26、   At Mrs. Jennings’ handsome house, in London.

While waiting for dinner, Marianne Dashwood wrote a letter very quickly. Elinor Dashwood noticed a large “W” in the address. Marianne rang the bell to have someone post it immediately.

After dinner, there was a loud knock at the door. Marianne cried, “Oh, it’s Willoughby!” and seemed to throw herself into his arms when Colonel Brandon came in. She was so surprised that she immediately left the room.

Elinor made the tea for Colonel Brandon. He did not stay long.

The next morning, upon arriving at home after shopping, Marianne flew upstairs.

“No letter has been left here for me since we went out. How strange!” she said, in a low and disappointed voice.

About a week later, they saw Mr. Willoughby’s card on the table when they came in from morning’s drive. He had been there while the ladies were out.

“He will call again tomorrow,” said Elinor.

Marianne decided to stay behind the next morning, when the others went out. One look at her sister when they returned was enough to tell Elinor that Willoughby had not called.

Colonel Brandon came again to tea and had short private conversation with Elinor.

“Your sister’s engagement to Mr. Willoughby is very well known.”

“It cannot be well known,” returned Elinor, “for her own family does not know it.”

“I am sorry but I did not realize it was a secret. I came to ask, is everything decided? Is it possible to? Excuse me, Miss Dasnwood. I believe I have been wrong in saying so much.”

From these words Elinor was sure of something, yet she knew he could never be successful with her.

Over the next three or four days, Willoughby neither came nor wrote.

One evening at a party, Marianne suddenly saw Willoughby standing in deep conversation with a young woman, whose name was Grey, a rich lady.

“He is there! Oh! Why does he not look at me? Why can’t I speak to him?”

“Marianne,” said Elinor, “perhaps he hasn’t seen you yet.”

At last he came to them.

“Willoughby, what’s wrong? Did you not get my letters? Won’t you look at me?”

After a moment’s pause, he spoke. “I came by last Tuesday but unfortunately did not see you. My card was not lost, I hope.”

“Have you not received my notes?” cried Marianne. “Tell me, Willoughby; tell me, what’s the matter?”

Quiet and embarrassed, he said nothing more and turned quickly away to Miss Grey. Marianne, turning white and unable to stand, fell into her chair.

28、It’s never a real problem for us when the weather gets cold. We can put on more clothes, stay next to a fireplace, turn on the air conditioner or simply travel to a warmer city to spend the winter – people have many different ways of dealing with the cold.

  But things are not as easy for plants. Unlike humans, plants can’t move to escape the cold or generate heat ( 发热) to keep themselves warm. So how do they manage to survive the freezing winter?

  It turns out that plants have their own strategies （策略） too, said a study published on Dec 22 in the journal Nature.

  According to researcher Amy Zanne of George Washington University, US, the cold is a big challenge for plants. Their living tissues （活组织） can be damaged when they freeze. “It’s like a plant’s equivalent to frostbite ( 相当于冻疮),” Zanne told Science Daily. Also, the process of freezing and thawing  (解冻) can cause air bubbles （气泡） to form in the plant’s water transport system. “If enough of these air bubbles come together as water thaws they can block the flow of water from the roots to the leaves and kill the plant,” she explained.

  To live through cold weather, plants have developed three traits （特性） , according to the study. Some plants, such as oak trees（橡树）, avoid freezing damage by dropping their leaves before the winter chill sets in – effectively shutting off the flow of water between roots and leaves – and growing new leaves and water transport cells when the warm spring returns.

  Other plants, pine trees（松树） for example, protect themselves by narrowing their water transport cells, which makes it easier for cells to travel among air bubbles.

  The third strategy is also the most extreme – some plants die on the ground in winter and start growing as new plants from seeds when conditions get warmer.

  However, the study also found that these smart strategies were developed very slowly – over millions

of years of evolution （ 进化）. This leads scientists to worry that plants may not be able to deal with human-caused climate change, which has only started occurring over the past few decades.

  Scientists are hoping that this study can help people find possible ways to save plants from the threat

of climate change.

【1】What is the article mainly about?

A. Why plants are not afraid of the winter chill.

B. The ways that plants survive cold weather.

C. Changes in plants’ water transport system in winter.

D. How plants evolve to keep up with climate change.

【2】According to the article, if a plant freezes in the winter, ______.

A. it produces more living tissues to stay alive

B. its leaves quickly fall out and its roots begin to die

C. lots of air bubbles form in its water transport system

D. its water transport system could be blocked in the spring

【3】What are scientists worried about when it comes to plants according to the article?

A. Plants may not be able to adapt to the increasingly cold climate.

B. Human activities might have a great impact on the pace of plants’ evolution.

C. Plants may not be able to evolve fast enough to adapt to human-caused climate change.

D. The strategies plants develop are not good enough to protect them against cold.

29、   As an internet influencer, there seems to be nothing special about Miquela Sousa. The 19-year-old lives in Los Angeles, US, posts pictures of herself sporting fashionable looks, and has just made her way into the March edition of Vogue magazine. But Miquela isn’t real – she is an electronic character.

Her fans don’t seem to mind – she has 855,000 followers on US social networking platform Instagram. And her first single Not Mine – yes, she “sings” too – also reached No 8 on music streaming (流媒体) platform Spotify last August.

It’s kind of curious that in a time when authenticity (真实性) and “being real” are valued more than ever, “fake” celebrities like Miquela are appreciated and seen as icons (偶像).

Perhaps the reason for Miquela’s popularity lies behind the fame of a similar star, Hatsune Miku. This 16-year-old animated(动画的) singer from Japan has held singing concerts not only in her home country but also in the US and China.

Even though Hatsune’s no more than a 3-D figure projected (投射) onto the stage, her fans are more than willing to pay to actually see her “in person”, because to them, she’s better than human singers. “She’s rather more like a goddess: She has human parts, but she transcends human limitations. She’s the great post-human pop star,” wrote reporter James Verini on Wired magazine.

Critics may say that 3-D stars could never replace humans, but when it comes to being authentic, are humans really the best example of how to do it?

Most of us edit our photos before posting them online, and we tend to create a fantasy that we’re living a perfect life by letting people only see the brighter side of it.

“Miquela is no less real to me than any other internet stranger with whom I’ve interacted,” wrote reporter Leora Yashari on the website Nylon. “Her existence in itself represents a new breed (种类) of influencer – someone who is breaking the boundaries of what is real and what is fake.”

【1】What is the best title of the passage ?

A.A character with animated talents. B.A computer-generated role model.

C.A new sports star with fashionable looks. D.An experienced life-like dancer.

【2】What does the word “ transcend” in paragraph 5 means？

A.take over B.look like C.go beyond D.hold up

【3】What is the purpose of the author when he mentioned Hatsune Miku?

A.To show the similarities 3-D stars share. B.To make a comparison with Miquela Sousa.

C.To explain why 3-D stars are well received. D.To stress how 3-D stars go beyond human limitations.

【4】What message does the passage agree with ?

A.Animated heroes could match the authenticity of humans one day.

B.3-D stars are not as real as human celebrities.

C.Human celebrities have greater influence than animated ones.

D.3-D icons can also be as influential and authentic as humans’.
