rather limitingher work to her contract（合约）hours.Nothing more,nothing less.If I didnt quiet quit myteaching job,I would burn out,she says.Like Perkins,quiet quitters on TikTok defend theirchoice to take a step back from work,but company managers and workplace experts argue thatalthough doing less might feel good in the short term,it could harm your careerand yourcompanyin the long run.In the wake of the global pandemic and the Great Resignation,employees began to reimaginewhat work could look like.Gallups State of the Global Workplace report in June found jobdissatisfaction at an all-time high,with 60%reporting emotional detachment（分离）from work.Disengaged workers cost the global economy an estimated$7.8 trillion in lost productivity and aneconomic slowdown.Now,companies have become

atwork,she says.Some workers,though,say that companies concerns about quiet quittingare unfounded.Shini Ko,a software developer,has set limits on her hours and now runs a small-scale vegetablefarm in

the Indian Ocean,he was diving to take samplesof a whale sharks skin.The sharks,averaging around 12 meters long,spend most of their lives in学科网（北京）股份有限公司the deep ocean where theyare hard to observe,so analyzing the chemical makeup oftheir tissues can help scientists learn more about their biology andbehavior,including what they eat.The skin samples that Meekan collected reveal that whalesharks,long thought to be strict meat eaters,also eat and digest algae（海藻）.The findings add toevidence that whale sharks intentionally eat plants,potentially making them the largest omnivoreson Earth.Although algae has turned up in the stomachs of beached whale sharks before,everyonethought it was just accidental ingestion（摄取）,Meekan says.To find out if that assumption held up,Meekans team took tissue samples from 17 whalesharks feeding off the coast of Western Australia from 2015 to 2017.Whale sharksskin was rich inarachidonic acid（花生四烯酸）that is found in brown algae,the analysis showed.The new work supports previous research by a different group that found algae-relatednutrients in the skin of whale sharks near Japan.Together,the findings suggest that digestinggreens is common practice for whale sharks.But that doesnt mean whale sharks are true omnivores,says shark biologist Robert Hueter.This is a bit like saying that cows are omnivores because they eat insects while feeding ongrass.”Meekan admits that he isnt sure whether whale sharks seek out algae,but the amount theyeat isnt incidental（附带的）.Their tissues hold a remarkable record of what theyve been up to,he says.Were now learning how to read this library.28.Why did Mark Meekan take samples of whale sharksskin?A.To observe the living conditions of sea life.B.To discover the eating habits of whale sharks.C.To explore the biology and behavior of sea life.D.To analyze the function of whale sharks tissues.29.What can we learn about Mark Meekans findings?A.Its common for whale sharks to take in algae.B.Its the first time to find whale sharks eat greens.学科网（北京）股份有限公司C.There is abundant arachidonic acid in brown algae.D.There are algae-related nutrients in whale sharks skin.30.What does the underlined word omnivores in paragraph 3 mean?A.Meat eaters.B.Animals living in the deep ocean.C.Living creatures.D.Animals feeding on meat and greens.31.What message does Mark Meekan convey in the last paragraph?A.Hell find out whether whale sharks eat plants.B.Hell record what whale sharks have been up to.C.Hell figure out why whale sharks digest greens.D.Hell read more about whale sharks in the library.DThe way I treat a clove（瓣）of garlic does not just change its size but its chemistry;thedecision to slice or crush it will shape the flavour of the meal.Cooking can show us this:ouractions matter.Through my work in the kitchen,I thought about what I had learned about time,about people and the world beyond me.Then I asked myself:What would I discover if I treatedcooking as thinking?When I cooked for myself as an 18-year-old,I attempted to improve the flavour of a dish byadding more things to the pot.But frustratingly,these dishes tasted of less.A logic of scale failedhere:more was not more.Then I came across a recipe for tomato sauce,through which I learned how small changeswould cause a big difference.The first few times I made it,I was respectful towards the amazingtransformation.But once I crushed the garlic instead of carefully slicing it,and the sauce tasteddifferent.Another time I replaced fresh tomatoes with canned,which resulted in a watery mixture.When I documented all the times I had cooked it,I was suddenly able to answer questionsthat had escaped me in the library during my studies.I had been studying the broken relationshipbetween language and the lived world for years.Through cooking,I saw how each time a recipewas translated anew in the kitchen.Therefore,life could be returned to language,reinvigorating（使复兴）it.学科网（北京）股份有限公司When I cook,Im using the knowledge produced through the work of generations of cooks inkitchens all over the world.Unlike the knowledge stored in libraries,this is information that eachperson who uses it can rewrite in their own image.People who cook become part of a chorus.When I began to pay attention,I could hear their voices in a bubbling pan.Cooking is thinking,and there is knowledge on an epic（史诗般的）scale in a pan of hot red sauce.32.Why is garlic mentioned in paragraph 1?A.To explain a rule.B.To present a story.C.To introduce a topic.D.To make a comparison.33.What did the author learn from the cooking experiences?A.Crushed garlic tastes better.B.Fresh tomatoes work better.C.Sliced garlic ruins the sauce.D.More ingredients improve flavour.34.What does paragraph 4 mainly tell us?A.Life can bring language alive again.B.A recipe can be renewed by each user.C.The relationship between language and the world is broken.D.The inspiration from cooking helps solve academic problems.35.What might be the best title?A.Less is more.B.Our actions matter.C.Cooking is thinking.D.Recipes have souls.第二节（共 5 小题；每小题 2.5 分,满分 12.5
