The weakening of the human connection to nature might be good for economic growth but is bad for people. A tipping point was reached in 2020 when human-made materials - such as steel, concrete and plastic - were found to weigh more than all life on Earth. Continuing to grow concrete forests rather than real ones is shortsighted. Simply being in the nearest wood has such health benefits that the Woodland Trust successfully lobbied for it to be prescribed by doctors.
Yet slipping from popular culture is the wonder and beauty of the natural world. For every three nature-related words in hit songs of the 1950s, researchers found, there was only slightly more than one 50 years later. It is not a moment too soon that teenagers will be able to take a natural history test, given that for decades children have been able to name more video game characters than wildlife species.
Part of remedying this social disease would be for parliament to pass a “right to grow” law, allowing anyone to turn underused public spaces into vegetable and fruit gardens. The idea is for people to get back in touch with the soil - while producing food sustainably.
Vegetable planting has a respectable tradition. In April 1649, locals responded to high prices and food shortages by cultivating vegetables on common land in Southern England. The practice of throwing seed bombs to turn vacant plots of land green took off in 1970s New York, and has been revived by green-thumbed social media influencers who defy local US regulations in a war on ugly spots in cities.
Apart from the urgent task of providing more healthy nutrients to those who increasingly can't afford them, publicly accessible fruit and vegetable gardens connect what we eat to where it comes from - the means of production, if you will. They can make unlovely spaces lovely, and marry use and beauty as well as help promote a sense of community. Plants are also, of course, our first defence against species loss and climate change. Such planting is a small step for humanity - in the right direction.
24. What does the author want to emphasise in the first paragraph
A. The year 2020 was a big turning point in human history.
B. Economic growth benefits people little in the long run.
C. It is unwise to weaken the human connection to nature.
D. It is harmful to mankind to use human-made materials.
25. What did researchers find about popular culture
A. It is increasingly detached from the natural world.
B. It is filled with all kinds of video game characters.
C. It is especially appealing to the taste of teenagers.
D. it is still impacted by the hit songs of the 1950s.
26. What does the author propose people do
A. Take measures to ensure sustainable food development.
B. Reconnect with nature through the right to grow.
C. Stand by the parliament in fighting social discases.
D. Cover public spaces with fruit trees and vegetable plants.
27. What can publicly accessible fruit and vegetable gardens do apart from their practical functions
A. Raise people's environmental awareness.
C. Act as the first defence against natural disasters.
B. Add to the great variety of plant species.
D. Enhance people's community spirit.
C
As a university student, I've come to realise just how little I know about money. I've come to the brutal realization that Australia's youth are being done a great disservice by not receiving any consistent financial education.
Diving headfirst into the crash course of starting university, I've quickly tried to get myself up to speed with the financial terms of the modern era to help manage my personal finances.
I've read some financial education books, done some online learning, and have spoken to my nearest and dearest for their pearls of financial wisdom.
There are undoubtedly hundreds of great resources out there for those wishing to improve their financial literacy, but while I was researching, I still kept wishing that I didn't have to play catch-up with the money world. I felt that I was sailing the financial seas with no skills and no life jacket!
However, after talking to my friends who felt the same, I quickly realised that it wasn't my ignorance but the lack of financial education in our schooling system that is leaving high schoolers seriously behind in the modern world of money.
Let's compare a theoretical financial education subject to the standard compulsory English class. On average, English may not be the most popular subject, but it's consistently on the schedule throughout high school, with all students graduating fluent in English.
A financial education subject should do just the same. It shouldn't be just a one-day event but a course integrated throughout the whole of high school that would allow students to gradually expand their financial literacy, and would prevent the need for a 'catch up' phase once we're out on our own after graduation.
In the same way that learning a language or new skills takes time, building financial skills requires practice and years to gradually accumulate bits and pieces of knowledge.
Giving young people the opportunity to become familiar with the world of money would provide them with a great advantage to enter adulthood with confidence and security so that they are able to manage their own money and look after themselves.
