Are children smarter than adults The answer is “yes” when they learn new things. A new study shows that
kids pick up new knowledge and skills faster than adults.
The study was carried out by famous scientists around the world. In the study, some kids and adults learned the same lessons of new information and skills. The children were 8 to 11 years old. And the adults were 18 to 35 years old. The scientists looked at their GABA (Y-氨基丁酸) levels before, during and after these lessons. GABA is a chemical (化学物质) that our brains produce. It helps us remember newly learned information.
According to the study, the GABA levels in the children’s brains increased quickly during the lessons. This increase lasted for several minutes after the lessons were over. In the adults, however, there was no change in their GABA levels during or after the lessons.
The scientists tested their learning. The results found that the children did learn better. They learned more in the same amount of time than the adults.
This study encourages people to give children more chances to learn new skills. It could also be used to help adults learn faster. “We might develop a new technology, for example, to increase the amount of GABA in adults’ brain,” said one of the scientists.

Scientists say they have found plastic particles snow in the Arctic (北极地区). The snow isn’t only made of water
German scientists have recently found microplastics (微塑料) in Arctic snow. Microplastics are pieces of plastic that are smaller than 5 millimeters (毫米) in length. They’re found not only in our air, but in our water. They end up in our wastewater when we use washing machines to wash clothes with plastic fibers (塑料纤维). The scientists found 1,800 pieces of microplastics per liter of Arctic snow.
How do microplastics travel so far According to scientists, they fall off plastic objects and are moved by the wind, just like dust. They mix with ice in the air and fall to the ground as snow.
Finding these plastics in Arctic snow means that we may breathe them in our air. There are even more of these plastics in the snow around cities.
Are they bad for us Scientists cannot answer this question for now, according to the World Health Organization. We all know that our bodies can’t take in big pieces of microplastic. But if the plastics are small enough, they can find ways into our bodies and stay there for a long time. This can be bad for our health.
32．What do we know about microplastics
A．They’re a new kind of plastic.
B．They’re light and can travel far.
C．Scientists only find them in snow.
D．They’re impossible to see.

A．The new finding about microplastics isn’t good.
B．People don’t need to worry about microplastics.
C．There are many ways to get rid of microplastics.

【答案】32．B 33．B 34．A
【导语】本文主要介绍了科学家在北极地区发现的微塑料，并进一步讨论了微塑料可能对人造成的危害。
32．细节理解题。根据“Microplastics are pieces of plastic that are smaller than 5 millimeters (毫米) in length. They’re found not only in our air, but in our water.”和“How do microplastics travel so far ”可知，微塑料是小于5毫米的塑料片，可存在于空气中，还可以传播到远处。故选B。
33．段落大意题。根据首句“Are they bad for us ”可知，最后一段主要讨论的是微塑料是否对我们有害。故选B。
34．推理判断题。根据最后一句“This can be bad for our health.”可知，微塑料对我们的健康有害，作者认为这一新发现不是个好消息。故选A。

Pinku the squirrel (松鼠) asked for a race with her friend Tutu the bird. The one who lost the game must provide five nuts (坚果) to the winner.

In some parts of the world, children don’t have enough food to eat or enough money to buy clothes or shoes. Every year at Sunshine Middle School, we do something to raise money for these children. This year we will have a Market Day.
The Market Day will fall on July 8. We’re going to make the student center at our school look just like a big shopping center! People can come at any time from 9:00 a. m. to 5:00 p. m. and buy everything from clothes to books, cakes and flowers.

Philip White will e-mail all the teachers and ask them to come to our event. Alice Brown will put a message online telling the public the event is open to everyone.

Do you know the world’s largest train station—Grand Central Terminal (GCT)
GCT is in the center of Manhattan in New York. 750, 000 people pass in and out of it every day. And there are about a thousand visitors going to the information desk to ask for information an hour. “It’s the town square for eight million people in the city,” says GCT manager Dan Brucker. “If people can’t find their family or friends, they’ll meet at the information desk.”
GCT is wonderful in design. You could spend years there before you find all its secrets: its tennis courts, its ground﹣floor apartment...

