For the brave in the armed forces, being sent away from home for months at a time is just part

of the duty. However, it’s never an easy one to perform especially for those with children. So when I

found out I was going to be stationed in South Korea for a year, I was nervous about how my five

children, particu

larly my eldest daughter Abigail, would take the news since it meant I wouldn’t be

home to see her graduate from high school.

Incredibly, Abigail told me not to worry and even suggested we

live stream

the event among

family members when I leaked the news.

“We’ve been lucky you haven’t had to be sent abroad yet.

Anyway we can get connected through the Internet. See me on your phone on my spot. ” Abigail

said. She stepped into many of my roles when I was gone. I wanted to find a way to thank her and

3

show her how proud I was of her. I started planning the special surprise when my request to return

home a few weeks early to attend Abigail’s graduation ceremony was approved.

When my time in South Korea finally came to an end, I flew home, rented a car, and stayed in a

hotel. And on Abigail’s graduation day, I hid in an office behind the stage waiting until I heard my

daughter’s name called. I just kept thinking “Don’t cry. Don’t trip in your heels. Don’t fall over.” At

last! Abigail was up on stage. I slipped up behind her, whispered in her ear, and around she turned!

“I was just thinking, like, ‘You aren’t supposed to be here. What? What? How?’ It was the biggest

shock..

.

I’m

pretty

sure

my

dad

made

people

he

didn’t

even

know

cry.

Emotional

for

everyone,”

Abigail cried.

You know what followed:

Embraces, kisses, tears, laughs, flowers, wishes... aren’t they what a

family have in store?

24. What worried the author most?

A. His duty in South Korea.

C. His eldest daughter’s study.

B. His five children’s safety.

D. His absence from a big event.

25. What is the probable meaning of the underlined phrase “live stream”

？

A. Plan.

B. Celebrate.

B. Overjoyed.

C

Food

blogs,

celebrities,

and

nutritionists

all

advocate

the

benefits

of

eating organic

(

有机的

)

fruits and vegetables. But a new study published in Science Advances paints a more complex picture.

While organic produce is likely slightly healthier to eat and, in some ways, more sustainable to grow,

there are also

downsides

.

Organic fruits and vegetables typically cost more than conventional ones. To get a certificate as

organic, farmers must meet specific criteria, including growing produce without the use of genetic

engineering

and

chemical

inputs.

Without

these

methods,

the

growing

process

typically

requires

more labor, time, and money, a cost that is passed down to consumers.

It’s true that in many ways, organic is more sustainable than conventional farming. But when it

comes to environmental concerns such as greenhouse gas output and water loss, the comparison gets

complex. Organic farms produce less gas output per acreage. However, because they are barred from

using genetic engineering, pesticides (

杀虫剂

), and other methods that increase efficiency (

效率

),

organic farms also produce an estimated 19% to 25% less yield than conventional farms. While there

isn’t a whole lot research on the topic, the few studies that do exist suggest green gas output and

water loss might actually be higher on organic farms, on a per unit basis, says study author Verena

Seurfert.

C. Prepare.

D. Broadcast.

D. Satisfied.

26. How did Abigail feel when meeting her father?

A. Embarrassed.

C. Nervous.

27. What does the author mainly intend to express by telling the story?

A. A soldier, s personal sacrifice.

C. The meaning of family bond.

B. A father’s love for his family.

D. The way to plan a big surprise.

In

addition,

while

organic

produce

is

likely

more

nutritious

than

conventional

fruit

and

vegetables,

there’s

not

a

lot

of

evidence

to

support

the

claim

that

these

often

slight

differences

influence consumer health. The same is true for pesticide remainder. In developed countries, where

pesticide

use

is

tightly

regulated,

there’s

no

scientific

consensus

on

how

these

often

slight

differences influence human health.

Still, Seurfert stresses that if

you can afford to eat organic,

you should do so. Organic farms

provide

safer

work

environments

for

workers,

plus

they

support

great

biodiversity.

The

real

takeaway from her study is not that organic is bad but that the practice needs more study to increase

yield without lowering sustainability.

But

if

you

can’t

afford

to

buy

organic

produce,

don’t

stress

too

much,

particularly

from

a

nutritional perspective.

28. What does the underlined word “

downsides

” in Paragraph 1 most probably mean?

A. Dangers.

B. Drawbacks.

C. Benefits.

D. Differences.

29. Which key factor makes it hard to compare organic farming and conventional farming when it

comes to environmental concerns?

A. The yield.

B. The price.

C. The water loss.

D. The labor.

30. Which of the following will the author most probably agree with?

A. Farmers, work environment should be improved.

B. Organic produce should be made more efficiently.

C. It isn’t wise for consumers to buy organic products.

D. Pesticide remainder does no harm to people’s health.

31. In the author, s opinion, why should we support organic produce?

A. It’s environmentally friendly.

C. It helps keep the variety of plants.

Every ocean lover knows the dangers of getting caught in a rip current (

离岸流

). Experienced

swimmers

know

it

is

relatively

easy

to

escape

the

narrow

channel

of

the

fast

moving

water

by

floating

and

allowing

it

to

drag

you

further

into

the

ocean

or

by

swimming

alongside

the

shore.

However, inexperienced beachgoers often panic, and try to swim to land, placing themselves at risk

of drowning due to tiredness. According to the US National Ocean Service, the currents kill about

100 Americans each year and account for 80% of all lifeguard rescues. These scary statistics may

soon be a thing of the past, thanks to Clever Girl, a smart buoy (

浮标

) that warns swimmers of the

presence of deadly rip currents.

The smart device is the brainchild of Australian teenager Maddison King, who created Clever

Girl as a project for her Grade 12 Design and Technology class. The 18-year-old, who works as a

lifeguard during her spare time, came up with the brilliant idea after discovering that most children

were unable to detect rip currents.

D. It’s safer for consumers.
