23、he kids can definitely be a part of! We used test tubes for three sets of primary colors. You can use less as long as you have enough to go around with all the colors mixing. First, add red, yellow, and blue food coloring (one color per test tube) in order. Give each test tube a little stir (搅拌) to

24、evenly distribute the color. Try to put the same amount of food coloring in each container. Cut thin strips of white paper towel to fit in the test tubes. Place them into the test tubes. There will be two ends in each tube. Wait and watch what happens. At this point, you can set up a stopwatch to ma

25、ke notes of how long it takes for the colors to meet and mix。Before you insert the strips, you have the perfect opportunity to make some predictions about what will happen. Have your kids come up with a prediction for their experiment? Will the water walk? You can start the conversation with What do

26、 you think will happen when we put the towels into the water?”The whole process starts pretty quickly, but it does take a while for the colors to begin to mix with each other. Extend the science activity： pull out the watercolors and do some color mixing art while you wait. Make sure to check on you

27、r walking water science experiment every once in a while to see the changes that are constantly taking place. The kids will be amazed at how the water seems to fight against gravity! As the paper towels absorb the colored water, the water travels up the towel strip. It meets up with the other colore

28、d water that has traveled up the neighboring strip. Where the primary colors interact, they turn into the secondary colors. Both colors will continue to travel as long as the towel fibers absorb the water.The experiment is colorful and simple to do! Plus, it is interesting for multiple ages. Older k

29、ids should be able to set it up all by themselves and can also use our science journal page to record their results.24. What materials are needed for the experiment?A. Test tubes, food coloring and paper towel.B. Drinking water, test tubes and a notebook.C. Food coloring, water cups and a paper cutt

30、er.D. Mixed colors, towel strips and food containers.25. In the experiment, youre expected to .A. add three colors into each containerB. set up a stopwatch from the beginningC. put colorful towel strips in the test tubesD. stir each test tube to make the color even26. Water in the test tubes can wal

31、k because .A. food coloring has the power to take in waterB. towel fibers absorb water and allow it to travelC. water flows naturally under the influence of gravityD. colors interact with each other and thus travel easilyCFor todays increasingly interconnected food supply chains, “efficient” is what

32、 its supposed to be： Each country specializes in what its best at and puts it on the global market. Producers and processors within countries specialize, too, as a way to minimize costs. As a result, at least in theory, prices stay low, the world gets fed and everyone wins.However, the coronavirus c

33、risis demonstrates what is wrong with this approach. When barriers prevent food from reaching its markets, or demand suddenly dropsboth of which are happening nowthe system falls apart.Specialization of the food system makes it hard to shift into different markets when disruptions arise. Belgium, a

34、leading exporter of potatoes, lost sales not only to local restaurants but also to other countries because of lockdowns(封锁). At least the Belgians can try to eat the potatoes at home. That strategy wont work for every crop： Ghana, the worlds top cocoa exporter, lost markets when people started focus

35、ing on buying essential items instead of chocolate.The loss in export income in Africa more generally could have a huge impact if the pandemic continues, as many countries there rely heavily on imported wheat and rice. The prices of these grains have soared not only because of rising demand for thes

36、e grains during the crisis, but also because a few countriesincluding Russia and Vietnamimposed export restrictions out of fear that sending food abroad would lead to higher prices at home.Concentrated markets dominated by just a handful of companies heighten food system fragility. For example, just

37、 three meatpacking plants process over 95 percent of Canadas beef and nearly all of its beef exports. Now, those meat processing plants have had to temporarily shut down because of outbreaks of COVID-19 among workers.Seeing the spoiled products across the world should force all of us to rethink our

38、efficient” food supplies. We need to rejuvenate(使恢复活力) local and regional food systems to reduce the vulnerabilities that come with being too reliant on imported and corporate-dominated foods. This doesnt mean cutting off all trade or abolishing all packaged foods, but it does mean building diversit

39、y, and increasing opportunities for small and medium-scale enterprises to flourish in shorter, more sustainable food supply chains that are closer to home.One place to start is for governments to shift their support from the large-scale, specialized and export-oriented food system to building infras

40、tructure for more diverse local food systems. Around the world .small-scale and organic producers have been overwhelmed with the surge in interest from customers who want to buy directly from farmers during the crisis. But these producers often lack the infrastructure to meet that demand. As governm

41、ents around the world pass stimulus packages to address the crisis, building more diverse and localized food systems should be an obvious inclusion.27. In theory, specialization of the food system .A. adapts to changes efficientlyB. balances supply and demandC. focuses on essential itemsD. reduces c

42、osts of28. The underlined word fragility in Paragraph 5 means .A. weaknessB. diversityC. unfairnessD. complexity29. What can we learn from the passage?A. A few countries restrict exports to stabilize local food prices.B. Grain prices rise due to Africas dependence on importation.C. Ghana might be le

43、ss affected by lockdowns than Belgium was.D. Packaged-food consumption should be encouraged to address the crisis.30. The main purpose of this passage is to .A .expose food security issues during the crisisB. advocate establishing diverse local food systemsC. discuss the development of a sustainable