“Above the ground, we painted the celling (天花板) to make it look like the night sky, with stars shining down,” says Brucker. Years ago, the beautiful ceiling became black. People thought smoke from trains was the cause, but they finally found it was because people smoked too much. Later, workers cleaned it.
The government planned to pull down GCT in the 1960s, but lots of people didn’t agree because it was an important part in their life. In the end, the government decided to keep it. Later, GCT became a place of interest.

Every year, a large number of birds hit the glass. Birds fly towards the glass as it reflects (反射) the sky and
nearby trees during the day.
These accidents (事故) can be avoided if we use proper ways. A German bird research group learned a skill from spiders. When insects hit spider webs (网), spiders often catch them, while birds do not hit spider web s and can always avoid them in time. After the research, it was discovered that the silk given by spiders can reflect UV rays (紫外线), which birds can see.
Scientists think that if glass windows are covered with UV coatings, birds think they are “huge spider webs hanging in the sky”, and they will cleverly avoid them. The research shows that 66% of birds consider the special glass as a wall and don’t hit it. Scientists say, “Although this number may not be as high as our expected 100% or 95%, it can still save a lot of birds.”
In fact, when we deal with accidents of birds by using ways from spider webs, we are trying to use nature to protect animals. Nature is so clever and it seems to have the ability to solve everything.
59．Why do birds hit the glass during the day
A．Because the glass reflects the sky and trees.
B．Because there are bright lights during the day.
C．Because there are more and more high buildings.
D．Because birds cannot see the light the glass reflects.
60．According to scientists, what can be done to solve the problem
A．Make the glass look like a big tree. B．Cover the glass with UV coatings.
C．Hang a huge spider web in the sky. D．Cut down the number of high buildings.
61．Which picture could best match the research results (□Good results Bad results)
A． B． C． D．
【答案】59．A 60．B 61．B
【导语】本文主要讲述了一个德国鸟类研究小组研究了蜘蛛捕虫时，发现虫子能撞到网上但是鸟儿却不能，从而将这一技能运用到建筑物的玻璃上，很好的保护了鸟类。
59．细节理解题。根据“Birds fly towards the glass as it reflects (反射) the sky and nearby trees during the day.”可知，鸟儿飞向玻璃，因为玻璃在白天反射天空和附近的树木，故选A。
60．细节理解题。根据“Scientists think that if glass windows are covered with UV coatings, birds think they are
‘huge spider webs hanging in the sky’, and they will cleverly avoid them.”可知，科学家们认为，如果玻璃窗上覆盖着紫外线涂层，鸟类会认为它们是“悬挂在天空中的巨大蜘蛛网”，它们会聪明地避开它们。故选B。
61．推理判断题。根据“The research shows that 66% of birds consider the special glass as a wall and don’t hit it.”可知，研究表明，66%的鸟把这种特殊的玻璃当作墙，不会撞到它，所以图中好的结果应占到66%，B项符合，故选B。

Have you ever thought about planting trees on the cliffs (悬崖) Do you think this can be done Wang Yonghong, the head of a local tree-planting team, had successfully planted trees in many places with his teammates, but he wasn’t sure whether his team could make it on the cliffs.
Now, 11 years have passed. Wang and his team have successfully planted more than 10,000 mu of trees on those cliffs, making the impossible possible.
It was hard to achieve success. There was too little soil (土壤) on the cliffs to support the lives of the trees. Wang found that each hole needed at least 1 m of soil to fill, so the team needed to transport more than 20 rounds of soil for just one hole.
That day, Wang planted six trees on the cliff. However, one could usually plant 60 trees a day on the plains (平原). Wang said that their planting on the cliffs took a lot of time with a little reward (回报). “But it has a great meaning and we will keep doing it,” he said.
Thanks to the efforts of people like Wang, China now has the world’s largest land area of planted forests.
62．How does the writer begin the text

