A

Europe s most beautiful places

Europe is an amazingly varied place. The old continent's historic cities and its Mediterranean

beaches draw many of its visitors, but the best destinations are sometimes its more remote cormers,

known mainly to locals and a few brave travelers.

Lake Inari, Finland

High above the Arctic Circle and close to Finland's border with Russia, Lake Inari is a year round

paradise. Dark, snowy winters make it ideal for catching a glimpse of the aurora borealis.

Its tree-lined banks glow a burnt orange during autumn and in summer, you can swim in its chilly

shallows. The center of local Sami culture, it's as remote and traditional as Finland gets.

Unst, Shetland Isles, Scotland

The most northerly occupied island of the British Iles, Unst is a wild, rugged place where seas

crash into the dramatic Muckle Flugga sea stacks.

The later are a harbor for gannets (

塘鵒

) during breeding season, with birdwatchers also treated to

the sight of searching skuas (

贼鸥

).

Yorkshire Dales, England

Its narrow lanes lined with drystone walls cry out to cyclists seeking marvelous adventures while

its moody hill continually attract walkers, no matter the weather

Geological wonders such as the limestone spectacles of Malham Cove and Gordale Scar make it

perhaps the most beautiful part of the British Isles

Loire Valley, France

Chateau de Chambord and Chateau de Chenonceau are the most famous, filled with classic

viewing towers, formal gardens and boating lakes.

Throw in a tour of its graperies, where some of the world's finest wines are produced, and its

glamour is impossible to ignore.

56. According to the passage, the best destinations in Europe are _____.

A. historic cities and Mediterranean beaches

B. known to people around the world

B

A widely-used gas that is currently produced from fossil fuels can instead be made by an artificial

leaf that uses only sunlight, carbon dioxide and water, and which could eventually be used to develop a

sustainable liquid fuel alternative to petrol.

The carbon-neutral (

碳中和

) device sets a new standard in the field of solar fuels, after researchers

at the University of Cambridge demonstrated that it can directly produce the gas---called syngas (

合成

气

) ---in a sustainable and simple way.

Rather than running on fossil fuels, the artificial leaf is powered by sunlight, although it still works

efficiently on cloudy and overcast days. And unlike the current industrial processes for producing

syngas, the leaf does not release any additional carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. The results are

reported in the journal Nature Materials.

Syngas is currently made from a mixture of hydrogen and carbon monoxide (-

氧化碳

)

，< /p>

and is used

to produce a range of products, such as fuels, medicines, plastics and fertilizers:

“You may not have heard of syngas itself but every day, you consume products that were created

using it. Being able to produce it sustainably would be a critical step in closing the global carbon cycle

and establishing a sustainable chemical and fuel industry,

from Cambridge's Department of Chemistry, who has spent seven years working towards this goal.

The device Reisner and his colleagues produced is inspired by photosynthesis--- the natural

process by which plants use the energy from sunlight to turn carbon dioxide into food.

On the artificial leaf, two light absorbers, similar to the molecules in plants that harvest sunlight,

are combined with a catalyst (

催化剂

) made from the naturally abundant element cobalt (

钴

).

When the device is dipped in water, one light absorber uses the catalyst to produce oxygen: The

other carries out the chemical reaction that reduces carbon dioxide and water into carbon monoxide and

hydrogen, forming the syngas mixture.

As an added bonus, the researchers discovered that their light absorbers work even under the low

levels of sunlight on a rainy or overcast day.

The process during the summer months,” said PhD student Virgil Andrei, first author of the paper. “You

could use it from dawn until dusk. anywhere n the world.

58. With the artificial leaf, we can _____.

A. produce syngas in a sustainable and simple way

B. prevent carbon dioxide from being release into the atmosphere

C. make products like medicines, plastics and fertilizers out of fossil fuels

D. harvest abundant sunlight through petrol and close he global carbon cycle

59. For the syngas mixture to be formed, we might as well _____.

A. get rid of one light absorber

B. block the contact with sunlight

C. provide a special catalyst

D. keep the artificial leaf far away from water

60. What can we learn from what PhD student Virgil Andrei said?

A. Syngas has already been in widespread use around the world.

B. The artificial leaf is powered by fossil fuels rather than sunlight.

C. The artificial leaf doesn't depend too much on the weather or location.

D. Syngas is currently made from a mixture of hydrogen and carbon monoxide.

For some people, higher education is not just a goal in life, but also an expectation. In the United

States, if your parents attended a college or university, there is a good chance that you will, too. Even if

your parents did not go to college, you still have a good chance of completing higher education if your

family is wealthy.

