“Your mind is a garden; your thoughts are the seeds. The harvest can either be flowers or weeds,” William Wordsworth wrote. In the above quote, William suggests that the process of gardening mirrors human life. Depending on what we “plant” in our lives, we bloom (生长茂盛) or don’t. Before you start to work in your garden, it’s necessary to have a vision for it. Thinking of what you want to grow in your garden and how to lay it out is a good first step in making your vision a fruitful reality. In life, you should consider what you want to create and what you want to achieve, because your mind-garden is like the white paper and the possibilities are endless.
Regardless of what you choose to plant, poor soil isn’t suitable for growth. This is why gardeners take the time and energy to upgrade the soil before planting. So, creating the right soil is important to the realization of your goals and dreams. Fortunately, there are countless ways to make your personal bedrock better. Getting an education is one of the most effective ways, which can help you enrich your life’s soil.
You don’t have to be an enthusiastic gardener to understand the meaning of “You harvest what you sow.” When a gardener wants tomatoes, they just need to plant tomato seeds. It’s a very clear act that produces an expected result. Each of us has the power to decide which “life seeds“ to plant. For example, if you plant ill seeds, it’s likely that you’ll experience pain in return. Contrarily, if you plant seeds of kindness and understanding, your life will bloom with happiness and love.
A gardener’s truly hard work begins after the seeds are in the ground because a garden requires a lot of care and attention. Regular watering and weeding are required for a healthy garden. So, to ensure your dreams take root, you should be devoted, aware, and present. After countless hours and energy spent, the crops have grown well and are finally ready to be harvested.

Every time your fingers touch your cell phone, they leave behind traces of chemicals. And each chemical offers clues to you and your activities. By analyzing them. scientists might be able to piece together a story about your recent life, a new study finds.
A molecule is a group of atoms. It represents the smallest amount of some chemical. Your skin is covered in molecules picked up by everything you’ve touched. With each new thing your skin contacts, you leave behind some small share of what it’d touched earlier.
Researchers at the University of California. San Diego (UCSD)recently analyzed such chemical leftovers on the phones of 39 volunteers. The study was led by biochemist Amina Bouslimani. To explore those remains, the UCSD team wiped the surface of each volunteer’s phone with a cotton swab(药棉签). The scientists also swabbed each person’s right hand.
Then the researchers compared the chemicals found on each cell phone. The scientists discovered as many of the molecules as they could. They then compared these to a database of chemicals. Pieter Dorrestein. a UCSD pharmaceutical chemist, had helped set up that database a few years earlier, which contains various substances, including spices, caffeine and medicines.
Traces of anywhere from hundreds to thousands of different molecules turned up on each phone. The molecules reflected what had been in the body, and what each person had handled before touching the phone. From all these molecules, Bouslimani says. “We could tell if a person is likely female, uses high-end cosmetics, dyes her hair, drinks coffee, prefers beer over wine or likes spicy food.”
Police already use molecular analyses to look for traces of explosives or illegal drugs. To date, Dorrestein says. he’s never heard of police using phone remains to narrow down behavioral clues to search for a suspect. But detectives might one day use such data to track down someone who left a phone behind at a crime scene.
5. What can we conclude about the user by analyzing the leftovers on the phone
A. Personality. B. Intelligence.
C. Appearance. D. Lifestyle.
6. What was the first thing needed to be done for the study
A. Comparing different chemicals.
B. Hiring volunteers with cell phones.
C. Building a database containing chemicals.
D. Collecting the chemicals from phones.
7. What’s the author’s attitude towards the application of the research finding
A. Uninterested. B. Disappointed.
C. Doubtful. D. Positive.
8. What should be the best title for the text
A. Fingers Leave Clues about You on Your Phone
B. Your Phone May Be Home to Various Chemicals
C. Molecules Are Used to Search for Illegal Drugs
D. Cell Phones Will be Used in More Fields

