I disliked memorizing formulas（公式） and taking tests, all for the dull goal of getting a good grade. One of

7、 my teachers told my mother that I was slow. But my problem wasnt with math itself. In fact, when a topic seemed particularly interesting, I would go to the library and read more about it. By high school, no one told me that I could become a professional mathematician. What I wanted to do then was t

8、o play college football. My ambition was to get an athletic scholarship to attend a Big Ten school. The chances of that happening were very low. But that didnt stop my coaches from encouraging me to believe I could reach my goal, and preparing and pushing me to work for it. They made video tapes of

9、my performances and sent them to college coaches around the country. In the end, a Big Ten school, Penn State, did offer me a scholarship. I wish math teachers were more like football coaches. Students are affected by more than just the quality of a lesson plan. They also respond to the passion of t

10、heir teachers and the engagement of their peers, and they seek a sense of purpose. They benefit from specific instructions and constant feedback（反馈）.Until I got to college, I didnt really know what mathematics was. I still thought of it as laborious（耗时费力的） calculations. Then my professor handed me a

11、 book and suggested that I think about a particular problem. It wasnt easy, but it was fascinating. My professor kept giving me problems, and I kept pursuing them, even though I couldnt always solve them immediately. The mathematical research I was doing had little in common with what I did in my hi

12、gh school classrooms. Instead, it was closer to the math and logic puzzles I did on my own as a boy. It gave me that same sense of wonder and curiosity, and it rewarded creativity. I am now a Ph. D candidate in mathematics at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.4. Why did the writer think math

13、 class in school was something to be endured before entering college？A. Because he wasnt interested in math.B. Because his math teachers didnt care to push him.C.

Be the Best-you Can Make ItC. Math, Taught Like FootballD. Once Your Teacher, Always Your TeacherCYou have proba

16、bly read about robots replacing human labor as a new era of automation takes root in one industry after another. But a new report suggests humans are not the only ones who might lose their jobs. In New Zealand, farmers are using drones（无人机） to herd and monitor cows and sheep, taking up a position th

17、at highly intelligent dogs have held for more than a century. The robots have not replaced the dogs entirely, Radio New Zealand reports, but they have appropriated（盗用） one of the animals most powerful tools: barking. The DJI Mavic Enterprise, a $ 3，500 drone favored by farmers, has a feature that le

18、ts the machine record sounds and play them over a loudspeaker, giving the machine the ability to act as the dogs. Corey Lambeth, a shepherd on a farm, told RNZ the machines are surprisingly effective. Thats the one thing Ive noticed when youre moving cows that the old cows stand up to the dogs, but

19、with the drones, theyve never done that， he said, noting the drones move cows faster, with less stress, than the dogs do. The drones come in handy for more than just herding（放牧） cows and sheep. The robots allow farmers to monitor their land from afar, monitoring water and feed levels and checking on

20、 the animals health without disturbing them. Jason Rentoul told RNZ that a two-hour herding job that used to require two people and two teams of dogs could be accomplished in 45 minutes using a single drone. Being a hilly farm where a lot of stuff is done on foot, the drones really saved a lot of ma

21、n hours， he said. For now, farmers say, there is still a need for herding dogs, primarily because they have a longer life span than drones, can work in bad weather and do not require an electrical socket every few hours to recharge.8. What is the main advantage of the drones over herding dogs？ _ A.

22、The drones can take up a job that the dogs hardly do well any longer.B. The drones can frighten the old cows which are not afraid of the dogs.C. The drones can finish a herding job more efficiently than the dogs.D. The drones can work on a hilly farm and extreme weather while the dogs cant.9. Which

23、of the following statements is true according to the passage？A. Herding dogs will gradually lose their position on the farmland.B. The drones can only copy the dogs barking with the current technology.C. The drones are multi-functional and leave the animals undisturbed.D. The market for the DJI Mavi

24、c Enterprise is pretty small because of its high price.10. According to the passage, why cant the drones replace the dogs entirely？A. Because the drones cant bark as loudly as the dogs do.B. Because cows are not used to seeing the drones.C. Because the drones are much more expensive than the animal.

25、D. Because the drones power is limited and they need charging from time to time.11. Whatistheauthorsattitudetowards the drones in the passage？A. supportive B. objective C. critical D. doubtfulD Recently I rolled into a local restaurant to try an Impossible Burger, an all-plant patty（人造肉饼） invented b

26、y Impossible Foods. Its well known for having an strangely chewy（有咀嚼感）, even bloody, meat-like quality, a surprising verisimilitude（逼真） that has made it perhaps the countrys most famous burger， as New York magazine wrote. One bite into its wonderful, smoky taste and, damn, I was convinced. This is g

27、ood news, because the time has come to consume fake meat. In the fight against climate change, meat replacement is something we can try. A University of Oxford study recently found that, to keep global warming below 2 degrees this century, we need to be eating 75 percent less beef and 90 percent les

28、s pork.However, diets are culturally enshrined, so changing them will be hard. It isnt easy to replace 75 to 90 percent of beef and pork with fake meat. The first taste of an Impossible Burger-a moment when low expectations work a powerful magic in the products favor-is one thing. But how do you kee

29、p meat-eaters asking for more after their sixth, and their 26th？ To get to true mass adoption, fake meat will need to compete favorably with the real thing on multiple fronts. Impossible Foods goal is to drive the price of its product below that of Safeways 80/20 hamburger meat, at which point peopl

30、e will simply vote with their wallets. The new industry also wants to improve on animal flesh in various ways. Fake meat has an advantage over traditional meat because you wont need to refrigerate it cofounder Niko Koffeman says. Plus, custom（定制的） production could improve choice. You could have very soft and tender meat for elderly people， Koffeman adds. You could have a tailored meat for whatever you need.You can tell the world is shifting this way, because the ranchers（牧场主） are nervous. Last year, the US Cattlemens Association asked the governme
