2、 阅读下面短文,在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。
Sometimes referred to as the Thailand Water Festival, Songkran is an annual event that marks the (begin) of the Thai New Year. It's the (large) celebration throughout the whole country.
The festival kicks off April 13 and usually lasts three days though festivities can start early or end later in some cities. The holiday's main focus is about moving forward — in fact, the word Songkran comes from a phrase in Sanskrit language that means "passage of the sun".
Water plays a major role in the festival. (symbolical) it washes away the previous year so people can get ready for the next one.
Many families wake up early during Songkran and visit Buddhist temples, they bring offerings such as food and listen to monks as they preach. People sprinkle clean or scented water over statues of Buddha to represent purification and good fortune. Younger (visit) also pour water on the hands of elderly relatives and friends (show) their respect and ask for blessings in the coming year.
Honoring family traditions and (religion) practices are important, but so is having some fun. Outside, Songkran (celebrate) with street parties featuring loud music and a giant friendly water fight!

"That's when I found Southern New Hampshire University, which is a wonderful school. I just loved every minute of it."
Four years later, on December 13, 2022, Donovan graduated from Southern New Hampshire University with a master's 4 in creative writing.
Donovan said the university heard she was graduating when her son called the school to 5 a frame for her diploma as a Christmas present. 6 , the school decided to send more than just a framed diploma, including a cap and gown, cupcakes, balloons and university spirit wear (印有大学精神的服装).
When she was young, Donovan's mother called her "Brilliant". She started first grade at the age of 4 and graduated high school by 16. The family couldn't 7 college, but she was able to take some post-graduate classes for free at her high school.
Donavan always wanted a 8 education, but marriage, babies and a busy life 9 things a bit. But she never gave up on her dream.
"I'm a goal-seeker," she said. "And it was a goal, and I10 it. It's a dream come true, really." Now, Donovan said she is using her new degree to write a novel as well as an autobiography.
"Well, I waited 60 years to 11 my dream. So I hope others don't have to wait that long," said Donovan, adding that her autobiography will be about 12 the "roadblocks" of life.
Donovan, who has 10 grandchildren and nine great-grandchildren, said the most important thing she's learned in life is to be a "13 learner".

5 Proven Ways to Improve Your Concentration
We're all suffering from poorer concentration nowadays. Here are some simple habits to try.
Minimize distraction.
Work in a different room if you can. If you find yourself sidetracked (转移目标) by digital devices, turn off notifications (通知) and train yourself to check them at set intervals. Set a timer.
_
Whether it's music, white noise or even silence, you might find there's a particular sound that helps you maintain your attention. This enhances alpha waves—brain waves that promote relaxation and are thought to play a role in cognition (认知) and, according to a small 2015 American study, make you more creative.
Focus on the right foods.
You might get help from certain so-called "brain foods". One of the best ways to keep your brain fit is to eat a healthy diet.
Move your body.
When you exercise, your heart rate increases, causing your body to release a protein called brain-derived neurotrophic factor, or BDNF, which aids nerve cell growth.
Sleep well.
Who doesn't suffer from brain fog after a bad night? Everyone needs different amounts of shuteye but aiming for seven to nine hours is considered the ideal.
A. Structure your life.
B. Find the right sound.
C. These include fish, nuts, blueberries and dark chocolate.
D. This is important for concentration, memory and learning.
E. But there are ways you can improve your focus and get stuff done.
F. But even news platforms, and emails can be highly attention sapping.
G. Removing yourself from people and devices will allow you to concentrate better.

