21、Cala didn’t like us. Any of us. We didn’t do anything to offend her and she didn’t know us but that didn’t matter; she still didn’t like us.

As new teachers in the Emirati school, we Westerners greeted her every day. She ignored us. She came into our rooms and bypassed us as she shook hands with all the non-Westerners. Whenever we saw her, she avoided eye contact with us. Eventually, we stopped trying to befriend her.

I wouldn’t say her nationality but her friends had been fired from the school. We had been employed in their places and that was enough for her to have nothing to do with us.

Well after 16 months in the school we had a secret friend gifting. To my surprise, I drew her name from the glass jar and that meant she was my secret friend. My role was to buy her a gift and say something about her when we publicly acknowledged who our secret friend was.

I decided to gift her a coloured bangle（手镯）. I added a postcard and wrote “Love and Blessings, Rose Marie.

Then came the day. We all gathered in the meeting room. When you gave your gift, you said a few kind words about your secret friend and passed the gift to her. What could I say? Everyone knew she didn’t like the Westerners. She taught music in the school so I said “My secret friend is someone who brings music to our ears every day.” She came forward with a huge warm smile. She hugged me and kissed me on both cheeks and accepted my gift.

Since then, she smiles often. We hug and shake hands when we meet. I have seen her wear my gift several times and I am so pleased.

22、In this influential work about the surprising divide between children and the outdoors, child supporter expert Richard Louv directly links the lack of nature in the lives of today’s wired generation---he calls it nature-deficit(赤字)----to some of the most disturbing childhood trends, such as the rises in obesity, attention disorders, and depression.

Last Child in the Woods is the first book to bring together a new and growing body of research indicating that direct exposure to nature is essential for healthy childhood development and for the physical and emotional health of children and adults.

23、   Every superhero, no matter how small, needs a cape (披风). That was Robyn Rosenberger’s motivation when she started sewing superhero capes for kids with cancer, heart defects, and other serious diseases.

It all began when she was making a cape as a birthday present for her nephew. Rosenberger heard of a girl named Brenna who was battling a potentially deadly skin condition called harlequin ichthyosis (丑角样鱼鳞病). Anyone going through what she was going through had to be tough. “I had an aha moment,” Rosenberger says. “Brenna was a superhero! She needed a cape.”

So Rosenberger sent her one, and Brenna’s mother was delighted. Rosenberger found ten more kids online and sent out ten more capes. Before long, she quit her job at a software company to dedicate herself full-time to tinysuperheroes.com, a website where people can buy handmade capes for brave kids facing illness and disability.

Since 2013, Rosenberger and her small paid staff have sent more than 12, 000 handmade capes to kids in all 50 states and 15 other countries. The capes come in pink, blue, purple, or red and can be decorated with the child’s initials or specialized patches, including a heart, a rocket, or a lightning bolt. One recipient was eight-month-old Gabe, who was born with imperfection, which causes distinct facial features. Rosenberger sent him a red cape with a bright yellow G in the center. It was a hit. Gabe is now a fixture on the company’s social media posts. “The Tiny Superhero community has been a wonderful connection to have,” says Gabe’s mom, Kate Glocke. In fact, two years later, “we still bring Gabe’s cape with us to every hospital appointment.”

【1】Why did Rosenberger start sewing superhero capes for kids?

A．Because she was good at sewing superhero capes.

B．Because she wanted to show bravery of the kids.

C．Because she planned to give kids superhero capes as gifts.

D．Because she thought their parents couldn’t afford capes.

【2】What do we know about Rosenberger and her small paid staff?

A．They made over 12, 000 handmade capes each year.

B．They met kids from 50 states and 15 other countries.

C．They provided capes in different colors and styles.

D．They had made a lot of money by selling capes.

【3】What words can be used to describe Rosenberger?

A．Hardworking and wealthy.

B．Warm-hearted and loving.

C．Strong-willed and ambitious.

D．Talkative and athletic.

【4】What is the purpose of this text?

A．To advertise a website selling handmade capes

B．To call on more people to help the sick kids.

C．To describe different superhero capes.

D．To introduce a kind woman helping sick kids.

24、   The world is literally a greener place than it was 20 years ago, and data from NASA satellites has revealed a source for much of this new greening phenomenon: China and India. This new insight was made possible by a nearly 20­year­long data record from a NASA instrument orbiting the Earth on two satellites.

Taken all together, the greening of the planet over the last two decades represents an increase in leaf area on plants and trees equal to the area covered by all the Amazon rainforests. There are now more than two million square miles of extra green leaf area per year, compared to the early 2000s—a 5% increase.

“China and India account for one­third of the greening, but contain only 9% of the planet's land area covered in vegetation—a surprising finding, considering the common phenomenon of land degradation in populous countries from overuse, ” said Chi Chen, lead author of the study.

“This long­term data lets us dig deeper, ” said Rama Nemani, a co­author of the new work. “When the greening of the Earth was first observed, we thought it was due to a warmer, wetter climate and fertilisation from the added carbon dioxide(CO2) in the atmosphere, leading to more leaf growth in northern forests. Now, with the data that lets us understand the phenomenon at really small scales, we see that humans are also contributing.”

China's outsized contribution to the global greening trend comes in large part(42%) from programmes to conserve and expand forests. These were developed in an effort to reduce the effects of soil erosion, air pollution and climate change. Another 32% there—82% of the greening seen in India—comes from intensive growing of food crops. How the greening trend may change in the future depends on numerous factors, both on a global scale and the local human level. For example, increased food production in India is promoted by groundwater irrigation. If the groundwater is running out, this trend may change.

The researchers point out that the gain in greenness seen around the world and led by India and China does not offset the damage from loss of natural vegetation in tropical regions, such as Brazil and Indonesia. The consequences for sustainability and biodiversity in those ecosystems remain.

Nemani is pretty excited about the findings, and not just because the greener, the better. “Once people realise there's a problem, they tend to fix it, ” he said. “In the 70s and 80s in India and China, the situation around vegetation loss wasn't good; in the 90s, people realised it; and today things have improved. Humans are incredibly adaptable.”

【1】The Earth is getting greener mainly because of ________.

A．the expanding of leaf area in tropical countries

B．the determined efforts to preserve Amazon rainforests

C．the tree­planting programmes and intensive agriculture

D．a favourable climate and increased CO2 in the atmosphere

【2】Which of the following statements may the researchers agree with?

A．The greening trend in India will continue to go upwards.

B．More “greening” means better control of climate change.

C．Land overuse threatens the success in the greening on the Earth.

D．The sustainability in global ecosystems will be greatly improved.

【3】What does the underlined word “offset” in the last but one paragraph probably mean?

A．Prevent.

B．Survive.

C．Interrupt.

D．Balance.

【4】How does Nemani feel about the findings?

A．They are a positive indicator of overall human nature.

B．Their accuracy and reliability need to be further proved.

C．They undervalue humans' contribution to the environment.

D．Their significance for future research cannot be overemphasised.
