Jason Detzel was bored with his work as a psychologist,and he was tired of spending all day in an office. Dr. Detzel felt that in the city he was losing touch with something important,so he quit his job and started a farm.
He and his business partner found 80 acres of land in a small town and signed a 10-year lease (租約) . While some farms used a lot of machinery,they decided they wanted to do as much as possible with their own hands. They built a corral(畜欄) for the cows,pig shelters and a house for the chickens.
“I’m definitely happier being out in the fields with my animals. Even if there are bad days,I'm still happy,” Dr. Detzel said. “When you’ re inside all day,you don't get to see nature working."
“The job is different every day on the farm. It's amazing,” he said. “You.’ re a farmer. You’ re an animal doctor. You’ re a pipe fitter. You’ re definitely a carpenter a lot. You're a jack of all trades(萬事通) master of none. That's what I like about it."
Learning how to manage the animals had been one of the biggest challenges of starting the farm,Dr. Detzel said. He learned that it was important to stick to a routine. That's why he rang the same bell and called to the cows in the same way each day. The routine helped keep the cows calm and cooperative.
It wasn't easy for Dr. Detzel to be accepted by the other farmers in his community. With all his tattoos(文身) ,he looked very different. When he started the farm he was in his early 30s,while most other farmers were older. There weren't many young people starting farms,because it had become harder and harder for small family farms to make much income.
Dr. Detzel said that began to change when more people became locavores. A locavore is someone who tries to eat food grown and raised nearby. By shopping at their local farmers’ market,many locavores hope to reduce the amount of energy used to ship food long distances. Many locavores like knowing where their food comes from and being able to talk to the farmers about what chemicals were used and how the animals were treated.
21. What was the main purpose of Dr. Detzel starting a farm?
A. To get back to nature.
B. To make more money.
C. To study agricultural machinery.
D. To keep in touch with his friends.
22. What did Dr. Detzel like about his job on the farm?
A. He often traded at a profit.
B. He was good at many things.
C. He could do many types of work.
D. He could get to know many farmers.
23. To manage the animals,Dr. Detzel.
A. followed a routine
B. used different bells
C. learned from other farmers
D. called professionals for help
24. A locavore prefers.
A. self-produced food
B. healthy organic food
C. food from distant places
D. food grown by local farmers

第三部分閱讀理解(共20小題;每小題2分,滿分40分)
A
Russian police have launched a novel attempt to get drivers to slow down at zebra crossings by having stripe-painted horses as zebras walk across on the busiest streets in some of the big cities in an attempt to improve road safety and raise awareness among Russia's notoriously careless drivers.
The light grey horses,painted with black stripes,carried signs on their backs reading: Careful,children are on their way to school. The police dispatched (派遣) the fake zebras to several different locations in the Russian capital,where officials in orange vests walked them over zebra crossings and handed out flyers to passing drivers.
Some held up rainbow-coloured umbrellas over the painted animals to protect them from rain,footage aired on television showed.
Russian roads are notoriously dangerous and drivers still rarely take the initiative to avoid pedestrians. Nearly half of all traffic accidents in the country5s big cities are caused by cars hitting pedestrians,and a third of those occur on crossings,according to traffic police figures published last month.
In the first six months of this year,378 people were killed and more than 6 ,600 injured on pedestrian crossings in Russia,according to police. In Moscow alone,43 people were killed,including two children. Though police officials said that only safe paints would be used on the animals,animal rights activists still disagreed with the idea,accusing the police of “treating animals like garbage”.

D. To tell people it is dangerous to cross the streets.
42. What does the underlined word “them” refer to?
A. The zebras. B. The horses.
C. The policemen. D. The drivers.
43. From the passage we can see that .
A. most of the Russian drivers are careless
B. the driving skills of Russian drivers are bad
C. Russian drivers often ignore traffic lights

A. are where people can cross the streets safely
B. offer animals the best place to cross the streets