Parts of East Asia could see "rivers in the sky" form due to climate change, bringing record-breaking levels of rainfall with them, a new study has revealed.
The team, from the University of Tsukuba, Japan, have already seen clear signs of global warming hitting parts of the country, so they wanted to see how bad things could get. "It's been becoming more and more clear that global warming means more than just warmer temperatures," they wrote.
One particularly-damaging extreme weather event is an increase in rainfall to unexpected and unprecedented (前所未有的) levels, which can result in flooding. To help predict rainfall events, researchers looked to one of the causes — the interaction of atmospheric rivers with mountain ranges.
"As the name suggests, atmospheric rivers are long, narrow bands of concentrated water vapour flowing through the atmosphere," the team explained. "When one of these bands meets a barrier, such as a mountain range, it can produce extreme levels of rainfall or snowfall."
Parts of East Asia have been subjected to (遭受) an increasing number of damaging, extreme weather events over the past decade.
To understand the impact, the team used high-resolution global atmospheric circulations model simulations (模拟) that virtually re-create the conditions in the atmosphere. They then looked at other regional climate models, comparing simulations based on real, meteorological data (气象数据) from 1951 to 2010 to predictions for 2090.
Authors used the climate scenario that would result in 4℃ of warming, compared to preindustrial levels — which is significantly more than 2℃ target set as part of Paris Climate Agreement.
First author, Professor Yoichi Kamae, said that their simulations predict strengthened water vapour transport, as well as increased rainfall at unprecedented levels. In simulations the greatest amounts of atmospheric river-related rainfall occurred on the southern and western slopes of mountains in East Asia, including in Japan, the Korean Peninsula, and northeastern China. They had to limit the study to East Asia due to computer time and processing limitations, but predict it would apply to other regions around the world.
(1)、What's the possible consequence of the global warming?A、It contributes to polluted air. B、It leads to hot and rainy climate. C、It only results in the rise of temperature. D、It causes the destruction of more species.(2)、The author wrote Paragraph 4 to ____.A、describe the new study B、introduce atmospheric rivers C、analyze the cause of rainfallD warn people of global warming
(3)、How is the research carried to know the effect?A、By comparison. B、By discussion. C、By examples. D、By explanation(4)、What's the attitude of Professor Yoichi Kamae toward their simulations?A、They are risky. B、They are valueless. C、They are perfect. D、They are convincing. -

People who keep chickens as pets or barnyard animals tend to be quite passionate about them. Similar to those who keep cats and dogs as animal friends, chicken owners love to spoil their little ones. If that means building tiny amusement parks to keep them happy, then that's exactly what they will do.
Chickens have more personality than many people give them credit for. Like humans, chickens love to have fun, explore, and just kind of check stuff out.
What happens if chickens get bored?
Bored chickens tend to engage in bad behaviors. These can include pecking at and fighting with one another and pulling out each other's feathers.
Part of keeping and caring for chickens (or any animal for that matter) includes making sure they have everything they need to be happy. That includes entertainment and things to keep their days interesting.
One method is to hang up a piece of cabbage. Not only does this keep the chickens entertained, but it also gives them a healthy source of nourishment.
There is another fun toy you can build for your chickens, and all you need is some old bicycle tires. Chicken merry-go-rounds are about to become all the rage (风靡一时) in chicken society. To do this, all you need to do is remove the wheel from a bike. Then lay the wheel out over top something so the chickens are able to spin and ride on top. The chickens seem to know how to jump right on and go for a ride. They might not react like a human on a rollercoaster (过山车), but their behavior tends to show it is an enjoyable experience for them. The wheels can be spread out through your garden, backyard, or wherever your chickens like to roam. They help make their days more interesting, fun, and unique!
(1)、What's the purpose of hanging up a piece of cabbage?A、To feed chickens. B、To train chickens. C、To amuse chickens. D、To punish chickens.(2)、What does the word underlined in the last paragraph mean?A、Hatch. B、Rest. C、Gather. D、Wander.(3)、What can be a suitable title for the text?A、A New Pet B、Chickens' Beautiful Life C、People's Friends D、Harmonious Coexistence(4)、Where is the text probably from?A、A magazine. B、A biography. C、A diary. D、A novel. -

