The UK Gvernment has annunced plans t build eight nuclear pwer reactrs as part f its new energy strategy.
By 2030, the Gvernment wants 95%f the UK’s electricity t cme frm lw-carbn energy surces. Carbn dixide is a greenhuse gas that is released frm the burning f fssil fuels (cal, il and gas). It is a big cause f climate change- lng-term shifts in weather patterns, including rising temperatures.

I accidentally fund a time capsule, in purple and green flss (丝线) in the midst f srting ut sme ld things last mnth. Faded and wrn, it was a friendship bracelet (手链)—an imprtant part f my teenage summers. Hlding it in my hand made me think abut thse precius memries f childhd, which my kids will never knw firsthand.
My handiwrk wasn’t beautiful. But what I remember is the beauty f the ffering: slipping smething int a friend’s hand and knwing it wuld always be with them. The experience was intxicating—like the serius business f exchanging wedding rings, it was a symbl f an unbreakable bnd. Thse bracelets represented hw much we meant t each ther, at a time when ur friends were becming the center f ur lives.
I slept with my bracelets and shwered with them. I wre them all summer lng at camp. And I acquired new bracelets frm friends there—friends wh received carefully crafted bracelets frm me in return, as we said ur tearful end-f-summer gdbyes. I thught having them helped ease the pain f leaving my friends. But nw I see that they were really helping me t leave behind childhd.
My kids dn’t g t summer camp. They certainly dn’t exchange anything as uncl as bracelets with their friends. They hang ut n Discrd (一种聊天工具) in chats that nly pause but never end. Our eldest sn endlessly texts n his cellphne as he and his friends make ne anther talking emjis and TikTk vides.
Their relatinships with their phnes leave n time r space fr writing letters r making bracelets, and their gifts t ne anther leave n clear and definite traces. There will be n bxes f letters t srt years frm nw nr any hidden bracelets t find. They will have little t physically hld n t.
8. Why des the authr cmpare a bracelet t a time capsule?
A. It is faded and wrn.
B. It is shaped like a capsule.
C. It reminds her f her childhd.
D. It was made by the authr herself.
9. Which f the fllwing wrds can best replace the underlined wrd “intxicating” in Paragraph 2?
A. Exciting.B. Terrible.
C. Prfessinal.D. Strange.
10. Why des the authr think her kids’ childhd is different frm hers?
A. They spend t much time n their cellphnes.
B. They make mre friends at summer camp.
C. They are unwilling t give bracelets t parents.
D. They ften send hand-made gifts t their friends.
11. What can be implied abut the friendship bracelets?
A. They prved the authr’s kids had much t physically hld n t.
B. They gave meaning t the authr’s childhd in a way her kids will never knw.
C. They represented bth the authr and her kids’ unfrgettable childhd.

The Best Way t Enjy a Bk
I am n slw eater. I can’t remember the number f times I was tld as a child nt t gbble my fd. Nr have I been a slw reader. I went thrugh bks like cmbine harvesters thrugh crps in the English village f my childhd.
Perhaps I will cntinue t gbble my fd until my last meal n this planet. But bks! They are an entirely different matter. Having been prevented frm visiting bkstres and libraries during these days f islatin. I have decided t make changes. After all, didn’t smene nce say, “It’s an ill wind that blws nbdy any gd.”
I imagine slw reading t be like slw cking: a variety f ingredients mixed int smething ne can truly enjy. Slw reading means enjying each sentence, absrbing all f thse paragraphs f descriptin that had prbably been sweated ver by the authr and, mre ften than nt, skipped ver by readers like me.
This isn’t t say I pay nly randm attentin t a bk. Befre deciding n ne t buy r brrw, I always read the synpsis and the “Abut the Authr” sectin. I wuld als read the dedicatin, the frewrd and the authr’s acknwledgments. Only then d I mve n t the bk’s pening sentence. This is essentially hw I had selected the tw bks that I mst recently finished.
In rder t truly enjy these tw nvels, I ratined my reading t tw hurs a day-n mre and n less. A funny thing happens when yu take tw hurs ut f the day - every day – fr smething yu really, really enjy. I experienced a quiet sense f accmplishment that I had missed fr years.
English writer Kate Atkinsn’s Transcriptin has been advertised as “a nvel f rare depth frm ne f the best writers f ur time.” Award-winning Newfundler Michael Crummey’s The Inncents, meanwhile, is said t be “a richly imagined and fascinating stry f hardship and survival.” I am glad I didn’t read Transcriptin at my usual pace. I suspect I wuld have missed much f the brilliance f the writing. Instead, I made myself cmpletely invlved in the life f 18-year-ld Julie. I ften paused at the end f a chapter t reread it fr the jy f laughing alud at the herine’ bservatins.
The Inncents is abut the life f tw rphans in an islated bay in Newfundland. It was hard nt t run thrugh this pwerful narrative—but I resisted the temptatin. My patience was rewarded with a deeper understanding f the character and rich descriptin f nrthern Newfundland— s real that I culd almst feel the lichen (地衣) between my tes.
S here I am, tw bks finished that tk me a mnth t read. I have been entertained, enriched and transprted in time and place like I never have befre. Having discvered the jys f taking my time ver a bk nw, I dubt I will ever again annunce prudly, “It nly tk me a day r a cuple f hurs t finish!”
12. Accrding t the article, the authr used t ______.
A. read nvels while gbbling her fd.
B. spend n mre than tw hurs reading every day.
C. cnsider it a waste f time t read fictinal stries.
D finish reading a bk in a day r even a cuple f hurs.
13. The underlined prverb “It’s an ill wind that blws nbdy any gd,” prbably means ______.
A. even the craziest ideas can becme ppular.
B. even the mst ppular ideas can g ut f fashin.
C. even the mst psitive situatins can harm smene.
D. even the mst negative situatins can benefit smene.
14. The authr cmpared reading t cking in rder t illustrate that ______.
A. it is fun t read bk related t fd.
B. it is rewarding t pick up varius types f bks.
C. it is wrthwhile t appreciate the brilliance f every sentence.
D. It is imprtant t read the synpsis befre deciding n a bk t read.
15. While reading The Inncents, the authr ______.
A. imagined herself t be an rphan.
B. ended up with a deep appreciatin f the stry.
C. read thrugh the descriptive part f the bk quickly.
D. thught abut the relatinship between hardship and survival.
