Held in the middle of October every year in Blumenau, it celebrates typical German cuisine and plenty of beer. There’re all kinds of German foods at the festival.

Riding a bike and often wearing a blue hat, John Butler, an 84-year-old former farmer from Derbyshire, England, has become a spiritual (精神的) guide to a growing number of devoted fans.
Butler, an early advocate of organic farming, is a long-time follower of meditation (冥想). As part of his spiritual journey, he began recording inspiring messages in the hope of sharing the lessons he’d learned with others.
The peaceful tone, calming presence, a voice like a warm glass of milk, in which Butler delivered his plain view of life online, soon struck a chord
(引起共鸣) with a rising number of people struggling to free themselves from the day-to-day anxiety caused by COVID-19.
Butler became famous in a 2016 BBC interview. After the interview, he was picked out by members of the Autonomous Sensory Meridian Response (ASMR)
community as someone worth attention not just for what he said, but for the manner in which he said it. Since then, this senior’s popularity has grown.
Having always considered himself something of a “misfit (格格不入的人)” in society, Butler was much more surprised by his popularity than anyone else. Before his ongoing video project, Butler said he had never heard of YouTube and had little knowledge of the Internet. But Butler feels lucky to be able to provide a good influence for people just doing their best to deal with modern-day life.
“So many people have this problem, and because they naturally seek some sort of balance, they look for rest or peace, don’t they ” Butler told the BBC.

From classic books like A Wrinkle in Time to classic movies like Back to the Future, children and adults both have been fascinated by the concept of time travel for hundreds of years. But is it even possible
Time travel sounds simple: you just move back and forth between different
points in time like you would between different points in space. You could jump forward into the future, or you could jump back to sometime in the past.
Exactly how would this be done Most artistic works that feature time travel finish it with the help of a special device usually called a time machine. The time machine features whatever technology has been developed to transport people successfully to other points in time.
But could time travel really happen Some scientists believe that parts of Albert Einstein’s theories of special and general relativity might allow for the possibility of time travel. These theories are complex and very hard to understand. They involve unusual astronomical things like black holes and wormholes. Traveling faster than the speed of light might also be required.
It can be fun, though, to think about what problems might be presented by time travel. It may create an absurd (荒谬的) situation. For example, let’s say that you travel back in time to the day your parents met. What if your showing up on the day your parents met caused a ripple (连锁反应) in time that led to them not meeting If they had never met, you would never have been born. If you had never been born, how could you ever exist to travel back in time to cause the problem you just caused Confusing as it sounds, we hope that any scientist who ever manages to make time travel possible works out these problems in advance.
28. What kind of film is Back to the Future most likely to be
A. An action film. B. A fantasy film.
C. A historical film. D. An adventure film.
29. What does the author mainly do in Paragraph 2
A. Add a topic. B. Give an example.
C. Explain a concept. D. Make a conclusion.
30. What is some scientists’ judgement on the possibility of time travel based on
A. Previous similar cases. B. Accurate scientific research.
C. Some scientific theories. D. Advanced space technology.
31. What does the author think of time travel
A. It will certainly come true one day.
B. It is an impossible and absurd idea.
C. It will change some historical events.
D. It may cause self-contradictory situations.
D.
Research in the US, for the resale site ThredUp, suggests that 70% of women were prepared to buy second-hand fashion in 2019 compared with 45% four years earlier. It predicts that the resale market will be bigger than fast fashion featuring copying high-fashion designs by 2029 as traditional charity shops sell more items and the resale market expands.
Vinted, another resale site, which now has more than 37 million registered members globally across 13 countries, including 1.2 million in the UK, said it saw an increase of between 16% and 17% in listings in its European markets during COVID-19. The company says during COVID-19 shoppers turned to the Internet to clean out unwanted items they could not sell at charity shops.
And there is an impetus that pushes big retailers (零售商) into the second-hand market. According to a report, the fashion industry is responsible for 10% of yearly global carbon emissions (碳排放) — more than all international flights and shipping panies including Asda have all signed up to an action plan, including enabling clothing re-use and reducing waste.
Individuals who are without jobs or working shorter hours are increasingly
selling unwanted goods online, also driving second-hand sales. There’s recognition
that useless objects can have a cash value that can be easily realized.
Tracy Diane Cassidy, a fashion expert, says that an appreciation of excellent design and a desire to create a more individual look beyond mass-produced fast fashion are also driving the trend (趋势).
Brands are starting to take notice that there is a sales opportunity here. Their sales will drop when people start to buy second-hand goods. If they don’t join in, where else are they going to make up for the lost income
32. What does the research find according to Paragraph 1
A. Fast fashion is bound to suffer great losses.
B. People are more willing to buy used items.
C. The resale market attracts young women more.
D. 70% of second-hand fashion buyers are women.
33. What do the underlined words “an impetus” in Paragraph 3 mean
A. A real trouble. B. A weak point.
C. A driving force. D. An economic benefit.
34. What drives the sales in the resale market according to Tracy Diane Cassidy
A. Fashion taste. B. A big profit.
C. The habit of saving. D. Environmental protection.
35. What’s the text mainly about
A. The future of fashion brands.
B. The advantages of clothing re-use.
C. The popularization of the resale market.
D. The reasons for buying second-hand items.

On March 31, 2007, the organization encouraged the citizens in Sydney to switch off all lights and turn off all non-essential devices for one hour. Over 2 million households and 2,100 companies answered the call. This small action helped save 10% of the electricity in a regular evening hour. 37
Besides making an immediate difference, the WWF says the worldwide participation shows people’s desire to do their share to reverse (逆转) climate change. 38 According to the WWF, simple actions such as turning off unnecessary lights or choosing wood pencils over plastic ones can also help reverse climate change.
