26、I was diagnosed at the age of 14 with a disease, which the doctors said would leave me in a wheelchair at 25 and dead at 40. Luckily, it didn’t happen as predicted. The disease never spread to my legs, for which I am very grateful.

Still, everything I did hurt, from opening a door to putting on my clothes. I no longer had the ability to move my thumbs, and my left hand was functionally paralyzed (功能性瘫痪). I was in constant pain because I lacked the muscle strength required to do these simple tasks.

After undergoing 40 years of this disease, I decided to step into the world of alternative (可替代的/非传统的) healing. I learned to allow the flow of grace to heal and care for me.

Healing is having the courage to love yourself, and trusting you deserve a better life and healthier existence. When I adopted that new belief system, my entire being started to shift into wellness.

Slowly and steadily, I was unlocking myself from the only existence I had known. I began to imagine a new life filled with joy and acceptance. If my heart healed, my body would heal.

As I became more in touch with the energy around me, I learned the incredible power of words and how we receive exactly what we ask for. I came to understand that everything in life is an offering, an opportunity to grow.

We always have a choice. We can remain trapped in past belief patterns and behaviors that no longer serve us, or we can create a new story, one that is truer to ourselves.

I learned that “forgiveness + compassion = healing”. When we forgive ourselves, and others, we heal the hurt and discomfort. When we are compassionate (有同情心的) and graceful, we attract the same. As a result of my efforts, I now live each day in joy and gratitude.

Since I can heal, anyone can heal. We are here to be in our heart’s desire and live our purpose.

27、In habitats across the planet, animals periodically drop everything to walk, fly or swim to a new place. Wildlife such as whales and geese learn migration paths by following their parents. Others, including small songbirds, gain the distance and direction of their migration within their genetic code. And some animals use a combination of genetics and culture to guide their migration.

Another group of migrators does not quite fit either model, and researchers have only recently started to figure out how they find their way. Take the Cory’s shearwater, an oceangoing sea bird that migrates over the Atlantic every year. The young do not migrate with their parents, so culture cannot explain their journeys. And the exact paths vary wildly from individual to individual, making genetics equally unlikely.

Cory’s shearwaters are long-lived, rarely producing young successfully before age nine. This leaves an opening for learning and practice to develop their migration patterns. Researchers call this the “exploration-refinement”, and until now it has been hypothetical (假设的) because of difficulties in tracking migratory animals’ movements.

But a team of researchers has done that by attaching small geolocators to more than 150 of the birds aged four to nine. They found that younger birds traveled longer distances, for longer periods, and had more diverse paths than older birds. “We finally have evidence of the ‘exploration-refinement’ for migratory birds,” says Letizia Campioni, who led the study. Younger Cory’s shearwaters are able to fly just as fast as the adults— but they do not, suggesting that the young do more exploring, which gradually fades as they mature and settle into a preferred course.

Although it may seem less efficient than other strategies, “exploration refinement could be beneficial to birds and other organisms in a rapidly changing world due to unpredictable man-made changes,” says Barbara Frei. “It might be safer to repeat a behavior that was recently successful than to rely on patterns that were perfected long ago but might no longer be safe.”

【1】What is the first paragraph mainly about?        .

A．It describes animals’ habitats.

B．It talks about migration models.

C．It compares different species.

D．It introduces a tracking technology.

【2】What does the underlined word “this” in paragraph 3 refer to?

A．The opening for learning and practice.

B．The unique living habit of Cory’s shearwaters.

C．The way Cory’s shearwaters form their migration patterns.

D．The process scientists track Cory’s shearwaters’ movements.

【3】What does Letizia’s study find about the younger Cory’s shearwaters?

A．They travel as much as adult birds.

B．They move in a predictable manner.

C．They lower the speed for exploration.

D．They look for a course with their parents.

【4】What can we conclude from the last paragraph?

A．Man-made changes make migration easier.

B．Animals make a safer journey via a fixed track.

C．Course exploration contributes to birds’ adaptability.

D．A combination of strategies assures migration success.

28、Living a healthy lifestyle lies in forming the right eating habits. Here are some of the good habits you. can develop when it comes to healthy eating.

Drink plenty of water. You must drink at least 8 glasses of water a day. You may need even more water if you are in a hot environment or if you are exercising.

Eat breakfast. Breakfast is the most important meal of the day. A recent study has shown that those who eat breakfast will consume an average of 100 calories less during the day than their colleagues who skipped breakfast. They will also be able to concentrate better.

Don’t skip lunch. If you do so, your blood sugar level will drop and your metabolism (新陈代谢) will slow down. When you get home, you are starving and eat everything you can find.

