13-year-old Ava Dorsey is the founder of Ava's Pet Palace,a business that sells organic dog and cat treats."I actually had the idea when I was six with a picture I drew of a palace,"she says.It was a detailed design for dogs and cats and she had serious plans to build it one day.
Unlike most dog treats that you find in stores,dog treats sold by Ava's Pet Palace are 100%organic,and are non-GMO(非转基因).Ava has set a goal for herself with these dog treats,and she wants every treat to be healthy,tasty,and top-quality.Seriously,some of her treats sound delicious enough for people to eat! "All of my bags now have the USDA organic stamp,and we're very excited to have gotten it because it's something I've wanted for a long time,"she says."A lot of stores like to see organic products because customers like it,so that was really exciting."
Ava says the biggest challenge of being a kid in business is when people don't take her seriously,but undoubtedly Ava has proved that her doubters are wrong!When asked how she defines(定义) success,Ava says,"When you hit a bump in the road,you shouldn't give up and you keep trying."She learned that from her mom,who sounds like a smart lady!Some more things Ava has learned from her years in business:Hard work eventually pays off and there is nothing wrong with asking for help.
As far as the future of the pet treats industry goes,Ava is optimistic——but she'd also like to be an inspiration for change."There's not much diversity(多样性) right now,so that's something I would love to see in the future,"says Ava."I would also love to see more kids in this industry.There aren't many other teenagers around,and I hope that I can be an inspiration to others who hope to lead the pet industry."

Mushrooms (蘑菇) usually grow on dark,damp forest floors or fallen tree branches.Now a company in Abu Dhabi has found a way to grow them in the middle of the desert.
Below Farm is producing special mushrooms.Co-founder Bronte Weir says the indoor farm,about 45 minutes' drive from downtown Abu Dhabi,is the first in the region to grow and sell high-end mushrooms.Below Farm's offerings are better than imported mushrooms,she says,because mushrooms lose their freshness quickly.
Weir co-founded the company in 2021,in cooperation with Liliana Slowinska and Wojciech Slowinski.They mainly sell the mushrooms to restaurants and stores.Also,they sell mushrooms directly to customers.
Weir says that existing indoor mushroom-growing technology,developed mainly in Europe and the United States,isn't designed for Abu Dhabi's high daytime temperatures,which can top 40 degrees Celsius in summer.
Wojciech Slowinski took the lead in developing a solution.The farm consists of four special chambers (室) covered in a foot-deep layer of insulation (隔热材料) to help keep the space cool. "We can create the right conditions for each type of mushroom," says Weir.Maintaining higher air pressure inside the rooms helps to protect the crops from Abu Dhabi's winds and dust.
Raj Dagstan ,who runs a restaurant,is a fan of Below Farm. "The best-tasting pizza on the menu is the mushroom," says Dagstani,adding that he created the dish after he tried out Below Farm's mushrooms.He now orders 20 kilograms of mushrooms a week from the company.According to market intelligence experts,the global mushroom market grew by over 9% last year and continues to expand,partly due to the popularity of plant-based diets.
8.Where does Below Farm probably lie? ______
A. In uptown Abu Dhabi. B. In the center of Abu Dhabi.
C. In a dark deep forest. D. In the grassland of the desert.
9.What does Bronte Weir do? ______
A. A partner in Below Farm. B. A founder of Abu Dhabi.
C. A manager of a restaurant. D. A scientist in farming.
10.What can we learn about the new indoor mushroom-growing technology? ______
A. It provides fresh air inside the rooms.
B. It helps to keep the heat out of the chambers.
C. It offers a new way to keep mushrooms fresh.
D. It promotes the development of mushroom varieties.
11.What can be inferred from Raj Dagstani's words? ______
A. Plant-based diets becomes more popular.
B. His restaurant sells the best-tasting pizza.
C. The global mushroom market is promising.
D. The Below Farm's mushrooms are of high quality.
D
Smartphones and other digital devices control and consume our attention.This is true for young people.On public transport,they are checking social media or playing an addictive game rather than sleeping.Very few people are reading a book or having a conversation with fellow travelers.
Children today are digital natives.This means they have never known life without internet access.They have been raised on clicks.They jump from content to content without a second thought.In the words of the philosopher Han in his 2021 book Non-things,this kind of nonstop excitement means that we quickly come to need a new exciter.We get used to seeing reality as a source of exciters and surprises.We struggle to focus our attention on any one thing.This will disturb our cognitive (认知) system.
Books can train the brain to deeply focus its attention on one task while mobile devices encourage us to hang over the surface of things,but we do not fully grasp them.When we receive information in large amounts,it stops being meaningful.When faced with a large amount of it,our brains react by blocking the information.But the discarded content does not simply disappear from our minds.Instead,it remains.This prevents us from figuring out what we are interested in.It limits our attention length.
Mobile phone addiction and the way young people learn are both directly connected to the concept of mind wandering.Too much information input makes us switch off and lose attention.And this can be damaging in the long term.
In order to recover attention,the brain needs to take a break.It needs to find time and space where it can be free from constant noise.Adults can make the effort to find these much-needed spaces to focus attention.Children,on the other hand,have not yet gained this.They run the risk of never recovering their attention spans.If we give children and teenagers access to digital devices before they have developed these skills,their attention will be free to wander.It will then become harder and harder for them to focus on a task for the necessary amount of time.
12.What is a common scene among the young on public transport? ______
A. They are talking with each other.
B. They are usually sleeping.
C. Most of them are absorbed in reading.
D. They are lost in their phones.
13.What does Han think of too much clicking smartphones? ______
A. It reduces our ability to focus.
B. It weakens our need for fun immediately.
C. It increases our interest in traditional media.
D. It enables us to see reality as a source of surprises.
14.What is Paragraph 3 mainly about? ______
A. Mobile devices help us to fully understand books.
B. Smartphone addiction stops us forming a lasting attention.
C. Being exposed to smartphone information blocks our brain.
D. The information we get will disappear soon from our minds.
15.Where is the text probably taken from? ______
A. A science magazine. B. A book review.
C. A biology textbook. D. A smartphone ad.

The following day in the park,she walked to the boy and the old lady who often led him away.The boy recognized Lily and looked around for her dog. "It's okay.Bruno isn't with me today," she said.Then she asked the old lady why the boy was always sitting sad and lonely.
"I'm his grandma," the lady replied. "His parents died in an accident.His name is Roy."

(4)推理判断题。根据最后一段中"The best-tasting pizza on the menu is the mushroom," says Dagstani,adding that he created the dish after he tried out Below Farm's mushrooms.('菜单上最美味的披萨是蘑菇。'他补充说,他在尝试了Below Farm的蘑菇后创造了这道菜。)可推知,Below Farm的蘑菇品质很高。故选D项。
