Upcoming Food Festivals in Summer
Stuttgarter Weindorf(Stuttgart,Germany),August 21-25
This food festival celebrates wine on the land of beer.
German wine is obviously underrated.Stuttgart’s annual Weindorf sees 28 open air restaurants serving more than 500 wines from Baden and Wurttemberg,with reds,whites,roses and sparkling versions all available.Fresh pretzels and chocolates will also be available to help mop up the alcohol.
Matstreif(Oslo,Norway),July 11-12
With a wide variety of dishes available at wallet-sparing prices,this event sees more than 200 food stalls open for business in Oslo’s City Hall Square.
Bold foodies should try“rakfisk”—rotten fish.If that sounds a bit much,there’s always“svele”,a kind of pancake that originates from western Norway.
Loch Lomond Food and Drink Festival(Loch Lomond,Scotland),August 4-6
The 10th annual edition of this festival offers one of the best showcases for Scottish produce.On the menu are local specialties and venison(鹿肉) from the surrounding national park.
For those who like a competitive edge with their lunch,there’s even a“haggis” eating contest that pits eight hungry visitors against each other to see who can eat a pound of the local food.
Cheese 2023(Bra,Italy),August 27-September 2
The name is a bit of a giveaway here.This bi-annual event sees Italy’s best cheese makers gather on the small town of Bra.
It’s free to visit,although plenty of euros are needed to pay for samples and trying out some of the courses on offer.Whatever they are hunting for,cheese lovers will be well taken care of.They just need to make sure there’s time for a post-cheese snooze before the next round of cheese tasting.

A librarian in Indonesia’s Java island is lending books to children in exchange for trash to clean up the environment and get the kids to read more.
Each weekday Raden Roro Hendarti rides her three-wheeler with books stacked up at the back for children in Muntang village to exchange for plastic cups,bags and other waste that she carries back.
She told Reuters she is helping promote reading in the kids as well as making them aware of the environment.As soon as she shows up,little children,many accompanied by their mothers,surround her “Trash Library” and shout for the books.They are all carrying trash bags and Raden’s three-wheeler quickly fills up with them as the books fly out.She’s happy the kids are going to spend less time on online games as a result.
“Let us build a culture of literacy from young age to lessen the harm of the online world,” Raden said.“We should also take care of our waste in order to fight climate change and to save the earth from trash,” Raden said.She collects about 100 kg of waste each week,which is then sorted out by her colleagues and sent for recycling or sold.She has a stock of 6,000 books to lend and wants to take the mobile service to neighboring areas as well.
Kevin Alamsyah,an 11-year-old book lover,searches for waste lying in the village.“When there is too much trash,our environment will become dirty and it’s not healthy.That’s why I look for trash to borrow a book,” he says.
Jiah Palupi,the head of the main public library in the area,said Raden’s work strengthened their efforts in a novel way to battle online gaming addiction among the youth and promote reading.
The literacy rate for above-15-year-olds in Indonesia is around 96 percent,but a September report by the World Bank warned that the pandemic will leave more than 80% of 15-year-olds below the minimum reading proficiency level identified by the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development.
8.What can we know about the “Trash Library”
A.It is much welcomed by kids and their parents.
B.It mainly lends books about environment to kids.

B.People in Indonesia have a very low literacy rate.
C.The trash library has been introduced to many other cities.

Every day,we face a series of opportunities to do the right thing.Sometimes we seize(抓住)those moments;other times,we don’t. 1 And what drives some people to take the moral high ground
Jessie Sun interviewed 952 people about the motivations(动机) for moral behavior and the changes they wished to make in their lives in order to become more morally good.
When we think about morals,we often think about making “personal sacrifices(牺牲)” for the greater good.In Sun’s study,she found that nearly half of the participants said they were most encouraged to become more moral for themselves. 2 And fewer participants said that they most wanted to benefit friends and people in general.
Moreover,many people believe that acting more morally—for example,being more thoughtful,more open-minded—would increase their own well-being.The more they believed that their moral change would have positive results for themselves,the more they reported being encouraged to make that change. 3 That was the most surprising finding in the study.
4 Interestingly,participants generally expected possible harms to themselves and others if they were honest.You can imagine that some people regularly tell white lies to save other people’s feelings,and they believe it would be hurtful if they were honest.
Researchers also asked people about the things they’d like to improve about themselves.If they’re extremely shy,they usually want to become more comfortable in social situations.But if they aren’t especially honest or thoughtful,they usually won’t improve those aspects of their lives on purpose. 5
A.How can we become more moral
B.So,why do we make these choices
C.Being moral just isn’t what most people consider first.
D.Being moral means different things to different people.
E.But people see some disadvantages of being moral,too.
F.In short,many people want to become more moral for their own benefits.
G.Sixteen percent said that they most wanted to become more moral for their family.

