Sitting in the garden fr my friend's birthday.I felt a buzz（振动） in my pcket.My heart raced when I saw the email sender's name.The email started ff：" Dear Mr Green，thank yu fr yur interest" and "the review prcess tk lnger than expected." It ended with"We are srry t infrm yu…"and my visin blurred（模糊）.The psitin—measuring sil quality in the Sahara Desert as part f an undergraduate research prgramme—had felt like the answer I had spent years lking fr.
I had put s much time and emtinal energy int applying，and I thught the rejectin meant the end f the rad fr my science career.
S I was shcked when，nt lng after the email，Prfessr Mary Devn，wh was running the prgramme，invited me t bserve the wrk being dne in her lab.I jumped at the chance，and a few weeks later I was equally shcked—and verjyed—when she invited me t talk with her abut ptential prjects I culd pursue in her lab.What she prpsed didn't seem as exciting as the riginal prject I had applied t，but I was ging t give it my all.
I fund myself wrking with a rbtics prfessr n techniques fr cllecting data frm the desert remtely.That prject，which I culd cmplete frm my sfa instead f in the burning heat f the desert，nt nly survived the lckdwn but wrked where traditinal methds didn't.In the end.I had a new scientific interest t pursue.
When I applied t graduate schl，I fund three prgrammes prmising t allw me t fllw my desired research directin.And I applied with the same anxius excitement as befre.When I was rejected frm ne that had seemed like a perfect fit，it was undubtedly difficult.But this time I had the perspective（视角）t keep it frm sending me int panic.It helped that in the end I was accepted int ne f the ther prgrammes I was als excited abut.
Rather than setting plans in stne，I've learned that smetimes I need t take the pprtunities that are ffered，even if they dn't sund perfect at the time，and make the mst f them.
24.Hw did the authr feel upn seeing the email sender's name？
A.Anxius. B.Angry. C.Surprised. D.Settled.
25.After talking with Prfessr Devn，the authr decided t ______.
A.criticize the review prcess
B.stay lnger in the Sahara Desert
C.apply t the riginal prject again
D.put his heart and sul int the lab wrk
26.Accrding t the authr，the prject with the rbtics prfessr was ______.
A.demanding B.inspiring C.misleading D.amusing
27.What can we learn frm this passage？
A.An invitatin is a reputatin.
B.An innvatin is a reslutin.
C.A rejectin can be a redirectin.
D.A reflectin can be a restrictin.

It is an unpleasant extinctin that will change the wrld and hw peple cmmunicate：within 20 years，
tw thirds f all the planet's languages will be dead.
Experts agree that nthing can stp it happening but ne academic is trying her hardest t slw it dwn.Prfessr Antnella Srace is ne f a grwing number wh believe learning a secnd language has enrmus untapped benefits fr the human brain.This is true nt nly fr yung children but als fr adults and peple at risk frm dementia(痴呆),where research cnsistently shws that learning a new language culd delay the start f the disease fr fur t five years —a better result than with any medicatin t date.
It is thse benefits f bilingualism(双语) that shuld encurage us t preserve and prtect Eurpe's minrity languages—Gaelic,Manx,Crnish and Ulster Scts, she says.
Already her wrk and the prject she funded three years ag in Edinburgh,Bilingualism Matters— nw expanding acrss Eurpe and in the US— have cnvinced the Scttish gvernment t intrduce languages t primary schls. Frm 2023 all Scttish children will be learning a language ther than English in their first year at schl, with tw ther languages t be intrduced later.
Bilingualism Matters is als wrking t encurage businesses t cnsider the benefits f their staff learning languages. “In business, peple say 'English is the language f business, why wuld I need t learn anther language？'” said Srace. “Maybe it wuld mean yu culd d better business.”
Just as disappearing frests take with them secrets f undiscvered medicines, disappearing languages can take the key t a lnger and better quality f life.The first battle is t unpick the ppular assumptin that bilingualism might damage children’s brains.There were even suggestins it culd encurage schizphrenia
（精神分裂症）.
