【答案】18. B 19. A 20. C
【解析】
【原文】W: When you turn on the radio, you hear an advertisement. When you watch television, you hear and see an advertisement. If you turn the pages of a newspaper or magazine, again you find an advertisement. If you walk down the street, you see one advertising board after another. All day, every day, people who want to sell you something compete to catch your attention. As a result, advertisements are almost everywhere. In the West, advertisements are the fuel that makes mass media work. The government does not give money to mass media such as TV stations, newspapers, magazines and radio stations. They are all owned privately. So where does the money come from From advertisements. Without advertisements, there would not be these private businesses. Have you ever asked yourself what advertising is Through the years, people have given different answers to the question. For some time it was felt that advertising was a means of “keeping your name before the public.” And some people thought that advertising was “truth well told.” Now more and more people describe it in this way: Advertising is the paid, nonpersonal, and usually persuasive description of goods, services and ideas through various media.

During my elementary school years, I used to compare（比较） my mom with my best friend Tiffany’s mom.
Tiffany’s mom always gave her lots of money to buy the most fashionable clothes and favorite food. Her mom allowed her to do anything she liked. I really admired Tiffany. My mom didn’t give me much pocket money and she always told me that I should behave myself. I was annoyed with her.
Whenever I didn’t get what I wanted, I would complain to my mom, Tiffany’s mom would give her that! I wish she were my mom. Every time, my mom would calmly say “Poor Tiffany”. I couldn’t understand her. “She shouldn’t be feeling sorry for Tiffany!” I thought. “She should be feeling sorry for me.”
One day, I couldn’t help saying to Mom, “Poor Tiffany Lucky Tiffany! She gets everything she wants! Why do you feel sorry for her ” I burst out crying.
My mom sat down next to me and said softly. “Yes, I do feel sorry for her. I have been teaching you a lesson that she will never be taught.”
I looked up at her. “What are you talking about ”
Mom said with care, “One day she will really want something. Maybe she’ll find out that she can’t have it. Her mother won’t always be around to give her money, and what’s more, money can’t buy everything.”
She continued, “I have taught you valuable lessons by not giving you everything you want. You’ll know how to look for bargains（便宜货） and save money, but she won’t. You’ll understand that you need to work hard to get the things that you want but she won’t. When Tiffany is a grown woman, she’ll wake up one day and she will be wishing that she had a mom like the one you’ve got. Life lessons are more important than modern clothes and delicious food.”
It took some time, but I eventually understood my mom’s words. Now I am a happy and successful woman.
24. During the author’s elementary school years, she ______.
A. went to school with Tiffany every day
B. usually got lots of money from her mom

【答案】24. C 25. D 26. A 27. A
【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇记叙文。主要讲述的是作者由反感母亲对自己严格对待到慢慢接受母亲的做法并感激母亲这么做的故事。
