My first visit to Angkor Wat（吴哥窟） was in 1980. The country had been at war for many years and the temple was deserted and falling to pieces. Plants were growing out of the roofs, and trees were growing in the yards.
Today, the temple is the scene of a busy repair program. A team of 15 Indian experts are organizing a workforce of 400 Cambodians, most of them women, who are cleaning, repairing and rebuilding parts of this temple.
As I walked through the yards, I noticed the Cambodian women devote hours to cleaning carefully a tiny area of stone. Boards are laid down to protect the precious painted stones while the repair work is going on. There are very few machines and little heavy equipment. Workers carry building materials in buckets at the end of long poles. Piles of stones lie in a corner of the yard, waiting to be replaced.
The work of cleaning the stones is watched over by three Indian chemists. It is a very slow task. First they clean the stones with brushes using buckets of a weak chemical. Then gap s between the stones are filled in. Finally another material is painted onto the stones which will protect them from water forever.
Work starts every day at 7 am and goes on until late afternoon six days a week, with a break at midday.
Evening is the best time to visit the temple, after the tour groups have left. As the sun sinks lower, shadows spread across the yard. After sunset, the sky turns pink. The grey stone towers take on a golden color before turning pink. Nowhere else in the world can there be such a quiet, beautiful place.
28. According to the author, which of the following plays the LEAST important role in the repair work
A. The women workers. B. The Indian workers. C. Machines. D. Skilled workers.
29. The underlined sentence “the temple was deserted” probably means that _________.
A. there was no one in the temple and it was in a poor state
B. the temple was built on a desert and nobody noticed it
C. the temple was very old with a long history
D. the temple was repaired by the Cambodians, most of whom were women
30. To clean the stone, how many steps should be followed
A. Two. B. Three. C. Four. D. Five.
31. Which work needs a lot of time to do
A. To get rid of certain types of plants. B. To carry the building materials.
C. To replace the stones. D. To clean the stones.
D
The Internet plays a big part in human life. We use it for work and entertainment. We can find new recipes on the Internet or advice on staying healthy. We can even use it to learn a new language and connect with family and friends.
As far as the Internet being a part of our lives —well, that train has left the station. This expression means there is no going back to an Internet-free life. But can using the Internet too much be bad for our health It might be, say researchers.
A new study finds that heavy Internet use may be connected to high blood pressure in an unlikely group—teenagers. The study results show that teens who spend at least 14 hours a week online were more likely to have high blood pressure. High blood pressure can cause heart and kidney（肾） disease. It is also closely linked to some forms of dementia（痴呆）, a brain disease. Dementia is marked by memory disorders, personality changes, and a reduced ability to reason.
The Henry Ford Hospital in Detroit, Michigan did the study. 335 young people from 14to 17 years old participated in it. One hundred and thirty-four of the teens were described as “heavy Internet users.” Researchers found that out of these 134 teens, 26 had high blood pressure.
The lead researcher of the study is Andrea Cassidy-Bushrow. In a statement she said, “Using the Internet is part of our daily life but it shouldn't consume us.” For the purpose of the study, she explains, teens considered heavy Internet users were online on “average 25hours a week.” Ms. Cassidy-Bushrow adds that it is important for teens to take “regular breaks from their computers or smartphones” and to do some “kind of physical activity.”
32. Which of the following statements is closest in the meaning to the underlined sentence in Paragraph 2
A. The train has stopped at the wrong station. B. There is something wrong with the train.
C. Life without the Internet is nowhere to be found. D. The train has changed its course.
33. If a person suffers from Dementia, he ________.
A. will remember everything clearly B. will change his character
C. will develop a brain cancer D. can do analysis accurately
34. What is the percentage of young “heavy Internet users” with high blood pressure
A. 40% B. 19% C. 25% D. 7%
35. Which of the following is the best title of the passage
A. The Internet Does Harm to the Study. B. Too Much Internet May Be Bad for Teenagers.
C. We Should Stop Using the Internet. D. High Blood Pressure Is around the Comer.

根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。（E涂AB,F 涂AC,G 涂AD）
As a high school student, you're likely used to learning through reading textbooks. 36 This lies at the heart of “experiential appreciation,” a philosophy that encourages you to engage directly with the world around you. It's about learning from real-life experiences, and discovering a more profound and engaging way to learn.
To practice experiential appreciation, you can start by getting involved in hands-on activities related to your subjects. They will provide a firsthand understanding of the concepts you're studying, making learning active and meaningful. So, try joining a sports team, picking up a paintbrush, or taking part in a local charity event. 37
As you dive deeper, immerse （沉浸） yourself fully in the surroundings and activities. When you're in nature, don't just look around. 38 Touching the leaves, feeling the wind and listening to the birds can enrich your learning and make each moment more memorable.
39 After trying something new, ask yourself what you learned and how it made you feel. Write in a journal or discuss it with friends. This self-discovery turns experiences into life lessons and offers a deeper understanding of the world.
Experiential appreciation transforms learning from a task to be completed into a journey to be treasured. 40 So, explore the world around you, let every experience shape you, and discover the endless possibilities that await. This is the core of true learning, where every moment is a step towards a richer, more enlightened life.
A. It extends learning beyond textbooks.
B. These activities bring learning to life.
C. Mind the impact of your actions on the environment.
D. Instead, activate your senses for a stronger tie with it.
E. Take your experiences further by reflecting on them.
F. Textbooks offer a systematic introduction to essential concepts and principles.
G. Now consider expanding your learning from just reading to actively participating.

Jenny was the only child in her home. She had a quarrel with her mother that afternoon and she ran out of the house angrily. She couldn't help weeping sorrowfully when she thought of the scolding（责备） from her mother. Having wandered aimlessly in the street for hours, she felt a little hungry and wished for something to eat, but it was not possible for her, since she had nothing with her. She stood beside a stand for a while, watching the middle-aged seller busy doing his business. However, with no money in hand, she sighed and had to leave.
The seller behind the stand noticed the young girl and asked, “Hey, girl, you want to have the noodles ”
“Oh, yes. but I don't have money on me. . . ”she replied.
“That's nothing. I'll treat you today,” said the man. “Come in.”
The seller brought her a bowl of noodles, whose smell was so attractive. As she was eating, Jenny cried silently.
“What is it ” asked the man kindly.
“Nothing, actually I was just touched by your kindness!” said Jenny as she wiped her tears.
“Even a stranger on the street will give me a bowl of noodles, while my mother drove me out of the house. She showed no care for me. She is so merciless compared to a stranger! !”

Jenny sat there, speechless and numb with shock. She remembered mother's familiar face and weathered hands. “Why did I not think of that A bowl of noodles from a stranger made me feel indebted, but I have never thanked my mum for what she has done for me. ”
