Giraffenap is a new style of sleeping pod (仓) that encourages workers to get power naps during the day as a way of improving concentration and work efficiency.
Japan usually emphasizes extreme dedication to one’s work. In order to get used to this kind of heavy schedule and stress, some workers turn to short power naps. These are known to improve energy levels and concentration, as long as the person doesn’t go into deep sleep. In order to make it easier for people to get power naps pretty much anywhere, one company has begun installing vertical (垂直的) sleeping pods called Giraffenap in cafes all over the country.
One of the main reasons that Giraffenap pods have a vertical orientation is space-it’s much easier to have them installed in small cafes and restaurants because they take up little room-but it’s not the only reason. The standing position makes it easier for the person using the pod to wake up from their power nap.
Each Giraffenap pod features an alarm system that can be set by the user and support points for various parts of the body, which can make sure that the user remains in an upright position when napping. The pods also feature a height adjustment system so that anyone can achieve the perfect posture while using them.
Giraffenap sleeping pods currently come in two styles: a plain white model and one that uses a more traditional bamboo design. They offer great sound insulation (隔音), various sounds designed to support sleep and a built-in ventilation system.
Giraffenap is currently being put into effect in some coffee shops in Japan, and if the response is positive enough, we might also start seeing them in other places.
24. Where is the text probably taken from
A. Science magazine B. A biography
C. An advertisement D. A novel
25. What is an advantage of Giraffenap
A. It keeps people healthy. B. It is very cheap in price.
C. It saves a lot of energy. D. It makes work efficient.
26. What is paragraph 5 mainly about
A. The types of Giraffenap pods B. The effect of Giraffenap pods
C. The features of Giraffenap pods D. The materials of Giraffenap pods
27. What’s the main idea of the text
A. Hotels are to be replaced soon. B. People’s sleeping habits change.
C. A company launches vertical pods. D. How we keep energetic at work.
C
When Alex Lin was 11 years old, he read an alarming article in the newspaper about e-waste. The article said that people were throwing away their e-waste in places it should never go. This was dangerous, the article said, because e-waste contains poisonous chemicals and metals like lead. These harmful substances (物质) can leak into the environment, getting into crops, animals, water supplies—and people.
Alex showed the article to a few of his classmates. They were worried too. But what could they do about this problem with e-waste How would they even start “The first thing we did,” Alex says, “was to learn more about the problem.” Alex and his friends spent several weeks gathering information about the chemicals in e-waste and their effects on humans. They learned how to dispose (处理) of e-waste properly and how it could be recycled. “Then,” he says, “we had to find out what the situation was in our town. So we sent out a survey.”
What they found shocked them: Of the people who answered the survey, only one in eight even knew what e-waste was, let alone how to properly dispose of it. Alex and his friends went into action. They advertised in the local newspaper and distributed notices to students, asking residents to bring their unwanted electronics to the school parking lot. The drive lasted two days, and they collected over 21,000 pounds of e-waste.
The next step was to set up an e-waste drop-off center for the town and to find a responsible company to recycle the waste. That was when Alex and his friends learned another scary fact about e-waste—some irresponsible recycling companies don’t break down the e-waste and dispose of it safely themselves. Instead, they ship it overseas to countries such as China and Nigeria, where local environmental laws are not applied. “We checked carefully online to make sure the company we chose didn’t do this,” Alex says.
Because of the work of people like Alex and his team, more and more people are getting the message about safe disposal of e-waste. As Alex says, “Today’s technology should not become tomorrow’s poisonous trash.”
28. What can we learn about Alex from paragraph 1 and paragraph 2
A. He was curious about chemistry experiments.
B. He possessed a strong sense of responsibility.
C. He set out to solve the problem individually.
D. He formed the habit of reading newspapers.
29. What does the underlined word “drive” mean
A. campaign B. imagination C. performance D. technology
30. Why did some companies transport the e-waste to other countries
A. Lack of available space was the reason for shipping.
B. Recycling was totally banned in their own country.
C. They were running their companies on a tight budget.
D. They were not charged with insecurely disposing it.
31. What’s the suitable title for the text
A. Reusing School Computers B. Recycling Electronic Waste
C. Meeting a challenge D. Doing scientific experiment
D
Songbirds do have a perfect voice. Every species of bird wakes up at a very particular time in the morning and begins to sing. This is because each species has its own specific waking stimulus (刺激), which is linked to the brightness of the sunlight.