Study after study has shwn the ppsite t be true，says Srace. “These prejudices are deeply rted,
but we are perhaps halfway t persuading peple that the brain can cpe. Then we have t persuade peple that it is actually f benefit.”
28.What will happen t the majrity f the wrld's languages？
A.They will becme extinct in decades.
B.They will be learnt by mre academics.
C.They will prevent the risk f dementia.
D.They will help peple better cmmunicate.
29.What's Bilingualism Matters intended t d？
A.Find a replacement fr English.
B.Teach businesses marketing skills.
C.Prmte minrity language learning.
D.Influence gvernments' plicy making.
30.What's the tp pririty in preserving minrity languages？
A.Getting rid f peple's fear fr mental illnesses.
B.Finding the key t prmting peple's welfare.
C.Unlcking the secrets f undiscvered medicines.
D.Crrecting the miscnceptin abut Bilingualism.
31.Which can be the best title fr the text？
A.The benefits f Bilingualism.
B.The funding f Bilingualism Matters.
C.A new challenge facing language teaching.
D.A prfessr fighting t save minrity languages.
D
By the end f the century，if nt sner，the wrld's ceans will be bluer and greener thanks t a warming climate，accrding t a new study．
At the heart f the phenmenn lie tiny marine micrrganisms（海洋微生物）called phytplanktn．
Because f the way light reflects ff the rganisms,these phytplanktn create clurful patterns at the cean surface. Ocean clur varies frm green t blue,depending n the type and cncentratin f phytplanktn．
Climate change will fuel the grwth f phytplanktn in sme areas, while reducing it in ther spts, leading t changes in the cean's appearance．
Phytplanktn live at the cean surface, where they pull carbn dixide（二氧化碳） int the cean while giving ff xygen. When these rganisms die, they bury carbn in the deep cean, an imprtant prcess that helps t regulate the glbal climate. But phytplanktn are vulnerable t the cean's warming trend. Warming changes key characteristics f the cean and can affect phytplanktn grwth, since they need nt nly sunlight and carbn dixide t grw,but als nutrients．
Stephanie Dutkiewiez, a scientist in MIT's Center fr Glbal Change Science,built a climate mdel that prjects changes t the ceans tale thrughut the century. In a wrld that warms up by 3℃, it fund that multiple changes t the clur f the ceans wuld ccur. The mdel prjects that currently blue areas with little phytplanktn culd becme even bluer. But in sme waters, such as thse f the Arctic,a warming will make cnditins riper fr phytplanktn, and these areas will turn greener. “Nt nly are the quantities f phytplanktn in the cean changing.” she said, “but the type f phytplanktn is changing.”
And why des that matter？Phytplanktn are the base f the fd web. If certain kinds begin t disappear frm the cean, Dutkiewiez said, “it will change the type f fish that will be able t survive.” Thse kinds f changes culd affect the fd chain．
Whatever clur changes the cean experiences in the cming decades will prbably be t gradual and unnticeable, but they culd mean significant changes. “It'll be a while befre we can statistically shw that the changes are happening because f climate change,” Dutkiewick said, “but the change in the clur f the cean will be ne f the early warning signals that we really have changed ur planet.”
32.What are the first tw paragraphs mainly abut？
A．The varius patterns at the cean surface．
B．The cause f the changes in cean clur．
C．The way light reflects ff marine rganisms．
D．The effrts t fuel the grwth f phytplanktn．
33.What des the underlined wrd "vulnerable" in Paragraph 3 prbably mean？
A.Sensitive B.Beneficial C.Significant D.Unnticeable
34.What can we learn frm the passage？
A．Phytplanktn play a declining rle in the marine ecsystem．
B．Dutkiewiez's mdel aims t prject phytplanktn changes．
C．Phytplanktn have been used t cntrl glbal climate．
D．Oceans with mre phytplanktn may appear greener．
35. What is the main purpse f the passage？
A．T assess the cnsequences f cean clur changes．
B．T analyse the cmpsitin f the cean fd chain．
C．T explain the effects f climate change n ceans．
D．T intrduce a new methd t study phytplanktn
