16、o books at my mothers house. I started with big cloth-and-leather-bound books. When I ran out of bound volumes, I began to slip my treasures into anything I could find, such as old fiction paperbacks and cookbooks. The same is true in my house today. Shake a book, and a treasure just might fall into

17、 your hand.A few years ago, in Nova Scotia, my husband and I pulled off the road for a picnic. The ground was thick with clovers. Some shoots had four, five, or even six leaves. I lined them up on the picnic table to admire. To me, it was simple. The differences in their shapes made them stand out,

18、breaking the pretty pattern of the common clovers with three perfect leaves.Two summers back, while waiting for an airport shuttle in Munich, I found a tiny four-leaf clover in a traffic circle and put it in my passport. On the way home, my husband and I were upgraded to business class. All of my fr

19、iends owed it to the clover. I think its some likely that we were upgraded because a flight was postponed （延误），which left us trapped in two cities for several hours.People disagree about whether the luck comes for finding or possessing a clover. Some believe that the luck is lost if the four-leaf cl

20、over is shown to somebody else, while others think that the luck doubles if it is given away. I believe that positivity is compounded （增强）by sharing.

24、is so thick; it extends more than 10, 000 feet above the ocean. And if all that ice were to melt and go into the ocean, global sea levels would rise by about 24 feet everywhere around the world/ said Jason Briner, a geologist who studies the ice sheet in Greenland at the University of Buffalo. The i

25、ce sheet of the biggest island in the world is melting, and the ice sheet that sits atop it is massive. The ice sheet is melting, of course. But just how much, compared to the past?Briners team did a computer simulation （模拟）of the southwest part of the Greenland ice sheet which he says is a good ind

26、icator （标示器）for ice melting across the entire ice sheet. The researchers fed past climate data into that model to “hindcast, （Vi报）rather than forecast, the past activity of the ice sheet. They then checked the models predictions of the past shape and size of the ice sheet by looking at piles of rock

27、s and dirt on Greenland today, which outline the edges of ancient ice. And the simulation was in good agreement with the actual situation.Using that reconstruction of the ice sheet over time, the team could compare the ice sheets historic losses to those happening today under human-caused global war

28、ming. And they determined that Greenland is on track to lose more ice this century than during any century in the past 12,000 years possibly four times as much.Finally, itzs up to us how much ice actually melts. If the world goes net carbon zero（零碳排放） by 2100, for example, Briner says ice loss could

29、 stop entirely at the end of the century, according to one model. Z/That was what kept me from being completely depressed about our study. Dozens of countries have already announced goals to go net zero by the middle of this century so far theU. S. is not one of them.28. What do we know about the Gr

The speed of its melting will be increasingly fast.B. The extent of its loss depends on human activities.C. Its ice

32、 loss will stop entirely at the end of the century.D. It will reach the goal of net carbon zero by the end of the century.31. What is the best title for the text?A. Rising Global Sea LevelsB.

33、100DHarvard scientists have created a bionic （仿生的）leafw that turns solar energy into liquid fuel. The work is the fruit of cooperation between Professor Pamela Silver at Harvard Medical School and Professor Daniel Nocera in the Faculty of Arts and Sciences.The pair; who began cooperating two years a

34、go, share an interest in developing energy sources that might someday have practical application in remote areas in the developing world. Silver named the system “bionic“ because it joins a biological system to a clever piece of inorganic （无机的）chemistry previously developed by Nocera; that invention

35、, widely known as the artificial leaf, turns solar energy into hydrogen （氢气）fuel.Noceras artificial leaf, which serves as fuel source in the bionic leaf, works by sandwiching a photovoltaic cells （光电池）between two metal oxide catalysts （氧化催化物）.When put in water at room temperature and normal atmosphe

36、ric pressure, the artificial leaf copies photosynthesis （光合作用）.Nocera has been perfecting the artificial leaf since he first demonstrated （演示）it in 2011； today, it is far more efficient than a field-grown plant, which assimilates only 1 percent of sunlights energy.The hydrogen is a fuel with a broad

37、 use, Nocera reports, and could easily become the basis of a fuel cell, but it has not been widely adopted, partly because it is a gas. By contrast, liquid fuels are much easier to handle and store.“Modern society, says Nocera, “has created an entire manufacturing economy based not only on burning f

38、ossil fuels, but on using oil to make things such as rubber and plastics/ A lot of chemistry was done which set that up, he notes. The present system makes sense now because oil costs so little; a sustainable system like the artificial or bionic leaf cant compete with that. But when oil becomes less

39、 and less, he say, “We might want to redo everything in terms of manufacturing. In the future, you might want to make everything renewable. Then, you can trust bionic leaf.What can be implied from the second paragraph?A. The pair invented the artificial leaf.B. Bionic leaf got its name from its inve

40、ntion developed by Nocera.C. The pair are concerned about energy sources in developing countries.D. Both bionic leaf and artificial leaf can change solar energy into liquid fuel.32. The underlined “assimilate in paragraph 3 most nearly means.A. recordsB. absorbsC. attractsD. equalsWhy does Nocera ha

41、ve faith in bionic leaf?A. Fossil fuels now are exhausted and cannot be employed.B. Bionic leaf guarantees a sustainable energy supply compared with oil.C. Liquid fuels created by bionic leaf are much easier to handle and store.D. Bionic leaf is far more efficient than a field-grown plant and fossil

42、 fuels.33. What does the author mainly talk about concerning the bionic leaf?A. Its scientific efficiency.B. Its current commercial uses.C. Its development and significance.D. Its difference from the artificial leaf.第二节（共5小题;每题2分，总分值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正确选项。选项中有两项为多余 选项。Science can help you

43、 improve your study methods. For more than 100 years, psychologists have done research on which study habits work best. 36 . Here are 4 tips to improve your study habits.Space out （间隔）your studyingNate Kornell, a psychologist at Williams College, thinks its a good idea to study the day before a big

44、test. 37 . Instead, space out those study sessions. Kornell compares our memory to water in a bucket that has a small leak. Try to refill the bucket while its still full, and you cant add much more water. Allow time between study sessions, and some of the material may drip out of your memory. But th

45、en youll be able to relearn it and learn more in your next study session. Practice, practice, practice!Musicians practice their instruments. Athletes practice sports skills. 38 . If you want to be able to remember information, the best thing you can do is practice, says Katherine Rawson. Shes a psyc

46、hologist at Kent State University in Ohio. In one 2013 study, students took practice tests over several weeks. On the final test, they scored better, on average, than students who studied the way they normally had.Test yourselfNebels preferred study habit is one of the best way. Before big tests, Ne

47、bels mom quizzed her on the material. /zNow I know that was retrieval （检索）practice, Hshe says. As Nebel got older; she quizzed herself. 39 Nebel suggests. z,Put questions on one side and the answers on the other side and try to quiz yourself the way the teacher asks questions, wshe adds.Dig deeperIt

48、s hard to remember a string of facts and figures if you dont push further. Ask why things are a certain way. How did they come about? Why do they matter? Psychologists call this elaboration （推敲）.Its taking class material and asking a lot of how and why questions about it. This helps you combine new information with other things you know. And it creates a bigger network in your brain of things that relate to one another, she says. 40 .A. The same should go
