My passion for the field of dietetics(营养学) started at a very young age. Ever since I can remember, I have
been dreaming of becoming a pastry chef.
I grew up being part of various sports teams. As I grew older, I noticed how food influenced my performance as
an athlete. I started reading more about nutrition and signed up for an introductory nutrition course during my first
year of college.
However, I noticed when I entered my dietetics classes, that I looked quite different from most students. I was
the only ethnically diverse student in my classes.
My mom was born in Austria and my father in Iran. They met in Austria and moved to the U. S. before my
brother and I were born. They exposed us to their own traditional cultural foods, and I grew up eating a fusion of
Iranian and Austrian dishes.
I remember never having a taste for school cafeteria food, so I always requested my mom pack me lunch. She
would pack me leftovers from dinner, such as a kuku sabzi, a Persian egg and herb frittata, or schnitzel with
dartoffelsalat, a customary Austrian dish of fried breaded chicken. At times, I felt embarrassed about my meals, and
would hide these from my peers to avoid the horrible question of, “Ew, what is that?”However, over time, and once I
became a qualified RD(注册营养师), I realized my unique background allowed me to connect more deeply with
others from different cultures.
I encouraged my clients(客户) to share what they grew up cating and what foods were customary to their
unique upbringing. I developed nutrition recommendations for my clients that included traditional staples from their
heritage culture. These experiences and my dual heritage background empowered me to encourage my clients and
other RDs to proudly share their unique cultural foods, to stop feeling embarrassed, but instead embrace our
differences and increase cultural awareness in the field of dietetics.
24.What led the author to take the nutrition course in his college?
A.His dream of being a pastry chef as a child. B.His poverty in essential nutrition for health.
C.His thirst for dietetics knowledge all his life. D.His awareness of the influence of food on health.
25.What is Paragraph 4 mainly about?
A.The author’s favorite dishes. B.The author’s mixed identities.
C.The author’s memory of his parents. D.The author’s culture tendency.
26.Why was the author afraid of being questioned about his meals?
A.His meals were supplied free by his school. B.His meals looked strange from his school’s.
C.His meals were most likely to be bad to taste. D.His meals took his Mom much time to make.
27.What is the author’s purpose in writing the text?
A.To criticize people’s cultural prejudice. B.To share his unique growth experiences.
C.To encourage embracing cultural diversity. D.To reveal his complex family composition.

