16、6 years old, I skipped school for the first time. It was easily done: Both my parents left for work before my school bus arrived, so when it showed up at my house on that cold winter morning, I simply did not get on. The perfect crime! And what did I do with myself on that glorious stolen day, with

17、no adult in charge and no limits on my activities? Did I get high? Hit the mall for a shoplifting extravaganza (狂欢)? Nope. I built a warm fire in the wood stove, prepared a bowl of popcorn, grabbed a blanket, and read. I was thrilled and transported by a book it was Hemingways The Sun Also Rises and

18、 I just needed to be alone with it for a little while. I ached to know what would happen to Jake Barnes and Lady Brett Ashley and Robert Cohn.

19、ates (异乡客). I spent that day lost in words. Time fell away, as the room around me turned to mist, and my role as a daughter, sister, teenager, and student in the world no longer had any meaning. I had accidentally come across the key to perfect happiness: I had become completely absorbed by somethin

20、g I loved. Looking back on it now, I can see that some subtle things were happening to my mind and to my life while I was in that state of absorption. Hemingways language was quietly braiding itself into my imagination. I was downloading information about how to create simple and elegant sentences,

21、a good and solid plot. In other words, I was learning how to write. Without realizing it, I was hot on the trail of my own fate.

We switched our light bulbs to CFL (compact fluorescent light) bulbs to conserve energy. We went about the house turning off lights and unp

25、lugging appliances that werent in use. But the rate of global warming exceeded our snails pace conversion to greenhood. So I pressed onwardI decided to put veganism (素食主义) at the top of our agenda. Vegans refuse any animal flesh or commercial goods made from any animal byproducts such as milk or fat

26、s. All the family applauded this option except for my husband. Some kind of animal needed to sacrifice its dear life for his meal or it wasnt dinner. I cooked up a storm, struggling to prepare nutritious meals dominated by not-so-obvious vegan dishes like bean burritos and high-fiber vegetable stir-

27、fry. It took a few days before he realized that he hadnt been eating any meat.“I feel like eating beef.” he announced.

32、r?B. Discrimination or Appreciation?C. Vegetables or Troubles?D. Greens or Lions?DBack in the early 2000s, lots of people couldnt have imagined life without alarm clocks, CD players, calendars, cameras, or lots of other devices. But along came the iPhone and other smartphones, and they took over the

33、 functions of dozens of things we used to think were essential.The smartphone story could even be a model for fighting climate change; not because smartphones use a small part of the energy of all the things they replace although they do but because they represent a different approach to design in g

Now with an iPhone, we dont need the standalone devices a

36、t all, because it can function as all of them.So when it comes to using energy efficiently, rather than just installing a more efficient heater, some people have focused instead on the desired function: staying warm. They designed and coated their house so well that they could get rid of their heate

38、cars entirely?The most energy efficient car or heater is no car, or no heater, while still being able to get around and stay warm. In other words, its not thinking efficient, its thinking different.22. What makes the iPhone a good example of environmental protection?A. Perfecting individual devices.

39、 B. Combining possible functions.C. Adopting a minimalist design. D. Reducing the energy consumption.23. According to the passage, what is the core of improving energy efficiency?A.

42、have something far more advanced. Researchers, mainly from Oregon State University, US, found that Chinook salmon (鲑鱼) have a “built-in GPS” of the Earths magnetic field. 27 It acts like a big map inside their brain.Scientists placed some baby salmon into a big swimming pool. To simulate (模拟) the Ea

43、rths magnetic field, they put magnetic coils (线圈) all around the pool. Then, by changing the direction of the coils, the salmon began to change their own direction. They started to face in the direction of their ocean feeding area. 28 When the scientists changed the coils to the opposite side, the s

44、almon also turned in the opposite direction. Just by using their “built-in GPS”, the salmon were able to figure out the direction of their feeding area. 29 The scientists believe that their navigation skills came through evolution. The fish that were able to reach the feeding area lived longer. 30 S

45、o if youre ever lost and in need of some help, maybe you should ask a salmon to point you in the right direction!A. If you dont want to get lost, youll need a map!B. How did Chinook salmon get their “built-in GPS”?C. Then they could pass on their navigation skills to their babies.D. This is a safe p

46、lace in the ocean where salmon can find food to eat.E. However, the magnetic field is likely not the only tool salmon use to navigate.F.
