Scientists have calculated （计算） temperatures n Earth's surface during the last Ice Age. The researchers made their calculatins with the help f fssilized remains f cean planktn（海洋浮游生物化石遗迹） and mdels f climates tens f thusands f years ag in different parts f the wrld. The researchers reprted their findings in the British scientific publicatin Nature.
The mst recent Ice Age lasted frm abut 115,000 t 11,000 years ag. During this time, huge sheets f ice cvered much f Nrth America, Suth America, Eurpe and Asia.
"We have a lt f data abut this time perid because it has been studied fr s lng," said Jessica Tierney, a paleclimatlgist（古气候学家） with the University f Arizna, wh helped lead the study. "But ne questin science has lng wanted answers t is simple: Hw cld was the Ice Age?"
Accrding t the findings, the average Ice Age temperature wrldwide during this perid was abut 7.8 degrees Celsius（摄氏温度）. It was apprximately 6 degrees Celsius clder than the average tday.
Atmspheric carbn dixide levels during the Ice Age were abut 180 parts per millin, which is very lw, the researchers said. Befre the Industrial Revlutin f the 1800s, levels rse t abut 280 parts per millin. Tday they are abut 415 parts per millin.
The researchers annunced plans t use their temperature calculatin methds t recreate warm perids in Earth's histry. "If we can recnstruct past warm climates, then we can start t answer imprtant questins abut hw the Earth reacts t really high carbn dixide levels..." Tierney said. This can help scientists expand their understanding f what future climate change might bring.
Tierney said that lking at infrmatin frm past climates is the nly way t find ut what truly happens when the Earth experiences lng cld r warm perids. "S, by studying them, we can better restrict what t expect in the future."
24. This passage is mst likely t be taken frm ______.
A. a science magazine B. a travel website
C. children's bks C. a stry cllectin
25. What is the average wrld temperature tday, accrding t the scientists' calculatins?
A. Arund 8℃. B.6℃ r s. C. Rughly 7℃. D. Abut 14℃.
26. What can we expect f scientists' recnstructing past warm climates in the future?
A. Understanding the influences f climate change better.
B. Finding the reasns fr Ice Age Earth species disappearing.
C. Reducing Earth's atmspheric carbn dixide levels.
D. Answering questins abut "Hw cld was the Ice Age?"
27. Which f the fllwing can be the best title fr the text?
A. Ice Age Temperature Calculatin Methds
B. Earth's Past Warm Climates' Recnstructin
C. Atmspheric CO2 Levels during the Ice Age
D. Earth's Temperatures during the Ice Age

Slwly but surely, we're mving clser and clser t 5G wrld. Frm smart-hme security t self-driving cars, all the Internet-cnnected devices in yur life will be able t talk t each ther at lightning-fast speeds with reduced delay. Objectively speaking, the fastest 4G dwnlad speeds in the US tp ut at an average f 19.42 Mbps. But by cmparisn 5G prmises gigabit（千兆） speeds.
"5G is ne f thse signs, alng with artificial intelligence, f this cming data age," said Steve Kenig, senir directr f market research fr the Cnsumer Technlgy Assciatin. The self-driving vehicle is a great emblem f this data age, and that is t say, it is a sign f time, because with ne single task, driving, yu have massive amunts f data cming frm the vehicle itself, and a variety f sensrs are cllecting a lt f infrmatin t mdel its envirnment as it mves. It's pulling in data frm ther vehicles abut rad cnditins dwn the lane. It culd be weather infrmatin, but als cnnected infrastructure（基础设施）cnstructin. There's lts f data behind that task, which is why we need high speed.
Augmented reality glasses and virtual headset haven't yet brken the mainstream, but tech cmpanies are jyfully betting that these devices will eventually replace ur smartphnes. With 5G, that culd actually happen. This is ntable because cmpanies such as Apple are reprtedly develping AR glasses t assist ---r perhaps even replace --- smartphnes.
Ericssn stated at February's Mbile Wrld Cngress hw smart glasses culd becme faster and lighter with a 5G cnnectin, because instead f being weighed dwn with cmpnents, the glasses culd rely n hardware fr prcessing pwer.
But dn't get t excited. There's still a lt f wrk t be dne in the meantime including varius trials t make sure the radis play nicely with hardware and infrastructure cnstructin s 5G isn't cncentrated nly in big cities.
28. What des the authr want t stress in Paragraph 1?
A. The lightning-fast speed f SG. B. The expectatin f5G wrld.
C. The difference between 4G and 5G. D. The Internet-cnnected devices in ur life.
29. What des the underlined wrd "emblem" in Paragraph 2 mean?
A. Exhibitin. B. Success. C. Symbl. D. Explanatin.
30. We can infer frm the text that ______.
A.5G wrld wn't cme withut AR glasses
B.5G helps t create the artificial intelligence vehicle
C. Apple cmpany is develping AR glasses wrldwide
D. Tech cmpanies will face the fact that smartphnes may be replaced
31. What will the authr prbably tell us next?
A. Hw t fully expand 5G cverage.
B. Smart glasses will becme faster and lighter.
C. Why 5G isn't cncentrated in big cities.
D. The imprtance f infrastructure cnstructin.