Waste heat is a worldwide energy problem most people have probably never heard about. Every machine and
power station, even renewable energy like wind and solar, creates heat that is simply lost in the atmosphere.
Thankfully, scientists and engineers are devoted to capturing heat and transforming it into useful electricity.
Thermophotovoltaic devices(热光电设备) are one promising way to use this waste heat. University of
Michigan engineers have created a precisely machined thermophotovoltaic cell that could be used to generate
electricity from surplus renewable power. The cells would use heat stored in molten salt and turn it into electricity on
demand, in a form that is much cheaper than batteries, say its creators.
One of the factors important to any device’s thermoelectric efficiency is its material. If higher electrical energy
can be created with smaller temperature differences, then the materials are said to have a high ZT value. And a new
material created by scientists in Vienna has broken the ZT value world record.
Any new thermoelectric material has to have a distinct advantage, and research is identifying a number of
promising products. Pyroelectric films(热电薄膜) are aimed at waste heat emitted at less than 100 degrees Celsius
(212 F) and can generate electricity when a material is either heated or cooled.
Low-temperature generation includes computers and cars, making pyroelectrics particularly useful for squeezing
more energy out of electronic systems.
Another relative advantage is inexpensive materials. More abundant elements like tin, selenium, and magnesium
are cheap and abundant, with high ZT values when combined in the right way. Their use could lead to greener car
engines and industrial facilities.
And when it comes to personal electronics, thermoelectrics could eventually see off traditional charging
hardware. Chinese researchers have built a wristband that gathers body heat to power a LED and may be able to
power smartwatches or other mobile devices in the future.
28.Where is waste heat probably from?
A.Running cars. B.Burning heaters. C.The shining moon. D.Living plants.
29.What can be learned about thermoelectric materials?
A.They are a renewable power. B.They can produce waste heat.
C.They help capture waste heat. D.They have similar ZT values.
30.What is the author’s attitude to thermoelectrics’ future?
A.Doubtful. B.Hopeful. C.Cautious. D.Neutral.
31.Which column does this text probably come from?
A.Health. B.Education. C.Nature. D.Science.
D
Not all birds sing, but those that do—some several thousand species—do it a lot. All over the world, as soon as
light filters over the horizon, songbirds start singing. They sing to defend their territory and to impress potential
mates.
“Why birds sing is relatively well-answered,” says Iris Adam, a behavioral neuroscientist at the University of
Southern Denmark. The big question for her was this: Why do birds sing so much? “For some reason,” Adam says,
birds have “a crazy drive to sing.” This means hours every day for some species, and that takes a lot of energy. Plus,
singing can be dangerous.
“As soon as you sing, you reveal yourself,” she says. “Like, where you are, that you even exist, where your
territory is —all of that immediately is out in the open for predators, for everybody.”
In a new study published in the journal Nature Communications, Adam and her colleagues offer a new
explanation for why birds take that risk. They suggest that songbirds may not have much choice. They may have to
sing a lot every day to give their vocal muscles the regular exercise they need to produce top-quality song.
These findings could be related to human voice s too. “If you apply the bird results to the humans,” says Adam,
“anytime you stop speaking, for whatever reason, you might experience a loss in vocal performance.”
To figure out whether the muscles that produce birdsong require daily exercise, Adam designed a series of
experiments on zebra finches —little Australian songbirds with striped heads and a bloom of orange on their cheeks.
Through these experiments. Adam’s conclusion is that “songbirds need to exercise their vocal muscles to
produce top-performance song. If they don’t sing, they lose performance, their vocalizations get less attractive to
females—and that’s bad.”
This may help explain songbirds’ constant singing. It’s a kind of daily vocal practice to keep their instruments in
tip-top shape. It’s a good rule to live by, whether you’re a bird or a human—practice makes perfect, at least when it
comes to singing one’s heart out.
32.What does Iris Adam try to figure out?
A.Why all the birds don’t sing. B.Why songbirds sing so well.
C.Why songbirds sing so much. D.Why birds have vocal muscles.
33.What do the underlined words “that risk” in Paragraph 4 probably mean?
A.Defending territory. B.Impressing partners. C.Singing all to death. D.Threatening lives.
34.Which of the following agrees with Adam’s experiment conclusion?
A.Regular singing helps to exercise songbirds’ vocal muscles.
B.Songbirds have to sing their heart out to win their partners.
C.Zebra finches are born to have excellent vocal instruments.
D.Good vocal muscles are more attractive to female songbirds.
35.What can be the best title for the text?
A.A New Study of Songbirds B.The Way That Songbirds Sing
C.Practice Makes a Perfect Song D.The Reason Why Birds Sing Much

How do we stay motivated once we have committed ourselves to action? 36 Here are some tips to help us
stay motivated.
Have self-belief
When you are faced with a setback, don’t just let it defeat you. Remember that you have already overcome other
obstacles. 37 Believing in your capacity for success is a brilliant motivator. You know you can solve the
problem facing you because you have done it before.
Setting goals
38 The first step to achieving a dream is to turn it into a series of goals. A long-termgoal will be the
ultimate dream —let’s say, setting up a new business. Short-term and medium-term goals will be the stages on the
road to the final goal.
Happiness is a choice
Don’t let problems, difficulties, or setbacks get you down. They are temporary, and with a bit of effort and
organization, they will be solved. Choose to stay happy, to be contented, and motivated. Remember that happiness
should not be a final goal. 39
Keep your motives in mind
Periodically, it is good to step back and take a critical look at what you are doing and why. This will help you to
see whether your motives are the same as they were at the start of your venture. 40 Doing something for the
wrong motives, especially those that fall outside the law, can be a source of much worry and certainly will lead to
motivation being affected.
A.You’ll be easier to work with.
B.Self-motivation requires effort.
C.It must be the way you lead your life.
D.Believe in yourself and your abilities.
E.Don’t let motives slip after your failure.
F.Our dreams are usually a bit uncertain and unclear.
G.Motives can change not always for the right reasons.

Last weekend, I went for a jog in the park near my house. It was a beautiful sunny day, with a gentle breeze
blowing. As I started running, I felt all the stress and worries from study gradually melt away. The rhythm of my
breathing and the sound of my footsteps created a soothing pace. I enjoyed the feeling of my heart pumping and the
sweat on my forehead. With each step, I connected with nature, feeling the earth under my feet.
It was a refreshing experience that left me feeling energized. Let’s enjoy the benefits of jogging.
