The cycle was full of coconuts and on the handle was his small red money purse and the machete that he

25、used to cut the coconuts. He always wore a blue and black checkered lungi and was known for his toothless smile that tended to turn into a slight laugh.He often announced the arrival of summer by standing under our villages Gulmohar tree. During the first touch of summer, red flowers fell on the gro

26、und and welcomed him to our village; soon the red flowers turned into long sword-like fruits which hung above his head as he cut the coconuts.He never ate anything except paan (a kind of leaf), which he always could be seen chewing, and he just sat under the tree until someone approached him. Then,

27、he would choose the best coconut, and with expert skill, carve it so that the person could drink the satisfying liquid.For me he was an artist who knew how to carve the green coconut into an oasis (绿洲) of relief. He was the coconut whisperer, who knew which one had more water. Nobody ever talked abo

28、ut him, for he was of no significance to the busy people of our village. His existence will forever be tied to the shadow of the Gulmohar tree.Nowadays, he doesnt do much business. Kids no longer care for coconut water; they want soft drinks. I know his weak body will fail him in the coming years. H

29、e will not visit our village, and with him, all my memories of summer will disappear. No one will miss him apart from the Gulmohar tree, his only friend.My friends and I have stayed in the same village our whole life. Now, in our mid-thirties, we dont have time to talk about our childhood and the li

30、te beyond the chains of society.Ive made up my mind. Tomorrow I will talk with him. I will listen to him and preserve him in my memory. I will tell him how important he was for me, how he defined summer for me, and, during every summer, how he nurtured (滋养) me with the coconut water, which was fille

33、. Free yourself from the pressure of society.C. Enjoy the simple things in your busy life.D. Appreciate something before its gone.【2527题答案】【答案】25. B26. A27. DCOne question every coach has beard in their coaching career is this.“Why isnt my kid playing?”The stupidity of many “win-at-all-cost” coaches

34、 in youth sports is neatly matched by that of “play-my-kid-or-else” parents at the high-school level.When the games start to count, the main reason why your kid isnt playing is simple:“Theyre just not good enough.”“He/she just isnt fast enough.”“He/she just isnt strong enough.”Good coaches, however,

35、 are not usually that blunt. They are very skillful in not telling what you and I would consider the “truth”. The thing is that many kids know what theyre good at, and what theyre not good at. When it comes to football, for instance, most of the middle-schoolers or freshmen already know the one or t

36、wo kids who are good enough to play on the varsity team or to catch the eye of a college admissions officer. Their parents do not.The rest play because they enjoy it, need the discipline, want to belong to a team, have dreamed of it since they were five or six, are trying to make their parents happy

37、, need a varsity sport on their college application, or some combination of the factors above. Some of them dont possess much athletic skill, but make up for it by practicing, by getting stronger and quicker, and with on-field effort.Far too many children today are living in a world where they never

38、 learn “no”. They dont know how to handle disappointment and failure. Nor do they know how to react and move on when they dont get their own way.Its awful when your kid isnt playing. Been there, done that. No reasonable parent wants to see their child hurt. But no one escapes this life unhurt, emoti

39、onally if not physically. When these kids move on in life, they arc going to get rejected when they apply for college, fail to get the job they want, and taste failure and disappointment on multiple fronts.Coaches should try to make sure everyone gets some playing time. But that should never come at

40、 the expense of other kids who arc more talented, try harder or spend more time practicing. No child should ever go out for any team thinking theyre going to be guaranteed a spot or playing time, no matter how loudly their parents complain.In that sense, sports are a true mirror of life. No one is g

41、uaranteed “playing” time in life. For the most part, hard work, effort, planning and desire is rewarded. The benefits can be wonderful. But its good to be prepared when it doesnt work out that way.28. What does the underlined word “blunt” probably mean?A. Impatient.B. Annoying.C. Direct.D. Serious.2

42、9. The author believes that _.A. kids should learn how to face rejection in their lifeB. people can live a life without being emotionally hurtC. parents must help kids escape disappointment and failureD. coaches need to ensure every student gets enough playing time30. What probably motivated the aut

43、hor to write this passage?A. Coaches mistaken beliefs about varsity teams.B. Parents unrealistic views of kids playing time.C. Childrens ignorance of the meaning of sports and life,D. The publics doubts about why kids need to play sports.【2830题答案】【答案】28. C29. A30. BDThe US scientists who created the

44、 first living robots say the life forms, known as xenobots, can now reproduceand in a way not seen in plants and animals. Xenobots are formed from the stem cells of the African clawed frog (Xenopus laevis), from which it takes its name.“Frogs have a way of reproducing that they normally use, but whe

45、n you liberate the stem cells from the embryo(胚胎) and you give them a chance to figure out how to be in a new environment, not only do they figure out a new way to move, but they also figure out apparently a new way to reproduce,” said Michael Levin, a professor of biology at Tufts University, who w

46、as co-lead author of the new research.Stem cells are unspecialized cells that have the ability to develop into different cell types. To make the xenobots, the researchers removed living stem cells from frog embryos and left them to develop.“Most people think of robots as being made of metal, but its

47、 not so much what a robot is made from but what it does, which is act on its own on behalf of people,” said Josh Bongard, a computer science professor and robotics expert at the University of Vermont and lead author of the study. “In that way, its a robot, but its also clearly an organism made from

48、frog cells.”The researchers found that the xenobots could replicate(自我复制). But it happened rarely and only in specific circumstances. The xenobots used “kinetic replication”a process that is known to occur at the molecular(分子) level.With the help of artificial intelligence, the researchers then tested billions of body shapes to make the xenobots more effective at this type of replication. The supercomputer came up w
