21、All living things need energy to move and grow. Energy can come in many different forms. 【1】 While energy cannot be created nor destroyed, it can be converted (转换) between different forms.
Where do plants get their energy? They get their energy from the sun. Plants absorb sunlight with their leaves. 【2】 This chemical process is called photosynthesis. Photosynthesis means, “making out of light.” The energy from the sun, light energy, is converted into chemical energy through photosynthesis.
Plants are called producers because they produce their own food. Producers form the base of every food chain in an ecosystem. Plants are eaten by animals, which are eaten by larger animals. For example, a plant takes in energy from the sun and turns it into plant food. 【3】 Then, a human eats the rabbit. The energy the human gets from the food was originally energy from the sun!
The food humans eat provides us with energy. When we chew and digest food, a chemical reaction takes place. 【4】 We require energy from food for basic functions, like moving and breathing. Energy from food also helps our body repair itself and stay warm.
【5】 Whole foods (天然食品), like kale, contain lots of important nutrients, such as calcium (钙) and potassium (钾). Sugary foods, like candy, do not contain as many nutrients. Whole foods can provide us with enough energy over long periods of time. So are you more energized throughout the day?
A．The energy produced from this reaction fuels our bodies.
B．Eater, that plant might be eaten by a rabbit, giving the rabbit energy.
C．Notice how you feel when you eat whole foods like vegetables and fruits.
D．Through this process, energy from the sun is moved from one living thing to another.
E．They use the sun’s energy to change water and carbon dioxide into plant food and oxygen.
F．The amount of energy we get from food depends on which nutrients are in the food we eat.
G．For example, light energy, heat energy, and chemical energy are all different forms of energy.
22、It’s important to plan ahead, but you have to live with the fact that you just can’t plan for everything. Life takes unexpected twists and turns(曲折)and throws surprises your way. 【1】. Luckily, here are some advice on how to get through.
Reflect.
【2】. Reflect both on what’s hard and on what’s still good. Maybe that’s in a diary or through a conversation with a friend. It doesn’t matter how you reflect, just that you find time to pause in a crisis.
【3】.
There’s no right way to get through a difficult time. Some people get super productive. Others, not so much. Thus, it’s important to let go of the pressure of others’ expectations and ignore messages like what you should do.
Find your thing for the day.
Once you’ve stopped focusing on what you should do, take time to recharge by doing good, meaningful, even productive things. Maybe for you it’s baking a pie or organizing a closet.【4】.
Don’t try to make sense of things too soon.
It can be tempting to rush through an uncertain situation and try to make it seem certain—to leap ahead to what might be next or try to find reasons for things. 【5】. Things are just hard. So don’t try to make sense of things too soon. That leaves room for new possibilities.
A．Don’t “should” on yourself
B．Sometimes there isn’t a reason
C．Move past shame
D．Allow yourself to get in touch with how you’re feeling
E．And you feel lost about how to handle those uncertainties
F．You have to write a whole diary entry
G．Just follow your heart and do it for the day
23、Directions: Read the following passage. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need.
Overnight, eating fried chicken in the People’s Square is OUT; instead, people started to drink HEEKCAA and eat Bao Master. This year, the queues in front of the doors of “Wanghong delicacies” were so dense that a cup of tea has been hyped to over 80 Yuan by scalpers (黄牛) and local bloggers even customized a one-day tour to eat in Shanghai.
To a great extent, Wanghong phenomenon depends on merchants’ business strategy. 【1】. Business also works on publicity. Before HEEKCAA’s arrival in Shanghai, it has advertised through microblog, local life service and other self-media, which has generated a certain amount of heat among the public. Once people make the purchase, the “sense of accomplishment” will urge some of them to show off at their Wechat moments, which is good for brand image. Also, when a product is quickly recognized by consumers, capitals will come in great numbers. The boost of capitals undoubtedly helps the subsequent publicity of the brand.
【2】. In the Internet era, the spread of information is so fast that it doesn’t matter whether the tea tastes good or bad; it’s just a matter of whether you ever drink it. There is a word for this behavior — “fomo”, which means fear of missing out. Oxford University professor said this is not new. As social animals, humans have a strong desire to be part of a group, to be accepted, recognized, valued and remembered. A little baby cries for a hug and a child makes small trouble to get noticed. These behaviors are, in the eyes of sociologists, anxious for existence. It’s just that social media today that make it easier for people to perceive other people’s lives, and have a sense of loss not to join them when they know what others are doing.
10-20 Yuan is the exchange value of milk tea, but it’s the symbol value of the goods that encourages people to “pull the grass”. Just like the lipstick, mailbox and graffiti wall that have been on the list of Wanghong, people want to use relatively controllable spending to gain satisfaction from a moments’ thumb up. 【3】.
With the development of society, consumers are not just buying a product but its brand culture and quality of life, so the appearance of light consuming is inevitable. However, “Wanghong economy” is always short-lived because this consumer group is changeable in affection. Consumers who come by “physical attractiveness” will quickly vanish if there is no implicit value or connotation to support. 【4】. Besides, consumers should make rational consumption instead of just following the trend.
A. Still, Wanghong delicacies (佳肴) hold strong appeal to young consumers as long as they are of high quality and good tastes.
B. After they buy the product and send a picture to the moments, perhaps their “existential anxiety” will be cured.
C. Merchants have to figure out the true value and selling point of their products.
D. It is just because people are too idle and “Wanghong delicacies” are too attractive.
E. Wanghong phenomenon also rests with customers’ mindset and behaviour.
F. It is obvious that queuing is a kind of hunger marketing strategy.
24、Larry Paris and Joe Huber were good friends. Both of them lived on their family farms in Starlight, Indiana. When they were young, they would throw parties and get into troubles around their small town. They also passed the time playing basketball in the Hubers' backyard with their friends. One day, they found basketball wasn't exciting enough. So they turned the yard into a boxing ring. But week after week one kid kept winning. His name was Crum Lynch.
Back in the 1950s and 60s. WAVE in Louisville, Kentucky produced a TV series called Tomorrow's Champions, where future boxing stars could get their start. The show was aired on Saturday nights and it was open to amateur boxers from all over the US. One day, the Huber brothers felt they had a star in Crum Lynch. Encouraged by his success in Starlight, Crum also saw the promise of a professional career lay ahead. So they got into a truck and headed for Kentucky.
When they arrived at the TV station and found out that Crum was going to compete with a skinny 14 year-old boy named Cassius Clay, the group assumed Crum had the match in the bag. But they planned not to take him out until the third round because they wanted to get more enjoyment and air time on the TV show.
Both fighters entered the ring on time. In Crum's corner, Larry Paris and Joe Huber stood around their fighter's three-legged chair. In the other corner, Crum's teenage opponent kept pacing back and forth. When the announcer said Crum's name, there were just a handful of claps. But when the name of that scrawny teenager was announced, the place erupted.
Of course, the match didn't go as planned. While Crum got defeated and left the building with his face looking like a bag of golf balls, Clay would go on to change his name to Muhammad Ali and become the greatest athlete of the boxing world.
