A
A bunch of brilliant yellow flowers was dedicated to my mother.She was amazed at its shape and something strange but eventually lost passion. It didn’t matter a lot that the stems felt sticky or that both my parents cursed(诅咒) the presence of these flowers in the lawn. I thought they were gorgeous!
And there were a ocean of them! We spent hours picking the flowers and then popping the blossoms off with a snap of our fingers. But the supply of dandelions (蒲公英) never ran out. My father or brothers would cut off all the heads with the lawnmower (割草机) at least once a week, but that didn't stop these hardy wonders.
And for those flowers that escaped the honor of being hand-delivered to my mother or the miserable destiny to be killed by the lawnmower, there was another level of existence. The soft roundness of a dandelion gone to seed caused endless laughter of delight as we unconsciously(无意识地) spread this flower across the yard.
As I worked in my garden last week, pulling unwanted weeds(野草)out of the space that would become a haven(避风港) for tomatoes, corn, peas and sunflowers, I again marveled at the flower that some call a weed.
And I thought, I hope I had the staying power of a dandelion. If only I could stretch my roots so deep and straight that something tugging on my stem couldn’t separate me completely from the source that feeds me life. If only I could come back to face the world with a bright, sunshiny face after someone has run me over with a lawnmower or worse, purposely attacked me in an attempt to destroy me. If only I could spread love and encouragement as freely and fully as this flower spreads seeds of itself.
The lawns at my parents' home are now beautiful green blankets. The only patches of color come from well-placed, well-controlled flowerbeds. Chemicals have managed to kill what human interference couldn’t. I hope you and I can be different. I hope that we can stretch our roots deep enough that the strongest poison can't reach our souls. I hope that we can overcome the poisons of anger, fear, hate, criticism and competitiveness.

A. supplies of seeds B. beautiful wonders

B
When in space, astronauts typically eat dehydrated (脱水),nutrient-rich food, but when it comes to longer space missions, that can become a problem as they'll eventually lack nutrients from fresh vegetables. However, Ying Diao, a chemical and biomolecular engineering professor will be researching ways astronauts can grow their own fresh vegetables more efficiently during space missions.
Diao's goal for this research is to develop wearable sensors for plants so that their health and stress levels are detected autonomously, with no need for humans to do the testing. Then, a “smart" plant chamber will be developed that can identify the best conditions for a plant to grow in to reduce its stress. Diao also wants to develop another sensor that will continuously monitor a plant9s growth over its lifetime. “We're helping the astronauts to be more healthy during space missions, by improving the health of the plants they grow,”Diao said. “So the bigger impact could also be that it helps future human colonization on Mars or on other possible habitats.”
Although the ultimate goal for this project and research is to help people in space, it could also be used back on Earth in addressing climate change.
“During climate change, a plant experiences a lot of stress, but we need a plant to be more productive without increasing the footprint of the agriculture land to feed the growing population of our planet," Diao said. "To address this conflict, we could potentially help decipher (破译)how the climate change and the microenvironments are impacting the plant stress and then we are better equipped to help plants adapt to a changing environment."
“Most of the technology in my field is developed for human health but we've been ignoring plants for too long,” Diao said. “T think ifs a new frontier that I want to go into and it is just part of a smart agriculture movement.,”
24.What troubles astronauts with longer missions?
A.The way to grow fresh vegetables.
B.A shortage of nutrients from fresh vegetables.
C.A decrease in dehydrated, nutrient-rich food.
D.The balance between work and growing vegetables.
25.What is the purpose of Diao's project?
A.To find possible habitats form people.
B.To deal with climate change on earth.
C.To decrease the footprint of agriculture.
D. To help people to stay healthy in space.
26.What is the new frontier for Diao?
A.Technology for plants
B.Sensors for space use.
C. A smart agriculture movement.
D. Research into human health.
C
Loneliness is a widespread problem with complex roots.
There has been a quiet pandemic developing while most people’s attention has been on covid-19. The lockdown has worsened a problem that has been spreading in many developed nations for decades: loneliness.
It is a complex issue which covers not only social lives, but the way you work and the way you vote. Noreena Hertz, an academic, deals with the subject in an important new book, “The Lonely Century”.
Loneliness increases the risk of heart disease, strokes and dementia(痴呆症). Those who say they are lonely are likelier to be depressed five years later. In addition, lonely people can become more hostile towards others and more attracted to extremist politics.
Part of the problem stems from contemporary employment. Globally, two in five office workers feel lonely at work. This rises to three in five in Britain. Gig-economy(零工经济)jobs can leave people with insecure incomes and without the companionship of colleagues. The pandemic has made it more difficult to make, and maintain, friendships, particularly for new employees.
Ms. Hertz points her finger at other recent developments. One of them is social media. The internet has led to much cyber-bullying (although it has also been a source of companionship during the lockdown). And people glued to their smartphones spend less time interacting socially.
Some changes in behavior are caused by individual choice. Before the pandemic no one was stopping people going to church or taking part in sports. They simply preferred to do other things. American fathers spend three times as much time with their children as they did in the 1960s. That is surely a welcome development.
So recreating a communal society may be difficult. When the pandemic ends, people may enjoy the chance to be with their neighbors and colleagues for a while. But the trend is clear. Technology means that people can get their entertainment at home, and work there, too. It is convenient but it also leads to loneliness.
27. What does the underlined phrase “a quiet pandemic” refer to in the second paragraph?
A. Covid-19. B. Loneliness.
C. The lockdown. D. A complex issue.
28. Why is the new book mentioned in Paragraph 3?
A. To show the seriousness of loneliness. B. To advertise a new book.
C. To give an example of loneliness. D. To introduce what to be discussed.
29. Which of the following is NOT one of the reasons for the trend of loneliness?
A. Contemporary employment. B. Social media.
C. Individual choice. D. Extremist politics.
30. Which of the following is the best title for the text?
A. Loneliness: Good or Not? B. A Common Disease
C. Loneliness: A Clear Trend D. Pandemic and Loneliness
