26、Why Is Exercise Important to Teenagers and How to Get Started?
Teens get involved in a lot of things in high school. Some are involved in clubs and others are part of the band. There are many reasons why sports are great for teens and here’s how they can get started.
One of the biggest benefits for teens to be involved in sports is that it keeps them active. Some teens would be content to play video games or watch television all the time they’re at home. If a teen spends all their waking time being inactive they could gain weight and become unhealthy. 【1】
Be sure your child knows to warm up properly before playing any sport. Warming up before any physical activity will help your child avoid injury. 【2】
Encourage your teens to try out for one high school sport. Perhaps they’re not comfortable with football, but that doesn’t mean they wouldn’t excel in swimming or tennis. They may also enjoy playing baseball or soccer. Girls may enjoy basketball, swimming.
Many sports team will require that students try out before being able to join. Try-outs may include showing how active your teen is, running, jumping or if they are quick enough. They want to ensure your teen has at least the minimum skills required for the sport they’re trying out for. 【3】 That shouldn’t prevent them from trying to play team sports. There are often teams with the YMCA or other leagues which are just for fun.
Being a part of a sports team can also help your teen make friends. 【4】 They spend so much time during practice and at games that they can become very close. Of course, no one will be able to take your place as their family, but you’ll be glad they’re able to make good friends.
A．Athletes almost become like a second family.
B．This is a good practice whether they’re practicing with the team or exercising on their own.
C．Do everything you can to encourage your teen.
D．Being a part of a sports team will help them burn calories so they will remain healthier.
E．Your teens may not feel that they’re good enough to make their high school sports team.
F．High school coaches are going to do their best to keep their team members healthy.
27、 Nowadays with the development of technology， people have gradually relied on the mobile phones seriously.Many people， especially the younger generation， like to use social media to connect with others. However， everyone is ignoring an important point- face-to-face communication between people is missing.
Social media is all about connecting with others. But a new study suggests that too much social media use leads to disconnection and loneliness. The study finds that heavy use of platforms such as Facebook， Snapchat， and Instagram is associated with feelings of isolation among young adults.
Brian Primack and his team in the study surveyed that 1，787 U.S. adults aged 19to 32 and asked them about their usage of 11 social media platforms. Surprisingly，people that spend more time on social media feel lonelier than others.
Tom Kersting， a psychotherapist， said“Although people think being on social media all the time makes them‘connected’ to others， they are actually‘disconnected，’because the more time one spends behind a screen， the less time one spends face-to-face.”Kersting continued. “They are spending a lot of time looking at everyone else’s posts， where they are， where they are going and what they are doing.The constant connection to everyone else’s‘perfect’life experiences causes feelings of being left out， and of being lonely.”
So what’s the answer?“It’s simple，” says Kersting—although it does involve a significant amount of willpower.“The solution to this is refusing the addiction to look at everyone else’s life.Just focus on your own life， where you’re going， what you are grateful for， and what you want to achieve in this world. Then go out and do it， andstop wasting so much time comparing.”
【1】Which word below can replace the underlined word“isolation”in Paragraph 2?
A. satisfaction B. separation
C. sadness D. happiness
【2】Wat's the result of the new study?
A. Too much social media use causes loneliness.
B. Young people rely too much on mobile phones.
C. The effect the social media has on everyone is equal.
D. More time on social media contributes to more friends.
【3】According to Kersting， how to prevent people feeling left out and lonely?
A. Learn to improve one's willpower.
B. Cut down the time spent on social activities.
C. Share one's own perfect life instead of viewing others'.
D. Concentrate on one's own life rather than anyone else's.
【4】What's the best title for the text?
A. No Looking at Others' Perfect Life
B. Social Media May Not be So Social
C. Face-to-face Communication Comes First
D. Our Life Will be Destroyed by Social Media
28、 Studies have shown that walking among trees makes us relaxed. 【1】There’s plenty of research showing the link between being in nature and being happy, but most of the research has focused on adults.
【2】 Explaining the motivation behind the study, researchers note that with environmental issues such as global warming, more studies are focusing on the relationships between humans and nature to find solutions to these problems, and the future of the planet lies in the hands of children and their actions. However, few studies focus on this aspect.
For the study, researchers worked with 296 children between the ages of 9 and 12. To measure how connected they were to nature, the kids were asked how much they enjoy activities like seeing wildflowers and wild animals, hearing sounds of nature and touching animals and plants. 【3】They also found that the more concerned children were about the environment and nature, the more likely they were to be happy.
So exposure to nature is related to active behaviors and happiness of children. What does that mean to adults? As we all know, children usually tend to follow adults’, especially their parents’ behaviors. That’s to say, when adults are outside and appreciate nature, kids learn by example. 【4】
Researchers say that children need role models who can gently guide them to nature with excitement and an attitude of a lifelong learner. 【5】 What’s more important is that they spend time together with children by exploring a fun and safe environment.
A.It’s so good going for a walk around trees.
