4．Scope：What led you to start an urban （城市的） garden？
Denzel：When I was 14，I went on a service trip to New Orleans．My group helped build an urban garden in a neighborhood that had all the same problems as mine．I realized we could make a difference at home too．I came back and worked with friends to find land we were allowed to use，clean it up，and build a garden．
Scope：Tell us about your neigh borhood in Philadelphia．
Denzel：There is crime （犯罪） and violence，and everybody used to see it as a place where there was nothing to do．Because there wasn't a lot of fresh food around，a typical （典型的） meal would be something like chips，soda，or cheese sticks．
Scope：What is the urban garden like？
Denzel：We have outdoor gardens and greenhouses where we can grow plants year-round．It's made a big difference in the neighborhood．
Scope：How？
Denzel：It's given people something positive （积极的） to do．Both young kids and older people come to the garden，and we help them grow their own food．They can also help with marketing when we sell food to local restaurants．People are eating healthier，too．Food is connected to everything．
Scope：What do you mean？
Denzel：If you don't eat fresh food，you feel tired and unhealthy．People who eat fresh food are more confident．People who grow their own food are even more confident．

1．It's a popular belief that a fish's memory lasts for only seven seconds．It may seem sad to think that they don't remember what they've eaten or where they've been，and they don't recognize you or any of their friends---every moment in their life would be like seeing the world for the first time．
But don't be so quick to feel sorry for them．A new study has found that fish have a much better memory than we used to think．In fact，certain species of fish can even remember events from as long as 12days ago．
In the study，researchers from MacEwan University in Canada trained a kind of fish called African cichlids to go to a certain area of their tank to get food．They then waited for 12days before putting them back in the tank again．
Researchers used computer software to monitor the fish's movements．They found that after such a long break the fish still went to the same place where they first got food．This suggested that they could remember their past experiences．
In fact，scientists had been thinking for a long time that African cichlids might have a good memory．An earlier study showed that they behaved aggressively in front of certain fish，perhaps
because they remembered their past"fights"．But until the latest findings，there was no clear
evidence．
Just as a good memory can make our lives easier，it also plays an important part when a fish is trying to survive in the wild．
"If fish are able to remember that a certain area contains safe food，they will be able to go
back to that area without putting their lives at risks，"lead researcher Trevor Hamilton told Live Science．

For a long time，fish were placed far below chimpanzees，dolphins and mice on the list of smart animals．But this study has given scientists a new understanding of their intelligence．

33．What is the article mainly about？B
A．Fish having very bad memories．
B．Fish being smarter than we thought．
C．How fish improve their memory．
D．What we can learn from fish．
34．According to the article，people used to believe thatD．
A．fish could only remember part of their past experiences
B．fish could remember things that happened 12days ago
C．a fish's memory lasted for only seven minutes
D．fish didn't recognize any of their friends
35．How can fish benefit most from a good memory？They can rememberA．
A．where to get food and survive
B．their enemies and fight
C．where to escape to when in danger
D．their friends and help each other．

18．When facing sadness or anger，how will you deal with it？Everyone says that one of the most effective ways to handle negative（41）Cis to relax．If things are sad，try to find a reason to（42）B；If you're angry，joke around．However，（43）Asaid than done．
I had a chance to practice my（44）Dof"Make a joke of it"Last week．As a（45）Cof certain negotiations last year，my husband（46）Athe job of dealing with my daughter's（47）Din orthodontia（牙齿矫正）．The orthodontist's office is right near his office，he agreed that he'd schedule the（48）Ato take her．
On our flight to Kansas City for the holidays，the Big Girl lost her"functional appliance"．We looked everywhere on the（49）D，and it was gone．We got back home a week later，and the Big Man didn't make a（n）（50）B．Days went by，I reminded him regularly，but nothing（51）C．Whenever I thought about this（52）D，I became extremely annoyed．Last night，I walked into our bedroom ready to tum on my（53）Bat full volume．"This really matters．She's growing now．What's more，you（54）Ayou'd do it，"etc．Then I thought，"Make a joke of it．"So I went over，put my arm around him，said（55）C，"You know what？If you don't call the orthodontist's tomorrow，I'm going to be angry，I'm not threatening，but just giving you fair warning．"I laughed while I said it．"I know，I know!"he said，shaking his head．"I'll send myself an email right now．"And today he made the appointment．
I'm not sure if making a joke of it was more（56）Bthan getting angry，but I don't think it was less effective．It was much nicer than that（57）Dway．I was happier about it，（58）Bwas he．Of course，my jokes weren't funny at all，but just the （59）Ato take a humorous attitude made a（60）Cdifference．It's easy to say"make a joke of it"，but it's hard to do when you're feeling angry or upset．Have you found a way to get yourself to make a joke？

5．One day，at a restaurant，my grandmother，my mother and I were having（41）Dafter a morning spent shopping．I（42）Cmy favorite hamburger and fried chips．When brought to the table，it was accompanied by a plate of peas．I'd always（43）Bpeas．I certainly was not about to eat them．
"Eat your peas，"my grandmother said．"Mom，he doesn't like peas，"my mom reminded her in a gentle voice．"Leave him alone．"

2．In Mid-autumn festival，people usually admire the moon and enjoy mooncakes．
3．Recently I had a conversation in Beijing with an adult Chinese friend who was complaining how difficult it was to study English．No surprises there．It is a difficult language to master，just like Chinese．I made a few suggestions based on my experience．One involved a very valuable fact which I learned from my high school Latin and Greek teacher，Dr．Smith．He is a gifted linguist （语言学家），and has an amazing ability to remember things，like poetry，essays，speeches，etc．His advice to us students is that for memorization purposes，there is forty minutes each day in which our memory is more acceptable than it is during the other 23 hours and 20 minutes．
This 40-minute"super memory"period is divided into two parts：the 20 minutes before we sleep，and the 20 minutes after we first awake．The theory supporting this is pretty simple．First，the last information we input into our brain before bed has a better chance of taking root than information gained during the noisy daytime； and second，our mind is free of disturbance（干扰） when we first awake in the morning一so more receptive to inputs，like a blank slate（石板）．
I took the advice to heart and it served me well in my school years．In my university days，our Chinese teacher would assign us 200 new vocabulary words each day，on which we would be quizzed（测试）the following day．Without the"magic"40-minute technique，there's no way I would have passed those daily quizzes．
As far as language study goes，it's not only useful for memorizing vocabulary．It's also a very useful window of time to listen to the language we're studying even with background noise，and even if it's at a level we find difficult to understand．It might be audio（声音的）language study，aids，or just radio，TV or whatever．
Beyond our years of formal（正式的） education，memory skills are hugely important in any career．How many times have we heard a speaker read their speech from a prepared text，or read the word-by-word content of a PowerPoint presentation as they present each slide（投影片）？These are annoying，boring，and less effective ways of communicating．They are almost guaranteed（保证） to lose the audience's close attention and interest，let alone persuade or inspire anyone to do anything．And yet lots of people still make this mistake．
If we use the 40-minute technique，we may not succeed in memorizing our presentation content on a 100% word-by-word basis，but we'll be familiar enough so that we can spend much more time making eye contact with our audience．We will get them in the process，while looking at our text instead of staring at it．This will also free up our hands and arms to convey some extra messages through gesture．
As you see，the technique really works，but like many things，it takes practice to perfect it．Therefore，we'd better find ways to use the language outside of the classroom，as regularly and frequently as possible．One basic rule of language learning is，"Use it，or lose it•"
Seize the forty-minute learning window and we'll bring in a rich harvest of language learning．
