21、 As temperatures drop, leaves begin to turn for us to enjoy glorious autumnal colors. When temperatures rise again in spring, the growing season for trees starts again. Throughout the warmer months, trees take carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and store it, releasing oxygen as a byproduct. This is the process of photosynthesis (光合作用). The more photosynthesis, the more carbon is locked away.
Carbon dioxide is a major driver of climate change, so the more is taken out of the atmosphere by plants, the better. With the warmer climate leading to a longer growing season, some researchers have suggested more carbon dioxide would be absorbed by trees and other plants than in previous times. But a new study has turned this theory on its head.
The researchers, led by Deborah Zani at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology, studied the degree to which the timing of colour changes in autumn tree leaves was determined by the growth of the plant in spring and summer.
Traditionally, temperature and day length were accepted as the main factor determining when leaves changed colour and fell, leading some scientists to assume that warming temperatures would delay this process until later in the season. However, in a new study about deciduous (落叶的)European tree species, researchers recorded how much carbon each tree absorbed per season and how that finally affected when the leaves fell. They found that as the rate of photosynthesis increased, leaves changed colour and fell earlier in the year.
In a world with increasing levels of carbon in the atmosphere, these new findings imply that warmer weather and longer growing seasons will not allow deciduous trees to take in more carbon dioxide. The study's predictive model suggests that by 2100, when tree growing seasons are expected to be between 22 and 34 days longer, leaves will fall from trees between three and six days earlier than they do now.

22、Scientists know quite a lot about stars. After centuries of pointing telescopes at the night sky, astronomers and amateurs alike can figure out key traits of any star, such as its mass or its composition.
To calculate a star’s mass, just look at the time it takes to orbit a companion star. Then do a bit of calculation. To determine what it’s made of, look to the spectrum of light the star sends out. But one question scientists haven’t quite cracked yet is how to calculate the exact time of a star.
“The sun is the only star we know the age of,” says astronomer David Soderblom. He works at the Space Telescope Science Institute in Baltimore, Md. We use what we know about it and how it compares to others, he says, to figure out the age of other stars.
Even well-studied stars surprise scientists every now and then. In 2019, the red supergiant Betelgeuse became gradually dark. At the time, astronomers weren’t sure if this star was just going through a phase. The alternative was more exciting: It might be ready to explode as a supernova. (Turns out it was just a phase.) The sun also shook things up when scientists noticed that it wasn’t behaving like other middle-aged stars. It’s not as magnetically active as other stars of its age and mass. That suggests astronomers still might not fully understand the timeline of middle age.
Using physics and indirect measurements, scientists can make a rough estimate of a star’s age. Some methods, it turns out, work better for different types of stars.
Why do we even care? Galaxies are huge collections of stars of different ages. Star ages might help us figure out how such galaxies grow and evolve or how planets within them form. Knowing star ages might even assist in the search for life in other solar systems.
【1】What may scientists want to research about stars most now?
A．Their companions.
B．Their types.
C．Their ages.
D．Their characteristics.
【2】What does the underlined word “cracked” in Paragraph 2 probably mean?
A．Discussed.
B．Described.
C．Touched.
D．Solved.
【3】Why is the example in 2019 mentioned?
A．To show scientists still have puzzles about stars.
B．To prove scientists have studied stars to the full.
C．To provide facts for scientists’ researches on stars.
D．To warn scientists to notice some surprising stars.
【4】What does the author want to tell us in the last paragraph?
A．The reasons for caring about the space.
B．The significance of researching star ages.
C．The ways of measuring a star’s age.
D．The benefits of figuring out solar systems.
23、When you are anxious and stressed, you could add an “emotional workout” to your self-care regimen (养生法). “It’s like working out prevents high blood pressure and heart disease. 【1】”
Says Emily Anhalt, a clinical psychologist. Here are some expert-backed exercise to help you begin.
Annoyed with a loved one? Practice the “self-reflection push-up.”
Feeling hurt, annoyed or angry with someone else’s behavior might reflect something. 【2】 Anhalt suggests practicing an exercise she calls the “self-reflection push-up.” This push-up uses the “3 Js, which stand for join, jealous (嫉妒) and judge” to guide you. Ask yourself if the other person’s behavior is something you also do (join), are envious of (jealous) or criticize (judge). For instance, if you’re annoyed with your friend for being selfish, you might realize that you’ve behaved the same way.
【3】 Befriend tough emotions.
As humans, we’re born to avoid pain. When uncomfortable emotions arise, we may try to distract (分散) ourselves from feeling bad. We may wander through social media or on Netflix. These strategies are called “defenses”. However, we can’t merely rely on defenses. 【4】
When upset emotions arise, try to befriend your feelings. Start by naming your emotions, a technique psychologists call “affect labeling.” The goal isn’t to change the emotion, but to bring awareness to how it feels in the moment. 【5】 By understanding them, we can uncover the cause of suffering.
A．Feeling down?
B．Unsatisfied with a bad result?
C．That’s what we dislike about ourselves.
D．Emotional fitness can benefit stress management.
E．Therefore, we can make use of them to cheer us up.
F．To conclude, symptoms like anxiety are the body’s alarm system.
G．Without feeling our emotions, our ability to process them will be influenced.
24、 Most 15-year-olds are worrying about their math homework and trying to fit in with other kids their age. But Henry Patterson is busy running a successful online business instead.
Patterson, a teenager from Bedfordshire, a county in the East of England, started a business called Not Before Tea when he was just nine. He began by selling sweets, but soon turned to household products like wash bags and soft toys. The items he sells feature characters from a book he wrote called The Adventures of Sherb and Pip.
Patterson’s early school years were difficult, as he saw the world differently. He was rarely invited to parties or play dates(约会). He also had a stammer(口吃), which made him feel even more lonely.
But these things didn’t hold him back. To cheer himself up, Patterson gradually lost himself in designing different animals and writing interesting stories about them. His characters started to become popular. He tried very hard to express himself clearly and talk to bigger audiences. His business has earned him 65,000 pounds (566,221 yuan) and he has spoken at the National
Retail Business Awards for Teenagers.
On top of this, he does his best to keep his schoolwork as a priority(优先项). He takes his homework with him to events and does it on the train or after a presentation.
Two years ago, he wrote a book called Young and Mighty. It describes his search for success and happiness. “The real point of the book is to help people my age think about how to make their way in the world,” he wrote.
【1】What is Patterson’s business?
A.Helping teens with their homework. B.Selling household products.
