Simon Groot, a seed expert of the Netherlands, is credited with introducing high-quality, disease-resistant vegetable seeds to more than 60 countries including the Philippines, Thailand and Indonesia. He was awarded the World Food Prize on Monday.
Developing seeds has been the Groot family business for a long time. He is the sixth generation of, what is called, a seedsman. He began his search for better vegetable seeds to help farmers in Southeast Asia in 1981. When he was 47, his family’s company had just been taken over by a larger corporation.
Sixteen years earlier, he had made his first trip to Indonesia. There, Groot learned that vegetable seeds which were developed for the moderate climate of Europe, did poorly when planted in the hot tropics（热带地区）. He thought there was a great possibility of introducing hybrid（杂交的）vegetables to the area. The area lacked vegetable seed developers who were trying to create hybrids for the local climate.
“It was neither charity nor business. It was a passion for providing farmers all over the world with good seeds,” said Groot. Now 85, he said developing seeds has always concerned him, “I noticed the seed quality in that part of world was so much below our standards and below achievable standards.” He added that he “could not stand” that the farmers there did not have better seeds.
At the time, farmers in Southeast Asia usually saved seeds from season to season. That was because the seeds available for sale were often old. Those seeds were usually from Europe or North America and did not grow well in their tropical climate. This meant that the farmers ended up with smaller crops, and lower quality that changed greatly from season to season. The plants also could easily become infected with diseases.
Groot received the $250, 000 World Food Prize during an award ceremony at the Iowa Capitol.
4. What do we learn about Groot from Paragraph 2
A. He learned vegetable feeds did poorly in Europe.
B. He carried on a business of several generations.
C. He has introduced seeds to countries worldwide.
D. He turned his family’s company into a larger one.
5. What drove Groot to develop new vegetable seeds
A Doing charity. B. Making money.
C. Support from farmers. D. Sense of responsibility.
6. What was the challenge for farmers in Southeast Asia
A. Having no access to high-quality seeds.
B. Having no financial support for better seeds.
C. Lacking advanced technology for growing crops.
D. Failing to export their produce to western countries.
7. What is the best title for the text
A Business Has Been Passed from Generation to Generation
B. Vegetable Seeds for Hot Areas Have Been Created
C. Family Business Serves Farmers in Southeast Asia
D. World Food Prize Goes to Dutch Seed Developer
C
The technology research company International Data Corporation, or IDC, has predicted a huge surge in total worldwide data in the coming years. It predicted world data demand will grow from 33 zettabytes（泽字节）in 2018 to 175 zettabytes by 2025. The world is about to have a serious data-storage problem that will only become more severe over time.
Several companies say they are exploring a possible solution. They suggest using genetic material, DNA, to store data. Experts have estimated data stored by DNA systems could be one billion times as many as those held in traditional electronic devices of comparable size.
Information about living things is stored in DNA using four different kinds of molecules（分子）. They can be represented by the letter codes A, T, C and G. Researchers have discovered that data can also be stored within DNA in the sequences of these letters. Electronic devices, however, store information in a two-letter code that produces combinations of ones and zeroes.
In order to make DNA storage succeed, digital information has to be changed to DNA storage and then back to digital data. One company working on DNA storage development is Microsoft. The company announced earlier last year that it had shown the first “fully-automated” DNA storage system. The research team from Microsoft and the University of Washington reported it had successfully encoded the word “hello” in pieces of DNA and changed it back to digital data. A chemical process is used to get the DNA into a storage device.
Microsoft said DNA storage systems can not only store more data, but also hold data for much longer periods of time. For example, DNA samples from the ancient bones of animals and humans have proven that the material can last thousands of years in tough conditions.
Experts from the World Economic Forum have praised recent developments in DNA storage technologies. But the organization says much more work needs to be completed before DNA storage systems can effectively compete with electronic ones. Currently, the systems are costly and the processing time can be very long.
