Her passion to help others was awakened when, from the age of nine,

18、she accompanied her Tunisian father to his birthplace in the east of the country during holidays. There she organized homework clubs and activities for children. Toumi witnessed first-hand the destructive effect of desertification. “Within 10 years rich farmers became worse off, and in 10 years from

19、 now they will be poor. I wanted to stop the Sahara Desert in its tracks.” A decrease in average rainfall and an increase in the severity of droughts (干旱) have led to an estimated 75 percent of Tunisias agricultural lands being threatened by desertification.Toumi recognized that farming practices ne

20、eded to change. She is confident that small land areas can bring large returns if farmers are able to adapt by planting sustainable crops, using new technologies for water treatment and focusing on natural products and fertilizers(肥料) rather than chemicals.In 2012, Toumi consolidated her dream to fi

21、ght the desert. She moved to Tunisia, and set up a programme named Acacias for All to put her sustainable farming philosophy into action. “I want to show young people in rural areas that they can create opportunities where they are. Nobody is better able to understand the impact of desertification a

22、nd climate change than somebody who is living with no access to water.”By September 2016, more than 130, 000 acacia trees had been planted on 20 pilot farms, with farmers recording a 60 percent survival rate.

26、the SaharaD. Fighting Poverty in North AfricaCA recent issue of National Geographic magazine described one of the wonders of the Earth, the tiny silver ants of the Sahara Desert. These ants live in areas where temperatures reach up to 57, as the article described, an environment “where shoes melt”.T

27、hese tiny ants are amazing. In the Sahara Desert, where most creatures avoid going out in the middle of the day to avoid high temperatures, the Saharan silver ants have evolved a number of adaptations to do just that. Scientists have discovered that several unique features of the Saharan silver ants

28、 permit them to grow well in a scorching climate.These ants have longer legs than other ants, which keep their bodies critically greater distance away from the hot desert sand. The ants run 108 times the length of their own bodies every second at a speed of just over 3 kph. And they keep track of th

29、e position of the sun, so that they always know the most direct route back to the nest, thus lowering their time spent in extreme heat. Their bodies produce proteins that resist heat. Some other creatures produce such proteins after they come in contact with extreme heat. But since the silver ants o

30、nly exit the nest for a few minutes at a time not long enough for the protein to take effect they produce the protein while still in the nest before they go out, or they would die before the protein could take effect.Researchers also discovered that the ants are covered on their tops and sides with

31、the uniquely triangular(三角的) shape of the silver hairs, which enable them to dissipate (消散) heat. The hairs help an ants body exchange its heat to a cooler area, even under full sun conditions. This discovery inspired the scientists, for it could lead to new materials and paints that can be applied

32、to roof tops or cars to keep them cool. And it is also expected to be applied in clinical care, wearable devices, protective clothing and other fields.28. What does the underlined word “scorching” in Paragraph 2 mean? A. extremely chillyB. extremely coolC. extremely mildD. extremely hot29. Which sta

33、tement can be inferred from the text?A. The Saharan silver ants hairs act like a tiny air-heating system.B. The Saharan silver ants are born with the ability to track the moon.C. The Saharan silver ants adaptations to the desert are to be discovered.D. Inspiration from the Saharan silver ants will b

34、ring up more new inventions.30. When do the Saharan silver ants produce the protein that resists heat?A. After coming in contact with extreme heat.B. Before traveling in the sun.C. While running under full sun conditions.D. After coming back to the nest from outside.31. What would be the best title

35、for the text?A. Small Ants Make a Big DifferenceB. Small Ants Hunt for Food EasilyC. Small Ants Survive in the Sahara DesertD. Small Ants Jump the Fastest in the WorldDThe most important determining factor of success or failure at work and in life is self-awareness, the ability to understand who we

36、are, how others see us, and how we fit into the world. For millions of years, the ancestors of humans evolved painfully slowly. However, about 150,000 years ago there was an explosive development in the human brain where, among other things, we gained the ability to examine our own thoughts, feeling

37、s and behaviors, as well as to see things from anothers point of view. Not only did this transformation create the foundation for art, spiritual practices and language, but it came with a survival advantage for our ancestors, who had to work together in order to survive.Though we may not face the sa

38、me day-to-day threats to our existence, self-awareness is no less critical. There is strong scientific evidence that people who know themselves and how others see them are happier. They are smarter, superior students. They raise more mature children. They also tend to be more creative, confident and

39、 less aggressive.But for most people it is easier to choose self-delusion(自我欺骗) rather than the cold hard truth. Our increasingly “me” focused society makes it easier to fall into this trap. Recent generations have grown up in a world obsessed with self-esteem(自负), constantly being reminded of their

40、 special qualities. Not only are our assessments often flawed (有缺陷), but we are usually terrible judges of our own performance and abilities from leadership skills to achievements at school and work. Whats scary is that the least competent people are usually the most confident in their abilities.How

41、 can we avoid this fate? We must work on two specific types of insight. Internal self-awareness is an inward understanding of our passions and aspirations, strengths and weaknesses and so on. And external self-awareness, knowing how others see you, means understanding yourself from the outside in.Fo

42、r those looking to gain true insight, remember that other people often see us more objectively than we see ourselves and that self-examination can have hidden traps that make insight actually impossible.32. The first three paragraphs mainly talk about _.A. the significance of self-awareness in human

43、 survival and advancementB. the sharp contrast between self-awareness of today and the pastC. the necessity of a shift in self-awareness to satisfy the needs today D. the intelligence gap between modern men and their ancestors33. What s the problem with “me” focused society nowadays?A. Peoples perfo
