Today we were heading out to what is arguably one of the most beautiful natural wonders of
this region, Saklikent Gorge (峡谷) , a 300-meter-deep canyon that is close to Fethiye .
However, first, we had to enter the canyon. Before us was a raging river about 20 meters
across, and we would have to wade(蹚水) through to get to the entrance of the gorge. I lost my
breath when my feet made contact with the water. My whole foot had turned numb. I shot out of
the water, fast as a rabbit, screaming like a wild dog. I'm sure it was a sight to see. Dad and
Lalika seemed to bear it better, as they were the first to begin heading through the fast flowing
waters.
Soon it was up to their knees, but battling their way through they were the first of our
family to make it across. During this time I was considering if I really wanted to go through with
this. The look on Mum's face showed me that there was no alternative. She took my hand and
we began making our way through the ice-cold water to the sound of Lalika's cheers. I nearly
slipped at one point but thankfully I recovered in time and Mum and I came out of the water half
dry and very happy.
Then the canyon was in front of us. I began to wade through the softest flowing grey clay
that had deposited itself over thousands of years between this magnificent Moorish pink gorge
towering over me. I was surprised that the locals hadn't already made a beauty industry out of
this, mining this natural resource, when I remembered that thankfully, it was a protected
national possession, located in a national park.
That didn't stop Dad and Lalika from making a mud pack, as the two of them smoothed the
liquid clay all over their faces, arms and legs. The mud also made great war paint and Lalika
and I had a really fun time applying it before role playing a fierce battle of the clans(家族).
After about 45 minutes of walking, we came to a fork in the canyon, and we decided to return.
24.What did the author think of the river?
A. Cold. B. Deep. C. Wide. D. Dirty.
25. What made the author decide to cross the river?
A. Dad and Lalika's example.
B. Mum's facial expression.
C. Strong determination.
D. Family promises.
26. Why could Saklikent Gorge be preserved ?
A. It was hard to enter.
B. It belonged to the locals.
C. It had no value to develop.
D. It has been protected by the government.
27. What can we learn about the canyon?
A. It is colorful.
B. It is muddy.
C. It is boring.
D. It is scaring.

Harry Steenbock is professor of biochemistry at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, and
he is best remembered for his discovery of a way to increase the vitamin D content of foods in
the early 1920s. This important discovery virtually got rid of rickets, a disabling bone disease,
Steenbock's work was pioneering in another way, too: his attempt to patent and market his
technology led to the establishment of the Wisconsin Alumni Research Foundation, now a major
partner of the Wisconsin Institutes for Discovery.
While working in his UW-Madison lab in late 1923, Steenhock discovered that he could
increase the vitamin D content of foods by irradiating (照射) them with ultraviolet light.
Steenbock was eager to share his breakthrough discovery with the world. But, he knew he
needed to carefully manage his discovery so it could reach its full potential and benefit the
greater good.
Steenbock submitted a patent application with $300 0f his own money to protect his
discovery. The Quaker Oats Company offered Steenbock a deal valued at nearly $1 million
(almost $ 10 million in today's money) for exclusive rights to his invention. Despite this huge
amount of money, Steenbock turned down the Quaker deal. He felt that the profits from lus
discovery should be returned to the university to make future scientific research possible - and
he had a vision for how to protect his breakthrough discovery and pass its benefits on to the
public.
Steenbock imagined a nonprofit foundation that would protect discoveries made by UW-
Madison researchers through patent management and licensing, invest in research-based
discoveries, and return profits to the university to finance further scientific inquiry. Nine
generous alumni(校友) donated $ 100 each to aid the efforts and on November 14, 1925, the
Wisconsin Alumni Research Foundation ( WARF) became one of the nation's first university-
based technology transfer(转让) offices. The new patent management agency carried out its
first license agreement in February 1927 with the Quaker Oats Company. Quaker went on to use
Steenbock's irradiation techniques to increase the amount of vitamin D in breakfast grains.
28. Which aspect of Steenbock's contributions does this article focus on?
A. Getting rid of the bone disease.
B. Pioneering in biochemistry education.
C. Helping establish a nonprofit foundation.
D. Increasing the Vitamin D content in foods.
29. Which of the following best describes Steenbock according to Paragraph three?
A. Far-sighted. B. Warm-hearted. '
C. Conservative. D. Intelligent.
30. Who signed the deal with Quaker Oats Company?
A. The nine alumni.
B. Harry Steenbock.
C. Wisconsin Institute for Discovery.
D. The Wisconsin Alumni Research Foundation.
31. What can be learned about Wisconsin Alumni Research Foundation?
A. It brings in profit for the 9 alumni.
B. It supports future scientific research.
C. It helps the people with hone diseases.
D. It gives out money to every student at UW-Madison.

