After skating, skiing or shoveling snow, nothing warms you up better than a cup of hot cocoa. Though today it will be topped with marshmallows（棉花软糖） or stuff like that, put may not know that chocolate was first consumed in liquid form by the Olmec people of northwestern Central America around 1500 B. C.
However, the Olmec people didn't serve their cocoa hot. And since sugar had not yet arrived from Europe back then, the drink was often flavoured with peppers and spices. After the Spanish arrived in the Americas in the 1500s, liquid chocolate made its way across the pond, where wealthy Europeans added sugar and drank it warm. According to Chocolate: History, Culture and Heritage, hot chocolate became "the drink of the aristocracy（贵族）"， as sugar was still a luxury.
Soon enough, though, hot chocolate caught on with the masses. Chocolate houses stared springing up around 17th-century Europe. In these lively places, hot chocolate was poured from pots into elegant cups. But by the end of the 18th century, chocolate houses had mostly died off, because the input of chocolate was much dearer than that of coffee or tea.
Marshmallows first came into the picture in 1917, when the company Angelus Marshmallows published a recipe for hot coco a topped with their product. Instant coco s is another American invention, created in the late 1950s when dairy company owner Chados Sanna faced an oversupply of powered coffee creamer. His solution was mixing the creaner. sugar and cocoa powder together thus creating a formula（配方） favored by many.
Taking a tour of international cups of cocoa, you can try cioccolata calda, a thick, pudding-like version in Italy. In Colombia and Ecuador, chocolate is served with a teaspoon of soft farmer cheese, and Filipino hot chocolate, sikwate, is served with mango chunks.
However you choose to jazz up your own cup, the simple pleasure of drinking a warm, chocolaty drink is one that hasn't gotten old for thousands of years.

Honeybees command a lot of attention in insect conservation circles, as they are important for pollinating our food supply. But the findings from researchers emphasize the importance of prioritizing other pollinators or insects like wild bees, moths and butterflies in conservation efforts, too.
For the study, ecologists Joshua Kohn and Dillon Travis from the University of California, painstakingly tracked the pollination of flowers from two plant species in San Diego—white sage and Phacelia distans. Often Travis sat for hours waiting for a single pollinator, honeybees or other insects, to land on a flower. Each time he put a mesh（网状的）bag on the flower to prevent any new visitor, then back to collect seeds from different visitors. Back in the greenhouse, the team grew the seeds, analyzing characteristics that reflected their quality, such as how many seeds grew and survived and how many leaves or flower seedlings （幼苗） grew from them.
They found flowers pollinated by honeybees make fewer and lower-quality seeds than flowers visited by other pollinators. The white sage and Phacelia distans plants produced roughly half the amount of seeds from flowers pollinated by honeybees compared with other pollinators. And Phacelia distans seeds from honeybee-pollinated plants grew into seedlings with fewer flowers.
The researchers also found that honeybees visited about twice as many flowers on one plant before moving to the next than the average of other pollinators, causing honeybees to transfer more pollen in flowers of the same plant, thus resulting in fewer and lower-quality and more inbred（近亲繁殖的） seeds. Other pollinators more often flew between different plants, probably transferring more diverse pollen.
Travis says, "Honeybees' pollination habit can impact ecosystems and agriculture in the long term. One potential consequence could be that native plant populations decline as next generations become more inbred, reducing biodiversity."
"It is time to actually shift our dependence for pollination from largely honeybees to other native species as well," says Jaya Sravanthi Mokkapati, an entomologist at Pen n State University.
32. What does paragraph 2 focus on about the research
A. Its procedures. B. Its members. C. Its impact. D. Its significance.
33. Why do plants pollinated by honeybees produce fewer and lower-quality seeds
A. Honeybees cause big damage to plants' seeds.
B. Honeybees are less selective while pollinating.
C. Honeybees' pollination efficiency is unexpectedly low.
D. Honeybees prefer to pollinate flowers of the same plant.
34. What did Travis think of their findings
A. Misleading. B. Worrying. C. Creative. D. Helpful.
35. What is Jaya Sravanthi Mokkapati's point of view
A. Native plant populations are declining at a high speed.
B. Honeybees' pollination impacts plant seeds temporarily.
C. More attention should be paid to protecting other pollinators.
D. Honeybees' pollination depends more on other native species.

