And it is one that produces wonderful resultsfood
11、for your dinner table and flowers for your home! Gardens themselves can be very beautiful. So you would think thata garden path is a great place to be. Well, in conversation, it is not. Leading someone up the garden pathmeans you arc trying to trick him. You are not trying to show him your beautiful
12、 flowers.Speaking of beautiful flowers, gardeners love to see small buds forming on their plants. Besides plants and flowers, people can bud, too. If a child is good at drawing and painting, we can call him a buddingartist. Or if someone just completed law school, we could call her a budding lawyer.
13、On the opposite end, you stop something from growing if you “nip it in the bud”. This is a common expression when we talk about stopping something bad. Its good to nip small problems in the bud beforethey turn into big problems.Now, a problem that many gardeners have is weeds. Weeds grow easily and
14、can quickly take over a garden. In conversation, we sometimes use “weeds” to mean too many details. So, if you are in the weeds,you are taken over by too many details. For example, lets say a politician is delivering a speech onaffordable housing. But she gives too much information on the legislativ
15、e (立法的)process needed to reachher goal. You could say,4*She is really in the weeds. People stopped listening 20 minutes ago. They justwant to know if they are going to be able to buy a house or not.”21. According to the text,“budding” is used to describe something or somebody _.A. that is difficult

The role of English expressions in peoples life.BYou probably know Machu Picchu and the Taj Mahal as famous UNESCO World Heritage sites一structures and monuments of gr
18、eat cultural value. But what about Beijing opera? Or the art ofpizza-making in Naples? What do these have in common?Traditions like these are known as “intangible cultural heritage”. In comparison with UNESCO World Heritage sites, intangible heritage does not include buildings like palaces and templ
19、es. Instead, it includestraditional art forms,such as music,dance,and craft-makingliving traditions that are an important part ofa places culture.UNESCO began to identify cultural traditions in 2008. By 2017, UNESCO had approved (批准)more than 300 diverse practices. These include cultural events like
20、 the Chinese Dragon Boat Festival,performing arts like Spanish flamenco, and handicrafts like Japanese washi paper-making. In 2010,UNESCO also began to include important regional cuisines, starting with French and Mexican food.Cultural rituals (仪式)are an important part of the UNESCO list. An example
21、 is the Tlemcen wedding ceremony in Algeria. The ceremony begins in the brides parents home, where friends and female relatives help the bride prepare for the ceremony. The bride is first dressed in a golden silk dress. Before leaving the house for the ceremony, her face is wrapped in a golden silk
22、veil (面纱). Later, during the wedding feast,the bride removes her veil, ready to be married. The tradition has passed from one generation to the next,and marks the communitys cultural identity.Some of the cultural items on the list are dying out and in need of protection. An example is A1 Sadua tradi
23、tional form of weaving in the United Arab Emirates. The tradition was once widely practicedby communities of desert Bedouin women. However, as many Bedouins have now moved to cities, Al Saduis mostly practiced by older women whose number is decreasing.UNESCO hopes that by bringing attention to cultu
24、ral traditions such as Al Sadu, they will be more likely to survive. “Cultural traditions are important to fight for.” says Cecile Duvelle of UNESCO. “Themore globalized the world becomes,” she adds, “the more important it is not to lose these traditional roots.”24. Which of the following could NOT
25、be added to the intangible cultural heritage list?A. Flute music from Peru. B. A historic bridge in Paris.C. An Irish poetry festival. D. A traditional Italian diet.25. What can we learn from the passage?A. All of the cultural items on the UNESCO list are not well preserved.B. The traditional weavin
26、g-Al Sadu is still popular in Bedouin culture.C. The main ceremony of the Tlemcen wedding takes place in the brides parents home.D. Typical regional dishes are among the first items on the UNESCO list of intangible heritage.26.Whats the best title for the passage?A.Disappearing Cultural TraditionsB.

28、nge.The study, published in the journalNature,analyzed hurricanes that have struck North America from 1967 to 2018. It found that hurricanes making landfall in the 1960s lost 75 percent of their power in thefirst day after coming ashore, while today a hurricane that strikes land typically decays by
29、about 50 percentin the first day.The studys authors claimed rising ocean temperature is the driving force behind the formation of longer-lived hurricanes. They ran four models that simulate (模拟)a hurricane moving over land. In each,they adjusted the temperature of the ocean water underneath the stor
30、m. The higher the sea surfacetemperature was, the researchers found, the more moisture (水汽a storm carried over land and the longer itlasted. They said if a hurricane is like an engine, the warm ocean water beneath it is like fuel. When oceanwater is particularly warm, as it is in the Caribbean and G

If human-caused climate warming continues, they added, the destructive power ofhurricanessome with 100-plus-mile-pcr-hour winds and heavy rainfall could extend farther inland andespecially affect ill-equipped communities.James Kossin, a climate s
32、cientist at the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), said, “They make a convincing case that the long-lasting hurricane is related to higher ocean temperature,and this can in turn be linked to climate change.”“I would probably support the opinion that this phenomenon (现象)is possib

We still have a long way to go.”27. What does the underlined word “decays” in Paragraph 2 mean?A. Spreads. B.
