My degree, with honors, in English literature had not really pre
17、pared me for anything practical. I knew I wanted to make a difference in the world somehow, but I had no idea how to do that. Thats when I learned about the Lighthouse Project.I started my journey as a Lighthouse Project volunteer by reading as much as I could about the experiences of previous volun
18、teers. I knew it would be a lot of hard work, and that I would be away from my family and friends for a very long time. In short, I did not take my decision to apply for the Lighthouse Project lightly. Neither did my family.Eventually, however, I won the support of my family, and I sent in all the p
19、aperwork needed for the application. After countless interviews and presentations, I managed to stand out among the candidates and survive the test alone. Several months later, I finally received a call asking me to report for duty. I would be going to a small village near Abuja, Nigeria. Where? Wha
20、t? Nigeria? I had no idea. But I was about to find out.After completing my training, I was sent to the village that was small and desperately in need of proper accommodation. Though the local villagers were poor, they offered their homes, food, and hearts as if I were their own family. I was asked t
21、o lead a small team of local people in building a new schoolhouse. For the next year or so, I taught in that same schoolhouse.

25、. Lighthouse Projecta Volunteer Organization for New GraduatesCDrought is an increasing problem in our warming world. All continents have been experiencing more extended periods without rain, leading to forest fires and poor crop growth. Consequently, people are looking at cloud seeding to solve the
26、 problema method of encouraging precipitation（降水） by sending small particles of certain chemicals into clouds.Cloud-seeding expert Arlen Huggins has been studying its effectiveness. “My earliest experience was to use cloud seeding to reduce the amount of hail （冰雹） in northeast Colorado. We didnt hav
27、e any luck with that, but we had success later on in increasing snowfall in Utah. Now, the focus is shifting towards increasing rainfall from summer clouds, which is far more unpredictable.” said he.The problem is that its pretty hard to know whether precipitation resulted directly from cloud seedin
28、g. It might have rained or snowed anyway. Even if you practice cloud seeding in one place and dont in another, its impossible to know for sure what caused the precipitation. As cloud seeding is expensive and its effectiveness uncertain, its usefulness is still a matter of opinion, says Katja Friedri
29、ch, a researcher of University of Colorado.Additionally, its not during foggy and snowy conditions that people think of increasing the chance of rainfall. When a country is hit by drought, then cloud seeding isnt an option due to the lack of clouds. During drought, skies tend to be clear with few cl
30、ouds. The best option to prevent drought is to seed at times of the year when rainfall levels are normal or higher. There are also environmental issues regarding the impact of cloud seeding. At high levels, the chemicals sent into the clouds can harm humans and other animals, and some studies have f
31、ound them slightly poisonous. Apart from that, some environmentalists are concerned about the long-term impacts, as there isnt data on how much those chemicals accumulate in the environment over 10 years.28. What is the purpose of cloud seeding?A. To increase grain output. B. To slow down global war
32、ming.C. To reduce chemicals in the air. D. To deal with dry and rain-free weather.29. How is Arlen Huggins earliest experience in Paragraph 2?A. Its effective. B. Its unsuccessful. C. Its satisfying. D. Its fruitful.30. What is Katja Friedrichs attitude towards cloud seeding?A. Favourable. B. Oppose
33、d. C. Unclear. D. Doubtful.31. What can be inferred from the text?A. Drought currently poses the only threat to forests and crops.B. Rainmaking in any weather will come true in the near future.C. Researchers now can not tell if rainfall is brought by cloud seeding.D. Chemicals sent into the clouds w
34、ill become less poisonous over time.DWhat does it mean to be intelligent? If its defined by having the biggest brain, then sperm whales（抹香鲸）whose brain is 20 poundswould be the brightest creatures on Earth. But, more likely, its how a brain is wired. Viewed in this way, intelligence is what gives an
35、 organism the best chance to survive in an environment. Language may be one of the best ways to demonstrate that kind of smarts.“Language allowing humans to be a more advanced species is a hypothesis that somebody came up with one day without really trying to prove it,” says Erich Jarvis, a professo
36、r who studies the neuro-biology of vocal learning. “The idea stuck around, but so have other common beliefs that are not really supported with evidence,” he points out.To get a better grasp of vocal learning and cognition, the study authors turned to songbirds. The team performed seven cognitive exp
37、eriments on 214 songbirds from 23 different species. Of these, 21 species were caught from the wild. The rest two studied are domesticated（家养的）. The behavioral tests examined the birds problem solving, for instance, figuring out how to remove an object to access the food reward. The researchers also
38、 tested two other skills often associated with intelligence: learning by association, plus whats called reversal （倒转的） learning, in which an animal adjusts its behavior to get a reward. They then looked at whether being vocal learners helped develop the three skills, comparing 21 bird species to two
39、 others which were non-vocal learners. Jarvis new study provides some of the first evidence that vocal learningone of the crucial components for a spoken languageis associated with problem solving. Vocal learning bird species could come up with innovative ideas, such as getting seeds, or catching a
40、worm trapped under a cup by removing the obstacle or pulling it apart. All three abilitiesproblem solving, associative learning, and reversal learningare typically considered components of intelligence,” he says.“One question left unanswered is why theres such a strong relationship between problem-s
41、olving abilities and vocal learning. The brain areas in charge of vocal learning are not the same ones that get activated when we need to troubleshoot（分析解决） an issue,” says Michael Goldstein, a professor of psychology at Cornell University who studies vocal learning in songbirds and humans but was n
42、ot involved in the study.32. Which can probably define intelligence according to Paragraph 1?A. Language. B. Brainsize. C. Brainstructure. D. Environment.33. What does the underlined word in Paragraph 2 mean?A. Guarantee. B. Assumption. C. Category. D. Distribution.34. What are Paragraphs 3&4 mainly

The mechanism that bridges all the brain regions.B. The functions of the brain areas that can troubleshoot issues.C. The r
44、easons why songbirds intelligence can not develop further.D. The reasons why vocal learning influence problem-solving abilities.第二节（共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分 12.5分）根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Reading is an exercise for the mind. It is good for our vocabulary and literacy skills, teaching us math
45、or science concepts and helping us learn history. Apart from those, reading has another benefit. Have you read a story and felt tears well up because of a characters suffering? If so, that is because you have empathy（共情） for the character. 36 .Research shows that human brains react differently to st
46、ories and facts. 37 In addition, your brain thinks you are in the story, which means you experience the characters thoughts as if they were real. 38 This skill, called emotional intelligence (EI), can make it easier to communicate and connect with people. Research shows that building this intelligence can lead to greater tolerance. One study found that people who read the Har
