21、 Virtual reality isn’t just for video games anymore. The technology is changing industries that many people had never thought it would, such as dairy farming.
Russian dairy farmers gave cows VR goggles (眼镜) with hope that they would be happier and make better milk. A farm just outside of Moscow is testing VR glasses for its cows, it says, in an effort to increase the quantity and quality of the milk produced.
That’s according to a news release published Monday from the Ministry of Agriculture of the Moscow region. It came accompanied by photos of a cow trying out its fancy new goggles. The ministry explains it like this:Studies have shown that cows, environmental conditions can impact the milk produced, specifically improving its quality or increasing its quantity. So, a team of developers, with the help of vets and consultants for dairy production, made some oversized VR glasses for cows. They adapted the human versions to account for cows’ different head shapes and eyesight, the news release says. And then voila! Cow VR glasses. And what were these cows experiencing with their new VR glasses? A wild, expansive field beneath the summer sun. A cow’s (virtual) paradise (天堂).
So far, it’s unclear if the glasses have helped milk production-further study will be needed for that. But a first test did reveal a decrease in anxiety and an increase in the emotional mood of the herd, the release said. To be fair, if we were transported to a vast field in the summertime, our anxiety and emotional mood would be better, too. Russian dairy farmers aren’t the only ones going the extra mile to keep their cows happy and improve product, though. Some Wagyu farmers set mood lighting, among other tricks, to keep their cows calm and producing the best beef possible. Others play them music, which one Missouri farmer says leads to better milk.
【1】Why were VR glasses used in the farm?
A．To avoid cows’ fighting.
B．To cure the cows’ diseases.
C．To test the cows’ eyesight.
D．To get more and better milk.
【2】What did the cows see wearing the VR glasses?
A．Exciting movies.
B．Video games.
C．A vast field in the sun.
D．More cows in the distance.
【3】Which of the following tricks is mentioned in the last paragraph?
A．Playing beautiful music.
B．Telling animal stories.
C．Choosing better meal time.
D．Photos of many cows.
【4】In which section of a newspaper may this text appear?
A．Nature.
B．Science.
C．Education.
D．Entertainment.
22、Setting boundaries (界限) with people, especially those you care about, can be difficult. You may feel guilty about doing so, but there’s no need to. You won’t be able to care for others if you can’t care for yourself. 【1】
Offer alternatives (选择) to what they want.
You may have a friend who wants to come over and stay all day. Being a good friend doesn’t mean doing everything they want you to do. You have every right to decide what you feel comfortable with. 【2】 However, you can offer alternatives. You can say, “It’s OK to come over, but only one hour is available.”
Tell your friend you’ll help, but you expect help, too.
You may find that you are always asked for help but never receive any in return. 【3】 For example, if your friend always asks for a lift, you could say, “I don’t mind taking you places, but I’ll need some gas money if this is going to continue.”
【4】
Let them know you’ll be there for them with conditions. Some “friends” want to use up all you’ve got, but never offer anything in return. 【5】 These are “friends” you don’t need, and you’ll need to let them know now. Offer a warning about boundary violations to let your friend know when they occur. You might say, “Hey, you failed to keep an appointment as arranged and that wasn’t cool.”
A．Give a warning.
B．Do some helpful acts.
C．You don’t have to cut them off completely.
D．They may borrow things from you but refuse to return the favor.
E．Setting up boundaries gives you a chance to practice this self-care.
F．They may constantly borrow things from you but refuse to return the favor.
G．Let your friends know that you expect the same amount of help that you give.
23、“I’m not a reader.” It’s a common reply that Julia Torres, a teacher-librarian in Denver Public School, has heard throughout her 16-year career, She’s seen students tear up books, throw them away or check them out only to immediately return them all because they didn’t have confidence in their ability to read.
As a librarian, Torres feels strongly that libraries should be spaces of liberation, places where students can develop a love of reading at any stage. Reading is a skill that everyone can grow to love, but too many negative experiences during a child's literacy （读写能力）education can result in boredom, lack of interest or even anger. When a student has a poor experience like being shamed for their reading choices, they can begin to associate reading with painful feelings of insecurity, shame and stress.