One day in 2011, the weather was fine. Jerome Michaud-Lariviere, a French engineer, was sitting in a square. Then he found the leaves on the trees moving. Suddenly an idea came to his mind: “That’s energy. Why not make use of it ”
After three years of hard work, Jerome and his team finally developed a nearly eight-meter-tall Wind Tree. It is like a real tree. Its plastic leaves can turn and produce electricity even when there is a little wind. Each year, one Wind Tree can produce nearly 18,000 kWh, which is enough to support a family of four. This could cut the family’s yearly carbon emissions (碳排放) by over 12 tons. Even better, the trees make little noise while they are working. This isn’t detrimental to humans or animals, and it’s good for the environment.
However, the Wind Tree is not perfect. It is expensive to build and maintain (维护) . It also requires some wind to produce electricity, so it may not be suitable for areas with low wind speeds.
Although there are some shortcomings (不足) , the Wind Tree is still a great invention that provides clean energy and helps protect the environment. Jerome said, “We hope that the Wind Tree can be connected with other ways such as geothermal power (地热发电) and energy-saving buildings. In the future, we will develop a perfect Wind Tree.”
66．What encouraged Jerome to have an idea about energy
A．The green trees. B．The blowing wind.
C．The moving leaves. D．The beautiful square.

B．The high price of the Wind Tree.
C．The introduction of the Wind Tree.
D．The disadvantages of the Wind Tree.

68．段落大意题。根据“However, the Wind Tree is not perfect.”可知，本段主要介绍“风树”的不足之处，故选D。

A few weeks ago, I was invited for the interview at Cambridge University in person. I have always hoped for it ever since I was twelve years old. I know if I want to get into my dream university, I have to improve myself. So I kept reading and caught every chance to share my ideas bravely by speaking in public.
I felt very excited that I could meet and speak to some of the leading teachers in the field, but as the interview drew closer, I was unsurprisingly getting more and more nervous. The day before my interview, I stayed in Cambridge for a night as it was an early morning interview. It was a relaxing experience to live and study at the university. I really calmed down a little just by enjoying the learning environment there.
▲ It felt more like a discussion about some questions. These interviewers want to see how you think instead of looking for correct answers. Walking out of the interview, although I was not completely relaxed, I told myself, “Whatever the result may be, you should be proud of what you have achieved so far.”
During this whole time, one of the things I realized was that we should try our best to do what we can. Control what you can and let the rest be.

A．The meeting with leading teachers. B．The early morning experience.

Many people believe sex (性别) influences interests and jobs. For example, boys do math better than girls, while girls are better at learning languages. We usually think this is because of the difference in how boys’and girls’ brains work. But is it really true
According to past studies, some parts of our brains can be different in size. Scientists used to think these differences might influence how well men and women think and do things. They found this by scanning (扫描) people’s brains. However, in most of the studies, researchers only scanned a few people. In fact, to make such research believable, you would have to scan the brains of 1,000 people at least.
In 2021, the UK Biobank scanned the brains of 40,000 people in the UK, providing new ideas.“It showed differences between men and women in the size of certain brain parts. However, these differences were very small. We could not get a real result from them.”Camillie Williams from the University of Texas, told New Scientist.
Also, our brains might change in size according to our life experiences. For example, if part of a man’s brain which is for doing math, is larger than that of a woman. It is possibly because he takes jobs that often use math skills. So brain differences between men and women could be a result of different roles in life and society. So, what can we do to make our brains work better
79．In many people’s opinion, what influences interests and jobs
A．Sex. B．Education. C．Health. D．Language.
80．What does the writer think of the past studies
A．The methods in the studies were wrong.
B．The number of scanned brains is not enough.
C．They help men and women know themselves better.
D．The results from the past studies were very believable.
81．What is the main idea of Paragraph 3
A．Differences in the brain greatly influence people’s lives.
B．Some parts of our brains ean be totally different in their sizes.
C．The UK Biobank has done the best study and provided new ideas.
D．Different brain sizes of people aren’t big enough to make a difference.
82．What will the writer talk about next
A．Advice of making brains work better.
B．Different opinions about the study result.
C．Influences of the different life experiences.
D．Future development of the UK Biobank research.

【导语】本文主要介绍了关于大脑性别差异的一些研究及结论。
79．细节理解题。根据“Many people believe sex (性别) influences interests and jobs.”可知，许多人认为性别会影响兴趣和工作。故选A。
80．观点态度题。根据“However, in most of the studies, researchers only scanned a few people. In fact, to make such research believable, you would have to scan the brains of 1,000 people at least.”可知，在大多数研究中，研究人员只扫描了少数人；事实上，要使这样的研究可信，至少需要扫描1000人的大脑。由此推知作者认为研究扫描的大脑数量是不够的。故选B。
81．段落大意题。根据“However, these differences were very small. We could not get a real result from them.”可知，男性和女性在大脑某些部位的大小上存在差异，但这些差异非常小，所以无法从这些细小的差异中得到真正的结果；由此推知本段说明了不同人的大脑大小并不大到足以产生差异。故选D。
82．推理判断题。根据“So, what can we do to make our brains work better ”可知，我们能做些什么来让我们的大脑更好地工作呢；由此推知作者接下来会给出一些让大脑更好地工作的建议。故选A。

If parents want their children to have healthy eating habits, they can ask their children to learn to cook. When children learn to cook, they can know more about healthy food and cooking skills.
A school in Canada finds that more children eat fruit and vegetables after taking cooking classes. The school also finds that joining the cooking clubs can improve children’s lifestyles (生活方式) and make them want healthy food.
In the UK, many schools have cooking classes for students aged between 12 and 16. They take three hours’ classes before practicing cooking. Since 2007, a cooking activity called “Let’s Get Cooking” has helped more than 1.7 million children improve their cooking skills, through more than 5,000 school cooking clubs.
A few days ago, people did a study among 2,500 students of the activity. It showed that 92% of them used their cooking skills at home. Over half of the students said they ate more healthily after they learned to cook.
Let children learn to cook and have some cooking classes. They’ll live a healthier life by cooking!

Are children smarter than adults The answer is “yes” when they learn new things. A new study shows that kids pick up new knowledge and skills faster than adults.
The study was carried out by famous scientists around the world. In the study, some kids and adults learned the same lessons of new information and skills. The children were 8 to 11 years old. And the adults were 18 to 35 years old. The scientists looked at their GABA (Y-氨基丁酸) levels before, during and after these lessons. GABA is a chemical (化学物质) that our brains produce. It helps us remember newly learned information.
According to the study, the GABA levels in the children’s brains increased quickly during the lessons. This increase lasted for several minutes after the lessons were over. In the adults, however, there was no change in their GABA levels during or after the lessons.
The scientists tested their learning. The results found that the children did learn better. They learned more in the same amount of time than the adults.
This study encourages people to give children more chances to learn new skills. It could also be used to help adults learn faster. “We might develop a new technology, for example, to increase the amount of GABA in adults’ brain,” said one of the scientists.
28．What is the article mainly used to introduce
A．A science lesson. B．A science research.
C．A special chemical. D．A group of scientists.
29．Why do children learn new knowledge faster than adults according to the article

Scientists say they have found plastic particles snow in the Arctic (北极地区). The snow isn’t only made of water
German scientists have recently found microplastics (微塑料) in Arctic snow. Microplastics are pieces of plastic that are smaller than 5 millimeters (毫米) in length. They’re found not only in our air, but in our water. They end up in our wastewater when we use washing machines to wash clothes with plastic fibers (塑料纤维). The scientists found 1,800 pieces of microplastics per liter of Arctic snow.
How do microplastics travel so far According to scientists, they fall off plastic objects and are moved by the wind, just like dust. They mix with ice in the air and fall to the ground as snow.
Finding these plastics in Arctic snow means that we may breathe them in our air. There are even more of these plastics in the snow around cities.
Are they bad for us Scientists cannot answer this question for now, according to the World Health Organization. We all know that our bodies can’t take in big pieces of microplastic. But if the plastics are small enough, they can find ways into our bodies and stay there for a long time. This can be bad for our health.
32．What do we know about microplastics
A．They’re a new kind of plastic.
B．They’re light and can travel far.
C．Scientists only find them in snow.
D．They’re impossible to see.
33．What’s the last paragraph mainly talking about
A．New findings about microplastics.
B．Whether microplastics are dangerous or not.
C．How microplastics end up inside our bodies.
D．How to get rid of microplastics.

