A. biology textbook. B. botanical magazine C. an academic paper. D. a commercial poster B Turning soil. pulling weeds, and harvesting cabbage sound like tough work for middle and high school kids, And at first it is, says Abby Jaramillo, who with another teacher started Urban Sprouts a school garden program at four low- income schools. The program aims to help students develop science skils, environmental awareness, and healthy lifestyles. Jaramillo's students live in neighborhoods where fresh food and green space are not easy to find and fast food restaurants outnumber grocery stores." The kids literally come to school with bags of snacks and large bottles of soft drinks," she says." They come to us thinking vegetables are awful dirt is awful, insects are awful." Though some are initially scared of the insects and turned off by the dirt. most are eager to try something new. Urban Sprouts'classes, at two middle schools and two high schools, include hands- on experiments such as soil testing, flower- and- seed dissection, tastings of fresh or dried produce and work in the garden. Several times a year, students cook the vegetables they grow, and they occasionally make salads for their entire schools. Program evaluations show that kids eat more vegetables as a resuit of the classes." We have students who say they went home and talked to their parents and now they're eating differently.' Jaramillo says. She adds that the program's benefits go beyond nutrition. Some students get so interested in gardening that they bring home seeds to start their own vegetable gardens. Besides, working in the garden scems to have a calming effect on Jaramile's special education students, many of whom have emotional control issues," They get outside," she says," and they feel successful." 24. Which of the following best describes the impact of the program? A. She used to be a health worker. B. She grew up in a low-income family. C. She owns a fast food restaurant D. She is an initiator of Urban Sprouts. 25. What was a problem facing Jaramillo at the begining? A. The kid's parents distrusted her. B. Students had little time for her classes. C. Some kids disliked garden work D. There was no space for school gardens ,3. 26. Which of the follwing best describes the impact of the program? A. Far-rcaching B. Predictable C. Short-lived D. Unidentifiable 27. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. Rescuing School Gardens B. Experiencing Country Life C. Growing Vegetable Lovers D. Changing Local Landscape Bonobos often formfriendlyrelationships with other bonbos in sparate social groupsth first ,的,,, form cooeatv is tw ft lyhm i mt erlie than we thought, he says. Many animals cooperate.but they seem to do so only with those within their social circle.or in-group Hostile(敌对的) interactions between groups are common among animals, including chimpanzees, so scientists have often assumed that hostility towards other social groups in humans is natural, says Samuni,also at Harvard. However, humans also often coopcrate with people in different social cireles, fo example,by trading or teaching. Bonobos are one of our closest living relatives,They are less studied than chimpanzees, but are known to be more peaceful, says Surbeck.To learn more about interactions between groups, Surbeck and Samuni observed 31 adult bonobos from two social groups in Congo over a two-year period. The pair documented 95 encounters between the groups, which represented about 20%of their total observation time.Unlike chimpanzees observed in previous studies, they showed cooperation with out-group members. In fact, 10% of all mutual grooming(梳毛)and 6% of allfood sharing occurred among members of different social groups. While bonobos that groomed others usually got an immediate benefit, food sharing rarely resulted in a gift in return. This suggests that their actions were "not just motivated by selfish interests or immediate rewards", Surbeck and Samuni report. Otten, a researcher from the Netherlands, finds the study'exciting". especially as it "challenges the idea of human exceptionalism" with regard to out-group cooperation. Otten says the bonobos that were most cooperative within their groups were the same ones that cooperated more with out-group members.This agrees with findings from humans."Scholars used to believe that in-group love' goes together with out-group"hate', but recent research suggests that often in-group cooperators are also out-group cooperators."he says. 28. What is the focus of the study on bonobos? A.Their social behavior. B.Their survival skils. C.Their evolutionary process. D.Their intelligence level. 29. What can be learned about the bonobos? A.They are humans' closest relatives B.They can be taught to cooperate. C.They interact friendly beyond groups. D.They share food for immediate rewards. 30. How was the study conducted? A. By comparing different primates. B.By observing bonobos' interactions. C.By listing group members' motivations. D.By analyzing statisties of previous studies 31. How does Otten find the study? A.Forward-looking. B.Groundbreaking. C.Controversial. D.One-sided. -4. checking,k themial ."istythe tim cecmychool Thestudy ioedrly 2o cheagd3to8 from Chinee schols. Each child wa presente withfve difeenlyid s merom painted Rusn ols.Thechilelym tha the smales doll ws the liest and the lrgest the heviest. When asked to identify the heaviest object most children chose the largest one. An adult then either agred with the children's choice or made a claim that the smallest doll was the heaviest. The rescarchers oberved whether the children would change their minds or test the adult's claim by comparing the weights of the dolls. Initially, children seemed to trust the adult's word, with only a smnall percentage insisting on their original belief. However, when given the opportunity to explore the doll, elementary school children who had received the surprising claim systematicallytested it by comparing the smallest and largest doll. This exploration allwed them to generate evidence that could contradict the adult's claim. These findings suggest that while children are willing to trust an adult's surprising claims, their acceptance is temporary. By elementary school, they systematically test such claims hy seeking new evidence, which they then use to update their beliefs. The study's implications extend beyond childhood. Most adults accept complex concepts, such as the existence of electrons, based on the testimony (证E词) of others rather than personal experience. So while children may learn about the magic of Santa Claus from adults, adults might similarly have something to learn from elementary school children: most of us would do well to adopt an empirical stance more often than we currently do. 32. What is Paragraph 3 mainly about? 一A.The methodology of the study. B. The eonclusion of the study. C. The significance of the study. D. The theoretical basis of the study. 33.

What lesson eould adults leam from children? A. Rejecting complex concepts. B. Never trusting anyone. C. Learning from their own experience. D. Counting on others' testimony. 35.