【24题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第二段“Tiffany’s mom always gave her lots of money to buy the most fashionable clothes and favorite food. Her mom allowed her to do anything she liked. I really admired Tiffany. My mom didn’t give me much pocket money and she always told me that I should behave myself. I was annoyed with her.” 妈妈总是给她很多钱去买最时髦的衣服和最喜欢的食物。她妈妈允许她做任何她喜欢的事情。我真的很佩服蒂芙尼。我妈妈没有给我很多零花钱，她总是告诉我，我应该守规矩。我生她的气。和文章第三段“Whenever I didn't get what I wanted, I would complain to my mom, Tiffany's mom would give her that! I wish she were my mom.”每当我没有得到我想要的，我就会向我妈妈抱怨，蒂芬妮的妈妈就会给她那个!我希望她是我妈妈。句中“I wish she were my mom.”可知她希望自己的妈妈和Tiffany的妈妈一样好。故C正确。
【25题详解】
细节理解题。题目所问：妈妈为什么总是说"Poor Tiffany"？定位文章第5段“My mom sat down next to me and said softly. "Yes, I do feel sorry for her. I have been teaching you a lesson that she will never be taught. "” 妈妈在我旁边坐下，轻声说。“是的，我确实为她感到难过。我已经给你上了一个她永远也不会上得到的课程。可知作者的妈妈认为Tiffany没有教给Tiffany任何东西，只是一味地满足她的需要，过分溺爱Tiffany了。故D正确。
【26题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章倒数2,3段“Maybe she'll find out that she can't have it. Her mother won't always be around to give her money, and what's more, money can't buy everything. ” 也许她会发现她不能拥有它。她妈妈不会总在身边给她钱，而且，钱并不能买到一切。和“She continued, "I have taught you valuable lessons by not giving you everything you want. You'll know how to look for bargains and save money, but she won't.”她继续说:“我没有给你想要的一切，这给了你宝贵的教训。你会知道如何淘便宜货和省钱，但她不会。以及文章第一段“My mom didn't give me much pocket money and she always told me that I should behave myself. I was annoyed with her.” 我妈妈没有给我很多零花钱,她总是告诉我,我应该守规矩。我生她的气。可知作者的妈妈不是总是满足作者的需要，而且对作者要求很严格，希望她能够独立。故A正确。
【27题详解】
推理判断题。定位于文章最后一段“It took some time, but I eventually understood my mom's words. Now I am a happy and successful woman.“理解妈妈的想法的确要花很多时间。但是最后我理解了妈妈的话，现在我很开心也是一个很成功的女人。由此判断出，作者对妈妈很感激。故A正确。
C
Do you find it difficult to put down your mobile phone If yes, you’re not alone. These days, many people suffer from the stress of FOMO (fear of missing out). They reach for their mobile phones when they wake up in the morning, and for the rest of the day, they constantly scroll down (向下滚动) the timelines of their social media apps to get the latest updates.
Despite the convenience smartphones bring, many people struggle with their digital habits. As Sameer Samat, US tech Company Google’s vice president of product management, said in his speech at the 2018 Google I/O developer conference on May 8th, 70 percent of people don’t want to spend so much time on their phones. This is why during the conference Google introduced an app called Dashboard for the new version (版本) of its Android operating system. This new app includes well-being functions that aim to help users manage the time they spend on their digital devices.
It all starts with a bird’s-eye view. Dashboard allows users to look at all the details of their phone habits. For example, a user can see how many times they’ve unlocked their phone and how many times they’ve checked their social media apps, as well as how much time they spend on each app every day.
Once the users see this information, they’ll be able to make some changes. With the App Timer function, users can set a time limit for how long they can use each app for every day. After they’ve hit the limit, they won’t be able to launch the app until the next day.
But even if users become more mindful of their usage, they’re still likely to be drawn in by notifications (通知). This is where the Shush feature comes in. It automatically (自动地) silences incoming calls and notifications when a user puts their phone face down.
If people truly want to make full use of their free time instead of losing hours using their smart phones, these new functions are just one way of doing that. After all, who needs to use an app to stop you from using other apps when the easiest answer would be just to use your willpower