Like human beings have to learn to speak, birds also have to learn how to sing. They do this in several stages. First, they practise voices and sounds, which is comparable to the early stage in human language development. During the second stage, the birds practise their songs for eight to nine months, until memory and practice match up. The singing is strengthened during the final stage.
Although nightingales got their name as a result of their singing at night, not all nightingales sing at night. Generally, both males and females sing during the day. The night song is used mainly for seeking partners. After succeeding in attracting a female, the male nightingale falls silent and doesn't start his song again until the early morning.
Birds are seasonal singers. We only hear numerous kinds of bird concerts between spring and high summer. This is the time when birds are looking for partners and when the males aim to impress the females with their song and mark out their territory at the same time. However, even after they have found a partner, male birds continue to sing, because this is the time when they are showing their offspring (幼崽) how to sing.
Birds don’t all sing as well as others, not even within a species. The song of a bird in London will be quite different from that of a bird in Paris or Berlin. Although the members of each bird species share a vocabulary of sounds, dialect differences are quite common. The individual dialects are not natural but are learnt while the birds are children that adopt the dialect of their parents. The young birds always sing as well or as badly as their teachers, because the adults on whom they model themselves vary in style and talent from region to region.
32. What role does the brightness of sunlight play in birds’ singing
A. It makes them learn songs easily.
B. It affects where they hold concerts.
C. It leads them to find abundant food.
D. It determines when they begin to sing.
33. What’s the reason for male birds continue to sing after finding partners
A. To mark its territory B. To teach its offspring
C. To draw female’s attention D. To drive enemies away
34. When do birds learn individual dialects
A. After they leave their homes B. Before they find partners
C. When they are still young D. When they become grown-up
35. What is the text mainly about
A. The varieties of Birdsong
B. The science of Birds’ singing
C. The living environment of Birds
D. The dialects of Bird Communication

The Girl Who Never Talked
I never really felt like I fit in. I was a freshman in high school and my only close friend was Bella, whom I had known since kindergarten. Bella is and will always be one of my best friends and we often play together. However, she had other close friends too, but I didn't. I was on the volleyball team, and on the court I knew exactly who I was and where I was supposed to be. I loved all of my teammates, but when we were sitting in the stands before and after games I would just sit there quietly, totally unsure of myself.
At school, no one spoke to me and I didn't know how to get along with them. It seems like the only time anyone talked to me was just to jokingly say, "You are so quiet!... do you ever talk " I wanted to talk, but I just couldn't find the words. I never felt like I knew what to say in a big group of people. All of these made me upset.
One Saturday after our game, Bella was supposed to come over and spend the night at my house. We always had a lot of fun together. I wished that I could talk to the other girls the way I talked to her. But before we left the gym that day, some of the other volleyball girls invited her to go to the movies with them. Since Bella had already made plans with me, they asked if I would like to go to the movies with them too. I agreed and was happy to have a chance to join them.
One of the moms drove us, and we all piled into the back seat of her Suburban-Rhiannon, Destinee, Christine, Bella, and me. I was kind of nervous at first, but once it was just us five, I came out of my shell (壳). For the first time in my life, I really felt like I was a part of the conversation, instead of just sitting there listening. It turned out that I had a lot to say.
注意:
1. 续写词数应为150左右;
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
All the way there, an all the way back, we talked and laughed.
______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
I smiled, knowing I finally had friends and my school life would be much happier.

【原文】W: Right, listen everyone. The trip to the Ocean Park is next Tuesday, the 26th of May. I hope all of you have a form signed by your parents to say you can go. You need to pay for this trip by Friday. The cost is 6.50 for admission to the Ocean Park and 2.00 towards the cost of the coach. So, that means the amount you need is 8.50. Now, it’s very important for you to bring your lunch. We will provide water and some fruit, so don’t worry about that. We’re going to eat on the beach in front of the Ocean Park, and there won’t be a chance to buy anything, so you must bring your own.