28. What has the author come to realise since entering university
A. He needs a crash course on financial terms.
B. He is very much lacking in financial literacy.
C. It requires consistent education to be financially independent.
D. It is unrealistic to give all Australian youth a financial education.
29. How did the author feel in today's money world
A. Badly equipped to survive. B. Ignorant of financial literature.
C. Barely capable of moving ahead. D. Overwhelmed by the resources online.
30. What did the author realise after talking to his friends
A. They were as keen as he was on financial matters.
B. The schooling system was to blame for his trouble.
C. High schoolers knew nothing about the modern financial world.
D. Financial courses were as unpopular as compulsory English classes.
31. What would financial literacy do to young people
A. Allow them to enter adulthood with financial security.
B. Enable them to look after themselves without worrying about money.
C. Render them confident and secure in terms of money management.
D. Help them become familiar with the world of money.
D
Research in human-vehicle interaction has shown even systems designed to automate driving are far from being error-proof. Recent evidence points to drivers' limited understanding of what these systems can and cannot do as a contributing factor to system misuse. A recent study tackles the issue of over-trusting drivers and the resulting system misuse from a legal viewpoint. It looks at what the manufacturers of self-driving cars should legally do to ensure that drivers understand how to use the vehicles appropriately.
One solution suggested in the study involves requiring buyers to sign end-user license agreements (EULAs), similar to the terms and conditions that require agreement when using new software products. But this is far from ideal. The agreement may not provide enough information to the driver, leading to confusion about the nature of the requests for agreement and their implications. Further, most end users don’t read EULAs. A 2017 study shows 91 percent of people agree to them without reading. Among young people, 97 percent agree without reviewing the terms.
The issue is that, unlike using a smartphone app, operating a car has serious safety risks, whether the driver is human or software. And human drivers need to consent to take responsibility for the outcomes of the software and hardware.
“Warning fatigue” and distracted driving are also causes for concern. For example, a driver, annoyed after receiving continuous warnings, could decide to just ignore the message. Or, if the message is presented while the vehicle is in motion, it could represent a distraction. Given these limitations and concerns, even if this mode of obtaining consent is to move forward, it likely won’t fully protect automakers from their legal liability should the system malfunction（发生故障）or an accident occur.
Driver training for self-driving vehicles can help ensure that drivers fully understand system capabilities and limitations. This needs to occur beyond the vehicle purchase. Recent evidence shows even relying on the information provided by the seller is not going to answer many questions. All of this considered, the road forward for self-driving cars is not going to be a smooth ride after all.
32. What do we learn from research in human-vehicle interaction
A. Automatic driving systems are by no means immune to errors.
B. Driverless vehicles are likely to be misused by some people.
C. Self-driving car manufacturers are not aware of the legal matters involved.
D. There is a long way to go before humans can interact with driverless vehicles.
33. What is the problem with requiring buyers to sign end-user license agreements
A. End users, young and old alike, find the terms complex to interpret.
B. Most end users sign them without bothering to read the terms.
C. Many people are often confused by the wording of the terms.
D. Most end users do not understand the terms after reading them through.
34. What would drivers do when they suffer from “warning fatigue”
A. Waste no time keeping the car moving. B. Rest a while to avoid fatigue driving.
C. Take no action despite repeated warnings. D. Take note of the message though fatigued.
35. What should be done to help drivers fully understand system capabilities and limitations
A. Training them to be experts in vehicle automation.
B. Familiarizing them with the systems through training.
C. Broadening their knowledge of accident-prevention mechanisms.
D. Facilitating their access to the information provided by the seller.

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。
Fitness Magazine recently ran an article titled “Five Reasons to Thank Your Workout Partner.” One reason was: “You’ll actually show up if you know someone is waiting for you at the gym,” while another read: “ 36 ” With a workout partner, you will increase your training efforts as there is a subtle (微妙) competition.
So, how do you find a workout partner
First of all, decide what you want from that person. 37 Or do you just want to be physically fit, able to move with strength and flexibility Think about the exercises you would like to do with your workout partner.
You might think about posting what you are looking for on social media, but it probably won’t result in a useful response. 38 If you plan on working out in a gym, that person must belong to the same gym.