8. What docs the underlined word “surge” in Paragraph I mean
A. Loss. B. Exchange. C. Increase. D. Share.
9. What makes DNA have bigger storage ability
A. Its bigger size compared with electronic devices.
B. Its way of storing information in a four-letter code.
C. Its function of combining letters freely.
D. Its self-reproduction characteristics.
10. What is implied in Paragraph 4
A. Developing DNA storage needs support from big companies.
B. The DNA storage system has drawn worldwide attention.
C. The DNA storage system faces great challenges.
D. Using DNA to store data can possibly be a reality.
11. What can we learn from the text
A. Researchers need to perfect the systems greatly.
B. Experts are supportive of the electronic devices.
C. Experts are dissatisfied with the recent advance in the systems.
D. Researchers need financial support to develop the systems.
D
Analysis of the trial of the four-day working week has revealed great efficiency, reduced stress and increased staff engagement, fueling hopes that a better work-life balance for employees could be in sight.
Perpetual Guardian, a New Zealand financial services company, switched its 240 staff from a five-day to a four-day week and maintained their pay. Productivity increased in the four days when they worked, so there was no drop in the total amount of work done, a study of the trial released on Tuesday revealed. The trial was monitored by academics at the University of Auckland and the Auckland University of Technology. The eight-week experiment was closely watched by employers and policymakers around the world. “This is an idea whose time has come,” said Andrew Barnes, Perpetual Guardian’s founder. “We need to get more companies to give it a go.”
The government has conducted a study of the possibility of four-day weeks. However, research points to the complexity of achieving productivity gains in major industries such as retail(零售), where being present is a key part of the job. Smaller companies experimenting with four-day working weeks have found performance was better in the first few weeks as excitement about the project took hold, before falling slightly. “The biggest concern is ensuring that the full-time introduction of the policy doesn’t lead to self-satisfaction, as there is a risk that peopled productivity will slip back,” said Tammy Barker, a branch manager who was part of the trial. “Therefore, we’ve spent a lot of time making sure every person in every team has their own plan as to how they’re going to maintain and even improve productivity.”
According to Jarrod Haar, a professor of human resource management at the Auckland University of Technology, significantly lower job stress was reported with four-day working weeks. “Beyond wellbeing, employees reported their teams were stronger and functioned better together, more satisfied with their jobs, more engaged, and that they felt their work had greater meaning,” he said. “It is really a great way to make employees be more committed to the organization and less likely to look elsewhere for a job.”
12. What changes took place in Perpetual Guardian during the experiment
A. The length of daily working hours B. The amount of pay per week
C. The efficiency of the employees D. The work done per month
13. What does the government’ research on the four-day working week probably reveal
A. Some workers may become lazy. B. The policy doesn’t suit all industries.
C. The four-day working week won’t work. D. Many employers don’t approve of the trial.
14. How did Tammy Barker deal with the concern about the policy
A. By making plans for each of the employees.
B. By dividing all the employees into different teams.
C. By helping every employee get satisfaction from the work.
D. By encouraging every employee to be responsible for their plan.
15. What’s Jarrod Haar’s attitude towards the four-day working week
A. Unclear. B. Concerned. C. Approving. D. Negative.

Simon Groot, a seed expert of the Netherlands, is credited with introducing high-quality, disease-resistant vegetable seeds to more than 60 countries including the Philippines, Thailand and Indonesia. He was awarded the World Food Prize on Monday.
Developing seeds has been the Groot family business for a long time. He is the sixth generation of, what is called, a seedsman. He began his search for better vegetable seeds to help farmers in Southeast Asia in 1981. When he was 47, his family’s company had just been taken over by a larger corporation.
Sixteen years earlier, he had made his first trip to Indonesia. There, Groot learned that vegetable seeds which were developed for the moderate climate of Europe, did poorly when planted in the hot tropics（热带地区）. He thought there was a great possibility of introducing hybrid（杂交的）vegetables to the area. The area lacked vegetable seed developers who were trying to create hybrids for the local climate.
“It was neither charity nor business. It was a passion for providing farmers all over the world with good seeds,” said Groot. Now 85, he said developing seeds has always concerned him, “I noticed the seed quality in that part of world was so much below our standards and below achievable standards.” He added that he “could not stand” that the farmers there did not have better seeds.
At the time, farmers in Southeast Asia usually saved seeds from season to season. That was because the seeds available for sale were often old. Those seeds were usually from Europe or North America and did not grow well in their tropical climate. This meant that the farmers ended up with smaller crops, and lower quality that changed greatly from season to season. The plants also could easily become infected with diseases.