44、 economyD. prove the importance of sound government policiesDEvery day, it seems that some new algorithm(算法)enables computers to disease a disease with unprecedented accuracy, renewing predictions that computers will soon replace doctors. What if computers could replace patients as well? If virtual

45、humans could have replaced real people in some stages of a coronavirus vaccine trial, it could have sped development of a preventive tool and slowed down the pandemic. Similarly, potential vaccines that werent likely to work could have been identified early, reducing trial costs and avoiding testing

46、 poor vaccine candidates on living volunteers. These are some of the benefits of in silico medicine, or the testing of drugs and treatments on virtual organs or body systems to predict how a real person will respond to the therapies.The modeling begins by feeding anatomical data drawn from noninvasi

47、ve(非侵入式)high-resolution imaging of an individuals actual organ into a complex mathematical model of the mechanisms that govern that organs function. Algorithms running on powerful computers resolve the resulting equations and unknowns, generating a virtual organ that looks and behaves like the real

48、thing.In silico clinical trials are already underway to an extent. HeartFlow Analysis, for instance, enables clinicians to identify CAD（冠心病） based on CT images of a patients heart. The Heart Flow system uses these images to construct a fluid dynamic model of the blood running through the coronary bl

49、ood vessels, thereby identifying abnormal conditions and their severity. Without this technology, doctors would need to perform an invasive operation to decide whether and how to intervene. Experimenting on digital models of individual patients can also help personalize therapy for any number of con

50、ditions and s already used in diabetes care.The philosophy behind in silico medicine is not new. The ability to create and simulate the performance of an object under hundreds of operating conditions has been a cornerstone of engineering for decades, such as for designing electronic circuits, airpla

51、nes and buildings. Various obstacles remain to its widespread implementation in medical research and development.The predictive power and reliability of this technology must be confirmed, and that will require several advances. Those include the generation of high quality medical databases from a la

52、rge, ethnically diverse patient base that has both women and men; improvement of mathematical models to account for the many interacting processes in the body; and further modification of AI methods that were developed mainly for computer-based speech and image recognition and need to be extended to

53、 provide biological insights.In recent years American and European regulators have approved some commercial uses of computer-based diagnostics, but meeting regulatory demands requires considerable time and money. Creating demand for these computer-based diagnostic tools is challenging as well. In si

54、lico medicine must be able to deliver cost-effective value for patients, clinicians and health care organizations to accelerate their adoption of the technology.31. According to the text, “in silico medicine might help .A. discover the cause of an illnessB. quicken the creation of new medicineC. rec

55、ognize the symptoms of a disease earlierD. avoid including unhealthy volunteers in trials32. We can learn from the text that Heart Flow Analysis .A. works effectively in CAD treatmentB. offers personalized therapies to patientsC. reduces the chances of invasive operationsD. builds models after ident

56、ifying abnormal conditions33. According to the author, further application of “in silico medicine” requires .A. money and time from the regulatorsB. replacement of old mathematical modelsC. more proof of its effectiveness and dependabilityD. progress in speech and image recognition technology34. Whi

57、ch of the following is the best title for the text?A. Looking to AI to End Experimental StudB. In Silico Medicine Saved Millions of livesC. Exploring the Future of Algorithm in MedicineD.

When we dont believe that we are worthy of these things, our ability to enjoy them can suffer. 35 Healthy self-esteem as an adult can be a gift given in your childhood.

61、led in studies or in sports and were admired for it by peers._37_ As children, many of these people were criticized, yelled at, or abused in one way or another. There is also a high chance that they were given no attention by the adults who were supposed to care for them. In some cases, adults with

62、poor self-esteem were often ridiculed for their shortcomings or bullied by peers.It is common that these adults also believe that in order to be appreciated they need to be perfect 38 There are people who are obsessed with their careers or hobbies because in their mind they need to tie their worthin

63、ess to something concrete. Oftentimes these people have to pretend to be something they are not just to get approval.How you feel about yourself impacts how you live your life. People with high self-esteem tend to have better relationships than those with low self-esteem. 39 So if you struggle to re

64、ach out for assistance, it could be rooted in your low self-esteem.A. There is also a good chance that they were spoken to respectfully.B.

67、 good. Just give them some time.” Those words just stirred a lot of anger in me.Then I read the story of the Chinese bamboo farmer, which gave me a different view on life. The seed of the Chinese bamboo is planted in the ground like every seed. It is watered and fed with nutrients daily, but it show

68、s no immediate physical response and doesnt appear to grow. The farmer continues to water and feed the seed in year one, year two, and year three. No growth is seen until the fourth year, when the seed finally breaks through the ground. Then, in the space of just five weeks, it grows ninety feet tal

69、l. The Chinese bamboo grows to its full capacity within 5 years.Despite not seeing an immediate result, the farmer had trust in what he was doing. He continued to water and feed the plant for four years, because he believed that if he played his own role and did all that a farmer was supposed to do,

70、 then he would be given his reward at the right time. That trust and patience is what kept the farmer persistently feeding his seed for four years before enjoying the reward in the end.Life is not always straightforward.