My partner posted her request on the notice board of a local park. Her notice included what kind of training she wanted to do, how many days a week and how many hours she wanted to spend on each session, and her age. It also listed her favorite sports and activities, and provided her phone number. 39
You and your partner will probably have different skills. 40 Over time, both of you will benefit — your partner will be able to lift more weights and you will become more physically fit. The core (核心) of your relationship is that you will always be there to help each other.
A. Your first meeting may be a little awkward.
B. A workout partner usually needs to live close by.
C. You'll work harder if you train with someone else.
D. Do you want to be a better athlete in your favorite sport
E. How can you write a good "seeking training partner" notice
F. Just accept your differences and learn to work with each other.
G. Any notice for a training partner should include such information.

阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Sylvia came to her grandmother's farm in Vermont a year ago, from a dirty, crowded manufacturing town. The air in the countryside felt free, soft and sweet. Every day she would spend some time in the woods nearby. Some birds even came close to her, pecking at crumbs from her hands and singing away.
One day in the evening, a tall young man carrying a gun approached the door of their farm house. Putting down the gun, he said, “I've lost my way. Could I have a night's lodging(住宿) here ” Sylvia's grandma somehow agreed.
Then, the young man introduced himself as an ornithologist, who collected birds. “Do you put them in a cage ” Sylvia asked. “No,” he answered slowly, “I shoot them and get them stuffed and preserved. I have over 100 kinds of bird specimens(标本) in my study.” Sylvia felt her heart trembling as she imagined so many birds being shot.
“Sylvia knows a lot about birds, too,” her grandmother said proudly. “Maybe she can be my last hope!” the young man became thrilled. “I have followed a rare white heron(鹭) in this direction for two days. Have you seen it, too ” he asked Sylvia. “The heron has soft white feathers and long slender legs. It probably has its nest at a tree- top,” he added. Sylvia’ s heart gave a wild beat. She had seen the strange bird on the other side of the woods! The young man then stared at Sylvia with the hope of the heron being one of Sylvia’s acquaintances, “I would give $100 to whoever showed me where the white heron is!” But Sylvia was silent. He then sighed, “They have never been seen here. Perhaps it was only migrating, or had been chased out of its own region by some prey.”
That night, long after the moon came out and the young man had fallen asleep, Sylvia was broad awake. Her mind was alternately visited by the bird specimens and the wished-for treasures 100 dollars could buy.
注意：

【参考范文】 Dear Paul,
I’m so delighted to hear that you are interested in our Handicraft Display Activity. And I can’t wait to share the details you wish to learn.
To start with, the young experts we’ve kindly invited are from different fields and will be showcasing a variety of innovative techniques including pottery, woodworking and paper cuttings. To continue, this activity will be held in the Student Activity Center from 7:00pm to 9:00pm on December 28. And I’d love to receive your assistance if you are available. Since we have not enough fellows to extend the publicity, could you help us spread the word about the event by sharing it on social media, talking to classmates, and putting up posters around campus
Thank you again for your enthusiasm about it. I am looking forward to your favorable reply.
Yours sincerely, Li Ming

【参考范文】
When dawn was breaking, Sylvia quietly left her house and hurried through the woods. She finally reached an old pine tree, alongside which was flourishing undergrowth, complex enough to bewilder any invaders. With her bare feet and tiny fingers grabbing the rough trunk, Sylvia climbed to the top to locate precisely where the white
heron had hidden its nest. Suddenly, her eyes caught a flash of white. On a stretching branch just below her, a white heron was smoothing its feathers at leisure and cried to its mate dwelling on their nest nearby. As the golden sunrays struck the green woods, the heron fluttered its wings, hovering. Sylvia couldn’t help sighing at such harmony, knowing it was her calling to sustain...