It’s going to be a really interesting trip. There are a few special events the day we are going. We’re going to watch the sharks being fed at 3:00, no, hold on, that’s at 2:30. There’s also a talk every morning at 11. The topics change every day and often they talk about fish, but on the day we’re going — that’s next Tuesday — it’s about penguins, so I’m sure you’ll all love that. We’ll give you some worksheets to do while you’re at the Ocean Park, but don’t worry, they’ll be quite easy.

Giraffenap is a new style of sleeping pod (仓) that encourages workers to get power naps during the day as a way of improving concentration and work efficiency.
Japan usually emphasizes extreme dedication to one’s work. In order to get used to this kind of heavy schedule and stress, some workers turn to short power naps. These are known to improve energy levels and concentration, as long as the person doesn’t go into deep sleep. In order to make it easier for people to get power naps pretty much anywhere, one company has begun installing vertical (垂直的) sleeping pods called Giraffenap in cafes all over the country.
One of the main reasons that Giraffenap pods have a vertical orientation is space-it’s much easier to have them installed in small cafes and restaurants because they take up little room-but it’s not the only reason. The standing position makes it easier for the person using the pod to wake up from their power nap.
Each Giraffenap pod features an alarm system that can be set by the user and support points for various parts of the body, which can make sure that the user remains in an upright position when napping. The pods also feature a height adjustment system so that anyone can achieve the perfect posture while using them.
Giraffenap sleeping pods currently come in two styles: a plain white model and one that uses a more traditional bamboo design. They offer great sound insulation (隔音), various sounds designed to support sleep and a built-in ventilation system.
Giraffenap is currently being put into effect in some coffee shops in Japan, and if the response is positive enough, we might also start seeing them in other places.
24. Where is the text probably taken from
A. Science magazine B. A biography
C. An advertisement D. A novel
25. What is an advantage of Giraffenap
A. It keeps people healthy. B. It is very cheap in price.
C. It saves a lot of energy. D. It makes work efficient.
26. What is paragraph 5 mainly about
A. The types of Giraffenap pods B. The effect of Giraffenap pods
C. The features of Giraffenap pods D. The materials of Giraffenap pods
27. What’s the main idea of the text

When Alex Lin was 11 years old, he read an alarming article in the newspaper about e-waste. The article said that people were throwing away their e-waste in places it should never go. This was dangerous, the article said, because e-waste contains poisonous chemicals and metals like lead. These harmful substances (物质) can leak into the environment, getting into crops, animals, water supplies—and people.
Alex showed the article to a few of his classmates. They were worried too. But what could they do about this problem with e-waste How would they even start “The first thing we did,” Alex says, “was to learn more about the problem.” Alex and his friends spent several weeks gathering information about the chemicals in e-waste and their effects on humans. They learned how to dispose (处理) of e-waste properly and how it could be recycled. “Then,” he says, “we had to find out what the situation was in our town. So we sent out a survey.”
What they found shocked them: Of the people who answered the survey, only one in eight even knew what e-waste was, let alone how to properly dispose of it. Alex and his friends went into action. They advertised in the local newspaper and distributed notices to students, asking residents to bring their unwanted electronics to the school parking lot. The drive lasted two days, and they collected over 21,000 pounds of e-waste.
The next step was to set up an e-waste drop-off center for the town and to find a responsible company to recycle the waste. That was when Alex and his friends learned another scary fact about e-waste—some irresponsible recycling companies don’t break down the e-waste and dispose of it safely themselves. Instead, they ship it overseas to countries such as China and Nigeria, where local environmental laws are not applied. “We checked carefully online to make sure the company we chose didn’t do this,” Alex says.
Because of the work of people like Alex and his team, more and more people are getting the message about safe disposal of e-waste. As Alex says, “Today’s technology should not become tomorrow’s poisonous trash.”
