3．On March 25，2013，two pandas were shipped from China to Canada．The pandas received a warm welcome to the North America from Canada's Prime Minister Stephen Harper and Chinese ambassador（大使）Zhang Junsai．
The pandas will spend five years at the Toronto Zoo，and then spend another five years at the Calgary Zoo．This is the first time in 20years that pandas have been sent to a Canadian zoo．"I want to offer my sincere thanks to the government of China for sharing these two pandas，symbolizing peace and friendship，with all Canadians，"said Prime Minister Harper．
The pandas are named Er Shun and Da Mao．Er Shun，a five-year-old female，came from the Chongqing Zoo，in southwest China．Da Mao，a four-year-old male，traveled from Chengdu．The panda passengers were given plenty of snacks throughout the flight．Each panda received more than 200pounds of bamboo and 100pounds of apples．
The number of pandas is decreasing and now there are only 1，600pandas left in the wild．And this is partly due to the loss of their primary food source，bamboo．According to a recent study，warming temperatures are causing a shortage of bamboo in at least one region of China where pandas live．
The climate in Er Shun and Da Mao's new home in Canada isn't perfect for growing bamboo．Twice a week，the Memphis Zoo，in Tennessee，will ship about 700pounds of the green plant up north to the Toronto Zoo．While the pandas are far from China，zookeepers plan to make Canada feel like their home．
21．We can know from the second paragraph thatD．

C．can eat as many as 100pounds of apples in a day
D．are from the same Chinese zoo
23．What is Paragraph 4mainly about？C

B．The primary food source of pandas．
C．The reason for the decreasing number of pandas．

2．Today just as technology changed the face of industry，farms have experienced anagricultural revolution"．On the farm of today，machines provide almost all the power．
One of the most important benefits will be the farm computer．A few forward-looking farmers are already using computers to help them run their farms more efficiently．The computers help them keep more accurate（精确的） records so they can make better decisions on what crops to plant，hw much livestock （家畜） to buy，when to sell their products，and how much profit they can expect．Many computer companies have been developing special computer programs just for farmers．Programs are being written for pig producers，grain farmers，potato farmers，and dairy farmers．In the future，farmers will be able to purchase computer programs made to their needs．Because of the growing importance of computers on the farm，students at agricultural colleges are required to take computer classes in addition to their normal agricultural courses．There can be no doubt that farmers will rely on computers even more in the future．While the old-time farm depended on horse power，and mdern farms depend on machine power，farms of the future will depend on computer power．
Another technological advance which is still in the experimental stage is the robot，a real"mechanized hired hand"that will be able to move and，in some ways，think like a human being．Agricultural engineers believe that computer-aided robots will make shocking changes in farming before the end of the century．Unlike farmers of the present，farmers of the future will find that many day-to-day tasks will be done for them．Scientists are now developing robots that will be able to shear （修剪） sheep，drive tractors，and harvest fruit．Even complex jobs will be done by robots．For example，in orer to milk their cows，farmers must first drive them into the barn，then connect them to the milking machines，watch the machines，and disconnect them when they are finished．In the future，this will all be done by robots．In addition，when the milking is completed，the robots will automatically check to make sure that the milk is pure．The complete change of the farm is far in the future，but engineers expect that some robots will be used before long．
33．According to the passage，computers can not help farmers decideC．

B．Farmers mainly use machines on their farms at present．
C．Both computers and robots have been in use on today's farms．

16．Tricks to Learn from Super SleepersDo you want to sleep soundly each night and wake up energized the next day？
Exercise early．
Morning fitness class（健身班） or gym time before work？Go ahead，give it a try．（31）FWhile experts aren't exactly sure why，it could have something to do with morning exercise's ability to help regulate the secretion（分泌物） of certain hormones（荷尔蒙） involved in blood pressure management，which may lead to better sleep．
Eat light at night．
Desiring a midnight snack？If your stomach starts rumbling（发出咕噜声） before bed，try reaching for good-for-you foods that actually promote sleep，like walnuts，tart cherries，or Greek yogurt instead．（32）D Eating too much of anything within a few hours of going to bed could suppress（抑制） your body's ability to produce sleep-promoting melatonin．
Power down at night．
Smart phones，tablets，and laptops let you do everything from shopping to watching movies to working in bed．What they don't let you do？Fall asleep．（33）G．In addition to reducing your blue light exposure，you'll probably feel less stressed，which in itself can help you sleep better．
Keep their rooms cool
（34）A But being too warm can make it harder to have quality sleep，say experts at the National Sleep Foundation．Instead，they recommend keeping your bedroom at around 20℃，which research suggests is the most suitable temperature for great sleep．
（35）C
Consistency（一致性） is key to healthy sleep．Though for some it's usual to stay up late，then get up early for work and sleep late on the weekends，doing so can cause damage to your body's internal clock．Over time，that can make it harder to fall asleep，not to mention making it more unpleasant to wake up in the morning．
