that occurred insummer.Once,I was out shopping with my parents,when suddenly there was a loud noisecoming from the direction of the Apennine Mountains.As the storm got closer,lightning fell a few hundred metres from us,and hail(冰 雹)whitened the streets in minutes.This was a totally new experience for me,and I ran into myfathers arms in terror.I was afraid.But I was also in awe.Like the pull of a horror movie,myfear developed into fascination as I grew older.When a thunder storm broke out at night,I wouldrush to my window to witness a brilliant show in the night sky.I would wait in eager anticipation,equipped with my parentscamera,ready to try and capture a flashing moment.An interest in storm photography arose from these youthful attempts.What once frightenedme now gave me a strong rush,especially the first time lightning struck just a few metres awayfrom me,an experience which resulted in me capturing a splendid photo of the moment.Fromthat moment on,I realized that I absolutely had to chase storms throughout southern Italy.The truth is that storm chasing is quite dangerous,especially to those who set out to chasestorms without acknowledging the risks involved or respecting nature.Most accidents caused bylightning occur outdoors.You are most at risk in the mountains,but all large and exposed placessuch as a lawn(草坪)or a soccer field can also be a dangerous place during a storm,especiallyanywhere in the presence of water,such as the sea,beaches or outdoor pools.One day soon I will set off to expand my storm chasing journey beyond Italys horizons.Iwould love to go to Venezuela where electrical storms are guaranteed almost all year round onthe Catatumbo River and Lake Maracaibo.Maybe that will be the day that my parents finallyaccept the choice of my career.24.What is Paragraph 2 mainly about?A.The authors reaction during a storm.B.The authors most impressive memory.C.How the author got over his fear of storms.D.How the author developed interest in chasing storm.25.Which of the following places is the safest in a storm in the authors opinion?A.Aroom in a shopping centre.B.The beach near the sea.C.The lawn with open water.D.Apath in the mountains.26.Why will the author go to Venezuela in the future?A.To enjoy the splendid scenery.B.To seek a working opportunity.C.To join a team that chases storms.D.To capture the frequent electrical storms.27.Which of the following is a suitable title for the text?A.My Fear of StormsB.My Dream to Chase StormsC.An Opportunity to Respect NatureD.ADestination of My LifeCA groundbreaking new study finds that coffee beans are bigger and more plentiful whenbirds and bees team up to protect and pollinate(授粉)coffee plants.Without these winged helpers,some travelling thousands of miles,coffee farmers would seea 25%drop in crops,a loss of roughly$1,066 per acre of coffee.Thats important for the$26billion coffee industryincluding consumers,farmers,and corporations who depend on naturesunpaid labourbut the research goes beyond that.The study in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences is the first to show,using real-world experiments at 30 coffee farms,that the contributions of naturein this case,bee pollination combined with pest(害虫)control by birdsare larger than their individualcontributions.“Until now,researchers have typically calculated the benefits of nature separately,and thensimply added them up,which actually underestimates the benefits biodiversity provides toagriculture and human well-being,”says lead expert Alejandra.“But nature is an interactingsystem,full of important synergies(协同).We show the ecological and economic importance ofthese interactions in one of the first experiments in actual farms.”For the experiment,researchers dealt with coffee plants across 30 farms,excluding birdsand bees with a combination of large nets and small bags.They tested four key situations:birdactivity alone,bee activity alone,no bird or bee activity at all,and finally,a natural environment,where bees and birds were free to pollinate and eat insects like the coffee berry borer,one of themost damaging pests affecting coffee production worldwide.The combined positive effects ofbirds and bees on fruit set,fruit weight and fruit uniformitykey factors in quality andpricewere greater than their individual effects,the study shows.“Birds,bees,and millions of other species support our lives and livelihoods,but face threatslike habitat destruction and climate change,”says Alejandra.