Many f us have heard f Alex Hnnld, wh made histry in 2018 when he became the first man t climb EI Capitan withut rpes r safety equipment. But his mther, Dierdre Wlwnick, just became the ldest wman t cnquer the famus peak: she reached the tp n September 23 — the mrning f her 70th birthday.
Dierdre, the writer and language teacher, decided t take up climbing as a means t cnnect mre with her sn. In 2008, accmpanied by her sn Alex, she visited a climbing gym and cmpleted 12 rutes that first day with his help, but it was mnths befre she wrked up the curage t return and practice n her wn.
Dierdre became cmmitted t the sprt, and began t meet friends and sharpen her skills. She scaled (登上) parts f Half Dme and Cathedral peak at a time when many peple at her age are thinking abut retirement and slwing dwn. The writer wuld g n t publish a bk abut her climbing experiences with Alex called The Sharp End f Life: A Mther’s Stry.
“As a mther, I am impressed by this rle exchange prcess. Parents and children ften wind up changing rles in life as they get lder,” she writes in her bk. “But never, I thught, is that transfrmatin as bvius as when they climb tgether.”
On September 23, Dierdre and her friends set ut in the dark, at 6 am. The rute is steep (陡峭的) enugh t require all-furs, grabbing rcks and trees and whatever else will hld the weight. Yet despite all difficulties the team made it t the tp. “It was really inspiring t watch her and then t have her n tp with all f us,” said ne f Dierdre’s friends. “There was a special lk n everyne’s face. We knew where we were. We knew hw amazing the mment truly was.”
24. Why did Dierdre start climbing muntains?
25. Which f the fllwing best describes Dierdre?
A. Patient B. Curageus.C. Intelligent. D. Generus.
26. What des the last paragraph tell abut Dierdre’s climbing jurney?
27. What may be a suitable title fr the text?

One aspect f the clean-energy change will happen inside buildings. Many hmes and businesses burn natural gas fr heating and cking. Natural gas gives ut greenhuse gases as well as ther pllutants that can harm health. Gas appliances (家用电器) can be replaced by electric versins and tap int clean electricity.
Panama Barthlmy is the directr f the Building Decarbnizatin Calitin. His grup, based in Petaluma, Calif., fcuses n limiting gas emissins indrs. “We assume the electric grid (输电网) is getting cleaner ver time, which it is. S, we want mre and mre f ur heating t cme frm electricity.”
It’s much easier t make these types f transitins when gvernments recmmend them, says Beth Miller. She is an eclgist and cnsultant with Gd Cmpany. Based in Eugene, Ore., it helps cmpanies and cmmunities reduce their carbn ftprint. Sme states are already taking steps t make these changes. On September 22, fr instance, Califrnia decided it wuld ban the sale f gas-fired space heaters and water heaters by 2030.
After hmes and businesses make the switch t electric alternatives, they will be mre cmfrtable, says Barthlmy. They will be safer and cleaner, t, he adds. Instead f a gas furnace(燃气炉), an electric heat pump culd bth heat and cl a hme. Gas heaters and stves wn’t be pumping pllutin int a hme’s air. And cks will have even mre cntrl n a mdern electric cker than n a gas stve says Barthlmy.
Getting natural gas ut f yur hme is prbably the largest psitive impact yu can have fr the planet, Barthlmy says. “We all need t fight fr a livable climate. There is n way t meet ur climate gals while still burning gas in buildings. Fr a livable future, we must take measures t stp burning natural gas, thugh we knw we have a lng way t g.” And the bnus: It nw lks like ding that shuld als save peple a lt f mney.
28. What is the clean energy change?
A. Using natural gas fr heating.B. Using natural gas t bil water.
C. Using electric ckers at hme.D. Using electric lights inside buildings.
29. What des the underlined wrd “transitins” in Paragraph 3 mean?
A. Prmises B. Plans.C. Changes. D. Decisins.
30. What can we learn frm Paragraph 4?
A. Hmes will be safer.B. Gas stves will be replaced sn.
C. Hmes’ air will have mre pllutants.D. Cks prefer t use traditinal ckers.
31. What is the best title f the text?
A. Clean-energy ChangeB. Electricity Use
C. Make Use f Natural GasD. Save Yur Mney at Hme

