I was brn in a pr cmmunity n the nrth side f Bstn, US, raised by a single mther wh didn’t finish 3rd grade, lived each day n fd stamps (券) and attended what the media called “the mst dysfunctinal (功能失调的) public schl district”. Nt many peple expected much f me, s I had t expect smething f myself.
On my 13th birthday, I bught a pster f Harvard t hang in my rm. Being at Harvard became what I dreamt abut. Even if my electricity was cut ff, I still wke up at 5:30, because I knew that my pster f Harvard was still hanging nly tw feet away frm me.
Reminding myself f my gal each day made it easy t say n t the same chices I saw my peers making, because thse paths wuldn’t have had me clser t my gal. Being pr culd nt take away my pwer t decide what I chse t d with my day. The pster gave me the curage t cld email abut 50 Harvard students s I culd ask fr feedback n my applicatin essays: it gave me the energy t study just ne mre hur n my SATs when my friends were asleep; and it gave me the determinatin t submit just ne mre schlarship applicatin when 180 thers had already turned me dwn.
Every day, I culd feel myself getting clser and clser t my gal as my writing gt better, my SAT scre increased, and my schlarship checks started cming in. Finally, an email arrived frm Harvard. The first wrd was “Cngratulatins!” A mnth later, Harvard flew me up t visit the campus where fr the first time I stepped nt my dreaming land.

Plenty, an agricultural technlgy cmpany in San Francisc, is reinventing farms and farming. Nater Strye, the cmpany’s chief science fficer says the future f the farms will be vertical (系直的) and indrs, s fd can be grwn anywhere in the wrld all year rund, and farms will emply rbts and artificial intelligence (AI) t imprve the quality f grwth fr fruits and vegetables. Plenty des all thse things but uses 95% less water and 99% less land.
As AI is n the rise, farmers n flat farms have been using new tls t make farming better r easier. In recent years, they have been using drnes (无人机) and rbts t imprve efficiency. Hwever. flat farms still use a lt f water and land, while a Plenty’s vertical farm can prduce the same quantity f fruits and vegetables as a 720-acre flat farm, but n nly 2 acres
Plenty’s climate-cntrlled indr farm has rws f plants grwing vertically. There are LED lights shining n them, rbts mving them arund, and AI managing all the variables f water, temperature, and light. The cnditins are s gd that the prductin per acre is 400 times higher than that f an utdr farm.
Anther advantage f vertical farming is that the fruits and vegetables are grwn at a warehuse nearby instead f 1,000 miles away r mre frm a city. That means many transprtatin miles are saved. which can reduce millins f tns f greenhuse gases every year and the price f fruits and vegetables will als g dwn. Imprted (进口的) fruits and vegetables are mre expensive, s pr peple in sciety are at an extreme disadvantage. Vertical farms culd cpe with this prblem.
Als, Plenty’s farms grw rganic fd withut using herbicides (除草剂) r pesticides. They recycle all the water used, even catching the water in the air. The best farm in San Francisc is using 100% renewable energy.
Mrever, all the packaging is 100% recyclable, made f recycled plastic and specially designed tg keep the fd fresh lnger t reduce fd waste. Ideally, the cmpany will branch ut, pening farms acrss the cuntry and beynd.
32. What can we learn frm the first tw paragraphs?
A. Rbts and AI used n vertical farms can quicken the grwth f plants.
B. Fruits and vegetables grwn n vertical farms are mre tasty.
C. Bth land and water can be saved n vertical farms.
D. Plenty is the first cmpany t grw crps n vertical farms.
33. What dcs the underlined phrase “cpe with” in paragraph 4 mean?
A Register.B. Imprve.C. Present. D. Slve
34. What can we infer abut Plenty’s future vertical farms frm the text?
A. They will have mre farms.B. They will nly be run by rbts and AI.
C. They will bring abut terrible prblems. D. They will cmpletely take the place f flat farms.
35. What is the main purpse f the text?
A. T questin the pssibility f vertical farming
B. T shw the technlgies f vertical farming.
C. T discuss the ptential prblems f vertical farming
D. T intrduce and explain the benefits f vertical farming.

