One morning in July 2011, a taxi sat wandering outside Petco Park stadium in San Diego. And

Wade LeBlanc, a (an) 11 pitcher (棒球投手) for the Padres, climbed in. “To the airport, please,” he told the driver. LeBlanc was headed to Tucson, Arizona, home of the club’s A-level branch organization at the time. He’d been sent down to the minors. Again. For the eighth time in three years.

“You’re Wade LeBlanc,” the taxi driver said.

“Right.”

“You got some good stuff.”

This 12 the pitcher, after the previous night’s disastrous performance.

“I think there are some things you should think about 13 ,” the driver continued. “I don’t know; I’m not a 14 . Maybe something like going over your head in your windup

(摆臂动作).”

Wait, what? This guy was offering... 15 ? Earlier in his career, LeBlanc might have 16 . Or been angry. But today, he just 17 . He couldn’t afford to dismiss anything. His career was on the line.

The next day, in Tucson, LeBlanc met his 18 . He said he was thinking about making 19 to his windup. His coach agreed. Instead of keeping his hands tight to his chest at the beginning of his delivery, LeBlanc raised them briefly over his head, as the taxi driver had 20 .

LeBlanc included the new 21 into his next start. And he was 22 , allowing only one hit over seven innings ( 回合). It was the turning point in his career. Eight years later, LeBlanc is a pitcher for the Seattle Mariners. He signed the first contract extension of his Major League Baseball career—at age 33.

The funny thing about advice: We so often take it from the 23 people. That is, we 24 the advice of experts, while undervaluing the input of regular folk. Wade LeBlanc 25 that trend, and he obtained the 26 .

“Expert advisers often make surprisingly inaccurate predictions about the future, yet people 27 their sug gestions nevertheless,” concluded Stanford University psychologists in a study published last year.

Now, not everyone took experts’ advice. The more 28 people become, the smaller the pool of advisers they 29 . Participants in positions of power ignored almost two thirds of the advice they received, according to one Harvard University study. Other participants—the control and low power groups—ignored advice about half as often. So it required a massive increase of modesty (谦虚) to do what Wade LeBlanc did: hear what the taxi driver was offering

Which meal kit service is right for you?

As the simple act of shopping and preparing food for dinner becomes harder to fit in, a way to help meet consumer needs and change the way we shop and eat has grown: meal-delivery plans. Here’s a quick review of some popular options:

1.HelloFresh

HelloFresh provides high-quality ingredients(烹饪原料) and generous portions(份量), with recipes that are generally easy to prepare. The clear, step-by-step instructions get even the newest

home chefs up to speed, and the recipe cards are well-made, so you can refer to your favorite recipes again and again. There are meals for almost any lifestyle, including vegetarian( 素食 ) options, low-calorie meals and “quick” recipes that get dinner on the table fast.

Cost: $8.75 to $9.99 per serving, with up to 16 servings per week.

2.Freshly

Get fresh, home-cooked food without the trouble of actually cooking. This subscription service delivers comfort foods to your doorstep, and the meals are prepared right before delivery. Never frozen and only req uiring minimal reheating, they’re nutritious and cost less than many standard takeout options.

Cost: $7.99 to $11.50 per serving, with up to 12 servings per week.

3.Blue Apron

Blue Apron is full of fresh ingredients, with traditional or vegetarian options. Like many of the plans, the food is delivered in one big box and the recipe card is separate from the meal ingredients. The variety is good and the recipes are generally easy to prepare.

Cost: $7.49 to $9.99 per serving, with up to 16 servings per week.

4.EveryPlate

EveryPlate offers simpler meals for a lower cost. Users can choose between eight recipes each week, so there isn’t a lot of flexibility for different dietary needs, but the recipes are full of flavor and give subscribers generous portions. If you’r e looking for an affordable way to get into meal kits, EveryPlate is a good option.

Cost: $4.99 per serving, with up to 12 servings per week.

5.Daily Harvest

Daily Harvest specializes in delicious smoothies. The meals are packed with fruits and vegetables, making nutrition easy and tasty. Smoothies just require the addition of liquid, so feel free to add your favorite type of milk or water to the blend and get your day started.

Cost: $6.99 per serving, with between 9 and 26 servings available.

