26、LONDON (Reuters) – Organic fruit, delivered right to the doorstep. That is what Gabriel Gold prefers, and he is willing to pay for it. If this is not possible, the 26-year-old computer technician will spend the extra money at the supermarket buying organic food.
“Organic product is always better,” Gold said. “The food is free of pesticides(杀虫剂), and you are generally supporting family farms instead of large farms. And more often than not it is locally grown and seasonal, so it is tasty.” Gold is one of the growing number of shoppers buying into the organic trend, and supermarkets across Britain are depending on more like him as they grow their organic food business. But how many shoppers really know what they are getting, and why are they willing to pay a higher price for organic product? Market research shows that Gold and others who buy organic food can generally give clear reasons for their preferences— but their knowledge of organic food is far from complete. For example, small amounts of pesticides can be used on organic product. And about three quarters of organic food in Britain is not local but imported to meet growing demand.” The demand for organic food is increasing by about one third every year, so it is a very fast-growing market,” said Sue Flock, a specialist in this line of business.
【1】More and more people in Britain are buying organic food because__________.
A.they are getting richer.
B.they can get the food anywhere.
C.they consider the food free of pollution.
D.they like home-grown fruit.
【2】Which of the following statements is TRUE about most organic product sold in Britain?
A.It grows indoors throughout the year.
B.It is produced outside Britain.
C.It is grown on family farms.
D.It is produced on large farms.
【3】What is the meaning of the underlined words “the organic trend” in the second paragraph?
A.Growing interest in organic food.
B.Better quality of organic food
C.Rising market for organic food.
D.Higher prices of organic food.
【4】What is the best title for this news story?
A.Good qualities of organic food.
B.The making of organic food in Britain.
C.Organic food— to import or not?
D.Organic food—healthy, or just for the wealthy?
27、 Many students think about how to best spend their time while studying, But what comes before study sessions can be important too-especially if you want to improve your memory of what you have learned. There are some useful, no-cost things you can do before you study to improve your memory and learning.
Before you study, doing cardiovascular exercise (有氧运动) may help you better remember what you learn. In a 2018 study, published in the journal Physiology and Behavior, researchers found that a group of young people who did 15 minutes of cardiovascular exercise remembered more words. Some studies have also shown cardiovascular exercise can help improve the memories of older people.
Location is also important for improving your learning. Some research suggests that changing where you study could help you remember more of what you study. Our memories sometimes depend on things in our environment. Researchers found that environmental context played a big part in how well people remembered words. The researchers noted that subjects who learned from a list remembered an average of 15.9 words, while subjects who learned in two different contexts remembered an average of 24.4 words.
Another way you can improve your study session is taking a pre-study test. Students often consider the test the final step to show how much they have learned. But, students need to test themselves often. Testing is one of the best ways to make yourself remember new information. In 2018, researchers found that students who took a test before learning new material did much better after studying the material. The students failed on the tests, but they were better able to remember the material than students who were only asked to read the information.
【1】What’s the author’s purpose in writing the text?
A.To tell you doing exercise is good for health.
B.To introduce some good ways to deal with a test.
C.To teach you how to best spend time while studying.
D.To introduce several ways to do before study to improve your memory.
【2】According to Paragraph3, how can we remember more words?
A.By studying in the same environment. B.By studying in different contexts.
C.By reading aloud when remembering words. D.By remembering the things in our environment.
【3】What can we learn from the studies in 2018?
A.The students who took a test after studying the material did much better.
B.The students failed on the tests for they didn’t take a test before leaning.
C.Cardiovascular exercise helps improve the memories of both the young and the old.
D.Young people doing cardiovascular exercise remembered more words than older people.

