The western green mamba(绿曼巴蛇), a kind f snake, is between 5.9 feet and 10.5 feet lng. This makes the western green mamba the secnd lngest pisnus snake in Africa, with the black mamba being the first.
The western green mamba is, hwever, the mst agile(敏捷的) snake in the mamba family. Their skin clr is greenish yellw r live green, which helps them t hide in the envirnment. One ther imprtant feature f the snake is its lng tail with a sharp pint.

The western green mamba is mstly active in the daytime, but can als be seen hunting at night frm time t time.
The diet f a western green mamba is made up f birds and all kinds f small animals such as squirrels, mice and even bats.

Once the target has died, the western green mamba will swallw it whle. If these snakes are faced with danger, they will try t run away. If they have n way t run away, hwever, they will becme very aggressive and attack their enemies with their sharp teeth repeatedly.
The female western green mamba is the ne wh lay eggs. They will lay frm 5 t 15 eggs. The yung snakes are cmpletely independent after birth. The mther and father play n part in raising the baby snakes. The babies are brn with everything they need t survive in the wilderness. If they can reach adulthd, then they will have almst n natural predatrs.
The western green mamba is nt dying ut. But its biggest threat cmes frm peple and the damage they can bring t their hmes. Hpefully, the western green mamba can cntinue t live alngside peple and never have t wrry that they will die ut.

Data cllected by the Wrld Fd Prgram shws that every year ver 847 millin peple wrldwide suffer frm malnutritin and abut 3.1 millin children under the age f 5 die f starvatin.
While dealing with wrld hunger is an imprtant thing fr scientists, it is nt easy, cnsidering natural resurces. But thanks t new ideas like Livingbx, there may be sme hpe.
The Israeli scientists Nitzan Slan and Mti Chen say Livingbx is an envirnment-friendly ecsystem made f sme cnnected bxes t frm a mini-farm. This means that the vegetables are grwn in water instead f sil.
While prfessinal farmers have been ding that fr years, Livingbx is the first system built t gain nutrients frm cmmn waste. Better yet, it can run withut electricity and requires n farming skills t keep. This means that city peple wh cannt get fresh vegetables can use Livingbx t grw vegetables.
It is easy fr all farmers t set up the bxes. Then they fill them with fresh water and add the required seeds. As sn as they add ne r all three types f waste, the system will self-prduce the nitrgen needed fr the plants t take rt.
Thse that use fish waste have a duble advantage—they can cultivate bth fish and vegetables at the same time. The fish can prvide the waste needed fr the plants t grw, while the plants naturally filter the water and help keep a clean hme fr the fish.
Once the vegetables are ready t pick, farmers simply harvest them and begin the cycle all ver again. While the 15-square ft bx prvides enugh vegetables fr a family f fur, it is easy t make a larger Livingbx in rder t build larger farms.
The ne thing that can prevent Livingbx frm being used in develping cuntries is the cst. Hwever, sme businessmen with several nn-prfit rganizatins have prmised t keep it affrdable, s that pr peple living in cities f develping cuntries can get the chance t eat nutritius fd.
28. Why d scientists find it hard t slve wrld hunger?
A. Because it needs a lt f mney t slve the prblem.
B. Because there are t many peple are starving in the wrld.
C. Because the ppulatin grws rapidly and there are nt enugh resurces.
D. Because mst f the natural resurces have been damaged.
29. What d we knw abut Livingbx?
A. It is nt harmful t the envirnment.
B. It is made f bxes filled with rich sil.
C. It requires electricity.
D. It requires farmers t learn sme special skills.
30. Livingbx is designed t _________.
A. help develping cuntries becme rich
B. get rid f the waste prduced by animals
C. get clean water fr peple living in cities
D. let pr peple living in cities get fresh vegetables
31. Frm the last tw paragraphs, we can infer that __________.
A. farmers can use the bxes again
B. it will nt cst much mney t build Livingbx
C. Livingbx has been built by businessmen in the wrld
D. Livingbx has becme ppular in develping cuntries