Valerie L.Thomas is an African American scientist and inventor best known for her patented(专利的) illusion transmitter(幻觉发射器) and contributions to NASA research.
Thomas was born in 1943 in Maryland.She was interested in science as a child.At the age of eight,her curiosity about how things worked inspired her to borrow a book called The Boy’s First Book of Radio and Electronics,which she took home hoping her father would help her take on some projects in it.However,he didn’t help her.
She attended an all-girls high school that did not help her with hands on projects either.But this changed in college,when Thomas was admitted to Morgan State University as one of the only two women in her class to major in physics.Thomas excelled in her studies.She graduated with excellent results and accepted a position as a data analyst at NASA.
In the 1970s,she managed the development of the image-processing systems for Landsat,the first satellite(人造卫星) to send images to the Earth from space.In 1980,Thomas received a patent for an illusion transmitter.The device produces optical illusion images by means of two concave mirrors(凹面镜).Unlike flat mirrors,which produce images that appear to be inside,or behind the mirror,concave mirrors create images that appear to be real,or in front of the mirror itself.This technology was later used by NASA and has since been adapted for use in surgery(外科手术) as well as the production of television and video screens.
Thomas continued to work for NASA until her retirement in 1995.Over the course of her career,Thomas contributed widely to the study of space.She helped develop computer program designs that supported research on Halley’s Comet,the ozone layer,and satellite technology.For her achievements,Thomas received a number of NASA awards including the Goddard Space Flight Center Award of Merit and the NASA Equal Opportunity Medal.

As more and more people speak the global languages of English,Chinese,Spanish,and Arabic,other languages are rapidly disappearing.In fact,half of the 6,000-7,000 languages spoken around the world today will likely die out by the next century,according to the United Nations Educational,Scientific,an Cultural Organization (UNESCO).
In an effort to prevent language loss,scholars from a number of organizations—UNESCO and National Geographic among them—have for many years been documenting dying languages and the cultures they reflect.
Mark Turin,a scientist at the Macmillan Center,Yale University,who specializes in the languages and oral traditions of the Himalayas,is following in that tradition.His recently published book,A Grammar of Thangmi with an Ethnolinguistic Introduction to the Speakers and Their Culture,grows out of his experience living,working,and raising a family in a village in Nepal.
Documenting the Thangmi language and culture is just a starting point for Turin,who seeks to include other languages and oral traditions across the Himalayan reaches of India,Nepal,Bhutan,and China.But he is not content to simply record these voices before they disappear without record.
At the University of Cambridge,Turin discovered a wealth of important materials—including photographs,films,tape recordings,and field notes—which had remained unstudied and were badly in need of care and protection.
Now,through the two organizations that he has founded—the Digital Himalaya Project and the World Oral Literature Project—Turin has started a campaign to make such documents found in libraries and stores around the world,available not just to scholars but to the younger generations of communities from whom the materials were originally collected.Thanks to digital technology and the widely available Internet,Turin notes,the endangered languages can be saved and reconnected with speech communities.
5.What are many scholars making efforts to do
A.To promote global languages.
B.To rescue disappearing languages.
C.To search for language communities.
D.To set up language research organizations.
6.What does “that tradition” in paragraph 3 refer to
A.Having full records of the languages.
B.Writing books on language teaching.
C.Telling stories about language users.
D.Living with the native speakers.
7.What is Turin’s book based on
A.The cultural studies in India.
B.The documents available at Yale.
C.His language research in Bhutan.
D.His personal experience in Nepal.
8.Which of the following best describes Turin’s work
A.Write and donate.
B.Record and reward.
C.Collect,protect and reconnect.
D.Experiment and report.

