16、 with chickens at nine. It was really almost by accident-Orren played in a friends house whose family had chickens, and he became interested in the animals immediately. Later, he started volunteering every Saturday at a local farm; within a few months the farm-owner suggested that Orren get a few ch
17、icks of his own.“I dont know what it was, but something caught my interest, says Orren, now 14. Today Orren has 23 chickens, four ducks, and 250, 000 bees. His happy chickens lay a lot of healthy eggs, which he sells all the year round. He became a vegetarian(素食者) after he learned about the cruelty
18、and negative(消极的) environmental effects of factory farms. In his diary he writes about raising happy chickens and bees, food and healthy eating, farming, and generally making the world a better place. “Farming affects our earth more than anything else,” says Orren, “Its something you have to do corr
19、ectly, or it will ruin our planet. Its often ignored, but for me, learning about where my food comes from has been really interesting.”In fall 2009, Orren started a farm club at his school. “I wanted to get people to learn more about farming and what fun it is,”he says.Orrens passion(热情) for farming
20、 and other types of animals continues to grow. He went to the Essex Country Bee School in early 2010 to learn about beekeeping. Orren now has three beehives(蜂箱) of happy bees. In the summer of 2011，Orren started to sell his honey, BeeHappy, to local stores. Next, he wants to raise sheep and goats. “
21、I know a lot more about the environment and how farming affects it, but I still have a lot to learn,” says Orren. “I want to keep doing all of this as I get older.”24.

25、ch the length of the Sahel. The GGW is an ecological restoration project designed by African people for African people. Heavy rains, droughts, wildfires and landslides have all become common throughout the world. But nowhere is quite like the Sahel. In this huge African region, climate change has ma
26、terialized in a dramatic manner. In some cases, the severe conditions have left people with no option other than to migrate elsewhere to survive. It was with all of this in mind that the extraordinary, but heavily debated project was first put forward. Fourteen years have passed since the initiative
27、 formally kicked off. The stated goal was to create a 15-kilometre-wide, 8, 000-kilometre-long green belt of trees and other plants that, by 2030, would span（跨越）the entire width of the Sahel, from Senegal to Djibouti. Overall, 100 million hectares（公顷）of land would be restored by 2030. Once completed
28、, it was announced, the wall could end up capturing（俘获）250 million tonnes of carbon dioxide, while its creation and upkeep could create ten million jobs in rural areas. Looking at the project as a whole, theres still a long way to go. According to a status report by the UN Convention to Combat Deser
29、tification, about four million hectares of degraded land have been restored. This means that progress towards the 100 million hectares target stands at just four per cent. “When we started restoring the soil, we realized the area at risk was much wider than we initially thought,” explains Elvis Paul
30、 Tangem, the African Unions GGW coordinator. “We had few funds to push the initiative as much as we wanted to. There was skepticism among investors, who didnt understand the project, but also among the African states themselves, which needed time to figure out if the GGW was a priority.”28. What is
31、the purpose of the GGW project?A. To improve local ecology. B. To develop rural economy.C. To predict climate patterns. D. To strengthen regional ties.29. What do the statistics in paragraph 3 show of the initiative?A. The service period. B. The total budget.C. The targeted groups. D. The expected b
32、enefits.30. How does Elvis Paul Tangem feel about the project?A. Skeptical. B. Worried. C. Confident. D. Satisfied.31. What message does the author intend to convey in the text?A. African countries should stand together.B. The progress of the GGW project is slow.C. Fighting climate change is our top
33、 priority.D. Natural disasters are worse than we thought.DDifferent parts of a health care system have different focuses. A hospitals stroke(中风) unit monitors blood flow in the brain. The cardiac unit is interested in that same flow, but through and from the heart. Each collection of equipment and d
34、ata is effective in its own field. Thus, like the story of blind men feeling an elephant, modern health care offers many separate pictures of a patient, but rarely a useful united one. On top of all this, the instruments that doctors use to monitor health are often expensive, as is the training requ
35、ired to use them. That combined cost is too high for the medical system to scan the body regularly for early signs of illness, so patients are at risk of heart disease or a stroke. An unusual research project called AlzEye, run by Moorfields Eye Hospital in London, in cooperation with University Col
36、lege London (UCL), may change this. It is attempting to use the eye as a window through which signals about the health of other organs could be discovered. The doctors in charge of it, Siegfried Wagner and Pearse Keane, are studying Moorfields database of eye scans, which offers a detailed picture o
37、f the health of the retina(视网膜). The project will go a step further: with the information about other aspects of patients health collected from other hospitals around England, doctors will be able to look for more accurate signs of disease through eye scans. The Moorfields data set has lots of linke
38、d cases to work withfar more than any similar project. For instance, the U.K. Biobank, one of the worlds leading databases of medical data about individual people, contains 631 cases of a major cardiac adverse event. The Moorfields data contain about 12,000 such cases. The Biobank has data on about
39、1,500 stroke patients. Moorfields has 11,900. For the disease, dementia, on which the Moorfields project will focus to start with, the data set holds 15,100 cases. The only comparable study has 86. Wagner and Keane are searching for patterns in the eye that show the emergence of disease elsewhere in
40、 the body. If such patterns could be recognized reliably, the potential impact would be huge.32. What does “the story of blind men feeling an elephant mean in Paragraph 1?A. It meansa blind man looks like an elephant. .B. It means the similarity in various health care units.C. It means the limitatio
41、n of modem health care.D. It means the ineffectiveness of our health care system33. What does the underlined word this in Paragraph 3 refer to?A. The challenge of making advanced medical instruments.B. The high risk of getting heart disease or a stroke.C. The inconvenience of modem health care servi

Helping doctors cure ones disease of the eye.D. Collecting the eye-scan data from different hospitals.35. Ho

45、 . Regardless of your fitness level when you start playing sports, youll notice an increase in your overall fitness once youre involved. Nearly every sport requires physical activities and the competitive skills.Basketball players focus on strength training; football players work on speed while trac
46、k athletes train through longer runs. The training process helps promote physical fitness and performances in competitions. Its not just your body that benefits from sports. 38 . A pat on the back, a high five from a teammate, or a handshake after a match really boosts a childs confidence. Words of praise and encouragement from the coach, parents and other players raise the self-worth. But remember, a childs self-worth should not be distinguished by victory or loss.So after a game, its a better idea to ask “Did you enjoy the game?” rather than “Did you win?” Children who participate
