Happy? Angry? Calm? etc、Build up your vocabularyA wide vocabulary is the key to successful language learning but don't try to learn too mach at once、It’s best to study frequently,for short periods of time、Take a maximum of six or seven items of vocabulary and learn them、Put them into sentences to fix them in your mind,then e back to them later、Much of the vocabulary in the course is presented by topic、And above all,have fun!( )46、Why should one have himself recorded when practising speaking?A、 T o encourage others to startB、 To record his own progress、C、 To improve his speaking、D、 To pare himself with others、( )47、Which of the following is the most important in learning English?A、Speaking、B、Pleasure、C、Intuition、D、Vocabulary、( )48、It is implied in the passage that is helpful when you are learning English、A、body languageB、a good memoryC、a good friendD、a proper dictionary ( )49、Which of the following proverbs(谚语) seems not to be always true in learning a language?A、Practice makes perfect、B、A good beginning is half done、C、Rome is not built in a day、D、Don’t run before you can walk、BBy far the most mon difficulty in study is simple failure to get down to regular concentrated work、This difficulty is much greater for those who do not work to a plan and have no regular routine of study、 Many students muddle along ,doing a bit of this subject or that ,as the mood takes them, or letting their set work pile up until the last possible moment、Few students work to a set timetable 、They say that if they did work out a timetable for themselves they would not keep to it ,or would have to change it frequently ,since they can never predict (foresee) from one day to the next what their activities will be 、No doubt some students take much more kindly to a regular routine than others 、There are many who shy away from a self-controlled weekly timetable ,and dislike being tied down to a fixed programme of work 、Many able students state that they work in cycles 、When they bee interested in a topic they work on it attentively for three or four days at a time 、On other days they avoid work pletely 、It has to be admitted that we do not fully understand the motivation(动机)to work 、Most people over 25 years of age have bee used to a work routine ,and the majority of really productive workers set aside regular hours for the more important areas of their work 、The “tough-minded” school ofworkers doesn’t fully accept the idea that good work can only be done naturally ,under the influence of inspiration(灵感)、Those who believe that they need only work and study as the fit takes them have a mistaken belief either in their own talent or in the value of “freedom”、Freedom from control and discipline(纪律)leads to unhappiness rather than to “self-expression” or “personality development”、Our society insists on regular habits ,timekeeping and punctuality (准时),and whether we like it or not ,if we mean to make our way in society ,we have to meet its demands、( )50、The most widespread problem in applying oneself to study is 、A、changing from one subject to anotherB、the failure to keep to a set timetable of workC、the unwillingness to follow a systematic planD、working on a subject only when one feels like it( )51、Which of the following is true?A、Many students are not interested in using a self-controlled timetable、B、Many students don’t like being told to study to a fixed timetable、C、Most people over 25 years of age don’t work to a set timetable、D、Tough-minded people agree that good work is done naturally、( )52、The underlined part “as the fit takes them” in paragraph4 means 、A、 when they have the energyB、 when they are in the moodC、 when they feel fitD、 when they find conditions suitable( )53、A suitable title for the passage might be 、A、 Attitudes to StudyB、A Study PlanC、 The difficulties of StudyingD、 Study andSelf-disciplineCWhat makes one person more intelligent than another? What makes one person a genius, like the brilliant Albert Einstein, and another person a fool? Are people born intelligent or stupid, or is intelligence the result of where and how you live? These are very old questions and the answers to them are still not clear、We know, however, that just being born with a good mind is not enough、 In some ways, the mind is like a leg or an arm muscle、It needs exercise、Mental (done with the mind) exercise is particularly important for young children、Many child psychologists (心理学家) think that parents should play with their children more often and give them problems to think about、The children are then more likely to grow up bright and intelligent、 If, on the other hand, children are left alone a great deal with nothing to do, they are more likely to bee dull and unintelligent、Parents should also be careful with what they say to young children、 According to some psychologists, if parents are always telling a child that he or she is a fool or an idiot, then the child is more likely to keep doing silly and foolish things、So it is probably better for parents to say very positive (helpful) things to their children, such as “That was a very clever thing you did、”or “You a re such a smart child、”( )54、The words “intelligent” and “brilliant” in the first paragraph probably mean _______ while “dull” in the second paragraph means ________、A、 bright and splendid; slow in thinking and understandingB、 pretty and handsome; ordinary-lookingC、 great and important; monD、 hopeful and helpful; careless( )55、 A person ________ is more likely to bee a genius、A、 whose parents are cleverB、 often thinking about difficult problemsC、 often helped by his parents and teachersD、 born with a good brain and putting it into active use ( )56、It is better for parents ________、A、 to praise and encourage their children more oftenB、 to be hard on their childrenC、 to leave their children alone with nothing to doD、 to give their children as much help as possible( )57、 Which of the following is NOT true according to the article?A、Parents play an important part in their children’s growth、B、 The less you use your mind the duller you may bee、C、 Intelligence is obviously the result of where and how you live、D、What makes a person bright or stupid is still under discussion、DNo one could have failed to be moved had he watched the live televised volleyball game between the Chinese and Cuban women’s teams、 As we sat before the television set, with oureyes fixed on the screen, we experienced every kind of feeling、When the two teams played neck and neck, we were on pins and needles, anxious as to what would e next, and when our team fell behind our hearts were in our mouths、Watching the game between those two teams is not only a matter of great joy、 For more than that it provides food for thought、Just see how the Chinese women won the game ──by their co ──operation (合作), by their excellent skill, their effort and strong will、 A Chinese sa ying goes, “When two petent opponents (比赛得双方) meet, the strong ──minded one will win、“This is the spirit of the Chinese Women’s Volleyball Team、If every Chinese showed some of the spirit, never losing heart in times of difficulty and remaining clear ──min ded in times of advantage (优势), then our nation would stand in the vanguard (前列) of the world family of nations, just as the Chinese Women’s Volleyball Team has done, is doing and will do、( )58、 While watching the game, we _____、A、 had feelings of different kindB、 enjoyed a friendly and wonderful gameC、clapped and cheered only for the Chinese Women’sVolleyball TeamD、 were eager to know what would happen later on( )59、 The wonderful game _____、A、 brought us great joyB、 provided us with food for our thoughtsC、 gave us not only great joy but also food for thoughtsD、 give us a valuable amusement( )60、 The author believed that _____、A、the Chinese Women’s Volleyball Team was the strongestB、 China was sure to bee stronger and stronger if only wehave that spirit of the Chinese Women’s Volleyball TeamC、The Chinese must remain clear-minded in time of advantageD、The Chinese Women’s Volleyball Team never lost heartin times of difficulty( )61、 The best title of the passage might be _____、A、 Watching a Close Volleyball GameB、The Spirit of the Chinese Women’s Volleyball TeamC、 Learn from the Members of the Volleyball TeamD、The Strong ──Minded Are the WinnersEIf you wish to bee a better reader, here are four important points to remember about rate, or speed, of reading:1、 Knowing why you are reading—what you are reading to find out—will often help you to know whether to read rapidly or slowly、2、Some things should be read slowly throughout、Examples are directions for making or doing something, arithmetic problems, science and history books, which are full of important information、You must read such things slowly to remember each important step and understand each important idea、3、Some things should be read rapidly throughout、Examples are simple stories meant for enjoyment, news, and letters from friends, items, or bits of news from local, or hometown, paper, telling what is happening to friends and

"The fight against cyberbullying is like a war, and in this war I am a fearless fighter," Sadat Rahman said during a ceremony on November 13 in The Hague, the Netherlands. He added, "If everybody keeps supporting me, then together we will win this battle against cyberbullying."Rahman developed a mobile phone application that provides education about online bullying and a way to report cases of it. He said he began his work on the project after hearing the story of a 15-year-old girl who took her own life as a result of cyberbullying. "I will not stop until we receive no more cases through the app," Rahman said at the ceremony.The award comes with a fund of over $118,000, which is invested by the Kids Rights Foundation. The group chooses projects to support causes that are closely linked to the winner's work.Past well-known winners of the prize include Pakistani human rights activist Malala Yousafzai and Swedish climate activist Greta Thunberg. And the students who organized the March for Our Lives event in 2018 after a deadly mass shooting at their school in the American state of Florida also won the prize.Yousafzai praised Rahman's work during the ceremony.

