W: Hello everyone. This is Face-to-Face from Radio 1. With us today is the legendary tennis player Roger Federer. Welcome, Mr. Federer.
M: Thank you for having me here.
W: So, Mr. Federer, we all know that you retired at the age of 41. How long did your professional tennis career last
M: Well, I picked up the racket when I was 3 and turned professional at the age of 17.
W: That’s a really long time. It’s interesting to note that you were also on the junior national football team. Why did you choose tennis in the end Did your parents have a say in your decision
M: I have to say, no. They didn’t have too much expectation on me, but they always support my decision. I found myself more into tennis when I was 13. And here I am.
W: A wise decision. Throughout your career, you played more than 1,500 matches. What kept you going
M: I always believe that I was given a special talent. I became a top 100 player in just seven months. Also, my competitors on court pushed me so hard that I had to keep on bettering my skills to win as many matches as I could. The support from my amazing family, team and friends was another reason.
W: Then, what’s your most unforgettable match
M: It was the 2017 Australian Open. At that time, I hadn’t trained for almost 6 months because of my severe knee injury. I received an operation and it took me a long time to recover. I hadn’t expected that I would make it to the final and win my title.
W: Amazing! How did you do that
M: I guess it was my firm belief and desire to win that helped me along the journey. As I always say, if you believe, you can go really far in your life. And on the tennis court, that is to win the championship.
W: Indeed. So sad that our time is up. Thank you, Mr. Federer.

Text10:
W: Dumplings are a style of food that can be found about everywhere you go. They have many names but may be the most delicious food around the world. In the most basic sense, a dumpling consists of the skin and fillings. As is known, China is the dumpling capital of the world. Jiaozi is a Chinese dumpling. It typically consists of a ground meat and vegetable filling wrapped into a thinly rolled piece of dough. It may be divided into various types depending on how they are cooked. Miyazawa, a Japanese cook, says, “Japanese dumplings came from China at the beginning, but Chinese dumplings are mostly boiled. However, gyoza, a pan-fried meat dumpling, is more common in Japan. It is in a half-moon shape. Its bottom is crispy while the top is softer, thanks to how it is steamed after being pan-fried.” In my hometown, local people tend to call ravioli the Italian dumpling on account of its similar shape. However, they are actually a kind of pasta. Although they are food in the form of “dumplings”, there are big differences in their fillings, cooking methods and sauces that will go with them. For instance, ravioli are in square shape and the fillings can be cheese besides meat and vegetables.

A
All dogs can benefit from training throughout their lives. But where to begin the process Thus, we have consulted some experts on where to start. Here’s what they say.
Identify your training goals
There are two levels of dog training. If you’re interested in skill training, or basic manners, such as teaching your dog to sit, stay and lie down, that’s the field of a dog trainer. If your dog has a behavior problem—anxiety, aggressiveness, fearfulness—then what you need is a dog behavioral consultant.
Be realistic
Your dog may bark at your guests, which might be a kind of dog that has been selected for hundreds of years to defend against people walking in your front door. Since you can’t change a German shepherd’s genetic impulse (基因冲动) to defend its territory, you may need to change your expectations, instead.
Decide how you’d like to train your dog
When it comes to training methods, you have a few options. Group classes are cheaper but less personalized, while board and training facilities are more expensive and riskier. Your choice will depend on your budget and your training goals. If you don’t want to pay a lot of money for dog training, you can choose free or low-cost resources you can find online.
Understand the methods
Generally speaking, many trainers fall into two broad categories: The first is positive reinforcement (强化) trainers, which means giving your dog something good to train. The second is balanced trainers who are willing to make incorporate corrections, which means using positive reinforcement methods.
Click here to get more information to train your dogs.
21.Who should you ask if your dogs are aggressive
A.A dog behavioral trainer. B.A dog behavioral consultant.
C.A reinforcement trainer. D.A balanced trainer.
22.What’s the benefit if your dog attends the group classes
A.It can socialize better. B.It can learn more skills.
C.You can save money. D.You can build stronger bonds with it.
23.Where does the text most likely appear
A.On a website. B.In a story book.