This will set you free to stop striving and start thriving.

We had no money and no idea what we were going to do. I read the papers on the table, which said we had lost the house because we hadn't been paying the rent. I was surprised that all this was going on. My dad seemed to be doing nothing about it and my mom never said anything about it.

M: Hilda, I know you're busy, and I really hate to bother you, but...
W: What is it, Bill
M: Well, I was hoping you could give me a ride to the airport.
W: Can't you take the subway
M: My flight is early in the morning on Sunday. I don't think the subway is open then.
W: Well, I've got tons of homework to do before next Monday. You know we have exams on Wednesday afternoon. What about calling a taxi It shouldn't be too expensive on a day with so little traffic.
M: You're right. But it's not money I'm worried about. It's the time of day.
W: You think there won't be any cars on the road in the early morning
M: Exactly. I'll make it up to you. I could explain how you're helping me. So our teacher might excuse you.
W: That would be great, but I doubt if I can get out of a final exam. My neighbor sometimes drives people to the downtown area. He charges them $6.

(Text 10)
M: I live in the center of the city where it rarely rains, so cars parked in open parking lots easily collect pollutants and dust. Together with my friends, I decided it should be a kind gesture to surprise the owners with a car wash. Every once in a while, someone would come by and ask us seemingly stupid men, "Who told you to wash the cars " or, even better, "Who paid you to wash their cars " We explained we just wanted to do something kind. But our response was often met with an even more confused look. As the afternoon went on, some other friends that came by understood our goal of the voluntary event and started helping out with some of the duties. I wasn't cleaning cars for money. I was cleaning cars simply because I wanted to offer the car owners kindness. I now realize, first hand, that there is a special energy created when you choose to think bigger than yourself and act in service of others and maybe, like me, you'll find it's actually the greatest gift you'll ever get.

参考范文：
Dear Wesley,
How are you doing I am writing to ask you to do me a favor. As you know, my English listening skills are not as strong as I'd like them to be. Despite my efforts to improve, I still find it challenging to understand spoken English, especially when it comes to accents or fast-paced conversations.
Considering your proficiency in English and your familiarity with online resources, I was wondering if you could recommend some websites or online platforms that are specifically designed to enhance English listening skills.
I'd greatly appreciate your assistance and look forward to your reply.
Yours sincerely,
Li Hua
第二节：
参考范文：
That whole week she tried her best to find a place for rent. Besides the fact that we had no place to move to, we also had nothing to eat since the food my dad had bought the month before had run out. Even though my mom didn't show it, I felt her pain and how much it hurt her to be unable to provide a good shelter and food for us. After that whole week of seeing her struggle, I came home and she had a smile on her face and was cooking, which was really strange because she doesn't like to cook. I assumed there was good news and asked her, "So what's new "
"We are starting to move today," she said with a smile on her face. "There's a place near your school and it allowed all of us to live even though the place is pretty small." I could tell she was relieved and happy. At that moment, I admired her so much. My mom is the greatest mom ever. I would not know what to do without her. Times like these are moments that make me admire my mom's strength. Some people might give up in bad situations but my mom looks at bad moments in life as a test, or a chance to make her stronger. When things seem to be the worst, she makes everything seem so easy to fix.

