21、The Damage that aging does to a body extends all the way down to the cellular level. But the damage increased by cells in older muscles is especially severe, because the cells do not reproduce easily and they become weaker as their mitochondria （线粒体）, which produce energy, reduce in energy and number. A study, however, suggests that certain sorts of exercise may remove some of what time can do to our mitochondria.
Exercise is good for people, as everyone knows. But scientists have surprisingly little understanding of its cellular impacts and how those might vary by activity and the age of the exerciser. So researchers recently conducted an experiment on the cells of 72 healthy but sedentary （久坐的） men and women who were 30 or younger or older than 64. After baseline measures were established for their aerobic （有氧的） fitness, their blood-sugar levels and the gene activity and mitochondrial health in their muscle cells, the volunteers were randomly assigned to a particular exercise program.
Some of them did intense （强烈的） weight training several times a week; some did brief interval training three times a week on exercise bicycles; some rode exercise bikes at an appropriate pace for 30 minutes a few times a week and lifted weights lightly on other days. A fourth group, the control （对照组）, did not exercise. After 12 weeks, the lab tests were repeated. In general, everyone experienced improvements in fitness and an ability to regulate blood sugar.
But more unexpected results were found in the biopsied （活组织检查） muscle cells. Among the younger subjects who went through interval training, the activity levels had changed in 274 genes, compared with 170 genes for those who exercised more appropriately and 74 for the weight lifters. Among the older group, almost 400 genes were working differently now, compared with 33 for the weight lifters and only 19 for the appropriate exercisers.
Many of these affected genes, especially in the cells of the interval trainers, are believed to influence the ability of mitochondria to produce energy for muscle cells; the subjects who did the interval exercise showed an increase in the number and health of their mitochondria — an impact that was particularly pronounced among the older cyclists. It seems exercise could help contain the decline in the cellular health of muscles associated with aging, especially if it was intense, says Dr. Sreekumaran Nair, the study’s senior author. In fact, older people’s cells responded in some ways more strongly to intense exercise than the cells of the young did — suggesting, he says, that it is never too late to benefit from exercise.

