26、Easy Solutions to Stress
Does stress often wear you down? It’s almost impossible to totally avoid stress, but the following tips will help you to get it under control so that it doesn’t take over your life.
Rely on other people
Studies of both animals and humans show that social contact can help you better respond to stress. 【1】 Avoid people who always need something without giving back or who are always short with you.
【2】 Leave the house 15 minutes early for appointments, set up a system for paying your bills, refill your daily supplies a week ahead of time and buy birthday cards whenever you see ones you like. A little advance planning can spare you a lot of headaches!
Keep a journal
Reflect on your day, your emotions and your personal goals. While writing them down, include everything that stresses you, so you can start to recognize what your problems are and take appropriate action. 【3】
Cut your to-do list in half
Most of us set the bar too high. After you’ve written your to-do list, decide what’s most important to you in the long run, then cut the list in half. 【4】. For example, hire a neighbourhood teenager to water your garden or skip cooking and order takeaway.
Laugh a little
【5】 Laughter also helps keep your heart, lungs and muscles healthy and build up your resistance (抵抗力). Plus, it’s nearly impossible to stay tense while you’re laughing. Therefore, find cartoons, videos or TV shows that make you laugh.
A.Avoid last-minute rushes.
B.Make detailed plans for daily activities.
C.Writing is also a great way to relax and put things in order.
D.If you can’t cut out certain tasks, try to have someone else do them.
E.As we all know, laughter is the best medicine for both your body and mind.
F.So establish a network of people you can turn to and ask for some helpful advice.
G.When you laugh, you send chemicals called endorphins (内啡肽) to your brain that ease pain and promote your feeling of well-being.
27、Beijing No 4 Intermediate People’s Court said on Thursday that it concluded 77 cases of smuggling (走私) precious animal products from the beginning of 2015 to June this year, with about 40 percent of defendants (被告) given prison terms of three or more years. The products were found to be frequently made of body parts of some endangered wild animals such as elephants, turtles, bears and wolves, Wang Jing, vice-president of the court, told a news conference.
“Most of the defendants were migrant workers, students and tourists coming back to China, “Wang said. “Some aimed to sell the products for profits or send to friends and family members as gifts, while they wanted to use them to help with diseases.”
Wang explained that some of the defendants received heavier penalties (惩罚), such as a long-term imprisonment and a high fine, because the animal parts they smuggled were from animals listed on the national key protection of wildlife or related to the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES). For example, a defendant surnamed Yan was sentenced to 10 years in prison, along with 200,000 yuan ($27, 968) in fines, for smuggling 393 fish bladder products, the court said. Yan was caught while arriving at the Beijing Capital International Airport from Mexico on March 21, 2018, and the suspected products were discovered by the customs staff members in Yan’s luggage. The products were later identified as being made of drum fish in Gulf of California, and the fish is listed on the CITES, the court said, adding that the products were worth of about 2.51 million yuan ($351,000).
To effectively fight the crime, the court has issued a guideline on the smuggling of precious animal products to help judges accurately apply laws and unify (统一) the standards of relevant case hearings.
On Thursday, the court also disclosed four other smuggling cases, showing its determination and effort to protect precious animals by rule of law.
【1】What does Wang Jing mainly express in paragraph 2?
A.The diseases that the animal products can be used to cure people of.
B.The way the defendants managed to get the animal products abroad.
C.The reasons why the defendants brought the animal products from abroad.
D.The people who the defendants were supposed to sell the animal products to.
【2】What can be learned about the defendant surnamed Yan from paragraph 3?
A.Yan was sentenced to one decade in prison without any fines.
B.Yan was caught when trying to make a deal with someone.
C.Yan’s products were made of a kind of endangered fish.
D.Yan was a migrant worker, who came from Europe.
【3】Which can replace the underlined word “disclose” in the last paragraph?

Mary became fascinated watching the ball flying back and forth, and ended up purchasing a kit containing all the materials needed to bring the sport home to Staten Island.Using a hand-drawn diagram, she laid out a court at her brother's cricket club, where the sport caught on among members.From there, the game's popularity quickly grew, leading to standardized rules and regulations--and then, in 1880, to the first U.S.tennis championship.
In only a few years, Mary' s unexpected souvenir from her Bermuda trip helped set a national tradition: today, nearly eighteen million people in the US play the sport, from the public-tennis-court games in many cities to the annual U.S.Open, in NYC.Mary s role in bringing tennis from Bermuda to America has earned her a place in the International Tennis Hall of Fame.

29、For the first time in 100 years , the endangered California condor (禿鹰)will return to the Pacific Northwest.As the largest flying land bird , the California condor was once in a difficult situation of extinction, but now has made noticeable steps towards recovery.
California condors prehistorically lived from California to Florida and, in modem times ,from Western Canada to Northern Mexico. By the mid - 20th century , condor populations had decreased due to illegal hunting and poisoning. In 1967 , the California condor was listed as endangered with a population of 50 to 60. Fifteen years later ,only 23 condors survived worldwide. By 1987 ,all remaining wild condors had been placed into a captive breeding program (圈养繁殖计划). Thus ,a recovery program began to save the species from extinction.As a result of excellent protection partnerships and reintroduction efforts , there are now over 300 California
condors in the wild in America.
The return of condors to the skies is a key step towards the recovery of the beautiful scenery. These creatures are essential members of their ecosystems and play a very important and necessary role in the spiritual and cultural beliefs of the Yurok Tribe. Because condors have an irreplaceable place in their culture , the Yurok Tribe has led this reintroduction effort and completed a great deal of work to prepare for the return of condors to the Pacific Northwest over the past twelve years.
Recently ,the U. S. Fish and Wildlife Service , National Park Service , and the Yurok Tribe came together to announce a final rule. This rule will help to facilitate the creation of a new California condor release (放生) place for the reintroduction of condors to Yurok Ancestral Territory and Redwood National and State Parks. Considering the date of the completion of the condor release place may be ahead of schedule , the actual release of condors would be spring of 2022.
Steve Mietz is the head of Redwood National and State Parks. He said," We will continue to work with our partners in condor recovery. Tourists can visit the tallest trees in our parks while watching the largest birds in the world fly overhead. ”

Mike’s Lucky Ice Cream
Mike licked(舔)the last of the chocolate ice cream. It was almost time to leave. He jumped into the car with his parents and headed to the swimming pool for the big swim meet(运动会).
When his race began, Mike was confident. He was strong and fast. Mike climbed out of the pool, smiling. He had just won the first place, making him the fastest boy in his age group. He walked towards his parents. “Congratulations, son!” his father said. His mom hugged him.
A week later, it was time for another swim meet. Like before, Mike decided to enjoy his favorite chocolate ice cream before leaving home. Mike remembered that the last time he had won a race, he also ate chocolate ice cream first. Maybe he would win again. Yes, the result was what he had expected.
Gradually, Mike got used to having some chocolate ice cream before every one of the next swim meets. He began to think of it as his lucky charm(吉祥物). His parents didn’t think it a great idea but Mike argued that he needed to eat it to win.
After several months of being the top one of every race he swam, though he wouldn’t admit it, he was also starting to feel a little uncomfortable. All that ice cream was adding a few pounds to him. Practices were getting a little harder for Mike to keep the speeds he was used to getting.
Soon Mike became the last one in his races. The lucky chocolate ice cream lost its magic. Mike didn’t know what to do. He had been certain that it was the ice cream that helped him win.
On the day of his next swim meet, his mother told him it was not a good idea to eat so much ice cream because of its high fat and sugar. Maybe it was time to stop. Mike followed his mother’s advice, unwillingly. He lost the game again.
