26、Go fly a kite
Learning how to fly a kite is simple and flying kites can be a fun form of exercise.
Of course, the first thing you need is a kite and a ball of string (线). 【1】 Then wait for a windy day.
When the perfect day arrives, find an open space, such as field. 【2】
Before flying your kite, find out which way the wind is blowing. 【3】 To begin flying your kite, stand with your back to the wind and hold the kite up so the wind can catch it. If the day is not very windy, you may need to get your kite started by running.
【4】 At the same time, walk backwards a few steps to keep the string tight. Now that your kite is up in the air, you can decide how long to fly it and how high you want it to go.
【5】 Slowly wind up (卷起) the string. Try not to pull your kite in too fast or it may crash (坠落).
Flying kite is a great way to spend a windy afternoon. If you follow these steps carefully, you will have something more fun to do than sitting inside and watching TV. So on the next windy day, get up off the sofa. Go fly a kite!
A.You can do this by throwing grass into the air.
B.Finally, you will need to bring your kite down.
C.You can buy your kite and string at a toy shop.
D.Follow the instructions to put your kite together.
E.Nothing beats seeing a kite sail high into the clouds.
F.Don’t fly your kite near trees because it can get caught.
G.Once the wind catches your kite, let out more string so it can climb higher.
27、From 1990 to 2000, fishermen trying to get swordfish (剑鱼) off the coast of California accidentally caught and killed over 100 sea turtles (海龟), and injured many more. In 2001, the government set up the Pacific Leatherback Conservation Area (PLCA), an area off the coast of California where fishing boats are not allowed to enter from August to November. Since then, the number of turtles killed by mistake has fallen rapidly, but a small number of animals still die from being caught in fishing nets each year. And at the same time, the once $15 million swordfish industry has become a $ 2 million industry.
Scientists are hoping to find a way to not only protect sea turtles and other endangered creatures but also help fishermen make a living. For this, many scientists are looking at dynamic ocean management to help fishing boats meet fish where they are and avoid catching other creatures by mistake.
The first paper to suggest that the fish living in the open ocean should be guarded with fluid, ever-changing zones of protection, came out in 2000. Larry Crowder, a professor at Hopkins Marine Station, remembers reading it and thinking, “Cool idea, but it will never work.” In 2000, scientists didn’t have the computer power to cheaply test statistical models or deal with satellite data quickly. They didn’t have enough data dealing with fish or satellite data on ocean conditions, either.
Now scientists can download satellite data of oceans in minutes and attach satellite archival tag to sea animals to track their movements. They first collect data by marking the creatures, collecting reports from fishing boats, or other tracking ways. Then they compare that data with weather conditions, the time of year, and any other data that can be sensed. Finally, they can predict where fish probably are.
Crowder and his workmates used the data to develop a tool called EcoCast during the 2012 and 2015 fishing seasons, they could have fished in at least 125,000 square miles, without high risk of hunting turtles.
【1】The government hoped that PLCA and its rules could .
A.prevent fishing in the PLCA
B.help collect data for future research
C.protect the creatures in the area to some degree
D.make the public realize the importance of our environment
【2】Larry Crowder thought dynamic ocean management was at first.
A.unrealistic
B.stupid
C.possible
D.interesting
【3】What does Paragraph 4 mainly tell us?
A.A great way to collect data.
B.Some technology fruits in this field
C.A scientific way to find new ocean animals
D.The way dynamic ocean management works
【4】What should be the advantage of using EcoCast?
A.It protects the ocean from pollution.
B.It helps support the fishing industry.
C.It prevents fishermen from getting lost while fishing.
D.It both protects ocean animals and supports the fishing industry.
28、A Little Is A Lot For Those With Nothing
Each year, 22 million people die from preventable causes, such as polluted water or the lack of nutrition, according to a new report from the World Health Organization. These groups are taking some of the top lights:

UNICEF supplies iron supplements (补充) to women and children in more than 100 countries, preventing anemia (贫血症), low birth weight and death. Their greeting cards, calendars and gifts help fund the program; visit www.unicef.org
**** Mercy Corps fed more than 150,000 mouths in 2003. Still, more than one-quarter of children worldwide are underweight. One dollar helps feed 15 kids in developing countries like India; learn more at www.mercycorps.org.

29、Many of us like to eat out and treat ourselves to delicious food. We are used to choosing hearty, fat-filled dishes and sugary desserts, which are not easily cooked at home.
The recent rise of light meals, however, gives us a smarter choice. According to Economic Daily, low-calorie, low-fat and high-fiber meals have become popular in China’s restaurants and online delivery platforms.
The country saw a rapid increase of restaurants concentrating on light meal. From just 600 in 2017 to more than 3,500 in 2018. According to a report published by Meituan a major online food delivery platform, the number of light meals ordered online also rise 75 percent from the previous year.
Having a light meal, however, doesn’t mean eating only vegetables. Different from the meat-free lifestyle, a typical light dish avoids oily, salty and spicy food. Instead, it contains things like boiled meat, whole grains, fruits and vegetables.
Healthy nutrients are the theme of the light meal. These dishes are useful for keeping healthy and controlling your weight. That’s probably why so many people, especially the youths are into them.
They see it as “a great way to avoid getting fat,” wrote the Telegraph.
“After eating several light meals, I now prefer light flavours,” Zou Jing a college teacher in Wuhan, told China Daily. She shared a picture of her lunch: a mixture of beef eggs, corn, mushrooms and cherry tomatoes.
These changes in eating behaviour are connected to deeper changes in how people think about food, says Walter Willett. Chairman of the nutrition department at the Hanard T. Chan School of Public Health, U.S.,“ Diet quality, not quantity is important for both weight control and long-term well-being.” Willett told The New York Times. So the next time you have a party with friends, try a light meal, it will satisfy, not only your stomachs but may be also your hearts.
