26、If you’ve ever driven a car on an icy road in wintertime, you know that it can be very dangerous. Driving on an icy road is much more dangerous than driving on a dry road.【1】

When you drive a car on an icy road where there is less friction (摩擦力), it’s more difficult to keep control of the car. So, it’s important to know how to stop the car from going out of control. Many drivers will try to stop the car by stepping down hard on the brakes (刹车). This is a bad thing to do because stopping the wheels quickly will make the car slide even further and faster.【2】.

【3】If you take your foot off the gas pedal (油门), the car will slow down immediately, but it won’t add power to the direction of the slide.

Next, touch the brakes very lightly and then let go. Touch the brakes again lightly and then let go.【4】.This method of slowing down will allow you to slow the car down without adding power to the slide.

Third, while you’re pumping the brakes gently, turn the steering wheel (方向盘) in the same direction as the slide.【5】.By doing this, you’ll make the car straight again. You have to keep turning the wheel gently until the car becomes straight, or parallel to the road.

By following these three steps, you should be able to keep control of your car if it should happen to slide.

A．First, lift your foot from the gas pedal

B．The reason is that there is less friction on an icy road

C．Here’s the best way to handle the car if it starts to slide

D．This repeated action is called “pumping the brake slightly”

E．So obviously, stepping down on the brakes is a bad thing to do

F．The engine of the car gives power to the back wheels of the car

G．For example, if the back of the car slides right, turn the steering wheel right

27、August 21st, 2020 was a day of excitement for panda lovers. Mei Xiang, a 22-year-old panda, gave birth to a baby at American Smithsonian’s National Zoo. It is the seventh baby panda since she came to the country in 2000. Three of her babies have survived to adulthood. Mei Xiang is the oldest panda in the U.S. and the second-oldest recorded in the world to give birth, which surprised professionals.

“Pandas are an international symbol of endangered wildlife and hope,” said Steve Monfort, the zoo’s director, “and we are excited to offer the world a much-needed moment of joy.” As pandas are endangered animals, the birth of every panda holds special meaning.

“This is part of our bigger program, where it’s not just about keeping panda babies in zoos and educating people about pandas, but it’s about the wild protection work we do,” added Brandie Smith, the zoo’s deputy director. According to Smith, the birth suggests people-to-people cooperation and wildlife protection between the countries have been going well. “Our partners in China were the first we contacted. They have much experience since there are so many pandas born in China.” Smith said.

As home to pandas, China spares no effort to protect pandas. Efforts have included protecting their living environment, introducing pandas to the wild and issuing laws to punish hunters. The Chinese government also set up iPanda as a website streaming (直播) pandas’ lives to a global audience.

For years, the animal has never failed in its duty as China’s ambassador (大使) of friendship and won hearts of fans worldwide. Since 2008, the movie series Kung Fu Panda has become popular globally, strengthening China’s international image, as Kung Fu Panda represents Chinese wisdom and courage. Bing Dwen Dwen, the cheerful official mascot (吉祥物) for the 2022 Beijing Olympic Winter Games, connected and brought joy to people around the world.

29、In Song of the Whale, an installation at the Yukon Arts Centre, Joyce Majiski shared the story of a one-year old humpback whale(座头鯨) who died after she was caught in a fishery rope.

In the centre of the show is an eight-metre-long model of the baby whale’s skeleton(骨架), each bone carved(雕刻) from Styrofoam(聚苯乙烯泡塑料) collected from the ocean and beaches.

“Water is the one thing that connects us all --–we’re a planet of water---and we have a lot of disrespect for it.”

“There are a lot of things that we have done to contribute to the death of these creatures. Again, we need to pay attention to what we’re doing. If we thought about how connected we are as creatures on this planet, maybe we’d do things a little differently,” Majiski said.

Speaking of starting to set up the project, she describes it as “despairing.” Eventually, the search for an intact(完无缺的) whale skeleton that would allow the study of individual bones led her to Salt Spring Island. There, Majiski studied each bone of the young humpback whale, first in sketch (素描) form and then by carving models from collected Styrofoam.

The majority of the Styrofoam came from the Ocean Legacy Foundation, a non-profit that does ocean cleanups. The organisation says over 6.5 million tons of rubbish enter the world’s ocean each year. When degrading (降解) in the ocean, Styrofoam breaks down into small particles that can be eaten by ocean animals.

It is also messy material to work with as an artist.

"The Styrofoam looks really awful. It’s all big pieces that are black and crumbly(易碎的). They’ve been floating around in the ocean and degrading and washed up on shore.

“It’s really dirty and crumbly and I didn’t want to breathe any in as I carved. I mean, I wore a mask all the time and coveralls and gloves. I was cleaning myself and everything every hour or so depending on how much I was carving,” said Maiiski.

In total, Majiski carved 177 pieces.

【1】What is Majiski’s purpose in holding the show?

A．To get people to think about ocean pollution.

B．To show the artistic attraction of carving.

C．To call on people to reduce fish catches.

D．To encourage the recycling of waste.

【2】Why did Majiski go to Salt Spring Island?

A．To spend a holiday.

B．To study where whales are found.

C．To look for a suitable whale skeleton.

D．To raise money for animal protection.

【3】What does the underlined word "It" in paragraph 7 refer to?

A．Styrofoam.

B．The baby whale.

C．Working with plastics.

D．Carving the whale s skeleton.

【4】How can Majiski's carving work be described?

A．It was quick and smooth.

B．It was slow but interesting.

C．It was boring and depressing.

D．It was difficult but meaningful.