About two hours later, Sylvia appeared back in the farm house, determined. Greeting her was the young man, who assumed she came to seal the 100-dollar deal. “You spotted it ” his intent eyes looked deeply into Sylvia’s gray ones. 100 dollars was genuinely a temptation, a big fortune she needed. Somehow the heron dumbed her. She had felt awed by how it lived the life she had dreamt of and how they witnessed the sunrise together from the top of the world. She could not unveil the heron’s secret, brutally depriving its natural freedom. The young man went away later that day, disappointed. Everything returned to normal, Sylvia wandering through the woods and flocks of birds singing freely.

The weakening of the human connection to nature might be good for economic growth but is bad for people. A tipping point was reached in 2020 when human-made materials - such as steel, concrete and plastic - were found to weigh more than all life on Earth. Continuing to grow concrete forests rather than real ones is shortsighted. Simply being in the nearest wood has such health benefits that the Woodland Trust successfully lobbied for it to be prescribed by doctors.
Yet slipping from popular culture is the wonder and beauty of the natural world. For every three nature-related words in hit songs of the 1950s, researchers found, there was only slightly more than one 50 years later. It is not a moment too soon that teenagers will be able to take a natural history test, given that for decades children have been able to name more video game characters than wildlife species.
Part of remedying this social disease would be for parliament to pass a “right to grow” law, allowing anyone to turn underused public spaces into vegetable and fruit gardens. The idea is for people to get back in touch with the soil - while producing food sustainably.
Vegetable planting has a respectable tradition. In April 1649, locals responded to high prices and food shortages by cultivating vegetables on common land in Southern England. The practice of throwing seed bombs to turn vacant plots of land green took off in 1970s New York, and has been revived by green-thumbed social media influencers who defy local US regulations in a war on ugly spots in cities.
Apart from the urgent task of providing more healthy nutrients to those who increasingly can't afford them, publicly accessible fruit and vegetable gardens connect what we eat to where it comes from - the means of production, if you will. They can make unlovely spaces lovely, and marry use and beauty as well as help promote a sense of community. Plants are also, of course, our first defence against species loss and climate change. Such planting is a small step for humanity - in the right direction.
24. What does the author want to emphasise in the first paragraph
A. The year 2020 was a big turning point in human history.
B. Economic growth benefits people little in the long run.
C. It is unwise to weaken the human connection to nature.
D. It is harmful to mankind to use human-made materials.
25. What did researchers find about popular culture
A. It is increasingly detached from the natural world.
B. It is filled with all kinds of video game characters.
C. It is especially appealing to the taste of teenagers.
D. it is still impacted by the hit songs of the 1950s.
26. What does the author propose people do
A. Take measures to ensure sustainable food development.
B. Reconnect with nature through the right to grow.
C. Stand by the parliament in fighting social discases.
D. Cover public spaces with fruit trees and vegetable plants.
27. What can publicly accessible fruit and vegetable gardens do apart from their practical functions
A. Raise people's environmental awareness.
C. Act as the first defence against natural disasters.
B. Add to the great variety of plant species.
D. Enhance people's community spirit.

As a university student, I've come to realise just how little I know about money. I've come to the brutal realization that Australia's youth are being done a great disservice by not receiving any consistent financial education.
Diving headfirst into the crash course of starting university, I've quickly tried to get myself up to speed with the financial terms of the modern era to help manage my personal finances.
I've read some financial education books, done some online learning, and have spoken to my nearest and dearest for their pearls of financial wisdom.
There are undoubtedly hundreds of great resources out there for those wishing to improve their financial literacy, but while I was researching, I still kept wishing that I didn't have to play catch-up with the money world. I felt that I was sailing the financial seas with no skills and no life jacket!
However, after talking to my friends who felt the same, I quickly realised that it wasn't my ignorance but the lack of financial education in our schooling system that is leaving high schoolers seriously behind in the modern world of money.
Let's compare a theoretical financial education subject to the standard compulsory English class. On average, English may not be the most popular subject, but it's consistently on the schedule throughout high school, with all students graduating fluent in English.
A financial education subject should do just the same. It shouldn't be just a one-day event but a course integrated throughout the whole of high school that would allow students to gradually expand their financial literacy, and would prevent the need for a 'catch up' phase once we're out on our own after graduation.