To prevent reading disorder （阅读障碍）practices, as Torres notes, librarians first can build an inclusive （内容丰富的）library where classified collections can make it easier for students to find out the books they want and also help identify gaps in the collections. Reevaluating librarians, role is necessary, which allows students to take control of the library and have a say in what’s purchased for the collection, directly exciting students’ reading interest. Instead of hosting traditional book fairs where students have to pay for books, it is better to open up a True Book Fair, where students are invited to choose books intentionally to their interests without any costs. Librarians are recommended to read what students are reading. Another two important approaches to preventing reading disorder are to take a look at the library policies and redefine what counts as reading. It is necessary to get rid of fines, checkout limits, security gates, and punishment policies. Plus, students are encouraged to listen to audiobooks or read picture books. Find a way to teach important skills like comprehension or critical thinking with the texts that excite and interest students.
【1】What can be inferred from the underlined sentence “I’m not a reader”?
A．Some students have no ability to read.
B．Some students show little interest in reading.
C．Some students don't borrow books from the library.
D．Some students fail to read beyond the lines.
【2】What is directly linked with exciting students’ reading interests?
A．Getting rid of library rules.
B．Voicing their own choices.
C．Librarians’ recommendation.
D．Reducing charges caused by reading.
【3】What is the author’s purpose of writing the text?
A．To do a research on reading disorder.
B．To analyze why reading disorder forms. .
C．Tb offer librarians suggestions on book choice.
D．To draw attention to reading disorder prevention.
24、Students were eating lunch when a fire broke out at Marysville School in Southeast Portland in 2016. The incident left a big mark on students, teachers and parents as they watched the school buried in flames. All the 460 students as well as the 50 staff were left unharmed but after school was destroyed, they had to move to another building in Portland.
Lana Penley, who had started her second year as a principal for Marysville, said everyone needed relief (缓解痛苦) from the accident. “We were already a school that struggled, and then adding the fire on top of it, we really thought we needed to find a social and emotional curriculum (课程) that connects to the heart to overcome our trauma (创伤),” Penley said.
It was after the school opened its doors again that Penley and her staff found a solution in the MindUP program, founded by the actress Goldie Hawn and the Hawn Foundation. MindUP helps kids who are suffering from a high level of stress develop skills they need to flourish (健康成长) in a complicated (复杂的) world. Penley used the program as a way to alleviate trauma from the fires, as well as support many of her students who live in poverty.
The program’s main focus is using neuroscience, mindful awareness and positive psychology as a channel (途径) for social-emotional learning. Penley and her staff noticed that the program helped lift the spirits of her students and after their first year with the program, they began to think about how they could bring this to the overall health of the school.
At the beginning of the day, teachers led students in a couple of breathing exercise in order to help them focus on staying present. Teachers greeted kids at the door, played soft music, and turned the lights down to create a relaxing environment. Students then discussed practices the school was working on together, such as mindfulness. Mindfulness had created the atmosphere of the entire school and students had used the concept as a way to really listen to each other.
Even teachers benefited from the program. Teachers got a “brain break” before staff meetings so they could recharge and focus on the task ahead. MindUP had made all the people in the school become positive. “Our teachers are happier, which is really important, and we have a ton of people applying to our school now because they’re interested in mindfulness,” Penley said.
MindUP is based on research. In a study looking at the positive benefits of the curriculum, Kimberly Schonert-Reichl, a professor from University of British Columbia, asked fourth and fifth graders about their experience. 82% of children said they had a more positive outlook, 81% developed ways to increase their happiness, and 58% of the kids expressed a desire to help their classmates more frequently.
“It really is a shift in the heart,” Penley said. “It’s a way of being and it’s going to change the feel of the school.”
【1】What was the problem facing the school after the fire according to Lana Penley?
A．It was in great need of money to build a new school.
B．Injured students and teachers couldn’t be well treated.
C．The school couldn’t teach kids to deal with emergencies.
D．Students and teachers suffered and lacked emotional support.
【2】The underlined world “alleviate” in Paragraph 3 can best be replaced by “________”.
A．get over
B．get up
C．get down
D．get on
【3】What can we learn from the passage?
A．Some parents were visiting the school when the fire started.
B．The school was in very good condition before the fire started.
C．Lana Penley was one of the founders of the MindUP program.
