In Colonial Days, farm families worked from sunrise to sunset and sometimes longer. People had little time for play. They did not have a chance to see other people as much as we do today. But sometimes they were able to turn hard work into good times and still visit with their neighbours.

It's a few weeks since both the United States and the European Union confirmed the hottest average global temperature ever recorded. Intense and unusual heat waves, along with fires, storms, and other extreme weather events, seemed to make 2023 the year when climate change became more disturbing.
Of course, climate change is more complicated than things simply getting hotter, but the overall warming of the earth is perhaps the most direct consequence of the carbon dioxide we have released (释放) into the atmosphere since the 19th century. What to do about this problem is the subject of this month's cover story, in which writer Sam Howe Verhovek and photographer Davide Monteleone take a closer look at carbon removal.
Ideas for how to remove carbon from the atmosphere and store or use it in some way have been around for a long time, but we've made little progress. Now we may be at the point where urgency, combined with technological advances, market demands, and creative vision, is making carbon removal a better choice for helping us manage the climate crisis.
Many environmentalists argue that carbon removal is a red herring(鲱鱼) that take our attention away from the need to dramatically reduce our emissions(排放). The first industrial revolution got us into this mess; maybe a second one can assist us with getting out of it.
(1)、What makes the year of 2023 more disturbing?A、The wildfire led to heavy forest loss. B、Various types of climate disaters occured frequently. C、The global temperature broke the historical record. D、Extreme weather caused a large number of death↵.(2)、What directly causes the warming of the earth?A、The rise of average global temperature. B、The technology of global carbon removal. C、The emission of carbon dioxide for a long time. D、The changes of complicate c climate in the late years.(3)、What's the author's attitude toward the progress of carbon removal?A、Unsatisfied. B、Unclear. C、Thrilled. D、Approving.(4)、Which of the following are some environmentalists most likely to support?A、Making carbon removal. B、Reducing carbon emission. C、Slowing down the industrial development. D、Enhancing the second industrial revolution. -

The career of food editor Liu Dahua has been built on good taste and described as a recipe for success. The 83 -year- old has visited thousands of restaurants and catering(餐饮) companies, talking to hundreds of chefs. Since 1998, as well as writing food articles, he has also been taking food photos.
In October, Liu published a book, a selection of articles about food companies and chefs in China. Five months later, on March 21, his second book, illustrating food through the lens, was released.
"If the first book is based on my eating experience, the new one is based on my photo shoots," Liu says. The book collects 136 dishes from more than 50 chefs. What is striking is that it not only collects dishes from master chefs, but also selects the cooking offerings of the profession's rising young stars.
The dishes are divided into three types: time-honored and classic, new and creative, and the exotic(异域的). Unlike most food books, which usually provide the recipe of each dish, in Liu's book, he simply records when and where he took the photo, who the chef was, and his comments on the dish.
The photos are selected from tens of thousands that Liu has taken over the years, but ones taken before 2000 were all captured on film and were not saved in any electronic form. The earliest photo selected for the book is a "duck pyramid(金字塔)" taken in 2003 in Beijing. The dish was created by Li Fengxin, who had, at the time, just been named chef at a Beijing branch of Quanjude, one of China's best-known roast duck chain restaurants.
(1)、From which section on a website should the passage probably be selected?A、Life Style. B、Science Research. C、Reading Club. D、Overseas Culture.(2)、What can you probably find Liu's first book?A、Images about food. B、Articles about many chefs. C、Cooking skills about food. D、Recipes of dishes.(3)、What's the main idea of the fourth paragraph?A、The popularity of the second book. B、The design style of the second book. C、The comments on the second book. D、The uniqueness of Liu's second book.(4)、What impresses readers most in the second book?A、The valuable old photos. B、The young star chefs. C、The varieties of classic dishes D、The author's eating experiences. -

My Father, the Family Man
This year, my seasonal depression took me deeperssion the past, and a new portrait of my father came into my mind. He was a sometimes difficult, always determined man.
In my early memories, I was sitting at the kitchen table listening to my father yelling(叫嚷)about his challenges as an Italian immigrant. Back then, I couldn't have known his pain as he struggled to find his footing in this new land.
"We left Italy to give you three girls more opportunities for a better life," he said. "But we'd had a shaky start. The apartment your aunt had secured for us fell through at the last minute. It went to someone without children. So the five of us moved into your aunt's living room."
Bills mounted up. "And then I saw your mother's face was as white as a sheet." He said bitterly but soon stared down at the table to compose himself. "And the baby was crying. I worried that the houseowner would come knocking on the door."
Dad jumped to the end of his story, "What more can I say? I went looking for a job. I found one."
Armed with a few English phrases and determination, he'd walked for miles in a city he didn't know, stopping at every hair salon, asking for a chance to show his skills as a hair stylist, his pro-fession and passion. That's what he'd been doing all day, supporting for his family.
Forty years later in Toronto, he sat at the table, asking if I thought he'd provided well for his family. I answered. His eyes watered. Mine did, too.
(1)、What did the author think of her father in the early years?A、The father left Italy for a better job. B、He was moved by his father's story. C、The father's early struggle was in vain. D、He didn't realize his father's difficulties.(2)、What does the underlined word "compose" probably mean in paragraph.4?A、Show off. B、Cheer up. C、Calm down. D、Make up.(3)、What can we learn from the passage?A、The father had a big family to support. B、The author's eyes watered for her childhood. C、The father and daughter misunderstood each other. D、The father learned to be a hair stylist in Toronto. -

16、 阅读短文,按照题目要求用英语回答问题。
It was a tough situation. At 8,700 meters above sea level, Zhang Hong and his team members faced a difficult decision. Based on the oxygen they had consumed, they might not have enough to reach the summit of Qomolangma. Should they press on or turn back?
Zhang's guide Chen Tao made a quick decision that he and the two photographers with the group should immediately withdraw and leave their oxygen tanks to Zhang to let him finish the climb to the summit of the mountain.
The wind was strong, and Zhang was terrified. The three Sherpa guides didn't speak Chinese and their English instructions to Zhang were muffled by the high wind. And there was additional difficulty for Zhang — he can't see.
To walk on a path was often hard for the Chinese mountaineer. And there was no actual path on the mountain. Zhang had to follow the guides' directions precisely on every single step. The guides told him in which direction to go and the length of each step. But one mistake could cost Zhang his life.
At first, Zhang didn't want to continue. But Chen told Zhang "if you don't continue, this may be the last chance you have to reach the top of Qomolangma, while I will still have more chances". There was no time left for 46-year-old Zhang to argue with Chen and Chen gave Zhang a gentle nudge to hurry him on.
Zhang continued his climb with one guide in front of him and two behind. After several more hours' climbing, the guide leading the way told Zhang that he was standing at the top of the mountain. Zhang was first visually impaired person from Asia ever to conquer the world's highest peak.
On the rock face of the mountain, Zhang etched his name alongside that of Erik Weihenmayer and Andy Holzer, who completed the feat in 2001 and 2017 respectively. They are the only three blind mountaineers to have climbed Qomolangma.
(1)、Why did Chen decide to withdraw while letting Zhang finish the climb?(no more than 10 words)(2)、How do you understand the underlined part in Paragraph 3? (no more than 10 words)(3)、What's the main idea of Paragraph 5? (no more than 10 words)(4)、What made Zhang different from other mountaineers who reached the summit of Qomolangma? (no more than 10 words)(5)、What's your attitude towards the "mountain" in your life? Please explain. (no more than 20 words) -
