When her grandmother
’
s health began to worsen last autumn, Mary would make the drive
from Washington, DC to Winchester, V
A every few days.

She hated highway driving, finding it ugly and boring. She preferred to take winding country
roads to her grandmother
’
s hospital. When she drove through the rocky town of Harpers Ferry,
the beauty of the rough waters was always appealing to her.

Toward
the
end
of
her
journey,
Mary
had
to
get
on
highway
81.
It
was
here
that
she
discovered a surprising bit of beauty during one of her trips. Along the shoulder of the highway,
there
was
a
long stretch of wild flowers. They were thin and delicate and purple, and moved
back and forth in the wind as if whispering poems to each other.

The first time she saw the flowers, Mary was seized by an uncontrollable urge to pull over
on the highway and pull a bunch from the soil. She carried them into her grandmother
’
s room
when she arrived at the hospital and placed them in a vase by her bed.

For a moment her grandmother seemed more lucid
（清醒的）
than usual. She thanked Mary

for the flowers,
commented on
their
beauty
and
asked where
she
had
gotten
them. Mary
was overjoyed by the ability of the flowers to wake something up inside her sick grandmother.

Afterwards, Mary began carrying scissors in the car during her trips to visit her grandmother.
She would quickly glide onto the shoulder, jump out of the car, and clip a bunch of flowers. Each
time
Mary
placed
the
flowers
in
the
vase,
her
grandmother
’
s
eyes
would
light
up
and
they
would have a splendid conversation.

One morning in late October, Mary got a call that her grandmother had taken a turn for the
worse. Mary was in such a hurry to get to her grandmother that she sped past her flower spot.
She decided to turn around, head several miles back, and cut a bunch.

Mary
arrived
at
the
hospital
to
find
her
grandmother
very
weak
and
unresponsive.
She
placed the flowers in the vase and sat down to hold her grandmother
’
s hand. She felt a squeeze
on her fingers. It was the last conversation they had.



24. Why did Mary prefer to take country roads to the hospital

A. To get on highway 81 more easily.

B. To enjoy the natural view along the roads.
C. To pick wild flowers for her grandmother.

D. To spend less time driving to the destination.

25. When Mary placed the flowers by her grandmother
’
s bed, her grandmother
A. was overjoyed by the flowers

B. commented on Mary
’
s beauty

C. came alive at the sight of the flowers

D. was curious about the type of the flowers

26. What do we know from the passage

A. Mary discovered the wild flowers along the country roads.

.

B. Mary
’
s last conversation with her grandmother was a silent one.

C. Mary headed several miles back because she sped past the hospital.

D. Mary
’
s grandmother had passed away before she arrived at the hospital.

27. What does the passage convey to us

A. Beauty in nature can be powerful.
B. Love has no beginning or ending.

C. Life is as beautiful as summer flowers.

D. Flowers have the magic to cure diseases.



C

Close
to
the
North
Pole,
remote
and
rocky
Plateau
Mountain
in
the
Norwegian
archipelago of Svalbard seems an unlikely spot for any global effort to safeguard agriculture. In
this cold and deserted environment, no grains, no gardens, no trees can grow. Yet at the end of a
130-meter-long
tunnel
cut
out
of
solid
stone
is
a
room
filled
with
humanity
’
s
most
precious
treasure, the largest and most diverse seed collection more than a half- billion seeds.

A quiet rescue mission is under way. With growing evidence that unchecked climate change
will seriously affect food production and threaten the diversity of crops around the world, the
Svalbard
Global
Seed
Vault
represents
a
major
step
towards
ensuring
the
preservation
of
hundreds of thousands of crop varieties. This is a seed collection, but more importantly, it is a
collection of the traits found within the seeds: the genes that give one variety resistance to a
particular pest and another variety tolerance for hot, dry weather.

Few people will ever see or come into contact with the contents of this vault. In sealed boxes,
behind
multiple
locked
doors,
monitored
by
electronic
security
systems,
enveloped
in
below-
zero temperatures, and surrounded by tons of rock, hundreds of millions of seeds are protected
in their mountain fortress. Frozen in such conditions inside the mountain, seeds of most major
crops will remain
viable
for hundreds of years, or longer. Seeds of some are capable of retaining
their ability to grow for thousands of years.

Everyone can look back now and say that the Seed Vault was a good and obvious idea, and
that of course the Norwegian government should have approved and funded it. But back in 2004,
when the Seed Vault was proposed, it was viewed as a crazy, impractical, and expensive idea.

We knew that nothing would provide a definite guarantee. But we were tired, fed up, and
frankly scared of the steady, greater losses of crop diversity. The Seed Vault was built by optimists
who
wanted
to
do
something
to
preserve
options
so
that
humanity
and
its
crops
might
be
better
prepared
for
change.
If
it
simply resupplied
seed
gene
banks
with
samples
those
gene
banks had lost, this would repay our efforts.

The
Seed
Vault
is
about
hope
and
commitment
—
about
what
can
be
done
if
countries
come
together
and
work
cooperatively
to
accomplish
something
significant,
long-lasting,
and
worthy of who we are and wish to be.
