It was my first year of teaching. I was young and inexperienced, and had class after class of twenty kids just waiting for me to make a mistake.
After a particularly long night of grading papers and thinking about how many weeks I’d left until I could breathe, I had one of those mornings when I began to question my job choice. I’d become a teacher to help kids. Instead, I felt like I couldn’t even help myself anymore. It was just Mother’s Day, and as I sat at my desk surrounded by lesson plans, I wondered how I’d ever have enough energy to have children of my own.
That was when I heard a knock at my door. One of my students came in — the cool basketball-playing country boy who had accidentally broken my favorite snow globe so that I couldn’t display nice things in my classroom. He handed me a large flower that probably came from his family’s farm. He’d stuck a bird feather in it.
“I got you a Mother’s Day gift,” he said in a low voice. Most middle school and high school teachers don’t receive presents. Christmas and Teacher Appreciation Day had already come and gone without any gifts. I was so shocked that I just stared.
Made nervous by my silence, he said, “You know…since you’re like a mother to us, I thought you should get a present, too.”
I smiled and told him he was the sweetest person in the entire world, and that I just loved it. Based on his smile, I knew I’d done enough work of making him feel quite proud of himself. What made that twelve-year-old bring me a homemade present I’ll never know. Once he left the room, I locked the door. And I cried. That moment helped me get through the rest of the school years.
24. What did the author think of her job as a teacher at the beginning
A. Interesting. B. Tiring. C. Rewarding. D. Demanding.
25. How did the boy feel when he gave his teacher the present
A. Excited. B. Shocked. C. Unwilling. D. Shy.
26. How did the author react when she was given the flower
A. She was moved to tears.
B. She didn’t accept the present.
C. She was too surprised to say anything.
D. She stared at the boy in puzzlement.
27. Which of the following encourages the author to continue teaching
A. The sincere love from students.
B. Her positive attitude to life.
C. Her strong interest in teaching.
D. The achievements in her work.
C
Typically, a person sitting in the driver’s seat of a car opens the door with the hand closest to it. It makes sense since doors are designed to be opened that way. Pull the handle(把手) and immediately the door is open. But if you happen to do that at the wrong time, you may create an obstacle(阻碍) for a passing cyclist without knowing it. Then the cyclist will be sent falling off the bike, and the car door is likely to be damaged by the fast-moving bicycle.
The car door design and long-time habits have made the process instinctual but clearly the solution is for the person getting out of the vehicle to check for traffic. Luckily, there’s a simple way to solve the problem: the Dutch reach. In other words, instead of using your left hand, reach for the door latch(门锁) with your right hand. This will force you to turn your body and look into your side view mirror to see whether any car or bike is coming.
“It’s just what Dutch people do,” said Fred Wegman, the former managing director of the National Institute for Road Safety Research in the Netherlands. “All the Dutch are taught it. It’s part of regular driver education.”
The technique dates back about 50 or 60 years, and it was very popular between the 1960s and the 1980s. But it didn’t really become known as the Dutch reach until American physician named Michael Charney started the Dutch Reach Project in 2016 in an effort to popularize the practice in the United States. According to The Times, he was motivated by the death of a 27-year-old who rode into an open car door and died just five blocks from his home in Cambridge, Massachusetts.
Charney’s efforts may be paying off. Both Massachusetts and Illinois now include the Dutch reach in their drivers’ manuals(手册).
28. What is the first paragraph intended to show
A. The poor design of the car door and handle.
B. A common conflict between cars and bicycles.
C. A main cause of traffic accidents related to cyclists.
D. Possible risks connected with opening the car door.
29. What does the underlined word “instinctual” in Paragraph 2 mean
A. Difficult B. Possible C. Natural D. Dangerous
30. How does the Dutch reach help to reduce traffic accidents
A. By making the person open the car door more easily.
B. By forcing the person to check for approaching traffic.
C. By reminding the person of the traffic lights frequently.
D. By helping the person see the side view mirror more clearly.
31. What made Charney introduce the Dutch reach into America
A. Its popularity among Dutch people.
B. Its appearance in drivers’ manuals.
C. A project started in the year 2016.
D. The death caused by a traffic accident.
D
Dog owners walked about 23 minutes longer each day than non-dog owners. In a new study, dog owners took 2,760 additional steps — compared to people who didn’t have a dog at home. But here’s the real good news: That extra exercise was done at a moderate(适度的) pace, which means it could help adults meet their recommended weekly totals for physical activity.
The research, published in BMC Public Health, focused on adults 65 and older, who tend to be less active than younger people. The study included 43 dog owners and 43 non-dog owners, all of whom were monitored continuously for three week-long periods. When they compared the two groups, the researchers found that dog ownership was associated with a large, potentially health-improving effect.
Dog owners walked about 23 minutes longer each day than non-dog owners, 119 minutes versus 96 minutes on average. They also took an additional 2,760 steps, and had eight fewer continuous periods of sitting down. Most of that extra walking was done at moderate pace, defined as 100 or more steps a minute. Dog owners walked at this pace for 32 minutes a day, versus just 11 minutes a day for non-dog owners.
The World Health Organization (WHO) recommends that adults get at least 150 minutes of physical activity a week. This increased walking time alone could just about satisfy that requirement, say the researchers — so it makes total sense that 87 percent of dog owners in the study met these guidelines, versus just 47 percent of non-dog owners.
Co-author Nancy Gee says that pet ownership may help older adults get more activity or maintain their current activity level for a longer period of time. “This could improve their chances of a better quality of life, improved or maintained cognition(认知), and perhaps, even overall longevity (寿命), ” she said.
Here at Health, we’ll add that caring for pets has been shown to have plenty of other physical and mental health benefits, as well. As animal lovers ourselves, we’re happy to add one more to the list.
32. What can we learn about the research
A. It was targeted on old people.
B. It was sponsored by the WHO.
C. It had an undesirable effect on dog owners.
D. It took the mental health of dog owners into consideration.
33. What does the author intend to do in Paragraph 3
A. To present the results of the research.
B. To show the guidelines of the research.
C. To describe the process of doing the research.
D. To explain the reasons for conducting the research.
34. What does Nancy Gee think of owning a dog
A. It is too expensive.
B. It is time-consuming.
C. It enables older adults to live a healthy life.
D. It helps young adults to keep a healthy routine.
35. What is the best title for the text
A. Non-pet owners enjoy more pleasure
B. Animal lovers are more generous
C. Young people walk less today
D. Dog owners walk way more