C.In a pet brochure. D.In a biological study.
B
While a healthy diet has always been considered necessary for overall wellness, historically, many hospitals have overlooked its powerful potential for healing. In some areas, that’s beginning to change. In Pennsylvania four years ago, St. Luke’s Hospital partnered with Rodale Institute to start an organic produce farm at the hospital’s campus in Easton. Since its first season, the St. Luke’s farm has expanded to grow 100 fruit and vegetable breed on 11 acres.
Hospital farms are part of broader movement to make organic, locally produced food accessible to the general population. Some hospitals are making it a priority to source food from nearby farms, while others are turning deserted land on their grounds into community gardens. By making organic produce easily accessible to the patients and visitors alike, these hospitals hope to inspire lifelong changes for better health. Even though most hospital farms aren’t growing enough to completely supply their staff and patient food needs, providing even a small amount of fresh produce makes an educational statement about how healthy and delicious a plant-rich diet can be.
While the movement continues to gain attraction, it’s encountering some challenges along the way. For example, health workers don’t necessarily know how to grow food. This means that most hospitals need to hire a full-time farmer and other farm labor to manage the property, which can be expensive. It takes between 3 and 5 years for most hospital farms to break even, much less save money on food costs. Nonetheless, participating hospitals believe that the benefits are worthwhile. As the movement continues to expand, you might soon experience a farm-fresh meal at a hospital near you.
24.What change is taking place in St. Luke’s hospital according to Paragraph 1
A.Expanding the planting area of organic food.
B.Understanding better the role of a healthy diet.
C.Starting an organic farm at the hospital alone.
D.Neglecting the healing power of organic produce.
25.How do hospital farms make organic food more available to the public
A.By inspiring staff to grow more. B.By growing food in nearby farms.
C.By purchasing more land as farms. D.By gardening on the deserted land.
26.What is the challenge of the movement
A.The rising cost of foods. B.The inefficient management.
C.The public less-open attitude. D.The lack of workforce with planting skills.
27.What do the hospitals involved think of the movement
A.Doubtful. B.Optimistic. C.Critical. D.Passive.
C
My philosophy professor was a typical eccentric philosopher, whose behavior was somewhat strange. His disheveled (蓬乱的) appearance was highlighted by a well-worn tweed (粗花呢) sport coat and poor-fitting thick glasses, which often rested on the tip of his nose. Every now and then, as most philosophy professors do, he would go off on one of those existential “what's the meaning of life” discussions. Many of those discussions went nowhere, but there were a few that really hit home. This was one of them:
“Respond to the following questions by a show of hands, ” my professor instructed.
“How many of you can tell me something about your parents ” Everyone's hand went up.
“How many of you can tell me something about your grandparents ” About three-fourths of the class raised their hands.
“How many of you can tell me something about your great-grandparents ” Two out of sixty students raised their hands.
“Look around the room, ” he said. “In just two short generations hardly any of us even know who our own great-grandparents were. Oh sure, maybe we have an old photograph tucked (收藏) away in a musty cigar box or know the classic family story about how one of them walked five miles to school barefoot. But how many of us really know who they were, what they thought, what they were proud of, what they were afraid of, or what they dreamed about Think about that. Within three generations our ancestors are all but forgotten. Will this happen to you ”
“Here’s a better question. Look ahead three generations. You are long gone. Instead of you sitting in this room, now it’s your great-grandchildren. What will they have to say about you Will they know about you Or will you be forgotten, too ”
“Is your life going to be a warning or an example What legacy will you leave The choice is yours. Class dismissed.”
Nobody rose from their seats for a good five minutes.
28.Which of the following can best describe the professor
A.Untidy but considerate.
B.Odd but thoughtful.
C.Fashionable and helpful.
D.Neat and responsible.
29.Why does the professor mention “photograph” and “family story” in Paragraph 6
A.To share his own interesting stories.
B.To suggest new ways to know the ancestors.
C.To prove they are good ways to know the ancestors.
D.To show people's understanding of the ancestors are shallow.
30.What can we know about this philosophy class
A.It aroused our thinking about life.