After skating, skiing or shoveling snow, nothing warms you up better than a cup of hot cocoa. Though today it will be topped with marshmallows（棉花软糖） or stuff like that, put may not know that chocolate was first consumed in liquid form by the Olmec people of northwestern Central America around 1500 B. C.
However, the Olmec people didn't serve their cocoa hot. And since sugar had not yet arrived from Europe back then, the drink was often flavoured with peppers and spices. After the Spanish arrived in the Americas in the 1500s, liquid chocolate made its way across the pond, where wealthy Europeans added sugar and drank it warm. According to Chocolate: History, Culture and Heritage, hot chocolate became "the drink of the aristocracy（贵族）"， as sugar was still a luxury.
Soon enough, though, hot chocolate caught on with the masses. Chocolate houses stared springing up around 17th-century Europe. In these lively places, hot chocolate was poured from pots into elegant cups. But by the end of the 18th century, chocolate houses had mostly died off, because the input of chocolate was much dearer than that of coffee or tea.
Marshmallows first came into the picture in 1917, when the company Angelus Marshmallows published a recipe for hot coco a topped with their product. Instant coco s is another American invention, created in the late 1950s when dairy company owner Chados Sanna faced an oversupply of powered coffee creamer. His solution was mixing the creaner. sugar and cocoa powder together thus creating a formula（配方） favored by many.
Taking a tour of international cups of cocoa, you can try cioccolata calda, a thick, pudding-like version in Italy. In Colombia and Ecuador, chocolate is served with a teaspoon of soft farmer cheese, and Filipino hot chocolate, sikwate, is served with mango chunks.
However you choose to jazz up your own cup, the simple pleasure of drinking a warm, chocolaty drink is one that hasn't gotten old for thousands of years.

Honeybees command a lot of attention in insect conservation circles, as they are important for pollinating our food supply. But the findings from researchers emphasize the importance of prioritizing other pollinators or insects like wild bees, moths and butterflies in conservation efforts, too.
For the study, ecologists Joshua Kohn and Dillon Travis from the University of California, painstakingly tracked the pollination of flowers from two plant species in San Diego—white sage and Phacelia distans. Often Travis sat for hours waiting for a single pollinator, honeybees or other insects, to land on a flower. Each time he put a mesh（网状的）bag on the flower to prevent any new visitor, then back to collect seeds from different visitors. Back in the greenhouse, the team grew the seeds, analyzing characteristics that reflected their quality, such as how many seeds grew and survived and how many leaves or flower seedlings （幼苗） grew from them.
They found flowers pollinated by honeybees make fewer and lower-quality seeds than flowers visited by other pollinators. The white sage and Phacelia distans plants produced roughly half the amount of seeds from flowers pollinated by honeybees compared with other pollinators. And Phacelia distans seeds from honeybee-pollinated plants grew into seedlings with fewer flowers.
The researchers also found that honeybees visited about twice as many flowers on one plant before moving to the next than the average of other pollinators, causing honeybees to transfer more pollen in flowers of the same plant, thus resulting in fewer and lower-quality and more inbred（近亲繁殖的） seeds. Other pollinators more often flew between different plants, probably transferring more diverse pollen.
Travis says, "Honeybees' pollination habit can impact ecosystems and agriculture in the long term. One potential consequence could be that native plant populations decline as next generations become more inbred, reducing biodiversity."
"It is time to actually shift our dependence for pollination from largely honeybees to other native species as well," says Jaya Sravanthi Mokkapati, an entomologist at Pen n State University.
32. What does paragraph 2 focus on about the research
A. Its procedures. B. Its members. C. Its impact. D. Its significance.
33. Why do plants pollinated by honeybees produce fewer and lower-quality seeds
A. Honeybees cause big damage to plants' seeds.
B. Honeybees are less selective while pollinating.
C. Honeybees' pollination efficiency is unexpectedly low.
D. Honeybees prefer to pollinate flowers of the same plant.
34. What did Travis think of their findings
A. Misleading. B. Worrying. C. Creative. D. Helpful.
35. What is Jaya Sravanthi Mokkapati's point of view
A. Native plant populations are declining at a high speed.
B. Honeybees' pollination impacts plant seeds temporarily.
C. More attention should be paid to protecting other pollinators.
D. Honeybees' pollination depends more on other native species.

