26、Here are some tips to help get your children on the path to good sportsmanship.
There are a number of parents that allow their children to win at games. Although parents’ hearts are in the right place this only gives children false hope. 【1】. Imagine the embarrassment children will endure when they go to school thinking they are the best chess player in the world because they beat their parents and then get beaten by other classmates. Always teach your children the basic concept of games and allow them to learn by getting beaten; the more times they lose the better they will learn the game.
Exhibit good sportsmanship while watching sport on TV or at a sports outing. 【2】. This will teach your children that although you are a fan of one team you still respect the other team’s players.
【3】. But you should also be sure to correct improper behavior. Having the privilege of playing sports comes with a responsibility to play fair and just have fun. Encourage your children and all the other players to keep the competition fun and fair for everyone.
【4】. If you were a team quarterback throughout your school career don’t expect your children to have the same talent or the same enthusiasm for the sport. If they do, that’s great, but never push them into something you want to do. 【5】.
A．It is also important to accept your children’s ability
B．You can always give them ideas while they are playing
C．Listen to their wishes before pushing yours onto your children
D．There are some parents who always exhibit good sportsmanship
E．When your children exhibit good sportsmanship, praise them for that
F．This makes them believe they can beat almost anyone at the games they play
G．You can do this by cheering for your team, but making positive comments about the other team
27、Alabama: Priester’s Pecans
Dessert in the South basically starts and ends with an ooey-gooey pecan(核桃) pie. Especially in Alabama, where the pecan is the official state nut. While there are plenty of farms that pick and package pecans, perhaps the most famous is Priester’s, a family-run business that’s been supplying Alabama with its favorite nuts for over seven decades.
Alaska: Salmon jerky
Forget beef jerky(肉干)—in Alaska, it’s all about the salmon jerky. Home to five different species of the flavorful fish (king, red, pink, silver, and chum), the northernmost state produces nearly one-third of the wild salmon consumed around the world. Bonus: Salmon is one of the seven healthiest fish you can eat.
Arizona: Saguaro cactus
The largest cactus(仙人掌) in the United States, the saguaro cactus is found only in Arizona’s Sonoran Desert. Living to be up to 200 years old, the cacti, whose flower is also the state’s flower, are generally around 30 feet tall and can grow unlimited arms. Want to see for yourself? Visit one of these 10 outstanding desert escapes in America.
California: Wine Guide
It isn’t called “Wine Country” for no reason. Northern California, specifically Napa Valley and Sonoma Valley, produce over 60,000 registered wine labels, making vino(酒类产品) the state’s most valuable agricultural product. If you’re looking for the most popular varietals(优质酿酒葡萄汁), the top two frequently planted grapes are chardonnay and cabernet sauvignon.
【1】How long has the Priester’s farm lasted?
A．About 7 years.
B．About 30 years.
C．About 70 years.
D．About 200 years.

28、If a human can get a prosthetic limb(假肢), why not an animal? Easier said than done however, as while there is a tremendous amount of ongoing research for human prosthetics, there is hardly any for animals.
But this Jaipur-based veterinary surgeon did not want to wait around anymore. Dr Tapesh Mathur is credited with making the ‘Krishna Limb’, India’s first prosthetic limb for animals. Tapesh has been designing prosthetic limbs for animals since 2015 and to date, has helped 90 animals adapt to using a prosthetic. From design to production, Tapesh does all the work by himself at his home-workshop. He provides the artificial limbs for free.
Tapesh said, “I could not bear to see their (the cattle’s) pain . These animals could not voice their anxiety as humans can, but they feel the pain all the same. They waited helplessly for food or for someone to clean them. And I kept thinking if we can help humans walk again, why can’t something similar be done for these animals? Thus I began my research.”
Tapesh designed his first prosthetic limb for a two-year-old calf named Krishna, who learnt to walk using the limb.
Producing these prosthetic limbs wasn’t an easy task initially, and Tapesh required raw material, which was expensive. Polypropylene, which is used for manufacturing prosthetic limbs, is only supplied in quantity by suppliers, and Tapesh had to source it from Mumbai using his own savings.
