So when I took my seat on the bus going home, I decided my 13 life would not lower my spirit today.
I was dreaming about a better and new life when I was 14 by our new passenger. She was a middle-aged woman with worn-out clothes and messy hair. She got on, aggressively and 15 pushed her way into a front seat, and then turned her glare and 16 on whoever dared to look her way.
All I could feel for this woman was 17 . There was no disgust. Only pity and the familiar knowledge of being faceless, nameless, and 18 to no one. Suddenly, she turned her threatening eyes towards me and very loudly yelled, “Why you so 19 man?”
With a smile, I said “I just came from work.” She then loudly asked if I worked in hell and broke out in laughter..., so I laughed too— 20 her and told her that was funny. Then I asked her her name as I 21 why I was so dirty. Her name was Karen.
In front of all of us on the bus that day, the power of 22 showed its beauty. In front of all of us this woman 23 . Her language, her posture, the tone and lilt of her voice, —even the way she tilted her head when I spoke to her as a 24 changed. As Karen was getting off the bus, she touched me 25 on the arm. With tear-filled eyes, she asked whether I’d be riding the bus the next day. I promised I 26 . We waved to each other and then I got what my life had needed all along: affirmation(认可).
Everyone on the bus had been watching us and then an old woman spoke to me: “Sir, you just changed that woman with your heart. She will never forget how

That day was the first day when I realized I am 29 . People say I gave Karen something that day but actually she 30 me so much more. I now work in the field of mental health. I often tell the story of the power of kindness, and I talk about Karen and unlimited possibilities.

Every month we look at a different artist. We think Haroshi is super cool—he makes sculptures(雕塑) from skateboards.
Haroshi is in his late 30s. He’s a skateboarder but he also makes things from wood. He began skateboarding when he was 15 years old and he loved it. He used to skate every day. Now, if you know anything about skateboarding, you’ll know that skateboards don’t last forever because they break. But Haroshi didn’t throw his out because he was fond of them. Over time he built up a big collection and at the same time he learnt about all the different types of skateboard. Surprisingly, not all skateboards are of the same shape and actually they are often built in different ways. By the time he was 25, he had an enormous collection of old skateboards. He decided he had to do something with them so he started to cut them up. As he was doing that, he noticed some interesting patterns in the wood. He then cut more and stuck them on top of each other. The first thing he created from the wood was a piece of jewelry. He created something new from something old.
Nowadays, however, he is known for his extremely large 3D wooden sculptures. His ideas generally come from skateboarding culture, ranging from skateboarding cats to cool trainers, but also everyday topics such as hurting yourself, getting better, being crazy about something and of course, growing up. All skateboarders will understand these. Haroshi has made over 40 pieces and
高三英语 第 6 页（共 14 页）
each piece takes a very long time. There is no doubt that he is very talented but he’s had no formal art training. He taught himself.
Haroshi held an exhibition in London last month and three of us from @teenattack went along. As we entered the first room, we saw a huge bird that covered one wall. It was absolutely enormous! There was also a sculpture called Ordinary life. It looked like a broken leg—a very common problem, of course. It’s incredible to think that these sculptures are all made from broken skateboards. But there’s something else that is really interesting about Haroshi’s work.
In the twelfth century a sculptor called Unkei placed a glass ball in each of his works to show the heart of the piece. Haroshi also places something inside his sculptures—a piece of broken skateboard. In this way, he gives his sculptures life. We think that is just awesome!
34. What does Paragraph 2 want to tell us? A. Skateboards are built differently. B. Skateboards need to be improved. C. Haroshi collects broken skateboards. D. Haroshi is an excellent skateboarder. 35. What does Haroshi do with old skateboards?
A. He sells them. B. He repairs them. C. He gives them away. D. He makes artworks out of them.
36. From the last 2 paragraphs, we can know .
A. Ordinary life looks like a bird
B. Haroshi’s ideas come from textbooks C. Haroshi has never attended art school D. Haroshi puts glass balls inside his works 37. What can be learnt from the passage?
A. It’s never too old to learn. B. Rome is not built in one day. C. Failure is the mother of success. D. Creativity makes a big difference.

As global temperatures rise, trees around the world are experiencing longer growing seasons, sometimes as much as three extra weeks a year. All that time helps trees grow faster. For the past 100 years, trees have been experiencing fast growth in temperate regions from Maryland to Finland, to Central Europe, where the growth rate of some trees has even sped up nearly 77% since 1870. Assuming wood is just as strong today, those gains would mean more timber(木材) for building, burning, and storing carbon captured from the atmosphere. But is wood really as dense as it used to be?
Hans Pretzsch, a forest scientist at the Technical University of Munich in Germany, and his colleagues wanted to find an answer. They carried out a study of the forests of Central Europe. They started with 41 experimental plots in southern Germany, some of which have been continuously monitored since 1870. Pretzsch and his team took core samples from the trees—which included Norway spruce, sessile oak, European beech, and Scots pine—and analyzed the tree rings using a high-frequency probe.
They found that in all four species, wood density has decreased by 8% to 12%, they report online in Forest Ecology and Management. “We expected a trend of the wood density like this, but not such a strong and significant decrease,” Pretzsch says. Increasing temperatures, and the faster growth they spur, probably account for some of the drop. Another factor, Pretzsch says, is more nitrogen in the soil from agricultural fertilizer(化肥) and vehicle exhaust. Previous studies have linked increased fertilizer use to decreased wood density. Above all, the study suggests that the higher temperatures—combined with pollution from auto exhaust and farms—are making wood weaker, resulting in trees that break more easily and wood that is less durable.
“I am getting worried,” says Richard Houghton, an ecologist at the Woods Hole Research Center in Falmouth, Massachusetts, who was not part of the new study. As the density of the samples dropped, so did their carbon content, by about 50%. That means forests may suffer more damage from storms and may be less efficient at soaking up the greenhouse gas carbon dioxide (CO2) than scientists had thought, Houghton says. 38.
