Mr. Healing is the perfect place to go when youre on a short work or school break and you need to catch up on sleep. The cafe offers a relaxing massage (按摩) in various ways, depending on how much time you have and how you choose to spend it.The 20-minute session (一段时间) is priced at $3.5, the 30-minute massage costs $7, and the 50-minute session is $9, all of which also include a drink. Once you make your choice, you are taken to the “healing center”. You are asked to take off your shoes as well as any jewelry that might damage the chairs, after which you can choose a massage mode, from “stretch (舒展)” to “sleep”. You can start with a stretch for a few minutes, and then switch to sleep if you want to take a short break. After the relaxing session es to an end, you are taken back to the cafe area to enjoy a coffee.“I have to sit on a chair and stare at the puter all day due to my job; the healing room was truly effective for me to get rid of my stress from weekdays,” said Kim Eun-kyum, a 24-year-old officer.Some have described Mr. Healing and other similar relaxation cafes in South Korea as simple fashions, but there are also those who see them as a business model in the long term, because they offer a service that Koreans really need.31.

But the decrease of trees and use of fire to clear land have caused a lot of damage to the area. Officials say Zimbabwe lost more than 1.5 million hectares of forest in xx. This is mostly because of local munities cutting the trees for firewood or setting fires in forested areas to make hunting easier.But now a non-profit group, called Environment Africa, is trying to improve the situation. Environment Africa is teaching farmers to raise bees. The group is working in the Mutasa district, near the countrys border with Mozambique. And it has already helped about 1,500 farmers. Benjamin Chatambura is one such farmer. He has set up about 250 beehives (蜂箱) near his home. He sells the honey the bees produce and uses the money to feed his family. He likes having bees on his land because the insects help him and the forest. “The trees provide us with flowers,” he says. “That is the food for the bees to produce the honey. If there were a way, I would like more land to plant more different types of trees.”Lawrence Nyagwande is with Environment Africa. He says some farmers are earning as much as $1,000 a month from selling honey. The average government worker in Zimbabwe earns just about $500 a month.Nyagwande says, “beekeeping is helping improve the countrys forests. Now if you look around, the forest in Mutasa is improving because people are also working together with the nearby timber (木材) industries to fight the forest fires.”This project has caught the attention of the government. Violet Makoto represents Zimbabwes Forestry mission, a government agency that works to protect forests. She says the mission hopes local people will take up beekeeping and end the use of fire to clear land.34. What does Environment Africa do to save the forests?A. Assist local farmers to sell honey at a high price.B. Help farmers make a living through beekeeping.C. Plant more different types of trees with farmers.D. Join the farmers in fighting fires in the forests.35. What can we learn from Paragraph 4? A. Trees are important to bees. B. Beekeepers ine is large. C. Timber industries are harmful. D. Forest loss is being worse.36. What is the governments attitude towards the project? A. Passive. B. Doubtful. C. Indifferent. D. Supportive. CAs is well known, cacaos seeds provide something loved by billions: chocolate. Like other crops, cacaos are under constant threat from diseases and environmental challenges. The situation is exacerbated by our tendency to grow only a few varieties with similar genetic features (基因特点). “Most varieties produced worldwide belong to a narrow set of clones selected in the 1940s,” said Wilbert Phillips-Mora, a botanist. Therefore, monly planted varieties of cacaos are easily affected by the same diseases, which can spread quickly.Cacao production brought wealth to Costa Rica until the late 1970s, when a kind of fungus (真菌) spread around the country, and by 1983 Costa Rican exports of cacao beans had reduced by 94%. The industry there has never recovered. And though the Costa Rican outbreak is history, the fungus continues to spread. The most recent outbreak in Jamaica may have been the result of traders moving between Costa Rica and Jamaica, picking infected (感染的) cacao fruit as a snack. That outbreak has proved the fungus could stand more distant travel than previously known.Many other diseases also influence the tree. These difficulties make cacaos ever less appealing to producers. Yet demand for chocolate is rising. A chocolate shortage may arrive soon.That is where Dr. Phillips-Moras project es in. The great diversity in the International Cacao Collection in Turrialba may help avoid the danger. It has a collection of 1,235 types of cacao trees. In the 1980s, Dr. Phillips-Mora began to find the most naturally tolerant and productive cacaos, then painstakingly hybridized (杂交) the candidates to create new varieties. It is a long process. Finally in xx, Dr. Phillips-Mora produced his first group of hybrid cacao varieties. Unlike other modern efforts to increase output, Dr. Phillips-Moras program regards fine mouthfeels as the first consideration. New varieties that dont impress consumers are thrown away. 37. Which of the following can replace the underlined word “exacerbated”? A. Improved. B. Worsened. C. Handled. D. Tested. 38. How is the outbreak in Jamaica special? A. It happened unexpectedly. B. It has the fastest speed of spread. C. It brought about the heaviest loss. D. It shows the funguss survival ability. 39. What does Dr. Phillips-Mora value most about the new varieties? A. Taste quality. B. Potential profit. C. Growing period. D. Environmental influence. 40. What is the best title of the text? A. Fungus the main threat to cacaos. B. Efforts to preserve the diversity of cacaos. C. Save the worlds favorite treat chocolate. D. Growing markets make hybrid worthwhile.第二节 根据短文内容，从短文中的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。(共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分)Many high school students feel that they need to plan their future before graduation.