What would you think is the most plentiful man-made material on earth Steel,plastic,glass The answer is concrete.
And while it’s an incredibly useful material existing everywhere,the energy intensive process of making concrete releases massive amounts of CO2 into the atmosphere,and its main component,which is a mixture of rocks,sand,water and most importantly,cement(水泥) to glue it altogether,is responsible for 7 percent of global CO2 emissions,leaving a huge carbon footprint.But without cement,concrete doesn’t hold up skyscrapers.
What if there was a way that instead of releasing carbon dioxide,concrete could trap it forever Carbon Cure is kind of the brains of the technology.This innovation puts carbon dioxide into the concrete as it’s being mixed.When the concrete hardens,those otherwise harmful emissions are trapped forever,before they even reach our atmosphere.Christie Gamble,part of the team behind Carbon Cure’s technology,explained,“We actually transform the CO2 into a mineral,and the real selling point is that the mineral itself improves the compressive(压缩的) strength for the concrete,which means producers like Thomas Concrete can use less cement in their mixtures and still achieve the same strength with fewer emissions.”
Compression tests prove that the concrete made with Carbon Cure is just as hardy as the traditional stuff.If we can reduce 5 percent of the carbon footprint of the concrete industry,that’s a significant change from where we’re right now.Ultimately,if this technology was employed across the globe,we could reduce about 700 megatons of CO2 every year,which is the same as taking 150 million cars off the road every year.
It’s going to change the way the concrete industry does things.Though companies pay to use Carbon Cure and buy CO2 from a factory,they save money by using less of their most expensive cement.
9.What’s the main focus on concrete in paragraph 2
A.Its makeup.
B.Its serious air pollution.
C.Its daily use.
D.Its producing process.
10.How does Carbon Cure work
A.By adding a new mineral to CO2.
B.By hardening the concrete more quickly.
C.By improving the quality of the cement.
D.By trapping carbon dioxide in the concrete.
11.In what way does the author illustrate the eco-benefit of Carbon Cure
A.By making comparisons.
B.By giving examples.
C.By analyzing cause and effect.
D.By providing evidence.
12.What is the purpose of this text
A.To present a problem.
B.To explain a process.

Hanfu,traditional Chinese costumes and a cultural carrier,has gained more attention from foreigners living in China.
“I can’t believe I’ve been in China for three years and I’ve never tried on hanfu,”Stephanie Stone,a reporter at China Daily,said in an interview she hosted.For her first hanfu experience,she went out and met Jongmay Urbonya,who is a US hanfu lover as well as a key Internet opinion leader.Looking at all of the hanfu in a hanfu store,Urbonya said,“This is my dream for my future life and my life now.”
As a foreigner wearing hanfu,Stone raised a question:If someone is not ethnically(种族)Chinese,would it be a little offensive(冒犯的) to Chinese people seeing her wear this symbolic Chinese-style costume
Elsbeth van Paridon of the Beijing Review expressed her thoughts on this question.According to her,Chinese people are tolerant and open to seeing foreigners wearing hanfu.They see it as a celebration of Chinese culture.As long as you don’t claim(声称) Chinese culture as yours,you may wear it as frequently as you want.
“We have a very nice example of what happened this summer.So basically Dior,they came out with a new skirt.And then the skirt went viral(走红)on Chinese social media with some Internet users saying ‘Hey,hold your horses!This is not a Dior skirt.It’s called a horse-face skirt’,which dates back to the Song Dynasty(960—1279),”said van Paridon.
“You have to understand that emotional bond is key to the whole hanfu love,”said Urbonya.“Although she does not have a Chinese face,every time she wore hanfu she would be praised by Chinese locals.”
Hanfu has also become an art form,so a lot of people mix and match it with modern accessories(配饰).“The future of hanfu is looking for combination,”said van Paridon.

“This material is called xiangyunsha,”said Song Fei,while she introduced a traditional cheongsam(旗袍)to customers in a flagship shop.“Dyed with pure plant extracts(提取物)and unpolluted river mud,the time-honored silk cloth is named ‘soft gold’ in the textile(纺织的)industry.”
To everyone’s surprise,the knowledgeable Song,who has unbelievable insights into the cheongsam,a body-hugging one-piece Chinese dress for women,has practiced law for 10 years in Chengdu City.In 2017,she traveled to Suzhou to learn design and handicraft skills of cheongsams and traditional costumes,becoming a cheongsam designer.
At first,Song’s family and friends were not optimistic about her choice to switch from a distinguished career to an artistic field.Knowing little about clothing,Song met with a huge challenge.“The pain was unthinkable,but since I had chosen that profession,I had to stick to it.I want a career that I truly enjoy,”said Song.
Song returned to Chengdu with new skills and creative passion in 2019 and founded her design brand.“To be honest,compared with my previous job,this one is harder and leaves me with much greater financial pressure.But my sense of satisfaction is beyond comparison when my works are recognized and appreciated,”said Song.
“Traditional cheongsams are one-piece tailored dresses that require making with natural materials by hand.However,modern cheongsams are often made with artificial materials and produced by machine,”Song said.“In the face of rapid social and economic changes,traditional cheongsams are receiving less attention due to the popularity of mass-produced cheongsams.”
To save the beauty of traditional culture,Song wants to blend people’s daily lives with time-honored handicrafts,believing that traditional culture should not be the zone of museums.She aims to pass on traditional Chinese culture,which is a meaningful type of work with social responsibilities.
5.Where did Song probably work in the past
A.In a design room for costumes.
B.At an office of legal affairs.
C.In a museum of traditional culture.
D.At a flagship shop of cheongsams.
6.What made Song change her job

