26、Directions: Read the following passage. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need.
We often focus on building relationships with others that we forget the essential first step: being friends of ourselves. 【1】 How can we have good relationships with others if we don’t even have good relationships with ourselves?
The problem might be worse than we expect. Maybe we don’t like ourselves without realizing it. Here is a simple checklist: Is there anything you don’t like about yourself from these lists? Your past: Maybe you have made mistakes in the past which you feel bad about. 【2】 Even if that happened in distant past, your subconscious(潜意识的) mind still has a reason not to like yourself.
Your background: You might wish that you were born in a different family, or that you have a different background. Maybe you could not accept the fact that you are not as lucky as others. They seem to get whatever they want effortlessly because of their background.
Your personal features: You might have some personality features that you don’t like. For example, you may be an introvert(内向的) and you don’t like it; you wish you were an extrovert. Others might have better achievements than you, and no matter how hard you tried, it might seem impossible for you to match them. 【3】 Is there anything that resonate (共鸣) with you? All these give reasons to you not to like yourself. That in turn makes it difficult for you to be a good friend to yourself. 【4】 Here are some tips:
Forgive yourself;
Accept things you can’t change;
Focus on your strengths;
Write your success stories;
Stop comparing yourself with others;
Always be true to yourself.
A.That is the first step if we are to have good relationships with others.
B.You might think that it’s because you are not smart enough or don’t have enough talents.
C.You can do something to improve the relationships with others.
D.Fortunately, there are always things you can do to fix the situation.
E.You might be disappointed with yourself on why you make such mistakes.
F.Sometimes you might not believe yourself.
27、 Genetic engineering, in its broadest definition, means to control a species so that a particular trait is increased in the population. A trait is how an organism (有机体) looks or acts or what it does. Having brown eyes is a trait. Flying in circles is a trait. Climbing trees is a trait.
The earliest forms of genetic engineering occurred on farms. People selected seeds from plants that had more fruit production or tastier leaves than other plants of their types. Then they chose to save the seeds from the best of that group to sow the next year. So, year by year, the farmers produced better and better crops. This type of activity probably has been going on since mankind first settled in villages and began making a life for themselves in one location, about 12,000 years ago!
The same sort of thing would have also happened with animals. For example, people chose to eat the animals that didn’t have favorable traits and let the animals with the favorable traits reproduce. It was thousands of years before mankind figured out how plants and animals reproduce themselves. With this knowledge, people could pollinate (授粉) plants by hand or keep a pair of animals together in order to deliberately cause an increase in a favorable trait.
It was only in the last 250 years that scientists began figuring out chromosomes (染色体) and genes and the role they play in the way one generation passes its traits on to the next. And it’s only been in the last 30 years that scientists have been able to cut out specific genes from one organism and put them in another. It is this 30- year-old technology that is described by the narrow definition of genetic engineering. Mankind has long been able to have a deliberate impact on the world around him. He now possesses the tools to deliberately impact himself. Some people are afraid of what might be done with that power.
【1】The text is mainly developed by ______.
A. asking questions
B. examining differences
C. making comparisons
D. giving examples
【2】Paragraph 2 mainly talks about ______.
A. the spread of genetic engineering
B. the advantage of genetic engineering
C. the original application of genetic engineering
D. the popularity of genetic engineering
【3】The underlined word “them” in the last paragraph refers to ______.
A. specific genes B. special traits
C. chromosomes D. scientists
【4】What can we learn about genetic engineering from the last paragraph?
A. It has a history of 250 years by the narrow definition of genetic engineering.
B. Scientists don’t know how to make good use of it.
C. People have a misunderstanding of it in the past 30 years.
D. It is becoming a powerful tool of mankind.
28、 When to go:The Magic Kingdom,which was opened in 1971,was the first theme park at Walt Disney World. All Disney World theme parks are opened 365 days a year,although opening and closing time for each park changes from day to day. If you plan to make a trip to the Magic Kingdom without kids,try to visit on a school day to avoid the largest crowds. If you need to visit during a school vacation,try at least to avoid the week between Christmas and New Year's Day and the Fourth of July.
If you are not staying at a Disney World hotel,avoid visiting the Magic Kingdom on its Extra Magic Hours days,as Disney's hotel guests get into the park early on those days,and visitors who arrive at the Magic Kingdom's normal opening time have to wait for a long time.
Before you go: Buy your Walt Disney World tickets online at Disney World's website. For advice on picking the right ticket,see our guide to Disney World tickets.
You will also need to call in advance to make lunch or dinner reservations. Disney accepts reservations up to 180 days in advance,but you need to contact 1407WDWDINE.
When you get there: Plan to arrive at the Magic Kingdom's front gate before the park opens in the morning. Keep in mind that to reach the Magic Kingdom,you must park at Disney World's Transportation and Ticket Centre parking lot,ride a tram(有轨电车) to the TTC,then take a ferry boat across the Seven Seas Lagoon to the Magic Kingdom. It makes a fantastic approach,but takes extra time. Give yourself an extra hour in the summer and half an hour during the school year.

29、After Stewart and Debbie Wilder lost their son, Cameron, in 2013, the last thing on their minds was decorating for the holiday season. “We haven’t put anything up in three years. It has all stayed boxed up,” said Debbie.
But in December 2016, the house was lit up for Christmas, with little lights cheerfully lining the rood and eaves(屋檐). It wasn’t the Wilders but a stranger Carson Zickgraf, the founder of CZ Enterprises LLC, who finally made the house shine. “I started crying,” Debbie says about seeing the lights for the first time. “It was really special.”
Zickgraf has been donating his light-stringing services to brighten the lives of families affected by losing their children, especially during the difficult holiday season since 2015 and has decorated the houses of more than two dozen families so far.
He started the project by chance. He was hanging lights on a home when the owner mentioned that some neighbors were having a hard time that holiday season because their son had recently died. Then he had an idea. “I sent my crew there to decorate that house too,” he says. The family was delighted. In fact, he had two friends who had died young, and he’d always wished he could ease the pain for their loved ones. Now, he’s found a way.
“There’s something special about Christmas lights. They warm the spirit.” Zickgraf knows his efforts can’t completely remove the pain from these families, but he can make the holidays a little cheerier. “I wish I had a bigger company so I could do more houses,” he says.
