I thought that was the definition of a gift: something you made for someone else. We made all our Christmas gifts: piggy banks from old bottles, and puppets from retired socks. It didnt seem like a hardship to me; it was something special.My father loves wild strawberries, so for Fathers Day my mother would almost always make him strawberry cakes. While we kids were responsible for the berries, we each got an old jar and spent the Saturday before the celebration in the fields, filling it as more ended up in our mouths. Finally, we returned home and poured them out on the kitchen table to sort out the bugs. Im sure we missed some, but Dad never mentioned the extra protein.In fact, he thought that was the best possible present, or so he had us convinced. It was a gift that could never be bought. As children raised by strawberries, we were probably unaware that the gift of berries was from the fields themselves, not from us. Our gift was time, attention, care and “red” fingers.Gifts from the earth or from each other establish a particular relationship, a duty of sorts to give, to receive, and to exchange. The field gave to us, we gave to my dad, and we tried to give back to the strawberries. When the berry season was done, the plants would send out its red runners to make new plants. So I would weed out little fields of ground where the runners touched down. Sure enough, tiny little roots would emerge from the runner and by the end of the season there were even more plants, ready to bloom under the next strawberry season. No person taught us thisthe strawberries showed us. Because they had given us a gift, an ongoing relationship opened between us.（ ）24In the authors opinion, a gift should be _.Apractical and interesting Bluxurious and specialCpurchased from a store Dmade with personal effort（ ）25What did the children do for Fathers Day?AMaking strawberry cakes. BFinding the biggest strawberries.CGoing strawberry picking. DBaking fruit cookies.（ ）26What would the author do to give back to the strawberries?AMaking homemade gifts for her father.BDevoting time and attention to her family.CWaiting for the strawberries to get ripe again.DSearching for fields for the plants to take roots.（ ）27What did the family learn from strawberries?AHow to cook with strawberries. BThe importance of giving and receiving.CHow to make all kinds of gifts. DThe procedure of growing strawberries.C“By removing needless details in pursuit of perfection, Van Den followed in the footsteps of many great artists, writers, composers, and painters.”Juhani Murros made an unexpected discovery during his visits to art galleries when he worked for an organization in Ho Chi Minh City in 1990. A small still life in an unnoticeable gallery commanded the Finnish physicians attention. “It was not an eye-catching oil painting, yet its dark, mysterious colors and the emotional tension of its disciplined composition set it apart.” Thus began a long journey of discovering the art and life of Van Den, a Buddhist of mixed Chinese and Vietnamese ancestry who studied in Paris for less than two years during the first French Indochina War.Murros biography is, by necessity, brief because there is limited knowledge of the artist, mostly in oral way by family and friends. Many of his paintings did not survive the damp Southeast Asian climate nor the political chaos of his lifetime. However, the authors research appears to be extensive, as much a years-long spiritual examination of Van Den as a historical one. The artists love for country life is apparent in his work, and it is said by those who knew him that he preferred to paint countryside scenes close to his heart and worked as an outsider. He is uninterested in the more elegant work of academically recognized painters. Despite these limitations, Van Den won Vietnams most honorable art award in 1960.Murros gives an in-depth look into the life of this obscure master. The book introduces the readers to Van Dens art with photographs of his paintings, accompanied by short stories behind them. The book is as quiet as the artists work, but it is a satisfying read. Each stroke of words in the book connects to the readers; the narrative awakens the artistic spirit in each one of us, encouraging us to follow our heart.（ ）28What first impressed Juhani Murros?AVan Dens life story. BVan Dens painting style.CVan Dens birth place. DVan Dens emotional stale.（ ）29What can we learn about Van Den?AHis works are rarely available today. BHe showed great love for his country.CHis works were of mysterious themes. DHe ever travelled in China and Vietnam.（ ）30What does the underlined word “obscure” in the last paragraph probably mean?AFamous. BObvious. CLittle-known. DShallow.（ ）31In which column of a newspaper can we read the passage?AGeography. BScience. CHealth. DArt.DAs the Earth turns, its rotational axis (自转轴) naturally move a bit. Anything from ocean currents, to shifting molten rock under the crust, to the melting of glaciers caused by climate change can cause the axis to drift (飘移). Water stored in artificial lakes and season al changes in atmospheric winds can play a role as well.But global warming isnt the only human-caused factor moving the planets axis as some of us believe. A new study estimates that between 1993 and 2010, the pumping of groundwater and the resulting sea-level rise caused the axis to drift by about 2.6 feet. “Every mass moving around on the surface of the Earth can change the rotational axis,” said Ki-Weon Seo, a geophysicist at Seoul National University.In the study, the researchers used a computer model to look at the effects of different factors on the shift of the axis. When they didnt include groundwater removal in their model, their predictions did not match the level of shift that scientists have observed. But when they look into account the massive amount of pumped waterwhich totaled more than two trillion tons between 1993 and 2010 their model fit the real-world observations. From this analysis, the researchers estimate that the axis is moving 1.7 inches per year due to groundwater removal. Of the factors the study looked at, pumping groundwater was the second-largest contributor to the axis drifting, behind the melting Greenland ice sheet.The paper calls attention to just how much water humans have pumped, as Clark Wilson, a geoscientist at the University of Texas, tells Science. “The precise number doesnt matter really. What matters is that the volume is so huge that it can impact the polar drift of the Earth,” he says. “Groundwater removed from sites at the Earths midlatitudes (中纬度), such as in the U. S. and India, has a large impact on polar drift, compared with extraction at the equator or the poles. However, most of the pumping has occurred in these high-impact zones, causing the water removal to have a bigger effect on the axis,” says Wilson.（ ）32What does the author aim to do with the second paragraph?ATo correct a wrong belief. BTo raise a question.CTo introduce a scientist. DTo test a new theory.（ ）33The researchers used the computer model in their research mainly by _.Aputting it to field tests Bstoring related information in itCcomparing it with real-world facts Ddoing real-world observations with it（ ）34Which factor has contributed the most to the axis drift?AThe atmospheric winds. BThe melting of ice sheet.CThe artificial lakes. DThe groundwater pumping.（ ）35What could be a suitable title for the text?AFactors that Affect the Earths RotationBChallenges of Groundwater Our World FacesCClimate Change Has Shifted the Earths AxisDGroundwater Pumping Has Changed the Earths Axis第二节（共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余Do you ever feel like youre not good enough, even though youve done some cool stuff?