The Red Delicious apple is likely to lose its title as the most popular apple this year, which it held for more than half a century. The U.S. Apple Association is projecting, that the Gala apple will usurp（夺取）the Red Delicious for the top spot.The group, which advocates on behalf of 7,500 apple growers and 400 companies in the apple business, predicted that the U. S. would grow 52.4 million Gala apples in 2018, up 5.9 percent from a year earlier. Red Delicious apple production is expected to fall 10.7 percent to 51.7 million.Consumers apparently like the Gala's "taste, texture（口感）and sweetness," the U.S. Apple Association said in a statement. "The rise in production of newer varieties of apples aimed at the fresh consumption domestic market has caused demand for the Red Delicious to decline." said Mark Seetin, the association's director of regulatory and industry affairs.The Granny Smith, Fuji and Honeycrisp apples are expected to rank third, fourth and fifth. The association predicted that within a year or two the Honeycrisp may pass the Granny Smith and Fuji, jumping into third place. The production of the apple rose 21.8 percent to 23.5 million this year. That puts it ahead of the Golden Delicious apple for the first time. The Honeycrisp was created by the University of Minnesota's apple breeding（培育）program only 21 years ago. It typically costs more than its competitors.Until the 1970s, Americans had only a few choices of apples. While the Golden Delicious offered a color contrast and the Granny Smith brought tartness（酸味）to the table, the Red Delicious was the star, heavily promoted by Washington state growers. Then wholesalers began looking for tastier varieties, finding them overseas in Japan, home to the Fuji, and New Zealand, which had the Braeburn and Gala.（1）How does the author prove Americans' preference for the Gala?A.By using statistics.B.By listing examples.C.By explaining causes.D.By presenting research findings.（2）What do we know about the Honeycrisp?A.It is sour in flavor.B.It is light in color.C.It is gaining popularity.D.It is losing its price advantage.（3）Which of the following comes from New Zealand?A.The Fuji.B.The Honeycrisp.C.The Braeburn.D.The Granny Smith.（4）What does the text mainly tell us?A.Why Americans eat apples from different countries.B.How different apples are becoming popular in America.C.How American farmers choose their apple growing types.D.Why the Red Delicious was Americans' favorite for 50 years.causal inferences rather than simply finding patterns. "At some point—you know, if you're intelligent—you realize maybe there's something else out there," he says.【长难句分析】1. After playing thousands of games against itself at a super speed, and learning from winning positions, Alpha Zero independently discovered several famous chess strategies and even invented new ones.翻译：在以超快的速度与自己对弈数千场，并从获胜位置中学习之后，Alpha Zero独立地发现了几种翻译：著名的国际象棋策略，甚至发明了新的策略。

When Joann left，I 4 myself and managed to ask Megan very quietly，“You forgot to look at the clock?” Megan lowered her head and said，“Well, we were just experimenting to see what it would feel like not to go back to school.” For the moment I was getting angry. I considered 5 her, but instead I said，“I’m very upset by all this. When you’re supposed to be in school，that’s 6 I expect you to be.

According to its latest Global E-Waste Monitor, India is the third top producer of e-waste in the world. E-waste in Indian landfill goes on to pollute soil and groundwater, affecting food supply systems and water sources.Thankfully, the country has a new group of artists who are changing these thrown mechanical items-from mobile phones to old televisions-into large murals( 壁画)and artworks to creatively show their concern for the waste problem.Over the past quarter of a century, Mumbai's Haribaabu Naatesan has transformed hundreds of tonnes of e-waste into art, integrating elements from nature and industry. "I get my waste material from friends. relatives and neighbours who know my interest in e-art and send me bags of thrown electronic appliances, "says Naatesan. Over his career, he has created huge murals for several companies. He has also showed his work at the India Art Fair, as well as several other national displays.Another artist Vishwanath Davangere has also long worked with e-waste. He likes to take apart old laptops and reassemble(重新组装)them into birds, animals and plants. After retirement, he started pursuing this hobby more seriously and started selling his creations across the world. His most outstanding works include a robotic Egyptian statue with glowing red eyes and a Milky Way made from keyboard keys. He hopes to enable others to reconsider their own consumption habits and make more environmentally conscious choices."By giving e-waste a second chance, I aim to raise awareness about the environmental impact of electronic waste."says Davangare, who today has a collection of more than 600 eco-art objects.4．Why do the artists create artworks from E-waste?A．To promote their artistic career.B．To update electronic appliances.C．To make profits for several companies.D．To express their environmental concern.5．What can we learn about Naatesan from paragraph 3?A．His creations are displayed globally.B．He gains support from people around.C．He has been creating e-art for 10 years.D．His works integrate technology and history.6．