When architect Duglas Cardinal was studying at the University f Texas many years ag, he used t drive t the cllege thrugh the Rcky Muntains frm his hme Alberta, Canada. "I was inspired by thse frms," Cardinal tld an American jurnalist. "They helped me realize architecture shuld cme frm the natural envirnment f a place."
While Canadians are familiar with Cardinal's highly riginal wrk, he is nt alne in taking inspiratin frm nature and preferring curves（曲线） t straight lines. As a key cntributr t an internatinal mvement knwn as rganic architecture, Cardinal has had his wrk and views presented in the bk New Organic Architecture: The Breaking Wave by British architect David Pearsn. In his bk, Pearsn expresses the meaning f rganic architecture with examples f amazing buildings by 30 architects frm 15 cuntries.
Fr example, in New Calednia, Italian architect Renzn Pian has designed a village inspired by native cttages and their relatinship t nature. In Palm Springs, Califrnia, American architect Kendrick Bangs Kellgg has created a desert huse that lks like a bird. The huse is earthquake-prf（抗震的） and stres the sun's heat, letting it ut at night.
"There's a grwing awareness f the need fr all architects t influence the envirnment as little as pssible," Pearsn said.“What is new is t link the newer envirnmental awareness t the passinate（充满热情地） design that can cme ut f lking at nature and its frms.”
"Organic architecture is rted in a passin fr life, nature and natural frms," Pearsn writes. "Its free-flwing curves and expressive frms are in agreement with the human bdy, mind, spirit. In a well-designed rganic building, we feel better and freer."
Cardinal has wn an award fr his new wrk. "There's a cuntless variety f frms in nature and I am cntinually inspired by bserving all these frms," says Cardinal.
32. What d we knw abut Cardinal?
A. He likes straight lines mre.
B. He failed t win an award fr his wrks.
C. He is less ppular in Canada than in America.
D. He made great effrts in the rganic architecture mvement.
33. What d buildings in Pearsn's bk have in cmmn?
A. They lk like birds. B. They are earthquake-prf.
C. They draw inspiratin frm nature. D. They can keep still in an earthquake.
34. What des Cardinal think f rganic architecture?
A. It needs further develpment.
B. It cmbines humanity with nature.
C. It fails t care abut the envirnment.
D. It fcuses mainly n its attractive appearance.
35. Which is the best title fr the text?
A. Influences f architecture n envirnment B. An inspiratinal architecture bk.
C. Amazing buildings inspired by nature. D. Cardinal and his rganic architecture.

Literacy（读写能力） changes the human brain. The prcess f learning t read changes ur brain, but s des what we read, hw we read and n what tpic we read. This is especially imprtant nwadays, when many peple are addicted t screens at any given mment.
We are still in the early stages f understanding the impact f digital-based learning n the develpment f children's reading brains. Transfrming new infrmatin int knwledge in the brain requires many cnnectins t abstract reasning skills.(36)______
Check yurself. D yu ften read the first line f a page and zig-zag t the bttm? Or read the first line, middle sectin and end?(37)______The cnsequences f these lsses are far-reaching, frm decreasing sympathy t critical analysis.
(38)______Yet they thught themselves better n screens because they were "faster". Mre than 80%f cllege educatrs see a "shallwing" effect by screens n their students' deeper understanding. Even three-year-lds appear less able t deal with mre abstract material when listening t stries n screens versus bks.
The reasns are multiple, but they are nt because deep reading is impssible n a screen. It is simply harder, because screens are assciated with distractin （分心）(39)______
The great challenge nw is t learn hw t use bth print and digital mediums t their best advantage fr all.(40)______Whether the bks are new r ld, wned r brrwed frm the library, desn't matter. What matters is that they are there, and that children are encuraged t read them: furthermre, bks --- nt digital devices --- shuld be the nly reading ptin in children's bedrms.
A. That in turn leads t less time allcated t abstract thught.
B. We must ensure that there are always bks next t children's digital devices.
C. Traditinal bks shuld have a central place in reading practices.
D. And thse cnnectins require the kinds f time and attentin ften absent in digital reading.
E. Digital reading can't cmpare with reading bks in print in many aspects.
F. What is lst lies between the lines: details in plt, the beauty f an authr's language.
G. Readers' cmprehensin is declining when they read n screens rather than print.

Dear friends,
I'm here t make sme prpsals, aiming t call n all f us nt t waste fd in ur campus. Students can be seen waste fd in the dining hall. They may rder t much fr their meals r they may feel the fd nt delicius r they may think it is a shame t take the fd away. They may frget the line f the famus pem, "Every grain n the plate cmes frm hard wrk" r actually dn't get its real meaning. S what shuld we d t stp this? First, we shuld rder a prper amunt f fd and nt be t picky abut fd. Besides, if we cannt eat all the fd we rder, take-it-away is a gd chice. Saving fd is everybdy's respnsibility. Let's start right nw!
