26、I am touched by the story about a man and a cat. I’m a cat lover. I had many cats who accompanied me in my life and have two cats at present. Sometimes cats can be extremely sensitive, and they actually understand everything you do even sometimes your emotion can be effective to them. They can be very comforting when you feel sad or stressed. They are good listeners and perfect companions.
The book tells an uncommon friendship with the cat, which has led to the former homeless north London street performer finding a new way of life.
When James Bowen found an injured abandoned cat in the hallway of his apartment building, he had no idea about how his life would be changed. James was living hand to mouth on the street of London, and the last thing he needed was a pet. Yet Bowen couldn’t resist helping the strikingly intelligent but very sick cat, whom he quickly named Bob. He carefully nursed Bob back to health and then freed the cat, thinking he would never see it again.
Obviously, Bob had its own ideas.
Soon the two were good friends and enjoyed their colorful, funny life. Sometimes, they took adventures together. All these experiences would change both of them, slowly healing each other’s scars made by their troubled past.
It’s not very well written or deeply philosophical, it’s just a story about a sweet cat and a wonderful man, and that’s the best thing. You are likely to believe in the influence of animals after reading it. They can heal, teach, and push us to be better.
This is a reader-friendly English novel, which won’t terrify you with complex structures or uncommon vocabulary. When you read it, you will lose yourselves in this warm story. You can even feel the London street where they walk through everyday and hear the music of coins dropping into James’ guitar case while he’s performing with s mart Bob sitting beside him.

27、The cost of living in countries like the U.S, Britain, Australia or France has skyrocketed in recent years. However, if you’re willing to leave your country and explore life in other areas, there are many countries boasting an extremely cheap and low cost of living. Check out the following countries when planning your next move.
Ecuador
Ecuador is similar to the United States in many ways, and as a result has become a popular American getaway. They even use the U. S. Dollar for their currency. In this country, it’s cheaper to eat out every day than cook for yourself on a budget in the U. S. You can even buy a building for around $50,000 and hire someone to look after it while you’re away.
Mexico
Although the country is known for its poverty ridden streets, there are many wealthier areas that provide every facility you might need. You can live off a mere $700 to $800 a month in Mexico, and this includes rent for a nice place, facilities, food, and any sightseeing.
Argentina
Argentina has been a popular tourist destination for many years. It has great restaurants, a rich history, and many places to explore. Not to mention, it’s not very expensive to live here. A decent sized home can cost around $139,000, which is relatively cheap in relation to homes in the United States.
Vietnam

29、 In a faraway area in northern Mexico, there lives a native Indian group called the Tarahumaras (塔拉乌马拉族). Besides owning some cooking tools and farming equipment, the Tarahumaras exist much as they did before the Spanish arrived in the 1600s. They live in caves or in small houses made of stone and wood, and they eat what little they can grow on the dry land.
Ten years ago, linguist (语言学家) James Copeland entered the world of the Tarahumaras to study their language and culture. Since then, he has been visiting the Tarahumaras three or four times a year. Tarahumara is not a written language, so part of Copeland's project was to learn to speak Tarahumara so that he could deal directly with the people. “There are no language police,” Copeland says. “Children are seldom corrected by their parents. They learn by observation of speech in conversations and by imitation.”
Copeland learned the language through his frequent exposure to it and by analyzing the grammar. His linguistic skills and mastery of German, Spanish, French, and Russian, plus a partial knowledge of some twenty other languages, also helped. Drawing on his research, Copeland plans to produce a Tarahumara grammar book in English and perhaps one in Spanish.
The idea to study the Tarahumaras came to Copeland in 1984 when he discovered that very little research had been done on their language. He got in touch with a Tarahumara Indian called Lornezo Gonzalez through a social worker who worked with the Tarahumaras in the border town of Juarez, Mexico. At first, Gonzalez was very reluctant to cooperate. He told Copeland that no amount of money could buy his language. But after Copeland explained to him what he intended to do with his research and how it would benefit the Tarahumaras, Gonzalez agreed to help and took Copeland to his village. “Over a period of a year our relationship became closer and warmer,” says Copeland. “Thanks to him, the Tarahumaras started trusting us and understood what we were doing.”
【1】What can we learn about the Tarahumaras?
A.They have a strict education system.
B.They live a very simple and hard life.
C.They arrived in Mexico with the Spanish.
D.They are good at agriculture and architecture.
【2】According to Copeland, learning Tarahumara _____.
A.is no easy task B.is a waste of time
C.is very interesting D.is useful for learning Spanish
【3】Before Copeland learned Tarahumara, he had _____.

【4】The underlined word “reluctant” in the last paragraph probably means _____.