Leading health experts from the CDC and the WHO have made it clear that reducing the effects of coronavirus(新冠病毒) means staying home as long as possible. 36 They give some ideas as follows:
Don’t let the news control your rest.
The coronavirus situation seems to change by the hour, resulting in a number of people feeling necessary to constantly check their phones for news. That can not only be stressful at any time, but also it can affect your ability to relax if you surf news before going to sleep. Dr. Rosmarin says, “It’s not a good time to watch the news.” 37
Don’t argue with people who seem unconcerned about the crisis.
You might face pressure from friends or family to attend gatherings when you aren’t comfortable being in groups. You may be upset because they aren’t following the instructions: staying at home. 38 So you’d better avoid the meaningless argument.
39
Do laundry on Sundays Keep doing it on Sunday. Not going to work Get dressed anyway. Maintaining a regular routine will go a long way toward helping you avoid feelings of disorganization.
Don’t hesitate to seek help if you need it.
40 For people already struggling with anxiety, obsessive compulsive disorder, or depression, fears over coronavirus can be especially disruptive. Always seek professional help if you feel overwhelmed.
A. Arguing about it isn’t productive.
B. Don’t ignore your regular routine.
C. You cannot solve the mental problems all by yourself.
D. Don’t forget to remind your family to respect your boundary.
E. What can you do to make your staying home better than before
F. But how to deal with the mental tension, such as being upset and nervous
G. Sleep is important to a healthy system, and giving yourself an opportunity to relax is important.

One morning, my family and I woke up and went to eat breakfast —— until we heard barking and scratching at the door. When my mom opened the door, we saw a puppy (小狗) We looked around to see if we saw its owner, but there was no one. We took it inside and fed it.
Regardless of how badly I wanted to keep the puppy, we decided to look for the owner. We looked all day, but we failed. We talked about whether we should keep looking or if we should look the next day. We all agreed to look for its owner the next day.
So, the next day my family and I looked for the dog's owner. It was so hard. We were looking for flyers(传单)that involved the puppy, but no luck. We wouldn't have quit because it's a puppy.
"We won't stop looking," my mom and dad said. We were going to take care of the puppy until we found its owner.
When we woke up in the morning, we went to a pet shop to buy the puppy some dog food. After that we went back home to feed the puppy the dog food that we had just bought. After we fed the puppy, we gave it a nice bath. It was so dirty that the fur was black and sticky, but after we gave it a bath, it turned white. And I noticed there was a collar (狗项圈) on it, which said "Coby". After we gave it a bath, we went to look for the puppy's owner, but my mom stayed at home, and it was only my dad and me this time.
We continued looking more and more until we found flyers. We looked at it. It said: "Lost Dog: Please Help if Found." Then we looked at the picture and it looked exactly like Coby. We were all happy we found a flyer that was for Cody

Recently, I’ve noticed that many of my classmates have some bad habits. Some of them often eat junk food to save time, which obviously could do harm to their stomachs. And what’s more, junk food can’t provide enough nutrition for their body. Some of them stay in the classroom for too long and are unwilling to spend time on physical exercise. As is known to us all, lack of exercise could weaken our body.
Accordingly, I think we should have meals punctually and choose healthy and fresh foods. Besides, we should do some exercise occasionally to build up a stronger body. By doing these, we can have better health and thus study more efficiently.(102 words)
Finally I hope everyone can pay more attention to health and develop better habits.

There was a phone number on the flyer. My dad called it and someone answered, it was a lady. My dad asked whether she was the one who put out the flyers. She said " Yes!" with excitement and told us Coby, who was very dear to her, had been gone days before. Then we told her that we had her puppy and we would take it to her. She told us her address at once; then we went to it.
We found the lady's house, and then we knocked on the door. A lady opened the door, and when she saw the puppy, she screamed with joy. We handed her the puppy, feeling proud. She wanted to give us a reward for taking care of her puppy for her, but we said it was OK because we were really happy to help. So we went home tired but content, telling my mom the whole thing. My family became friends with the lady, and we were all happy.
