26、The world is full of tea drinkers. For many, they simply enjoy the taste. But new research suggests tea might help those who drink it live longer than those who do not. Tea is known to contain substances (物质) that can help reduce inflammation (炎症). Past studies in China and Japan have suggested several health benefits of green tea. Now, scientists say black tea may show similar benefits.
Scientists from the United States National Cancer Institute carried out the study. They examined years of data gathered about the tea-drinking behavior of almost 500, 000 adults in Britain, where black tea is the most common tea. The study found that high tea intake (摄取量)—two or more cups a day—was linked to a moderate benefit: a 9 to 13 percent lower risk of death from any cause than non-tea drinkers. Scientists say the lowered risk of death held true for study subjects with heart disease. However, researchers said there was no clear finding in connection with deaths from cancer.
Tea contains various elements, including polyphenols (多酚), Polyphenols are considered responsible for the health benefits that have traditionally been linked to ten, especially green tea. Green tea is reported to improve mental ability, alleviate digestive problems and head pain, and help people with weight loss. It has also been studied for possible protective effects against heart disease and cancer.
However, the study of British tea drinkers was based on observing people’s behaviors and health. This kind of method cannot prove cause and effect. “Observational studies like this always raise the question: Is there something else that makes tea drinkers healthier?” said Marion Nestle, a professor of food studies at New York University. “The study does not offer enough evidence to advise people to change their tea behaviors. If you drink one cup a day already, I think that is good,” said Inoue Choi, who led the study.
【1】What does the new study mainly focus on?
A．The effects of tea on health.
B．The popularity of tea culture.
C．The harmful substances in tea.
D．The right amount of tea intake.
【2】According to the study, people with high tea intake are likely to ______.
A．stay focused
B．develop cancer
C．get heart disease
D．have a lower risk of death
【3】What does the underlined word “alleviate” in paragraph 3 probably mean?
A．Cause.
B．Worsen.
C．Relieve.
D．Hide.
【4】What does the author intend to do in the last paragraph?
A．To provide advice on how to drink tea.
B．To point out the possible limitations of the study.

27、 I found my email address was sold online, so now instead of just getting letters from the few charities(慈善机构) I can afford to support, I am also getting letters from a dozen other charities asking for my help. One of my more cynical(愤世嫉俗的) friends talked a lot about the old saying, “No good deed ever goes unpunished.” I just smiled and didn't argue knowing it wouldn't change his mind. My own mind, however, was remembering another moment from many years ago.
It was a windy, snowy day in December. I was a young dad who had saved just enough cash to buy my children a few presents for Christmas. As I walked to the store I saw the Salvation Army kettle with a man ringing a bell standing beside it. Next to him was his daughter, a little girl no more than three feet tall, got together against the biting cold. I took a one -dollar bill out of my wallet and dropped it into the kettle. As the man was thanking me, though, I felt pressure on my legs. I looked down and saw that the little girl was giving me her own thank you hug. I smiled down at her, bent down and hugged her back. Then I went inside feeling the warmth that no winter wind could ever take away.
Thinking back to that moment in time reminded me that no good deed ever goes unrewarded(无回报的). We may not always get a heartfelt hug but in time every act of giving, every act of kindness, and every act of love that we make flows from heart to heart and soul to soul, around the world and back to us again.
No good deed is ever wasted. Don't let this sometimes cynical world get you down then. Share your love today! Give from your heart. Fill your life with acts of kindness.
【1】Why did the author receive a lot of letters?
A.His mailbox was made public. B.He had a good many friends.

【3】What does the author really want to say in Paragraph 3?
A.A good deed is never lost. B.A little help is worth a deal of pity.
C.No good deed ever goes unpunished. D.Treat others as you want to be treated.
【4】Which of the following can best describe the author?
A.Considerate. B.Brave. C.Helpful. D.Thankful.
28、Your dog might follow simple commands such as “sit”, or become uncontrollably excited at the mention of the word “out”, but when it comes to remembering the names of toys and other everyday items, most seem pretty absent-minded. But now a study of six “genius (天才) dogs” has found something new.
Hungarian researchers spent more than two years scouring the globe for dogs who could recognize the names of their various toys. Although most can learn commands to some degree, learning the names of items appears to be a very different task for most dogs. Six dogs across the world eventually stood out after proving they knew the names of more than 28 toys, with some knowing more than 100. They then took part in what was known as the Genius Dog Challenge.
“These gifted dogs can learn new names of toys at a remarkable speed,” said Dr. Claudia Fugazza at Eötvös Loránd University in Budapest. “In our previous study we found that they could learn a new toy name after hearing it only four times. But, with such short exposure, they did not form a long-term memory of it.”
To push the limits of the dogs' talents, the researchers asked their owners to teach them the names of 6, and then 12 new toys in a single week. “It turned out that this was not much of a challenge. They easily learned between 11 to 12 toys,” said Dr. Shany Dror from the same university. The dogs could also remember these names when they were tested two months later. The research was published in Royal Society Open Science.
“Dogs are good models for studying human behaviour as they evolve (进化) and develop in the human environment,” said one of the study's co-authors, Prof Adám Miklési. “With these talented dogs we have a unique opportunity to study how another species (物种) understands the human language, and how learning words influences the way we think about the world.”
【1】What does the underlined word “scouring” in paragraph 2 probably mean?
A．preserving.
B．searching.
C．changing.
D．shaping.
【2】What is the focus of the research led by Eötvös Loránd University?
A．The potential of dogs' memory.
B．The link between dogs and their owners.
C．The speed at which dogs respond to commands.
D．The number of toys whose names dogs can remember.
【3】What is the last paragraph mainly about?
A．The background of the research.
B．The outline of the research.
C．The significance of the research.
D．The application of the research.