28. Who are the target users of Dashboard
A. People who know little about smartphones.
B. People who have trouble dealing with stress.
C. People who are slow at searching for things online.
D. People who wish to manage the time they spend on their smartphone.
29. What can Dashboard do
A. Lock the phone at a certain time. B. Limit some apps to certain users.
C. Limit the time certain apps can be used. D. Silence app notifications at night.
30. The underlined word “mindful” in Paragraph 5 is closest in meaning to ________.
A. skillful. B. careful. C. trapped. D. creative.
31. What does the author think of Dashboard
A. It’s not useful at all. B. It’s perfectly designed.
C. It should include more functions. D. It may be helpful to some people.
【答案】28. D 29. C 30. B 31. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了谷歌推出的一款能帮助人们更好地管理使用智能手机的时间的新的应用程序——Dashboard。
【28题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第二段最后一句“This new app includes well-being functions that aim to help users manage the time they spend on their digital devices.(这款新的应用程序包括健康功能，旨在帮助用户管理他们花在数字设备上的时间)”可知，Dashboard的目标用户是那些想管理自己花在智能手机上的时间的人，故选D项。
【29题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段第二句“With the App Timer function, users can set a time limit for how long they can use each app for every day. After they’ve hit the limit, they won’t be able to launch the app until the next day.(通过定时功能，用户可以设置每天使用每个应用程序的时间限制。当他们达到时间上限后，他们直到第二天才能启动该应用程序)”，由此可知，Dashboard能够限制用户在使用某些应用程序的时间，故选C项。
【30题详解】
词义猜测题。根据第四段最后一句“After they’ve hit the limit, they won’t be able to launch the app until the next day.(当他们达到时间上限后，他们直到第二天才能启动该应用程序)”，以及划线词所在句“But even if users become more mindful of their usage, they’re still likely to be drawn in by notifications (通知).（但即使用户更mindful他们的使用，他们仍然可能被通知所吸引)”可知，用户会很留意自己的使用某些应用程序的时间，mindful意为“留心的”，与careful语意相近，故选B项。
【31题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“If people truly want to make full use of their free time instead of losing hours using their smart phones, these new functions are just one way of doing that. After all, who needs to use an app to stop you from using other apps when the easiest answer would be just to use your willpower (如果人们真的想充分利用他们的空闲时间，而不是浪费时间使用他们的智能手机，这些新功能只是其中一种方式。毕竟，当最简单的解决办法就是利用意志力时，谁还需要用一个应用程序来阻止你使用其他应用程序呢？)”可知，Dashboard的这个功能对于没有意志力的人来说应该是有帮助的。故选D项。
D
Researchers all over the world have been dreaming of “lab-grown” or “cultured” meat, for years. Today, their dream took one step closer to reality as the cultured chicken meat from the US company, Eat Just, has been allowed for sale in Singapore.
Lab-grown chicken is made of real chicken cells, but it's grown in a lab instead of growing in a live chicken.(Cultured meat is different from plant-based meats like the Impossible Burger, Beyond Meat or Quorn, which use plant proteins to create products that just taste very similar to the products made from real meat.)
To grow cultured chicken meat, cells are taken from a real chicken. These cells are then put in a special kind of water that encourages the cells to grow in the lab until they've produced chicken meat——without the chicken.
But many technical challenges of bringing lab-grown meat to the table are far from solved. No one has yet found out how to produce cultured meat even with the same texture and structure of real meat. Even replacing chicken products with lab-grown chicken products that are not very strict with such texture and structure would be a big success for the world.
The existing projects, like Eat Just's in Singapore, can only produce a very small amount of meat for special dishes, while the meat industry kills tens of billions of animals each year. Matching that will be a challenge.
The next challenge is cost. Lab-grown meat is much more expensive than factory farming. "Factory-farmed meat is unbelievably cheap," said Lewis Bollard, who researches animals at the Open Philanthropy Project. “The meat industry doesn't pay for the environmental and the public health problems they have caused. They have managed to produce a product that is just artificially cheap and hard to compete with.”
Although there are still many challenges ahead, today's success in Singapore is cause for celebration.
