26、 James Wisniewski likes video games a lot. He plays 6 to 14 hours a day, ignoring friends and family for the pleasures of the virtual world. Wisniewski, from the United Kingdom, says games are the most important thing in his life. “I wake up and think about it; I go to bed and think about it.”
To help young people like Wisniewski, the National Health Service (NHS), is planning to set the country's first specialist clinic to treat video-game addicts between ages 13 and 25. The Guardian reports it will begin treating people in November.
Teenagers addicted to gaming will get one-on-one treatment from psychiatrists (精神病医生) either in person at a clinic or via Skype video chat. Their parents will get advice on how to manage their child's addiction and reduce the amount of time they spend online.
The move comes after the Word Health Organization (WHO) listed “gaming disorder” as a mental health condition.
“Gaming disorder is not a mental illness to be taken lightly: we are talking about examples where someone may spend up to 12 hours a day playing computer games and can end up having fewer and fewer friends,” Henrietta Bowden-Jones, director of the NHS' Center，told The Telegraph.
Many countries are trying different ways to deal with the problem of gaming addiction. South Korea passed a “shutdown law” to stop children under the age of 16 from playing video games between the hours of midnight and 6 a.m. In Japan, meanwhile, players are reminded if they spend more than a certain amount of time each month playing games. In the United States, the nonprofit Entertainment Software Rating Board (ESRB) puts age restrictions on most games, meaning that children under a certain age are unable to buy them.
Here are some tips from The Telegraph to prevent yourself from becoming addicted to games:
●Seta reasonable time for how long you can play games each day.
●Find some other hobbies, like sports or reading.
●If you can’t control yourself, ask your friends or family for help.
【1】Why is the county's first specialist clinic set?
A.To help young people addicted to playing games.
B.To treat people with mental health condition.
C.To get pleasure from the virtual world.
D.To offer advice on educating young children.
【2】People who spend too much time playing computer games end up becoming_______.
A.independent B.socially isolated C.narrow-minded D.cold-blooded
【3】What do Americans do to solve the problem of gaming addiction?
A.Set a reasonable time for how long you can play games each day.
B.Pass a “law” to stop children playing video games at midnight.
C.Ask their friends or family for help if they can't control themselves.
D.Restrict children who are under a certain age to buy most games.
【4】What is the best title for the article?

28、Some American National Parks
Theodore Roosevelt National Park
The 28th American president Theodore Roosevelt established the park to escape the reminder of his mother and wife, who died of illness on the same day. The park has three main areas -- the South Unit, the North Unit, and the Elkhorn Ranch（大农场） Unit. In the South Unit, visitors can drive along the Scenic Loop road. It offers many places to see wildlife and the surrounding badlands. Many visitors st op to look at Painted Canyon（峡谷）. Trails near the canyon offer visitors a chance to see animals, from the huge American bison to small black-tailed prairie dogs. The North Unit also offers several hiking trails. The third area of the park is what Roosevelt described as his "home ranch."
Olympic National Park
The park is located in the western state of Washington. It is on the Olympic Peninsula, in the northwest part of the state. The park covers more than 400,000 hectares. It has several different ecosystems. Visitors will find temperate rainforests, glacier-covered mountains, and almost 120 kilometers of wild coastline. Olympic National Park has meadows and lakes. It has glacier-fed rivers and mountain peaks that rise more than 2,300 meters. To protect the nature of the area, President Grover Cleveland declared the Olympic Peninsula's forests as the Olympic Forest Reserve in 1897. And in 1938, President Franklin Roosevelt signed the bill that established the Olympic National Park.
Voyageurs National Park
The state of Minnesota is known as the land of 10,000 lakes. Voyageurs National Park covers almost 88,500 hectares. About half of that surface is water. Much of the park is accessible only by boat. President Richard Nixon signed the bill that finally established Voyageurs as a national park in 1971. Nature and art meet at the Ellsworth Rock Gardens in the park. A carpenter and artist from Chicago named Jack Ellsworth built a summer home. He designed, built and created about 200 rock sculptures from native stone. Voyageurs National Park may be best seen at night. The most special light display on Earth is sometimes visible at Voyageurs.
Petrified Forest National Park
The word "forest" may mislead visitors. The park is in a desert. And the word "petrified" -- which can mean "afraid"-- may scare visitors away! But fear not. "Petrified Forest" gets its name from the trees that have, over millions of years, turned to stone. That natural process is called fossilization (化石化). The Petrified Forest National Park is one of the wonders of Arizona. The oldest geological formations in the park are about 227 million years old. Differently colored formations show different time periods. Long before humans entered the area, dinosaurs dominated. Petrified Forest National Park is a world-class area for fossil research.

A.Olympic National Park B.Petrified Forest National Park

Tyra Winters was a high school student in Texas. One day, she was marching towards her home after the school day. As she slowly made her way down the street, the 17-year-old was enthusiastically planning the coming weekend party with her best friends, thinking of all the music, laughter, and excitement.
All of a sudden, a horrific scream was heard in the street. Turning back, Winters saw a boy about two years old lying on the sidewalk. And his wild mother was begging for help. “Someone help me, someone help me”. The little boy, Clarke Hornback, as his mother told, had been sucking on a piece of candy when it slid down the back of his mouth. It was stuck in his throat and blocked his windpipe (气管). Clarke’s face was bright red. “There was no coughing; there was no breathing!” Clarke’s mother, Nicole Hornback cried in great panic.
The crowds soon gathered around the poor boy and the mother. The boy was just gasping (喘气) for air. No one seemed to know how to help.
Except for Winters, who had always had dreams of becoming a surgeon for children! She had learned the first aid knowledge for treating choking. It was time for her to save the boy’s life. Knowing that the clock was ticking, she ran to the child.
Paragraph 1:
By the time Winters got to Clarke, the boy’s face had tuned purple.
_________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph 2:
It all happened so fast that Nicole even had no time to thank the girl.