28. What can we learn about Alex from paragraph 1 and paragraph 2
A. He was curious about chemistry experiments.
B. He possessed a strong sense of responsibility.
C. He set out to solve the problem individually.
D. He formed the habit of reading newspapers.
29. What does the underlined word “drive” mean
A. campaign B. imagination C. performance D. technology
30. Why did some companies transport the e-waste to other countries
A. Lack of available space was the reason for shipping.
B. Recycling was totally banned in their own country.
C. They were running their companies on a tight budget.
D. They were not charged with insecurely disposing it.
31. What’s the suitable title for the text
A. Reusing School Computers B. Recycling Electronic Waste
C. Meeting a challenge D. Doing scientific experiment
【答案】28. B 29. A 30. D 31. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是记叙文。讲述了Alex为解决电子垃圾污染问题,所做出的一系列努力。
【28题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“When Alex Lin was 11 years old, he read an alarming article in the newspaper about e-waste. The article said that people were throwing away their e-waste in places it should never go. This was dangerous, the article said, because e-waste contains poisonous chemicals and metals like lead. These harmful substances (物质) can leak into the environment, getting into crops, animals, water supplies—and people.(当Alex Lin 11岁的时候,他在报纸上读到一篇关于电子垃圾的令人震惊的文章。这篇文章说,人们把电子垃圾扔到不该去的地方。这篇文章说,这很危险,因为电子垃圾含有有毒化学物质和铅等金属。这些有害物质会泄漏到环境中,进入农作物、动物、供水系统和人体内)”以及第二段“Alex showed the article to a few of his classmates. They were worried too. But what could they do about this problem with e-waste How would they even start “The first thing we did,” Alex says, “was to learn more about the problem.” Alex and his friends spent several weeks gathering information about the chemicals in e-waste and their effects on humans. They learned how to dispose (处理) of e-waste properly and how it could be recycled. “Then,” he says, “we had to find out what the situation was in our town. So we sent out a survey.”(亚历克斯把这篇文章拿给几个同学看。他们也很担心。但是他们能做些什么来解决电子垃圾的问题呢 他们是怎么开始的 “我们做的第一件事,”亚历克斯说,“就是更多地了解这个问题。”亚历克斯和他的朋友们花了几个星期收集有关电子垃圾中的化学物质及其对人类影响的信息。他们学会了如何正确处理电子垃圾以及如何回收利用。“然后,”他说,“我们必须弄清楚我们镇上的情况。所以我们进行了一项调查。”)”可知,Alex了解到电子垃圾中有毒物质会对环境造成危害,因此做了一系列的调研等活动可知,他具有很强的责任感。故选B项。
【29题详解】
词句猜测题。根据前文“Alex and his friends went into action. They advertised in the local newspaper and distributed notices to students, asking residents to bring their unwanted electronics to the school parking lot.(亚历克斯和他的朋友们开始行动起来。他们在当地报纸上登广告,并向学生分发通知,要求居民把他们不需要的电子产品带到学校的停车场)”可知,他们在当地报纸打广告,并把通知发给学生,要求居民把不要的电子垃圾产品带到学校停车场,所以这是一次运动,推知drive意为“活动,运动”,和A项意思相近。故选A项。
【30题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段“That was when Alex and his friends learned another scary fact about e-waste—some irresponsible recycling companies don’t break down the e-waste and dispose of it safely themselves. Instead, they ship it overseas to countries such as China and Nigeria, where local environmental laws are not applied.(就在那时,亚历克斯和他的朋友们了解到另一个关于电子垃圾的可怕事实——一些不负责任的回收公司不分解电子垃圾,也不自己安全处理。相反,他们将其运往中国和尼日利亚等不适用当地环境法的国家)”可知,一些不负责的公司会将垃圾运到其它国家,是因为这些国家环保法不健全,在这里不安全的处理垃圾并不会被指控。故选D项。
【31题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“When Alex Lin was 11 years old, he read an alarming article in the newspaper about e-waste. The article said that people were throwing away their e-waste in places it should never go. This was dangerous, the article said, because e-waste contains poisonous chemicals and metals like lead.

As Alex says, “Today’s technology should not become tomorrow’s poisonous trash.”(由于像亚历克斯和他的团队这样的人的工作,越来越多的人得到了安全处理电子垃圾的信息。正如亚历克斯所说,“今天的技术不应该成为明天的有毒垃圾。”)”可知,本文主要讲述了Alex为解决电子垃圾污染问题,所做出的一系列努力,所以B项“Recycling Electronic Waste(回收电子废物)”是本文最好的标题。故选B项。

Songbirds do have a perfect voice. Every species of bird wakes up at a very particular time in the morning and begins to sing. This is because each species has its own specific waking stimulus (刺激), which is linked to the brightness of the sunlight.
