15、esh my spirit. After too many hours, Naasih and I arrived in the slum(贫民窟) just as the sun was breaking across the smoggy Delhi sky. It seemed as if the small houses extended for miles, an ocean of tin roofs and laundry lines. Finally, Naasih stopped and turned to me. “Give me your bag,” he said. I
16、handed it to him. I had promised to follow his directions, and in return, I was hoping to find whatever I thought was missing from my life. “I will meet you back here at sunset,” Naasih said and walked away.

After lunch, Sankar took me to play basketball with a group of children in a trash-filled field down the road. The sun was beginning to
19、fall as the laughter of the basket games echoed (发出回声) across the slum. I had been so caught up in my day with Sankar. I had started the morning in fear and exhaustion, but I was ending the day connected to something much larger. After the game, Sankar and I walked to Rata Road. There stood Naasih.

Your test was excellent.” You can hardly believe your ears. Our fight or flight response is designed to protect us from tigers that wou

When activated, the response causes stress hormones to pump through our body.When we face very real dangers to our survival, it is invalua
27、ble. However, few of the “tigers” we face in our lives cause a serious physical threat to our existence. They cause us no end of stress, triggering(引发) the full activation of our fight or flight response. They tend to cause us to overreact to the situation in a counterproductive (事与愿违的) way. It is c
28、ounterproductive to hit someone (the fight response) or run away (the flight response).By recognizing the symptoms, we can begin to take steps to handle the stress overload.

33、in sea level.The study, published in the journal Land Use Policy, showed that the booming global population could make the matter worse. The researchers expected that there are about 1. 4 billion “climate change refugees(难民)” in the world by 2060 and by 2100 the number of the homeless people due to
34、the rising sea level could reach up to two billion.“Were going to have more people on less land and sooner than we think,” said lead author Charles Geisler, professor at Cornell. “The future rise in global average sea level probably wont be gradual. Yet few policy makers are observing the significan
35、t barriers that coastal climate refugees, like other refugees, will run into when they move to higher ground.”For the study, the researchers reviewed potential problems that climate change refugees may face if they go deeper inland. The researchers were able to provide primary estimates of their los
36、s on inland resettlement space. The researchers found that some inland regions were unlikely to support new waves of climate change refugees due to the remains of war, road developments and rare natural resources.Apart from the rising sea level, increasing storm weather and the booming global popula
37、tion are also having a huge influence on the numbers of climate change refugees. Storm can push seawater further inland. The increasing global population requires more land even as the ocean swallows up rich coastal zones and the river deltas. These force people to search for new places to move to h

Policy makers should think more for climate change refugees.34. Why do climate change refugees fail to move to some inland regions?A.
40、Because they cant live a normal life there.B. Because they cant adapt to the climate there.C. Because they will go to war.D. Because they will destroy the natural resources.35. What does the author stress in the last paragraph?A. In the future climate will become worse.B. The earth will see more cli

BAge of Selfie (自拍照) ArtistsWhen youre out with a friend and take a photo of yourselves, do you know that you are also creating a selfie, a work of art? Or that you are competing with Vincent van Gogh himself? Probably not. Your i
77、dea might be to show off your selfie on WeChat or QQ, but you probably dont think of the internet as a gallery or of yourself as an artist. But the chief executive of London Saatchi Gallery, Nigel Hurst, thinks that the casual pictures we take of ourselves have something in common with self-portrait
78、s(自画像) by the great masters. In support of the idea, the Saatchi Gallery has a new exhibition called From Selfie to Self-Expression. It features well-known self-portraits from artists including Dutch painter Van Gogh and Rembrandt. It also has selfies on show that have “quickly become icons(偶像) of t
79、he digital age”. These include one taken by Kim Kardashian and another of former US President Barack Obama with former UK Prime Minister David Cameron, according to the BBC. The gallery is even encouraging visitors to add their own selfies to the show.Hurst is perhaps not being 100 percent serious.
80、He isnt saying that a photo you take of yourself in your favorite restaurant can be compared with a self-image painted by Van Gogh. But he does make a serious point. Once upon a lime, it was only artists who could make images of themselves. Today, however, we all have that ability through our smartp
81、hones. The popularity of the selfie rocketed after smartphones started to become widely used. And Hurst described the smartphone selfie as an example of “a shift in society using technology as a means of self-expression”. He told The Guardian: “The selfie generation is becoming the self-expression g
82、eneration as each of us seeks to explore and share our inner creativity through the one artistic tool to which we all have accessthe smartphone.”24. Why did the author mention Vincent van Gogh in the first paragraph?A. To stress the topic of the text. B. To provide background information.C. To advis
83、e readers to take more selfies. D. To persuade readers to create works of art. 25. What does Nigel Hurst think of the selfies?A. Theyre worth collecting. B. Theyre good for social changes. C. Theyre a means of expressing oneself. D. Theyre equal to self-poraits by the great masters. 26. Whats the ma
84、in idea of the third paragraph?A. The exhibitions on show. B. The influence of selfies. C. The importance of the exhibition. D. The preparations for the exhibition. 27.

On the ground level, visitors read animal adoption stories displayed on screens. But the animals
89、were the main attraction. Visitors played with cats and rabbits housed inside quiet rooms or watched dogs showcased(玻璃柜台) in their own private glass “suites” (套房).

90、quest an appointment with adoption specialists to find the right match. Adoptions carry an $80 fee.The facility partnered with organizations across the city to develop its programming.