Kylie Kirkpatrick was getting ready for work when her 9-year-old son, Ryan Kyote, burst into her bedroom. The Napa, California-based third-grader had just watched a news story about a kindergarten student in Indiana who was forced to return her school lunch because her account balance couldn’t cover the meal.

“Ryan was upset,” Kirkpatrick told TODAY Parents. “He said, ‘Mom, how does something like this happen?’ Then he asked what he could do to help.”

After a bit of brainstorming, Kyote—pronounced “coyote”—decided he would use six months’ worth of allowance he had saved up to pay off the lunch debt of his entire class at West Park Elementary School. The bill came up to $74.50.

Though Kyote had been eyeballing a new pair of basketball sneakers, this was far more important to him. So, on May 24, he happily donated his six months of savings to the Napa Valley Unified School District food services department.

“Ryan told them, ‘Please let my friends know that they no longer owe any money,’” Kirkpatrick recalled. “Lunch is his favorite part of the day and it broke his heart to think that it’s a stressful time for some children.”

The fourth-grader-to-be wanted his act of kindness to be unknown to others, but his proud mother couldn’t resist sharing a photo on Twitter, where it spread quickly.

“Give this kid his money back. No child should be covering lunch debt for his class with his allowance,” wrote one person. Added another: “Love this story ... Special kid.”

Practicing good deeds is nothi ng new for Kyote. “I’ll go into the garage and Ryan’s bike is missing because he gave it to a friend in need,” Kirkpatrick, a sign-language interpreter, told TODAY Parents. “One time, a friend didn’t have any shoes that fit, so Ryan gave him a pair of his own shoes.”

Recently, an investor got wind of what Kyote had done for his classmates and he contacted Kirkpatrick. “He wanted to give Ryan money to put in his savings account,” she said.

Kyote, who recently lost his father to ALS, had another idea.

“Ryan told the man to pay it forward,” Kirkpatrick said. “So he made a donation to the ALS Association. I can’t even begin to tell you what that meant to Ryan. All he wants is to make the

world a better place.”

34.How did Ryan feel after watching the news story about a kindergarten student?

A. Shocked.

B. Relieved.

C. Excited.

D. Bored.

35.Instead of buying a new pair of sneakers, Ryan was more concerned about .

A. his school lunch

B. his account balance

C. his six months of savings

D. his classmates’ lunch debt

36.What do we know about Ryan Kyote from the passage?

A.He tried his best to help his friends in need.

B.He couldn’t resist sharing his photos on Twitter.

C.He accepted a donation from the ALS Association.

D.He argued against negative reviews on social media.

37.What does the story intend to tell us?

A.Life is always tough for school children.

B.A kid can make a difference in the world.

C.Social media can make young people popular.

D.Friendship is an important part of being a youth.

A crucial period for learning the rules and structure of a language lasts up to around age 17 or 18, say psychologist Joshua Hartshorne of MIT and his colleagues.

Previous research had suggested that grammar-learning ability developed in early childhood before hitting a de ad end around age 5. However, Hartshorne’s team reports online in Cognition that people who started learning English as a second language in an English-speaking country by age 10 to 12 ultimately mastered the new tongue as well as folks who had learned English and another language at the same time from birth. Both groups, however, fell somewhat short of the grammatical fluency displayed by English-only speakers. After ages 10 to 12, new-to-English learners reached lower levels of fluency than those who started learning English at younger ages because time ran out when their grammar-absorbing ability fell starting around age 17.

Aiming for a sample of tens of thousands of volunteers, Hartshorne began by contacting friends on Facebook to take an online English grammar quiz, which used a person’s responses to guess his or her native language and dialect ( 方言) of English. Then volunteers filled out a questionnaire asking where they had lived, languages they had spoken from birth, the age at which they began learning English and the number of years they had lived in an English-speaking country.

In the end, the researchers analyzed responses of 669,498 native and nonnative English speakers. Statistical calculations focused on estimating at what ages people with varying amounts of experience speaking English reached peak grammar ability.

