made in Australia has James in it,” Rbyn Barlw, the Rh prgram directr tld the Sydney Mrning Herald．“It’s an amazing thing．He has saved millins f babies．I cry just thinking abut it.” Since then, Harrisn has dnated between 500 and 800 milliliters f bld almst every week．“I’d keep ging if they let me,” Harrisn tld the Herald．His dctrs said it was time t stp the dnatins．They had already extended the age limit fr bld dnatins fr him, and they’re cutting him ff nw t prtect his health．
Harrisn’s retirement is a blw t the Rh treatment prgram in Australia．Only 160 dnrs supprt the prgram, and finding new dnrs has prven t be difficult．But Harrisn’s retirement frm giving bld desn’t mean he’s cmpletely ut f the game．Scientists are cllecting and catalging his DNA t create a library f antibdies and white bld cells that culd be the future f the anti-D prgram in Australia
24．Why did James Harrisn decide t dnate bld as regularly as he culd?
A．Because he wanted t be a celebrity.

Recently, campaigners have encuraged us t buy lcal fd．This reduces "fd miles", that is, the distance fd travels t get frm the prducer t the retailer．They reasn that the higher the fd miles, the mre carbn emissins．Buying lcal fd, therefre, has a lwer carbn ftprint and is mre envirnmentally friendly.
Hwever, the real stry is nt as simple as that．If ur aim is t reduce carbn emissins, we must lk at the whle farming prcess, nt just transprtatin．Other prcesses, including fertilizatin, strage, heating and irrigatin, cntribute much mre.
In fact, imprted fd ften has a lwer carbn ftprint than lcally grwn fd．Take apples fr example．In autumn, when apples are harvested, the best ptin fr a British resident is t buy British apples．Hwever, the apples we buy in winter r spring have been kept refrigerated fr mnths, and this uses up a lt f energy．In spring, therefre, it is mre energy- efficient t imprt them frm New Zealand, where they are in seasn．Heating als uses a lt f energy, which is why grwing tmates in heated greenhuses in the UK is less envirnmentally friendly than imprting them frm Spain, where the crp grws well in the lcal climate.
We must als take int accunt the type f transprt．Transprting fd by air creates abut 50 times mre emissins than shipping it．Hwever, nly a small prprtin f gds are flwn t the cnsumer cuntry, and these are usually high value, perishable items which we cannt prduce lcally．Even then, these fds may nt have a higher carbn ftprint than lcally grwn fd．Fr example, beans flwn in frm Kenya are grwn in sunny fields using manual labur and natural fertilizers, unlike in Britain, where we use il-based fertilizers and diesel machinery．Therefre, the ttal carbn ftprint is still lwer.
It's als wrth remembering that a prduct's jurney des nt end at the supermarket．The distance cnsumers travel t buy their fd, and the kind f transprt they use will als add t its carbn ftprint．S driving a lng way t shp fr fd will negate any envirnmental benefits f buying lcally grwn prduce.
Recently, sme supermarkets have been trying t raise awareness f fd miles t．But ultimately, the measures are t simple．Lts f different factrs cntribute t a fd's carbn ftprint besides the distance it has travelled.
28．Why is imprting apples frm New Zealand mre energy-efficient fr British residents in spring?
A．It reduces fd miles.
B．British apples are in shrt supply.
C．New Zealand apples are cheaper.
D．British apples have been stred under energy-cnsuming cnditins.
29．Which f the fllwing statements is crrect accrding t the passage?
A．Only cnsidering fd miles is an versimplified way t assess a fd's envirnmental impact.
B．All imprted fd has a higher carbn ftprint than lcally grwn fd.
C．Beans flwn in frm Kenya have higher carbn ftprints than grwn in Britain.
D．Transprting fd by air always results in a higher carbn ftprint than grwing lcal fd.
30．The underlined wrd" negate" in paragraph 5 prbably means ________.
A．enhance. B．ignre. C．cancel ut. D．misunderstand.
31．What is the authr's attitude twards buying lcal fd?
A．Strngly supprtive. B．Cautiusly skeptical.
C．Cmpletely ppsed. D．Smewhat indifferent.