Which of the following best describes Davangere?A．Reliable.B．Confident.C．Devoted.D．Generous.7．Which can be a suitable title for the text?A．E-waste Recycling Sweeping the WorldB．Environmental Problems Worrying IndiansC．An Art Movement Turning Trash into CashD．Indian Creatives Transforming E-waste into Art阅读理解In1921, Karel Capek's play R. U. R:Rossum's Universal Robots had its first public performance in Prague, and was translated into English the following year. He needed a name for the factory-produced humanoid workers of the story, and was thinking of coining something based on the word "labour". But his brother Josef suggested an old Czech word for "forced labour", robota. And the word "robot" was born.If the Capeks had known English, they might have chosen one of the words with relevant senses that were already in the language. "Automaton" had been available since the 17th century and "android" since the 18th. But the clear sound of "robot" seemed to capture the public imagination, because within five years it was being used not only for intelligent artificial beings but for any machine capable of carrying out a complex set of movements.In science fictions(小说), the word took on new life, with writers such as Isaac Asimov writing well-regarded novels in which robots played a central role. It was these writers who first shortened "robot" to "bot", but none of them could have expected the explosion of usages which arrived in the 1990s, as the shortened word came to be adopted in computing. Today, a bot is any piece of software that runs an automated task, such as in searching the Internet or playing computer games. It has also become a suffix(后缀) , with the function of the "bot" explained in the other part of the word, as in searchbot, infobot, spybot and warbot.As early as 1923, George Bernard Shaw had applied the word "robot" to people who act automatically, without thinking or emotion, usually because of the repetitive work they have to do. Now anyone having automaton-like behaviour risks attracting the label. A movie star called Samantha who has taken on the same type of character too many times might have her roles described as "Samanthabots. "And in 2009"Obamabots"arrived -people who support Barack Obama without really knowing anything about him.8．What does the underlined word "coining "in paragraph 1 mean?A．Delivering.B．Predicting.C．Inventing.D．Recommending.9．How did the word "robot" develop in the 1990s?A．It was no longer linked with machines.B．It was gradually replaced by "android".C．It was shortened and used in computing.D．It was only adopted in well-regarded novels.10．What is the last paragraph mainly about?A．The usage of "robot" in different situations.B．The impact of "robot" on people's behavior.C．The popularity of "robot" among movie stars.D．The connection of "robot" with public figures.11．Where is the text probably taken from?A．A writer's biography.B．A science fiction.C．A technology newspaper.D．A language encyclopedia.阅读理解The road to a Nobel Prize, the most respected scientific award in the world, is growing ever longer, with almost half of winners now waiting more than 20 years from making a Nobel-worthy discovery to receiving the prize.One analysis shows that the average time between publishing the work and receiving one of the science prizes has nearly doubled in the past 60 years. Across the three science prizes, chemistry now has the longest "Nobel lag"-an average of 30 years over the past decade -and physiology or medicine has the shortest, at 26 years.Alfred Nobel's will stated that the prizes should be awarded "to those who, during the previous year, shall have given the greatest benefit to mankind. "In reality this has only happened a few times. But in the first half of the twentieth century, it was common for Nobel prize winners to be in their 30s -and that is unheard of now, says Santo Fortunato, now a computational social scientist at Indiana University.There are a number of possible reasons for this, says Yian Yin, a computational social scientist at Comell University. It could be that the overall number of breakthroughs is increasing each year, so awards cannot keep up with the number of people who deserve to be recognized, he says. It is also the case that the importance of some works, which Yin describes as "sleeping beauties" are only realized years or decades later. Besides, the lengthening gap could be a sign that there has been a decrease in "disruptive" science -important studies or discoveries that change the paradigm( 范式)of their field. This could be causing the Nobel committees to focus more on the past.Fortunato points out that, if the gap continues to grow, outstanding scientists could miss out on the award owing to the Nobel Committee's rule banning posthumous prizes(追授奖项) . "It has to stop at some point, "he says, adding that a rethink of the posthumous-awarding ban would allow more people's work to get the recognition that it deserves. 12．Why does the writer mention the numbers in the first two paragraphs?A．To explain a rule.B．To present a fact.C．To clarify a concept.D．To make a prediction.13．What can we learn about the Nobel prize winners from the paragraph 3?A．None of them are in their 30snowadays.B．Their names are unheard of by the public.C．None of them receive the prizes several times.D．They must make contributions the year before.14．Why might be a cause of the Nobel lag?A．The change in standards.B．The requirement of the award.C．The increase in breakthroughs.D．The tradition of the committees.15．What does Fortunato suggest in the last paragraph?A．Reconsidering the current rule.B．Establishing a better committee.C．Stopping the award presentation.D．Recognizing more people's work.二、第二部分，阅读理解，第二节(共5 小题：每小题2.5分, 满分12.5分)阅读下面短文, 从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

