In the west f the city Seville in Spain, a sea f giant mirrrs is reflecting the sun’s energy t prvide “cncentrated slar pwer (CSP)” while brightening the path t a new wave f green energy prjects.
The 624 carefully psitined mirrrs reflect the sun’s heat twards a 50-meter-tall central twer where it is cncentrated and used t bil water int steam. The superheated steam is then used t turn a turbine (汽轮机) that can prduce up t 11 megawatts f electricity—enugh pwer fr 6,000 hmes—accrding t Slucar, the Spanish cmpany that has built the pwer plant.
The Spanish twer, knwn as PS10, is the first stage f an ambitius develpment. By 2025 it is hped that additinal twers will create “a slar farm” with an utput f 500 megawatts, which wuld be enugh pwer fr 180,000 hmes, almst the entire ppulatin f nearby Seville.
CSP prduces n greenhuse gases and the nly pllutin is visual. There is als the pssibility that prductin can keep ging arund the clck-even when the sun has gne dwn. Slucar is currently testing technlgy at a plant near Granada that will pump 50 percent f the electricity generated in the day int the Spanish natinal grid (国家输电网), and use the ther 50 percent t melt salt, which will then act as a kind f battery, string the sun’s pwer. When dusk falls, the heat stred in the mlten salt can be used t generate pwer thrugh the night.
The Sahara, the wrld’s largest desert, has always been seen as a prblem. But with large-scale CSP prjects, suddenly all that empty space, with its year rund clear skies and ht sun, has a value that culd transfrm lcal ecnmies. It culd ptentially turn Africa int an exprter f energy t pwer-hungry Eurpe.
24．What is the Spanish twer PS10 used t d accrding t the text?
A．Stre biled water.B．Generate electricity.
C．Reflect the sun’s energy.D．Brighten the path nearby.
25．The underlined phrase “a slar farm” in paragraph 3 refers t a place where .
A．twers like PS10 are set up
B．greenhuses are built t make prfits
C．crps are grwn with new technlgy
D．farmers mainly use slar energy at hme
26．The plant near Granada melts salt in the day s that .
A．mlten salt wrks better than water when prducing electricity
B．melting salt can reduce envirnmental pllutin
C．sme sun pwer can be saved fr the night use
D．salt is easy t melt in the sun
27．Which wrd can best describe the authr’s attitude twards the future f CSP?
A．Critical.B．Dubtful.C．Subjective.D．Optimistic.
C
Music has been cnsidered as a "backgrund" fr varius activities fr centuries. The develpment f electrnic recrding and reprductin systems has enabled backgrund music t becme prevalent in sciety. Backgrund music is intended t be heard but nt actively r purpsely listened t. Strictly speaking, music that catches a persn's attentin isn't truly "backgrund" music.
There is certainly strng evidence frm different kinds f surces that peple respnd differently t varius kinds f music. Hwever, the varius factrs that may influence the effects f different kinds f music n behavir and cgnitin （认知）haven't been systematically dcumented r explred. Hectr Berliz's descriptin f his reactins t a piece f music included increased bld circulatin, vilent pulse rate, trembling and many thers. Althugh in Berliz's case he was actively listening t the music rather than passively absrbing the sund, the effects n his physilgical （生理的）mechanisms were very marked.
Nwadays, music is available t everyne thrugh radi, recrdings and televisin, and recrded backgrund music is played in many public places. But there have been few studies which have investigated the effect f backgrund music n the behaviur f pupils. Hallam carried ut a study n mathematics perfrmance in a schl fr children with emtinal and behaviral disrders （EBD）. A significant imprvement ccurred in the behavir f these children when backgrund music was played. And imprved levels f c-peratin and a reductin in aggressin （攻击性）were als reprted in the lessns immediately fllwing the interventin. Other studies fund that, mst pupils, with apprpriate music in the backgrund, felt mre relaxed, happier and mre prductive. The mst effective music fr imprving children's perfrmance was what they liked, prviding that it didn't verly excite them.
Studies at the Tmatis Institute widely used specially designed music t cure children with learning disabilities and attentin disrders. The Tmatis techniques are based n the thery that, unlike the cntinuus lw-frequency sunds in sme music stimulate the inner ear and imprve the brain's listening, helping it prcess all infrmatin mre accurately.
28．What des the underlined wrd "prevalent" in Paragraph 1 mean?
A．Ppular.B．Valuable.C．Familiar.D．Imprtant.
29．What des Hectr Berliz's case shw?
A．Typical human reactins t music.B．Effect f music n human physilgy.
C．Humans' active participatin in music.D．Physilgical disrders caused by music.
30．What can we knw frm the third paragraph?
A．Mst pupils feel less stressed after listening t music.
B．Backgrund music played at schl is widely studied.
C．Pupils with EBD expsed t music behave less aggressive.
D．Effective backgrund music is the music that excites pupils mst.
31．Tmatis Institute cures children with attentin disrders by ________.
A．stimulating their inner ear with lw-frequency sunds in music
B．develping their listening skills t prcess infrmatin mre clearly
C．imprving their brain's listening with high-frequency sunds in music
D．putting them in envirnments filled with cntinuus lw-frequency sunds

A maverick describes a persn wh thinks independently. A maverick refuses t fllw the custms r rules f a grup t which he r she belngs. In the US, a maverick is ften admired fr his r her free spirit, althugh thers wh belng t the maverick’s grup may nt like the maverick’s independent ways.
But where did the wrd “maverick” cme frm?
Early in the 1800s, a man named Samuel Augustus Maverick settled dwn in Texas, which was a place f wide-pen land, rich sil, cattle ranches(牛场) and cwbys. As the years passed, Mr. Maverick increased his prperty(财产) in Texas. Befre lng, he wned huge pieces f land that were gd fr raising cattle. But he had n cattle. He wasn’t a rancher.

It was a traditin amng ranchers in the West t put a mark f wnership n newbrn calves. They burned the name f their ranch int the animal’s skin with a ht irn. The irn made a clear mark called a “brand”. Brands allwed ranchers t easily see wh wned which cattle.
Samuel Maverick refused t brand his calves. “Why shuld I?” he asked. If all the ther cattle wners branded theirs, then thse withut a brand belnged t him.