【附:解析】
一、阅读理解
【A篇】
【语篇导读】:本文的语篇类型是议论文,主题语境为人与社会。作者以种植为例,形象地讲出培养人的几个措施:做出好的规划,准备肥沃的土壤,选择正确的种子,精心培育,最后才有好收获。
1. B细节理解题。根据第一段中“Before you start to work in your garden, …want to achieve (在你开始在你的花园工作之前,有必要对它有一个愿景。想想你想在你的花园里种什么,以及如何布置它是使你的愿景成为富有成效的现实的良好的第一步。在生活中,你应该考虑你想要创造什么,你想要实现什么)”可知,作者认为在翻地整理园子之前,有个好的规划很重要。
2. A推理判断题。根据第二段中“This is why gardeners … your life’s soil. (这就是为什么园丁在种植前要花时间和精力来升级土壤。因此,创造合适的土壤对实现你的目标和梦想很重要。幸运的是,有无数的方法可以让你的个人基础变得更好。接受教育是最有效的方式之一,它可以帮助你丰富你的生活的土壤)”可知,作者把提高土壤条件比喻为接受教育。
3. A推理判断题。根据第三段中“It’s a very clear …and love. (这是一种非常明显的行为,能够产生预期的结果。我们每个人都有能力决定种下哪种“生命种子”。例如,如果你播下了不良的种子,你很可能会经历痛苦作为回报。相反,如果你播下善良和理解的种子,你的生活就会充满幸福和爱)”可知,作者在这一段告诉读者我们的生活质量取决于我们的积极付出。
4. C主旨大意题。通读全文,根据第一段中““Your mind is a garden; …,we bloom(生长茂盛)or don’t. ”(“你的思想是花园,你的思想是种子。收获的可能是鲜花也可能是杂草。”威廉·华兹华斯写道。在上面的引文中,威廉认为园艺的过程反映了人类的生活。取决于我们在生活中“种植”什么,我们是否开花。)通过引用威廉·华兹华斯的话,把我们的思想即梦想比作花园的种子,而把收获的内容即我们的目标比作果实。把园艺的过程类比于人类的生活。形象地讲明了我们目标的实现与否取决于我们在生活中“种植”什么。同时结合下文内容,讲出培养人的几个措施:做出好的规划,准备肥沃的土壤,选择正确的种子,精心培育,最后才有好收获。所以文章的标题可以为“如何实现你的梦想和目标”。
【B篇】
【语篇导读】:本文的语篇类型是说明文,主题语境为人与社会。本文是一篇说明文。主要讲述了通过研究手机上留下微量的化学物质,我们可以得出用户的生活方式,手指在手机上留下关于你的线索。
5. D推理判断题。根据文章第一段“Every time your fingers touch …, a new study finds.”(每次你的手指触摸手机,都会留下微量的化学物质。每种化学物质都为你和你的活动提供线索。一项新的研究发现,通过分析它们,科学家们可能能够拼凑出一个关于你最近生活的故事。)可推知,通过研究手机上的残留物,我们可以得出用户的生活方式。
6. C推理判断题。根据文章第四段“The scientists discovered as many … caffeine and medicines.”(科学家们发现了尽可能多的分子。然后,他们将这些数据与化学物质数据库进行了比较。加州大学圣地亚哥分校的药物化学家Pieter Dorrestein在几年前帮助建立了这个数据库,其中包含各种物质,包括香料、咖啡因和药物。)可推知,研究人员要做的第一件事是建立包含化学物质的数据库。
7. D推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“Police already use molecular analyses… at a crime scene.”(警方已经使用分子分析来寻找爆炸物或非法毒品的痕迹。Dorrestein说,到目前为止,他从未听说过警察利用手机残留物来缩小搜索嫌疑人的行为线索。但侦探可能有一天会使用这些数据来追踪在犯罪现场留下手机的人。)可推知,作者对于研究发现的应用持积极的态度。
8. A主旨大意题。根据文章大意以及第一段“Every time your fingers touch …, a new study finds.”(每次你的手指触摸手机,都会留下微量的化学物质。每种化学物质都为你和你的活动提供线索。一项新的研究发现,通过分析它们,科学家们可能能够拼凑出一个关于你最近生活的故事。)可知,文章主要讲的是通过研究手机上的残留物,我们可以得到用户的一些信息。故文章最好的标题是“手指在手机上留下关于你的线索”。

10. G由该段的小标题“Realize your styles of thinking (认识你的思维风格)”可知,本段主要介绍思维风格,G选项“You now need to have some understanding of your styles of thinking. (现在你需要对自己的思维风格有一些了解)”呼应小标题,也在强调思维风格,空后“Do you tend to focus on only some details instead of the whole picture Or do you exaggerate (夸大) things so that relatively small events seem very bad (你是不是倾向于只关注一些细节而不是整个画面?或者你夸大了事情让相对较小的事件看起来很糟糕?)”两个问题是对思维风格的具体展开。
11. E由其它段落结构可知,该空位于小标题的位置。空后“Another step you can take to reduce your worries is to consider what aspects (方面) of a situation you can control.