Wmen wh wn cats are mre likely t have mental health prblems and kill themselves because they can be infected by a cmmn parasite that can be caught frm cat litter, a study has fund.
Researchers fund wmen infected with the Txplasma gndii (T. gndii) parasite(刚地弓形虫), which is spread thrugh cntact with cat waste r eating undercked meat r unwashed vegetables, are at increased risk f attempting suicide.
The study invlved mre than 45,000 wmen in Denmark. Abut a third f the wrld’s ppulatin is infected with the parasite, which hides in cells in the brain and muscles, ften withut prducing symptms. The infectin, which is called txplasmsis(弓形虫病), has been linked t mental illness, such as schizphrenia(精神分裂症), and changes in behavir.
The study’s senir authr Dctr Tedr Pstlache, an assciate prfessr f psychiatry(精神病学) at the University f Maryland Schl f Medicine in the United States, said, “We can’t say with certainty that T. gndii caused the wmen t try t kill themselves, but we did find a predictive assciatin between the infectin and suicide attempts later in life that deserves additinal studies.”
Dctr Albert Reece, vice president f medical affairs at the University f Maryland, said, “T. gndii infectin is a majr public health prblem arund the wrld, and many peple dn’t realize they’re infected.
“Dr Pstlache is a leading expert n suicide neurimmunlgy(神经免疫学). Suicide is a critically imprtant mental health issue. Abut ne millin peple cmmit suicide and anther 10 millin attempt suicide wrldwide each year. We hpe that this type f research will ne day help us find ways t save many lives that nw end t early in suicide.”
Dr. Pstlache’s research team at the University f Maryland was the first t reprt a cnnectin between T. gndii and suicidal behavir in 2009. He is cperating with researchers in Denmark, Germany and Sweden t cnfirm and investigate the way leading t this assciatin.
The T. gndii parasite thrives in the intestines f cats, and it is spread thrugh their waste. All warm-blded animals can becme infected thrugh cntact with it. Humans can becme infected by changing their infected cats’ litter bxes, eating unwashed vegetables, drinking water frm a plluted surce, r by eating undercked r raw meat.
Nt washing kitchen knives after preparing raw meat befre handling anther fd item als can lead t infectin. Pregnant wmen can pass the parasite directly t their unbrn babies and are advised nt t change cat litter bxes t avid pssible infectin.
Babies dn’t prduce antibdies t T. gndii fr three mnths after they are brn, s the antibdies present in their bld represented infectin in the mthers. The scientists studied Danish health patients t determine if any f these wmen later attempted suicide, including cases f vilent suicide attempts which may have invlved guns, sharp instruments and jumping frm high places.
The study fund that wmen infected with T. gndii were ne and a half times mre likely t attempt suicide cmpared t thse wh were nt infected, and the risk seemed t rise with increasing levels f the T. gndii antibdies.
Dr. Pstlache nted limitatins t the study, such as the inability t determine the cause f the suicidal behavir.
The findings were published nline in the Archives f General Psychiatry.
32. The cmmn way which is mre likely t be infected with the disease is _____.
A. t eat unwashed vegetables r undercked meat
B. t clean a place where a cat nce lived fr a time
C. t pass the infectin t her unbrn baby during a wman’s pregnancy
D. t reuse kitchen tls which have been used t cut raw meat
What is the cnsequence if a wman is infected with the parasite in the passage?
A. Having a high fever.B. Ding deliberate self-harm.
C. Keeping a depressed md.D. Becming bad tempered.
What can be inferred frm the passage?
A. Wmen have a higher risk t be infected by the parasite than men.
B. The result f the research may help the scientists t find ways t stp suicide in advance.
C. The scientists will cntinue their research int the pssible cnnectin.
D. The risk f being infected seems t rise with the decreasing levels f the antibdies.
Which f the fllwing statements wuld prbably be the best title f the passage?
A. Why are wmen mre likely t cmmit suicide?
B. Wmen shuld keep away frm cats.
C. Ways fund t deal with wmen’s mental prblems.
D. Are wmen wh wn cats at a suicide risk?

