Have you ever wondered what the food you eat every day can tell you about where you come
from?Have you ever wondered why people from different parts of the world eat different types of
food?Do you ever ask yourself why certain foods or cuisine traditions are so important to your culture?
There is more of a connection between food and culture than you may think.
On an personal level,we grow up eating the food of our cultures.It becomes a part of who each
of us is.Many of us connect food from our childhood with warm feelings and good memories and it
ties us to our families,holding a special and personal value for us.
On a larger scale,traditional cuisine is passed down from one generation to the next.It also
serves as an expression of cultural identity ()Immigrants bring the food of their countries with
them wherever they go and cooking traditional food is a way of preserving their culture when they
move to new places.
In China,harmony is a vital quality in almost every aspect of life.This is reflected in Chinese
cuisine,where almost every flavor (is used in a balanced way creating delicious dishes with
flavors that go well together.The cuisine of the United States also reflects its history.The European
colonization (of the Americas brought European ingredients and cooking styles to the
U.S.
As the world becomes more globalized,it is easier to get cuisines from different cultures.We
should keep our traditions through our culture's food but we should also become more informed about
other cultures by trying their foods.

A.Traditions on culture.
B.Difficulties in cooking food.

Transport has a lot to answer for when it comes to harming the planet.While cars and trains are
moving towards greener,electric power,emissions from air travel are expected to increase massively
by 2050.If we want big green sky solutions,we need blue sky thinking.Fortunately,there's plenty of
that happening right now,particularly the short-haul ()flights powered by batteries.
Harbour Air is the largest seaplane airline in North America,flying 30,000 commercial flights in
40 seaplanes each year.Significantly,all Harbour Air routes last less than 30 minutes,making it
perfectly fit for electric engines."As an airline,we're currently in the process of turning all our planes
into electric airplanes."says CEO Greg Mc Dougall.To make this happen,the airline has partnered up
with MagniX to create the world's first commercial flight with an electric engine.
Making the skies electric isn't just good for the environment,it also makes sound financial sense:
a small aircraft uses $400 on conventional fuel for a 100-mile flight,while an electric one costs $8-12
for the same distance,and that's before you factor in the higher maintenance costs of a traditional
engine.There's also the added bonus that electric planes are just much more pleasant to fly in.No loud
engine noise,no smell of fuel,just environmentally friendly peace and quiet.
While there has been real progress in the e-plane industry,the technical challenges that remain
are keeping everyone's feet firmly on the ground.A battery,even a lithium (one,only provides
250watt-hours per kilogram;compare this to liquid fuel,which has a specific energy of 11,890
watt-hours per kilogram.Carrying adequate batteries,however,would make the plane too heavy to get
off the ground.In aircraft,where every bit of weight counts,this can't just be ignored.
It's certainly an exciting time for electric flying though.With companies like Harbour Air taking
the lead,battery-powered planes,especially on short-haul journeys,are set to become a reality in the
next few years.
28.According to Paragraph 1,what is happening in air transport?
A.Pollution caused by batteries is being controlled.
B.Efforts are being made to make air travel greener.
C.Demand for short-haul flights is increasing massively.
D.New explorations of the sky are being launched.
29.The expression"added bonus"in Paragraph 3 refers to the fact that electric planes.
A.cost less in maintenance than traditional ones.
B.give passengers more pleasant views.
C.offer more enjoyable flying experiences
D.bring airlines more financial benefits.
30.What might be the biggest challenge of electric flying?
A.To balance power and weight of batteries in e-planes.
英语第5页共10页
B.To find qualified technicians for e-plane industry.
C.To improve the ground service for e-planes.
D.To calculate the energy needed to power e-planes.
31.What is the author's attitude towards the prospect of electric flying?
A.Doubtful.
B.Wait-and-see.
C.Short-sighted.
D.Positive.

