26、   Changes have been taking place in Philadelphia since 1984. One by one, graffiti-covered walls are being changed into outdoor art. So far, more than 1,800 murals (壁画) have been painted. Philadelphia now has more murals than any other American city.

The walls that were once ugly with graffiti (涂鸦) are now covered with beautiful pictures of historical heroes and modern art, thanks to the Mural Arts Program (MAP). Its work makes schools and public places attractive, and its citizens very proud. The program began as part of Philadelphia’s Anti-Graffiti Network. Jane Golden is the MAP’s artistic director. “When people ask me what our program is about,” she says, “I answer them with one word: hope.” Each year, the MAP offers youth art programs and workshops. Some onetime graffiti writers even help paint MAP murals.

The MAP’s work, says Golden, is all about developing a sense of community. When a neighborhood requests a mural, the MAP works with the people there to develop a message. Some messages have been “Safe Streets,” “Love and Care,” and “Peace Walk.”

The MAP receives up to 50 requests for murals each week. Last year, the workers painted 140 murals.

“The making of a mural enters people’s collective memory as an extraordinary, pleasant moment in neighborhood history” says Golden, who began as a muralist in Los Angeles.

B. MAP, a New Company in Philadelphia

C. Jane, an Excellent Mural Artist

D. Hope, One Wall at a Time

A. Helping the young find jobs. B. Protecting the neighborhood.

C. Fighting against graffiti. D. Attracting more visitors.

【3】How does the MAP decide on the message for a mural?

A. By having discussions with people in the community.

B. By seeking advice from the city government.

C. By learning from the young graffiti writers.

D. By studying the history of the city.

【4】Which of the following words best describes the work of the MAP?

A. Difficult. B. Dangerous.

27、   Maybe you have just been to the apple garden or maybe you couldn’t help yourself and brought the apples home from the grocery store. 【1】 Follow these easy tips and you’ll have good apples for two or three weeks at least.

Figure out where you’re going to put the apples first . When fully ripe(成熟的), apples become soft. 【2】They give off a chemical called ethylene gas that continues to soften the skin day after day. Keeping apples cold helps to slow the discharge of this gas, so place them in the drawer of the refrigerator to keep them cool.

【3】 They can be stored in a basket in a cool area of your home like a basement. A wire multi-type container is a great option because it allows air to circulate(流通) around the apples while they are being stored. If space is a problem, a wire hanging basket will offer the same benefit without taking up floor space. 【4】 That way, the air will not circulate easily, which can lead the apples to go bad.

To store apples for a long time, you had better wrap each apple lightly in a newspaper and place it in a wire container in a cool area of your home. Spin the apples regularly and remove those that are becoming soft. When considering long-term storage, look for Fuji, Granny Smith and Macintosh apple varieties. 【5】 Apples that are softer will not store as long.

A.Are they the right apples you like to have?

B.Don’t simply place them in a hardboard box.

C.They continue to ripen even after they are picked.

D.Keep them separate from other fruits and vegetables.

E.These types of apples are generally much firmer and have thicker skins.

F.But what if you have too many apples to easily fit in your refrigerator?

G.Either way, you want to keep the apples fresh and delicious as long as possible.

28、   A high-altitude rescue team has set new standards in the Himalayas this season, performing the highest altitude rescue ever completed. On May 19th, a rescue team successfully got a mountaineer from near Camp 3 at 23,000 feet on Everest (珠穆朗玛峰). The climber named Gautam nearly reached the top but became extremely exhausted and seriously dehydrated (脱水的).

After a difficult and dangerous rescue，the team was able to successfully save Gautam’s life.

In an interview with Moro, the pilot of the rescue team, he said, "You have to be prepared, technically, physically,and also mentally (心理上).” He added, “The aim wasn’t to set a record but to save someone’s life. ”

The team has flown rescue tasks using Nepalese helicopters (直升飞机) for two years but had the idea to create a team with its own helicopter, which has been able to complete this season. The entire operation is privately financed，and according to Moro, “doesn’t cost the Italian or Nepalese tax-payer a single cent.” Moro also flies tasks for the local population for “free or at extremely reduced prices”.

Moro sees potential (潜力) for the increasing number of high altitude Himalayan rescue operations. In the future, he hopes to see more than one team , as well as a specialised team of climbers that would be able to perform rescues at altitudes and in weather condition that are impossible for helicopters.

D.A Daring High-altitude Rescue on Everest Sets a Record.

29、   Books can't stop a global pandemic. But, for a short while, they can let us forget the world around us and transport us to different places, allowing us to travel in spirit. Here are some picks for this month:
