11、ion Aim The Master Gardener Foundation provides free information to the public on environmentally safe gardening practices and water conservation. The information is research-based and encourages limited use of farm chemicals and fertilizers. Donation Activities The master gardeners here did much do
12、nation work. They donated over 35,000 volunteer hours, serving 40,000 adults and more than 5,200 children. They did this through about 35 plant clinics, 6 demonstration gardens, 4 youth gardens, as well as a classroom program and dozens of workshops. The Master Gardener Foundation provides roughly t
13、wo-thirds of the financial support for all these valuable activities. Washington State University currently provides the salary and benefits of the Master Gardener Program. The foundation funds office space and supplies, as well as a part-time program assistant. The Master Gardener Program Safe and

18、teps. As he grows you also age, and your ambitions become more unachievable. You begin to realize that your boy, in your footsteps, could probably accomplish what you hoped for. But footsteps can be muddied and they can go off in different directions. My son Jody has hated school since day one in ki
19、ndergarten. Science projects waited until the last moment. Book reports werent written until the final threat. Ive been a newspaperman all my adult life. My daughter is a university graduate working towards her masters degree in English. But Jody? When he entered the tenth grade he became a “vo-tech
20、” student(技校 学生). Theyre called “motorheads” by the rest of the student body. When a secretary in my office first called him “motorhead”, I was shocked. “Hey, hes a good kid,” I wanted to say. “And smart, really.” I learned later that motorheads are, indeed, different. They usually have dirty hands
21、and wear dirty work clothes. And they dont often make school honor rolls(光荣榜). But being the parent of a motorhead is itself an experience in education. We who labor in clean shirts in offices dont have the abilities that motorheads have. I began to learn this when I had my car crashed. The cost to
22、repair it was estimated at $800. “Hey, I can fix it,” said Jody. I doubted it, but let him go ahead, for I had nothing to lose. My son, with other motorheads, fixed the car. They got parts from a junkyard, and ability from vo-tech classes. The cost was $25 instead of $800. Since that first repair jo

These kids are happiest when doing repairs. They joke and laugh and are living in their own relaxed world. And their minds are bright despite th
24、eir dirty hands and clothes. I have learned a lot from my motorhead: publishers need printers, engineers need mechanics, and architects need builders. Most important, I have learned that fathers dont need clones in footsteps or anywhere else. My son may never make the school honor roll. But he made

