At this time, a boy approach
11、ed me. He stood right before me, and said with great excitement, “Look what I found!” In his hand was a flower, and what a pitiful sight, with its petals (花瓣) all worn. Wanting him to take his flower and go off to play, I faked a small smile and then turned to the other side. But instead of leaving,
12、 he sat next to my side and placed the flower to his nose and declared, “It really smells pretty and its beautiful, too. Thats why I picked it. Here, its for you.” The flower before me was dying or dead. But I knew I must take it, or he might never leave. So I reached for the flower, and replied, “J
13、ust what I need.” But instead of placing the flower in my hand, he held it in mid-air. It was then that I noticed that the boy was blind. I heard my voice quiver (轻微颤抖), and at the same time my tears shone like the sun. As I thanked him for picking the very best one, he smiled and said, “Youre welco
14、me.” And then he ran off to play, unaware of the impact hed had on me. I sat there and wondered how he managed to see a self-pitying woman beneath an old tree. Perhaps from his heart, hed been blessed with true sight. Through the eyes of the blind boy, I could see the problem was not with the world;
15、 the problem was me. And for all of those times I had been blind. From now on I vowed to see beauty and appreciate every second thats mine. Then I held the flower up to my nose and breathed its fragrance and smiled as that young boy.21. When she sat down to read on the bench, the author _.A. felt re
16、laxed and peaceful B. wanted to have a friend keeping her company C. felt upset and unhappy with her life D. felt proud to have overcome the difficulties in life22. The author decide to take the flower at first because_A. she was really moved by the boy. B. she didnt want to hurt the young boy. C. s
17、he didnt like being bothered by the boy any more.D. she thought the flower was really beautiful. 23. Which of the following can best describe the boy?A. Independent and active. B. Kind and optimistic. C. Handsome and intelligent.D. Warmhearted and sensitive.BDoes your brain work like a dictionary? A
18、 mathematical analysis of the connections among definitions of English words has uncovered hidden structures that may resemble the way words and their meanings are represented in our minds.“We want to know how the mental vocabulary is represented in the brain,” says Stevan Harnad of the University o
19、f Quebec in Montreal, Canada.As every word in a dictionary is defined (下定义) in terms of others, the knowledge needed to understand the entire vocabulary is there. Harnads team reasoned that finding this smallest set of words and pinning down its structure might help research on how human brains put
20、language together.The team changed each of four different English dictionaries into a mathematical structure of linked nodes (节点) known as a graph. Each node in this graph represents a word, which is linked to the other words used to define it so “banana” might be connected to “long”, “bendy”, “yell
21、ow”, and “fruit”.But even this tiny set is not the smallest number of words you need to produce the whole dictionary, as many of these words can in turn be fully defined by others in the kernel (核心). Whats more, the kernel has a deeper structure.So what, if anything, can this tell us about how our b
22、rains represent words and concepts? To find out the answer, Harnads team looked at data on how children acquire words and found a pattern: as you move in from the full dictionary towards the kernel, words which have been acquired at a younger age tend to be used more often, and refer to more concret
23、e concepts.But the connection does suggest that our brains may structure language somewhat similarly to a dictionary.Phil Blunsom, at University of Oxford isnt convinced that word meanings can be reduced to a chain of definitions. “Its treating words in such a symbolic fashion that they are going to
24、 lose a lot of the meaning.” But Mark Pagel of the University of Reading, UK, expects the approach to new insights. “This will be most useful in giving us a sense of how our minds structure meaning.” he says. 24. The first paragraph serves as a(n) _ in the passage. A. comparison between human brains
25、 and a dictionary B. conclusion that your brain is just like a dictionary C. contradiction between definitions of English words D. introduction to the question whether your brain works like a dictionary25. What does the underlined phrase “pinning down” in Paragraph 3 mean here? A. fixing firmlyB. ex
26、plaining simplyC. making clearly D. putting formally26. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage? A. Children acquire words and form patterns more easily than adults.B. Harnads findings may explain how human brains put language together.C. Our brains may structure language
27、exactly similarly to a dictionary. D Many of the words can in turn be fully defined by using its similar words.CImagine being a business that regularly takes huge quantities of your own products worth millions of pounds and burns them up. Your stock literally goes up in smoke. It sounds crazy, but t
28、he practice is common for some of the worlds biggest clothing manufacturers. They argue that it is the most cost-effective way of maintaining their brands exclusivity(独特性).The clothes that are burned are those that do not sell at a high enough price. Rather than watch them go on sale, the companies
29、would set fire to them and regain a small amount of energy.Nobody knows exactly how much unsold stock is burnt annually by those fashion houses, but burning clothes has various negative impacts on the environment. For example burning clothes made from artificial fibers may release plastic microfiber
30、s into the atmosphere, which worsens global warming. AU. K parliamentary committee report on sustainability and the fashion industry advises the government to ban the burning of unsold stock if it can be reused or recycled.Actually, there are other approaches. What if those companies had a section t
31、asked with taking back unsold clothes, redesigning them into new products, and shipping out the new products to the market once again?There is also now an opportunity to focus on biodegradable (可生物降解的) fabrics. Clothes that break down faster might not have to be burned. They would also appeal to tho
32、se who care about the environmental impact of their own wardrobes.Additionally, we have an over-production problem. According to the World Bank, while clothing sales have risen steadily since 2000, clothing utilization has fallen at roughly the same rate. For every extra T-shirt that is sold, it wil
33、l be worn roughly half as much as it would have been 20 years ago. That means better forecasting market trends would in theory result in less waste.Burning clothes wont happen simply through fashion firms. The scale of fashion production has to change. And its important to recognize that these consu
34、mer-focused brands will only go where the market takes them. If protecting the environment really matters to the public, they have to make clear that they want more sustainable clothing in the first place. Without consumers demanding that, it wont change.27. Paragraph Three mainly talks about_A. how
35、 important the U.K. parliamentary committee report isB. why fashion firms should end burning unsold stockC. why fashion firms bum unsold clothes in large numbers every yearD. how artificial fabrics will contribute to global warming28. The underlined expression “clothing utilization” in the sixth par

According to the article, which of the following is NOT a better way of dealing with unsold clothes than burning them?A. Redesigning and making them into new clothesB. Making
