| On Earth We’re Briefly Gorgeous by Ocean Vuong _______________ Megan Williams, health food shop worker Lots of people have come into the shop seeking cures for anxiety and poor sleep during this time. And it feels nice to help them. After a long day at work, reading helps me relax. It lifts me out of my world and into his. It was good to feel someone, else’s experiences and pain instead of being in my own. |
| A Thousand Splendid Suns by Khaled Hosseini _______________ Margaret Person, civil servant and school governor clerk This year felt the right time to read this wonderful book, as the women in the book face so many challenges. It was a reminder that despite the COVID-19, our lives remain relatively good. The book takes you on a journey, and you feel like a part of the story. You feel their pain and emotion while gaining an understanding of life for women in Afghanistan. I really did forget about all anxieties while reading. |

During the COVID-19, views on life and security have changed. Not everything is in our control and no matter, how planned one is in applying order, disorder can happen. But in both life and chess, we must keep moving. Through reading, I was able to leave, whatever problems I was experiencing behind. |

28、When you were young, ginger ale（姜味汽水）may have been a popular choice for reducing the unpleasant feelings caused by your upset stomach on the road to get to school. For years, ginger has been used to reduce the effects of nausea（作呕）. But do you know it’s now also being looked at to fight cancer?
Scientists have discovered that ginger can kill cancerous cells in two different ways. On the one hand, ginger causes the cancer cells to “commit suicide” by destroying themselves while leaving the surrounding healthy cells untouched. Ginger can prevent the growth of diseased cells by destroying the environment they grow in. On the other hand, ginger tricks the diseased cells and causes them to fight among themselves. Researchers are now looking into one of the toughest cancers to fight. However, scientists find repeated treatment of disease by drugs can actually lose its effectiveness over time as the cancer builds up resistance（抵抗力）to the same treatment. This raises researchers’ confidence that ginger would help stop resistance from the cancer.
In a study, the cancer clearly stopped growing in the body of the mice that had been given ginger. The bad news is that such encouraging research has only been conducted on mice. The good news, however, is that it seems humans might be able to get the same benefit just by eating products with ginger and ginger root in them.
Cancer prevention and fighting abilities aren’t the only potential benefits you may get from adding a bit more ginger to your diet.
Drinking ginger ale when your stomach was upset as a child wasn’t just a placebo（安慰剂）.Numerous studies and research, including the Mayo Clinic’s strict grading system, agree that ginger has some sort of anti-nausea characteristics.
Some believe that ginger works well against nausea after operations, while others use it to reduce motion sickness such as seasickness and car sickness. The Mayo Clinic, however, advises the use of ginger only to reduce nausea during pregnancy. While more research needs to be done, early studies are very promising, especially in that small amounts of ginger don’t seem to do any harm to the mother or baby.
Other health benefits from ginger exist as well. Since ginger is often considered to be useful in warming bodies, it can improve the condition of people’s joints including knees and ankle joints. Some suggest that ginger can help cure a cough associated with the common cold. Another benefit of ginger is that it seems to have no real side effects, which is one of the main reasons it appears to be safe during pregnancy.
But for safety, you should always consult a doctor for instructions on daily use before starting, even with something like ginger that seems to have little to no side effects.
【1】Why do scientists think ginger can be used to fight against cancer?
A. Ginger can destroy diseased cells in two different ways.
B. Ginger is commonly considered as a kind of pain killer.
C. Ginger warms people’s bodies and helps them recover from operations.

【2】We can learn from the third paragraph that___________.

D. the research on ginger is promised to be carried out only on mice

29、After the Wichita State University men’s basketball team beat the team from Tarleton State on Tuesday, one player took an unusual victory lap around the stadium. Dexter Dennis stayed after the game to help staff at Koch Arena clean.
Dennis helped lead the Shockers to success, but he didn’t show off. Instead, the soft-spoken college junior from Louisiana did something very humble. The video from the court shows him picking up rubbish in the stands. No one asked him to do it.
The video was shared on Twitter by Taylor Eldridge, who covers Wichita State athletics for The Wichita Eagle newspaper. “Dexter is a different kind of guy,” Eldridge tweeted. The video quickly circulated, which received more than 1.5 million views and tens of thousands of likes.
“Wasn’t in trouble or anything. Didn’t have to. He just wanted to help out the cleaning workers,” Eldridge wrote in another tweet.
“Cleanup can take up to three hours after every game,” Wichita State University Facilities Director David Gomez said. “Seeing a student athlete staying to help is inspiring.”
“We have several people who have been here for many years and I know for some of them, that’s probably the first time they’ve seen something like that happen,” said Gomez. “And I want to say thank you for leading and showing us that there are still people out there who recognize the hard work that’s done around here.”
“It’s crazy that someone who just played the game helps clean up the stadium,” Wichita State student and golfer Max Wojciechowski told KWCH.
Dennis refused KWCH’s offer for an interview and has not responded to CBS News, but did address the moment on Twitter. “Didn’t do it for attention,” Dennis tweeted.
He played for 30 minutes during the game, hitting three of four shots from the field and also entering the top 10 all time for career three-pointers in Shocker history, KWCH reports.
