22、If you’re looking for some books to read, the following may be your best choices.
Team Human by Douglas Rushkoff
Douglas Rushkoff believes we are essentially social creatures, and that we achieve our greatest goals when we work together, not as individuals. However, he says today’s society is threatened by many elements that weaken our ability to connect. He calls on us to take action.
Climate-A New Story by Charles Eisenstein
With an entire chapter stating climate change, Charles Eisenstein advocates expanding our limited focus on carbon emissions to see the broader picture beyond our short-sighted and incomplete approach. He thinks rivers, forests and the creatures of nature are valuable in their own right, not simply for preventing a rise in temperature.
Who Can You Trust? by Rachel Botsman
In this book, Rachel Botsman reveals that we are at the point of one of the biggest social transformations in human history. She says we might have lost faith in many other people, but millions of people exchange digital currencies or find themselves trusting a robot. She says if we are to benefit from this shift, we must understand the mechanics of how trust is built, managed, lost and repaired in the digital age.
The Happiness Fantasy by Carl Cederstrom
Carl Cederstrom traces our present-day conception of happiness. He argues that happiness is now defined by a desire to experience physical pleasure. He says, however, there is a vision of the good life which promotes deeper engagement with the world. Guided by this more reasonable worldview, we will present ourselves with a new image.

23、Art is everywhere. Any public space has been carefully designed by an artistic mind to be both functional and beautiful. Why, then, is art still so widely considered to be "the easy subject" at school, insignificant to wider society, a waste of time and effort?
Art can connect culture with commercial products in a way that not many other things can; art generates money and holds significant emotional and cultural value within communities. When people attend a concert, they are paying for music, sure, maybe even hotel rooms, meals, and transport, but they also gain an incredible experience, a unique atmosphere and a memory that will go through the rest of their lives. People don't just want material things anymore, they want to experience life---the arts are a perfect cross over between culture and commerce.
Furthermore, the arts can bring communities together, reducing loneliness and making people feel safer. Social bonds are created among individuals when they share their arts experiences through reflection and discussion, and their expression of common values through artworks in honour of events significant to a nation's experience.
The arts clearly have a pretty positive impact on physical and psychological health. It is found that people who frequent cultural places or participate in artistic events are more likely to gain good health compared to those who do not; more engagement with the arts is linked to a higher level of people’s wellbeing. The Royal Society of Public Health discovered that music and art, when used in hospitals, help to improve the conditions of patients by reducing stress, anxiety and blood pressure.
Children who are involved with the arts make greater achievements in their education: those engaged with drama have greater literary ability while others taking part in musical practice exhibit greater skills in math and languages. Kids with preference for the arts have a greater chance of finding employment in the future. Participating in the arts is essential for child development; encouraging children to express themselves in constructive ways could help to form healthy emotional responses in later life.
Vital to human life, art is celebrated and used by nations across the world for various purposes. Life without art would be boring and dead still, for art is a part of what makes us human.
【1】Art products differ from most other commercial products because_____ .
A．most people purchase them for collection
B．they are more expensive and less accessible

【2】What can we learn about people who are involved in artistic activities?
A．They enjoy better living conditions.
B．They like to compare themselves with others.
C．They are particularly good at both music and art.
D．They tend to be healthier physically and mentally.
【3】How does kids' engagement with the arts benefit them?
A．It promotes their academic performance and emotional growth.
B．It gives them more confidence in exhibiting their learning skills.
C．It inspires their creativity in designing their future career.
D．It helps to make responsible people out of them.
【4】What is the best title for this passage?
A．How Art Cures Our Hearts
B．Art: A Blessing to Humankind
C．How Art Benefits Communities
D．Art: A Bridge Between Cultures
24、 Elephant, horse and cow wastes could be endless sources for a key element needed to make paper. It is good news for some nations where trees are scarce while animal wastes come in especially handy.
The idea for the unusual use of elephant and cow wastes first came to mind when researcher Dr Alexander Bismarck noticed something strange about goat wastes while vacationing in Greece. He observed some goats eating summer-dry grass and came to an interesting conclusion about what they digest.
Dr Bismarck said： “I realized what comes out in the end is partially digested plant matter so there must be cellulose （纤维素）there". Animals eat dry grass containing cellulose, chew it and digest it in their stomach and then produce wastes. Up to 40 percent of those wastes are cellulose, which is easily accessible. Therefore, making paper from the partially digested material would take much less energy than using raw wood. Additionally, it would require fewer chemical treatments.
This supply of raw material is plenty： parks in Africa that are home to hundreds of elephants produce tons of wastes every day, and enormous cattle farms in the US and Europe produce mountains of wastes.
In order to make paper, the material must be processed with a special method. But it requires little because there is no need to break it down into small parts for use in paper, in contrast to conventional methods which need a lot of energy to break down wood.
Using wastes, we can reduce the number of steps needed in papermaking, simply because the animal already chewed the plant and attacked it with acid in their stomachs. You inexpensively produce a paper staff that has the same or even better properties than that from wood, with lower energy and chemical consumption.
【1】What is mainly talked about in paragraph 2?
A.The observation of goat wastes. B.The usage of animal wastes.
C.The origin of the unusual idea. D.The vacation spent in Greece.
【2】Animal wastes can be used to make paper mainly because ________.
A.they will never run out B.they are easy to access
C.they are partly digested D.they contain much cellulose
【3】What is the advantage of making paper from animal wastes?
A.It is more profitable. B.It is energy-saving.
C.It needs less material. D.It fits all parts of the world.
【4】What is the probable explanation of the underlined word “attack"?
A.Treat. B.Mix.
C.Clean. D.Protect.
