I used t vereat. I’ve never been significantly verweight, s peple are surprised t hear this. When yu think f vereating, yu think f smene wh is abve their natural weight range, right? Well, I used t purpsefully undereat as well. I was able t keep my weight within sme cntrl, but nly thrugh a lt f physical and mental pain.
Here’s a glimpse（一瞥）int my life as a first-year university student：
Friday：G t a party and eat a lt f chips. Feel guilty and regretful. Vw（发誓）t wake up and run an extra mile.
Saturday: Run 6 miles, cme hme and nly eat a tiny breakfast. Eat like a bird fr the rest f the day. Feel prud f myself.
Sunday: Study and snack n chclate chips all day. Feel sick.
Mnday: Head t class with n snack and n mney s that I can't buy any fd. Feel hungry but full f willpwer. G hme and vereat at dinner. Feel ut f cntrl.
My feelings were changing regularly. I was prud and in cntrl ne mment, and then full f regret and ut f cntrl the next. It was exhausting.
As I studied nutritin and human anatmy（人体解剖学）in university，I started t learn just hw amazing the human bdy is! The human bdy is an amazing, self-regulatry system. It knws exactly hw much fd 'it needs. When I learned this, my whle wrld changed. I stpped trying t manage my eating with willpwer. Instead f trying t pwer thrugh my hunger, I wuld prvide my bdy with healthy fds, s I wuld feel hungry less ften.
This prcess definitely tk sme wrk and reflectin, but after a while it became secnd nature. Eating has becme a jyful experience, instead f a surce f stress and wrry in my life. All my eating is nw guilt-free! I shamelessly eat unhealthy snacks withut regret. Of curse, the majrity f my fd intake des cme frm whle, healthy fds that are clse t nature.

27.Hw des the authr develp the text?

Harvesting fruit is a very precise peratin. The fruit must be picked when it is perfectly ripe. But with pickers in shrt supply in recent years, grwers needed t quickly find anther way t harvest their crps. Tevel Aerbtics Technlgies came t the farmers’ rescue with the Flying Autnmus Rbts (FARs) that can help pick fruit.
“Nt finding enugh fruit pickers is every farmer’s biggest cncern,” Yaniv Mar, Tevel’s funder and CEO said. Ask any farmer, anywhere in the wrld and they’ll tell yu they dn’t have the peple. Fd cnsumptin is increasing, but labr availability (劳动力可用性) is decreasing. If pickers are nt available, fruit will g bad n the trees. The flying rbts will wrk day and night in almst any weather, withut taking a break, t pick as much ripe fruit as pssible.
Mar set up Tevel in 2017 and develped the technlgy after seeing yung Israelis pick fruit and get tired after a few hurs. He realized that there had t be a better way, s he began develping the sftware and artificial intelligence (AI) that are needed fr the smart rbt pickers. “We have t teach the rbts abut the structure f each fruit, hw t access the fruit and hw t rtate (转动) it and discnnect it frm the tree,” Mar said.
The flying rbts circle rund trees and pick nly the ripe nes with a twist (扭动) f their integrated grasper arms. The rbts are fitted with cameras that use AI t assess the size and clr f the fruit s that nly the ripe nes are picked. The cameras als ensure that the rbts’ paths are nt blcked.
The rbts are currently picking Asian pears in Israel. In 2022, the FARs were used in pilt prgrams in Italy t pick peaches and ther fruits, as well as in the US. They are nt a replacement fr labr, instead, they are a slutin fr the inadequate human pickers. In the future fewer peple will wrk in picking and mre will wrk in managing the rbts, analyzing the data and making decisins.
28. Why are the FARs develped?
A. T imprve the sftware and AI fr smart rbts. B. T meet the shrtage f pickers t pick fruit.
C. T help farmers keep the fruit in perfect cnditin. D. T relieve farmers frm the tiredness f picking fruit.
29. What can we infer frm paragraphs 2 and 3?
A.The FARs can wrk withut stp in almst any weather.
B. The FARs can prduce mre fruit fr fd cnsumptin.
C. Labr shrtage is an urgent prblem in every cuntry.
D. Mar develped the FARs ut f curisity.
30. What des paragraph 4 mainly talk abut?
A.Where the rbts are used. B. What the rbts cnsist f.
C. Why the rbts are useful. D. Hw the rbts wrk.
31. What is the authr’s attitude twards the FARs?
A.Psitive. B. Dubtful. C. Wrried. D. Unclear.

Life as an astrnaut has varius unique attractins. This can include experiencing weightlessness and lking back at Earth as a pale blue dt. Fd is nt amng them. Space travelers ver the years have becme used t certain fds such as freeze-dried ice cream and liquid salt and pepper. Nw,the menu is set t be augmented，with the first space-grwn lettuce（生菜）fund t be as safe, nutritius and fresh as the Earth-grwn variety.

The space-grwn lettuces are similar in make-up t Earth-grwn nes but they have higher levels f bacteria（细菌），pssibly due t their grwth in a warmer，mre humid（潮湿的）and clsed-air system. But they are nt fund t carry any harmful bacteria.
NASA is nw enlarging the range f prduce grwn nbard the ISS. It will be quite sme time befre any vegetables can be transfrmed int a dish, hwever. “While we have nwhere t ck up there nw, we can lk frward t mre things that taste fresh," Massa explained.
32.What des the underlined wrd "augmented" prbably mean in Paragraph 1?
A.Measured. B.Engaged. C.Reduced. D.Enlarged.
33.What d we knw abut grwing space-grwn lettuce?
A.It's flavr and nutritinal quality decline. B.It can cntribute t astrnauts' mental health.
C.It is terrible fr astrnauts n missins. D.It will make sure the astrnauts' intake f nutritin.
34.What can we infer frm the text?
A.Lettuces will be grwn in batches nbard.
B.It will take at least 56 days t harvest the space-grwn lettuce crp.
C.The vegetable prductin system cnsists f three parts.
D.Thanks t grwing envirnment, the space-grwn lettuces dn't cntain any harmful bacteria.
35. What des Massa mainly intend t explain in the last paragraph?
A.The expectatin t enrich the variety f prduce grwn nbard.
B.The necessity t enlarge the space nbard.