B.Even just smelling the trees helps reduce anxiety.
C.And if parents enjoy being close to nature, so will their children.
D.Parents don’t have to be experts in environmental science or nature studies.
E.They found that the kids connected to nature were more likely to behave actively.
F.In a new study researchers wanted to see if kids get the same benefits from being outdoors.
G.Researchers will study more about the connection between children’s happiness and nature.
29、 China is known for its long history, rich culture, and cute pandas. It’s also known for some of the worst air quality in the world. But the Asian country is now using a natural weapon against air pollution — trees.
In February, China’s government announced plans to cover at least 32,400 square miles with forest. That is about the size of Ireland. Some 60,000 soldiers will take charge of the tree-planting program. Most of the trees will be planted in Hebei Province. That is an area surrounding China’s capital, Beijing.
Huang Wei is an environmentalist who works for Greenpeace East Asia. She is optimistic about the plan. “Trees act as a sink to absorb carbon dioxide and other pollutants,” she said. Carbon dioxide is a gas that traps the Earth’s heat. It contributes to global warming.
Why is China’s air filled with harmful chemicals? It’s because the country relies on coal-fired power plants. When coal is burned, PM2.5 is produced. PM2.5 is a pollutant. It can cause shortness of breath, heart attacks, and even death.
Just two years ago, pollution levels were so high in Beijing that schools and factories had to close. Huang hopes China’s tree-planting plan will reduce the nation’s suffering from air pollution.
The Chinese government is getting help from others in its drive to make the nation greener. Stefano Boeri is an Italian architect and urban planner. He is leading an effort to plant vertical (垂直的) forests in China.
Boeri’s designs have already taken root in the city of Nanjing, China. That’s where the Nan-jing Green Towers are under construction. The building has two towers. Thousands of trees and hanging plants will grow on the balconies and rooftops.
Boeri says his goal is to design buildings that help the environment and improve air quality. He also hopes to encourage a new generation of green architects.
【1】What measure is China taking to improve the air quality according to the passage?
A.Planting more tress.
B.Closing the electricity factories.
C.Forbidding people to burn coal.
D.Designing new buildings.
【2】What does Huang Wei think of the new plan?
A.Doubtful. B.Uncertain.
C.Promising. D.Ineffective.
【3】Which of the following has the closest meaning to “contributes to” in paragraph 3?
A.Adapts to. B.Results in.
C.Refers to. D.Concentrates on.
【4】Why is Stefano Boeri invited to China to design buildings?
A.Because his design can keep the polluted air outside the house.
B.Because his buildings are built in forest.
C.Because his design is special with two towers.
D.Because his design is environmentally friendly.

Once upon a time, a rich man hired a great mathematician (数学家) to find him a way to make him more money. The rich man was so g【1】 that he even built a giant safe and his dream was to fill it with gold and jewels.
The mathematician worked on the problem for months. One night he said to the rich man “I’ve done it! My idea is perfect! You’ll be wealthy b【2】 your wildest dreams.” The rich man was d【3】 to hear this. Before he left on a long journey, he promised the mathematician double pay to run his business for him.
When the rich man returned, he found that all of his wealth was gone. Very angry, he asked the mathematician to explain. The mathematician told him he’d g【4】 everything away to people in the neighborhood.
The mathematician said “There is a limit to how much wealth one can get by himself. Then I realized that many people could help us a【5】 our goal. By helping o【6】, you could gain the most!”
Disappointed, the rich man went away. As he was walking, every neighbor he met was so thankful to him that they o【7】 him anything he needed.
Over the next few weeks, the man saw the mathematician’s idea really w【8】. He was received with great honor w【9】 he went. Everyone did all they could to help him.

32、阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Many years ago, there lived a wealthy man in a big city who wanted to do something good. Raised in a small village, he made up his mind to help the people in his town. But before doing so, he wanted to do an experiment to find out who had the qualification for his help. So secretly he put a very large stone in the middle of the main road which led to the town. Then he stood behind a tree waiting and watching.
Several minutes later, an old man came along with his cow, “Who put the stone in the center of the road?” said the old man, but he didn’t try to move the stone away. He passed around the stone with some difficulties and continued on his way. Another man came along and did the same thing; then another came, and another. All of them complained about the stone in the center of the road but nobody tried to move it. Though the rich man was a little disappointed with what he had seen, he still chose to wait longer. In his heart, he wouldn’t like to believe that no one would do something with the stone. Therefore, he went on waiting and watching.
Later in the afternoon, a young man came along. He saw the stone and said, “It will be dark at night. Some people who will come along later in the dark are more likely to fall over the stone and get hurt.” Then the young man began to move the stone. Obviously, it was a big and heavy stone. In spite of this, he pushed and pulled and tried everything he could to move it out of the road. Finally, his hard work paid off. But to his surprise, under the stone, he found a bag full of money, along with a piece of paper reading, “This money is for the person who moves the stone from the road. The person deserves my help.”