Researchers who study language learning regard the new study as fascinating, but exploratory. According to psycholinguist David Barner of the University of California, San Diego, Hartshorne’s team can’t yet say that language skill develops along a single timeline. Different elements of grammar, such as using correct word order or subjects and verbs that agree with one another, might be learned at different rates, Barner says. It’s also unclear whether the responses of volunteers to an online, 132-item grammar test reflect how well or poorly they actually speak English, he says.

What’s more, language learning involves more than a crucial period for acquiring grammar, cautions linguist David Birdsong of the University of Texas at Austin. For instance, growing up speaking two languages at once puts still poorly understood burdens on the ability to grasp grammar, he says.

In the new study, people who were bilinguals from birth fell short of peak English grammar scores achieved by English-only speakers. That’s consistent with evidence that bilinguals cannot easily turn off one language while speaking another, Birdsong says. Interactions between tongues spoken by one person may slightly depress how much can be learned about both languages, even if bilingual communication still reaches high levels, he suggests.

38.Hartshorne and his colleagues found that .

A.one reaches a higher level of fluency at age 10

B.one learns a second language fastest at about age 12

C.one gets a good grasp of English grammar before age 5

D.one’s ability to master grammar declines at around age 17

39.Hartshorne collected data through .

A. social media

B. experiments in the lab

C. literature review

D. face-to-face interviews

40.David Barner believes that .

https://www.360docs.net/doc/e63525120.html,nguage skill develops along a single timeline

B.online volunteers do not cover a wide enough range

C.different grammar items may be acquired at different paces

D.the quiz in the new study does not include enough questions

41.What can we know about bilinguals from the last two paragraphs?

A.They can achieve a perfect grammar score.

B.Grammar learning is the biggest burden for them.

C.They are able to make a swift shift between languages.

D.Speaking two languages affects their language acquisition.

The last decade saw the rise of the field of “plant neurobiology (神经生物学)”. That debatable field is based on the idea that plants—which do not possess brains—handle information in ways similar to complicated animal nervous systems. This thinking implies that plants could feel happiness or sorrow or pain, make intentional decisions and even possess consciousness. But the chances of that are “effectively zero,” Lincoln Taiz and colleagues write in an opinion piece in Trends in Plant Science. “There’s nothing in the plant remotely comparable to the complexity of the animal brain,” says Taiz, from the University of California, Santa Cruz.

Some plants are capable of complicated behavior. Wounded leaves can send warning signals to other parts of the plant, and harmful chemicals can warn animals that eat them. Some plants may even have a version of short-term memory: Tiny sensing hairs can count the number of touches that come from a clumsy insect. But plants perform these with equipment that’s very different from the nervous systems of animals, no brain required, Taiz argues.

He and colleagues point out methodological (方法的) faults in some of the studies that claim plants have brain-like command centers, animal-like nerve cells and changing patterns of electricity that are similar to activity found in animal brains. But beyond the debate over how these studies are conducted, Taiz’s team argues that plant consciousness doesn’t even make sense from an evolutionary (进化的) point of view.

Complicated animal brains advanced in part to help a living being catch a meal and avoid becoming one, Taiz says. But plants are rooted to the ground and rely on sunlight for energy, an inactive lifestyle that doesn’t requ ire quick thinking or outsmarting a predator (捕食者)—or the energetically expensive nervous systems that enable those behaviors.

“What use would consciousness be to a plant?” Taiz asks. The energy required to power awareness would be too costly, and the benefit from such awareness too small. If a plant worried and suffered when faced with a threat, it would be wasting so much energy that it wouldn’t have any left to do anything about that threat, Taiz says.

Imagine a forest fire. “It’s unbearable to even consider the idea that plants would be conscious beings aware of the fact that they’re being burned to ashes, watching the young trees die in front of them,” Taiz says. The frightening scene illustrates “what it would actually cost a plant to have consciousness.”

Furthermore, plants have plenty to do without having to be conscious, too. With sunlight, carbon dioxide and water, plants create the compounds (化合物) that sustain much of the rest of life on Earth, Taiz points out. “Isn’t that enough?”

42.According to Paragraph 1, a plant neurobiologist would most probably agree that .

A.plants are capable of independent thinking

B.plants are as biologically complex as animals

C.plants developed nervous systems for survival

D.plants feel emotions in the same way as animals

43.What does the underlined “one” in Paragraph 4 refer to?