Owning a pet makes us healthier and happier, but for many of us, long hours at work,
tight budgets and small flats means it's just not practical. But there's good news for animal
lovers; you can now cosy up with a cup of tea while spending time with furry friends, as the
global movement of animal caf6s has reached the UK. .
The international phenomenon originated in Taipei, where the world's first cat cafe, Cat
Flower Garden, opened in 1998. Curious tourists soon discovered the pet paradise and brought
the concept over to Japan. The first Japanese cat cafe opened in Osaka in 2005, and now there
are said to be nearly 40 in Tokyo alone.
Japan has now gone far beyond the original concept, and some of the trendiest places to
visit nowadays have owls, rabbits and goats hanging around. Tokyo's Fukuro no Mise, which
means the "Shop of Owls" , has full guest lists for up to two months.
Lady Dinah's Cat Emporium was the first of its kind to open up in East London last year.
The successful cat cafe takes bookings 50 days ahead and usually about 90% of them book out
about 5 -6 weeks in advance, Though the business has been a success, the owner Lauren Pears
worries a little bit about the sudden rise of cat cafes everywhere.
"Cat caf6s are still in their beginnings here and we've seen a very recent cautionary tale
springing up in Singapore with the sudden burst of cat cafes in the city. Earlier this year, one of
them was closed down after serious animal welfare issues resulted in the
deaths of several cats. "
She emphasizes that even though the job is fun and rewarding, it also comes with serious
responsibility.
32. Why are cat cafes so popular?
A. They offer great services.
B. They promote a new concept,
C. They stay open for a long time.
D. They provide practical means to enjoy pets.
33. What is the concern of Lauren Pears?
A. The blind expansion of cat cafes.
B. The sudden rise of illegal cat cafes.
C. Cat Cafe owners' lack of responsibility.
D. The possibility that cats may be unfriendly.
34. What does the underlined part "cautionary tale" in the last paragraph refer to?
A. Greeting, B. Warning. C. Interview. D. Development.
35. Which country does the text mainly report about?
A. UK. B. China. C. Japan. D. Singapore.

When you ask people how to make friends as an adult, they usually give you suggestions
like, "just get out there," "join a dance class," or, "try speed dating.” 36 After all,
making friends does require us to get out into the world and take a few emotional risks.
Most of the time, however, we are not lacking for ideas on where to meet people. 37
For this reason, most people find that reconnecting with themselves is a first step towards
reconnecting with others.
If you feel tired, out of shape, or sad, most of the time, making friends is going to be
extremely difficult. 38 Start small. Use the l - minute technique to gradually increase your
commitment to exercise. Get out into nature. Set a timer to remind yourself to get up every hour
to stretch. Try gentle yoga(瑜伽)．
While you build up your body, don't forget to nourish（滋养）your mind. Write down one
thing every day that you are grateful for. 39 Learn to become your own best friend.
40 Instead of relying on our social circumstances to bring people into our lives, we
need to change ourselves first and then invite people into our lives.
A. On the surface, these are fine suggestions,
B. Spend a few minutes every day in reflection.
C. It will be even more difficult when you are an adult.
D. We only need to know how to start a conversation with strangers.
E. We are missing the motivation and self-confidence to get started.
F. Making friends as an adult is possible, but it requires a new approach.
G. Fortunately, there are plenty of simple things that you can do to increase your physical and
emotional resources.
