William Lindesay, a famous Great Wall expert and conservationist, and his wife Wu
Qi have traveled the globe by the back paths, providing their sons with a unique growing
environment. Sun hats, backpacks and sneakers (运动鞋)—these are the day-to-day must-
haves for the family.
Most of their trips seem far from relaxing—cultural study in the hot and dry desert, a 53-
kilometer hiking tour of New Zealand, a one-day climb to three English mountaintops and a
six-day train ride from Beijing to Moscow.
Many assume the family must be wealthy and can afford their global travel, but they
are not. Lindesay says they just choose to spend money on travel and eschew pricey hotels
and restaurants where possible. Lindesay mentions the trip to Moscow as an example. Instead
of taking a taxi from the railway station to the hotel, they took the subway. “We crossed the
city for saving money, communicated with local people, and saw they are people just like us,
everywhere. We arrived at our destination feeling comfortable.”
However, their journeys, which can last weeks or months, have sometimes been
inconsistent with their children’s schooling. Wu remembers once Lindesay let their elder son
ask for leave so that they could go to New York for a 45-day lecture tour. Therefore the son
missed his final exam. Things like that bother the family all the time.
Lindesay attaches great importance to learning out of the classroom, saying that
children might score well on school tests, but traveling outside, in distant lands with different
languages, cultures, and political structures, is the real test. “You can only get streetwise on
the street. You can only get worldly-wise when seeing the world,” he says.
14. How can we describe the Lindesays’ trips?
A. Pleasant. B. Challenging. C. relaxing.D. Dangerous.
15. What does the underlined word “eschew” in paragraph 3 mean?
A. Avoid. B. Visit. C. Compare.D. Evaluate.
16. What problem does the family meet when traveling?
A. They suffer from a tight budget. B. They have scheduling conflicts.
C. They are faced with language barriers. D. They hold different educational ideas.
17. Which statement may Lindesay agree with according to the text?
A. Nothing is so necessary for travelers as languages. B. There is no royal road to learning.
C. Actions speak louder than words. D. Man who travels far knows more.
C
Austrian-based food-tech startup Revo Foods announced this week that its 3D-
printed vegan fish filet (素食鱼片) was heading to European grocery store shelves — a first
for 3D-printed food. According to the company’s September 12 press release, the arrival of
the “Filet” represents a key moment in sustainable food, with 3D-printed consumables ready
for industrial mass production. Revo Foods Filet is likely to be just the first of many other
such 3D-printed edible (可食用的) products to soon hit the market.
“Despite dramatic losses of coral reefs and increasing levels of poisons and micro
plastic polluting fish, consumer demand for seafood has skyrocketed in recent decades,” the
company announcement explains, “One promising solution to provide consumers with
sustainable alternatives that do not contribute to overfishing is vegan seafood. The key to the
success of these products lies in recreating a real taste that appeals to consumers.”
The composition of the Filet provides a meat-like texture (口感). 12 ingredients (
) compose Revo’s Filet, such as pea proteins, plant oils and algae extracts. With its high
protein and Ornega-3 contents, eating a Revo Filet is still very much like eating regular
salmon. And thanks to its plant-based ingredients, the Filet has a three week shelf life, a
significant improvement over regular salmon products.
“With the milestone of industrial-scale 3D food printing, we are entering a creative
food revolution, an era where food is being made exactly according to the customers’ needs,”
Revo Foods CEO Robin Simsa said via this week’s announcement.
While Revo’s products are currently only available for European markets, the
company says it is actively working to expand its availability across the globe, with Simsa
telling PopSci the company hopes to enter US markets around 2025.
18. What can we infer from the second paragraph?
A. Revo’s Filet will be eco-friendly. B. Revo Foods is popular in Europe.
C. Edible fish have decreased sharply. D. Most people refuse to accept seafood.
19.What is special about Revo’s Filet?
A. It is a kind of seafood. B. It has a longer shelf life.
C. It has the same taste as salmon. D. It has no food quality problems.
20. What is Simsa’s attitude to the future of 3D-printed food?
A. Doubtful. B. Disappointed. C. Optimistic. D. Worried.
21. What is the text?
A. A short story. B. A research paper. C. An advertisement. D. A news report.
D
When I mentioned to some friends that we all have accents (口音), most of them
proudly replied, “Well, I speak perfect English/Chinese/etc.” But this kind of misses the point.
More often than not, what we mean when we say someone “has an accent” is that their
accent is different from the local one, or that pronunciations are different from our own. But
this definition (定义) of accents is limiting and could give rise to prejudice. Funnily enough,
in terms of the language study, every person speaks with an accent. It is the regular
differences in how we produce sounds that define our accents. Even if you don’t hear it
yourself, you speak with some sort of accent. In this sense, it’s pointless to point out that
someone “has an accent”. We all do!
Every person speaks a dialect (方言), too. In the field of language study, a dialect is
a changed form of a language that is featured by its variations (变化) of structure, phrases and
words. For instance,” You got eat or not? “(meaning “Have you eaten?” ) is an acceptable and
understood question in Singapore Oral English. The fact that this expression would cause a
standard American English speaker to take pause doesn’t mean that Singapore Oral English is
“wrong” or “ungrammatical”. The sentence is well-formed and clearly communicative,
according to native Singapore English speakers’ solid system of grammar. Why should it be
wrong just because it’s different?
We need to move beyond a narrow idea of accents and dialects — for the benefit of
everyone.
Language differences like these provide insights into people’s cultural experiences and
backgrounds. In a global age, the way one speaks is a distinct part of one’s identity (身份).
Most people would be happy to talk about the cultures behind their speech. We’d learn more
