8、fts.CA family that shop for daily necessities.DA daughter who is browsing for Fathers Day.A bright and impressive bus carrying fresh local produce appeared in a community of North Carolina in June 2022. It was the first pay-what-you-can Mobile Market. As the name implies, shoppers could pay any pric

9、e out of their own will. Even the suggested price was about 25% less than that offered in grocery stores. This market gave shoppers a dignified way to provide food for their families regardless of their budget.Seeing the joy in shoppers eyes, Will Komegay, the founder of this non-profit programMobil

10、e Market, felt a sense of accomplishment. He had once witnessed a wasteful and unfortunate reality. At that time, countless pounds of food had to be thrown away by farmers due to the interruption in the supply chain. Meanwhile, millions of people were struggling to afford enough food to feed their f

11、amilies. Kornegay didnt want to stand by.With much working experience in food industry and background about how food system was designed, Kornegay decided to use his companys vast network of farmer and food industry relationships to address the issue. His team used buses to bridge the farmers, the f

12、ood industries and communities that needed food most. Thousands of pounds of food that was sourced from local partners was placed into homes.Kornegay still remembered how the first Mobile Market came into being. His team made a detailed plan and chose the colors and images they preferred. Then they

13、purchased a “retired” school bus and renovated it, giving it a new different look and equipping it with refrigerators and freezers. Thus was born the first Mobile Market.To date, the project has partnered with dozens of local farmers and food producers and has already served an estimated 10,000 fami

14、lies over 150,000 pounds of food. In 2023, the team hope to serve 80 sites across 20 counties in Eastern North Carolina. Their vision is to perfect the project where they live, and scale into every state nationwide.4What is the purpose of the Mobile Market?ATo boost the income of local residents.BTo

17、nd.DIt is estimated to provide worldwide service.Scientists have recently discovered the worlds largest known field of sea grass. They did it using videos shot by some extraordinary helpers. The work should help protect the sea grass, and also shows off a powerful way to explore the ocean.As a shelt

18、er for many sea creatures, sea grasses are flowering plants that normally grow in shallow waters near coasts. They grow in thick fields, known as seagrass meadows (海草床), which help clean the ocean water. More importantly, they are called “ocean lung”. They help in the fight against the climate crisi

19、s. Thats because they store huge amounts of carbonthe major source of global warming. Damaging these seagrass meadows can release this pollutant again, making things worse.Considering the urgent need to protect seagrass meadows, scientists are eager to know about their size and number. However, the

20、meadows can be hard to spot from above, either because the water is too deep or not clear enough. And the ocean is so huge that its hard to study them by diving. So scientists decided to have tiger sharks help the research.Tiger sharks are inborn fast swimmers, and spend a lot of time in seagrass me

21、adows. Between 2016 and 2020, the researchers attached cameras and other trackers to the fins of seven tiger sharks, and then let them go again. The cameras were designed to fall off after hours and float to the surface. Tracking signals helped find the floating cameras and collect the videos the sh

22、arks had taken while traveling for miles. Moreover, other tools were used, including satellite images, as well as images taken by divers and boats.Putting all this information together, the scientists learned that the waters around the Bahamas are home to the largest seagrass meadow ever discovered.

23、 And the meadows cover at least 25,500 square miles, and could be as large as 35,500 square miles.Different from previous studies, the program discovers how useful large underwater animals can be in helping to learn more about life under the sea. Oliver Shipley, a scientist from the team, says anima

26、text?ALeading scientists.BAdvanced theories.CMultiple experimental tools.DUnusual research assistants.11Which is the most suitable title for the text?AMan and Nature Work TogetherBA Novel Way to Explore the SeaCSea Grass: An Undervalued PlantDOcean Lung Measured by Natural ExplorersThe Roman Colosse

27、um( 罗马圆形大剧场), built around two thousand years ago, survived a 14th century earthquake and most of the 150-some foot high building is still standing. It has seen the rise and fall of enormous structures as well as the Roman Empire. Why could the ancient structure stand the test of time while many mod

28、ern constructions fall apart after a few decades? Scientists believe the ancient Romans used a specific concrete which may account for its super-long existence.Previous discoveries have confirmed the components of the Roman concrete: volcanic material, limestone (石灰石) and water. Architects suppose t

29、he volcanic material is what makes the building strongwhich it does. But this is not enough to explain the architectures durability. A team of researchers recently discovered a magical power of the Roman concrete: self-healing. And the key actually lies in the tiny pieces of limestone. Worth mention