In the same way that learning a language or new skills takes time, building financial skills requires practice and years to gradually accumulate bits and pieces of knowledge.
Giving young people the opportunity to become familiar with the world of money would provide them with a great advantage to enter adulthood with confidence and security so that they are able to manage their own money and look after themselves.
28. What has the author come to realise since entering university
A. He needs a crash course on financial terms.
B. He is very much lacking in financial literacy.
C. It requires consistent education to be financially independent.
D. It is unrealistic to give all Australian youth a financial education.
29. How did the author feel in today's money world
A. Badly equipped to survive. B. Ignorant of financial literature.
C. Barely capable of moving ahead. D. Overwhelmed by the resources online.
30. What did the author realise after talking to his friends
A. They were as keen as he was on financial matters.
B. The schooling system was to blame for his trouble.
C. High schoolers knew nothing about the modern financial world.
D. Financial courses were as unpopular as compulsory English classes.
31. What would financial literacy do to young people
A. Allow them to enter adulthood with financial security.
B. Enable them to look after themselves without worrying about money.
C. Render them confident and secure in terms of money management.
D. Help them become familiar with the world of money.
D
Research in human-vehicle interaction has shown even systems designed to automate driving are far from being error-proof. Recent evidence points to drivers' limited understanding of what these systems can and cannot do as a contributing factor to system misuse. A recent study tackles the issue of over-trusting drivers and the resulting system misuse from a legal viewpoint. It looks at what the manufacturers of self-driving cars should legally do to ensure that drivers understand how to use the vehicles appropriately.
One solution suggested in the study involves requiring buyers to sign end-user license agreements (EULAs), similar to the terms and conditions that require agreement when using new software products. But this is far from ideal. The agreement may not provide enough information to the driver, leading to confusion about the nature of the requests for agreement and their implications. Further, most end users don’t read EULAs. A 2017 study shows 91 percent of people agree to them without reading. Among young people, 97 percent agree without reviewing the terms.
The issue is that, unlike using a smartphone app, operating a car has serious safety risks, whether the driver is human or software. And human drivers need to consent to take responsibility for the outcomes of the software and hardware.
“Warning fatigue” and distracted driving are also causes for concern. For example, a driver, annoyed after receiving continuous warnings, could decide to just ignore the message. Or, if the message is presented while the vehicle is in motion, it could represent a distraction. Given these limitations and concerns, even if this mode of obtaining consent is to move forward, it likely won’t fully protect automakers from their legal liability should the system malfunction（发生故障）or an accident occur.
Driver training for self-driving vehicles can help ensure that drivers fully understand system capabilities and limitations. This needs to occur beyond the vehicle purchase. Recent evidence shows even relying on the information provided by the seller is not going to answer many questions. All of this considered, the road forward for self-driving cars is not going to be a smooth ride after all.
32. What do we learn from research in human-vehicle interaction
A. Automatic driving systems are by no means immune to errors.
B. Driverless vehicles are likely to be misused by some people.
C. Self-driving car manufacturers are not aware of the legal matters involved.
D. There is a long way to go before humans can interact with driverless vehicles.
33. What is the problem with requiring buyers to sign end-user license agreements
A. End users, young and old alike, find the terms complex to interpret.
B. Most end users sign them without bothering to read the terms.
C. Many people are often confused by the wording of the terms.
D. Most end users do not understand the terms after reading them through.
34. What would drivers do when they suffer from “warning fatigue”
A. Waste no time keeping the car moving. B. Rest a while to avoid fatigue driving.
C. Take no action despite repeated warnings. D. Take note of the message though fatigued.
35. What should be done to help drivers fully understand system capabilities and limitations
A. Training them to be experts in vehicle automation.
B. Familiarizing them with the systems through training.
C. Broadening their knowledge of accident-prevention mechanisms.
D. Facilitating their access to the information provided by the seller.

Fitness Magazine recently ran an article titled “Five Reasons to Thank Your Workout Partner.” One reason was: “You’ll actually show up if you know someone is waiting for you at the gym,” while another read: “ 36 ” With a workout partner, you will increase your training efforts as there is a subtle (微妙) competition.