A. A predator.

B. A meal.

C. An inactive plant.

D. A living being.

44.Which statement does Linchol Taiz believe?

A.Plants possess brain-like command centers.

B.The lifestyle of plants requires nervous systems.

C.It is unnecessary for plants to have consciousness.

D.Nervous systems enable plants to fight their predators.

45.Lincoln Taiz introduces a forest fire to .

A.suggest new ways to study the behaviors of plants

B.discuss the possibility of plants escaping a disaster

C.illustrate how plants make decisions in face of dangers

D.prove consciousness would do plants more harm than good

Why does rain seem to make you sleepy?

This s pring on the east coast of the US, it feels like we’ve lost touch with the sun. In Washington, DC, 14 of the first 17 days of May were rainy. 46 It means that for me, May has been one of the months I’ve felt the sleepiest. The dull weather can hit almost all of our senses in a way that gives a sign to us it is time for a sleep.

First, there’s what we see—or rather, what we don’t. 47 When it’s raining and skies are cloudy, we miss out on our body’s internal alarm clock. As Naomi, a scientist from Central Queensland University said, when you don’t see the sunlight first thing in the morning, your body never gets the signal that it needs to shift into daytime mode.

48 Plants produce oils during dry periods, possibly to stop seeds from developing. When it rains, the water brings out the oils and they mix with a chemical to create a “musky” smell. 49 Additionally, after a thunderstorm there’s a chance you may smell ozone (臭氧), which is generated when lightning interacts with the air. Some compare its smell to that of clean bed sheets.

Rain sounds are also comforting. The rhythmic pattern of rain hitting a roof, umbrella, or the ground below is called “pink noise.” Pink noise is a category of background noise that has all of the frequencies that human can hear and has lower volumes at higher frequencies. According to some research, it may improve our quality of sleep by decreasing our brain activity. 50 The difficulty in waking up, the fresh, earthy scents, and the peace of the rain tapping on windows are enough to make anyone want to go back to bed for the day. Sadly, none of this evidence is enough to justify doing so; but it can at least explain why you may feel a little sleepy on these cloudy days.

A.Noises can make us feel sleepier during the daytime.

B.The others have been cloudy and dull for at least part of the day.

C.That earthy smell of rain can make you feel calm and comfortable.

D.It makes it easier for us to wake up from our sleep the night before.

E.Sunlight causes our bodies to stop producing what makes us sleepy at night.

F.And you’ll also smell that when you are in your garden turning over your soil.

G.You can listen to an hour of rain on a window here, if you intend to test it out.

Dear Jim,

I’m glad to hear from you. In your letter, you mentioned the photo you saw in the book, where we Chinese students are doing “exercise between classes”. Because you want to know what it is, I will tell you more about it.

Exercise between classes is part of every Chinese student’s daily routine. It’s designed especially for primary and middle school students. We usually do it between classes, which lasts 20 minutes. However, on hot summer days, some schools organize it in the early morning. In order to develop the whole body, the exercise contains some basic movements like jumping, moving, running, clapping, and kicking. We perform it at the same pace to the music.

I think it a very necessary way to do exercise between classes. On the one hand, we strengthen our body through exercise. On the other hand, we learn more about teamwork and discipline.

If you have any more questions, do n’t hesitate to ask me.

Yours,

Li Hua

Last term, I joined the Biology Club and had a fulfilling time growing some Chinese cabbages in our school garden.

With a keen interest in biology, I jumped at the opportunity to become a member of the Biology Club, presenting required materials and eagerly writing down my name. Shortly after receiving the good news that I was admitted into the club, I attended a lecture by our biology teacher on how to grow vegetables. I listened with fascination and took notes.

What followed was something I would never forget. We dug little holes in the earth, into which we sowed the seeds. Then we covered the seeds with soft soil and watered it properly. Only a few days later, the seeds sprouted. We could hardly contain our excitement at the sight of the tender shoots in our experimental field. Over the following three months, we watered them on a daily basis, observed the growing process and kept a record of it, witnessing them grow taller day by day.

The cabbages were harvested in late autumn, and we were all satisfied with the final product. We took pictures holding the Chinese cabbages, just like they were trophies. Despite the hard work and long wait, it was a delightful experience.
