A
Best Soda Alternatives
You know soft drinks aren’t a smart way to get rid of your thirst. Making them a habit increases your risk of being overweight. But water isn’t the only smart alternative. Choose pure juice which has fewer calories and more nutrients will contribute to your good health. Studies show surprising benefits from:
Orange Juice
Drinking a couple of glasses of OJ prevents the inflammation (炎症) that can be caused by a fast food breakfast, making damage to blood vessels less likely, a new study shows. The protective effect may come from the juice’s contents with anti-inflammatory properties.
Grape Juice
It’s a good source of antioxidants (抗氧化剂) that seem to strengthen brain function. In one study, older adults who drink grape juice daily for 12 weeks shows significant improvement on memory tests.
Lemonade Juice
Several studies suggest lemonade can help stay away from kidney stones, a painful problem that’s on the increase and cut your risk of a recurrence by as much as 90 percent with a large daily dose: Mix four ounces of lemon juice with two liters of water and drink straight up or sweetened, says Roger L. Sur, MD, director of the University of California, San Diego, Comprehensive Kidney Stone Center.
Apple Juice
Apples may reduce the risk of colon cancer, prostate cancer and lung cancer. Compared to many other fruits and vegetables, apples contain relatively low amounts of vitamin C, but a rich source of antioxidant compounds. The fiber content, while less than in most other fruits, helps regulate bowel (肠道) movements and may thus reduce the risk of colon cancer. They may also help with heart disease and weight loss.
21. Drinking soft drinks more often may develop the risk of _____.
A. fatness B. thirst C. heart attack D. cancer
22. As for those suffering memory loss, it’s better to drink _______.
A. Orange Juice B. Lemonade Juice
C. Apple Juice D. Grape Juice
23. What can we learn about apple juice?
A. It contains much more fiber than other fruits.
B. Its contents can help fight against inflammation.
C. There are abundant antioxidant compounds in it.
D. People with kidney stones should drink it more.