Once there lived a smart by named Eric. He always tpped every subject in his class. Hwever, he had ne shrtcming－he never respected thers. He was very rude t everyne and made fun f thse wh gt less marks than him.
“My dear, it is praisewrthy that yu get gd marks, but it is very bad t be a rude persn,” advised his father.
Eric replied with pride, “Being the first in everything is enugh t make everyne respect me.”
His father tried t explain, “If yu dn’t give respect t thers, hw will they give respect t yu? As smene rightly said, ‘Give respect and take respect.’”
“Dad, I d nt believe in such things,” replied Eric.
Hwever, Eric gradually nticed that in his class n ne wanted t sit with him, and even his friends started t ignre him.
A mnth passed, still nne f his classmates agreed t sit with him r talked t him. He tried t cnsle(安慰) himself with the thught that being a gd student, he has the respect f his teachers.
But sn he realized that it was all a delusin(错觉).
At the end f the schl year, his classmate Jacb (wh gt the secnd psitin in the class) was chsen as the best perfrmer f the year. Eric was cmpletely shcked.
“Sir, why did yu chse Jacb as the best perfrmer? I have scred the highest marks in every test!” Eric asked his class teacher rather rudely.
His teacher replied, “My dear, getting the first psitin desn’t make a persn and the best student f the class.. Thugh yu always scre the highest marks in the class, yu dn’t respect anyne.
Hearing this, Eric was n the verge f tears.
“My dear, I knw wh is the best. Jacb helps his classmates and he gives respect t them and as a reward he is given the respect back.”
When Eric arrived hme that day, he lked very sad. His father saw him and realized smething was wrng and asked, “What happened t yu?”

The western green mamba(绿曼巴蛇), a kind f snake, is between 5.9 feet and 10.5 feet lng. This makes the western green mamba the secnd lngest pisnus snake in Africa, with the black mamba being the first.
The western green mamba is, hwever, the mst agile(敏捷的) snake in the mamba family. Their skin clr is greenish yellw r live green, which helps them t hide in the envirnment. One ther imprtant feature f the snake is its lng tail with a sharp pint.
The western green mamba can be fund in West Africa. They ften live in rain frests. Being an arbreal species, these snakes spend mst f their time mving amng the tree tps. They are als used t mving n the grund and will cmmnly leave their trees t run after a ptential meal n the grund. The western green mamba is mstly active in the daytime, but can als be seen hunting at night frm time t time.
The diet f a western green mamba is made up f birds and all kinds f small animals such as squirrels, mice and even bats. These snakes can get clse t their target with the help f their natural skin clr. When they are clse enugh, they bite the target with pisnus teeth quickly. Once the target has died, the western green mamba will swallw it whle. If these snakes are faced with danger, they will try t run away. If they have n way t run away, hwever, they will becme very aggressive and attack their enemies with their sharp teeth repeatedly.
The female western green mamba is the ne wh lay eggs. They will lay frm 5 t 15 eggs. The yung snakes are cmpletely independent after birth. The mther and father play n part in raising the baby snakes. The babies are brn with everything they need t survive in the wilderness. If they can reach adulthd, then they will have almst n natural predatrs.
The western green mamba is nt dying ut. But its biggest threat cmes frm peple and the damage they can bring t their hmes. Hpefully, the western green mamba can cntinue t live alngside peple and never have t wrry that they will die ut.

