26、Most of us learn how to ride a bike during childhood, but as we grow older, many of us stop riding. However, hundreds of thousands of people have participated in cycling in recent years. So the question is: what makes it so popular to ride a bike once again?
First, let’s look at the health benefits. Cycling can have a positive influence on heart health and weight management. Also, it can strengthen your leg muscles too. Cycling’s benefits aren’t just physical, but mental as well. Along ride in the countryside could help you to clear your mind and anxiety. But it’s not only about your body and mind-there are also some plus sides for your wallet’s health.
Cycling can be an economical way to go to work or go around town. By cycling, you save money on fuel or train fares. If you do drive into work, sometimes finding somewhere to park can be a trouble, while finding somewhere to chain your bike up can be much simpler. Then, on the train, there are changes at stations and others speaking loudly on their phones to deal with. Cyclists face neither of these problems. And if you’re worried about safety, there are cycle lanes in many major cities. Wearing high-visibility clothing is another way to improve your safety when cycling on the roads.
Finally, cycling can also be good for the environment. It can help you to reduce your carbon footprint. Not pumping out smoke into the atmosphere is better for the planet. So, whether people want to cycle for their health, going around town, their wallet, the environment, or all of them-the popularity of cycling is on the rise.
【1】What is a health benefit of cycling?
A.Spending less.
B.Saving time.

28、 Nearly twenty years have passed since China launched the first Beidou satellite in 2000. In that time more Beidou satellites were sent into orbit(轨道), forming the Beidou Navigation Satellite System(BDS, 北斗卫星导航系统). In late 2012, it began providing positioning, navigation, timing and messaging services for people in China and other parts of the Asia-Pacific region(区域).
At the end of 2018, BDS started to provide global services. “This marked Beidou’s entering a ‘global era’ from its ‘regional era’, ” BDS Spokesman Ran Chengqi said at a news conference.
Now with two more Beidou satellites launched on Dec.16th, 2019, BDS has 53 satellites in orbit-more than US government’s Global Positioning System(GPS), which has 31 active satellites. That launch means the core(核心) of Beidou’s third-generation network is now in place. It is expected to greatly improve the system’s ability to serve users worldwide.
A signal receiver on Earth-your smart phone, for example, measures its distance from at least three satellites by recording the amount of time it takes to receive their signals. Then it can calculate(计算) its location. With so many satellites, BDS can provide a more accurate(精确的) calculation. While GPS calculates locations to within a few meters, BDS reduces the error to centimeters. This high-precision(高精确度的) service is useful for land surveying, mapping, agriculture and automated driving.
China is willing to share BDS with the world. According to Ran, BDS products have been exported(出口) to more than 120 countries and regions. “The Beidou system will always stick to the development idea of ‘China’s Beidou, the world’s Beidou and the first-class Beidou ’, serving the world and benefiting mankind,” Ran told reporters after the latest launch. He added that future plans call for a smarter and more accessible(易使用的) system with Beidou as its core, to come online by 2035.
【1】According to the passage, which of the following is true?
A.BDS is only used in China. B.GPS has more satellites than BDS.
C.BDS develops step by step. D.The first Beidou satellite provided global services.
【2】Paragraph 4 mainly talks about .
A.how BDS works B.what BDS is
C.why people prefer BDS D.how the signal is received
【3】What can we infer from Ran’s words in the last paragraph?
A.The system is expected to improve in the future. B.BDS is perfect at present.
C.Other countries refuse to use BDS. D.It is challenging to export BDS products.
【4】Which is the best title for the text?
A.BDS or GPS? B.China’s Beidou, the world’s Beidou!
C.Advance with the world! D.Prepare for future!
29、Most children are now working longer hours than their parents with some slaving for over 46 hours a week, according to a new survey.
The research shows that parents are creating crazy schedules for their children with after school activities in addition to school tasks. This means children are actually working harder than the average parents who only work for 37.5 hours a week.
The average child already completes 30 hours and 50 minutes a week at school from Monday to Friday, as well as 7 hours and 51 minutes of clubs and homework. Actively reading with parents daily takes a further 5 hours and 49 minutes a week. The Center Parcs study of 2,000 parents also found the average child also helps with housework for up to an hour and 37 minutes each week.
Colin Whaley, marketing director from Center Parcs, said, “We made this report to further understand family life and what challenges parents and children are facing and overcoming, so we can always make sure we’re offering what they need. What has undoubtedly come out of this is the need for families—parents and children alike—to take time out to relax.”
In response to the findings, Center Parcs let child psychologist(心理学家) Dr Sam Wass develop a Recommended Daily Allowance (RDA) for free time which needs 3 hours and 51 minutes every day. The RDA provides a variety of free-time activities, which will allow children to use their imagination and develop creative thinking. The RDA really creates the best environment to relax and the best short break possible for children.
【1】According to the survey, what problem are most children faced with?
A.They spend little time in doing homework.
B.They spend too much time enjoying after-school activities.
C.They have no time to help their parents around the house.
D.They are working more hours than their parents each week.
【2】It takes children the most time in a week .
A.to study at school

【3】In the opinion of Colin Whaley, .
A.schools should increase the time of activities
B.both parents and children need spare time to relax
