The Mustard Seed Project is getting closer to one of its initiatives-building affordable senior housing on the Kev Peninsula, Washington.

The Nonprofit carries out the project so that people don't have to leave the Key Peninsula as they age and have home care needs. “We hope to build in Key Center, a good, central location for our community. Our vision is to have a campus with a cafe and meeting spaces, 10 independent living cottages that have one or two bedrooms with laundry, housekeeping and one meal a day provided, and then assisted living for 30 residents, ” said board president Sara Thompson. “We want this to be a place that draws the entire community in, rather than a setting that sets elders aside in an isolated environment. ”

More than a year ago, a longtime supporter of the organization made a major gift to undertake a long-desired study to understand both the needs of the community and the financial feasibility （可行性）for senior housing. As a result, The Mustard Seed Project had a meeting in November at the Key Peninsula Civic Center to explain the results of the study and to plan for the next steps.

“We'll be applying for a predevelopment loan to do all the necessary planning, ”The Mustard Seed Project Executive Director Edie Morgan said. “We're aware of affordable loans for the assisted living section of the project, and can get standard financing for the other buildings. But there will be a funding gap, and we expect to need to raise nearly $3 million to make this happen. I believe we can do it. ”

On September 1, 1985, Dr. Robert Ballard and his crew spotted one of Titanic's boilers. They erupted with cheers. By the time of the crew's discovery, 73 years had passed since the ship sank. Several missions had set off to look for it, including a 1977 one led by Ballard.

In the early 1980s, Ballard asked the U. S. Navy to fund the development of the Argo, an unmanned camera sled that could be dragged behind a surface ship at depths of up to 20, 000 feet. The Navy were interested in using the Argo to survey the wrecks （沉船）of the U. S. S. Thresher and Scorpion, two nuclear submarines （潜水艇）that had been lost in the North Atlantic. They eventually agreed that if Ballard could successfully locate and map the two subs he could use whatever time left to look for Titanic.

While photographing Thresher and Scorpion, Ballard noticed that the current had carried debris （碎片）from the ships as they fell to the seafloor, treating a long chain. With this in mind, he decided not to search for Titanic's main body. Instead, he would use Argo to search for its much larger debris track, which might stretch as far as a mile. Once he found it, he could use it to track down the ship itself. With the new approach, after a few days, they discovered the boiler. Argo stalked the debris track, and the following morning, Titanic's bow came out of the inky depths.

The Titanic lies now in 13, 000 feet of water, "Ballard said at a press conference, "There is no tight at this great depth and little life can be found. It is a quiet and peaceful place-and a fitting place for the remains of this greatest of sea tragedies to rest. Forever may it remain that way. ”

28. Why did the Navy support the development of the Argo?

A. To develop underwater robots.      B. To locate the wreck of Titanic.

C. To find two nuclear submarines.     D. To map the North Atlantic.

29. What gave Ballard inspiration for the new search method?

A. The 1977 search attempt.       B. The surface ship with the Argo.

C. The photographs of Titanic.      D. The debris chain of the submarines.

30. What does the underlined word “stalked” in paragraph 3 mean?

A. Traced.     B. Recognized.   C. Cleared.   D. Dragged.

31. What is the purpose of Ballard's statement at the press conference?

A. To share the exact position of Titanic.

B. To advocate leaving Titanic undisturbed.

C. To launch surveys on sea tragedies.

D. To show respect for Ballard's crew.

D

Parenting styles have evolved over the years in response to the rapid social changes. Whether it is tapping technology or applying the best parenting practices, parents nowadays generally invest more time in finding out how best to raise their child.

Modem parents have access to the internet and social media for ideal parenting advice and tips. There are also numerous parenting groups for different age groups on social media that parents can join. A parent can post questions from how to manage the constant cries of an infant to how to talk to a moody teenager, and chances are, the parent will be flooded instantly with advice and relevant articles. The availability of resources has helped modern parents to be more? involved and supportive of their children's development, academically, emotionally and socially. Modern parents are also keener to find out about effective parenting methods to raise disciplined and confident children.

Meanwhile, one of modern parenting styles, helicopter parenting, arises. When parents become over-involved, over-concerned and over-controlling, they start helping children with what they are capable of on their own, for example, selecting activities and friends for them. Such a? parenting style can restrict the children's ability to handle responsibilities independently. Children might be ill-equipped with life skills such as operating a stove or monitoring their schoolwork. Overprotecting children from failures may also be prevented from developing resilience （韧性） and acquiring skills like problem-solving.

On the other hand， parents in the past tended to supervise （监管）less. Children were given more control over how they managed their schoolwork and the friends they chose to play with. They were often expected to shoulder the responsibilities of caring for younger siblings and managing household chores. Living in the preinternet era, parents were less informed about different parenting approaches and personalities.

There is no one right way to raise a child and there is no need to doubt about the best parenting style. Each child is unique and should be raised differently by parents who are present, but not hovering （盘旋）；who are supportive but not controlling； and who protect but not spoil.

32. What does the author explain by mentioning “an infant” and “a moody teenager” in paragraph 2?

A. Devotion to kids.      B. Easy access to guidance.

C. Effective parenting.      D. Tricky parenting problems.

33. What does paragraph 3 mainly talk about concerning modern parenting?

A. Its benefits.  B. Its influence.  C. Its characteristics.  D. Its type.

34. What can we learn about parents in the past?

A. They had strengths and weaknesses in parenting.

B. They were wiser than modern parents in1 parenting.

C. They were to blame for child development prospect.

D. They contributed to the children's well-rounded abilities.

35. What is the purpose of writing the article?

A. To recommend how to parent wisely.

B. To appeal to learn from modern parents.

C. To inform how parenting has changed.

D. To introduce two parenting strategies.

阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。

Mrs. Palin spoke as she walked to the front of the classroom, “Next Wednesday, I’ll give you a test to check your ability as a conductor（指挥）. Now, select one of the composers（作曲家） listed on the chalkboard. And after class, find a tape containing the composition created by the composer. During the test, use the tape player to play the composition. When the music starts, imagine you are the conductor of an orchestra that performs the composer’s music.” And then she smiled, “You’ll receive the test in front of your classmates.”

“What? A test in front of the classmates? It will kill me,” I said to myself. Although normally I performed well in music, and often have high marks, I am quite a shy girl. After a short while, I took a deep breath and scanned the list of names on the chalkboard. One name caught my attention.

“Who’s that person?” I wondered. I didn’t know, but that was going to be my choice.

Seated in the classroom, I fixed my eyes on that name anxiously, hoping no one would announce that name. Finally, it was my turn. I said without a second thought, “Johannes Brahms.” once I said the name, panic washed over me. I sighed, “How am I going to do this? I know nothing about the person and his composition. But I have to perform in front of my classmates and teacher.”

Later in the day, I went to a store and bought a tape that contained Johannes Brahms’s compositions and its relevant music notation (乐谱). Back home, played the tape, and tried to get familiar with the composition. When listening to the composition and looking at the music score, I held a stick and moved my arms to and fro (来回地), pretending to be guiding an orchestra. During the following days, I kept practicing but didn’t perform quite well. The composition was indeed hard to me.

When the big day came, I felt nervous as I slipped into my seat and waited for my turn to perform. Eventually, Mrs. Palin called my name, “Jill, it’s your turn.”