30、ing is that researchers had taken them as impurities (杂质) due to the limitation of ancient technology. But it turned out that ancient Romans seemed to have discovered the secret.When the Romans made the mixture, they heated up the limestone to turn it into quicklime, a very reactive chemical. Quickl

31、ime reacted with water and produced heat that set up a chemical foundation to strengthen the building material. Meanwhile, it would “wear” a hard “shell”, forming limestone pieces. It was these pieces that stopped the cracks (裂缝) from becoming bigger. When there was rain, the pieces reacted with wat

32、er again, quickly filling the cracks.For material scientist Ainissa Ramirez, this new understanding of ancient Roman concrete is a welcome discovery. “This is one way that the material can be greener,” says Ramirez, “The Romans made the material. We had to kind of figure out how they did it so that

33、we can make better materialsand then, you know, in turn, be better guards of our environment.”12Why could Roman Colosseum still exist according to the text?AIt was rebuilt constantly.BIt met few natural disasters.CIt contained a special material.DIts shape increased the stability.13What is the funct

34、ion of the limestone pieces?ATo purify the concrete.BTo react with volcanic material.CTo make the structure water-proof.DTo enable the building to repair itself.14What does the underlined word “it” in paragraph 3 refer to?AThe rainwater.BThe foundation.CThe quicklimeDThe limestone.15What can be infe

35、rred from Ainissa Ramirezs words?AArchitects can get inspiration from ancient structures.BThe Romans building method remains a secret till now.CRomans wisdom throws light on eco-friendly architecture.DScientists are exploring how to guard the ancient civilization.二、七选五How to get a good letter of rec

36、ommendationYour professors are often asked to write hundreds of letters of recommendation during teaching in colleges. _16_, they do play a key role in helping employers get an idea of an applicants personality, persistence, and passion. Here are four points to keep in mind when it comes to asking f

37、or letters of recommendation._17_. Ideally, the letter writer will know you well and have plenty of positive things to say without much make-up. But it never hurts to share your personal statement that includes your accomplishments and passions. After all, its you that know how to let your highlight

38、s stand out.Dont tell your professor what to say. This one is a little tricky, because it seems to contradict the tip above. _18_, but avoid telling him exactly what to write. Professors know how to pen an effective letter of recommendation well.Dont ask for a letter at the last minute. Rule of thum

39、b: Give the professor at least a few months notice. Remember, your professor will spend quite a while composing the letter of recommendation, so express your request in a respectful, appreciative and thoughtful way. A last minute request will annoy the professor, and it may also lead to a sub- stand

40、ard letter. _19_.Express your gratitude. A thoughtful letter of recommendation takes time. _20_. Most professors write dozens of recommendations, if not more. Be sure to let them know that you appreciate their time and effort. Dont risk ending up with a regret by forgetting to send a handwritten not

41、e with a sincere thank you.ANobody wins in such a hurryBExpose a real yourself accordinglyCMaintain a good relationship with themDAnd chances are you arent the only one askingEGive the professor a broad outline about your requestFWhile these letters may not be as important as test scoresGBecause the

42、 employers care much about the recommendation三、完形填空In my primary school, we used to write a lot in Mrs. Whites class. There were many mistakes in my writings. But no red _21_. Instead, always a star. Sometimes _22_ a Good! I would jump with joy at it. But this _23_ my mother. She wanted to figure ou

43、t why Mrs. White never _24_ spelling or grammatical errors. Then one day she went to see her.Mrs. White replied, “Children are just beginning to get _25_ about using words, about forming sentences. I dont want to _26_ that enthusiasm or put any pressure on them with red ink. Spelling and grammar can

44、 wait, but the _27_ of words won t” And maybe she didnt say it _28_ like that. But whats for sure is that I grew up learning to use words with _29_ confidence from her.It occurs to me that if Mrs. White had used her red pen more _30_, I probably wouldnt be telling you about this now. Looking back, I

45、 think she was such a(n) _31_ teacherto exercise “red-pen-restriction”. She allowed the joy, wonder and excitement of expression to come out.In middle school, I used to _32_ the word beautiful as “baeutiful”. Although “pretty” is _33_ to spell, it doesnt hold as much as you mean sometimes. So I told

46、 myself that if I was going to _34_ the word, the least I could do was spell it right. Eventually, I made it.And thanks to Mrs. White, I had no _35_ when writing what I meant even if I couldnt quite spell it out. Because Life isnt Pretty. Its “Baeutiful”.21AsignalsBcorrectionsCremarksDsymbols22Aeven