Like human beings have to learn to speak, birds also have to learn how to sing. They do this in several stages. First, they practise voices and sounds, which is comparable to the early stage in human language development. During the second stage, the birds practise their songs for eight to nine months, until memory and practice match up. The singing is strengthened during the final stage.
Although nightingales got their name as a result of their singing at night, not all nightingales sing at night. Generally, both males and females sing during the day. The night song is used mainly for seeking partners. After succeeding in attracting a female, the male nightingale falls silent and doesn't start his song again until the early morning.
Birds are seasonal singers. We only hear numerous kinds of bird concerts between spring and high summer. This is the time when birds are looking for partners, and when the males aim to impress the females with their song and mark out their territory at the same time. However, even after they have found a partner, male birds continue to sing, because this is the time when they are showing their offspring (幼崽) how to sing.
Birds don’t all sing as well as others, not even within a species. The song of a bird in London will be quite different from that of a bird in Paris or Berlin. Although the members of each bird species share a vocabulary of sounds, dialect differences are quite common. The individual dialects are not natural but are learnt while the birds are children that adopt the dialect of their parents. The young birds always sing as well or as badly as their teachers, because the adults on whom they model themselves vary in style and talent from region to region.
32. What role does the brightness of sunlight play in birds’ singing
A. It makes them learn songs easily.
B. It affects where they hold concerts.
C. It leads them to find abundant food.
D. It determines when they begin to sing.
33. What’s the reason for male birds continue to sing after finding partners
A. To mark its territory B. To teach its offspring
C. To draw female’s attention D. To drive enemies away
34. When do birds learn individual dialects
A. After they leave their homes B. Before they find partners
C. When they are still young D. When they become grown-up
35. What is the text mainly about
A. The varieties of Birdsong
B. The science of Birds’ singing
C. The living environment of Birds
D. The dialects of Bird Communication
【答案】32. D 33. B 34. C 35. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章对鸣禽的鸣叫特点和动机进行了研究说明。
【32题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“Songbirds do have a perfect voice. Every species of bird wakes up at a very particular time in the morning and begins to sing. This is because each species has its own specific waking stimulus (刺激), which is linked to the brightness of the sunlight.(鸣禽确实有完美的声音。每一种鸟都在早晨的特定时间醒来并开始歌唱。这是因为每个物种都有自己特定的清醒刺激,这与阳光的亮度有关)”可知,光线的亮度会刺激不同的鸟类在特定的时间醒来,因此阳光的亮度可以决定鸟儿的鸣叫时间。故选D项。
【33题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段“However, even after they have found a partner, male birds continue to sing, because this is the time when they are showing their offspring (幼崽) how to sing.(然而,即使它们找到了伴侣,雄鸟也会继续唱歌,因为这是它们向后代展示如何唱歌的时候)”可知,雄鸟在找到配偶后继续歌唱的原因是教育它的后代。故选B项。
【34题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段“Although the members of each bird species share a vocabulary of sounds, dialect differences are quite common. The individual dialects are not natural but are learnt while the birds are children that adopt the dialect of their parents.(虽然每种鸟类都有相同的发音词汇,但方言的差异是相当普遍的。个体的方言不是天生的,而是后天习得的,而鸟类则是孩子,他们会接受父母的方言)”可知,个体方言并不是天生的,而是幼鸟时期从父母那里学来的。故选C项。