But your chances are reduced if you come from a needy family, a community with limited

educational resources or you simply have no one to follow as an example.

Helping those in need is one of the main ideas behind a strategy of behavioral science called nudge

theory or nudging. Nudging is a way of changing people's behavior through indirect suggestion and by

supporting positive actions.

A growing number of U.S. colleges and universities look to nudging as way to support poor,

minority and first-generation students, They also are using it to increase overall graduation rates. Two

common forms of nudging are emails to students and text messages to their mobile phones. Schools and

高三英语

other educational organizations keep in contact with students this way, offering advice and help when

needed.

However, Alejandra Acosta---a higher education policy expert at New America

一

notes that there

are several qualities a nudge campaign must possess in order to be successful.

Acosta says messages must be timely, meaning they reach college students well before the date by

which a student is required to take action. Additionally nudges should be written clearly and provide as

much information as possible. If students start to struggle in class, school officials should not just

message them, saying they should seek academic support. The message should give information about

what kinds of support the college or university offers and exactly how the student can make use of them.

That is why nudges should possess interactive qualities, Acosta says. For example, students should be

able to ask questions of school officials or be directed to a website for more information. In addition,

colleges and universities must ensure their support services are in place and working as best they can.

When nudges work, they can do a lot of good. In 2018, a nonprofit group launched a nudging

campaign at four U.S. community colleges. They worked with nearly 10.000 first- year students at three

such colleges in Ohio and one in Virginia. A recent study found that older and minority students who

agreed to receive these nudges were 16 to 20 percent more likely to continue into their second year than

those who did not.

61. Who is most likely to receive and complete higher education according to the passage?

A. Tony, whose father is the only bread-winner in the family.

B. Jimmy, whose mother is a worker in a small factory.

C. Betty, whose grandmother is a housemaid of a famous university professor.

D. Cathy, whose parents failed to attend college but succeeded in starting a big company.

62. What can we know about nudging?

A. It is anchored in psychological science.

B. It is a way to improve people s mind.

C. It offers concrete and direct advice.

D. It helps students via emails and text messages.

63. Which adjectives can be used to describe ideal message qualities of nudging?

A. Timely, practical and interactive.

B. Timely, interactive and sustainable.

C. Immediate, authentic and consistent.

D. Immediate, interactive and permanent

64. What is the passage mainly talking about?

A. The problem with higher education.

B. A way for colleges to support students.

C. The popularity of nudging campaign.

D. A national campaign dealing with poverty.

Liu, the farmer, sat! at the door of his one-room house. It was a warm evening in late February, and

in his thin body he felt the coming of spring How he knew that the time had now come when life began

to move in the soil? He could not have told himself. Most of al, in ay other year than this he might

have pointed to his wheat fields where he panted wheat in the winter when he land was not needed for

rice and where, when spring was moving into summer, he pated the good rice for rice was his chief

crop. Bu the land told nothing his year. There was no wheat on it, for the flood had covered it long

after wheat should have been planted, and it lay there cracked and like clay but newly dried.

Well, on such a day as this, if he had his buffalo (

水牛

) and his plow (

犁

) as he had always had in

other years, he would have gone out and plowed up that cracked soil. He ached to plow it up and make

it look like a field again, yes, even though he had not so much as one seed to put in it. But he had no

buffalo. If anyone had told him that he would eat his own water buffalo that plowed the good land to

him; he would have called that man

idiot

. Yet it was what he had done. He had eaten his own water

buffalo, he and his wife and his parents and his four children, they had all eaten the buffalo together.

But what else could they do on that dark winter ’s day when the last of their store of grain was gone,

when the trees were cut and sold, when he had sold everything, even the little they had saved from the

flood, and there was nothing left except the shabby house they had and the worm clothes they wore? Was

there sense in removing the coat from one's back to feed one's belly? On that day when he had seen the

faces of his old parents set as though dead, on that day when he had heard the crying of his children and

seen his little daughter dying. such a despair had seized him as made him like a man without his reason,

so that he had gathered all his strength and he had done what he said he never would; he had taken the

kitchen knife and gone out and killed his own beast. When he did it, even in his despair, he screamed,

for it was as though he killed his own brother. To him it was the last sacrifice.

___(68)__ It would have taken them all except that in the great pools lying everywhere, which

were left from the flood, there were shrimps (

小虾

), and these they had eaten raw and were still eating,