So, how do you find a workout partner
First of all, decide what you want from that person. 37 Or do you just want to be physically fit, able to move with strength and flexibility Think about the exercises you would like to do with your workout partner.
You might think about posting what you are looking for on social media, but it probably won’t result in a useful response. 38 If you plan on working out in a gym, that person must belong to the same gym.
My partner posted her request on the notice board of a local park. Her notice included what kind of training she wanted to do, how many days a week and how many hours she wanted to spend on each session, and her age. It also listed her favorite sports and activities, and provided her phone number. 39
You and your partner will probably have different skills. 40 Over time, both of you will benefit — your partner will be able to lift more weights and you will become more physically fit. The core (核心) of your relationship is that you will always be there to help each other.
A. Your first meeting may be a little awkward.
B. A workout partner usually needs to live close by.
C. You'll work harder if you train with someone else.
D. Do you want to be a better athlete in your favorite sport
E. How can you write a good "seeking training partner" notice
F. Just accept your differences and learn to work with each other.
G. Any notice for a training partner should include such information.

阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Sylvia came to her grandmother's farm in Vermont a year ago, from a dirty, crowded manufacturing town. The air in the countryside felt free, soft and sweet. Every day she would spend some time in the woods nearby. Some birds even came close to her, pecking at crumbs from her hands and singing away.
One day in the evening, a tall young man carrying a gun approached the door of their farm house. Putting down the gun, he said, “I've lost my way. Could I have a night's lodging(住宿) here ” Sylvia's grandma somehow agreed.
Then, the young man introduced himself as an ornithologist, who collected birds. “Do you put them in a cage ” Sylvia asked. “No,” he answered slowly, “I shoot them and get them stuffed and preserved. I have over 100 kinds of bird specimens(标本) in my study.” Sylvia felt her heart trembling as she imagined so many birds being shot.
“Sylvia knows a lot about birds, too,” her grandmother said proudly. “Maybe she can be my last hope!” the young man became thrilled. “I have followed a rare white heron(鹭) in this direction for two days. Have you seen it, too ” he asked Sylvia. “The heron has soft white feathers and long slender legs. It probably has its nest at a tree- top,” he added. Sylvia’ s heart gave a wild beat. She had seen the strange bird on the other side of the woods! The young man then stared at Sylvia with the hope of the heron being one of Sylvia’s acquaintances, “I would give $100 to whoever showed me where the white heron is!” But Sylvia was silent. He then sighed, “They have never been seen here. Perhaps it was only migrating, or had been chased out of its own region by some prey.”
That night, long after the moon came out and the young man had fallen asleep, Sylvia was broad awake. Her mind was alternately visited by the bird specimens and the wished-for treasures 100 dollars could buy.

When dawn was breaking, Sylvia quietly left her house and hurried through the woods. She finally reached an old pine tree, alongside which was flourishing undergrowth, complex enough to bewilder any invaders. With her bare feet and tiny fingers grabbing the rough trunk, Sylvia climbed to the top to locate precisely where the white
heron had hidden its nest. Suddenly, her eyes caught a flash of white. On a stretching branch just below her, a white heron was smoothing its feathers at leisure and cried to its mate dwelling on their nest nearby. As the golden sunrays struck the green woods, the heron fluttered its wings, hovering. Sylvia couldn’t help sighing at such harmony, knowing it was her calling to sustain...
About two hours later, Sylvia appeared back in the farm house, determined. Greeting her was the young man, who assumed she came to seal the 100-dollar deal. “You spotted it ” his intent eyes looked deeply into Sylvia’s gray ones. 100 dollars was genuinely a temptation, a big fortune she needed. Somehow the heron dumbed her. She had felt awed by how it lived the life she had dreamt of and how they witnessed the sunrise together from the top of the world. She could not unveil the heron’s secret, brutally depriving its natural freedom. The young man went away later that day, disappointed. Everything returned to normal, Sylvia wandering through the woods and flocks of birds singing freely.
