21、 Growing up in Haiti, Phedjina Jean remembers the struggles she and her family went through to access basic services taken for granted in America. Her long-term goal is to become a physician and to set up a health clinic in her small town in Haiti. Now as a student at Massachusetts College of Pharmacy and Health Sciences, Jean is looking to use her experience as an immigrant (移民) growing up in an underdeveloped country to help children growing up in Haiti in a similar situation as herself.
In high school, she was accepted by a nonprofit called A Leadership Journey, which helps teenage people of color go on international trips. In 2019, Jean visited Kenya with the group and visited local schools and villages, assisting locals in education, healthcare and community organization.
“The experience I had in Kenya was eye-opening. I saw so much of my childhood in Kenya. When we went to the school, the children were playing a game, and I was the only American who was familiar with it, since we used to play it back in Haiti,” Jean said.
That experience has motivated Jean to seek more international experience as she works on reaching her goals. She is currently aiming to visit South Africa in December, but unlike her first trip, she will need to raise the funds herself. She has tried to raise the $3,000 necessary for the trip on website GoFundMe.
Jean would be taking the trip with International Children's Outreach, which hosts college students from different countries and encourages improving the lives of poor children and young people around the world while integrating the college students into the education process. Jean said that she would put together a STEM education plan and share it with students and educators while assisting in schools and the local community.
“My parents say to always remember where you came from. That doesn't just mean Haiti; it can mean anywhere in the world where people confront challenges due to poverty. I want to be able to share my experience with children from around the world,” Jean said.

22、A survey by an international temporary service agency found that U. S. managers believe that people with a sense of humour do better at their jobs, compared with those who have little or no sense of humour. In fact, about 96 percent of those surveyed said people with a sense of humour do better.
The survey went on to point out that the results suggest that a sense of humour may help light-hearted employees keep their jobs during tough times. And, what's more, it may push them up the corporate ladder past their humourless colleagues. Why? It seems that those with a sense of humour are better communicators and better team players.
Studies have shown that happy workers are more productive. In fact, a researcher at California State University found that humour could help the employees to release tension.
Research done by psychologist Dr. Ashton Trice at Mary Baldwin College in Virginia showed that humour helps us think. When people feel stuck on important projects, they tend to feel angry or depressed. According to Dr. Trice's research, taking time out to laugh can help us to get rid of negative feelings and allow us to return to a task or move on to another project unaffected by past defeat.
If humour is really this important, then why don't we use it more often on the job? Most likely, the main reason is that many people are unaware of the positive effects of humour in the workplace. However, it is important to realize that some humour is not suitable for the workplace, and that it is often used at wrong times.
【1】Most people think a sense of humour can ________.
A．help you to do your work better
B．make you have a rich life
C．make you pleased with your work
D．help you to make more friends
【2】Many people don't use humour more in the workplace because __________.
A．they like keeping silent when working
B．they don't know the positive effects of humour
C．they think they should obey the rules
D．they don't like joking or laughing
【3】A person without a sense of humour is easier __________.
A．to feel surprised
B．to get along with
C．to be worried
D．to be successful
【4】What is probably the best title for the article?
A．People with a Sense of Humour.
B．Humour Is Important in the Workplace.
C．Humour and Humourless.
D．Everyone Likes Humour.
23、 Teens are not always the easiest people in the world to understand or talk to. They can be complex and moody, with their minds changing between childhood and adulthood.【1】Let's talk some ways to talk with teens easily.
Start a conversation at the dinner table. Create quality family time and encourage conversation during dinner.【2】That way, you can all focus your attention on the dinner conversation.

No matter what your teen's interests are, you should be open to talking about them.

25、 Molecular biologist Elizabeth Blackburn shared a Nobel Prize for her research on telomeres (端粒)—structures at the tips of chromosomes (染色体）that play a key role in cellular aging. _____ she was frustrated that the important health implications of her work weren’t reaching beyond academia.
So along with psychologist Elissa Epel, she has published her findings in a new book ______ a general audience -- laying out a scientific case that may give readers________ to keep their new year's resolutions to not smoke, eat well, sleep enough, exercise regularly，and _______stress.
The main message of The Telomere Effect, being published Tuesday, is that you have more control over your own aging than you may imagine. You can actually _______ your telomeres—and perhaps your life—by following sound health advice, the authors argue, based on a review of thousands of studies.
“Telomeres listen to you, they listen to your _______，they listen to your state of mind，” said Blackburn, president of the Salk Institute for Biological Studies in La Jolia, Calif.
Telomeres sit at the end of the strands of DNA, like the _______ caps on shoelaces. Stress from a rough lifestyle will shorten those caps, making it more likely that cells will ______ dividing and essentially die.
Too many of these cells accelerate_______，the pair say. This doesn’t cause any particular disease, but research suggests that it speeds up the time when whatever your genes have in store will occur -- so if you’re _______ to heart disease，you're more likely to get it younger if your telomeres are shorter, said Epel, director of the University of California, San Francisco’s Aging, Metabolism and Emotions Center.
“We can provide a new level of specificity and tell people more precisely with clues _____from telomere science, about what exactly ______ is related to long telomeres, what exact foods are related to long telomeres, what aspects of sleep are more related to long telomeres,” Epel added.
Other researchers in the field praised Blackburn and Epel’s efforts to make telomere research relevant to the general public, ______ several warned that it risked ______ the science.
“I think it’s a very difficult thing to prove that lifestyle can affect telomere length and therefore lifespan,”said Harvard geneticist and anti-aging researcher David Sinclair. “To get cause-effect in humans is _____，so it’s based on associations.”