Groot received the $250, 000 World Food Prize during an award ceremony at the Iowa Capitol.

The technology research company International Data Corporation, or IDC, has predicted a huge surge in total worldwide data in the coming years. It predicted world data demand will grow from 33 zettabytes（泽字节）in 2018 to 175 zettabytes by 2025. The world is about to have a serious data-storage problem that will only become more severe over time.
Several companies say they are exploring a possible solution. They suggest using genetic material, DNA, to store data. Experts have estimated data stored by DNA systems could be one billion times as many as those held in traditional electronic devices of comparable size.
Information about living things is stored in DNA using four different kinds of molecules（分子）. They can be represented by the letter codes A, T, C and G. Researchers have discovered that data can also be stored within DNA in the sequences of these letters. Electronic devices, however, store information in a two-letter code that produces combinations of ones and zeroes.
In order to make DNA storage succeed, digital information has to be changed to DNA storage and then back to digital data. One company working on DNA storage development is Microsoft. The company announced earlier last year that it had shown the first “fully-automated” DNA storage system. The research team from Microsoft and the University of Washington reported it had successfully encoded the word “hello” in pieces of DNA and changed it back to digital data. A chemical process is used to get the DNA into a storage device.
Microsoft said DNA storage systems can not only store more data, but also hold data for much longer periods of time. For example, DNA samples from the ancient bones of animals and humans have proven that the material can last thousands of years in tough conditions.
Experts from the World Economic Forum have praised recent developments in DNA storage technologies. But the organization says much more work needs to be completed before DNA storage systems can effectively compete with electronic ones. Currently, the systems are costly and the processing time can be very long.
8. What docs the underlined word “surge” in Paragraph I mean
A. Loss. B. Exchange. C. Increase. D. Share.
9. What makes DNA have bigger storage ability
A. Its bigger size compared with electronic devices.
B. Its way of storing information in a four-letter code.
C. Its function of combining letters freely.
D. Its self-reproduction characteristics.
10. What is implied in Paragraph 4
A. Developing DNA storage needs support from big companies.
B. The DNA storage system has drawn worldwide attention.
C. The DNA storage system faces great challenges.
D. Using DNA to store data can possibly be a reality.
11. What can we learn from the text
A. Researchers need to perfect the systems greatly.
B. Experts are supportive of the electronic devices.
C. Experts are dissatisfied with the recent advance in the systems.
D. Researchers need financial support to develop the systems.
【答案】8. C 9. B 10. D 11. A

Analysis of the trial of the four-day working week has revealed great efficiency, reduced stress and increased staff engagement, fueling hopes that a better work-life balance for employees could be in sight.
Perpetual Guardian, a New Zealand financial services company, switched its 240 staff from a five-day to a four-day week and maintained their pay. Productivity increased in the four days when they worked, so there was no drop in the total amount of work done, a study of the trial released on Tuesday revealed. The trial was monitored by academics at the University of Auckland and the Auckland University of Technology. The eight-week experiment was closely watched by employers and policymakers around the world. “This is an idea whose time has come,” said Andrew Barnes, Perpetual Guardian’s founder. “We need to get more companies to give it a go.”
The government has conducted a study of the possibility of four-day weeks. However, research points to the complexity of achieving productivity gains in major industries such as retail(零售), where being present is a key part of the job. Smaller companies experimenting with four-day working weeks have found performance was better in the first few weeks as excitement about the project took hold, before falling slightly. “The biggest concern is ensuring that the full-time introduction of the policy doesn’t lead to self-satisfaction, as there is a risk that peopled productivity will slip back,” said Tammy Barker, a branch manager who was part of the trial. “Therefore, we’ve spent a lot of time making sure every person in every team has their own plan as to how they’re going to maintain and even improve productivity.”
According to Jarrod Haar, a professor of human resource management at the Auckland University of Technology, significantly lower job stress was reported with four-day working weeks. “Beyond wellbeing, employees reported their teams were stronger and functioned better together, more satisfied with their jobs, more engaged, and that they felt their work had greater meaning,” he said. “It is really a great way to make employees be more committed to the organization and less likely to look elsewhere for a job.”