A．The new finding about microplastics isn’t good.
B．People don’t need to worry about microplastics.
C．There are many ways to get rid of microplastics.

Pinku the squirrel (松鼠) asked for a race with her friend Tutu the bird. The one who lost the game must provide five nuts (坚果) to the winner. Other animals advised Pinku not to do that because one of Tutu’s wings was wrong, making it difficult for him to move. However, Pinku remained silent and continued a race with Tutu. Surprisingly, Pinku lost. She had to give Tutu five nuts. Other animals laughed at her, but she kept silent and continued to race against Tutu.

“Everyone knows that Tutu needs help because of his wing. He can’t even get enough food. When he wanted to play, only Pinku was by his side.

In some parts of the world, children don’t have enough food to eat or enough money to buy clothes or shoes. Every year at Sunshine Middle School, we do something to raise money for these children. This year we will have a Market Day.
The Market Day will fall on July 8. We’re going to make the student center at our school look just like a big shopping center! People can come at any time from 9:00 a. m. to 5:00 p. m. and buy everything from clothes to books, cakes and flowers.
Luckily for us, many volunteers will help prepare for the big event. Last year, Ms. Grant and Ms. Ali made some wonderful cakes for our charity event. They will do it again this year. Bull Thomas will visit Bookworm Bookshop and Mel’s Music Shop and ask them to give us things that we can sell at the event. Philip White will e-mail all the teachers and ask them to come to our event. Alice Brown will put a message online telling the public the event is open to everyone.
However, there’s more to do, and we need your help. We want you to give us things that we can sell—books, old clothes, anything that we can sell to raise money for poor children. We also need some student volunteers to sell
the things we get on Market Day.

Do you know the world’s largest train station—Grand Central Terminal (GCT)
GCT is in the center of Manhattan in New York. 750, 000 people pass in and out of it every day. And there are about a thousand visitors going to the information desk to ask for information an hour. “It’s the town square for eight million people in the city,” says GCT manager Dan Brucker. “If people can’t find their family or friends, they’ll meet at the information desk.”
GCT is wonderful in design. You could spend years there before you find all its secrets: its tennis courts, its ground﹣floor apartment... On the ninth floor under the ground, there’s a secret room—M﹣42. “During World War Ⅱ, if you had come here, you would been killed. Only a few people could go into the room,” Brucker says.
“Above the ground, we painted the celling (天花板) to make it look like the night sky, with stars shining down,” says Brucker. Years ago, the beautiful ceiling became black. People thought smoke from trains was the cause, but they finally found it was because people smoked too much. Later, workers cleaned it.
The government planned to pull down GCT in the 1960s, but lots of people didn’t agree because it was an
important part in their life. In the end, the government decided to keep it. Later, GCT became a place of interest.

Every year, a large number of birds hit the glass. Birds fly towards the glass as it reflects (反射) the sky and nearby trees during the day.
These accidents (事故) can be avoided if we use proper ways. A German bird research group learned a skill from spiders. When insects hit spider webs (网), spiders often catch them, while birds do not hit spider web s and can always avoid them in time. After the research, it was discovered that the silk given by spiders can reflect UV
rays (紫外线), which birds can see.
Scientists think that if glass windows are covered with UV coatings, birds think they are “huge spider webs hanging in the sky”, and they will cleverly avoid them. The research shows that 66% of birds consider the special glass as a wall and don’t hit it. Scientists say, “Although this number may not be as high as our expected 100% or 95%, it can still save a lot of birds.”
In fact, when we deal with accidents of birds by using ways from spider webs, we are trying to use nature to protect animals. Nature is so clever and it seems to have the ability to solve everything.
59．Why do birds hit the glass during the day
A．Because the glass reflects the sky and trees.
B．Because there are bright lights during the day.
C．Because there are more and more high buildings.
D．Because birds cannot see the light the glass reflects.
60．According to scientists, what can be done to solve the problem
A．Make the glass look like a big tree. B．Cover the glass with UV coatings.
C．Hang a huge spider web in the sky. D．Cut down the number of high buildings.
61．Which picture could best match the research results (□Good results Bad results)

