11． Imagine being able to go to your local park and pick some tomatoes，potatoes or even bananas to take home for dinner.Sounds too good to be true，right？For residents of Andernach，a German city，it's not just a Utopian dream — it's their reality.In 2010，Andernach began its "edible city" project，planting 101 varieties of tomatoes in public green spaces around the city centre.Its 30，000 residents are free to help themselves to whatever grows，as are any other visitors.Every year a new type of plant is jye.aitroduced.In 2011，100 types of beans were planted，while 2012 saw the introduction of 20 onion varieties.The town's motto （座右銘） is， "Picking is encouraged — help yourself!"
It's a community effort，as local citizens are encouraged to help plant and maintain the gardens.This offers an opportunity to socialize as well as to learn about planting，cultivating and harvesting food. "I often drop by to pick some herbs that I'm missing at home.Everything is easily accessible.There aren't any fences.You just take what you need.The only thing is you have to be quick once the fruits are ripe or they'll all be gone!" said a local historian.
Andernach may be the first，but it isn't the only edible cjye.aiy.It's part of the Edible Cities Network，an EU-funded project connecting green urban food initiatives （倡議） around the world.Other edible cities include Carthage in Tunisia，Havana in Cuba and ?empeter-Vrtojba in Slovenia.In February 2022，the first Edible Cities Network Conference took place.Dr.Ina S?umel，Principal Investigator of the Edible Cities Network，called it， "a unique opportunity to invite researchers and practitioners （從業(yè)人員） of Edible City Solutions to the same table and unite theory with practice".
Ultimately，the Edible Cities Network aims to create "greener，more edible and，above all，more livable cities".It is a response to the pressures of climate change，and a cause for hope.
（1）What is paragraph 1 mainly about？
A．The process of Andernach's growth.
B．The green food project in Andernach.
C．Methods of planting vegetables in Europe.

D．Edible cities hold meetings on a regular base.
（4）Which of the following could be the best title for the text？
A．Start a Green Food Campaign Now

D．An Incredible "Edible City" Initiative組卷：6引用：3難度：0.5 -
12．Conventional wisdom may tell you that a master's degree from Harvard Business School in the US is the key to a Fortune 500 job，while the same degree from the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania，US，means a possible career on Wall Street．
It seems that the graduate school you go to somewhat decides your future．And a recent New York Times article reveals the correlation between MBA （Master of Business Administration） graduates at certain US schools and career prospects．
To work at Amazon
Ross School of Business （University of Michigan）
Amazon regularly hires more MBAs from top 10 business schools than big Wall Street firms．And a large chunk of Americans employees are from Ross．Graduate Peter Faricy，vice president of Amazon Marketplace，says the reason behind this is that Ross' curriculum-related offerings，a problem-solving course for instance，are particularly well suited to Amazon．
To work at Mc Kinsey&Company
Kellogg School of Management （Northwestern）
For an MBA，landing a job at McKinsey is like trying to get into a competitive business school all over again．However，Kellogg graduates perform well in the fierce competition．The school's MBAs are in demand at elite consulting firms，which hired 35 percent of Kellogg graduates last year，a higher percentage than at Harvard （23 percent） and Stanford （16 percent）．
To work at Apple
Fuqua School of Business （Duke）
Silicon alley hasn't always welcomed MBAs．However，two of Apple's top 10 executives come from Fuqua．Apple has hired 32 Fuqua graduates over the past five years，and provided 42 internships for Duke students．
To start your own company
Harvard Business School
The extensive resources Harvard has devoted to its entrepreneurial（企業(yè)家的） offerings in recent years are starting to show real results．By many accounts，it has surpassed Stanford as the top entrepreneurial hot-bed in the US．

13．The four countries that belong to the United Kingdom work together in some areas.They use the same flag，known as the Union Jack，as well as share the same currency and military defence.However，they also have some differences.For example，England，Wales，Scotland，and Northern Ireland all have different education systems and legal systems.They also have their own traditions，like their own national days and national dishes.And they even have their own football teams for competitions like the World Cup!

14．Whenever we talk about holidays，my mother teases my sister and me about how we "make out like robbers." She is referring to the fact that we are half Jewish and half Indian，so we receive gifts on both the festivals of lights.Hanukkah and Diwali.Though my mother teases us，I do not mind getting two sets of gifts!
Hanukkah is celebrated on the 25th day of the Jewish month，which is usually sometime in December.On Hanukkah，like most Jewish families，we light a menorah（燭臺） and say a prayer each night.We also say a special prayer on the first night.After that，it is a tradition for my sister and me to do 'hot and cold'，for our hidden Hanukkah gifts.When we walk towards the gift，our parents say 'hot' and when we walk further away，they say 'cold'.We each receive one present every night of Hanukkah.Another part I like about this holiday is seeing family members who we do not see often.My aunt usually stays for a few days，and we sometimes visit other relatives.
Diwali is celebrated on the 13th day of the dark fortnight of the month of Ashwin（October / November）.To celebrate Diwali，my family does a pooja，or prayers，in honor of the goddess Lakshmi.Since she is the goddess of wealth and prosperity，the pooja includes washing silver coins in milk and water.In India，people decorate their houses with lamps，similar to the way you might light up your house for Christmas.My family just places a few candles outside.We also set off firecrackers，which is my favorite part.We often do this activity with friends to add to the excitement.
Both holidays have different histories and stories.We celebrate them in different ways，yet they both have the same meaning.And they both mean family and presents for me!
（1）Why does the author receive gifts on both Hanukkah and Diwali？

B．A kind of Hanukkah gift.
C．A can of festival drink.
D．A riddle written on lights.
（3）We can learn from the text that Hanukkah and Diwali.
A．share the same history and culture
B．a(chǎn)re celebrated by both Jews and Indians
C．a(chǎn)re both related to the legend of lights
D．encourage the families to do their prayers
（4）What is the author's attitude towards Hanukkah and Diwali？

29． I have already forgotten the name of an old lady who was a customer on my paper-delivery route when I was a twelve-year-old boy.Yet it seems like just yesterday that she taught me a lesson in forgiveness that I can only hope to pass on to someone else someday.
On a mindless Saturday afternoon，a friend and I were throwing rocks onto the roof of the old lady's house.We just wanted to observe how the rocks changed to missiles（導彈） as they rolled to the roof's edge and shot out into her yard.
I found myself a perfectly smooth rock and sent it for a ride.The stone was too smooth，however，so it slipped from my hand as I let it go and headed straight for a small window on the old lady's back door.At the sound of broken glass，we took off from the old lady's yard faster than any of our missiles flew off her roof.
I was too much scared !However，a few days later，when I was sure that I hadn't been discovered，I started to feel guilty.She still greeted me with a smile each day when I gave her the paper，but I was no longer able to act comfortable in her presence.
I made up my mind that I would save my paper delivery money，and in three weeks I had the ten dollars that I thought would cover the cost of her window.
