27、Plant-based foods are good sources of healthy nutrients. These include different types of dietary fibre, vitamins, minerals, and a range of “phytonutrients”, which plants produce to help them grow or protect them from diseases and pests.
A review of research published in May 2021 found those who ate the most plant foods were less likely to die from any cause over follow-up time periods that varied across the studies from 5 to 25 years, compared to those who ate the least.
Tomatoes are a fruit. They’re rich in vitamin C and “lycopene”, which is a carotenoid. Carotenoids are pigments produced by plants and give vegetables their bright colours.
A review of six trials asked people to consume tomato products equivalent to 1 — 1.5 large tomatoes or 1 —1.5 cups of tomato juice daily for about six weeks. The researchers found people who did this had reduced blood levels of triglycerides (a type of fat in your blood that increases heart disease risk), as well as lower total and “bad” cholesterol levels, compared to those who didn’t have any tomatoes.
Another review of 11 studies tested the effect of tomatoes and lycopene on blood pressure. Researchers found consuming any tomato products led to a large decrease in systolic blood pressure (the first number that measures the pressure at which the heart pumps blood). However, there was no effect on the diastolic pressure (the second number which is the pressure in the heart when it relaxes). In the group who had high blood pressure to begin with, both systolic and diastolic blood pressure decreased after eating tomato products compared to placebos.
A review of studies included a total of 260, 000 men and found those with the highest intakes of cooked tomatoes, tomato sauces and tomato-based foods had a 15 — 20% lower risk of developing cancer compared to those with the lowest tomato intakes. Keep in mind connection doesn’t necessarily mean cause and effect, though.

28、When Nancy Flexer opened the door to her classroom near the end of her final school year, all 41 years of her career as a beloved first-grade teacher came to life right in front of her.
Cole Elementary School in Tennessee surprised Flexer with a memorable and emotional retirement party featuring former students of all ages, dating back to the first class she taught in the 1973-74 school year. A video of the event shows an overwhelmed Flexer being moved to tears as she hears former students who are now adults tell her how much she affected their lives.
"I'm one of the luckiest people in this world," Flexer said. "I remember I opened the door to the classroom thinking no one was in there, and it was wall-to-wall people and banners and everything. It was the coolest thing that could've ever happened in my life. How many times do we really realize the lives we've touched, the manner in which we've touched them, and that these are memories that stay with them for life?"
Despite being young when they were taught by Flexer, students easily recalled the heartwarming notes she wrote them on report cards, the ways she helped them overcome shyness and awkwardness, and how she inspired them to future academic success to earn scholarships and advanced degrees.
Even though Flexer hadn't seen some of the former students for decades, she instantly remembered the names of every single one there.
A scrapbook(剪贴簿) of her career was presented to her as one student after another recalled the effect Flexer had on his or her life.
“I’ve had many opportunities to move to a school closer to my home, but I said ‘Cole gave me so much in my life that when I retire, I will retire from Cole school and give back what’s been given to me.” Flexer said. “My career could’ve taken me nowhere that would have made me happier. I think of it as a blessing.”
【1】We learn from the text that the retirement party__________.
A. was beyond Flexer’s expectations
B. attracted many of Flexer’s friends
C. was full of appreciative parents
D. was organized by Flexer’s students
【2】Flexer’s former students ___________.
A. helped her overcome her shyness

B. Flexer once studied in Cole Elementary School
C. Flexer loved her teaching career in Cole
D. Flexer refused many other school’s invitations
【4】What would be the best title for the text?

C. Students’ memories of their beloved teacher
D. Students fro 41 years surprise their beloved teacher
29、It’s an attractive idea: by playing online problem-solving, matching and other games for a few minutes a day, people can improve such mental abilities as reasoning, verbal (语言的) skills and memory. But whether these games deliver on those promises is up for debate.
This year, in perhaps the biggest real-world test of these programs, neuroscientists (神 经学家) at Canada’s Western University gathered 8, 563 volunteers globally through Cambridge Brain Sciences, a Toronto-based company that provides assessments to measure healthy brain function. Participants filled out an online question form about their training habits, opinions about training benefits and which, if any, program they used. Some 1, 009 participants reported using brain training programs for about eight months, on average, though the length of time ranged from two weeks to more than five years.
Next, the volunteers completed 12 mental tests about memory, reasoning and verbal skills. When researchers looked at the results, they saw that brain trainees on average had no mental edge over the other group in memory, verbal skills and reasoning. Even among those who had used training programs for at least 18 months, brain training didn’t boost thinking abilities above the level of people who didn’t use the programs.
“No matter how we dealt with the data, we were unable to find any evidence that brain training was associated with mental abilities,” says a researcher. That held true whether the team analyzed participants by age, program used, education or economic situation - all were similar to the group who didn’t use the programs. However, brain training may be beneficial when it is connected with real problems in life, researchers say. The real world may be the best brain trainer. They suggest that we practice those skills in different real-life situations. “That’s a much better use of one’s time than sitting at a computer and doing little tasks.”
【1】How were the 1, 009 test participants different from the others?
A.They completed more mental tests.
B.They showed better mental abilities.
C.They filled an online question form.
D.They had brain training experiences.
【2】Which of the following best replaces the underlined word “edge” in paragraph 3?
A.Advantage.
B.Power.
C.Illness.
D.Control.
【3】What do the researchers suggest about brain training?
A.It should provide scientific data.
B.It should promote online programs.
C.It should settle problems in life.
D.It should benefit more researchers.
【4】Which of the following is the best title of the text?
A.Debate Raised after Research?
B.Online Games Boost Brainpower?
C.Biggest Real-world Test Ever?
D.New Method for Brain Training?

In January, eight gorillas (大猩猩) at the San Diego Zoo Safari Park, in California, became the first great apes to test positive (阳性的) for COVID-19. “There was an immediate concern,” said Nadine Lamberski, the chief 【1】 (保护) and wildlife health officer at the San Diego Zoo Wildlife Alliance. “We want to 【2】 (尽我们的职责) and take all measures to make sure that won’t happen again.”