Now, Tapesh designs various prosthetic limbs for different animals. “We generally work with cows, horses, and dogs, but have started receiving applications for other animals as well. Recently, we got a request for a limb for a pet parrot. We are still working on the design.”
There are certain steps involved in designing. First, Tapesh takes the necessary measurements, based on which the artificial limb is moulded. The real challenge comes when Tapesh has to visit animals living in remote areas as his patients often cannot be brought to him. Once the prosthetic limb is ready, Tapesh visits the animal and attaches it for free.
【1】Why does the author ask a question at the beginning of the passage?
A．To ask for others’ favors.
B．To show the difficulty in making prosthetic limbs for animals.
C．To lay emphasis on the similarities between the two.
D．To arouse readers’ interest in the following topic.
【2】What can we learn about Dr Tapesh Mathur from paragraph 2 ?
A．He has adopted about 90 animals.
B．He makes artificial limbs for animals out of curiosity.
C．He works with other doctors to produce prosthetic limbs.
D．He is the first Indian to make prosthetic limbs for animals.
【3】How did Dr Tapesh Mathur get raw materials for prosthetic limbs?
A．By asking his friends for help.
B．By buying them with his own money.
C．By borrowing them from companies.
D．By turning to the government for help.
【4】Which of the following can best describe Dr Tapesh Mathur ?
A．Selfish and quick-tempered.
B．Confident and strong-willed.
C．Generous and kind-hearted.
D．Honest and well-behaved.
29、Staying positive through the cold season could be the best defence against getting sick, a new American study suggests.
In an experiment that exposed healthy volunteers to a cold or flu virus, researchers found that people with a generally sunny character were less likely to fall ill.
The findings, published in the journal Psychosomatic Medicine, build on evidence that a “positive emotional style” can help protect us from the common cold and other illnesses.
“People with a positive emotional style may have different immune (免疫的) responses to the virus,” explained lead study author Dr Sheldon Cohen of Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh. “And when they do get a cold, they may experience their illness as less severe.”
Cohen and his colleagues had found in a previous study that happier people seemed less susceptible (易受影响的) to catching a cold, but some questions remained as to whether the emotional quality itself had the effect.
For the new study, the researchers had 193 healthy adults complete standard measures of personality qualities, physical health and “emotional style”.
Those who tended to be happy, energetic and easy-going were judged as having a positive emotional style, while those who were often unhappy, tense and hostile (敌意的) had a negative style.
Afterwards, the researchers gave them nose drops containing either a cold virus or a particular flu virus that causes flu-like symptoms. Over the next six days the volunteers reported on any aches, pains, sneezing they had. Cohen and his colleagues found that happy people were less likely to develop a cold.
What’s more, when happy folks did develop a cold, their symptoms were less severe than what would be expected based on objective (客观的) measures.
In contrast, people with negative characters were not at increased risk of developing a cold based on objective measures, though they did tend to get down about their symptoms.
“We find that it’s really positive emotions that have the big effect”, Cohen said, “not the negative ones.”
So can a bad-tempered person fight a cold by deciding to be happy?
【1】The purpose of Cohen’s new study was to .
A．find effective ways to fight illnesses
B．test people’s different immune responses to cold virus
C．tell differences between happy people and unhappy people
D．examine whether health was related to emotional styles
【2】Cohen’s new study showed that .
A．an emotional style is difficult to change
B．happy people are immune to cold virus
C．people’s attitudes toward illnesses are different
D．happiness itself helps protect people from cold
【3】We can conclude from the text that .
A．success is the twin of positive spirits
B．we get more by being more positive
C．the happier we are, the fewer colds we will suffer
D．physical health is more important than mental health
【4】Which is the best title for the passage?
A．Stay Away from Being Negative
B．Warm People Likely to Keep Cold Away
C．An Effective Medicine for Being Fit
D．Positive or Negative, It’s Up to You