32. Which company's product is made of animal cells
A. Quorn. B. Eat Just. C. Beyond Meat. D. Impossible Burger.
33. What can we say about the cultured chicken meat
A. It has been grown in a live chicken. B. It has the same texture of real meat.
C. It still tastes different from real meat. D. It has been produced in huge amounts.
34. What does Lewis Bollard mean
A. Researchers have had a big success in Singapore.
B. There are many technical challenges to be solved.
C. Cultured meat still cannot compete with real meat.
D. Factory-farmed meat is very harmful to our health.
35. What can be a suitable title for the text
A. Cultured Meat Still Faces Too Many Problems
B. When Will Lab-grown Meat Become Reality
C. How to Grow Cultured Chicken Meat in a Lab
D. The First Lab-grown Meat to Be on Sale in Singapore
【答案】32. B 33. C 34. C 35. D
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了来自美国公司Eat Just的人工培育鸡肉已获准在新加坡销售，实验室培育的鸡是由真正的鸡细胞制成的，但它是在实验室培育的，而不是在活鸡体内培育的。文章介绍了这种培育肉的培育过程，以及仍然面临的一些挑战。
【32题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中“Today, their dream took one step closer to reality as the cultured chicken meat from the US company, Eat Just, has been allowed for sale in Singapore.(今天，他们的梦想离现实又近了一步，因为来自美国公司Eat Just的人工培育鸡肉已获准在新加坡销售)”以及第二段中“Lab-grown chicken is made of real chicken cells, but it's grown in a lab instead of growing in a live chicken. (实验室培育的鸡是由真正的鸡细胞制成的，但它是在实验室培育的，而不是在活鸡体内培育的)”可知，Eat Just公司的产品是用动物细胞制成的。故选B。
【33题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段中“No one has yet found out how to produce cultured meat even with the same texture and structure of real meat. Even replacing chicken products with lab-grown chicken products that are not very strict with such texture and structure would be a big success for the world.(至今还没有人发现如何生产出与真肉具有相同质地和结构的人工肉。即使用实验室培育的鸡肉产品来代替鸡肉产品，这种鸡肉产品在质地和结构上与真鸡肉并不十分严格相似，对世界来说都是一个巨大的成功)”可知，人工培育出的鸡肉的味道仍然不同于真正的肉。故选C。
【34题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中“Lab-grown meat is much more expensive than factory farming. "Factory-farmed meat is unbelievably cheap," said Lewis Bollard, who researches animals at the Open Philanthropy Project. “The meat industry doesn't pay for the environmental and the public health problems they have caused. They have managed to produce a product that is just artificially cheap and hard to compete with.”(实验室培养的肉比工厂化养殖要贵得多。在开放慈善项目研究动物的Lewis Bollard说：“工厂化养殖的肉类价格便宜得令人难以置信，肉类行业并没有为他们造成的环境和公共健康问题买单。他们成功地生产出了一种人为压低价格、难以与之竞争的产品。”)”可推知，Lewis Bollard的意思是实验室培养出的肉仍然不能与真正的肉竞争。故选C。
【35题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段中“Today, their dream took one step closer to reality as the cultured chicken meat from the US company, Eat Just, has been allowed for sale in Singapore.(今天，他们的梦想离现实又近了一步，因为来自美国公司Eat Just的人工培育鸡肉已获准在新加坡销售)”结合文章主要说明了来自美国公司Eat Just的人工培育鸡肉已获准在新加坡销售，实验室培育的鸡是由真正的鸡细胞制成的，但它是在实验室培育的，而不是在活鸡体内培育的。文章介绍了这种培育肉的培育过程，以及仍然面临的一些挑战。可知，D选项“从实验室中培养出的肉第一次在新加坡出售”最符合文章标题。故选D。

Brainstorm, and write down every idea that comes to your mind, as crazy as it may seem. You can always cross it off the list later, but crazy ideas can bring creative solutions. Once you have your list, ask others for suggestions. ___37___
Weigh the possible results. For every option, list every possible result, and label (标签) it as positive or negative. ___38___ You can put a plus sign next to each positive result and a minus sign next to each negative one. Give two pluses or minuses to the best and the worst.
___39___ This is the hardest step, but there will hopefully be a decision on your list that is supported by both logic and intuition (直觉). If you still can’t decide, ask for advice from people you trust. If need be, let them be the tie-breakers. It’s better than flipping (掷) a coin.
Carry it out wholeheartedly once you have made a decision. At this stage, don’t let yourself be confused by thinking about all the choices you didn’t pick.
In the end, remember to evaluate your decision afterward. ___40___ By drawing wisdom from every decision you make, you can ensure that every choice has at least one positive result.