AWhen Thanksgiving is drawing near,many families are getting ready to enjoy a tradition that goes back hundreds of years:baking and eating delicious pie.Two classic desserts will battle it out at holiday tables.Is pumpkin pie better than apple pie?Yes—pumpkin pie is perfectThree reasons why pumpkin pie is better than apple pie1.As one of America’s first crops,pumpkin has become fall’s signature flavor since the early18th century.Even300years ago,Americans knew it was the best pie.2.With its warm,comforting mix of cinnamon(肉桂),nutmeg(豆蔻),and other spices,delicious pumpkin pie gives you perfect bites that melt in your mouth,which simply can’t be beaten.3.As a bonus,pumpkins are packed full of vitamins and nutrients that are good for your body.So cut a perfectly shaped slice of pumpkin goodness and dig in.No—apple pie all the wayThree reasons why pumpkin pie is not better than apple pie1.Apple pie is just about as old as our country and even appeared in America’s first cookbook. Have you heard the expression“It’s as American as apple pie”?No one says that about pumpkin pie!2.There are countless variations on the classic,with different spices and flavorings,dried fruits and nuts,and different crusts(酥皮).Apple pie is the clear winner for people who love the balance of fruit and buttery pie crust.3.To quote another expression,“An apple a day keeps the doctor away.”That means apples are nutritious and help keep us healthy.Now that you’ve read a bit more about this issue,click here to vote in our debate.Vote YES if you think pumpkin pie is better than apple pie or NO if you don’t.We’ll publish the results next week.21.What do pumpkin pie and apple pie have in common?a.They are full of nutrients.b.They have similar flavor.c.They have deep roots in America.A.abB.bcC.acD.abc22.Where can the text be found?A.On a menu.B.On a website.C.In a magazine.D.In a cookbook.23.What’s the purpose of the text?A.To invite readers to vote in a debate.B.To distinguish pumpkin pie from apple pie.C.To advertise pumpkin pie is better than apple pie.D.To encourage baking and eating pie at Thanksgiving.BEugene Newman Parker,a leading figure in heliospheric(日球层的)physics for the past half century,passed away peacefully at his home in Chicago on Mar.15.He was94.Hailed(誉为)as a visionary in the field of heliophysics,Parker revolutionized our understanding of the sun and its effects on Earth and other bodies within the solar system.NASA even stated that“the field of heliophysics exists in large part because of Dr.Eugene Parker.In2018,Parker became the first living scientist to witness the launch of a spacecraft that was named in his honor.Parker is best known for his groundbreaking theory on the existence of a phenomenon called “solar wind”,a continuous stream of charged particles(粒子)that flow off the sun.It can become violent,causing space weather that impacts the Earth.When Parker’s research was published in1958, his theory was initially met with skepticism and ridicule by the scientific community.The general view at the time was that the space between planets was an absolute vacuum(真空),and was thus completely empty of any matter.But,there were no errors in his study or his calculations,and the theory was later proven to be correct in1962,when a NASA spacecraft mission to Venus revealed the constant presence of a supersonic wind—exactly as Parker had predicted.That experience likely led to the advice Parker often gave young researchers:“If you do something new or innovative,expect trouble.But think critically about it because if you’re wrong,you want to be the first one to know that.”Parker never co-authored a paper with his students,thus urging them to be independent.Parker was humble,straightforward,and wise.His son Eric said,“My sister Joyce and I didn’t get a real feel for what a‘big dog’our dad was in the field.”They got an even better sense when a month after Parker’s death,they traveled to Lund,Sweden,to accept on his behalf the Crafoord Prize in Astronomy.24.What can we learn from the second paragraph?A.A spacecraft was named in memory of Parker.B.The sun has less effects on Earth than expected.C.Parker deserved credit for his great contributions.D.NASA provided new insights into the lunar effect.25.Why did people view Parker’s theory of“solar wind”skeptically at first?A.It went against the popular opinion at that time.B.Some mistakes were found in his calculations.C.The presence of a supersonic wind was proven by NASA.D.Matter was believed to exist in the space between planets.26.What did Parker suggest young researchers do?A.seek close cooperationB.learn by trial and errorC.avoid high expectationspete against others27.What words can be used to describe Parker according to the passage?A.straightforward and generousB.responsible and accessibleC.intelligent yet meanD.distinguished yet modestCAccording to body language expert Robert Phipps,the way people sleep at night actuallydetermines a lot about the type of personality they have.Phipps has identified four sleeping positions that affect personality.Phipps found that worriers,those who stress the most,tend to sleep in the fetal position.He found that this is the most common bedtime position,with nearly58percent of people sleeping on their side with knees up and head down.The more we curl up,the more comfort we are seeking,according to Phipps.The second most common position is the log.Sleeping with a straight body,with arms at each side，as if they are standing guard at Buckingham Palace，indicates stubbornness,and these people(the 28percent who sleep this way)often wake up stiffer than when they went to sleep.