Returning to a book you’ve read many times can feel like drinks with an old friend There’s a welcome familiarity — but also sometimes a slight suspicion that time has changed you both and thus the relationship But books don’t change people do And that’s what makes the act of rereading so rich and transformative
The beauty of rereading lies in the idea that our bond with the work is based on our present mental register It’s true the older I get the more I feel time has wings But with reading it’s all about the present It’s about the now and what one contributes to the now because reading is a give and take between author and reader Each has to pull their own weight
There are three books I reread annually The first which I take to reading every spring is Emest Hemningway’s A Moveable Feast Published in 1964 it’s his classic memoir of 1920s Paris The language is almost intoxicating (令陶醉)an aging writer looking back on an ambitious yet simpler time Another is Annie Dillard’s Holy the Firm her poetic 1975 ramble (笔) about everything and nothing The third book is Julio Cortazar’s Save Twilight Selected Poems because poetry And because Cortazar
While I tend to buy a lot of books these three were given to me as gifs which might add to the meaning I attach to them But I imagine that while money is indeed wonderful and necessary rereading an author’s work is the highest currency a reader can pay them The best books are the ones that open further as time passes But remember it’s you that has to grow and read and reread in order to better understand your friends
24 Why does the author like rereading
A It evaluates the writerreader relationship
B It’s a window to a whole new world
C It’s a substitute for drinking with a friend
D It extends the understanding of oneself

Race walking shares many fitness benefits with running research shows while most likely contributing to fewer injuries It does however have its own problem
Race walkers are conditioned athletes The longest track and field event at the Summer Olympics is the 50kilometer race walk which is about five miles longer than the marathon But the sport’s rules require that a race walker’s knees stay straight through most of the leg swing and one foot remain in contact (接触) with the ground at all times It’s this strange form that makes race walking such an attractive activity however says Jaclyn Norberg an assistant professor of exercise science at Salem State University in Salem Mass
Like running race walking is physically demanding she says According to most calculations race walkers moving at a pace of six miles per hour would burn about 800 calories(卡路里) per hour which is approximately twice as many as they would burn walking although fewer than running which would probably burn about 1000 or more calories per hour
However race walking does not pound the body as much as running does Dr Norberg says According to her research runners hit the ground with as much as four times their body weight per step while race walkers who do not leave the ground create only about 14 times their body weight with each step
As a result she says some of the injuries associated with running such as runner’s knee are uncommon among race walkers But the sport’s strange form does place considerable stress on the ankles and hips so people with a history of such injuries might want to be cautious in adopting the sport In fact anyone wishing to try race walking should probably first consult a coach or experienced racer to learn proper technique she says It takes some practice
28 Why are race walkers conditioned athletes
A They must run long distances
B They are qualified for the marathon
C They have to follow special rules
D They are good at swinging their legs

The connection between people and plants has long been the subject of scientific research Recent studies have found positive effects A study conducted in YoungstownOhiofor example discovered that greener areas of the city experienced less crime In anotheremployees were shown to be 15 more productive when their workplaces were decorated with houseplants
The engineers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology(MIT)have taken it a step further changing the actual composition of plants in order to get them to perform diverseeven unusual functions These include plants that have sensors printed onto their leaves to show when they’re short of water and a plant that can detect harmful chemicals in groundwater "We’re thinking about how we can engineer plants to replace functions of the things that we use every day"explained Michael Strano a professor of chemical engineering at MIT
One of his latest projects has been to make plants grow(发光)in experiments using some common vegetables Strano’s team found that they could create a faint light for threeandahalf hours The lightabout onethousandth of the amount needed to read byis just a start The technology Strano said could one day be used to light the rooms or even to turn tree into selfpowered street lamps
in the futurethe team hopes to develop a version of the technology that can be sprayed onto plant leaves in a oneoff treatment that would last the plant’s lifetime The engineers are also trying to develop an on and off"switch"where the glow would fade when exposed to daylight
Lighting accounts for about 7 of the total electricity consumed in the US Since lighting is often far removed from the power source(电源)—such as the distance from a power plant to street lamps on a remote highwaya lot of energy is lost during transmission(传输)
Glowing plants could reduce this distance and therefore help save energy
32 What is the first paragraph mainly about
A A new study of different plants
B A big fall in crime rates
C Employees from various workplaces
D Benefits from green plants
分值2分
答案D
33 What is the function of the sensors printed on plant leaves by MIT engineer
A To detect plants’ lack of water
B To change compositions of plants
C To make the life of plants longer
D To test chemicals in plants

34 What can we expect of the glowing plants in the future

35 Which of the following can be the best title for the text

A Few Tips for SelfAcceptance
We all want it to accept and love ourselves But at times it seems too difficult and too far out of reach 36 Here’s a handful of ways that will set you in the right direction
● 37 Do not follow the people who make you feel notgoodenough Why do you follow them Are you hoping that eventually you will feel empowered because your life is better than theirs Know that your life is your own you are the only you in this world
●Forgive yourself for mistakes that you have made We are often ashamed of our shortcomings our mistakes and our failures 38 You will make mistakes time and time again Rather than getting caught up in how you could have done better why not offer yourself a compassionate (情心) response "That didn’t go as planned But I tried my best"
●Recognize all of your strengths Write them down in a journal Begin to train your brain to look at strength before weakness List all of your accomplishments and achievements You have a job earned your degree and you got out of bed today 39
●Now that you’ve listed your strengths list your imperfections Turn the page in your journal Put into words why you feel unworthy why you don’t feel good enough Now read these words back to yourself 40 Turn to a page in your journal to your list of strengths and achievements See how awesome you are
A Feeling upset again