Data cllected by the Wrld Fd Prgram shws that every year ver 847 millin peple wrldwide suffer frm malnutritin and abut 3.1 millin children under the age f 5 die f starvatin.
While dealing with wrld hunger is an imprtant thing fr scientists, it is nt easy, cnsidering natural resurces. But thanks t new ideas like Livingbx, there may be sme hpe.
The Israeli scientists Nitzan Slan and Mti Chen say Livingbx is an envirnment-friendly ecsystem made f sme cnnected bxes t frm a mini-farm. This means that the vegetables are grwn in water instead f sil.
While prfessinal farmers have been ding that fr years, Livingbx is the first system built t gain nutrients frm cmmn waste. Better yet, it can run withut electricity and requires n farming skills t keep. This means that city peple wh cannt get fresh vegetables can use Livingbx t grw vegetables.
It is easy fr all farmers t set up the bxes. Then they fill them with fresh water and add the required seeds. As sn as they add ne r all three types f waste, the system will self-prduce the nitrgen needed fr the plants t take rt.
Thse that use fish waste have a duble advantage—they can cultivate bth fish and vegetables at the same time. The fish can prvide the waste needed fr the plants t grw, while the plants naturally filter the water and help keep a clean hme fr the fish.
Once the vegetables are ready t pick, farmers simply harvest them and begin the cycle all ver again. While the 15-square ft bx prvides enugh vegetables fr a family f fur, it is easy t make a larger Livingbx in rder t build larger farms.
The ne thing that can prevent Livingbx frm being used in develping cuntries is the cst. Hwever, sme businessmen with several nn-prfit rganizatins have prmised t keep it affrdable, s that pr peple living in cities f develping cuntries can get the chance t eat nutritius fd.
28. Why d scientists find it hard t slve wrld hunger?
A. Because it needs a lt f mney t slve the prblem.
B. Because there are t many peple are starving in the wrld.
C. Because the ppulatin grws rapidly and there are nt enugh resurces.
D. Because mst f the natural resurces have been damaged.
29. What d we knw abut Livingbx?
A. It is nt harmful t the envirnment.
B. It is made f bxes filled with rich sil.
C. It requires electricity.
D. It requires farmers t learn sme special skills.
30. Livingbx is designed t _________.
A. help develping cuntries becme rich
B. get rid f the waste prduced by animals
C. get clean water fr peple living in cities
D. let pr peple living in cities get fresh vegetables
31. Frm the last tw paragraphs, we can infer that __________.
A. farmers can use the bxes again
B. it will nt cst much mney t build Livingbx
C. Livingbx has been built by businessmen in the wrld
D. Livingbx has becme ppular in develping cuntries