28、 Life expectancy in the United States has been in decline for the first time in decades, and public health officials have identified a series of potential causes, including inaccessible health care, rising drug addiction and rates of mental health disorders, and socio-economic factors. Now, a study
29、led by the Yale School of Medicine has attempted to find out the relative impact of two factors most often linked to life expectancyrace and educationby looking at data about 5,114 black and white participants in four U.S. cities. The lives and deaths among this group of peoplewho took part in the s
30、tudy approximately 30 years ago when they were in their early 20sshow that the level of education, and not race, is the best predictor of who will live the longest. Among the 5,114 people followed in the study, 395 had died. These deaths were occurring in working-age people, often with children, bef
31、ore the age of 60. The rates of death among participants in this group did clearly show racial differences, with approximately 9% of blacks dying at an early age compared to 6% of whites. There were also differences in causes of death by race. For instance, black men were significantly more likely t
32、o die of murder and white men from AIDS. The most common causes of death across all groups over time were cardiovascular disease and cancer. But there were also obvious differences in rates of death by education level. Approximately 13% of participants with a high school degree or less education die
33、d compared with only approximately 5% of college graduates. Strikingly, when looking at race and education at the same time, the researchers found that differences related to race almost disappeared: 13.5% of black subjects and 13.2% of white subjects with a high school degree or less died during th
34、e course of the study. By contrast, 5.9% of black subjects and 4.3% of whites with college degrees had died. Therefore, improving overall quality of education is something tangible that can help reverse(扭转) this troubling trend in reduction of life expectancy among middle-aged adults. 28. What can w
35、e learn about the participants in the study? A. The whites are more aggressive. B. The whites got higher education. C. More blacks than whites died young. D. More whites than blacks died of cancer. 29. Compared with education, the influence of race on death rates is . A. significant B. unnoticeable
36、C. growing D. long-lasting 30. What does the underlined word “tangible” probably mean? A. Realistic. B. Creative. C. Challenging. D. Temporary. 31. What can be inferred from the research findings？ A. People can get smart through learning. B. One should not discriminate other races. C. People dont en
37、joy equal rights for education. D. One can live longer by getting more education. D Tests have shown robots can diagnose heart problems in as little as four seconds, as a review of artificial intelligence(AI) finds machines are now as good at spotting illness as doctors. Analyzing a patients heart f
38、unction on a cardiac MRI(心脏磁共振成像) scan currently takes doctors around 13 minutes. But a new trial by University College London (UCL) showed an AI program could read the scans in less time with equal accuracy. There are approximately 150,000 such scans performed in the UK each year, and researchers e
39、stimate that fully using AI to read them could save 54 clinician-days(临床天数) at each cardiac centre per year. So it can make up for the shortage of doctors. It is hoped that AI where computer systems are able to learn from data to identify new patterns with minimal human intervention will transform m
40、edicine by helping doctors spot diseases such as heart disease and cancer faster and earlier. However, most scans are still read by specially trained doctors. Dr Charlotte Manisty, who led the UCL research, said, “Cardiovascular MRI offers incomparable image quality for assessing heart structure and
41、 function. However, current manual analysis remains basic and outdated. Automated machine techniques offer the potential to change this and completely improve efficiency and accuracy, and we look forward to further research that could confirm the superiority to human analysis.” She added, “Our datas
42、et of patients with a range of heart disease who received scans enabled us to demonstrate that the greatest sources of measurement errors arise from human factors. This indicates that automated techniques are at least as good as humans, with the potential soon to be super-humantransforming clinical
43、and research measurement precision.” Professor Alastair Denniston said, “Within those handful of high-quality studies, we found that by deep learning Al could indeed detect disease ranging from cancer to eye disease as accurately as health professionals. But its important to note that it did not abs
44、olutely exceed human professional diagnosis.” 32. Which of the following can best describe this AI program? A. Time-consuming. B. Environmentally friendly. C. Extremely unpractical. D. Labor-saving. 33. What is Charlotte Manistys expectation of automated machine techniques? A. To treat eye disease f
45、aster and earlier. B. To analyze heart disease efficiently and accurately. C. To combine manual with automated analysis. D. To confirm heart structure and function. 34. What did Alastair Denniston say about AI? A. It would be super-human soon. B. It couldnt completely replace expert doctors. C. It w
46、ould correct professionals measurement errors. D. It couldnt detect cancer as accurately as health professionals. 35. What is the main idea of the text? A. AI has many shortcomings in practice. B. AI totally shows its superiority to human analysis. C. AI can reduce medical errors arising from human
47、factors. D. AI can diagnose heart disease as well as doctors in less time. 第二节（共 5 小题；每小题 2.5 分，满分 12.5 分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 If you look around the streets of London, youll see the many methods people use to move around. 36. Now theres a new addition: electric, or e-scooters(
48、电滑板车). This traditional childrens vehicle has become more complicated over the years. And now, with the addition of a small electric motor, its become a cheap and easy mode of transport. Scooting around town can be fun and doesnt involve much effort. 37. But considering accidents involving an electr
49、ic scooter in the UK, questions are being asked about their safety and whether traffic laws should be changed. Many e-scooter riders in the UK broke the law. Some have been seen on pavements, others on the road jumping red traffic lights, adding to the frustration of motorists stuck in jams. In the UK, the law states that riding one on the public highway or pavement is forbidden. But, despite this, it seems the increasing popularity of e-scooters means they can be seen everywhere. 38.
