One day when she was 11 years old, her elder brother, David, was badly injured. He was ill for two years. Clara cared for him the whole time. Through this experience she learned something very valuable about herself. She found out that she came alive when she cared for others.‎ ‎ Soon, Clara began taking care of injured animals.

We moved to Maine and fell in love with a piece of land. It came with a huge farmhouse much larger than we needed. We went rapidly from living in an extremely small space on the water with only two bags to a life on land as a family of four in a big house jammed with stuff. How did we end up with so much stuff? We just didn't see things piling up so quickly. It's an embarrassment of riches, It's an overabundance. And it's burying us. A couple of weeks ago, going through a pile of books I'd organized, I found my late mothers now-twenty-year-old copy of "Simplify Your Life" by Elaine St. James, I’d read it a number of times, adding my own penciled notes and folding down more pages. Wondering if St. James wrote other books on the topic, I began an Internet search that led me deeper and deeper into simplicity, and a concept that was new to me, zero waste. I sensed that what was missing from our life, from our home, was emptiness. My house can’t breathe, it's no wonder I feel like I can't either. Now, my husband and I have undertaken an experiment that we hope will lead to a major lifestyle shift for our whole family. I first started to declutter and downsize by cleaning my kitchen. I emptied out my cupboards and drawers. I put everything needed on our dining-room table. Everything else went into a huge bin for sale. My drawers are beautiful now and I'm content to take this step. Like any new beginning, there are hesitations. But in a few months, we will move into a new house less than half the size of the one we have. Can my two kids adjust to the idea of reducing their two separate rooms to one small shared bedroom with just a few toys? I can see I'm still thinking about what I will lose. But what I hope becomes clearer is what we will ‎ gain by letting go. 28. How did the author feel about the life back to the United States?‎ A. She enjoyed the new spacious house. ‎ B. She loved the abundance of materials. C. She complained about owning too much. ‎ D. She desired a much richer life.‎ ‎29. Why did the author mention Elaine St. James and her book?‎ A. To show what a great influence James had on her.‎ B. To advise more people to read James's book.[]‎ ‎ C. To indicate how her late mother liked reading.‎ ‎ D. To explain why a simple life counts to everyone.‎ ‎30. What does the underlined word "declutter "mean in Para 5? A. recover B. remove C. prepare D. escape ‎31. What is the author doing according to the last paragraph? A. Persuading her kids to live simply. B. Reflecting her hesitations about letting go.‎ C. Questioning her sudden change on life.‎ D. Missing her life on the boat. D Organic(有机的) food is very popular. It is also expensive. Some organic food costs twice as much as non-organic food. but new parents and pet owners are willing to pay up to 200% more for organic food. However, there are people who think it is a waste of money.‎ There is one main difference between organic and non-organic food. Organic farms do not use agricultural chemicals, such as pesticides( 杀虫剂). In many countries organic foods have special labels. These guarantee that the products are natural.‎ Some people think organic means locally grown. Originally this was true. Over time organic farming became more difficult. The demand for organic food grew larger than the supply. Small companies had to sell out to large companies. There weren't enough organic ingredients (原料), such as grain and cattle. This made it difficult for many organic companies to stay in business. Today, many large companies have an organic line of products Is organic food more nutritious(有营养的)? This is part of the debate. Many farmers and consumers believe it is. They think agricultural chemicals cause health problems such as cancer. Many health professionals disagree. Few studies prove that organic foods prevent health problems. Health specialists worry more about bacteria(病毒), such as E.coli and salmonella. These can get into contact with organic and non-organic food. Doctors recommend washing produce very carefully. Handling meat carefully is important too.‎ Most people agree that naturally grown food tastes better. Is tastier food worth the extra money? This is a matter of opinion. Whether it is healthier or not may require more research. However, organic consumers argue it is better to be safe than sorry.‎ ‎32. What is probably the major concern of organic food consumers?‎ A. Price. B Safety. C. Freshness. D. Variety.‎ ‎33. What is the doctors ' suggestion?‎ A. Grow your own food. B. Reduce the use of pesticides.‎ C. Make sure the food is clean. D. Buy large companies' products.‎ ‎34. Which of the following do most people agree on organic food?‎ A. It tastes better. B. It is easier to grow.‎ C. It contains more fat. D. It is more nutritious.‎ ‎35. Where does this text probably come from?‎ A. A recipe book. B. A chemistry paper.‎ C. A medical report. D. A health magazine.‎ 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。‎ For high school students, it may be comfortable to take the summer off and relax. 36 Finding a job may be hard, but the search will be worth it Even if you don’t find the job you want, you'll still gain these skills in the process.‎ ‎ You'll develop your interview skills.
