26、You know, I keep telling all my students to keep practicing English. But, then, how do you do that？ Well, some changes on a daily basis will help you to improve your English language, so let's have a look.

Staying informed about what's happening in the world is a great habit—do that in English! Rather than picking up a newspaper in your native language, start picking up English newspapers.

Keep a book
Every night, spend five minutes writing about what you did throughout the day.【4】.Also you can add new phrases or new words that you have learned. And then, whenever you want to refer to them, you can just quickly have a look.
Speak in English with someone

C．Find a partner to practice the language
D．And you can just write up a small story
E．Now don't be embarrassed about doing that

27、 A loving father lost much weight after being shamed into dieting when he became so fat that he couldn’t play with his young daughter. Chris Willis, 47, weighed 172 kg following a lifetime of fatty foods.
The dad cut out all the fatty foods that he had enjoyed, and began exercising. He now weighs 105 kg after losing 10 kg every month since July. Chris had to take long rests just to climb the stairs or walk more than a few yards, saying, “The hardest thing was seeing my little girl in the garden and not being able to join in because I was so unhealthy. But now I am making up for the lost time — we do so much together and it is just great.”
Before switching (转变) to a healthy lifestyle, Chris would have five slices of bread for breakfast as a midmorning meal before a full English breakfast. He would then have a sandwich, a large pack of crisps and a pasty for lunch before chewing a whole packet of biscuits in the afternoon. For dinner, Chris would demolish a chicken curry, and ice cream, and also four pints of beer before feeding on fatty snacks all evening.
Chris said, “At 13, I was 118 kg and I remember a teacher pointing this out to the whole school. From then on I was picked on and bullied (欺负). My weight went up and up. But I now have a newfound freedom. My family and friends have been so supportive and my wife and daughter are so pleased for me. In fact, it’s them that I did it for more than anyone else. The whole journey has been amazing and I am still shocked myself that I have managed to lose so much weight.” Chris is now aiming for a new target weight of 96 kg.

C.He was too unhealthy to play with his daughter.

28、 Will it matter if you don’t take your breakfast? A short time ago, a test was given in the United States. People of different ages, from 12 to 83, were asked to have a test. During the test, these people were given all kinds of breakfast, and sometimes they got no breakfast at all. Scientists wanted to see how well their bodies worked when they had eaten different kinds of breakfast.
The results show that if a person eats a right breakfast, he or she will work better than if he or she has no breakfast. If a student has fruit, egg, bread and milk before going to school, he or she will learn more quickly and listen more carefully.
The result is opposite to what some people think. Having no breakfast will not help you lose weight. This is because people become so hungry at noon that they eat too much for lunch. They will gain weight (增加体重) instead of losing it. You will lose more weight if you decrease your other meals.
【1】During the test, the people were given ________.
A.no breakfast at all B.little food for breakfast
C.very rich breakfast D.different foods or nothing
【2】The results show that ________.
A.a person will work better if he or she only has fruit and milk
B.breakfast has little to do with a person’s work
C.breakfast has great effect (影响) on work and studies
D.girl students should have little for breakfast
【3】According to the passage, some people think that if you don’t have breakfast you will _________.
A.lose weight B.work better
C.be healthier D.lose your way
【4】The word “decrease” in the last sentence means _______.
A.增加 B.放弃
C.减少 D.享用
29、 Cambridge Dictionary has named 'up cycling' as its Word of the Year 2019.
Upcycling was chosen as the 'Word of the Day' which resonated （共鸣）most strongly with followers on the Dictionary's Instagram account. The noun— explained as the activity of making new furniture, objects, etc. out of old or used things or waste material — received more likes than any other 'Word of the Day' when shared on 4 July 2019. The number of times upcycling has been looked up on the Cambridge Dictionary website has risen by 181% since December of 2011, when it was first added to the online dictionary, and searches have doubled in the last year alone.
"We think it's the positive idea behind upcycling that appeals more than the word itself," said Wendalyn Nichols, Publishing Manager of the Cambridge Dictionary. "Stopping the progress of climate change, let alone turning it around, can seem impossible at times. Upcycling is a specific action a single human being can take to make a difference. " "Lookups of upcycling reflect the trend around individual actions to combat climate change—the youth activism started by Greta Thunberg； the growing trends of vegan and plant-based diets； reading and following the handbook There is No Planet B ； or fashion designers upcycling clothes to create their latest collections."
Other words on the shortlist for Word of the Year 2019 reflect the same concern with the effects of climate change, such as carbon sink （碳汇）and compostable （可降解的）.
The Cambridge Dictionary editors use data from the website, blogs, and social media to identify and rank new additions to the Dictionary. They recognized upcycling as a word to include after noticing a sharp rise in searches for the word in 2010. Cambridge University Press has been publishing dictionaries for learners of English since 1995. Cambridge Dictionary began offering these dictionaries completely free of charge online in 1999.
【1】What does the word "upcycling" refer to?
A.The activity of reusing old things or waste material.
B.The activity of making new items out of old or used things.
C.The activity of preventing the global climate change.
D.The activity of collecting old or used things from individuals.
【2】What is Paragraph 3 mainly about?
A.Upcycling is about some measures to change the climate.
B.Lookups of upcycling is the trend to change the climate.
C.Upcycling tells people how to protect environment.
D.Upcycling and searches for the word show a positive idea or trend.
【3】What does the underline word "combat" mean in the third paragraph?
A.Fight against. B.Follow.
C.Observe. D.Increase.
【4】Which of the following is TRUE about the Cambridge Dictionary?
A.It is free of charge for learners of English since 1995.
B.It chose more than one word as its Word of the Year 2019.
C.Upcycling was added to it as a new word after 2010.
D.It means to include all the words related to environment.