【35题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“Songbirds do have a perfect voice. Every species of bird wakes up at a very particular time in the morning and begins to sing. This is because each species has its own specific waking stimulus (刺激), which is linked to the brightness of the sunlight.(鸣禽确实有完美的声音。每一种鸟都在早晨的特定时间醒来并开始歌唱。这是因为每个物种都有自己特定的清醒刺激,这与阳光的亮度有关)”和第二段“Like human beings have to learn to speak, birds also have to learn how to sing. They do this in several stages. First, they practise voices and sounds, which is comparable to the early stage in human language development. During the second stage, the birds practise their songs for eight to nine months, until memory and practice match up. The singing is strengthened during the final stage.(就像人类要学会说话一样,鸟类也要学会唱歌。他们分几个阶段来做这件事。首先,他们练习声音和发音,这与人类语言发展的早期阶段相当。在第二阶段,鸟儿练习它们的歌曲8到9个月,直到记忆和练习相匹配。歌唱在最后阶段加强)”以及纵观全文可知,文章主要阐述了对鸟儿鸣啼的科学研究成果。故选B项。

They allow you to experience achievement and therefore allow you to reward yourself, finally contributing to the improvement of your motivation and driving you to achieve more. (小目标很重要。它们让你体验成就,从而让你奖励自己,最终有助于提高你的动力,推动你取得更多成就)”主要说明了小目标的重要性,说明其作用,因此B项“Set up bite-sized goals (设定小目标)”符合语境,建议设定小目标,契合段落内容,适合作为标题,其中的bite-sized goals和段落中的Bite-sized goals是同词复现。故选B。
【37题详解】
本段小标题“Have a clear idea and be intentional (有心的) (有一个明确的想法,并有意为之)”建议明确想法,并跟着该想法去行动,后文“having detailed goals in mind, writing them down, and describing them are some of the first steps to be successful (在脑海中有详细的目标,把它们写下来,描述出来,这些都是成功的第一步)”描述了标题中明确想法的操作,说明其重要性,因此D项“Knowing where you want to go (知道你想去哪里)”符合语境,提出要知道去哪儿,引出后续的操作,呼应标题中的Have a clear idea。故选D。
【38题详解】
前文“There is no point in doing something if you’re not intentional about what you do. (如果你不是有意为之,那么做一件事是没有意义的)”强调了意愿对于做事的意义,后文“even a small stone in your path will stop you (即使是路上的一块小石头也会阻止你)”说明了一种负面的情况,因此E项“If you don’t want to achieve something (如果你不想有所成就)”符合语境,假设没有意愿的情形,承前启后,引出后面的情况。故选E。

前文“It’s also important to look at your mistakes as chances to improve yourself. (把你的错误看作是提高自己的机会也很重要)”建议积极地看待错误,使之成为提高自己的机会,后文“If, for example, you work on a project that receives unpleasant comments, use those comments to improve your project and present it again. (例如,如果你从事的项目收到了不愉快的评论,请使用这些评论来改进你的项目并再次提交)”给出具体例子,展示如何对待错误,因此G项“Learn from them and quickly put the learning into action (向它们学习,并迅速将所学付诸行动)”符合语境,说明应从错误中学习,承接前文对待错误的态度,引出后文的例子,其中的them指代前文的your mistakes。故选G。
【40题详解】
前文“Also, you can look back and remind yourself of what you’ve already achieved, and don’t undervalue any of them. (同时,你可以回顾并提醒自己已经取得的成就,不要低估其中任何一个)”补充说明可以回顾自己的成就,因此C项“They prove you can do it (它们证明你可以做到)”符合语境,表明这些成就的作用,承接前文,其中的They指代前文的what you’ve already achieved。故选C。

The Girl Who Never Talked
I never really felt like I fit in. I was a freshman in high school and my only close friend was Bella, whom I had known since kindergarten. Bella is and will always be one of my best friends and we often play together. However, she had other close friends too, but I didn't. I was on the volleyball team, and on the court I knew exactly who I was and where I was supposed to be. I loved all of my teammates, but when we were sitting in the stands before and after games I would just sit there quietly, totally unsure of myself.
At school, no one spoke to me and I didn't know how to get along with them. It seems like the only time anyone talked to me was just to jokingly say, "You are so quiet!... do you ever talk " I wanted to talk, but I just couldn't find the words. I never felt like I knew what to say in a big group of people. All of these made me upset.
One Saturday after our game, Bella was supposed to come over and spend the night at my house. We always had a lot of fun together. I wished that I could talk to the other girls the way I talked to her. But before we left the gym that day, some of the other volleyball girls invited her to go to the movies with them. Since Bella had already made plans with me, they asked if I would like to go to the movies with them too. I agreed and was happy to have a chance to join them.
One of the moms drove us, and we all piled into the back seat of her Suburban-Rhiannon, Destinee, Christine, Bella, and me. I was kind of nervous at first, but once it was just us five, I came out of my shell (壳). For the first time in my life, I really felt like I was a part of the conversation, instead of just sitting there listening. It turned out that I had a lot to say.
