26、When you are visiting the Florida Panhandle, take a day to visit the four remarkable lighthouses on the “Forgotten Coast”.
St. Marks Lighthouse
Constructed in 1842, it is located on the east side of the entrance to the St. Marks River. Over the years, oil, kerosene, and electricity have powered the lamp which could be seen up to 15 miles. In 1960, the light was automated. The tower is closed to climbing but the restored Keeper’s Quarters are open the first Friday and Saturday of each month, 10am—4pm.
Crooked River Lighthouse
The lighthouse stands on the mainland. It is open, weather permitting, for climbs Wednesday through Friday 11 am—4pm, Saturday 9am—4pm and Sunday 1 pm—4pm. The cost for climbing the lighthouse is $5 per person. All climbers must be at least 44 inches tall.
Cape St. George Lighthouse
It stands at the center of St. George Island. The beach erosion (侵蚀) caused its collapse on October 21, 2005. Dedicated volunteers saved more than 22, 000 original bricks from the ruins and with community support and public and private funding, it was successfully rebuilt. The lighthouse is open daily except Thursday. Climbing fees are $5 for adults; $3 for children. The lighthouse and gift shop are open daily 10am—5 pm（Sunday: noon—5pm; Thursday: closed).
Cape San Bias Lighthouse
It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2015. Tower climbs are available($5 for adults, $3 for children over 44 inches tall and under age 12). It is open for climbing Wednesday through Saturday 11 am—5pm. Call to ask about extended summer or holiday hours and be sure to visit its Sleeping Beauty Gift Shop, which offers a display of paintings of all Florida’s lighthouses by Mary Alice Cullifer.

27、The first time I questioned the traditional wisdom on the nature of a healthy diet, it was 40 years ago, and the subject was salt. Researchers found that salt supplementation(补充) was unnecessary after exercise, and this advice was passed on by health reporters. I recalled high school football practices in hot days. Without salt pills, I couldn’t make it through a two-hour practice.
Although sports nutritionists have recommended consuming more salt when we sweat hard in physical activity, the message that we should avoid salt at all other times remains strong. And salt is still considered deadly.
So why have we been told that salt is so deadly? The advice has always sounded reasonable: Eat more salt, and your body keeps water to maintain a stable concentration of sodium (钠) in your blood. This is why salty food might make us thirsty: We drink more; we keep water. The result can be a temporary increase in blood pressure. The scientific question is whether this temporary phenomenon leads to permanent problems: If we eat too much salt for years, does it cause high blood pressure, and then kill us? It makes sense, but it’s only a hypothesis(假设), which hasn’t been proved but unfortunately accepted as a fact.
In reality, eating less salt can worsen health. Decades ago, Italian researchers’ study reported that reducing salt consumption increased the risk of dying early and that reducing sodium to a government-recommended “safe upper limit” is actually harmful.
Supporters of the eat-less-salt campaign(运动) tend to deal with this opposing evidence (证据) by implying that anyone raising it is a shill(同谋) for the food industry (widely criticized for adding salt to processed foods to improver taste). When several government agencies held a hearing last November to discuss how to ensure Americans eat less salt, anti-salt supporters argued that the latest reports suggesting damage from lower-salt diets should simply be ignored. This attitude, which lacks respect for science, has been held for the anti-salt campaign for decades. Maybe now is the time for it to change.
【1】The underlined phrase in paragraph 1 refers to the belief that_________.
A．people should take in salt after exercise
B．salt intake was needless after physical activity
C．salt pills were helpful during football practices
D．a healthy diet does not necessarily include enough salt
【2】What does the Italian researchers’ study show?
A．Eating less salt can harm our health.
B．Eating too much salt raises blood pressure.
C．We should try to avoid salt on a daily basis.
D．We should follow the recommended “safe upper limit”.
【3】What do the eat-less-salt campaigners do with the opposing evidence?
A．They treat it with some respect.
B．They report it to the government agencies.
C．They do scientific experiments to support it.
D．They suggest that the food industry is behind it.
【4】What is the writer’s attitude towards the anti-salt campaign?
A．Supportive.
B．Unconcerned.
C．Puzzled.
D．Negative.
28、This Mother’s Day we asked a handful of children’s book experts and writers which stories and characters come to mind when they think about motherhood.
Runaway Bunny
by Margaret Wise Brown
Since it was first published in 1942, Brown’s Runaway Bunny has never gone out of print. It is pretty much a work of genius! Brown opened the door for parents to feel like they’re reading a story about love and caring about their children while the children are exploring their own individual identity and how close they are or separated they are from the adults in their lives.
Brown Angels: An Album of Pictures and Verse
by Walter Dean Myers
It is a collection of photographs Myers collected over the years. Myers writes, “Seeing their faces scrubbed and beaming and them dressed in their Sunday best makes me think about the hardworking parents and grandparents who have taken time to take care of their children.”
Mommy’s Hometown
by Hope Lim
This story is about a boy and his mother’s trip to her childhood home in Korea. The boy discovers the town is not how he imagined it would be. Mommy’s Hometown starts from the specific lens (镜头) of Korean culture, but has the universal feature of memory and perception.

【1】Which statement of Runaway Bunny is NOT correct?

29、If you’ve ever wondered how often you should shampoo (用洗发剂洗) your hair, you’re not alone. 【1】 While many people prefer to wash their hair daily, others think that once every few days is best. But that still leaves us with the very important question - how much is too much?
【2】 When you wash your hair with shampoo, the surfactant (表面活性剂) in the shampoo mixes with water and works to clean dirt and oil from your hair. Although clean hair is definitely a good thing, frequent shampooing can lead to some problems such as split ends (发梢开叉) and dull hair.
Most people who wash their hair every day say they do it to avoid a build-up of oil. But in fact, skipping a wash is the best way to prevent oil from building up. Most often the oily substance in your hair doesn’t come from natural oil but from the products you use for treatment and styling. 【3】
Actually, how often you should shampoo your hair depends on your hair type. People who sweat a lot or live in a humid area may need to shampoo their hair more frequently. 【4】 If your hair is oily, you should try to use a shampoo that is specially designed for oily hair.
Since thicker hair collects less oil, it’ll need less washing. 【5】 Anyway, the best way to know how often to wash your hair is to experiment. As long as you don’t have scalp (头皮) problems, you can wash your hair once a week.
A．It is evident that shampoo can be harmful to your hair.
B．Oily hair, on the other hand, is more difficult to deal with.
C．Washing your hair every day can be costly and unhelpful.
D．It’s a question that has been bothering thousands of people.
E．In addition, dry and curly hair can often be left unwashed for days.
F．You may notice some changes if you start skipping washing your hair.
G．To answer that, we first need to understand what happens when you wash your hair.