A schoolgirl has created a solar-powered backpack that filters out air pollution after being inspired by her asthmatic (患哮喘病的) mother.
Eleanor Woods, 12, from High Burton, Huddersfield, a town in West Yorkshire, northern England, entered the "Backpack to the Future" competition after her mother put the application form in her room. She went on to win the award for her innovative bag.
The "Backpack to the future" competition was launched to change perceptions (认知), encourage more diversity within engineering and to show children how they could combine an interest in fashion with a career in science, technology, engineering or math.
Powered by green energy from solar power and a dynamo — a machine that converts mechanical energy into electrical energy — the backpack filters polluted air before fanning out cleaner air nearby. "I have an air filter at home because my mum has mild asthma. My Breathe Better Backpack is all about keeping my friends, family and classmates safe using an air filter. It looks cool and will help get kids outside and fight off colds," Eleanor said. "The first thing that came to mind is that blue is one of my favorite colors and blue feels clean and the bubbles on the outside have a clean theme for breathing."
The pandemic spurred on Eleanor's awareness of how pollution affects a person's health and the spread of diseases. Spending a lot of time with her asthmatic mum over several lock downs gave the 12-year-old food for thought.
The schoolgirl added: "My generation is really aware of pollution, and we have lessons on it at school along with diseases spreading, and this is another reason I designed this, because it is getting much worse."
The young designer said she is becoming increasingly aware of the pollution that surrounds her, as she lives on a main road. Eleanor said: "I walk to school, next to the road, and can taste the petrol when buses come through."
Speaking after winning the competition, Eleanor said the impact of her backpack will be far-reaching. "If just a few people start using it, it could be really good for the planet," she said.
(1)、What was the "Backpack to the future" competition aimed at?A、Arousing curiosity in fashion. B、Increasing interest in engineering. C、Raising environmental awareness. D、Bonding interest with scientific practice.(2)、What does the fourth paragraph imply?A、The backpack is easy to carry. B、The backpack is blue with bubbles. C、The backpack is safe for kids indoors. D、The backpack is only powered by solar energy.(3)、What is the feature of Eleanor Woods' innovative bag?A、It is fashionable. B、It does good to health. C、It is energy-saving. D、It does harm to environment.(4)、Which word describes Eleanor Woods?A、Creative. B、Generous. C、Active D、Adventurous. -

Gene-edited Foods: Yes or No?
Gene-edited foods could soon be hitting supermarket shelves in the UK as the government announced plans to allow gene-edited foods to be sold unlabeled in British supermarkets, promoting an outcry from some consumers who claim they "should be given a choice".
GE foods are produced using the gene-editing tool CRISPR, which edits the existing DNA of a plant or animal. Unlike genetically modified food, gene-edited food contains no "foreign" DNA from other species. Scientists use a specialized protein to make tiny changes to the organism's DNA that could occur naturally or through selective breeding.
Environment Secretary George Eustice insisted that GE products would not need to be advertised as such because they are "fundamentally natural". However, Scotland and Wales both vowed to reject the move, and Britain's biggest supermarkets have so far refused to confirm if they will stock the foods.
Now let's take a closer look at some of the GE foods that could be on shelves in the UK as early as next year.
Vitamin D-boosted tomatoes
Tomatoes have been genetically engineered to produce more vitamin D. Researchers claim that the "super" fruits could help reduce the risk of developing diseases such as cancer, Parkinson's disease and dementia (痴呆).
Mushrooms that don't go brown
A variety of white button mushroom has been genetically edited so that it doesn't go brown when sliced. The researchers used CRISPR to remove a small piece of one gene that causes mushroom browning. Thus it can stay on supermarket shelves for longer, reducing food waste.
Bread that reduces cancer risk from burnt toast
Acrylamide (丙烯酰胺), a substance that can cause cancer, is created when bread is baked or toasted. Researchers have edited the genome (基因组) of wheat to reduce its production of the cancer-causing chemical.
Chickens resistant to bird flu
Researchers have used gene-editing techniques to grow chicken cells that are unable to replicate the bird flu virus in a lab. They edited a section of chicken DNA to make it resistant to the virus.
(1)、What can be known about GE foods?A、They edit their own existing DNA. B、They have foreign DNA from other species. C、They are completely as natural as ordinary foods. D、They are exactly the same as genetically modified foods.(2)、What's the right attitude toward GE foods?A、The UK government supports GE foods. B、George Eustice is against GE foods. C、Some consumers object to GE foods being sold. D、Britain's biggest supermarkets welcome GE foods.(3)、All of the following can help reduce the disease EXCEPT ____.A、vitamin D-boosted tomatoes' B、mushrooms that don't go brown C、bread that reduces cancer risk from burnt toast D、chickens resistant to bird flu -
