California bums every year. But among a record-breaking heatwave, 2020 is the worst burning year yet. As of the September 2020, more than 7,600 fires burned over 2.5m acres of land. The season ran for more than several months.

That fits a long-term trend, for California's wild fires are getting steadily worse. Large fires in the 2010s burned 6.8m acres on average, up from 3.3m acres in the 1990s. The fire season in 2020 lasted nearly three months longer than it did in the 1970s. Over the past decade, the state has spent an average of $3.7bn a year fighting fires. Add the cost of rebuilding, treating victims and restoration, and that is perhaps a tenth of the total cost.
The reason is a double blow of climate change and development. More homes are being built next to forests, in what experts call the "wild-land-urban interface" (WUI). A 2018 study estimated that roughly a third of American homes were in the WUL Pricey housing has pushed people in California onto cheaper land close to the wilderness. At the same time, climate change is lengthening the dry season, which stores up fuel for fires. In California, a “huge drought" -- in which dry years become more common and wet ones scarcer (稀少)-- is making matters even worse.
Since neither trend shows much sign of turning around, people on America's west coast will have to learn to co-exist with more and more frequent fires. not that different to building on an earthquake active region," says Max Moritz, a wildfire expert at the University of California at Santa Barbara. He suggests that houses should be built near water or open agricultural lands, which can offer a useful barrier.

C. By providing statistics.
D. By following time order.
29. Why are more houses being built next to forests?

A. Life is hopeless for people on America's west coast.
B. Great potential danger goes with the houses in WUL
C. Wildfire experts should study where to build houses.
D. People should live away from earthquake active regions.

Teens who have good, supportive relationships with their teachers enjoy better health as adults, according to research published by an American research center.
“This research suggests that improving students' relationships with teachers could have positive and long-lasting effects beyond just academic success," said Jinho Kim, a professor at Korea University and author of the study. "It could also bring about health implications in the long run.”
Previous research has suggested that teens' social relationships might be linked to health outcomes in adulthood. However, it is not clear whether the link between teen relationships and lifetime health is causal （因果的）-it could be that other factors, such as different family backgrounds, might contribute to both relationship problems in adolescence and to poor health in adulthood. Also, most research has focused on teens' relationships with their peers （同龄人）, rather than on their relationships with teachers.
To explore those questions further, Kim analyzed data on nearly 20,000 participants from the Add Health study, a national study in the U.S. that followed participants from seventh grade into early adulthood. The participant pool included more than 3,400 pairs of siblings（兄弟姐妹）. As teens, participants answered questions, like “How often have you had trouble getting along with other students and your teachers?" As adults, participants were asked about their physical and mental health.
Kim found that participants who had reported better relationships with both their peers and teachers in middle and high school also reported better physical and mental health in their mid-20s. However, when he controlled for family background by looking at pairs of siblings together, only the link between good teacher relationships and adult health remained significant.
The results suggest teacher relationships are more important than previously realized and that schools should invest in training teachers on how to build warm and supportive relationships with their students. "This is not something that most teachers receive much training in," Kim said, “but it should be.”
32. What does the underlined word “implications" in Paragraph 2 refer to?
A. Recipes. B. Habits. C. Benefits. D. Risks.
33. What is Paragraph 3 mainly about?
A. Poor health in adolescence.
B. Limitations of the previous research.
C. Teens' relationships with their peers.
D. Factors affecting health in adulthood.
34. What does Kim's research show?
A. Good adult health depends on teens' good teachers.
B. Good family background promises long-term adult health.
C. Healthy peer relationships leads to students' academic success.
D. Positive student-teacher relationship helps students' adult health.
35. Where does this text probably come from?
A. A health magazine. B. A medical report.
C. A term paper. D. A family survey.

The Art of Staying Motivated
There are days when just reading about how to keep motivated seems too much trouble, let alone doing anything about it. 36 You will miss your assignment, fail your degree or lose your friends.
37 While you need to listen if your teacher says he has never read a worse essay, try to concentrate on the positives. Maybe you have been praised for your imaginative use of research material, or for your enthusiastic approach to the subject. Enthusiasm is a great motivator, so try to get excited about what you are doing. 38
If you can't get enough excitement about the subject of your degree to keep you going, think about all the other reasons there are for getting on with things. Consider how learned you will become once you get through the books on your reading list. 39
40 There is nothing more motivating than fearing that they are going to get a better mark than you, just by putting in more work. Enjoy your competitiveness, and don't let anyone else get ahead.
If none of the above works, there's always the option of leaving post-it notes around your room telling you to “Just Do It”.
A. Just dust yourself off and press forward.
B. But avoid beating yourself up over failures.
C. Remember you're not the only one that failed.
D. Your friends are useful as a source of competition.
E. More passion for your work will help face challenges.
F. So to get motivated, think about the resulting effects if you don't.
G. Imagine yourself on graduation day, holding the check Granny promised.
