26、 I’ve always loved the Olympic Games. I was very happy when I was chosen to be one of the 50,000 volunteers for the 2012 London Olympic Games
In July 2012, it was time to get started. I got my schedule and began taking athletes, officals and other people from one place to another. I was so proud to be able to do something in my hometown. The London Games were great and everything went very well. Even the weather was on its best behavior When the games were all over, I was sad, butat the same time, the experience just made me even more enthusiastic(热情的). I said to myself I could do it all again.
Therefore, straight after the London Olympic Games, I made anew decision. Then in 2014,I sent off my application(申请). There was an online Skype interview with a small group of people from all over the world We were given 10 minutes to find a way to tell what the Olympic Games represent We worked as a group to compare ideas. In November 2015, I received an answer— I’d been accepted, I was so excited and really delighted. I was going to Rio, but in a completely different role.
In Rio, I worked on the scoreboard for women’s basketball matches. It was really interesting. It was all about the “statistical(统计的)” side of things, two-and three-point field goals, free throws, blocks, etc. It was an unbelievable experience. Rio is an amazing city. Some people were talking about the difficulties of hosting the Olympic Games beforehand(事先), but the Rio Olympic Games went off perfectly. The organizers did a great job. The Brazilians were really friendly to the volunteers. And they were particularly welcoming. As soon as they saw our uniforms, they wanted to help us.
I would never forget my experiences as a volunteer in those two Olympic Games.

27、 Rolling hills and endless green farmlands — those images are easy to appear when thinking of the country lifestyle. When lockdowns lasted so long across the world during the pandemic, social media seemed to be full of pictures of cottages and village life — people getting away from it all. So, why is living in the countryside becoming a modern fantasy? 【1】
It makes sense that some people would want to give up the crowded and noisy city streets for the peaceful country life — especially during an event like a pandemic. 【2】 But it's not just about having a greener place to look at out your window.
【3】 Villages don't normally adapt to the stop-go traffic we see in city centres. There's less air pollution in the countryside, which increases the chances of developing respiratory conditions or heart disease. 【4】 That is to say, you can get more exercise. All above can also lead to less stress and an increased life expectancy.
However, there are some things that need to be considered. 【5】 And as people get older, life far from doctors or public transport could become a bit of a challenge. So, if you're considering a change of pace and moving to a peaceful village, there is a range of pros and cons to consider before taking actions.
A.Many young are moving to the city to make a fortune.
B.Why do people prefer the city life to the country life?
C.Are there benefits to considering a slower pace of life?
D.There is more evidence that relates to the benefits of rural living.
E.You also get more opportunities to take long walks and see the sights.
F.Living far from the city means some people may feel separated or even lonely.
G.The lockdowns have given people time to think about what they want from life.
28、Therapy (治疗) dogs have long visited nursing homes and schools and even disaster sites, offering comfort to humans. A new study shows that a 10-minute visit from a therapy dog can help relieve patients’ pain in the emergency room.
The research from the University of Saskatchewan, published in the journal PLOS on Wednesday, found that emergency room patients who were visited by a therapy dog reported less pain than those who weren’t.
“Therapy dogs themselves are really friendly and are so excited to visit with people in places where they don’t typically have a pet.” Dr. Colleen Dell, a professor at the University of Saskatchewan and one of the study authors, told NPR.
In a trial (试验), researchers asked more than 200 patients to report their pain levels. One group of patients received a 10-minute visit from a therapy dog and the other group did not. After the visit, researchers asked patients in both groups to report their pain levels again. Those who spent 10 minutes with the dog reported less pain, the study found.
“Many patients have experienced positive outcome from therapy dogs, but this study clinically proves them”, said Dell, herself a therapy dog handler.
Stempien, an associate professor of emergency medicine at the University of Saskatchewan has seen the dogs in action at the hospital where he works. Before the pandemic (大流行病), a therapy dog would visit multiple times a week. During visits, the dog would often make a stop in the nursing lounge (休息室) before visiting with patients.
“I think it brought smiles on faces of almost all the staff they interacted with,” Stempien told NPR.
But the people aren’t the only ones getting something out of this. “Therapy dogs love their job. They love to interact with people.” Dell said, “Though we need more research on this, we believe they also gain something out of it as well as giving while visiting with people.”
【1】How did researchers carry out their study?
A.Collecting numbers.
B.Organizing tests.
C.Studying previous study projects.
D.Conducting questionnaires.
【2】Which of the following is true about the trial?
A.Different patients received different treatments from the therapy dogs.
B.Those visited by the therapy dogs reported more positive results.
C.Those visited by the therapy dogs lessen their pain totally.
D.200 doctors and nurses took part in the trial.
【3】What can you know from the last paragraph?
A.Therapy dogs are only interested in helping people.
B.Therapy dogs fell less pain when staying with people.
C.Therapy dogs can also get something when helping people.
D.The present research is enough to prove that therapy dogs love their job.
【4】Where does this text probably come from?
A.A health magazine
B.An animal encyclopedia
C.A biology textbook
D.A science fiction
29、COME AND EAT HERE
Wang Peng sat in his empty restaurant feeling very frustrated. It had been a very strange morning. Usually he got up early and prepared his menu of barbecued mutton kebabs, roast pork, stir-flied vegetables and fried rice. Then by lunchtime they would all be sold. By now his restaurant ought to be full of people. But not today! Why was that? What could have happened? He thought of his mutton, beef and bacon cooked in the hottest, finest oil. His cola was sugary and cold, and his ice cream was made of milk, cream and delicious fruit. "Nothing could be better," he thought. Suddenly he saw his friend Li Chang hurrying by. "Hello, Lao Li," he called. "Your usual?" But Li Chang seemed not to hear. What was the matter? Something terrible must have happened if Li Chang was not coming to eat in his restaurant as he always did.
Wang Peng followed Li Chang into a new small restaurant. He saw a sign in the window.
Tired of all that fat? Want to lose weight?
Come inside Yong Hui’s slimming restaurant.
Only slimming foods served here.
Make yourself thin again!
Curiosity drove Wang Peng inside. It was full of people. The hostess, a very thin lady, came forward. "Welcome," she said. "My name is Yong Hui. I'll help you lose weight and be fit in two weeks if you eat here every day." Then she gave a menu to Wang Peng. There were few choices of food and drink on it: just rice, raw vegetables served in vinegar, fruit and water. Wang Peng was amazed at this and especially at the prices. It cost more than a good meal in his restaurant! He could not believe his eyes. He threw down the menu and hurried outside. On his way home he thought about his own menu. Did it make people fat? Perhaps he should go to the library and find out. He could not have Yong Hui getting away with telling people lies! He had better do some research!
At the library Wang Peng was surprised to find that his restaurant served far too much fat and Yong Hui’s far too little. Even though her customers might get thin after eating Yong Hui’s food, they were not eating enough energy-giving food to keep them fit. They would become tired very quickly. Wang Peng felt more hopeful as he drove back home. Perhaps with a discount and a new sign he could win his customers back. So he wrote:
Want to feel fit and energetic?
Come and eat here! Discounts today!
Our food gives you energy all day!
