26、Make Albertsville Shine
After a long and snowy winter, spring has finally come to Albertsville. The leaves are out on the trees, and the grass is green again. All around town, people are cleaning up their homes. They are pulling weeds and planting flowers. They are sweeping yards and washing windows. Before long, Albertsville will look as fresh and shiny as a new coin, right?
Definitely not. Just take a look at the streets and sidewalks around town. There is litter( 垃圾 ) everywhere: fast food wrappers, soft drink cans, plastic bags, and more. This litter is dirty and ugly. It takes the shine off our lovely town.
But it doesn’t have to be this way. In many neighboring towns, volunteer groups “adopt(认领 )” a mile of a street or road to keep clean. The groups include schools and clubs. Volunteers pick up litter, cut bushes, wash sidewalks, and even plant flowers!
Sure, the volunteers work hard, but they also get to enjoy the beauty of their town. Better yet, they feel proud of themselves for making their town a better place to live.
So what are the people of Albertsville waiting for? Talk to people in your school or club about adopting part of a street or road. Then get to work! If enough volunteer groups get busy, Albertsville really will shine this spring.

27、 Theodore Roosevelt was one of America’s most physically fit Presidents. “While in the White House I always tried to get a couple of hours’ exercise in the afternoons—sometimes tennis, more often riding, or else a cross-country walk, he wrote. The President believed “the energetic life”, as he called it, helped him to be a better person and a better President.
The President’s love for the energetic life began when he was a boy growing up in New York City in the 1860s. He was a sickly child and often ill. “Nobody seemed to think I would live,” Roosevelt recalled.
Encouraged by his father, Roosevelt began lifting weights when he was 12 years old. The next year, Roosevelt’s mother took him to a gym for boxing (拳击) lessons. He described himself as “a painfully slow and awkward pupil.” But even though he had little ability, Roosevelt always showed a lot of interest in sports. He worked hard at exercising his body.
Roosevelt stood 5 feet 8 inches tall and weighed 124 pounds as a freshman at Harvard College. A classmate described him as “a youth in the kindergarten stage of development.” Yet Roosevelt continued boxing, and in his junior year, he competed in Harvard’s annual boxing championship. He finished in second place.
Roosevelt entered politics after college. In 1901, 42-year-old Roosevelt became the youngest President ever. And just because he was a world leader, he saw no reason to give up energetic or risky sports.
The President invited young military officers to the White House to box and wrestle (摔跤). In one boxing match, Roosevelt’s opponent (对手) hit him in the left eye, causing an injury that eventually blinded that eye. He kept the injury secret for many years.
【1】Roosevelt’s parents encouraged him to do exercise in order to ________.
A. change his bad habits B. discover his athletic ability
C. strengthen his weak body D. build his strong character
【2】What does the underlined word “awkward” in Paragraph 3 mean?
A. Stupid. B. Nervous.
C. Careful. D. Unpopular.
【3】What Roosevelt’s college classmate described showed Roosevelt was very ________.
A. strong B. smart
C. lazy D. small
【4】After Roosevelt became the President of the US, ________.
A. he preferred doing exercise in the mornings
B. he had less time to keep fit at the White House
C. few people knew he lost the sight of his left eye
D. he taught many officers how to box and wrestle
28、Differences inside our bodies
Did you know that people who live in different parts of China have different habits and preferences?
For example, people from southern China prefer to eat vegetables, while people from north China like to eat meat. But what causes these differences?
According to a new study published in the journal Cell in October, gene variations might be responsible for these differences, Xinhua reported.
In the study, researchers from Chinese genome-sequencing (基因组测序) firm BGI collected genetic information from 141,431 Chinese women. The women came from 31 provinces and comprised 36 ethnic minority groups.
The researchers found that there are six gene frequencies that are different among people from both northern and southern China. They found that natural selection has played an important role in the ways that people living in different regions of China have evolved, affecting their food preferences, immunities to illness and physical traits, the New York Times reported.
The researchers reported that a variation of the gene FADS2 is more commonly found in northern people than it is in southern people. It helps people metabolize (新陈代谢) fatty acids (脂肪酸), which suggests a diet that is rich in meat. According to Xinhua, this is due to climate differences. Northern China is at a higher latitude, which means it’s cold and dry throughout the whole year. This weather is difficult to grow vegetables in. Therefore, northerners tend to eat more meat.
The study also found differences in the immune systems of both groups. Most people in southern China carry the gene CR1, which protects against malaria. This is because malaria was once quite common in southern China. In order to survive, the genes of people in the south evolved to fight against this disease. However, people in the south are also more vulnerable to certain blood-borne illnesses, as they lack the genes to stop them.
Genes can also cause physical differences between northerners and southerners. Most northerners have the ABCC11 gene, which causes dry earwax (耳屎), less body odor and fewer sweat secretions (分泌), The New York Times reported. These physical differences are also more beneficial to living in cold environments. Southerners are less likely to have this gene, as it did not evolve in their population.
【1】What’s this passage mainly about?
A. A study of the genes of Chinese minority groups.
B. Habits of people from different regions of China.
C. Differences in the genes of people from different parts of China.
D. Physical differences between northerners and southerners.
【2】A variation of the gene FADS2 can help our body ________.
A. store fat B. digest meat
C. fight disease D. control sweat
【3】The underlined word “comprised” is closest in meaning to ________.
A. consisted of B. compared to
C. completed D. started with
【4】According to the passage, most northerners in China ________.
a. tend to have less disease like malaria
b. have less body odor
c. catch blood-borne illnesses easily
d. sweat less frequently
A. ab B. bc
C. bd D. cd

But when they ________ me into the emergency room and I saw the expressions on the faces of the doctors, I got really ________.
