• 2．On a hot summer afternoon along the Mandavi River，Shweta Hule wraps her sari around her ankles and bends to pick wild "weeds" from the river and drop them into a bowl.The plants will be made into fritters （炸果餅），to be served at the little restaurant attached to the B&B Hule manages in the Indian coastal town of Vengurla.
     Wild edible （可食用的） plants are common in kitchens here.Hule's weed is juicy，which is found in mangrove forests.Harvesting some of the plant is helping conserve the mangroves，a globally endangered ecosystem of salt-tolerant trees that stop coastal erosion （侵蝕） and absorb storm damage.
     Hule is head of Swamini，a self-help group set up by nine women from a fishing community in Vengurla who started Mandavi Eco Tourism in 2017.Vengurla is known for its beautiful beaches and seafood，but the climate crisis has made fishing for a living unsustainable，so people are trying to find other sources of income.They came up with the idea of running mangrove safaris （觀光游） for tourists in Vengurla's Mandavi River.
     The safaris offer visitors a unique hour-long tour of the mangroves.Food has also become a key attraction：local spicy coconut curries，with homegrown or wild vegetables.Tourists are encouraged to go crabbing，and their catch is cooked and served.
     Hule only discovered recently that the weed was edible when she met tourists from another coastal city.She researched these leaves and learned that the salty plant is rich in vitamins.She made her own version of the fritters，with chickpea flour，and presented it at the wild vegetable festival. "It was an instant hit.This boosted the confidence to include these fritters in our restaurant menu，" says Hule.
     Swamini's lodging house also serves vegetarian meals and plates of fish and crab sourced from the river. "The satisfaction after the visitors enjoy our meal is the real currency.We had guests from London who were so happy with our food that they took down the recipe.Such people help our business grow.What more can we want？" says Hule.
  
  （1）Which of the following can best describe the example of Shweta Hule？

  
  A．Do as the Romans do.
  B．Strike while the iron is hot.
  C．Kill two birds with one stone.
  D．Bite off more than you can chew.
  （2）What does Swamini offer to visitors？

  
  A．Eco-tours and accommodation.
  B．Fishing guide service.
  C．Vegetable growing techniques.
  D．Hands-on cooking classes.
  （3）Why were Hule's fritters well-received？

  
  A．They were less expensive.
  B．They were traditional.
  C．They had their own features.
  D．They got strongly promoted.
  （4）How did Hule feel about tourists' obtaining her food recipe？

  
  A．Lost.
  B．Proud.
  C．Worried.
  D．Curious.

• 3．A new study suggests classic paintings by well-known Impressionists Joseph Turner and Claude Monet may have been influenced by air pollution during the Industrial Revolution.
     The study，published in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences by authors from Harvard and Sorbonne universities，analyzed 60 oil paintings by Turner from 1796 to 1850 and 38 paintings by Monet from 1864 to 1901.
     Scientists don't know exactly how polluted the cities were during that time for lack of data.However，researchers say examining the works of Turner and Monet can give a picture of long-term environmental change with the air pollution.
     In particular，researchers said changes in local sulfur dioxide emissions from burning coal may explain changes in the colour contrast and intensity of Turner，Monet，and others' works，even after taking into account the artistic trends and subject matter of the time.
     Scientists successfully measured painters' representation of nature，focusing on differences in local weather patterns which influenced colour in works painted in different parts of Europe.Paintings' done in Britain generally feature a paler blue sky than other works in other parts of the continent.Generally，artists can historically accurately represent their environment，so Turner and Monet were chosen because they are famous for their landscape and cityscape paintings and also because they were active during the Industrial Revolution，when air pollution grew at a rate never seen before.
     Additionally，researchers say that as the air in London and Paris became more polluted，the cities would appear hazier to the eyes as well as in photographs.By comparing the paintings of Turner and Monet to pictures from the era，they were able to determine the artists were at least partly influenced by the change in emissions.
  
  （1）How did the researchers conduct the study？

  
  A．By referring to relevant historical records.
  B．By comparing the paintings of Turner and Monet.
  C．By relating the paintings to the air conditions then.
  D．By analyzing the data during the Industrial Revolution.
  （2）What did the researchers find in the works of Turner and Monet？

  
  A．Air pollution at that time.
  B．Change in subject matter.
  C．Social trends of the period.
  D．Development of photography.
  （3）What can we learn from paragraph 5？

  
  A．European artists preferred landscape paintings.
  B．Scientists focused on studying weather patterns.
  C．Turner and Monet intended to present pollution.
  D．Britain suffered from air pollution most in Europe.
  （4）What is the purpose of the text？

  
  A．To inform people of a new discovery.
  B．To instruct people to appreciate paintings.
  C．To introduce the Industrial Revolution.
  D．To call on people to protect the environment.
