26、Honeybees can do three kinds of jobs.

It is one of the most unusual insects in the world. Bees are special because they divide up their honeybee work. Each bee has a certain job to do.

The busiest bee is the worker. Workers build the nest, called a hive. Inside the hive, workers make a honeycomb from wax(蜂蜡). They store honey there for food. Workers are always cleaning and fixing the hive. They even stand at the opening and fan their wings to cool the hive. Worker bees will attack anything—even people—to keep their hive safe, if need.

Another kind of bee is the drone(雄蜂). Drones are male bees, and their job is to fly with the queen bee and mate with her. After the queen mates, the worker bees drive the drones away. The drones then starve to death.

The third kind of bee is the queen. Each hive needs only one queen, and her job is laying eggs. She can lay as many as 2, 000 eggs a day.

【1】The bee’s nest is called a _______.

A. hive   B. honeycomb

A. They lay 2, 000 eggs each day and build a nest.

27、   The beach may seem like an inviting place to run on a cool summer morning, but is running on the sand good for your body? It can be, but it’s important to be aware of the challenges that some beach runners experience before you get ready.

Running on the beach can be a good thing. It’s certainly different from running on a track or a pavement. For starters, sand can be a challenge because it has an uneven (不平坦的) surface. As you push off, you’re going to lose some of your push as the sand moves. So, you’re not going to be able to push yourself forward as you would on a track or a pavement. But this unevenness has an upside; It gives your body an extra workout, forcing you to exercise muscles that don’t get as much use during runs on firm surfaces. For example, your feet, ankles and lower back might feel sorer and more tired than usual after a beach run just because the surface is constantly moving and changing step to step.

You also might feel sore afterward because beaches tend to slope (倾斜) down to the water. If you’re going for a long run on the beach, you might notice that one side of your body might feel sorer because you’re putting more pressure on it due to the slope.

Some beach runners prefer to run barefoot — not wearing anything on feet. However, if you’re not used to barefoot running, start slowly and don’t run long distances at first. That’s because running barefoot uses more different muscles than running with shoes does, and it’s important to strengthen these muscles and adapt your feet. If you want to run barefoot and as long as you run carefully enough into it, go for it!

Running on the sand can be a smart choice for you, because running on softer ground surfaces can reduce muscle damage.

【1】Why is it difficult to run on the beach for starters?

A.Running on its uneven surface takes much effort.

B.People need to run carefully on its smooth surface.

C.The soft surface makes people fall over easily.

D.It’s hard to keep one’s balance on its hard surface.

【2】Which of the following best explains “upside” underlined in Paragraph 2?

A.Character. B.Reason.

C.Advantage. D.Challenge.

【3】The passage can probably be found in ________.

A.A primary school textbook B.A sports magazine

C.A tourist guide D.A scientific report

28、Having a party is a great way to spend time with friends and celebrate special occasions. 【1】: plan things before the party, in the party and after the party, which are necessary for a successful party.

29、Many of us live with a roommate at some stage. Sometimes, there can be problems. Who hasn’t had an argument about whose turn it is to take out the rubbish or who should be the one to clear up after dinner? However, living with another person also comes with many benefits.

You know that there’s always someone else around, which can help you feel safer. There is always someone to talk to, so you never feel lonely. Besides these obvious benefits, there are some you may not notice. For example, we’re actually more likely to eat healthier food when living with others.

To examine the effect of living alone, Australian university researchers did much research and found that people living alone tended to eat less fresh food, which can have a significant negative effect on long-term health. However, those living with others generally benefited from a more varied diet compared to those living alone.

What could explain these findings? The researchers believe the social and cultural roles played by cooking, food preparation and eating may be important considerations. For example, those living with friends have someone else to go shopping with, and thus are likely to buy higher-quality fresh food regularly.

Cooking skills may be another factor. If people living alone find they do not have the knowledge required to prepare a particular dish or cook a certain food, they may fall back on ready-made, less healthy food. However, if they live with at least one other person, they may be able to ask for help.

In addition, people living alone can eat whatever they want at any time of the day or night. However, it’s helpful to have someone around who questions your decision to eat frozen pizza at 3 am. In other words, roommates can draw your attention to unhealthy routines.

So, if you now live alone and find yourself fighting a losing battle against poor eating habits, why not consider sharing a home with someone else? You could encourage one another to be healthier and more well-being.

30、When you say that someone has a good memory, what exactly do you mean? Are you saying that the person has fast recall or that he or she_________ information quickly? Or maybe you just mean that the person remembers a lot about her or his childhood. The truth is that it is ___________ to say exactly what memory is. Even scientists who have been studying memory for decades say they are still trying to _________ exactly what it is. We do know that a particular memory is not just one thing stored somewhere in the brain._________, a memory is made up of bits and pieces of information stored all over the brain. Perhaps the best way to _________ memory is to say that it is a process—a process of recording, storing, and getting back information. Practice and repetition can help to _________ the pieces that make up our memory of that information.

Memory can be _________ affected by a number of things._________ nutrition can affect a person’s ability to store information. Excessive alcohol use can also weaken memory and cause permanent _________ to the brain over the long term. A vision or hearing problem may affect a person’s ability to notice certain things, thus making it __________ to register information in the brain.

If you want to call a store or an office that you don’t call often, you look in the telephone book for the number. You dial the number, and then you forget it! You use your short-term memory to remember the number. Your short-term memory lasts about 30 seconds, or half a minute.__________, you don’t need to look in the telephone book for your best friend’s number, because you already know it. This number is in your long-term memory, which ____________information about things you have learned and experienced through the years.
