26、 Be careful on January 8th --- It’s officially the most dangerous day of the year. The insurance company Hyperion has studied accident statistics (统计数字) and has found that there are more accidents on January 8th than on any other day.
Accidents are certainly more likely to happen at particular times of the year. One general rule is that more accidents happen in winter months, because risk increases in bad weather. In 2004 and 2005 Hyperion found that the worst day was January 8th, with 298 accidents reported to them. March 3rd was the safest day, with only 89 reports. Six of the ten worst days for driving were in January.
It’s clear that icy and snowy conditions are dangerous, but some other statistics are puzzling. A British Medical Journal report in 2001, for example, found that hospital admissions (住院) were always higher than usual on Friday the 13th.
But it is not only when Friday falls on the 13th that it is a dangerous day. Four of the top ten worst days for accidents last year were Fridays --- perhaps because everyone is rushing home for the weekend --- while Thursdays are the safest day of the week.
At what time of the day is an accident most likely to happen? The Health and Safety Authority found that people are most likely to have an accident at 11.00 a.m., while the safest time of day is between 4.00 and 5.00 a.m. --- probably because most people are in bed!
Finally, good news for Harry Potter fans. Doctors at the John Radcliffe Hospital in Oxford noted that fewer children were in hospital on the weekend when Harry Potter books were available to the public. Casualties (伤亡人员) fell by over 50% when the last two books went on sale. So if you want to be really safe, you should read a Harry Potter book in bed, at around 5.00 on a Thursday morning, in summer.
【1】What is special about January 8th according to Hyperion?
A.More accidents happen than usual. B.The weather is often the worst.
C.More people are rushed to hospital. D.It’s the safest day in winter months.
【2】Why are Fridays considered to be dangerous?
A.Fridays often fall on the 13th. B.Busy weekdays tire people out.
C.Everyone is in a hurry to go home. D.It’s easy to get caught in heavy traffic.
【3】What happened when there was a new Harry Potter book?
A.It was the safest day of the year. B.People were more likely to go out.
C.Fewer children ended up in hospital. D.The driving conditions were the worst.
【4】What is the purpose of this text?
A.To show some research results. B.To give practical advice.
C.To tell an interesting story. D.To solve a problem.
27、 Sweden and its Nordic neighbors have some of the highest literacy(读写能力) rates in the world. The Swedes view equal access to education and knowledge as important to an individual’s future success. This is true regardless of economic background or geographic location.
Sweden has a floating library—the bokbaten—that brings thousands of books to people on dozens of distant islands in the Stockholm archipelago(群岛) twice a year. Every spring and fall since 1953, the Stockholm Library Service has rented a boat for a week, loaded it full of books, and set a course for about 23 islands. When the boat arrives, residents climb aboard to return books they borrowed during the last visit and check out the library’s newest offerings. The boat carries about 3000 books, and residents can put in requests ahead of time. The three or four volunteer librarians who take turns working on the ship say that, as you might expect, the latest bestsellers are in high demand.
There are tall wooden shelves, large tables displaying solid hardcovers, book carts on wheels, a long checkout table, and event notices taped to the wall. There are picture books for children, popular novels, large-print books, texts about history and science and cookbooks. Since island residents can order copies in advance, boxes of books are piled around the boat waiting to be delivered.
The boat started as a service for fishermen and island workers and even residents who prefer to read hard copies of books rather than e-books or audio(有声) books. But even in a nation of book lovers, the future of the floating library remains uncertain. If the Regional Library cuts funding for the boat, the bokbaten will be no more. Hopefully, Sweden’s bokbaten will continue to operate as a wonderful nod to past traditions while educating people for the future.

【3】What problem may the bokbaten be facing?
A.Bad weather.
B.A lack of money.
C.Books being stolen.
D.People poorly educated.
【4】Which of the following is a suitable title for the text?
A.Sweden—a country of reading lovers
B.The bokbaten—a floating library
C.The feature of Sweden’s education
D.The history of Sweden’s bokbaten
28、We all need confidence sometimes, especially when something goes wrong in our world. Here are some helpful tips on how to believe in yourself more.
【1】 Don’t listen to what others tell you unless it’s positive. When you know someone respects or likes you, be happy. You can also ask them what it is about you that they like. This will prove the best parts of you and help you believe in yourself. Some of us may find it more difficult to take in positive feedback(反馈) than negative one, and that needs to change.
Remember your last (or greatest) success, and think about it for a few minutes. Reviewing your past successes will help you reach for others. Quite simply, it reminds you that you have the talent and tools needed to get your life to the next level.【2】 Picture your greatest success so far, and then imagine the goal you are going for.
Know that you are the person your loved ones think you are. It goes for your dog, too. 【3】 You are expected to pull yourself up when you feel down. All that’s required is to feel the love that’s all around you. Start with one person (or your dog), and feel the difference.
If you have succeeded before, you can do it again. Maybe not in the same way, but you can reach the same level of influence and fulfillment. Nothing feels quite the same as being on stage and having several thousand people call your name, but other things can feel good too. 【4】
These guidelines in how to believe in yourself do work, but don’t try doing them all at once. 【5】 You will be pleased with the results and with yourself.
A.Take in positive feedback.
B.Be happy towards what others tell you.
C.Go for what you want, no matter what it is.
D.Forming a picture in your mind also helps here.
E.When feeling down, it can be so easy to beat yourself up.
F.Concentrating on the love you get from others helps you feel good about yourself.
G.Start with the one that’s easiest for you and stick with it for a week or so before trying other exercises.

It seems that friendship can also exist between dogs and horses. I’ve witnessed one inspiring case.
One morning, I went outside to feed our horse Bullet. Usually, Bullet waits eagerly at the fence for his breakfast. But this morning he stayed near a tree in the pasture’s center. As he began joyfully walking toward me, I noticed a dog lying in the tall grass beneath the tree. So this was what held Bullet’s attention this morning: a homeless dog. Most of the homeless dogs shied away from our large Bullet, but this one seemed to feel safe in the shelter of the tall grass regardless of Bullet. I placed alfalfa cubes inside the fence. After Bullet ate them, I’d give him some cookies he loved most.
I walked back to my porch and sat down. As Bullet ate alfalfa, the dog stood up cautiously, stared at Bullet for long and then slowly walked toward Bullet. The dog often paused and looked at me to ensure I wasn’t a threat. As the dog drew closer to Bullet, I held my breath. I didn’t know how Bullet would react to an animal that approached while he was eating. Knowing a horse’s kick can kill a dog, I decided to scare the dog away. Just then Bullet swung his head and looked at the dog. Not minding it, he ate his food again.
The dog drew close enough to take an alfalfa cube. My heart broke as I watched the dog — a female — chewing on the alfalfa. She had to be extremely hungry to attempt to eat horse feed. I went inside the house, carried some meat and walked toward the fence. The dog soon ran to the safety of the tall grass near the tree. I put the meat down outside the fence and went back inside the house. She’d probably come for the meat when I was out of sight.
Minutes later, I realized I hadn’t yet given Bullet his cookies. I took some and went back outside. Amazingly, Bullet was lying down in the grass beneath the tree with the dog next to him. I smiled at the warm scene they created.
