In fact, the suit is made out of over300 plastic grocery bags.Ferrigno, who once worked as a tailor before starting a family, got the idea for her unique hand-made suit last August. She was at a family picnic and saw one of the other guests carrying a purse made from re-purposed plastic bags. It attracted her, so she and her daughter searched for instructions on how to make one on YouTube. The 75- year-old ended up making a purse from colorful plastic bags. But that was only the beginning. After finishing her second plastic bag purse，Ferrigno realized she needed something to match it with，so last November she told her daughter she was going to make a skirt and jacket suit out of plastic bags，as a winter project.Rosa started by cutting up the plastic bags into strips(条)and then tying them together to make longer, yam- like strips that could be knitted. But to knit the plastic yam, she needed large needles that didn’ t exist on the market, so she made them on her own.The suit took Rosa two months to complete. The jacket was made out of 170 plastic bags, and the skirt required another 140. Although she didn’ t even use a pattern when knitting the impressive suit, it ended up fitting her perfectly, and when she finally showed it off at the supermarket earlier this month, everyone went crazy.“We love it when our customers reuse or recycle grocery bags, but never have we seen a work of art like Rosa 's! It's really fantastic! ”Jo Natale, the supermarket chain 's vice president of media relations, said,24. What makes Rosa Ferrigno’s new suit special?A.Its unique way of knitting.B.

By consulting her daughter.C. By watching YouTube videos.D. By asking a tailor for instructionsf26. What do Jo Natale’s words in the last paragraph suggest?A. She thinks highly of Rosa's behavior.B. Rosa’s work of art wi ll become popular.C. The potential of grocery bags needs further developing.D. She thinks all customers should follow Rosa’s footsteps.27. What can be inferred about Rosa from the text?A.She does nothing without careful planning.B. She likes showing off her knitting skills.C.She is quite able and patient.D. She is good at matching clothes.CSpending time in nature improves children 's academic achievement and healthy development, concludes a new analysis examining hundreds of studies.Ming Kuo, a professor in the Department of Natural Resources (资源)and Environmental Sciences at the University of Illinois, says she expected the important review to lead to more questions than answers. Instead, all signs pointed to the same outcome ：“ It 's time to take nature seriously as a resource for learning，”she says. “ In fact, the trend of increasing indoor instruction in hopes of maximizing standardized test performance may be doing more harm than good. ”Kuo and her colleagues found that nature boosts learning in many ways一it helps focus attention, relieve stress , increase physical activity and fitness as well as student self-motivation and enjoyment, etc. Besides, nature creates a calmer, quieter and safer setting for learning.While none of these effects is entirely new, the analysis has pulled for the first time all of the lines of evidence together. Collectively，the findings make a much stronger case for the importance of time in nature. They also provide an explanation for something that has been puzzling scientists—why even small doses of nature sometimes have surprisingly great effects.These effects extend beyond academic achievement. Time in nature appears to develop personal skills and qualities important for future success, and may play an important role in helping children grow up to be environmental stewards. The analysis will surely make schools think about how to better plan their schoolyards and curricula.“ Even small exposures to nature are beneficial. If you're indoors，having a viewof your yard as opposed to facing the wall, that makes a difference. That’s one of the things that give us more confidence that we' re seeing a real cause-and-effect relationship，”Kuo says. “The bigger the dose of nature we give a person, the bigger the effect we see in them. ”28. The underlined word “boosts” in paragraph 3 most probably means “A.promotesB. makes... interestingC.simplifiesD. makes...worthwhile29. What does the text say about the analysis examining hundreds of studies?A.Its finding is completely new.B.It remains a puzzle to scientists.C.Its outcome is quite convincing.D.It results in more questions than answers.30. What inspiration can schools draw from the analysis?A. They should raise their students' environmental awareness.B. They should make all their curricula closely related to nature.C. They should move all their students out of the classrooms.D. They should green their schoolyards as much as possible.31. Which of the following reflects Kuo’s opinion?A. Indoor instruction should be stressed to improve test performance.B. Nature has long been taken seriously as a learning resource.C. Small exposures to nature make almost no difference.D. When it comes to time in nature, more is better.DChoosing to forget something might take more mental effort than trying to remember it, researchers at The University of Texas discovered. Their findings suggest that in order to forget an unwanted experience, more attention should be focused on it.“ Decades of research has shown that we have the ability to forget something out of our own free will, but how our brains do that is still being questioned. Once we can figure out how memories are weakened and come up with ways to control this, we can design treatment to help people rid themselves of unwanted memories，” said Jarrod Lewis-Peacock, the study* s senior author.Memories are dynamic constructions of the brain that regularly get updated， adjusted and reorganized through experience. The brain is constantly remembering and forgetting information—and much of this happens automatically during sleep.Their findings not only confirmed that humans have the ability to control what they forget, but that successful intentional forgetting requires more activity than what is required to remember.“ A proper level of brain activity is important to this forgetting mechanism. Too strong, it will strengthen the memory ； too weak, you won，t change it,” said Tracy Wang, lead author of the study. “Importantly，it’s the intention to forget that increases the activation of the memory, and when this activation hits the proper level sweet spot, that，s when it leads to later forgetting of that experience. ”The researchers also found that participants were more likely to forget scenes than faces. “ We，re learning how these mechanisms in our brain respond to different types of information, and it will take a lot of further research before we understand how to use our ability to forget,” said Lewis-Peacock. “Hopefully we can find out how we process and get rid of those really strong memories, which can have a powerful effect on our health and well-being. ”32.What remains a puzzle to researchers?A. How our memories can be strengthened.B. How our brains voluntarily forget something.C. What effect unwanted memories have on our brains.D. Whether our brains can voluntarily forget something.33. Which of the following words can best describe memories?A.Casual.B. Stable.C. Active,D. Permanent.34. It can be learned from the text that .A. it requires less attention to forget than to rememberB. the more active the brain is, the faster it forgetsC. humans can，t keep memories under controlD. humans forget faces less easily than scenes35. What can be a suitable title for the text?A. What It Takes to Forget an Unwanted ExperienceB. Strong Memories Have a Great Influence on HealthC. Forgetting Uses More Brain Power than Remembering .D.
