26、Dear Linda，

I have been in England three months now. I hope you don’t think I’ve forgotten you. There have been so many places to see and so many things to do that I’ve not had much time for writing letters.

I shall soon be starting my studies at King’s College. So far I’ve been learning about England and British ways of living. I won’t tell you about London. There are plenty of books you can read and plenty of pictures you can look at. I’m sure you’ll be more interested to know what I think about the life here.

I find some of the customs(风俗) new and interesting. People here do not shake hands as much as we do in Europe. During the first few weeks I was often surprised because people did not put out their hands when I met them. Men raise their hats to women but not to each other.

Yours

Alice

27、I must have always known reading was very important because the first memories I have as a child deal with books. There was not one night that I don’t remember mom reading me a storybook by my bedside. I was extremely inspired by the wonderful way the words sounded.

I always wanted to know what my mom was reading. Hearing mom say, “I can’t believe what’s printed in the newspaper this morning,” made me want to grab it out of her hands and read it myself. I wanted to be like my mom and know all of the things she knew. So I carried around a book, and each night, just to be like her, I would pretend to be reading.

This is how everyone learned to read. We would start off with sentences, then paragraphs, and then stories. It seemed an unending journey, but even as a six-year-old girl I realized that knowing how to read could open many doors. When mom said, “The C-A-N-D-Y is hidden on the top shelf,” I knew where the candy was. My progress in reading raised my curiosity, and I wanted to know everything. I often found myself telling my mom to drive more slowly, so that I could read all of the road signs we passed.

Most of my reading through primary, middle and high school was factual reading. I read for knowledge, and to make A’s on my tests. Sometimes, I would read a novel that was assigned, but I didn’t enjoy this type of reading. I liked facts, things that are concrete. I thought anything abstract left too much room for argument.

Now that I’m growing and the world I once knew as being so simple is becoming more complex, I find myself needing a way to escape. By opening a novel, I can leave behind my burdens and enter into a wonderful and mysterious world where I am now a new character. In these worlds I can become anyone. I don’t have to write down what happened or what technique the author was using when he or she wrote this. I just read to relax.

We’re taught to read because it’s necessary for much of human understanding. Reading is an important part of my life. Reading satisfies my desire to keep learning. And I’ve found that the possibilities that lie within books are limitless.

【2】According to Paragraph 3, the author’s reading of road signs shows___________.

A．her own way to find herself

B．her eagerness to develop her reading ability

C．her growing desire to know the world around her

D．her effort to remind mom to obey traffic rules

【3】The author takes novel reading as a way to___________.

A．explore a mysterious land

B．develop an interest in learning

C．get away from a confusing world

D．learn about the adult world

【4】What could be the best title for the passage？

A．The Pleasure of Reading

B．Growing Up with Reading

C．The Magic of Reading

D．Reading Makes a Full Man

28、Christian Larsen asked his mother, Lindsay, to throw him a ninth birthday party so he could invite all of his friends. Finally, she gave in, sending out invitations— and waiting. But only one person responded. Christian, who attends Hillsdale Elementary in Meridian, Idaho, has autism (自闭症).

On May 31, Lindsay posted on Facebook about not having responses, and her friend Blythe Ben-David stepped in to make a birthday miracle (奇迹) happen.

Ben-David wanted to attend the party, but she lives in South Texas, far from the Larsen family. So she reached out to Dan Holtry, a family friend and the football coach at Nampa High School in Idaho.

“He has always been a caring man with a big heart,” Ben-David said. “I knew if anyone could help it would be Dan.” When Ben-David asked Holtry whether he could help, he agreed and went“above and beyond.”

“My players were also willing to celebrate with Christian,” Holtry said. “Within seconds of a sent text, they were 100% in.”

When Christian’s party was held on June 4, a few classmates, some children with their parents from the neighborhood and some family friends showed up. Christian was running around and having a good time when the surprise guests arrived. Holtry and his players showed up.

“It was amazing to see how they all came together,” Lindsay wrote in an email. “Christian often plays alone, but with the players there helping organize games, he became part of the action that day. He was playing alongside his peers (同龄人), as well as the football players.”

Holtry and his players stayed until the very end, playing with the children and singing happy birthday.

“He talked about the party for days,” Lindsay said. “He didn’t question why the players were there, he just loved it. He has said many times that it was the best birthday ever!”

29、   The 19th-century American writer Henry David Thoreau filled his books with great ideas about human life and its need for nature. Those findings have probably never been more important than they are today.

David Strayer, a professor of psychology at the University of Utah, found that on average, Americans spend about 10 hours a day in front of computers or other screens and less than 30 minutes a day outdoors. He said that using these screens—answering emails & reading the news—puts a lot of pressure on the front part of the brain, which is very important for critical (批判性的）thinking and decision-making. So, it is important to give the brain a rest.

David Strayer has studied both short-term and long-term effect of nature on the brain. He found that spending a short time in nature without technology does calm the brain and helps it to remember better. However, he found, it is the long-term contact with nature that does the most good.

He and his research team found that spending three days in nature without any technology is enough time for the brain to get relaxed to some degree. He calls this the “three-day” treatment（治疗）. He says that spending longer time in nature will help the brain to be fully recharged; improve our productivity, lower our stress levels and make us feel better.

Kate Somers，another researcher of the team, suggests that, while long walks are great, camping for several days is a better, more complete experience.

“Camping is much better than hiking. Here you get to spend more time in the fresh air rather than just moving through it.”

【1】Why is Henry David Thoreau introduced in the text?

A.To show that he is a great writer.

B.To introduce his great ideas.

C.To support the researchers' conclusions.

D.To lead in the topic of the text.

【2】Which paragraph best supports “Americans has spent too little time outdoors”?

A.Paragraph 2. B.Paragraph 3.

C.Paragraph 4. D.Paragraph 5.

【3】What does the underlined word “recharged” in paragraph 4 mean?

A.Cured. B.Impressed. C.Relaxed. D.Changed.

【4】What might work best for us according to the researchers?

A.Short-distance hiking. B.Camping in nature.

C.Weight-lifting in the gym. D.Working out at home.