B.It went nowhere like the previous ones.
C.The professor was unsatisfied with our answers.
D.The professor offered us his answers to the questions.
31.What is the best title of the passage
A.Our philosophy professor.
B.A lesson about legacy.
C.Our memorable ancestors.
D.A gap among three generations.
D
Animal keepers use the term enrichment to describe the introduction of environmental stimuli into the surroundings of caged animals. In recent years, “environmental enrichment” also known as behavioral enrichment, providing animals with challenges, opportunities, and stimulation that are species-appropriate, has grown more popular in zoos and aquariums. A latest study does, however, identify potential to “diversify the enrichment types being supplied and the species being examined.”
The study conducted by the University of Exeter and Sparsholt College, Hampshire, looked into whether zoo enrichment is based on evidence of what each species requires. It was discovered that this was true for specific animals as well as certain forms of enrichment, but the quantities of both could be larger, especially the samples of certain species of animals. “Based on our findings, we would encourage zoos to continue enrichment, but with a stronger emphasis on using available knowledge on what works for each species. Keepers should also consider what behaviors are being taught and whether there is evidence that this behavior is normal and good in the long run.” stated University of Exeter’s Dr. Paul Rose.
The research looked at a database of peer-reviewed works as well as two magazines for zoo workers. Almost 77 percent of the enrichment articles identified focused on mammals, with 11 percent on birds, 6 percent on considerable species, 4 percent on reptiles, and only a few on some other species. This emphasis on popular species may result in greater and higher-quality enrichment for some species than others. What’s more, in the case of mammals, the application of biological evidence to inform this enrichment was inconsistent.
There are many ways to enrich an animal’s surroundings such as adjusting animal care, forming social groups, and enhancing sensory stimulation. The purpose of any enrichment program should be to generate ideas for providing a species-appropriate stimulating environment that encourages positive behaviors while keeping in mind that both species and individuals will have varied demands.
32.What does the latest study mentioned in the passage want to figure out
A.The real situation of zoo enrichment. B.The final evidence of zoo enrichment.
C.The possible future of zoo enrichment. D.The original purpose of zoo enrichment.
33.How did the writer prove his statement in paragraph 3
A.By giving a database. B.By doing persuasion.
C.By discussing the data. D.By presenting an example.
34.What are not enough about the environmental enrichment according to the passage
A.The lasting challenges and opportunities.
B.The space of the zoos and the keepers’ knowledge.
C.The enrichment types, the animal species and numbers.
D.The stimuli the keepers give and the articles the keepers write.
35.Which could be the best title of this passage
A.More Zoo Keepers Should Be Developed B.Enrichment of Zoos Could Be Expanded
C.Articles on Enrichment Could Be Published D.Environmental Enrichment Should Be Encouraged

True beauty is not found in looks. 36 Changing the way you think about beauty will give you life-long confidence.
Place your beauty in your identity but not your identity in your beauty. If you hold onto youthful beauty as a narrow definition of yourself, you won’t enjoy your looks as you age. 37 Mirrors tell us only a part of what we show to the outer world. Go past your reflection and see the real self!
The fountain of youth doesn’t exist. Despite many anti-aging products, there is no magic solution to stopping the effects of aging. You should stop devaluing (贬低) yourself just because you are getting older. Aim for a healthy life and keep yourself strong and fit. Eat healthy diet and be committed to a daily exercise routine. Lots of efforts are needed. 38
Beauty relates to physical and psychological aspects. 39 However, Serena Williams never hides her unusual muscular physique. Instead, her showing her muscles enhances her appeal. Many fans think she is beautiful. This proves that looking beautiful and attractive goes beyond our looks.
40 Beauty matters to all women, but to those who age beautifully, it matters neither too much nor too little. Do enjoy our lives to the fullest, True beauty is about accepting yourself. It is also about feeling good about yourself.
A.Everyone does it.
B.It comes from the inside.
C.Go beyond your mirror image.
D.You will feel better over a long term.
E.It’s human nature to believe beauty is everything.
F.People generally think beauty is only a skin-deep issue.
G.Be less scared of aging and you will look more beautiful.
