Some people would prefer to stop the use of man-made chemicals in agriculture entirely. What keeps them from doing so is the fact that chemical farming serves the high demand for food around the world. Organic farming is nowhere near able to meet that need. Therefore, there is still a long way to find a suitable solution that puts sufficient food on the dinner table while keeping people and the environment as healthy as possible.

It’s a scene so common: Coffee shops are filled with customers who seem more absorbed in their study or work than in their drinks. The coffee shop has become a popular place for modern-day students and workers. It’s less boring than the library, and yet it is still filled with the same energy as a school.

There might be a good reason why students are drawn to social spaces like coffee shops for study. A recent study conducted by researchers in Belgium indicates that productivity may increase in coffee shops.

As part of the study, about 40 participants were placed side-by-side in pairs and asked to undergo(经历) reaction-time tests. Each participant sat in front of a computer screen, which flashed different colored squares. The goal for each person was to hit the key on the keyboard that corresponded with each square. Though each participant worked separately, they were affected by how hard their neighbor was working. The researchers varied the difficulty levels of each person’s test, and they found that if they paired a person working on a medium-difficult test with someone taking a very difficult test, the first person would work harder. Not only that，but the first person’s accuracy would also improve.

“It seems like noticing that their partner is working hard motivated people to work hard too,” a researcher explained. But the researchers couldn’t exactly explain why. “One possibility is that the hard workers’ body position gat noticeably more tense. So next time you enter a coffee shop to study or work, sitting next to customers who are obviously in the zone may be a wise choice.”

A. They can enjoy drinks while studying.

B. It’s too boring for them to study in a library.

34. How would a participant be affected by a neighbor doing a more difficult test?

A. He would work less Hard.

B. He would possibly give up.

C. He would achieve better results.

D. He would change the difficulty level.

35. What can we learn from the last paragraph?

A. Further research will be done in the future.

B. Sit next to a hard worker if you want to study.

C. Customers should sit tensely in a coffee shop.

D. The researchers have fully explained the result.

 In 1883, John Roebling was inspired by an idea to build a bridge connecting New York with the Long Island. However, bridge building experts throughout the world thought this was impossible, but Roebling could not ignore the vision he had in his mind of this bridge. After much discussion and persuasion he managed to convince his son Washington, an up and coming engineer, that the bridge in fact could be built.

The project started well, but only a few months later a tragic accident on the site took the life of John Roebling. Washington was injured and left with a certain amount of brain damage, which resulted in him not being able to walk or talk or even move.

 “Crazy men and their crazy dreams.” “It’s foolish to chase(追求) wild visions.” Everyone had a negative（否定的，消极的） comment to make and felt the project should be abandoned since the Roebling were the only ones to know how the bridge could be built.

In spite of his handicap（缺陷）, Washington was never discouraged.

One day he was lying on his bed in hospital, seeing the sky and the tops of the trees outside, and a gentle breeze blowing the white curtains apart when an idea hit him. He decided to make the best use of the only finger he could move. Slowly he developed a code of communication with his wife.

He touched his wife’s arm with that finger, indicating that he wanted her to call the engineers again. Then he used the same method of tapping her arm to tell the engineers what to do. It seemed foolish but the project was under way again.

For 13 years Washington tapped out his instructions with his finger on his wife’s arm until the bridge was finally completed.
