life.The sprint legend and new world 100m champion spoke to usabout her evergreen career and the legacy she wishes to leave for young athletes.Fraser comes from a difficult background.She grew up in Waterhouse,a neighborhood in Kingston that wasmarked by poverty and violence.She lived in a wooden shack(棚屋)with just enough room for a double bed andhad to have meals with family members in a shared yard,squatting on a turned-over paint bucket.Sport is one of the few ways to escape this misery.All children in Jamaica run races even in kindergarten;there is no other country with a similar

farm products that use microbes(微生物)and seaweed to grow crops.The move comes at a time when fertilizer prices are very high and increasingattention is being paid to how food is produced around the world.Microbes,including fungi(真菌)and viruses,have been available for years as treatments to protect plantsfrom insects and disease,with mixed outcomes,but developers are increasingly using them as natural ways tosupport crops while keeping up crop production levels.The new microbial fertilizers are sometimes called biostimulants.Such products could help farmers use lessnitrogen,a fertilizer that can pollute waterways and create a gas that has environmental effects.One product from the startup Pivot Bio has microbes that take in sugar from the roots of corn,wheat,orsorghum plants,producing an enzyme that changes nitrogen to a crop nutrient.The company says that farmers havealready used it on more than 400,000 hectares and it also raised$430 million last year from investors.The$3billion biostimulants industry is to grow by 12 to 15 percent each year over the next five years.Microbial fertilizers are largely unregulated,with few studies on how effective they are at developing crops.Besides,not everyone is convinced that biostimulants work.For example,University of Minnesota soil scientistDaniel Kaiser has tested Pivots PROVEN product over the past two seasons.He used it on six areas with reducednitrogen fertilizer treatments,but only one area showed an improved yield.Currently,only a small number of American states require companies to supply data on the effectiveness ofmicrobial fertilizers.And the US Environmental Protection Agency has only issued draft guidance for publicreview.28.According to technology companies,the new microbial fertilizers are _.A.nutrient and popularB.expensive and usefulC.effective and regulatedD.economical and eco-friendly29.What can we learn about the biostimulants in paragraph 5?A.Not all biostimulants

biostimulants in developing crops.30.Whats the authors attitude towards Microbial fertilizers?A.Intolerant.B.Conservative.C.Objective.D.Supportive.31.Whats the purpose of writing this passage?A.To emphasize the effectiveness of using microbes.B.To advocate companies developing farm products.C.To educate farmers in using microbes to grow crops.D.To introduce a new fertilizer used in the agriculture.DFive years ago,Meredith Arthur,a 45-year-old San Francisco resident,arrived at a neurologist appointment.She spoke a mile a minute,explaining why she thought it might hold clues to her neck pain,frequent dizziness andheadaches.“I was presenting my inexpert case to an expert,who stopped me and said,I know whats wrong.Youhave generalized anxiety disorder.”Arthur is one of the 40 million American adults who experience an anxiety disorderthe most common formof mental illnessevery year.Its major factor is the uncertainty about situations in daily life.“I describe anxiety as a future-oriented emotional response to a perceived threat,”says Joel Minden,PhD,aclinical psychologist.“We anticipate that something bad will happen.Maybe we have evidence.Maybe we dont.But we have a belief that something catastrophic might occur.”Almost immediately,Minden says,your sympathetic nervous system kicks into high gear.This leads to therelease of adrenaline and cortisol,two of the crucial hormones(荷尔蒙)that drive your bodys fight-freeze-flightresponse and cause anxietys physical symptoms.Your heart races,your blood pressure rises,your pupils dilate,you get short of breath.Meanwhile,cortisol curbs functions that your brain considers non-essential:It affects immune systemresponses and suppresses(抑制)the digestive system,the reproductive system,and growth processes.This washelpful for our ancestors trying to outrun tigers but is not so much when you cant stop struggling with the problemwhether you might have caught COVID-19 when the guy behind you in line at the grocery store coughed.Anxiety can show itself in many ways.You might perceive something as threatening even when it isnt or goto great lengths to avoid uncomfortable situations.You might constantly overthink plans or spend all of your timecreating solutions to worst-case scenarios.Maybe you feel indecisive and fear making the wrong decision.Or youmight find yourself restless,nervous,and unable to relax.The good news is that anxiety is very manageable with some combination of medication,therapy,and lifestyleadjustments.32.What does the underlined word“curbs”in paragraph 5 most probably mean?A.Activates.B.Restricts.C.Damages.D.Removes.33.What can you infer from the passage?A.Social factors are to blame for anxiety disorders.B.Anxiety is the most common illness in the US.C.Mental well-being has been Meredith Arthurs concern.D.Anxiety disorders can be controlled with certain treatments.34.Which of the following is NOT the typical symptom of anxiety?A.Trying to find solutions to the worst situation from time to time.B.Hesitating to make the final decision for fear of mistakes.C.Heart racing and blood pressure rising at the imagined situation.D.Feeling restless or nervous even when theres nothing threatening around.35.What will the following part most probably talk about?A.The advance of science and technology.B.The effects of