A. Make a choice.
B. Think about who is affected.
C. There is a simple way to do this.

【66题详解】
考查动词时态。句意：这部史诗电影以陕西省的古城长安命名，长安曾是唐朝的都城，长达280多年，时长168分钟，是中国动画电影中最长的，它将中国文学史上一些最具代表性的人物栩栩如生地展现在人们的生活中。分析句子结构可知，此处为定语从句的谓语动词，结合语境可知，此处讲述的是唐朝发生的事情，所以此处应用一般过去时，serve与主语之间为主动关系。故填served。
【67题详解】

【74题详解】
考查副词。句意：此外，诗人还会去当地的酒馆，在那里欣赏异域舞者迷人的舞姿和悠扬的歌声，品尝葡萄酒，创作诗歌。分析句子结构可知，此处为副词作状语修饰整个句子，addition的副词additionally意为“此外”符合句意，且位于句首，所以additionally的首字母需大写。故填Additionally。
【75题详解】
考查定语从句。句意：此外，诗人还会去当地的酒馆，在那里欣赏异域舞者迷人的舞姿和悠扬的歌声，品尝葡萄酒，创作诗歌。分析句子结构可知，此处为关系词引导的非限制性定语从句对local taverns作进一步的说明，从句中不缺主语和宾语，所以此处使用关系副词，先行词local taverns指的是地点，所以此处使用关系副词where。故填where。

Jenny was the only child in her home. She had a quarrel with her mother that afternoon and she ran out of the house angrily. Having wandered aimlessly in the street for hours, she felt a little hungry and wished for something to eat. She stood beside a stand for a while, watching the middle-aged seller busy doing his business. However, with no money in hand, she sighed and had to leave.
The seller noticed the young girl and asked, “Hey, girl, you want to have the noodles ”
“Oh, yes... but I don’t have money...” she replied.
“I’ll treat you today,” said the seller.
The seller brought her a bowl of noodles, whose smell was so attractive. Jenny thanked the seller and started to gobble (狼吞虎咽) up the delicious food…then cried silently.
“What is it ” asked the seller kindly.
“Nothing, actually I was moved by your kindness!” said Jenny as she wiped her tears. “Even a stranger on the street will give me a bowl of noodles, while my mother scolded (骂) me and drove me out of the house. She showed no care for me. She is so mean and cruel!”
Hearing the words, the seller smiled, “Girl, I only gave you a bowl of noodles and you thanked me a lot. But it is your mother who has raised you since you were a baby. Can you number the times that she has cooked for you Have you expressed your thanks to her ”
Jenny sat there, speechless and numb (麻木的) with shock; she remembered her mother’s familiar face and weathered hands. “Why did I not think of that A bowl of noodles from a stranger made me feel grateful, but I have never thanked my mum for what she has done for me.”
On the way home, Jenny made up her mind to make an apology to her mother for her rudeness as soon as she arrived home.

______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】Approaching the doorway, Jenny took a deep breath. When she knocked at the door, she found the door was locked and her mother was not in. Tired and sad, she sat down in front of the house. “Where could my mother be ” she wondered. “Was she still angry with me ” Again, the scene of the quarrel appeared in her mind. She remembered her rudeness to her mother. Realizing that all the scolding from her mother was due to the fact that her mother really cared a lot about her, she felt rather ashamed, and tears began to roll down her checks.
A gentle touch on her hair called her mind back. She raised her head and saw the familiar face of her mother. “Here you come! I’ve been looking for you,” her mum said, hugely relieved. Shame hitting, the girl kept silent, having no courage to look her mother in the eyes. She couldn’t help throwing herself into her mother’s arms. “Mum, I’m so sorry and thank you for all you have done for me,” she expressed her sincere apology and great gratitude. Hearing this, her mother smiled patting her back gently, “I love you regardless, my girl.”

During my elementary school years, I used to compare（比较） my mom with my best friend Tiffany’s mom.
Tiffany’s mom always gave her lots of money to buy the most fashionable clothes and favorite food. Her mom allowed her to do anything she liked. I really admired Tiffany. My mom didn’t give me much pocket money and she always told me that I should behave myself. I was annoyed with her.
