My childhd was a painted picture f sunny sky and rlling green fields stretching t the hrizn. It tasted f sharp berries and smelt f sur grapes. My family lived in a cabin(小木屋) in the cuntryside but I lived in my mther’s arms. They were s delicate but strng, her red hair falling arund me like a curtain separating me frm the wrld.
Childhd was simple. The brders f my village were the furthest my trubles went and mnsters nly lived in the pages f bks. Every day was a waking dream f running races and muddy knees. My village was archaic, dying cabins husing dying farmers with dying traditins. There weren’t many children but me and the ther bys; bys f butchers and sellers frmed ur wn grup.
They called us wild. I suppse we were. Trees and muntains frmed ur playgrunds and fights brke ut as easily as sudden laughter. Liberated frm the restrictins f sciety, we wuld bund int the wds, deeper and deeper until we fund a lake which, with a wild yell, we wuld jump int all at nce.
My mst vivid memries frm byhd center arund that lake. Water shne brightly and the sunds f ur screams brke int the utcry frm birds. The shck f cld water against sweating skin wuld wake every nerve in my bdy and my bare feet wuld hit the sinking muddy bttm. As we submerged(淹没)， time wuld suspend， mvements slwing as bubbles rse arund us.
I was drwning. I was living. I was living. I was drwning.
Fr timelessness r a secnd (bth felt the same), we wuld suspend, curl up, and then be frced back ut int breathing air.
We shuld have knwn that it wuldn’t last frever. Yet, even under the best circumstances, there’s smething s tragic abut grwing up: t have yur perspective n the peple and life arund yu change;t always struggle t reach a mirrr nly t find yurself tall enugh t see yur reflectin ne day. And find, a different persn staring back ut at yu.

Well, well, well. It lks like rbts are nw cming fr ur belved furry friends. Accrding t a new study, animal rbts may be just as effective, if nt better, at prviding therapeutic(治疗的) benefits t children as real pets. As smene wh has bth interacted with real dgs and rbts, I can tell yu that this is quite a bld claim.
Sure, rbts may have sme benefits ver real dgs. They can wrk fr lnger hurs and wn’t cause allergies(过敏) r pass n diseases. But can a rbt give yu that wet-nsed, slbber-filled experience that a real dg can? I think nt.
Nw, I’m nt saying that rbts dn’t have their place in therapy. In fact, I can see hw an animal rbt culd be helpful in certain situatins where a real dg might nt be pssible. But let’s nt g replacing all the gd bys and girls with rbts just yet.
As fr the study, it’s interesting t see that while the kids said they lved real-life dgs better, they actually spent mre time interacting with the rbt. I can nly imagine that it was ding sme pretty impressive tricks, sme rbts dance r rbt jkes maybe, t hld the kids’ attentin fr that lng.
In all seriusness, thugh, I d think it’s imprtant t cnsider the welfare f therapy dgs. Visiting hspitals can be stressful and tiring fr them.

Accrding t the Slar Energy Industry Assciatin the number f slar panels installed(安装)has grwn rapidly in the past decade, and it has t grw even faster t meet climate gals. But all f that grwth will take up a lt f space, and thugh mre and mre peple accept the cncept f slar energy, few like large slar panels t be installed near them.
Slar develpers want t put up panels as quickly and cheaply as pssible, s they haven’t given much thught t what they put under them. Often, they’ll end up filling the area with small stnes and using chemicals t cntrl weeds. The result is that many cmmunities, especially in farming regins, see slar farms as destryers f the sil.
“Slar prjects need t be gd neighbrs,” says Jrdan Macknick, the head f the Innvative Site Preparatin and Impact Reductins n the Envirnment(InSPIRE)prject. “They need t be prtectrs f the land and cntribute t the agricultural ecnmy.” InSPIRE is investigating practical appraches t “lw-impact” slar develpment, which fcuses n establishing and perating slar farms in a way that is kinder t the land. One f the easiest lw-impact slar strategies is prviding habitat fr pllinatrs(传粉昆虫).
Habitat lss pesticide use, and climate change have caused dramatic declines in pllinatr ppulatins ver the past cuple f decades, which has damaged the U.S. agricultural ecnmy. Over 28 states have passed laws related t pllinatr habitat prtectin and pesticide use. Cnservatin rganizatins put ut pllinatr-friendliness guidelines fr hme gardens, businesses, schls, cities—and nw there are guidelines fr slar farms.
Over the past few years, many slar farm develpers have transfrmed the space under their slar panels int a shelter fr varius kinds f pllinatrs, resulting in sil imprvement and carbn reductin. “These pllinatr-friendly slar farms can have a valuable impact n everything that’s ging n in the landscape,” says Macknick.
12. What d slar develpers ften ignre?
A. The decline in the demand fr slar energy.
B. The negative impact f installing slar panels.
C. The rising labr cst f building slar farms.
D. The mst recent advances in slar technlgy.
13. What des InSPIRE aim t d?
A. Imprve the prductivity f lcal farms.
B. Invent new methds fr cntrlling weeds.
C Make slar prjects envirnmentally friendly.
D. Prmte the use f slar energy in rural areas.
14. What is the purpse f the laws mentined in paragraph 4?
A. T cnserve pllinatrs.B. T restrict slar develpment.
C. T diversify the ecnmy.D. T ensure the supply f energy.
15. Which f the fllwing is the best title fr the text?
A. Pllinatrs: T Leave r t StayB. Slar Energy: Hpe fr the Future
C. InSPIRE: A Leader in AgricultureD. Slar Farms: A New Develpment

Slar develpers want t put up panels as quickly and cheaply as pssible, s they haven’t given much thught t what they put under them. Often, they’ll end up filling the area with small stnes and using chemicals t cntrl weeds. The result is that many cmmunities, especially in farming regins, see slar farms as destryers f the sil.
“Slar prjects need t be gd neighbrs,” says Jrdan Macknick, the head f the Innvative Site Preparatin and Impact Reductins n the Envirnment(InSPIRE)prject. “They need t be prtectrs f the land and cntribute t the agricultural ecnmy.” InSPIRE is investigating practical appraches t “lw-impact” slar develpment, which fcuses n establishing and perating slar farms in a way that is kinder t the land. One f the easiest lw-impact slar strategies is prviding habitat fr pllinatrs(传粉昆虫).
Habitat lss pesticide use, and climate change have caused dramatic declines in pllinatr ppulatins ver the past cuple f decades, which has damaged the U.S. agricultural ecnmy. Over 28 states have passed laws related t pllinatr habitat prtectin and pesticide use. Cnservatin rganizatins put ut pllinatr-friendliness guidelines fr hme gardens, businesses, schls, cities—and nw there are guidelines fr slar farms.
Over the past few years, many slar farm develpers have transfrmed the space under their slar panels int a shelter fr varius kinds f pllinatrs, resulting in sil imprvement and carbn reductin. “These pllinatr-friendly slar farms can have a valuable impact n everything that’s ging n in the landscape,” says Macknick.