B.Persuasion from family and friends.
C.Unthinkable pain from the former job.
D.Love for traditional costumes.
7.What is paragraph 5 mainly about
A.The future development of cheongsams.
B.The main producing process of cheongsams.
C.The difference between traditional and modern cheongsams.
D.The original materials of traditional and modern cheongsams.

A new “museum of mathematics” will open in Paris as part of a drive to inspire French schoolchildren,who rank among the worst in the developed world.
The Maison Poincaré,named after Henri Poincaré,the late 19th century polymath,will celebrate mathematicians who put France at the forefront of the subject from the Middle Ages to the 21st century.
The museum,set to open this year,is attempting to spark a renaissance in the face of an educational failure that is viewed as a national emergency.
French pupils ranked bottom in the subject in the EU,while only those from Chile fared worse than the French among the 38 countries of the OECD,according to a Trends in International Mathematics and Science study.
Their poor grasp of the subject was further highlighted by the fact that half of French 12-year-olds thought 0.4 was the same as a quarter,Charles Torossian,an inspector-general of the national education system,said.
In addition,the children of Ukrainian refugees were,despite the language barrier,at least a year ahead of their French classmates in calculating ability.
The museum was the innovation of Cédric Villani,former director of the Poincaré maths institute and former MP for Macron’s Renaissance party.
Sylvie Benzoni,his successor as head of the institute,said the museum aimed to show that maths was open to everyone and no longer the property of “a mainly male scholar”.
Last summer President Macron recovered maths as an option in the general examination.Two years after Jean-Michel Blanquer,his education minister,had removed it.He fired Blanquer and last month made weekly maths classes necessary for all grades from September.
9.Why will the new museum open in Paris
A.To exhibit the artistic achievements of renaissance in Europe.
B.To correct the educational failure which is regarded as a national emergency.
C.To encourage the children in France to learn mathematics better.
D.To remind the French schoolchildren that they rank among the worst in the developed world.
10.What does the underlined word “those” in the fourth paragraph refer to
A.Subjects. B.Pupils.
C.Countries. D.Museums.
11.What is the direct reason of Jean-Michel Blanquer’s unemployment
A.He made mathematics the property of “a mainly male scholar”.
B.He cut maths down from the general examination.
C.He taught the French 12-year-olds that 0.4 was the same as a quarter.
D.He didn’t think weekly maths classes necessary for all grades.
12.What is a suitable title for the text
A.France Will Not Bear Her Poor Maths Any More
B.Children Around The World Do A Bad Job In Maths
C.French Schoolchildren Rank The Worst In The Developed World
D.A New “Museum of Mathematics” Will Open In Paris

Most people assume that the human brain is set on “automatic”—that means it learns all by itself. 1 We need to train ourselves to actively take part in the learning process.These kinds of learning behaviours are called “active learning”.
Listen to the outer voice.There are two kinds of voices:the inner voice and the outer voice.Your inner voice expresses your personal opinions,while the outer voice tells you about opinions from what you hear. 2 If you keep paying too much attention to it,you risk missing important information.Instead,active learners are open-minded and focus on what the speaker is saying,not on what their brain is saying.
Asking questions is the easiest way to promote active learning.When you get information from someone,ask questions about the topic.The answers will lead you to further learning,and the act of working out questions will help you achieve a higher level of understanding. 3
Get to the truth. 4 They attempt to find the truth at the heart of each idea.Even when an idea sounds entirely unlikely,there may be an aspect of it that is based on truth.So if someone says dinosaurs still exist today,think about why they believe this.
5 Many people miss out on learning opportunities because they let their feelings get in the way.They ignore what is said because of who the speaker is.This goes the other way as well—do not just assume that some people are always right because of who they are or just because they are your friends.
A.Focus on the message.
B.This isn’t always true.
C.This is human nature,after all.
D.In short,do not stop being curious.
E.Active learners do not accept everything they learn.
F.If you find your inner voice difficult to control,argue with it.
G.Your inner voice can be useful,but it can also get in the way of learning.