Whenever I didn’t get what I wanted, I would complain to my mom, Tiffany’s mom would give her that! I wish she were my mom. Every time, my mom would calmly say “Poor Tiffany”. I couldn’t understand her. “She shouldn’t be feeling sorry for Tiffany!” I thought. “She should be feeling sorry for me.”
One day, I couldn’t help saying to Mom, “Poor Tiffany Lucky Tiffany! She gets everything she wants! Why do you feel sorry for her ” I burst out crying.
My mom sat down next to me and said softly. “Yes, I do feel sorry for her. I have been teaching you a lesson that she will never be taught.”
I looked up at her. “What are you talking about ”
Mom said with care, “One day she will really want something. Maybe she’ll find out that she can’t have it. Her mother won’t always be around to give her money, and what’s more, money can’t buy everything.”
She continued, “I have taught you valuable lessons by not giving you everything you want. You’ll know how to look for bargains（便宜货） and save money, but she won’t. You’ll understand that you need to work hard to get the things that you want but she won’t. When Tiffany is a grown woman, she’ll wake up one day and she will be wishing that she had a mom like the one you’ve got. Life lessons are more important than modern clothes and delicious food.”
It took some time, but I eventually understood my mom’s words. Now I am a happy and successful woman.

Do you find it difficult to put down your mobile phone If yes, you’re not alone. These days, many people suffer from the stress of FOMO (fear of missing out). They reach for their mobile phones when they wake up in the morning, and for the rest of the day, they constantly scroll down (向下滚动) the timelines of their social media apps to get the latest updates.
Despite the convenience smartphones bring, many people struggle with their digital habits. As Sameer Samat, US tech Company Google’s vice president of product management, said in his speech at the 2018 Google I/O developer conference on May 8th, 70 percent of people don’t want to spend so much time on their phones. This is why during the conference Google introduced an app called Dashboard for the new version (版本) of its Android operating system. This new app includes well-being functions that aim to help users manage the time they spend on their digital devices.
It all starts with a bird’s-eye view. Dashboard allows users to look at all the details of their phone habits. For example, a user can see how many times they’ve unlocked their phone and how many times they’ve checked their social media apps, as well as how much time they spend on each app every day.
Once the users see this information, they’ll be able to make some changes. With the App Timer function, users can set a time limit for how long they can use each app for every day. After they’ve hit the limit, they won’t be able to launch the app until the next day.
But even if users become more mindful of their usage, they’re still likely to be drawn in by notifications (通知). This is where the Shush feature comes in. It automatically (自动地) silences incoming calls and notifications when a user puts their phone face down.
If people truly want to make full use of their free time instead of losing hours using their smart phones, these new functions are just one way of doing that. After all, who needs to use an app to stop you from using other apps when the easiest answer would be just to use your willpower
28. Who are the target users of Dashboard
A. People who know little about smartphones.
B. People who have trouble dealing with stress.
C. People who are slow at searching for things online.
D. People who wish to manage the time they spend on their smartphone.
29. What can Dashboard do
A. Lock the phone at a certain time. B. Limit some apps to certain users.
C. Limit the time certain apps can be used. D. Silence app notifications at night.
30. The underlined word “mindful” in Paragraph 5 is closest in meaning to ________.
A. skillful. B. careful. C. trapped. D. creative.
31. What does the author think of Dashboard
A. It’s not useful at all. B. It’s perfectly designed.
C It should include more functions. D. It may be helpful to some people.
D
Researchers all over the world have been dreaming of “lab-grown” or “cultured” meat, for years. Today, their dream took one step closer to reality as the cultured chicken meat from the US company, Eat Just, has been allowed for sale in Singapore.
Lab-grown chicken is made of real chicken cells, but it's grown in a lab instead of growing in a live chicken.(Cultured meat is different from plant-based meats like the Impossible Burger, Beyond Meat or Quorn, which use plant proteins to create products that just taste very similar to the products made from real meat.)
To grow cultured chicken meat, cells are taken from a real chicken. These cells are then put in a special kind of water that encourages the cells to grow in the lab until they've produced chicken meat——without the chicken.