Have you ever thought about planting trees on the cliffs (悬崖) Do you think this can be done Wang Yonghong, the head of a local tree-planting team, had successfully planted trees in many places with his teammates, but he wasn’t sure whether his team could make it on the cliffs.
Now, 11 years have passed. Wang and his team have successfully planted more than 10,000 mu of trees on those cliffs, making the impossible possible.
It was hard to achieve success. There was too little soil (土壤) on the cliffs to support the lives of the trees. Wang found that each hole needed at least 1 m of soil to fill, so the team needed to transport more than 20 rounds of soil for just one hole.
That day, Wang planted six trees on the cliff. However, one could usually plant 60 trees a day on the plains (平原). Wang said that their planting on the cliffs took a lot of time with a little reward (回报). “But it has a great
meaning and we will keep doing it,” he said.
Thanks to the efforts of people like Wang, China now has the world’s largest land area of planted forests.

One day in 2011, the weather was fine. Jerome Michaud-Lariviere, a French engineer, was sitting in a square. Then he found the leaves on the trees moving. Suddenly an idea came to his mind: “That’s energy. Why not make use of it ”
After three years of hard work, Jerome and his team finally developed a nearly eight-meter-tall Wind Tree. It is like a real tree. Its plastic leaves can turn and produce electricity even when there is a little wind. Each year, one Wind Tree can produce nearly 18,000 kWh, which is enough to support a family of four. This could cut the family’s yearly carbon emissions (碳排放) by over 12 tons. Even better, the trees make little noise while they are working. This isn’t detrimental to humans or animals, and it’s good for the environment.
However, the Wind Tree is not perfect. It is expensive to build and maintain (维护) . It also requires some wind to produce electricity, so it may not be suitable for areas with low wind speeds.
Although there are some shortcomings (不足) , the Wind Tree is still a great invention that provides clean energy and helps protect the environment. Jerome said, “We hope that the Wind Tree can be connected with other ways such as geothermal power (地热发电) and energy-saving buildings. In the future, we will develop a perfect Wind Tree.”
66．What encouraged Jerome to have an idea about energy
A．The green trees. B．The blowing wind.

A few weeks ago, I was invited for the interview at Cambridge University in person. I have always hoped for it ever since I was twelve years old. I know if I want to get into my dream university, I have to improve myself. So I kept reading and caught every chance to share my ideas bravely by speaking in public.
I felt very excited that I could meet and speak to some of the leading teachers in the field, but as the interview drew closer, I was unsurprisingly getting more and more nervous. The day before my interview, I stayed in Cambridge for a night as it was an early morning interview. It was a relaxing experience to live and study at the university. I really calmed down a little just by enjoying the learning environment there.
▲ It felt more like a discussion about some questions. These interviewers want to see how you think instead of looking for correct answers. Walking out of the interview, although I was not completely relaxed, I told myself, “Whatever the result may be, you should be proud of what you have achieved so far.”
During this whole time, one of the things I realized was that we should try our best to do what we can. Control what you can and let the rest be.
75．How did the writer improve himself to get into Cambridge

Many people believe sex (性别) influences interests and jobs. For example, boys do math better than girls, while girls are better at learning languages. We usually think this is because of the difference in how boys’and girls’ brains work. But is it really true
According to past studies, some parts of our brains can be different in size. Scientists used to think these differences might influence how well men and women think and do things. They found this by scanning (扫描) people’s brains. However, in most of the studies, researchers only scanned a few people. In fact, to make such research believable, you would have to scan the brains of 1,000 people at least.
In 2021, the UK Biobank scanned the brains of 40,000 people in the UK, providing new ideas.“It showed differences between men and women in the size of certain brain parts. However, these differences were very small. We could not get a real result from them.”Camillie Williams from the University of Texas, told New Scientist.
Also, our brains might change in size according to our life experiences. For example, if part of a man’s brain which is for doing math, is larger than that of a woman. It is possibly because he takes jobs that often use math skills. So brain differences between men and women could be a result of different roles in life and society. So, what can we do to make our brains work better
79．In many people’s opinion, what influences interests and jobs
A．Sex. B．Education. C．Health. D．Language.
80．What does the writer think of the past studies

C．They help men and women know themselves better.
D．The results from the past studies were very believable.
81．What is the main idea of Paragraph 3
A．Differences in the brain greatly influence people’s lives.
B．Some parts of our brains ean be totally different in their sizes.
C．The UK Biobank has done the best study and provided new ideas.
D．Different brain sizes of people aren’t big enough to make a difference.
82．What will the writer talk about next
A．Advice of making brains work better.
B．Different opinions about the study result.
C．Influences of the different life experiences.
D．Future development of the UK Biobank research.