28、 Guana was born from a family with 7 children. His parents had two jobs to make ends meet and struggled to pay for basic expenses. Guana was once a cleaner at a school but now he is a superintendent(教育学监), leading the Byron Union School District in rural northern California.
Guana always remembers when he wanted to give up, someone would encourage him. One was the cleaner at his school when he was a boy. He called her “Nike” because she wore Nike shoes. Guana wanted those kinds of shoes, too, but his parents could not afford them. Young Gauna liked how Nike made everything so clean. He told her he wanted to be a cleaner, too. Nike said, “it’s good if you want to be a cleaner, but make sure that you go to college and make this as one of your steps there.”
Guana also looked up to the principal(校长), the leader at his school. He was a tall, friendly and good-looking man. He told Guana about his job helping students and teachers. And he said, “Well, if you don’t give up, you’ll get there.” Guana did get there, and two men remain friends. But before Guana became a school principal, he followed in Nike’s footsteps and become a cleaner. He worked for three schools in Lodi, California, which helped him earn the money needed for his first two years of college. He earned a high-level university education and gained a doctor’s degree. Then he worked as a campus safety officer, teacher, counselor, administrator, and now superintendent.
Even though Guana has had a successful career, he never forgets where he came from, or how he felt. He uses his life experiences to guide him as a leader.
For example, Guana’s younger sister needs a wheelchair to get around. To this day, her disability(残疾) helps him as a school administrator to help and support special children. In Guana’s school system today, everyone is important and invited to parties and events.

29、To Friend or Not to Friend
We all love our parents and turn to them when we're in need, but would you like them to hear the conversations you have with your friends on the school playground or lunch queue? Social networking sites have become extensions of the school hallways, so would you add your parents as "friends” and allow them to view your online activities and conversations with friends?
In the past the generation gap included a technology gap, where children were up to date with latest technology and parents were left behind, content to continue their day to day lives as they always had because they had no need to know more about technology. However, more and more parents are beginning to realize just how important social networks are in their lives. This realization has given many parents the motivation to educate themselves about social networking sites.
These days many people are attracted to social networking sites because they can choose who they have around them; there's also a certain amount of control over privacy that we don't get in real life. Sometimes we feel that privacy is violated when we must accept a "friend" request from a parent or family member.
It's a difficult choice whether or not to allow a parent to become a part of our online lives. On the one hand we don't want to "reject" their request because that might hurt their feelings or make them feel you have something to hide. On the other hand if you do accept, then you could have a sense of being watched and no longer feel free to comment or communicate the way you did before.
A recent survey suggested that parents shouldn't take it personally if their child ignores their request: "When a teen ignores a parent's friend request, it doesn't necessarily mean that they are hiding something, but it could mean that this is one part of their life where they want to be independent." Perhaps talking with parents and giving explanations would help soften the blow if you do choose not to add them to your friends list.
【1】From Paragraph 2, we learn that
A.parents feel secure about the privacy online
B.social networks successfully fill the generation gap
C.parents have realized the importance of social networks
D.social networks offer a platform for parents to communicate
【2】Teenagers may refuse a parent's friend request because .
A.they hide something from their parents
B.they are unwilling to be watched by parents
C.their parents tend to fall behind in technology
D.their parents make negative comoments on them
【3】The passage is mainly about
A.parents* friend requests
B.social networks
C.privacy online
D.the generation gap
【4】The passage is written mainly for
A.teachers
B.parents
C.teenagers
D.researchers

Samuel Langhorne Clemens (November 30, 1835-April 21, 1910), better known by his pen name Mark Twain, was an American author and humorist. Twain grew up in Hannibal, Missouri, which provided the 【1】 for Huckleberry Finn and Tom Sawyer. After an apprenticeship with a printer, he worked as a typesetter and 【2】 articles to the newspaper of his older brother, Orion Clemens. He later became a riverboat pilot on the Mississippi River before heading west to join Orion in Nevada. He referred humorously to his singular lack of success at mining, turning to journalism for the Virginia City Territorial Enterprise. In 1865, his 【3】 story The Celebrated Jumping Frog of Calaveras spent some time as a miner. The short story brought international attention, and was even translated into 【4】 Greek. His wit and satire, in prose and in speech, earned 【5】 from critics and peers, and he was a friend to presidents, artists, industrialists, and European royalty.
Though Twain earned a great deal of money from his writings and lectures, he 【6】 in ventures that lost a great deal of money, notably the Paige Compositor, a mechanical typesetter, which failed because of its 【7】 and imprecision. Following these financial setbacks, he filed for protection from his creditors via bankruptcy, and with the help of Henry Huttleston Rogers 【8】 overcame his financial troubles. Twain chose to pay all his pre-bankruptcy creditors in full, though he had no legal responsibility to do so.
Twain was born 【9】 after a visit by Halley’s Comet, and he predicted that he would go out with it, too. He died the day after the comet returned. He 【10】 himself as the “greatest American humorist of his age”, and William Faulkner called Twain “the father of American literature”.