12. What changes took place in Perpetual Guardian during the experiment
A. The length of daily working hours B. The amount of pay per week
C. The efficiency of the employees D. The work done per month
13. What does the government’ research on the four-day working week probably reveal
A. Some workers may become lazy. B. The policy doesn’t suit all industries.
C. The four-day working week won’t work. D. Many employers don’t approve of the trial.
14. How did Tammy Barker deal with the concern about the policy
A. By making plans for each of the employees.
B. By dividing all the employees into different teams.
C. By helping every employee get satisfaction from the work.
D. By encouraging every employee to be responsible for their plan.
15. What’s Jarrod Haar’s attitude towards the four-day working week
A. Unclear. B. Concerned. C. Approving. D. Negative.
【答案】12. C 13. B 14. D 15. C

考查连词。句意：获奖者包括获得2015年诺贝尔奖的屠呦呦、被称为中国“杂交水稻之父”的袁隆平以及其他六名杰出英雄。根据句意，前后是并列关系，因此空格处用表并列的连词and，故填and。
【43题详解】
考查时态和主谓一致。句意：《功勋》以这些英雄们为事业奉献的精神和为改善中国人民生活所做的不懈努力为中心。center on或be centered on是固定搭配，意为“以……为中心”，全篇整体是现在范围内的时态，主语“Medal of the Republic”是单数，因此空格处是is centered/centers，故填is centered/centers。
【44题详解】
考查形容词性物主代词。句意：通过获奖者展现的爱国主义精神和永不放弃的精神，该系列节目希望显著地激励年轻一代在中华民族伟大复兴的道路上履行自己的使命。根据语境可知，句子表示“他们的爱国主义精神和永不放弃的精神”，空格处意为“他们的”，用形容词性物主代词作定语，即their，故填their。
【45题详解】
考查副词。句意：通过获奖者展现的爱国主义精神和永不放弃的精神，该系列节目希望显著地激励年轻一代在中华民族伟大复兴的道路上履行自己的使命。根据句意可知修饰动词inspire，用副词dramatically，意为“显著地”，故填dramatically。

Ann loves dogs, but she doesn’t have time to keep even one. Her husband died from an accident, leaving little money but a 10-year-old son, Jack, who was recovering from a heart operation. She had to work all day to support the whole family. One morning, Ann found a lost dog wandering around the local school. She waited there for half an hour but nobody came back to look for it. She had no choice but to take it home and asked her sons to keep an eye on the dog on the day while she was working.
Ann took photos of the dog and printed off 400 FOUND fliers as soon as she came back from work. After a quick supper , Ann, with Jack went out and put them in mailboxes. The next day, Ann went to the dollar store and bought some pet supplies, asking the boy to look after it for another day, and she hoped it would be the last day. She didn’t forget to warn her son not to fall in love with the dog, for they had no money or time.
Four days later no one called to claim, so Ann’s family was still looking after the dog, whom they had started to call Riley. One day when she arrived home from work, the dog barked madly at her and dashed into the boy’s room where Ann found Jack suffering from a heart attack.
“If you had come to me ten minutes later,” the doctor said, “Jack would have not been saved.”
Still no one had called to claim the dog, and it had been the best friend of her son. Ann decided to keep it, although she knew it would bring so much difficulty.

【答案】Para. 1:
The next morning Ann got a call. A man recognized his lost dog and called the number on the flier. Ann was trapped in a dilemma. She was having a hard struggle in her mind, unwilling to tear herself away from Riley and let it go for the moment. Not only had it saved her son’s life from jaws of death, but they truly regarded it as a member of their family. With much difficulty, she had no choice but to tell the news to her sons, both of whom went silent in a second. A sound of dismay escaped Thomas’s throat, while Jack rooted himself against the wall, speechless.
Para. 2:
An hour later, somebody knocked at the door. Everyone knew it was that man who came to pick up his dog. Thomas held Riley tightly in his arms while Jack stared at both of them, full of tears, without even one word. “It’s you!” Ann shouted when she opened the door. It was Dr. Alex who did the heart operation for Jack. When he saw what the two boys did, he hesitated for a while and then smiled to them, asking politely and gently: “Boys, can I help to look after you and your dog on the weekends Of course, I’ll bring some delicious food for you there!” All of them burst out laughing, and Ann’s joy was immense.