When Meng Jintao was a child,power outages in his rural hometown sparked his curiosity:Why
can't we store electricity during regular times and use it when the power goes out?
Now 29,Meng has turned this childhood curiosity into reality with his advanced iron-based flow
energy storage system.Distinguished by its massive storage capacity,high safety standards,and long-
term endurance,this technology represents a major advancement in energy storage.
In 2013,Meng began his studies at Hefei University of Technology in Anhui,East China,
majoring in new energy materials and devices.During his university years,he traveled to Qinghai and
Gansu provinces in Northwest China for research,where he observed the initial successes of wind and
solar power projects.However,he learned from power station staff that much of the energy generated
by wind turbines was unstable and could not be effectively used.It was during this period that Meng
recognized the urgent need for advanced storage solutions to stabilize energy supply and release it
steadily to the grid,thereby increasing efficiency.This realization led him to develop the iron-based
flow energy storage system.
"This system functions like a large power bank for cities,"he explained.According to Meng,
while lithium (batteries are well-established,there is a growing need for a more affordable and
safer storage solution.He chose iron for its cost-efficiency and the abundant availability of iron
resources in China.Iron-based flow energy storage systems are also more economical and use water as
a solution,making them fire-resistant and safer.
In 2020,while pursuing his master's degree at Huazhong University of Science and Technology,
Meng achieved a significant milestone by successfully testing the first iron-based flow battery in his
lab."Seeing the battery model start its charging and discharging cycles was a moment of endless
pride,"he said,"with China announcing its double carbon goals,I wanted to transform my research
into a tangible product that could both benefit the country and make a difference."
Through continuous adjustments,accurate research,and determined experimentation,Meng and
his team completed their first kilowatt-level energy storage system in 2021,suitable for everyday use.
"I want to keep improving the technology to make energy storage safer and more cost-effective,both
in China and worldwide,"he said.
32.What can we know about Meng Jingtao?
A.Meng Jintao witnessed the success of traditional energy projects.
B.Meng Jintao has solved the problem of power cuts in rural areas.
英语第6页共10页
C.Meng Jintao has successfully find new solutions for energy storage.
D.Meng Jintao has still searched the material to turn his curiosity into reality.
33.What characteristic of iron led Meng Jintao to choose it?
A.Its work efficiency.
B.Its economic advantage
C.Its unlimited supply.
D.Its environmental friendliness.
34.Which of the following words can best describe Meng Jintao?
A.Special and patient.
B.Hard-working and outgoing.
C.Honest and kind.
D.Capable and determined.
35.What is the most suitable title for this passage?
A.From Curiosity to Creation:Meng Jintao's Journey in Energy Storage
B.Meng Jintao:Leading Figure in Power Generation Technology
C.Lithium vs.Iron:The Ongoing Battle for Better Energy Storage Solution
D.The Future of Renewable Energy:Strengths and Weaknesses

How to be alone with your thoughts
One reason people find spending quality time with their inner self so extremely unpleasant is that
every embarrassing or sad memory can come flooding back,effectively disturbing what was supposed
to be a moment of peace.36 Make a plan for your thinking time.
Make a list of topics you want to explore,like your upcoming winter vacation or what your life
would be like if you lived abroad.37 Ethan Kross,author of Chatter:The Voice in Our Head,
Why It Matters,and How to Hamess (It,is a supporter of using the time in specific activities,
like running or cycling,to think of creative solutions to research or writing.
38
Keep in mind that if you're constantly thinking over the same issues,you may get stuck in me
negative emotions of the experience without finding solutions.Try to think objectively about the issue
at hand to discover why you experienced the problem and to find a meaningful way forward.Or take
the conversation out of your head and into the real world with an adviser,like a teacher or close friend.
You don't have to sit with negative feelings,either.39
Start small and keep practicing alone time with your thoughts
40 "You can be calmer,"Kross says,"about giving yourself opportunities to have those
experiences more regularly."
A.Think about your emotional energy
B.Accept negative thoughts as they come
C.So let go of those emotions and just grit your teeth and bear it.
D.Turn to an activity you enjoy doing,like listening to music,reading,or gardening,to shift
英语第7页共10页
attention
E.So how can we disconnect from the noise and step into positive and inspired thinking?
F.This helps keep your thinking on track and gives you something to return to if your mind
moves away to less pleasant thoughts.
G.
Begin with a few minutes alone with your thoughts each day and build up as you feel
comfortable.

One of the most 56 (amaze)plants in the world is the Venus flytrap ()It is a small
meat-eating plant 57 lives in wet places in North and South Carolina,USA.Unlike most plants
that get nutrition from soil,this special plant can catch and eat small insects 58 (quick).
The plant has two parts on the end of its leaf,which work like a small trap.When an insect
touches the small hairs on the inside of the trap twice,the trap 59(close)by the plant 60
less than a second.This stops the small insect from running away.
Then the plant 61(produce)a kind of special juice to break down the insect's body.This
juice is very 62(power)and can digest the whole insect in just a few days.Scientists say that
this plant developed this special ability because the soil it grows in has very few 63(nutrient).
Many people don't know that the trap won't close 64 the insect is too small.This is because
the plant needs to get enough energy from the insect to make the whole process meaningful.Instead,it
will wait for 65 (big)insects that can provide it with enough nutrition.After finishing the

Last Saturday afternoon,I walked home alone after evening self-study.The sky turned dark early,
and the street lamps gave out soft dim light.The road was quiet,with only a few passers-by hurrying
home in the cold wind.
While I was walking around the community comer,I suddenly spotted an old man standing
motionless by the roadside.He looked confused and kept looking around,holding an old worn
handbag tightly in his hand.I slowed down and observed him for a while,sensing that he might have
lost his way.
I gathered up my courage and walked forward to ask if he needed help.With a weak smile,the
old man told me that he came to visit his grandson living in this community.However,he forgot the
exact building number after walking out of the supermarket.
I felt sympathy for the helpless old man.It was freezing outside,and staying longer would make
him catch a cold.I comforted him gently and decided to help him find his home.Yet the community
was large with countless similar buildings,making the search far from easy.
We wandered around the streets for nearly twenty minutes without progress.Just when I was
about to call the community security station for help,I noticed a familiar residential building sign not
far ahead.