I practiced and practiced. Sn I 51 the rules and the “mves”. Being part f a team was fun and mtivating. Very nn the cmpetitive 52 in me was winning ver my lack f cnfidence. With time, I learmed 53 t play and made friends in the prcess — friends wh respected my effrts t wrk hard and be a team player. I never had s much fun?

I was brn in a pr cmmunity n the nrth side f Bstn, US, raised by a single mther wh didn’t finish 3rd grade, lived each day n fd stamps (券) and attended what the media called “the mst dysfunctinal (功能失调的) public schl district”. Nt many peple expected much f me, s I had t expect smething f myself.
On my 13th birthday, I bught a pster f Harvard t hang in my rm. Being at Harvard became what I dreamt abut. Even if my electricity was cut ff, I still wke up at 5:30, because I knew that my pster f Harvard was still hanging nly tw feet away frm me.
Reminding myself f my gal each day made it easy t say n t the same chices I saw my peers making, because thse paths wuldn’t have had me clser t my gal. Being pr culd nt take away my pwer t decide what I chse t d with my day. The pster gave me the curage t cld email abut 50 Harvard students s I culd ask fr feedback n my applicatin essays: it gave me the energy t study just ne mre hur n my SATs when my friends were asleep; and it gave me the determinatin t submit just ne mre schlarship applicatin when 180 thers had already turned me dwn.
Every day, I culd feel myself getting clser and clser t my gal as my writing gt better, my SAT scre increased, and my schlarship checks started cming in. Finally, an email arrived frm Harvard. The first wrd was “Cngratulatins!” A mnth later, Harvard flew me up t visit the campus where fr the first time I stepped nt my dreaming land.

Plenty, an agricultural technlgy cmpany in San Francisc, is reinventing farms and farming. Nater Strye, the cmpany’s chief science fficer says the future f the farms will be vertical (系直的) and indrs, s fd can be grwn anywhere in the wrld all year rund, and farms will emply rbts and artificial intelligence (AI) t imprve the quality f grwth fr fruits and vegetables. Plenty des all thse things but uses 95% less water and 99% less land.
As AI is n the rise, farmers n flat farms have been using new tls t make farming better r easier. In recent years, they have been using drnes (无人机) and rbts t imprve efficiency. Hwever. flat farms still use a lt f water and land, while a Plenty’s vertical farm can prduce the same quantity f fruits and vegetables as a 720-acre flat farm, but n nly 2 acres
Plenty’s climate-cntrlled indr farm has rws f plants grwing vertically. There are LED lights shining n them, rbts mving them arund, and AI managing all the variables f water, temperature, and light. The cnditins are s gd that the prductin per acre is 400 times higher than that f an utdr farm.
Anther advantage f vertical farming is that the fruits and vegetables are grwn at a warehuse nearby instead f 1,000 miles away r mre frm a city. That means many transprtatin miles are saved. which can reduce millins f tns f greenhuse gases every year and the price f fruits and vegetables will als g dwn. Imprted (进口的) fruits and vegetables are mre expensive, s pr peple in sciety are at an extreme disadvantage. Vertical farms culd cpe with this prblem.
Als, Plenty’s farms grw rganic fd withut using herbicides (除草剂) r pesticides. They recycle all the water used, even catching the water in the air. The best farm in San Francisc is using 100% renewable energy.
Mrever, all the packaging is 100% recyclable, made f recycled plastic and specially designed tg keep the fd fresh lnger t reduce fd waste. Ideally, the cmpany will branch ut, pening farms acrss the cuntry and beynd.
32. What can we learn frm the first tw paragraphs?
A. Rbts and AI used n vertical farms can quicken the grwth f plants.
B. Fruits and vegetables grwn n vertical farms are mre tasty.
C. Bth land and water can be saved n vertical farms.
D. Plenty is the first cmpany t grw crps n vertical farms.
33. What dcs the underlined phrase “cpe with” in paragraph 4 mean?
A Register.B. Imprve.C. Present. D. Slve
34. What can we infer abut Plenty’s future vertical farms frm the text?
A. They will have mre farms.B. They will nly be run by rbts and AI.
C. They will bring abut terrible prblems. D. They will cmpletely take the place f flat farms.
35. What is the main purpse f the text?
A. T questin the pssibility f vertical farming
B. T shw the technlgies f vertical farming.