Do you see there are many electric cars running on the road There might be more in the future. Because it is a way to help slow the climate change. In the United States, it is said that by 2030, half of all new cars sold should be electric ones. Now this country is one of the biggest makers of greenhouse gases. More than a quarter of those in the country come from cars.
But over half of Americans don’t want that. They say the electric cars are expensive and it’s not easy to charge them when the cars run out of power as charging stations are not enough.
So should all cars be electric Our newspaper held a discussion too. 55% readers choose electric cars as the oil is not reusable. Electric cars can use renewable energy including solar and wind power which can help reduce the air pollution. But 45% readers don’t like electric cars. It’s hard to control the car when the weather is poor. The batteries (电池) are made of things found at the bottom of the sea. That’s harmful to sea animals and the environment too.
Environment problems are becoming more and more serious. Maybe they won’t be solved simply by
producing more electric cars. Every one of us has to do more to make our home better.

China has fewer very overweight people compared to many other countries worldwide. The reason behind this is the traditional Chinese diet which is known for its health benefits. Let’s explore what makes the Chinese diet so good for health.
A traditional Chinese diet is heavy on vegetables. The Chinese enjoy filling their plates with fresh and healthy vegetables, such as snow peas, broccoli, and green beans. These vegetables are good for the body and can even help in fighting cancer. Moreover, vegetables are low in calories (卡路里). That means they are one of the best choices for managing the calories you take in at a meal.
Unlike some other countries, Chinese meals do not usually end with a high-calorie dessert. Sometimes, at the end of a Chinese meal, a sweet soup, like red bean or tofu soup, may be served. However, these soups are usually much lower in calories compared to desserts like cakes or ice cream, even though they have some sugar.
The choice of drinks also plays a role in weight control. In many other countries, sugary cola drinks and energy drinks are popular. However, in China, people have been drinking tea for more than 3,000 years, and they usually enjoy it all day long. Drinking tea can help burn extra (多余的) calories and can also provide protection against certain diseases.

On a middle school playground, a group of boys and girls are dancing to pop music with smiles on their faces. The idea came from their PE teacher, Miss Wang, who is trying to encourage her students to exercise more. And she is not alone. Now, more and more PE teachers across the country are coming up with new and fun sports activities.
In 2021, the Chinese government came up with a plan called “double reduction” to reduce the pressure on students. The plan reduces the amounts of homework, exams, and after-school classes. It also focuses on sports and fitness to solve the health problems of students.

Some animals can easily find their way home after a long journey. How do they make it Scientific research shows that they are born with certain unusual abilities for direction.
A certain kind of ants, for example, can count their steps to avoid getting lost. They can go as far as 110 metres and bring food home. These ants live in the open desert, so they have nothing to guide them along the way. It’s like someone walking six kilometres through a dark forest.
Some fish have an unbelievable (不可思议的) sense of smell. They can smell even a single drop of their home water in a large sea area. Some sea birds have a similar ability. They are able to make a smell map of their flying area.
Some animals can sense the earth’s magnetic field (磁场), while humans can’t. This magnetic field guides a certain kind of fish when they swim a long way to a place and then back. How can this kind of fish do that It is still a mystery. Scientists have no good answers yet.
However, animals with such unusual abilities still have difficulty dealing with environmental changes caused by human activities. For example, many birds depend on stars for direction, but they get lost easily at night when city lights are kept on all night. To solve this problem, we can simply (仅仅) turn off some lights at night. Clearly, one small act of humans may mean a lot to animals.
116．Where is this passage most probably from
A．A storybook. B．An art magazine. C．A guidebook. D．A science magazine.
117．How can a certain kind of ants find their way
