1.Anxiety has followed me around like a lost dog looking for a bone for years now. I feel it the most strongly when I'm worried about my health or my daughter's health. I feel an unusual sensation and all of a sudden: panic! My worries are not limited to health concerns though, and they go in the direction of anxiety about the future of the world, worries about my finances, and fears that I'm not good enough.
I had a sensation of falling, as if in a dream.

She is always polite and considerate towards her employees.

4.I think the reason why painting is so helpful for my anxiety is that, in order for me to be anxious, I have to be worrying about the future and what it holds. When I'm doing an activity that requires my full concentration, I have to be in the moment. It doesn't matter if you're artistic. The only thing that matters is finding a way to be here, in the now, instead of in the unknowable future.
26.How does painting relieve the writer's anxiety

1.Eating insects is one of those ideas that never quite seem to catch on. The United Nations spread the idea a decade ago, but, in the West at least, insects remain mostly absent from supermarket shelves. Faced with an unsatisfied public, scientists have been exploring other options. One is to feed the insects instead to farm animals, which are not so picky.
What was the UN intended to do
Are people willing to eat insects
What’s the alternative
(　　)31. What can be a suitable title of the article A. Waste recycling will be taking off soonB. Eating insects is the new option for peopleC. Insects could help turn beer waste into beefD. Insects could gain popularity in supermarket
C
2.Of course, the insects need to eat, too. To date, they have mostly reared(饲养) on leftover chicken feed. But the supply of that is limited, and if insect reared meat is to take off, new sources will be needed. Niels Eriksen, a biochemist at Aalborg University, suggests feeding them on the waste products of the beer industry.

6.The experiment may have implications beyond the beer business, too. Bone meal from farms, and waste from other food industries are all likewise plentiful and protein rich.
The development of the site will have implications for the surrounding countryside.

1.AI could make it less necessary to learn foreign languages. That is good news for travelers, bad news for soulful connection.
2.Travel has long been a motivator for study—unless people start to feel AI tools offer a good enough service. Some are concerned that apps are turning language acquisition into a dwindling pursuit. Douglas Hofstadter, a writer, has argued that something important will disappear when people talk through machines. He describes giving a hesitant, difficult speech in Mandarin, which required a lot of work but offered a sense of achievement at the end. Who would show off taking_a_plane_to_the_top_of_Mount_Everest
3.Others are less worried. ......
different attitudes to AI translators
People in para 2 are ________ to using AI translators and they are ___________ as for learning and using foreign language on their own.
opposed
supportive
No. 32 33
D
4.As AI translation becomes a more popular labour saving tool, people will divide into two groups. There will be those who want to challenge their minds, put themselves in other cultures or force their thinking into new pathways. This lot will still take on language study, often aided by technology. Others will look at learning a new language with a mix of admiration and confusion, as they might with extreme endurance(忍耐力) sports: “Good for you, if that's your thing, but a bit painful for my taste.”
What are the two groups
34. Which of the following will the “Others” in paragraph 4 agree with
D
But a focus on the learner alone misses the fundamentally social nature of language. It is a bit like analyzing the benefits of close relationships to heart health but overlooking the inner value of those bonds themselves. When you try to ask directions in broken Japanese or make a joke in hesitant German, you are making direct contact with someone. And when you speak a language well enough to tell a story with perfect timing or put subtle(微妙的) shading on an argument, that connection is still deeper.
(　　)35. What can we learn from the last paragraph A. Language learning benefits learners alone. B. Language learning is of value to human health. C. We should reflect on language learning methods. D. We should adopt a new angle on language learning.