As f 2020, the wrld’s biggest lithium-in (锂离子) battery is hked up t the Suthern Califrnia pwer grid and can prvide 250 millin watts f pwer, r enugh t pwer abut 250,000 hmes. But it’s actually nt the biggest battery in the wrld: these lakes are.
Wait—hw can a pair f lakes be a battery? T answer that questin, it helps t define a battery: it’s simply smething that stres energy and releases it n demand. The lithium-in batteries that pwer ur phnes, laptps, and cars are just ne type. They stre energy in lithium ins.
Hw d the tw lakes stre and release energy? First, ne is 300 meters higher than the ther. Electricity pwers pumps that mve billins f liters f water frm the lwer lake t the higher ne. This stres the energy by giving the water extra gravitatinal ptential energy. Then, when there’s high demand fr electricity, valves (阀门) pen, releasing the stred energy by letting water flw dwnhill t pwer 6 giant turbines that can generate 3 billin watts f pwer fr 10 hurs.
Unfrtunately, neither f the giant batteries we’ve talked abut s far is big enugh t pwer multiple cities. The tw lakes’ setup requires specific gegraphy, takes up a lt f land, and has high upfrnt csts t build. The giant lithium-in battery in Califrnia can pwer abut 250,000 hmes, yes, but nly fr an hur. Lithium-in batteries als require certain heavy metals t make. These resurces are limited, and mining them causes envirnmental damage. Inventrs all ver the wrld are rising t the challenge f making batteries that can meet ur needs--many f them even weirder than the tw lakes.
32．Why is the wrld’s biggest lithium-in battery mentined in Paragraph 1?
A．T make a cmparisn.B．T intrduce the tpic.
C．T stress its imprtance.D．T declare a fact.
33．Which statement is true accrding t the passage?
A．With the help f the pumps, the tw lakes stre energy.
B．The water flws by itself t release the stred energy.
C．The tw lakes’ setup is able t pwer multiple cities.
D．Lithium-in batteries are envirnmentally friendly.
34．What will mst prbably be talked abut in the fllwing paragraph?
A．Inventrs’ wrries.B．Inventrs’ effrts.
C．Stranger batteries.D．New challenges.
35．Which is the best title fr the passage?
A．Battery Inventrs Face New Challenges.
B．The Wrld’s Biggest Battery Lks Nthing Like a Battery.
C．Giant Batteries Fail t Meet Our Needs.
D．Newly-invented Batteries.

Okay. I’ll admit it. I can be a cmplainer. After all, there’s s much in this life t cmplain abut: the dirty clthes that dn’t make it int the basket, that annying neighbr’s lud music, my husband’s shes left casually at the frnt dr, rainy days, traffic…
Cmplaining is a habit I have develped since childhd, and a skill I have hned (磨练) thrugh the years. My family didn’t seem t mind — they were great cmplainers, t — thugh I d recall sme eye-rlling and lng-drawn sighs frm friends and schlmates when I wuld vice my negative pinins. In fact, I can distinctly recall the exact mment when I first realized my cmplaining habit reached its expert level.
One day, as I reminded my husband nce again t remve his bills frm the dining-rm table, put his shes away, and lwer that dg-gne radi, he put up his hand. “Stp! Stp yur cmplaining. It’s driving me crazy.”
I lked at him blank-eyed.
He tk a deep breath. “Yu never hear me cmplaining, d yu?”
“Well,” I answered, “yu’re cmplaining abut my cmplaining, s actually, yes, I am hearing yu cmplain right nw.”
His eyes widened. Sweat frmed n his upper lip. Then he grabbed his car keys and ran ut f the dr.
Perhaps I’d gne t far, I thught．Maybe I really did cmplain t much. But, what t d abut it? After all, it had been a lifetime habit．And habits are hard t break.

It’s my distinct pleasure and hnr t share my perspective n the respnsible and intelligent use f artificial intelligence.
Generally speaking，there are numerus advantages f AI，such as prcessing infrmatin at lightning speed and assisting us in cmplex tasks，thus enhancing ur ability t learn and grw．Nevertheless，as we embrace these advancements，it is crucial t be aware f the ptential dwnsides．Fr instance，ver-reliance n AI can lead t a decrease in ur ability t innvate and think critically．
In cnclusin，as a student，it is imperative that we apprach AI with cautin and wisdm．Only in this way can we reap its benefits while minimizing any ptential dwnsides．That’s all．Thank yu.
