26、When I was only 3 years old, my mother taught me to memorize and recite poems. She was my first teacher of the arts, and my father was the first to appreciate my performance. Even at that young age, I had a simple understanding of how art and culture affect us as human beings and how we can connect to each other through the arts, which shapes my life to this day.
When I was growing up, my parents supported my interest in taking acting classes and doing community theater. Their faith in me and the professional training I was getting from my theater teachers gave me a sense of purpose and a sense of self-confidence. I learned what artistic achievement actually was and what hard work the business was. Although many people see the rosy picture to our business, I was really learning what it would require for me to become a professional.
I became an actress, but arts education isn’t just about preparing our young people for a job in the arts. I recently talked to some of the kids attending theater education. Some of them want to work in theater, and some don’t. They are learning not only theater skills, but also about the world around them. By studying the arts, these students are open to worlds and lives that they might not have any other way of knowing about or any other way to connect with in their lives the way they are right now.
These young people are our future. We are passing the torch to them. And I think that’s one of the most important reasons why we need to foster (培养) the arts.
【1】When the writer was 3 years old, she ________ .
A.learned many kinds of arts

A.Discipline and hard work are not included in arts education.

28、Researchers found brushing your teeth three or more times per day is linked with lower risk of heart failure and atrial fibrillation (心室颤动) —a heart condition that causes an irregular and often abnormally fast heart rate.
One possible theory behind the discovery is that frequent tooth brushing reduces bacteria living in the pocket between the teeth and gums, preventing them from entering the bloodstream. Existing studies show poor oral hygiene (口腔卫生) leads to bacteria in the blood, causing inflammation (炎症) in the body. Inflammation increases the risks of irregular heartbeat and heart failure, where the heart’s ability to pump blood or relax and fill with blood is weakened.
In their new research, scientists in South Korea examined the connection between oral hygiene and happening of these two conditions in a series of studies of more than 161, 000 participants aged between 40 and 79.
Participants underwent a routine medical examination between 2015 and 2016 and information was collected on height, weight, laboratory tests, illnesses, lifestyle, oral health, and oral hygiene behaviors. During a follow-up of ten and a half years on average, three percent of participants developed atrial fibrillation and around five percent developed heart failure.
The lead investigator of the new study is Tae-Jin Song, a doctor and professor at Mokdong Hospital at Ewha Woman’s University in Seoul, South Korea. He said, “We studied a large group over a long period, which adds strength to our findings.” But he also noted that the analysis was limited to one country and as an observational study it does not prove causation (因果关系).
An accompanying editorial states: “It is certainly too early to recommend tooth brushing for the prevention of atrial fibrillation and congestive (充血的) heart failure. While the role of inflammation in the happening of heart and blood vessels’ disease is becoming more and more evident, further studies are needed to explain strategies of public health importance.”
【1】Which is true about frequent tooth brushing?
A.It promotes the heart beat faster.
B.It rids the bloodstream of bacteria.
C.It reduces the risk of heart failure.
D.It weakens the heart’s ability to pump blood.
【2】What does the underlined part “these two conditions” in paragraph 3 refer to?
A.Inflammation and bacteria.
B.Heart failure and atrial fibrillation.
C.Oral hygiene and occurrence of heart failure.
D.The heart’s ability to pump blood or relax.
【3】What can be inferred about the result of the research from Tae-Jin Song’s words?
A.It has its limit.
B.It’s discouraging.
C.It has its variety.
D.It’s unexpected.
【4】From which is this text probably taken?
A.A diary.
B.A travel brochure.
C.A novel.
D.A medical magazine.
29、Michael J. Fox was at the height of his career when he developed Parkinson’s disease (帕金森病) in 1991. Since then, he has been fighting the disease and has not lost his love for life.
After his diagnosis (诊断), Michael concealed his illness for several years in order not to risk his career as an actor. His diagnosis didn’t become public until 1999. To this day, he has done his best not to be influenced by his illness as much as possible and has worked both in front of the camera and as a voice actor.
Michael said in an interview with the American magazine Haute Living in 2016: “I realize now that I can play anybody, as long as they have Parkinson’s.” Like the role of “Louis Canning” in The Good Wife, which he played from 2010 to 2016. For his role of the lawyer (律师), who suffers from the side effects of medication(药物) to treat Parkinson’s, he was nominated (提名) five times for an Emmy.
Michael has shown the doctors who said that he would not be able to work ten years after the diagnosis that this is not the case. He has found the right way to deal with Parkinson’s disease for him: Humor.
In an interview in March 2017, he joked about moments in his everyday life where he is controlled by his illness. “The thing that makes it funny to me is when I think about someone else watching all this and thinking, Poor Michael can’t even get the coffee — it’s so sad!”, explains the 59-year-old.
Since his diagnosis became public, Michael has devoted himself to Parkinson’s research. In 2000, he founded the Michael Foundation for Parkinson’s Research to find a cure for Parkinson’s disease. By the end of 2018, 800 million US dollars had already been collected.

32、阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
In 1968, I was a student at the Sophia Hagopian High School in Beirut, Lebanon. One day, I went to the head teacher’s office and told him that my parents could not pay the tuition (学费). Although I was the top student in my class, I was sent home because of being short of money. This was a heartbreaking experience for me, as I really wanted to continue my education.
I went home and spent my day at my father’s tire-repair shop. One day, a very old man saw me in the shop and wondered why I was not in school. I told him the reason. He offered to help by calling the head teacher of the Hovaguimian-Manougian High School and asking him to accept me without tuition. The next day, I took a city bus to the school and went to the head teacher’s office. However, when I told the head teacher the reason for my visit, he shouted at me that there was no free tuition. I immediately turned around and rushed back to my home.
On the third day, one of my classmates from Sophia Hagopian High School came to inform me that the head teacher had sent him to tell me that I should come back to school and register (登记). When I arrived at school, I told the registrar that I could not pay the tuition. She said that my tuition had been fully paid. I asked the registrar who paid for my tuition so that I can thank him, I was told that the kind person wanted to remain unknown.
I went to my classroom, but kept wondering who was the person that gave me the golden opportunity to continue my education. I went back to the head teacher's office after classes and begged the registrar to tell me the name of the kind person. Finally, on the condition that I wouldn’t go and express the thanks, she told me that it was my English teacher, Olivia Balian. I promised that I would not talk to her.