“One important reason we measurethese contributions is to help protect the many species that we depend on,and sometimes takefor granted.”28.What does the new research focus on?A.Ways to increase coffee production.B.Winged helperseffects on coffee plants.C.Factors affecting coffee plantspollination.D.The importance of pest control on coffee plants.29.Which of the following is a major boost to the coffee industry?A.High-quality service.B.Government intervention.C.Expanding investment.D.Maintaining biodiversity.30.How did the researchers conduct the tests according to Paragraph 5?A.By introducing a concept.B.By making comparisons.C.By explaining statistical data.D.By referring to a previous study.31.In which section of a newspaper may this text appear?A.Advertisement.B.Health.C.Science.D.Travel.DIf you face two similar valued options for where to attend college,you have weighed thepros and cons,but you still have difficulty deciding.You decide to give it more time,and thinkabout it a bit more.The findings of a fascinating paper titled Irrational Time Allocation in Decision-Makingsuggests you might be making a mistake.Participants in the research viewed images thatcontained pairs of different foods and they had to choose which item they preferred to eat.The researchers found that participants spent more time choosing between options that wereroughly equal in value than between options in which there was a large value disparity.In otherwords,people took longer than they should have when deciding between two equally appealingchoices.When shown an unpleasant food alongside a favoured food,participants chose quickly.When shown a favoured food alongside another favoured food,people took a while.Relatedly,there is research suggesting that people take longer to distinguish between twonumbers when there is a small difference than when there is a large one.For example,peopletake longer to determine which number is larger between 47 vs 49 than for 12 vs 35.Perhaps thistendency explains why people take so long to choose between two options with roughly equalpayoffs.In the same way that we have difficulty distinguishing numbers that are nearly equal invalue,we also have difficulty choosing between options that are roughly equally pleasant.However,there are doubts among people.Some think this seems not reasonable.If twochoices are equally appealing,then the decision shouldnt take so long.Some wonder whetherthis works in the opposite directionwhether duration of decision-making implies that optionsare equal.When options are roughly equal,people tend to take a long time to decide.Does thissuggest that if people take a long time to decide,then options are roughly equal?Maybe in someinstances,the longer we take to make a decision,the less it matters what we actually choose.32.Whats peoples common practice in decision-making?A.They often rush a decision without much thinking.B.They seldom balance advantages and disadvantages.C.They only concentrate on their personal preferences.D.They tend to spend too much time on their options.33.What does the underlined word“disparity”in Paragraph 3 probably mean?A.Difference.B.Preference.C.Growth.D.Potential.34.What does the research convey in Paragraph 4?A.It is difficult for people to value their options.B.The value of numbers is difficult to distinguish.C.People hesitate when facing two similar choices.D.People prefer to take those high-valued options.35.What is the best title for the text?A.Never Too Late to Make a DecisionB.Be Patient with Appealing ChoicesC.How to Handle Various Choices?D.The More Time,the Better Decision?第二节第二节(共共 5 小题;每小题小题;每小题 2.5 分,满分分,满分 12.5 分分)阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。A favourite musical tune can fuel positive memories,boost your mood,and create arelaxing setting.36Here are some ways to dig into the power of music.Having trouble staying motivated during workout?37Research in the November 2019Psychology of Sport and Exercise found that upbeat music can make a workout seem lesschallenging and more enjoyable.In the study,people performed high-intensity intervaltraining(HIIT).The exercisers in the music group reported enjoying their workout more thanthose in the slow or non-music groups.38But waking up to a pleasant tone instead of a sharp alarm can reduce morningsleepiness and improve efficiency,suggests a study published online Jan.28,2020,by PLOSOne.Set your smartphone alarm to play soft,harmonic sounds or a relaxing tune.Music helps to relieve stress in a medical procedure.An analysis of 72 trials involvingalmost 7,000 patients found that patients who listened to music before,during,and after surgeryreported less pain.Music produces a calming effect by stimulating the brains pleasure region.The right choice of music also appears to be necessary.39“Music that is predictable(可预测的)can promote feelings of control and calm,”she says.Many studies have shown that students who listen to slow and peaceful sounds have lessanxiety.According to Diaz-Falcon,these sounds provide a calming environment and blockdistractions in your thought process.She says,“Peaceful music is also believed to activate areasin your brain responsible for analytically thinking and creativity,as well as increasing the brainsability to absorb and store information.”40A.Try some relaxing music.B.Turn up some music with a fast beat.C.Music has long served as a sleep aid.D.Professor Diaz-Falcon says music can increase your energy.E.Try