In Prtugal, near the twn f Alqueva, lies Eurpe’s largest artificial lake, hme t an innvative flating slar- pwer plant develped by EDP, a leading renewable energy cmpany. Despite initial skepticism abut the high csts and ptential issues f flating slar technlgy, this prject represents the sectr’s maturatin and readiness fr expansin.
In this first phase f the prject at Alqueva, engineers have statined sme 12,000 PV mdules(光伏组件)n flating platfrms made frm partially recycled plastic and lcally surced sft wd. These are cnnected t an energy-strage system cmbining batteries and are integrated with the hydrelectric dam’s pwer statin.
Flating slar prjects d face plenty f challenges. The kit has t be water-, wave-, wind-and strm-resistant, which adds cmplexity and cst. The fish in lakes attract plenty f birds, whse drppings can blck the sun. T deal with this, engineers fr the prject at Alqueva have develped remte-cntrlled cleaning rbts and are wrking n autnmus nes.
Yet flating slar prjects als enjy several advantages. When lcated at existing hydrelectric dams they d nt require any additinal land and can be cnnected t the grid(电网)withut the multi-year wait cmmn fr slar prjects. The cling effect f being n water bsts the efficiency f the mdules, with studies suggesting gains f between 5% and 15% ver land-based PV, while the shade they prduce slws the water lss f the lake.
EDP views flating slar as a crnerstne f its renewable energy strategy. The initial 5 megawatts(MW, 兆瓦) capacity at Alqueva may seem mdest, but it’s just the beginning. The cmpany is planning a secnd phase, which will see an additinal 70MW capacity by 2025. Accrding t Wd Mackenzie, a leading cnsultancy, flating slar technlgy culd deliver up t 60,000MW f renewable energy glbally by 2031. “This may pale in cmparisn t the 1,600,000MW f slar capacity installed as f last year. But every bit cunts,” he added.
32. Which f the fllwing best describes the EDP prject?
33. What can be learned abut flating slar prjects?
A. Engineers have develped aut cleaning rbts.
B. Flating slar prjects demand less time fr grid access.
C. Land-based PV mdules are mre prductive than flating nes.
D. The PV mdules decrease the water level f the lake.
34. What might EDP agree with accrding t the last paragraph?
A. The prject at Alqueva is an instant success.
B. By 2025 the prject at Alqueva will prvide 70MW capacity.
C. The prject will generate the majrity f glbal renewable pwer.
D. The flating slar technlgy has a prmising future.
35. What is a suitable title fr the text?
A. Flating Slar Ready t Shine
B. Slar Pwer r Hydr Pwer
C. The Dawn f Renewable Energy
D. A Glimpse int Glbal Flating Slar Farms

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选项。
Left-handed peple make up arund 12% f the glbal ppulatin. One really interesting fact that I picked up was frm a scientist wh believed that left-handed peple tended t be mre independent as a result f having t adapt t a wrld that is largely built fr right-handed individuals. 36 !
Mre likely t have allergies and sleep disrders
A study fund that left-handed peple were 11 times mre likely t suffer frm allergies than right-handed flk. 37
Left-handed peple use the right side f the brain the mst
38 , meaning that the right side cntrls the left side f the bdy and the ther way arund. Hence there is a well-knwn saying “nly left-handed peple are in their right minds”. The right-hand side f the brain is thught t cntrl the left side f the bdy and tasks t d with the arts and creativity.
Are left-handed peple smarter?
39 ! One 2007 study “Effect f handedness n intelligence level f students” shws that lefties are mre likely t have higher IQ. Hwever, anther 2010 study “The relatinship between hand preference, hand perfrmance, and general cgnitive ability” suggests the exact ppsite!
40
Experiments shwed that when given tw tasks t cmplete simultaneusly, lefties perfrmed best. This is because right-handed peple tend t slve prblems by breaking them dwn int parts and analyzing each piece ne at a time. While left-handed peple tend t lk at the prblem as a whle and use pattern-matching t try and slve it.
A. Better at multi-tasking
B. Smarter than the right-handed
C. As we knw, the brain is crss-wired
D. This ne varies depending n hw dated yur surce is
E. Here are a few mre fascinating left-handed peple facts
F. Mixed-handed children are mre likely t experience language issues
G. And lefties were tw and a half times mre likely t suffer frm sleep disrders

Nt finishing the 45 when the bell rang, I had t 46 it hme. In the 47 f my bedrm, the stry 48 all became clear t me! Luis Braille lived in a time when the blind culdn’t get much 49 .

We left tw 100-yuan ntes, thanked the waiter and left. As we were an entire blck away, we heard smene shuting behind us, waving a piece f paper. We quickly realized it was the waiter frm the restaurant. He didn’t speak English; we didn’t speak Chinese. But he ran an entire blck just t give us the 20 yuan, which was really surprising but mving. Since we were struggling t find the entrance t the subway then, we decided t turn t him fr help. He ndded and indicated we culd fllw him. We walked abut 3 blcks. Then he pinted t the entrance, and walked away. I culdn’t believe that he shuld take s much truble t help sme strangers. Similar experiences repeated themselves acrss China. The friendliness f the peple, and their eagerness t help are wnderful. I dn’t knw if that is classified as “culture shck” but it has made me think abut my wn cuntry where I rarely see such kind actins. It als inspires me t act that way n matter where I am.