Starting the new year on the right foot is all about adopting a healthy mindset. Here's how to have a successful start, according to wellness experts.
Start daydreaming
Focused daydreaming, a state caused by mind wandering while focusing on "mindless" tasks such as walking or housework, allows you to start thinking more creatively. 36 . So making them a part of your daily routine this year guarantees more creativity and innovation in all areas of your life.
Do something different every day
Bring more varieties into your life by trying something different every day. 37 . Eat a different breakfast, sit in another place at the table, or take a different route to work. Read a newspaper that you never read. Variety is the spice（调味品） of life, so add some spice. 38
Focus on what you have and not what you lack
So often in our lives we find ourselves come from a place of shortage. We don't have what we want and things aren't going as well as we'd like. 39 . Whether it's internal confidence or external resources, focus on what you have that you are grateful for. Build a practice of appreciating who you are, what you do and what you have. This will set you free to stop striving and start thriving.
40
New year, new feelings, new goals Yes, and the most important part is that every change, in order to be effective, should come from our gut and our own self-motivated driver.

My mom is the greatest morn ever! As I grew up, I saw her as my hero for all the things she would do for me. I remember she would fix my baby dolls and help me color pretty pictures when I started elementary school. I remember in middle school, I would see her do things that fathers were supposed to do, like fixing the car without caring how greasy her hands would get. Now that I'm in high school, I see how she is strong but sensitive at the same time. She looks at life with a positive attitude no matter what the situation is.
One day I came home from school and saw papers on the kitchen table and my mom sitting with a worried face looking at my dad. My dad wasn't working at the time because he had broken his leg. I had he and my, parents talk about money issues a couple of times before. but I never asked about the situation.
"What's going on " I asked.
"We have to be out of the house in two weeks," my morn said. She had her elbows （肘部） on the table and one hand over her forehead. Then I realized this was a serious problem. That very day, she made phone calls and started to look for a place to rent.
We had no money and no idea what we were going to do. I read the papers on the table, which said we had lost the house because we hadn't been paying the rent. I was surprised that all this was going on. My dad seemed to be doing nothing about it and my mom never said anything about it. It seemed like everything was falling apart, but my mom seemed as if this was making her stronger.

That whole week she tried her best to find a place for rent. "We are starting to move today," she said with a smile on her face.

M: I live in the center of the city where it rarely rains, so cars parked in open parking lots easily collect pollutants and dust. Together with my friends, I decided it should be a kind gesture to surprise the owners with a car wash. Every once in a while, someone would come by and ask us seemingly stupid men, "Who told you to wash the cars " or, even better, "Who paid you to wash their cars " We explained we just wanted to do something kind. But our response was often met with an even more confused look. As the afternoon went on, some other friends that came by understood our goal of the voluntary event and started helping out with some of the duties. I wasn't cleaning cars for money. I was cleaning cars simply because I wanted to offer the car owners kindness. I now realize, first hand, that there is a special energy created when you choose to think bigger than yourself and act in service of others and maybe, like me, you'll find it's actually the greatest gift you'll ever get.

Dear Wesley,
How are you doing I am writing to ask you to do me a favor. As you know, my English listening skills are not as strong as I'd like them to be. Despite my efforts to improve, I still find it challenging to understand spoken English, especially when it comes to accents or fast-paced conversations.
Considering your proficiency in English and your familiarity with online resources, I was wondering if you could recommend some websites or online platforms that are specifically designed to enhance English listening skills.
I'd greatly appreciate your assistance and look forward to your reply.
Yours sincerely,

参考范文：
That whole week she tried her best to find a place for rent. Besides the fact that we had no place to move to, we also had nothing to eat since the food my dad had bought the month before had run out. Even though my mom didn't show it, I felt her pain and how much it hurt her to be unable to provide a good shelter and food for us. After that whole week of seeing her struggle, I came home and she had a smile on her face and was cooking, which was really strange because she doesn't like to cook. I assumed there was good news and asked her, "So what's new "
"We are starting to move today," she said with a smile on her face. "There's a place near your school and it allowed all of us to live even though the place is pretty small." I could tell she was relieved and happy. At that moment, I admired her so much. My mom is the greatest mom ever. I would not know what to do without her. Times like these are moments that make me admire my mom's strength. Some people might give up in bad situations but my mom looks at bad moments in life as a test, or a chance to make her stronger. When things seem to be the worst, she makes everything seem so easy to fix.
