B Tim Richter and his wife, Linda, had taught for over 30 years near Buffalo, New York--he in computers, she in special education. “Teaching means everything to us,” Tim would say. In April 1998, he learned he would need a heart operation. It was the kind of news that led to some serious thinking about life’s purpose. Not long after the surgery, Tim saw a brochue describing Imagination Library, a program started by Dolly Parton’s foundation(基金会) that mailed a book every month to children from birth to age five in the singer’s hometown of Sevier, Tennessee. “I thought, maybe Linda and I could do something like this when we retired,” Tim recalls. He placed the brochure on his desk, “as a reminder.” Five years later, now retired and with that brochure still on the desk, Tim clicked on imaginationlibrary.com. The program had been opened up to partners who could take advantage of book and postage discounts. The quality of the books was of great concern to the Richters. Rather than sign up online, they went to Dollywood for a look-see. “We didn’t want to give the children rubbish,” says Linda. The books—reviewed each year by teachers, literacy specialists, and Dollywood board members—included classics such as Ezra Jack Keats’s The Snowy Day and newer books like Anna Dewdney’s Llama Llama series. Satisfied, the couple set up the Richter Family Foundation and got to work. Since 2004, they have shipped more than 12, 200 books to preschoolers in their area. Megan Williams, a mother of four, is more than appreciative. “This program introduces us to books I’ve never heard of. ” The Richters spend about $400 a month sending books to 200 children. “Some people sit there and wait to die,” says Tim. “Others get as busy as they can in the time they have left.” 24.What led Tim to think seriously about the meaning of life? A. His health problem. B. His love for teaching. C. The influence of his wife. D. The news from the web. 25.What did Tim want to do after learning about Imagination Library? A. Give out brochures. B. Do something similar. C.Write books for children. D. Retire from being a teacher. 26. Why did the Richters go to Dollywood? A. To avoid signing up online. B.To meet Dollywood board members. C.To make sure the books were the newest. D. To see if the books were of good quality. 27.What can we learn from Tim’s words in the last paragraph? A. He needs more money to help the children. B. He wonders why some people are so busy. C. He tries to save those who are waitin to die. D. He considers his efforts worthwhile. C Packaging designers often combine a variety of elements—text, illustration, color—in complex designs meant to attract consumers’ attention. In many cases, according to a new series of studies, they’d get better results from a simpler approach. In the first study, the researchers worked with data from the U. S. supermarket chain Kroger. They gathered all product images across four consumable categories—shampoo, deodorant, crackers, and cereal—along with each product’s name, brand, retail (零售) price, and weight. Independent research assistants rated the images on complexity of design. Mapping the ratings against each product’s price per ounce showed that the simpler the package was, the higher the product’s unit price—suggesting that people are willing to pay more when items are presented simply. In the following experiments, the researchers created simple and complex packages for trail mix and showed one or the other to each of 362 university students. The students indicated the highest amount they would pay for the snack, reported whether they thought it contained few or many ingredients and how pure they believed it to be, and rated the package on attractiveness and simplicity. Those who saw the simple design were willing to pay more, even though they were less likely than people who saw the complex design to award high marks on attractiveness. The simple design got higher scores on purity, and participants believed the product contained fewer ingredients. Repeating the experiment with a different item—hand lotion (护手霜)—got similar results. “Simplifying packaging design may be an efficient way to convey product information independent of text,” the researchers write. Additional experiments showed that the boost from a simple design was less pronounced when the product’s ingredients were highlighted on the package; consumers then had no need to guess purity. 28. How did the researchers carry out the first study? A. By talking to the staff from a supermarket. B. By recording opinions from local customers. C. By rating complexity of designs and improving them. D. By analyzing product images and related information. 29. The researchers repeated the experiment with hand lotion to find out ________. A. how to create simple packages. B. how to get high marks on purity. C. whether people preferred simpler designs. D. why complex designs were more attractive. 30．Which of the following may the researchers agree with? A. Categories of products should be highlighted. B. Managers should make package designs simpler. C. Sales of products should rely more on packaging. D. Researchers should focus on less pronounced facts. 31. What is a suitable title for the text? A. Less is more. B. Quality over quantity. C. The simpler, the healthier. D. The more complex, the more expensive. 　　D Consumers may soon find meat on restaurant menus that has never walked the earth— grown from cell to fillet（肉块）. The product, called “cultured” or “cultivated” meat, is reaching more plates. Cultivated chicken has been sold in a Singapore restaurant since 2020, and recently the Department of Agriculture approved the sale of cultured chicken in the United States. More than 150 businesses worldwide are working to put beef, fish, and pork on the market, too. Cultured meat begins as a cell from an egg or a piece of traditionally butchered meat. Fed with certain nutrients for two or three weeks, the meat is processed into forms that consumers are familiar with. “Initial research is in a lab, but the meat is made in a production facility.” says Josh Tetrick, CEO of Good Meat, one of the USDA-approved cultured chicken manufacturers. The company has made public their own nutrient analysis, evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration, which reveals that the nutritional profiles of their products are almost identical to conventional meats . By alleviating the raising and killing of animals, cultured meat companies say their product helps reduce animal cruelty and will be better for the environment. Their process uses far less land because there’s no need to house animals or grow their feed. Cultured beef, especially, could reduce the number of cattle on farms—a significant source of methane emissions. However, some studies contradicted that cultured meat may also require greater energy usage than conventional production. Much of the environmental impact will depend on whether the energy used is renewable and on the efficiency of future production technology. Given a growing consumer consciousness around animal rights and climate change, supporters foresee a future meat market where consumers will choose between different kinds of conventional meat, cultured meat, and plant-based alternatives. Approved sale of cultivated chicken in the U.S is a landmark moment, but not yet a revolution. While cultured meat’s wide-spread consumption and impact on the economy seem a step closer to reality, scientists, philosophers, and the product’s own manufacturers acknowledge years of work lie ahead. 32.What’s the first paragraph mainly about ? A .The official approval of meat marketing. B.The growing popularity of meat products. C.The increasing promotion of cultured meat. D.The widespread consumption of cultured chicken . 33. In what way is cultured meat similar to conventional meat? A . Initial forms . B . Production efficiency . C . Nutritional contents . D . Consumption prospect . 34. Why does the author mention cultured beef in Paragraph 3? A . To explain the process of raising animals. B . To compare cultured meat and conventional meat . C . To emphasize the environmental benefits of cultured meat . D . To highlight the significance of reducing methane emissions . 35. What attitude do scientists hold for the future consumption of cultured meat ? A . Cautious . B . Confident . C . Doubtful . D . Worried . 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Riding a Mobike on the street, you might hear people speaking Chinese aloud. ___36___ After walking into a store, it’s possible that you’ll see Huawei smartphones for sale.
