26、 New research suggests that dogs might be able to help save diseased citrus trees.

A group of scientists trained dogs to use their sense of smell to detect a crop disease called citrus-greening. The disease has affected orange, lemon and grapefruit trees in the American states of Florida, California and Texas.

The dogs can detect the disease weeks to years before it appears on tree leaves and roots, the researchers report. A study on their findings was published recently in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. The report says using dogs is also faster, less costly and more exact than having people collect hundreds of leaves for lab analysis.

Timothy Gottwald is a researcher with the U. S. Department of Agriculture and a co-writer of the study. He told The Associated Press,” This technology is thousands of years old-the dog's nose. We've just trained dogs to hunt new prey. ”

Citrus-greening is caused by a bacteria (细菌) that is spread by a tiny insect that feeds on the leaves and stems of citrus trees. Once a tree is infected(感染), there is no cure. The disease has also hurt citrus crops in Central and South America and Asia. In one experiment involving grapefruit trees in Texas, trained dogs were correct 95 percent of the time in telling the difference between newly infected trees and healthy ones. ”The earlier you detect a disease, the better chance you have at stopping an epidemic(流行病）by removing infected trees, ”Gottwald said.

Matteo Garbelotto studies plants at the University of California, Berkeley. He says the new research shows that dogs can detect an infection well before current methods. Garbelotto has been involved in similar research but had no part in the new study.

Laura Sims is a plant scientist with Louisiana Tech University. She praised the steps taken to find out if the dogs were detecting the bacteria itself or a plant's reaction to an infection. To do that, the researchers infected different kinds of unrelated plants with the bacteria in a laboratory. The dogs were still able to pick out the infected plants.

Gottwald said, “You've seen dogs working in airports, detecting drugs and explosives. Maybe soon you will see them working on more farms. ”

【1】According to the research, trained dogs can

A.help infected trees recover from diseases

B.recognize a crop disease in its early stage

C.cause fruit trees to grow faster than usual

D.reduce the cost of planting some fruit trees

【2】What does the underlined part “new prey” in Paragraph 4 refer to?

A.Infected plants. B.Fruit trees. C.Tiny insects. D.Favourite foods.

【3】Why did the researchers do experiments on unrelated plants?

A.To further prove the findings. B.To explore the plant diseases.

C.To present different opinions. D.To discover a plant's reactions.

【4】How does Gottwald feel about the future use of this new method?

A.Doubtful. B.Confident. C.Uninterested. D.Curious.

27、Do you ever wonder how the apple got from the tree to your hands? In most cases，apples travel a long way to get from where they were grown to the places where people buy them.

【1】 Apple growers have hundreds of trees. The farm workers pick the apples off the trees and put them into large bags or boxes. Workers on another part of the farm sort the apples by size and type. All the green Granny Smith apples go in one bin (大箱子). 【2】 Then the apples are placed in big，wooden boxes and loaded(装载)onto trucks.The trucks carry the boxes of apples off the farm.

【3】 But most apples arrive at one of many warehouses(仓库).In some warehouses，the apples are made into applesauce(苹果酱) or Juice.In other warehouses，the apples are washed,sorted，and put into bags or smaller boxes.

The warehouses sell the apples to stores all over the country. 【4】 They tell the warehouse how much of each kind of apples they want to buy.The warehouse then packs the orders of apples on to large trucks. 【5】 This keeps the apples fresh until they are sent to the stores.

When the trucks reach the stores，workers unload the orders.They count the boxes and check to make sure that the apples are in good condition.Finally，the workers place the apples on the store shelves.Customers choose the apples they want to buy.

Chen took her temperature and never forgot to wear a face mask every day. The protective clothing she wore when driving was hung on her balcony after work.

29、When a child is told he is "uncool", it can be very painful. He may say he doesn't care, and even act in ways that are opposite of cool on purpose. But ultimately, these are simply ways to handle sadness by pretending it's not there.

Helping a child feel better in school had to be careful. If you say, "Why are you worried about what other children think about you? It doesn't matter!" children know that it does matter. Instead, an active way may be best. You could say, "I'm going to do a couple of things for you to help you feel better in school."

If a boy is having trouble making friends, the teacher can help him. The teacher can arrange things so that he has chances to use his abilities to contribute to class projects. This is how the other children learn how to value his good qualities and to like him. A teacher can also raise a child's popularity in the group by showing that he values that child. It even helps to put him in a seat next to a very popular child, or let him be a partner with that child in activities, etc.

There are things that parents can do at home, too. Be friendly when your child brings others home to play. Encourage him to invite friends to meals and then serve the dishes they consider "super". When you plan trips, picnics, movies, and other shows, invite another child with whom your child wants to be friends.

What you can do is to give him a chance to join a group that may be shutting him out. Then, if he has good qualities, he can start to build real friendship of his own.

【1】A child who has been informed of being "uncool" may _____.

A. care nothing about it

B. develop a sense of anger

C. do something uncool purposely

D. pretend to get hurt very much

【2】A teacher can help an unpopular child by _____.

A. seeing the child as the teacher's favourite

B. asking the child to do something for partners

C. forcing other children to make friends with the child

D. offering the child chances to show his good qualities

【3】How can parents help their child fit in better?

A. By cooking delicious food for him.

B. By being kind to his schoolmates.

C. By forcing him to invite friends home.

D. By taking him to have picnics in the park.

【4】Which of the following is TRUE?

A. Children don't care about others' comments on them.

B. It's only a teacher's work to make children popular.

C. Parents should take their children out for picnic and shows more often.

D. Inviting children's friends to family activities is good for them to make friends.

31、Directions: Complete the following passage by using the words in the box. Each word can only be used once. Note that there is one word more than you need.

Scientists have proved what students have long suspected: Maths equations can actually trigger physical pain.

Regions of the brain linked with the experience of physical 【1】 were activated in those fearful of maths when they were presented with a tough equation, researchers have found. The higher a person’s anxiety of a maths task, the more it 【2】 activity in regions of their brain associated with visceral (内脏的) threat detection, and often the experience of pain itself.

However, the researchers say their study examines the pain response associated with anticipating an anxiety-provoking event, rather than the pain associated with a 【3】 event itself. A maths task itself is not painful but 【4】 the thought of it is highly unpleasant to certain people.

“Maths can be difficult, and for those with high levels of mathematics-anxiety (HMAs), math is associated with tension, apprehension (忧虑) and fear,” the researchers said in their paper titled. When Math Hurts. “【5】, this relation was not seen during math performance, 【6】 that it is not that math itself hurts, rather, the anticipation of math is painful. These results may also provide a potential neural mechanism to explain why (people with) HMAs tend to 【7】 math and math-related situations, which in turn can bias (使有偏见) (those with) high levels of mathematics-anxiety away from taking math classes or even entire math-related 【8】 paths. We provide the first neural 【9】 indicating the nature of the subjective experience of math-anxiety.

Other forms of psychological stress, such as social 【10】 or a traumatic break-up, can also elicit feeling of physical pain.”