Wmen wh wn cats are mre likely t have mental health prblems and kill themselves because they can be infected by a cmmn parasite that can be caught frm cat litter, a study has fund.
Researchers fund wmen infected with the Txplasma gndii (T. gndii) parasite(刚地弓形虫), which is spread thrugh cntact with cat waste r eating undercked meat r unwashed vegetables, are at increased risk f attempting suicide.
The study invlved mre than 45,000 wmen in Denmark. Abut a third f the wrld’s ppulatin is infected with the parasite, which hides in cells in the brain and muscles, ften withut prducing symptms. The infectin, which is called txplasmsis(弓形虫病), has been linked t mental illness, such as schizphrenia(精神分裂症), and changes in behavir.
The study’s senir authr Dctr Tedr Pstlache, an assciate prfessr f psychiatry(精神病学) at the University f Maryland Schl f Medicine in the United States, said, “We can’t say with certainty that T. gndii caused the wmen t try t kill themselves, but we did find a predictive assciatin between the infectin and suicide attempts later in life that deserves additinal studies.”
Dctr Albert Reece, vice president f medical affairs at the University f Maryland, said, “T. gndii infectin is a majr public health prblem arund the wrld, and many peple dn’t realize they’re infected.
“Dr Pstlache is a leading expert n suicide neurimmunlgy(神经免疫学). Suicide is a critically imprtant mental health issue. Abut ne millin peple cmmit suicide and anther 10 millin attempt suicide wrldwide each year. We hpe that this type f research will ne day help us find ways t save many lives that nw end t early in suicide.”
Dr. Pstlache’s research team at the University f Maryland was the first t reprt a cnnectin between T. gndii and suicidal behavir in 2009. He is cperating with researchers in Denmark, Germany and Sweden t cnfirm and investigate the way leading t this assciatin.
The T. gndii parasite thrives in the intestines f cats, and it is spread thrugh their waste. All warm-blded animals can becme infected thrugh cntact with it. Humans can becme infected by changing their infected cats’ litter bxes, eating unwashed vegetables, drinking water frm a plluted surce, r by eating undercked r raw meat.
Nt washing kitchen knives after preparing raw meat befre handling anther fd item als can lead t infectin. Pregnant wmen can pass the parasite directly t their unbrn babies and are advised nt t change cat litter bxes t avid pssible infectin.
Babies dn’t prduce antibdies t T. gndii fr three mnths after they are brn, s the antibdies present in their bld represented infectin in the mthers. The scientists studied Danish health patients t determine if any f these wmen later attempted suicide, including cases f vilent suicide attempts which may have invlved guns, sharp instruments and jumping frm high places.
The study fund that wmen infected with T. gndii were ne and a half times mre likely t attempt suicide cmpared t thse wh were nt infected, and the risk seemed t rise with increasing levels f the T. gndii antibdies.
Dr. Pstlache nted limitatins t the study, such as the inability t determine the cause f the suicidal behavir.
The findings were published nline in the Archives f General Psychiatry.
32. The cmmn way which is mre likely t be infected with the disease is _____.
A. t eat unwashed vegetables r undercked meat
B. t clean a place where a cat nce lived fr a time
C. t pass the infectin t her unbrn baby during a wman’s pregnancy
D. t reuse kitchen tls which have been used t cut raw meat
What is the cnsequence if a wman is infected with the parasite in the passage?
A. Having a high fever.B. Ding deliberate self-harm.
C. Keeping a depressed md.D. Becming bad tempered.
What can be inferred frm the passage?
A. Wmen have a higher risk t be infected by the parasite than men.
B. The result f the research may help the scientists t find ways t stp suicide in advance.
C. The scientists will cntinue their research int the pssible cnnectin.
D. The risk f being infected seems t rise with the decreasing levels f the antibdies.
Which f the fllwing statements wuld prbably be the best title f the passage?
A. Why are wmen mre likely t cmmit suicide?
B. Wmen shuld keep away frm cats.
C. Ways fund t deal with wmen’s mental prblems.
D. Are wmen wh wn cats at a suicide risk?

Once there lived a smart by named Eric. He always tpped every subject in his class. Hwever, he had ne shrtcming－he never respected thers. He was very rude t everyne and made fun f thse wh gt less marks than him.
“My dear, it is praisewrthy that yu get gd marks, but it is very bad t be a rude persn,” advised his father.
Eric replied with pride, “Being the first in everything is enugh t make everyne respect me.”
His father tried t explain, “If yu dn’t give respect t thers, hw will they give respect t yu? As smene rightly said, ‘Give respect and take respect.’”
“Dad, I d nt believe in such things,” replied Eric.
Hwever, Eric gradually nticed that in his class n ne wanted t sit with him, and even his friends started t ignre him.
A mnth passed, still nne f his classmates agreed t sit with him r talked t him. He tried t cnsle(安慰) himself with the thught that being a gd student, he has the respect f his teachers.
But sn he realized that it was all a delusin(错觉).
At the end f the schl year, his classmate Jacb (wh gt the secnd psitin in the class) was chsen as the best perfrmer f the year. Eric was cmpletely shcked.
“Sir, why did yu chse Jacb as the best perfrmer? I have scred the highest marks in every test!” Eric asked his class teacher rather rudely.
His teacher replied, “My dear, getting the first psitin desn’t make a persn and the best student f the class.. Thugh yu always scre the highest marks in the class, yu dn’t respect anyne.
Hearing this, Eric was n the verge f tears.
“My dear, I knw wh is the best. Jacb helps his classmates and he gives respect t them and as a reward he is given the respect back.”
When Eric arrived hme that day, he lked very sad. His father saw him and realized smething was wrng and asked, “What happened t yu?”
