28、 Marie Tharp, who was born in Michigan in 1920, produced one of the world's first maps of the ocean floor. As a female, Tharp never thought she could do soil surveying like her father. Women during her time were prevented from working in the scientific field. Jobs for young women were limited in options to: secretary, bookkeeper, nurse, school teacher or librarian.
During World War II, since many of the men were off fighting, there was opportunity for women to fill certain job roles. She earned her Master's degree in Geology in 1944, and another Bachelor's degree in mathematics in 1948. After receiving her degree, she worked as a research assistant (助理) at the Lamont Geological Laboratory in Columbia University. While there, she met Bruce Heezen, who she would work together with for the next 30 years.
Before the 1950s, little was known about the layout of the ocean floor. Tharp and Heezen became part of a research project to map it. However, women at that time were not allowed on boats. So Heezen went out and collected the initial data, which was sent to Tharp back at home. Working with only pens and rulers, she drew the details of the ocean floor using longitude (经度) by latitude degree (纬度). It was a technical process, but Tharp got the task done. The first published map of the North Atlantic ocean was in 1957. It revealed that the ocean floor was not flat, but covered with features like canyons, ridges, and mountains just like on land. In 1977, Tharp completed a full world's ocean map titled The World Ocean Floor.
Marie Tharp is greatly recognized as a pioneer in a field dominated by men. Although more through maps of the ocean floor exist today, the impact of Tharp and her mapping of the ocean floor is still with us. Her work helped bring to life the unknown ocean world, and helped prove important information about our earth's development.
【1】What do we know about women at Tharp's time?
A.They were interested in maps.
B.They couldn't work in science field.
C.They could do the same jobs as men.
D.They had a wide range of job choices.
【2】What mainly made it possible for Tharp to work as a researcher?
A.Men's going to war.
B.Her meeting Heezen.
C.Her father's influence.
D.Her work as a research assistant.
【3】What can be inferred about Tharp's scientific research?
A.It was finished with difficulty.
B.It was done with advanced tools.
C.It was completed by Tharp alone.
D.It was based on former researches.
【4】Which of the following best describes Tharp?
A.Responsible and caring.
B.Adventurous and frank.
C.Determined and friendly
D.Professional and devoted.
【5】Where is this text most likely from?
A.A diary.
B.A novel.
C.A biography.

29、Keeping a bit of the outdoors inside is nothing new, but houseplant collections have become a popular social media trend — which means that more people than ever are discovering the comfort and beauty that caring for plants brings.
【1】 Exposure to greenery, whether you have indoor plants, take walks outside or tend to a garden, has been found to have multiple mental-health benefits, such as lowering stress, decreasing feelings of depression, increasing sociability, restoring focus, improving cognitive performance, improving mood and increasing self-esteem.
“One study showed that patients at a hospital who had plants in their room reported less pain, lower blood pressure, less fatigue and less anxiety than patients without plants in their rooms,” says Jenny Seham, a New York-based psychologist. She explains: “Cortisol, the stress hormone, has been shown to lower with plant interaction, reducing fatigue, irritability (易怒) and blood pressure.”
Research has also shown that having plants and gardening increase productivity and levels of serotonin, the neurotransmitter responsible for lifting our mood. 【2】 And it is also opposed to dwelling on the past or worrying about the future.
Before you fill your space with greenery, consider how you’ll interact with your plants. 【3】 Can you care for them daily?
If you have a small space or aren’t sure how much time you’re willing to invest in “plant parenting.” Start slow. “【4】 It can engage you by its smell or colour, creating a positive mood response with every interaction,” says Seham.
A.For instance, is there enough space for plants in areas where you spend a lot of time?
B.Half the fun of gardening is that you never know exactly what’s going to come up.
C.It’s a feel-good hobby that’s supported by science.
D.While indoor gardening can boost your feelings of wellbeing, help reduce stress and promote relaxation, it’s not, of course, a substitute for a trained mental health professional.
E.The theory is that plant care helps us focus on the present moment and provides a feeling of accomplishment.
F.Just one plant can make a difference.
