This made me gain much confidence t
19、o do almost all jobs,” says Tenzing.However, as his mother was getting older, on December 12, 2006, Tenzing returned to his hometown in Assam. Having visited several farms, he came to know that tea could be easily exported and many tea companies were buying tea; so he also decided to grow tea on his
20、 farm. But as his family had never grown tea, he had no idea how to do it.Being a green hand in this field, Tenzing went to meet with many tea experts and followed their instructions. But whenever he sprayed pesticide (农药)on his farm, hed get a headache and feel indisposed. So he started looking for
21、 alternatives. Tenzing did his research online and finally in 2007, he connected with people from a Canadian non-governmental organization and invited them to his farm, where they trained him.

26、home, the gym, parties and stores. But what kind of music do we prefer to listen to, and when and why do our musical preferences change?7The relationship between the change of seasons and musical preferences was the focus of a study led by psychologist Terry Pettijohn. He and his team based their re
27、search on a previous study that examined the relationship between popular music preferences and the Environmental Security Hypothesis(假设). The results showed that over time, when social and financial conditions were more risky, the songs of the year that were slower, longer, more comforting and seri
28、ous were most popular. And during periods in which social and financial conditions were generally stable, the result was opposite.Building on these findings, Pettijohn and his team wondered if the Hypothesis could also be applied to the change of seasons. For college students, the participants in th
29、is study, autumn begins at the start of the school year. Gone are the carefree days of summer, when school is out. Winter means colder temperatures, shorter days, and, in many places in the country, snow. Spring, however, is a different story. It represents a fresh start and when clocks spring forwa
30、rd, we gain an extra hour of daylight. As students walk into summer, theyre absorbed in the sunshine and social activitiesand enjoy a break from school.But do changing seasonal conditions influence musical preferences? To answer this question, the researchers designed two studies. What did they find
31、? Both groups of college students favored more serious music during the seasons of fall and winter, and more active and energetic music during the spring and summer seasons. And these findings, Pettijohn argues, have practical significances.28. The purpose of the question raised in Paragraph 1 is to
32、 _.A. present a different opinion on musicB. prove where to listen to music mattersC. stress the importance of music to humansD. introduce the topic on musical preferences29.

33、her one lives in a stable situation.C. Whether one is exposed to sunlight.D. Whether one chooses to change his life.30. What does Paragraph 3 imply?A. Students arent fond of school in any season.B. Spring has a special meaning to people.C. The Hypothesis disagrees with Pettijohns studies.D. The leng
34、th of summer time is longer than that of winter time.31. How does Pettijohn feel about the findings of his studies?A. Its unexpected. B. Its humorous.C. Its discouraging. D. Its significant.DAs anyone who freelances (做自由职业) knows, there are lots of advantages of working at home alone. But there are
35、drawbacks too, like the potential loneliness. No wonder co-working spaces are becoming so popular, they permit self-employed individuals to feel like they are part of all office environment, while making them get some work done too. But renting a co-working space does cost money.Now a Swedish projec
36、t is aiming to change that by turning peoples under-used homes into temporary co-working spaces, available to freelancers for free. Hoffice was started by freelancers Christofer Gradin Franzen and Johline Zandra about a year ago in Stockholm when they invited a few people into their home office to w
37、ork together. It was a great success, and the project has since spread to a number of cities in Europe, North and South America, Australia, India and Japan. Anyone can sign up and offer their home space as a free co-working space, or go find a Hoffice near them. On a Hoffice day, everyone arrives an
38、d starts work at a certain hour. After 45 minutes,everyone gets up to take a break, stretch, do qigong or yoga for 10 9to 15 minutes. Afterwards,people can gather around again, and re-state their intentions and goals for the rest of the work day, as a way to motivate each other. Meals can be eaten t
39、ogether at a certain hour, potluck-style (家常饭) or by bringing their own lunch.This process creates an encouraging and supportive work environment. As some freelancers describe, “By working at Hoffice, we give ourselves and each other the gift to spend our days in a social working environment, where
40、we are extremely productive without ignoring our other human needs. We also make sure to give ourselves and each other what we need to feel calm, happy, inspired and creative during the working day.”So Hoffice is not just about sharing space; its also about a free exchange of ideas. And perhaps the
41、best thing is that Hoffices are free to use.32. Hoffice was started to_.A. change peoples attitude to work B. encourage people to be more socialC. provide a co-working space for free D. improve peoples working conditions 33Whats the main idea of Paragraph 3?A.

Whats the reason why youths are interested in cosplay? 36 Cosplay participants
45、often interact with each other to dress up as characters from animes (动漫), cartoons, comic books, films, TV programs and video games. Youths who love cosplay have their own sets of jokes, which “outsiders” rarely understand. 37 Cosplayers are almost always young, most of them under 25, and as they g
46、row older, they tend to give up the practice. 38 Instead, they should treat such youngsters as normal youths, but at the same time warn them never to cross the social and moral boundaries.The cosplay subculture is a kind of performing arts. Cosplayers usually get the costumes in these ways. First, t
47、hrough some companies that make and sell packaged suits for cosplay. Second, through some individuals that make costumes and accessories. 39 With capital flowing into the ACG (二次元) industry, more specific and mature business models help the industry develop further. 40 Since then the domestic animat
48、ion and game industry has been developing healthily with a stronger sense of using legal products. Chinas ACG industry is likely to see higher growth in 2019.A. Based on a research, 2015 proved to be a turning point.B. The cosplay industry is expected to witness more success.C. Therefore, there is n
49、o need for parents to overreact to cosplay.D. So regulators should strictly monitor such events to prevent improper 11behaviors.E. And besides, by making them themselves.F.