22、We are all aware of the effect greenhouse gas emissions are having on our planet and the efforts needed to fight climate change. Most of us are doing our bit to reduce our impact on the environment, but despite our collective effort, are we doing enough to achieve net zero by 2050?
Net zero means not adding to the amount of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. Many countries are doing their bit by changing how they generate and use power, therefore, cutting carbon dioxide output. And they announced what further steps they were going to take at the recent COP26 summit in Glasgow.
In the UK, the government has been setting out its plans to achieve net zero by 2050. It’s recently announced an end date for the sale of gas boilers, which are used for heating homes. The idea is to replace them with heat pumps. It’s offering homeowners money of up to £5,000 to get them in place. Another initiative in the UK is a big push towards electric vehicles. There are to be financial incentives (激励措施) for car makers, and more charging points are to be fitted in streets. And there’s to be a ban on the sale of new petrol and diesel cars by 2030.
But not all emissions can be reduced to zero, so those remaining will have to do something to pay for being in existence. One way to do this is to plant thousands of trees, which are good at absorbing carbon dioxide. The UK government has promised to plant 30,000 hectares of trees a year by 2025. There are other ideas too, but what’s certain is this will cost money. The CBI’s Tom Thackray told the BBC that “those costs have to be weighed up against the cost of inaction.”
Whether the UK, or anyone else, reaches net zero remains to be seen. And there’s some doubt about how this can be accurately measured anyway. But it’s generally recognized that a global effort is needed to deal with climate change. Therefore, net zero targets only make sense if every other country is moving in the same direction.
【1】What can be inferred from paragraph 1?
A．Net zero greenhouse gas emissions can be achieved by 2050.
B．Climate change is closely related to greenhouse gas emissions.
C．We are doing what we can to reduce our impact on the environment.
D．Countries should work together to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
【2】Which of the following is helpful in cutting carbon dioxide output?
A．Coal-fired power.
B．Gas heating.
C．Electric cars.
D．Petrol vehicles.
【3】What is the third paragraph mainly about?
A．Plans made by the UK to cut down greenhouse gas emission.
B．Big contributors emitting greenhouse gas into the atmosphere.
C．Measures to be taken to ban the use of fossil fuel in some industries.
D．Incentives to encourage industries to reduce greenhouse gas emission.
【4】What’s the author’s intention of writing the passage?
A．To demonstrate how important and urgent it is to fight against climate change.
B．To introduce what the UK is doing to achieve net zero greenhouse gas emission.
C．To tell the difficulties to reach the set target of net zero greenhouse gas emission.
D．To call on countries in the world to work together to fight against climate change.
23、 This is what's known as a 'Buddy' or Friendship Bench'. They're needed because playgrounds can be lonely places sometimes. And these benches can help pupils feeling lonely to find a friend. Benches like this have been around for a while now in many schools. But in Ireland, they are trying to do something a bit different with them.
This school in Cork in the south of Ireland is the 247th to get one from a social enterprise called Buddy Bench Ireland that doesn't just provide schools with benches, it also runs special workshops with trained child psychiatrists（精神病专家）.They use the bench as an opportunity to start conversations about mental well-being. They talk about the importance of being aware of your feelings and those of others. The children need to understand what the bench is about, what it symbolizes--- friendship, inclusion, listening to each other and the most important thing, that it's important to express feelings.
But do children actually use the bench? It's something an independent academic study has been looking at. We found that 40% of the children told us that they had actually used the benches at the time of the study. And over 90% said that they would talk to a child if that child was sitting on the bench. So, certainly there doesn't appear to be any issues around stigma. Children's mental health at school is increasingly a concern in many countries. In Ireland, they're hoping these benches will not only tackle issues like social isolation and bullying but also give a future generation the confidence to open up about their feelings.
【1】Why the school in Cork in the south of Ireland uses the bench?
A.To start conversations about mental well-being.
B.To replace the old benches in school.
C.To cut the cost of school's facility.
D.To help children with psychological problems fully recover.
【2】What makes the bench work in Ireland schools?
A.Teachers and parents encourage children to try it.
B.Most children are willing to express feelings.
C.All the children understand what the bench is about.
D.The bench helps children get rid of loneliness.
【3】What do schools expect of the bench?
A.It will deal with social isolation and bullying completely.
B.It will motivate a future generation to bravely convey their feelings.
C.It will make children prefer the bench to old one.
D.It will spread in most schools in Ireland soon.
【4】Where is the text most likely from?
A.A fiction B.A guidebook
C.A diary D.A magazine
24、 At the age of 83, I’m reading more and dusting less. I’m sitting in the yard and admiring the view without caring about the weeds in the garden. I’m spending more time with my family and friends and less time working.
Whenever possible, life should be a pattern of experiences to savor, not to suffer. I’m trying to recognize these moments now and cherish them.
I’m not “saving” anything; we use our good china and crystal for every special event such as losing a pound, or the first Amaryllis blossom. I wear my good clothes to the market. I’m not saving my good perfume for special parties, but wearing it for clerks in the hardware store and tellers at the bank.
“Someday” and “one of these days” are losing their positions in my vocabulary. If it’s worth seeing or hearing or doing, I want to see and do it now.
I’m not sure what others would have done had they known they wouldn’t be here for the tomorrow that we all take for granted. I think they would have called family members and a few close friends. They might have called a few former friends to apologize and mend fences for past quarrels. I like to think they would have gone out for a Chinese dinner or for whatever their favorite food was.
It’s those little things left undone that would make me angry if I knew my hours were limited. Angry because I hadn’t written certain letters that I intended to write one of these days. Angry and sorry that I didn’t tell my husband and parents often enough how much I truly love them. I’m trying very hard not to put off, hold back, or save anything that would add laughter and luster to our lives. And every morning when I open my eyes, I tell myself that it is special. Every day, every minute, every breath truly is a gift.

【2】The author would feel angry if ________.
A.there were few things she could do B.she could not live long

A.To share what she has learned from her life.
B.To blame people who left many things undone.
C.To show her regret for what she missed in life.
D.To persuade people to think more of themselves.
