21、   When I lived in France last year, my friends and I, decided to have a “friendsgiving” in November because we were so far away from our families. We decided to have the dinner at my friend Brigitte’s apartment in Paris. There was only one problem. It was difficult to get a turkey because French people don’t celebrate Thanksgiving. The day before our “friendsgiving” dinner, Brigitte and I went to four different markets to look for a turkey. It took us five hours, but we finally found one. We were so excited!

The next day, everyone brought different foods from their home country to share. There was Moroccan (摩洛哥的) food, Italian food, German food, and of course French food. While we waited for the turkey to cook, we played cards and told stories. That’s when we heard a loud BANG! We all ran to the kitchen. There was water everywhere. The water pipes under Brigitte’s kitchen sink were broken. The kitchen was filling with water very fast.

“Jack, you all grab the food and run to the roof (屋顶)!” Brigitte yelled. We took all the food, plates, drinks and silverware and ran to the roof. Brigitte ran outside to turn off the water. That’s when we realized the turkey was still in the oven. We ran to the flooded kitchen, grabbed some gloves, and pulled the turkey out of the oven.

In the end, we all had an amazing “friendsgiving” dinner on a Parisian rooftop with all of our good friends. The turkey was a little darker and “crispy” but still delicious.

23、Gardens come in all shapes and sizes. 【1】 But with a little planning and a few tips, you’ll be growing in no time.

One of the most important things to remember when planning a garden is to grow what you love. This way, you’ll be sure to enjoy the process. You can grow vegetables. If you don’t like vegetables, try fruits or flowers. You can grow a garden to feed yourself, your neighbors, and a family that’s going through a hard time. 【2】 Find your interest.

Once you decide what type of garden you’d like to start, you’ll need to plan a few things before getting to work. 【3】 Find a place that is fairly flat and gets good sunlight. After that, it is necessary to pick the right soil. An expert at a gardening store can advise you on the best soil for your needs.

After you have the correct soil, choose your plants. Will you start with seeds or young plants? Growing from seeds is often less expensive. And it’s more satisfying, because you have a chance to watch the growth from seed to plant. 【4】 There’s a better possibility your plant will survive the environment condition to produce.

【5】 I suggest planting right before the start of the growing season so the plants can adapt to the soil. You’ll see them start to produce sooner.

24、One overlooked benefit of lab-grown food is that it may help the UK deal with the crisis in housing affordability. As farming is replaced by precision fermentation (发酵) , the significant amount of land currently used for livestock farming(including parts of the green belt) will be freed up for development in places that people actually want to live.

However, we’d take a different lesson from the promise of lab-grown meat. Free-market environmentalism and harnessing the power of innovative technologies — supported by market-based measures like a border-adjusted carbon tax — can successfully tackle the problem of man-made climate change without fundamentally uprooting the way we run society. Saving the planet doesn’t have to cost us the earth.

It is important to acknowledge that certain types of livestock farming may have issues with sustainability and climate change. But it is not true of all farming systems; and the issues that do exist are being dealt with using the latest research into genetics and biotechnology-for example, recent research has shown that certain types of seaweed can reduce methane emissions from cattle to close to zero.

Farmer data also shows that increased sales of milks have not seen a corresponding reduction in dairy sales.

The global food system, consumer choices and climate change are incredibly complex issues, and anyone who proposes simple solutions is almost certainly not in possession of all the relevant facts and data. Livestock are an important part of humanity’s future food needs.

【1】Why does lab-grown food help Britain to solve the housing affordability crisis?

A．As farming is replaced by precision fermentation, the level of agricultural development is improved.

B．The significant amount of green belts are used for development in places that people actually want to live.

C．Lab-grown food is more environmentally friendly and beneficial to human health.

D．A large amount of land used for livestock farming will be freed up for residence.

【2】What lessons have learned from the promise of lab-grown meat?

A．Free-market environmentalism can change the way society operates.

B．Adjusting carbon tax can successfully solve the problem of climate change.

C．Adopting the power of innovative technologies is useful for saving the earth.

D．Saving the earth requires changing the way society operates.

【3】Which of the following best explains “harnessing” underlined in paragraph 2?

A．obtain

B．exploit

C．inherit

D．develop

【4】It can be inferred from this passage that .

A．global food issue is so complex that there are no complete research data.

B．sustainability and climate change are common problems in agricultural systems.

C．some kinds of seaweed can make the amount of methane emitted by cattle ineffective.

D．the sales of substitute dairy products increased, and the sales of dairy products decreased accordingly.
