That means warm soil, proper night temperatures and
10、no risk of a sudden reversion to winter.I no longer believe in settled weather. In the current age of climate confusion, a backup plan is always an essential part of a gardeners intention for an ideal tomato harvest.Where tomatoes are concerned, the best crop insurance is to root some extras from cu
11、ttings(剪枝). It can take a couple of months to grow garden-ready tomato plants from seed(种子), but cuttings can be ready to go in a few weeks. Yes, you could pick up some starts at a garden center, but its hard to find strong ones in good condition.Instead, buy one tomato plant, and turn it into many.
12、 Tomatoes root very quickly and easily. All you do is remove a tiny branch about 6 inches tall off the main stem(茎), carefully cut off all but the top two leaves, plant the tiny branch in a pot, and wait. Roots will emerge along the stem and new growth will soon appear if kept damp, warm and out of
13、direct sunlight.If you have never rooted stem cuttings before, you will have gained not only a tomato crop but also a skill that you can now apply to other plants in your garden, both edible and ornamental(装饰性的). Tomato relatives such as peppers and eggplants can be similarly rooted, as can many her
14、bs, especially those in the mint family. 21. The underlined word “reversion” in Paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to _. A. embarrassment B. punishmentC. returnD. temperature22. Why a backup plan is strongly suggested to guarantee an ideal tomato harvest? A. Because gardeners are fond of essential cl
15、imate confusion.B. Because the author no longer believes in weather forecast. C. Because the more plans there are, the more successful the harvest will be. D. Because the weather can be changeable unexpectedly.23. What is the correct order to root a tomato properly according to the passage? a. caref

But most people dont want to invest the time and energy to beat them.Now a new iPhone
18、app, Fixed, will take on the task of beating a ticket: suggesting reasons it might be wrong, gathering supporting evidence and submitting proper paperwork to get drivers out of them. If the driver beats the ticket, they pay Fixed 25of what it would have cost.“When you mention parking tickets to peop
19、le, most people think theyve received an unfair one,” said David Hegarty, the designer of Fixed, who came up with the idea after getting six parking tickets in one day.When someone gets a ticket, they snap a photo of it on their iPhone and enter the code. The app will tell them what percentage of th
20、ose types of tickets are usually overturned and then show a list of possible reasons it could be found wrong such as a traffic sign covered by a leafy tree or a broken parking meter. If the motorists think they have a case, the app will remind them to get any additional photographic evidence with th
21、eir phone and then digitally sign a letter.Fixeds business model isnt completely new. There are companies that handle such cases for large companies such as FedEx and UPS. The difference is that Fixed is making the service available to individuals, thus helping in any area where the fee amount is sm

25、noses at carrots or celery, a small reward like a sticker for taking even a taste may help get them to eat previously disliked foods, a UK study said.Though it might seem obvious that a reward could encourage young children to eat their vegetables, the idea is actually controversial, researchers wro
26、te in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition. Thats because some studies have shown that rewards can backfire and cause children to lose interest in foods they already liked, said Jane Wardle, a researcher at University College London who worked on the study. Verbal praise, such as “Brilliant! Y
27、oure a great vegetable taster,” did not work as well.The study found that when parents gave their small children a sticker each time they took a “tiny taste” of a disliked vegetable, it gradually changed their attitudes. The children were also willing to eat more of the vegetables-either carrots, ce
28、lery, cucumber, red pepper, cabbage or sugar snap peas in laboratory taste tests, the study said.Researchers randomly assigned(分派)173 families to one of these groups. In one, parents used stickers to reward their children each time they took a tiny sample of a disliked vegetable. A second group of p
29、arents used verbal praise. The third group, where parents used no special vegetable-promoting methods, served as a “control”.Parents in the reward groups offered their children a taste of the “target” vegetable every day of 12 days. Soon after, children in the sticker group were giving higher rating
30、s to the vegetables and were willing to eat more in the research lab, going from an average of 5 grams at the start to about 10 grams after the 12-day experience. The turnaround also seemed to last, with preschoolers in the sticker group still willing to eat more of the once disliked vegetable three
31、 months later.Why didnt the verbal praise work? Wardle said the parents words may have seemed “insincere” to their children.28. The purpose of writing the passage is_.A. to introduce a practical method of making children eat vegetablesB. to show the procedure of an experiment on childrens dietC. to
32、explain why children hate to eat vegetablesD. to present a proper way of verbal praise to parents29.

The libraries are boxes placed in neighborhoods from which residents can withdraw(取出)and deposit(存入)books. Little Fr
36、ee Libraries come in all shapes and sizes. Some libraries also have themes, focusing on books for children, adults, or tour guides. In 2009, Tod Bol built the first Little Free Library as a gift to his mother, who was a devoted reader. When he saw the people of his community gathering around it, exc
37、hanging conversation as well as books, he knew he wanted to take his simple idea further. “I think Little Free Libraries open the door to conversations we want to have with each other,” Bol said. Since then, his idea has become a movement, spreading from state to state and country to country. Accord
38、ing to Little FreeLibrary.org, there are now 18,000 of the little structures around the world, located in each of the 50 US states and 70 countries in Europe, Africa and Asia. The Internet has helped to spread Little Free Libraries. But an Atlantic article says the little structures serve as a cure
39、for a world of e-reader downloads. The little wooden boxes are refreshingly physical and human.