But many technical challenges of bringing lab-grown meat to the table are far from solved. No one has yet found out how to produce cultured meat even with the same texture and structure of real meat. Even replacing chicken products with lab-grown chicken products that are not very strict with such texture and structure would be a big success for the world.
The existing projects, like Eat Just's in Singapore, can only produce a very small amount of meat for special dishes, while the meat industry kills tens of billions of animals each year. Matching that will be a challenge.
The next challenge is cost. Lab-grown meat is much more expensive than factory farming. "Factory-farmed meat is unbelievably cheap," said Lewis Bollard, who researches animals at the Open Philanthropy Project. “The meat industry doesn't pay for the environmental and the public health problems they have caused. They have managed to produce a product that is just artificially cheap and hard to compete with.”
Although there are still many challenges ahead, today's success in Singapore is cause for celebration.
32. Which company's product is made of animal cells
A. Quorn. B. Eat Just. C. Beyond Meat. D. Impossible Burger.
33. What can we say about the cultured chicken meat
A. It has been grown in a live chicken. B. It has the same texture of real meat.
C. It still tastes different from real meat. D. It has been produced in huge amounts.
34. What does Lewis Bollard mean
A. Researchers have had a big success in Singapore.
B. There are many technical challenges to be solved.
C. Cultured meat still cannot compete with real meat.
D. Factory-farmed meat is very harmful to our health.
35. What can be a suitable title for the text
A. Cultured Meat Still Faces Too Many Problems
B. When Will Lab-grown Meat Become Reality
C. How to Grow Cultured Chicken Meat in a Lab
D. The First Lab-grown Meat to Be on Sale in Singapore

How to Make Wise Decisions
We make decisions every day; everything we say and do is the result of a decision. ___36___ However, there are some steps you can follow.
List your options (选择). It may appear that there is only one course of action, but that is not necessarily true. No matter how limited your situation seems, try to make a list of options.

Once you have your list, ask others for suggestions. ___37___
Weigh the possible results. For every option, list every possible result, and label (标签) it as positive or negative. ___38___ You can put a plus sign next to each positive result and a minus sign next to each negative one. Give two pluses or minuses to the best and the worst.
___39___ This is the hardest step, but there will hopefully be a decision on your list that is supported by both logic and intuition (直觉). If you still can’t decide, ask for advice from people you trust. If need be, let them be the tie-breakers. It’s better than flipping (掷) a coin.
Carry it out wholeheartedly once you have made a decision. At this stage, don’t let yourself be confused by thinking about all the choices you didn’t pick.
In the end, remember to evaluate your decision afterward. ___40___ By drawing wisdom from every decision you make, you can ensure that every choice has at least one positive result.

Jenny was the only child in her home. She had a quarrel with her mother that afternoon and she ran out of the house angrily. Having wandered aimlessly in the street for hours, she felt a little hungry and wished for something to eat. She stood beside a stand for a while, watching the middle-aged seller busy doing his business. However, with no money in hand, she sighed and had to leave.
The seller noticed the young girl and asked, “Hey, girl, you want to have the noodles ”
“Oh, yes... but I don’t have money...” she replied.
“I’ll treat you today,” said the seller.
The seller brought her a bowl of noodles, whose smell was so attractive. Jenny thanked the seller and started to gobble (狼吞虎咽) up the delicious food…then cried silently.
“What is it ” asked the seller kindly.
“Nothing, actually I was moved by your kindness!” said Jenny as she wiped her tears. “Even a stranger on the street will give me a bowl of noodles, while my mother scolded (骂) me and drove me out of the house. She showed no care for me. She is so mean and cruel!”
Hearing the words, the seller smiled, “Girl, I only gave you a bowl of noodles and you thanked me a lot. But it is your mother who has raised you since you were a baby. Can you number the times that she has cooked for you Have you expressed your thanks to her ”
Jenny sat there, speechless and numb (麻木的) with shock; she remembered her mother’s familiar face and weathered hands. “Why did I not think of that A bowl of noodles from a stranger made me feel grateful, but I have never thanked my mum for what she has done for me.”