We all need to snack from time to time, but please choose your snacks carefully. In fact, it’s a good idea to eat two healthy snacks besides your three main meals. Choose healthy snacks like fruits and vegetables, low fat yogurt, cottage cheese with apple sauce, and so on.

Eat your fruit and vegetables. We should eat at least 5 servings of fruits and vegetables a day. Take a piece of fruit for a snack, add some banana and raisins to your favourite breakfast cereal, have a salad with lunch, and eat at least one vegetable at dinner each night.

Do not eat your dinner too late. Try to eat dinner at least 3 hours before you go to bed. This will give your body a chance to digest most of the food before you rest for the next 8 hours. Plan dinner for the week ahead of time and make sure you have everything you need in the house so other family members can get a head start on dinner if you have a late meeting at the office.

【1】How many good eating habits are mentioned in the passage?

A．8.

B．7.

C．6.

D．5.

【2】The underlined word “raisin” most probably means “______”.

A．a peach leaf

B．a dried grape

C．a piece of cheese

D．a peanut

【3】Who is this passage intended for?

A．Students.

B．Housewives.

C．Office workers.

D．Cooks.

29、   How’s this for a coincidence (巧合)? Charles Darwin and Abraham Lincoln were born in the same year, on the same day: Feb. 12, 1809. Although people hardly think of them together, we want to say that they belong together. It’s not just because they are both great men, and not because they happened to live at the same time. Rather, it’s because the scientist and the politician each started a revolution that changed the world.

They are both revolutionaries in the sense that both men changed the reality when they were born. They seem and sound modern to us, because the world they left behind them is more or less the one we still live in. So, considering the joint greatness of their contributions and the coincidence of their birthdays—it is hard to wonder: who was the greatest man? It’s an apples and oranges-or Superman vs. Santa-comparison. But if you limit the question to influence, very quickly the balance tips in Lincoln’s favor.

As great as his book on evolution is, it does no harm to remember that Darwin hurried to publish The Origin of Species because he thought he was about to be scooped (抢先) by his fellow naturalist Alfred Russel Wallace. Lincoln, however, is unique. True, his election as the president did cause the recession (经济衰退) and the war, but that war seemed certain to happen—not a question of if but when. Certainly we know what happened after he was murdered: Reconstruction was organized and then abandoned, leaving the issue of racial (种族的) equality unsolved for another century.

Surely we should not deny Darwins’ accomplishment. But their same birthdays gave us great opportunity to observe these men of their time.

【1】Why does the author say Charles Darwin and Abraham Lincoln belong together?

A.They were born on the same day. B.They lived in the same period of time.

C.They started revolutions changing the world. D.They were both great men in history.

【2】What does the author mean by “an apples and oranges-or Superman vs. Santa-comparison”?

A.It is hard to tell which one is greater as they are both outstanding.

B.The comparison between Darwin and Lincoln is easy and obvious.

C.It is difficult to compare them as they are as famous as Superman and Santa.

D.There is no point comparing them because they were born on the same day.

【3】Which of the following can best describe Lincoln’s contributions to the world?

A.Narrow. B.Objective. C.Challenging. D.Groundbreaking.

【4】What can we learn from the passage?

A.Lincoln’s success in election caused Reconstruction.

B.Lincoln had tried to solve the racial problem.

C.Darwin was unique compared with Lincoln.

D.Darwin,s theory is similar to Lincoln’s belief.

31、A few years ago, I was working in a small office. I noticed that even though the size of the organization was not huge, we often worked in our different teams.

One particular week, I decided I wanted to make people smile but I wanted to do it 【1】 (secret). So one evening I wrote up some quotes that had inspired me over the years. The next morning, I went to work early and 【2】 (张贴) them up by the sinks and mirrors in the office restrooms. Maybe someone else would enjoy the quotes 【3】 (如同我一样) I had. And perhaps it 【4】 (may) just freshen their day.

For the next few months, some of the quotes 【5】 (take) down. But I noticed that a couple remained. Eventually, I finished out my contact 【6】 that organization, but I’d still often get emails from my former boss and teammates.

A few months ago, I was invited to reunion with my 【7】 (同事) . 【8】 I no longer worked in this office, I had really enjoyed 【9】 (work) with my team and was happy to see them again. Towards the end of the event, I went to the bathroom and found a quote that I 【10】 (write) two and half years earlier was still up in the same spot by the mirror. It reads: “The real voyage of discovery consists not in seeking new lands, but seeing with new eyes” ——Marcle Proust.
