On hearing that they were the sixth and seventh wmen t win the Chemistry Prize, Charpentier said that she hpes girls and yung female scientists will "understand that nthing is impssible." They can "find great discveries. It’s independent f the gender. "

I think that's an imprtant way in which we encurage the next generatin," Ghez said. In additin t her research, she was als ne f the authrs f the 2006 children's bk Yu Can Be a Wman Astrnmer.

But ugly fruits shuld be lved, t. In recent years, a new crp f “ugly prduce” cmpanies have been arund the U.S. These star-ups sell thse ugly fruits that supermarkets refuse. And they send them right t yur dr.
The cmpanies say they’re n a missin(使命). They want t stp billins f punds f imperfect prduce(农产品) frm ging t waste. Think f it this way: Is a banged-up (be kncked and sme places brken) banana any less tasty in a peanut butter sandwich? Why shuld it be thrwn away?
Sunds like these cmpanies have the right idea. They even ffer deep lw prices. That’s great news fr custmers. But nt everyne is happy. Sme peple say these cmpanies may be thinking nly abut themselves.
________(1)________
Imperfect prduce isn't always wasted.
Many small farmers had already been selling imperfect prduce t custmers and farmers markets. Then the ugly prduce cmpanies stared grwing up. These cmpanies. such as Imperfect Prduce, can ffer mre fruits and veggies frm large farms arund the cunty. They make it harder fr smaller farms t cmpete. S the farmers are lsing mney.
Als, ugly fruits and veggies already have uses: Take the fd service industry fr example. There, prduce it sliced, diced, blended, and mre. N ne cares if the fruit is pretty r ugly. On farms, fruits can be fed t animals. Rtted (腐烂的) fruit is added back int sil fr nutrients. And, what’s mre, ugly prduce cmpanies have been charged with taking fd away frm the needy.
Are these start-ups causing mre bad than gd?
Nt S Bad, After All?
What d ugly prduce cmpanies say? They are guarding themselves. In March 2019, Imperfect Prduce tld peple that the cmpany desn’t take away frm the needy. It gets resurces frm farms nly after fd banks take what they want, it said. Als, the cmpany ften gives fd t fd banks. Put that in yur fd basket!
It is true that prduce ges t waste in America. The Department f Agriculture has said that fd waste is a big prblem. In fact, abut 30 t 40 percent f the cuntry's fd is wasted.
But Imperfect Prduce says bth farmers and ugly prduce cmpanies can help reduce fd waste. It desn’t have t be either-r.
N matter whse side yu’re n, remember this: It’s what's n the inside that cunts.
46. What des Paragraph 3 mainly. talk abut?
A. Ugly prduce cmpanies are ding mre gd than bad.
B. Nt everyne supprts ugly prduce cmpanies' missins.
C. Ugly prduce cmpanies are lved because f lwer prices.
D. Ugly prduce cmpanies make the mst use f imperfect prduce.
47. What is the mst suitable fr the ________(1)________?
A. The Ugly Truth?B. Nt S Gd, Abve All.
C. But S Bad, Really?D. The ugly Wasted.
48. The writer prbably wrte the article in rder t. _________ .
A. tell ugly prduce cmpanies t give unwanted fruits and vegetables t the needy
B. shw the reasns why there are mre and mre ugly prduce cmpanies

Nature and culture are ften seen as ppsite ideas. What belngs t nature cannt be the result f human activities and n the ther hand, cultural develpment is achieved against nature. Hwever, this is nt the nly pinin n the relatinship between nature and culture. Studies in the develpment f humans suggest that culture whether taken as an effrt against nature r a natural effrt, is part f the develpment f the human species(物种).
Several mdern writers saw the prcess f educatin as a struggle(斗争) against human nature. We are brn with wild natures, such as eating and behaving in a disrganized way r acting selfishly. Educatin uses culture as a way t get us ut f ur widest natures; it is thanks t culture that the human species culd learn t adapt(适应), prgress and raise itself abve and beynd ther species.
Over the past century and a half, hwever, studies in the histry f human develpment have shwn that the frmatin f culture is part f the bilgical adaptatin. Cnsider, fr example, hunting(打猎) . It seems t be an adaptatin, which allwed humans t mve int new and different areas, pening up the pprtunity
t change living habits. At the same time, the develpment f weapns(武器) is related t that adaptatin—frm rcks and stnes t a set f hunting tls, and frm hunting tls t rules relating t the prper use f
weapns. Hunting als seems t be respnsible fr a whle set f bdily abilities, such as balancing n ne ft. Just think f hw this very simple thing is clsely related t dance, a key expressin f human culture. It is then clear that bilgical develpment and cultural develpment are clsely tied.
The transmissin f culture seems t be directly related t what's in ur bld. Just as snails carry their shell, s d we bring alng ur culture. Hwever, culture is als passed n amng peple f the same times r amng peple belnging t different ppulatins. We can learn hw t make jiazi even if we were brn frm Russian parents in Paris just as we can learn hw t speak English even if nne f ur family r friends speaks that language.
49. What is Paragraph 2 mainly abut?
A. Culture belngs t human nature.B. Nature teaches humans hw t adapt.
C. Humans are suppsed t be well rganized.D. Educatin pushes the human species t prgress.
50. Why des the writer talk abut hunting in Paragraph3
A. T suggest sme pssible ways f changing living habits.
B. T stress the imprtance f tls in humans' struggle fr life.
C. T shw hw culture develps as humans adapt t the envirnment.
D. T explain why there is a need t call fr the prper use f weapns.
51. The wrd “transmissin” in Paragraph 4 prbably means “___________”
A. systemB. spreadC. startD. spirit
52. What is the writer's pinin n the nature-culture relatinship?
A. Culture and nature are separate yet balanced.B. Culture depends much n nature t prgress.
C. Nature and culture are different but cnnected.D. Nature fllws the unwritten rules set by culture.