At the age of 86, agriculture teacher Gerald Bonds has seen plenty of crises during his career. He sees no reason to leave the profession over the coronavirus crisis. Bonds is in his 58th year of teaching at Farmington High School in Farmington, New Mexico. Like most teachers in his state, he has been instructing his students from home, which he truly dislikes.
“I hate it. I want to see the students face to face and talk to them,” Bonds told reporters with The Associated Press. Some teachers have retired early or taken leave because of the difficulties of distance learning and the health risks of in-person teaching. But many longtime instructors like Bonds are choosing to stay.
The states of New Mexico and Maine have the oldest teachers in the country, with one in four older than 55. That information comes from a 2018 study of teachers and school leaders by the National Center for Education Statistics. Almost six percent of New Mexico’s educators are 65 or older, notes the New Mexico Public Education Department.
With few exceptions, New Mexico’s schools have been providing only distance learning. So far, this has saved many teachers from dealing with the health risks of being in classrooms with students. Ryan Stewart is the New Mexico Education Secretary. He told the AP that his state is making health and safety number one. Teachers whose health is at a high risk can ask for low-contact or no-contact teaching work, he said. For some parts of the state, this will cause a shortage of teachers and make it harder to return to in-person learning, he noted.
24. Which words can best describe Gerald Bonds?
A. Dutiful and devoted. B. Diligent and talented.
C. Adaptable and learned. D. Capable and dynamic.
25. Why have some teachers quitted teaching over the coronavirus crisis?
A. Because they have no passion to teach.
B. Because they have been past retirement age.
C. Because they’re afraid of the high risk of infection.
D. Because they failed in conducting distance teaching.
26. What can we infer from the last paragraph?
A. Distance learning results in the lack of teachers.
B. Distance learning has saved many infected teachers.
C. Returning to in-person learning has been raised in the agenda.
D. New Mexico attaches great significance to teachers’ health and safety.
27. Which column may this passage be taken from?
A. Lifestyle. B. Culture. C. Health. D. Education.
C
Most of the efforts aimed at reducing climate change centering on reducing the use of fossil fuels. But a new study warns that pollution caused by the world’s food production system is also a major driver of rising temperatures on the planet. The study found that if the world food system stays on its current growth path, it will produce nearly 1.4 trillion tons of greenhouse gases over the next 80 years. That pollution is expected to come from chemical fertilizers used in agriculture, mismanaged soil, food waste and methane (甲烷) gas released from cows and other animals.
Researchers from the University of Minnesota and the University of Oxford in Britain led the study, which recently appeared in the publication Science. The researchers predict that even if fossil fuel emissions (排放) were halted now, emissions from the world food system would make it impossible to reach current international climate change targets. They say that emissions from food production alone could push world temperatures past 1.5 degrees Celsius by the middle of this century and above 2 degrees Celsius by the end of the century.
A main goal of the 2015 United Nations Paris Agreement on climate change is to keep rises in the Earth’s temperature during this century to between 1.5 to 2 degrees Celsius. The U. N. has said that in order to stay below the 1.5 Celsius level, emissions must fall at least 7.6 percent each year through 2030.
The new study calls for immediate improvements in farming practices, as well as changes in what we eat and how much food we waste to help reach the Paris Agreement goals.
28. Which is the pollution of food production system?
A. The process of producing food. B. Mismanaged soil by farmers.
C. Harmful gas given off by vehicles. D. Animals’ wastes used to be fertilizer.
29. What does the underlined word mean in Paragraph 2?
A. Improved. B. Withdrew.
C. Monitored. D. Quitted.
30. How does the writer develop the passage?
A. By making a comparison. B. By presenting data.
C. By giving examples. D. By taking on arguments.
31. What is the best title of the passage?
A. The Connection of Agriculture and Pollution
B. Say no to the Pollution of World’s Food Production System
C. Food Production System, a Major Cause of Global Warming
D. Fossil Fuel Emission, the Consequence of Temperature Rising
D
The Smithsonian National Zoo has confirmed that its six-week old giant panda is a male. The finding was announced on a zoo video earlier this week. Panda-keepers showed a painting in blue made by the baby’s father, Tian Tian.
The giant panda was born on August 21. Male and female giant pandas look very similar when young, so the zoo did a genetic test to learn whether the newborn is male or not. The panda does not yet have a name. The zoo usually waits until giant pandas are 100 days old to give them a name. At the time, the zoo said the newborn was about the size of a stick of butter -about 12 centimeters long and weighing 110 grams. Now, black accounts for two-thirds of his color. And he has grown quickly. He measures about 35 centimeters long and weighs about 1.6 kilograms.
His mother Mei Xiang is much bigger, weighing about 105 kilograms. The birth was welcomed as rare and happy news during the COVID-19 health crisis, which forced the zoo to close for several months. After Mei Xiang’s pregnancy was announced in August, Internet traffic on the zoo’s popular Panda live video feed increased by 1,200 percent, zoo officials said. When the baby was born about a week later, traffic went so high that the video connection broke for many watchers. Zoo officials had to add bandwidth as a result.
“Something like this is kind of a miracle for us,” National Zoo Director Steve Monfort said at the time. “It lifts the spirits of my team and the whole world.” For now, the Panda-Camera is still the only way the public can see the pandas.
32. The purpose of the zoo doing a genetic test on the new-born panda is to ______.
A. make out its sex B. do some research on gene
C. figure out who is its father D. evaluate its health condition
33. What can we know about the baby panda?
A. He is keen on a stick of butter.
B. He is more white and black in color.
C. He was given a name the instant he was born.
D. He is about fifteen times the weight of its birth.
34. People can see the baby panda by _______.
A. visiting the zoo in person B. avoiding the traffic jam
C. watching live videos D. making a contact with the zoo officials
35. What does the passage mainly talk about?
A. How to bring up a baby panda. B. Thrilling news of a panda’s birth.
C. Popular live video of a new-born panda. D. The panda zoo paid much attention to by public.

Britains collectively spend up to £ 1 billion every month on impulse buys, according to a survey last year by 118 118 Money. Mental health, mood and personality all play a role in that. 36 . Here are some of the most common ways that retailers tap into psychology. They rush persuade us that we are missing out if we don’t make a purchase.
Rareness
37 . Sales are by definition limited. Hotel websites also use this when they say four rooms are available but five people are viewing them. Beginning on free shipping works the same way. The pain of missing out on a free article can push us into spending a bit more, even if we do not need or want the extra items.
38
Reviews and recommendations are signals that a product is already tried and tested, so it feels safe. It works because we are a herd species: we copy each other to show we fit in, and because copying is an easier cognitive (认知的) process. 39 .
Payment
Once we are ready to spend, quick payment options such as one-click and guest checkout help us to check out before second thoughts kick in. 40 . Therefore, many people are in debt as a result of these ways of payment.
A. Social evidence
B. Attractive introduction
C. We had better think twice when choosing payment
D. Buy now, pay later options also give the illusion of payment flexibility
E. Anything limited creates a sense of urgency and promote us to act quickly
F. Some brands make the best of this by revealing what other consumers bought
G. However, consumer psychology is also being used to shape our choices online

When faced with tough difficulties or troubles, people always give us positive words. 41 can lift our spirits indeed, but sometimes in some case it 42 depresses us. Psychology calls it “toxic positivity.” What is it? Let’s see the following 43 .
Between sleepless nights, diapers (换尿布) and feeding times, having small children at home could leave Priscilla Goins feeling 44 . She loved her kids, but it was a lot. “I would sometimes say ‘I just want a minute to myself,’” Goins, of Knoxville, Tennessee, said. “People would be like: Oh, you’ll miss it when they’re 45 or you should value it.” That made her so mad. She doesn’t 46 what people say. She di