“The longer you sleep like this,the more rigid your thinking is and you can become inflexible, which means you make things harder for yourself,”according to Phipps.Yearner(向往型)sleepers are next on the list.About25percent of people sleep in this style—on their side with arms stretched out in front,looking as if they are either chasing a dream or perhaps being chased themselves.Yearners are typically their own worst critics,always expecting the best results,explained Phipps.These people often wake up refreshed and eager to face the challenges of the day ahead.Perhaps the most peculiar of sleep styles is the freefaller position.This sleep style makes up17 percent of the population.They sleep face down with arms stretched out.These people,according to Phipps,feel like they have little control over their life.Not only is this the strangest of sleep styles,but also the least comfortable,and people may wake up feeling tired and have no energy.In conclusion,Phipps has only one more thing to add,“A good night’s sleep sets you up for the following day and our sleeping positions can determine how we feel when we wake.”28.What is the main idea of the passage?A.A Good Night's Sleep Sets You Up for the Following DayB.Your Personality Depends a Lot on How You Sleep at NightC.How You Sleep at Night Affects What You Do the Next DayD.Which Sleeping Position Helps You Sleep Comfortably29.Which of the following pictures is the fetal position?30.The underlined word“rigid”is closest in meaning to“________”.A.stubbornB.flexiblefortableD.strange31.Which sleeping position indicates that the sleeper tends to seek perfection?A.The fetal position.B.The log position.C.The freefaller position.D.The yearner position.DSupermarket shelves are filled with plant-based alternatives to cow milk,including soy,nut,and coconut milk.These products are popular with consumers who cannot drink cows’milk for health reasons,as well as with those concerned about animal welfare and environmental sustainability.While the dairy-free options work well with cereal or in coffee,they fail miserably when it comes to makingmilk-based products like cheese or yogurt.However,these shortcomings may soon be a thing of the past,thanks to a new company in California,which has figured out how to create animal-free milk in a laboratory!Perumal Gandhi and Ryan Pandya founded the company in2014after becoming increasingly annoyed with the lack of cows’milk-free alternatives,particularly for cheese.For Gandhi,who stopped consuming animal products five years earlier due to environmental and animal welfare concerns,the motivation to create a better alternative stemmed from his love of cheesy pizza.Pandya was spurred into taking action after being forced to eat some“really bad”dairy-free cream cheese on his sandwich.The two MIT biomedical engineering scientists decided to join forces to create a more realistic alternative to dairy-based products.In their university lab,the pair spent nine months first isolating cow DNA then inserting it into yeast(酵母).This genetic modification enabled the yeast to produce the necessary milk proteins.The final step of the process involved mixing the proteins with some plant nutrients and fats.The dairy-free milk not only tastes like the real thing but is also healthier,has a longer shelf life and,most important of all,is Earth friendly.According to the company’s website,when compared to conventional milk production,their process uses65%less energy,creates84%less greenhouse gas emissions and requires91%less land and an amazing98%less water!Best of all,since it contains real milk proteins,the product behaves like the cow-produced version,which means vegetarian consumers will no longer have to deal with soggy cheese on their sandwiches and pizzas.The company plans to bring their creation to market later this year and their first product will most likely be cheese since there are already numerous good cows’milk alternatives available to consumers.32.The underlined word"those"in paragraph1refers to_______.A.alternativesB.productsC.peopleD.reasons33.The company’s founders were motivated to make the new product because of_______.A.their deep concern for the environmentB.the poor taste of dairy-free cheese presently availableC.the over-consumption of the dairy-based productsD.their worry that farm animals were poorly treated34.What can be inferred from paragraph4?A.The dairy-free products cannot be stored for a long time.B.The new products will taste better than dairy-based ones.C.Cow farming causes considerable environmental damage.D.The dairy-free milk will be more expensive than cow’s milk.35.Which of the following can be the best title for the text?A.Healthier CheeseB.New Milk Saves PlanetC.Fresher Milk,Better
