Whether it be a person, an animal, or even an insect, a mother's instincts(本能) are never wrong. This idea rings true for a mother cat who acted fast and sought out help when her kittens were in trouble. This mother cat's quick thinking may have just saved her babies.
In the urban district of Izmir in western Turkey, a cat walked into a regular hospital holding a kitten in her mouth. As the mother cat moved through the hospital, people were surprised to see such a sight, but let her pass. The mother cat asked for help, crying for a long time. She was familiar to the hospital staff, who had been leaving her food and water outside, but they were unaware that she had given birth to kittens.
The mother cat was concerned for her young because they weren't able to open their eyes.After the doctors looked at the kittens, they noticed that they were suffering from eye infections.One of the doctors recalls,“We consulted with vets(兽医) and gave medicine as described. When the kittens opened their eyes a short time later, we were excited.”Later, they were sent to an animal hospital for further care. The cats are now up for adoption and will hopefully find loving forever homes.
When it comes to mother cats and kittens, kittens completely depend on mothers for the first few months of their lives. Because they are blind and almost deaf until about two or three weeks old,the mother cat must protect them from any threat or danger. Without the mother cat's help, the kittens may not make it to adulthood.
As shown by the mother cat in Turkey, a mother's love and protection knows no bounds.Whether the mom is a human or a cat, mothers will always look out for their babies and make sure they are safe and healthy.

British chip maker Walkers is being flooded with mail deliveries of its own packaging. An online petition(请愿) with more than 312,000 signatures so far encourages those who signed to mail their empty chip plastic bags to Walkers as an act of protest against the bags' non-recyclable design.
As petition organizer Geraint Ashcroft explained, the majority of chip packets, made from plastic coated with metal, are not recyclable and have been found fully undamaged up to 33 years after consumption. The UK alone consumes 6 billion bags of chips a year, and Walkers turns out 11million bags daily. Ashcroft wrote,“At today’s consumption rate in 33 years’time, there will be 200billion packets either se nt to landfill or polluting our oceans. Many will be eaten by fish or birds,leading to a slow death.”
Mailing the bags to Walkers is a way to hold the company accountable for its packaging and to pressure it to come up with a better design. But it is controversial. Because the Royal Mail postal service isn't happy about the sudden in flow of packages, asking people calm down to help with ease of delivery. Critics on Twitter also question the logic of buying a product in order to protest against its producer and suggest that giving up chips altogether would improve one's health as well as the environment.
Walkers issued a statement on Wednesday, saying it will make its packaging plastic-free by2025.“We have received some returned packets and recognized the efforts being made to bring the issue of packaging waste to our attention. The returned packets will be used in our research as we work towards our commitment of improving the recyclability of our packaging.”
28. Why do people mail their empty chip bags to Walkers
A. To oppose Walkers'plastic packaging.
B. To exchange them for some new chips.
C. To make Walkers use them once more.
D. To appeal to people for not using the bags.

29. What does the second paragraph mainly show
A. The production of plastic bags.
B. The cause of animals' death.
C. The potential harm of chip bags.
D. The opinion of Geraint Ashcroft.
30. What is the underlined word“accountable”in paragraph 3 probably mean
A. Explainable B. Responsible C. Significant D. Anxious
31. How does Walkers react to the campaign
A. Doubtfully B. Indifferently C. Positively D. Cautiously
D
A teenager needs to have a sense of independence in their life to feel secure(安全的). To som teenagers independence means a lot to them, and I think that some parents don't allow the teenagers enough independence.
Independence has something to do with freedom. Some kids are not allowed to go anywher alone, and the only thing their schedule includes is going to school, coming home, going to sleep and repeating the process the next day. Parents tend to be afraid that their kids can get hurt if the go outside into the world. But if parents control their kids too much, they may never learn to live o their own. The best way for a teenager to learn lesson is through experience. I think it is beneficia for teenagers to have freedom.
Teenagers' lack of freedom can also stop them from having good friendship at school. Som might say this is a good thing, because it helps them focus more on their school work. I argue tha this can only discourage them not to do their school work. Some parents do not allow their childre:to be around their friends outside the school, thinking that this will get them into trouble. But I don'think so. Instead, isn't this a good reason for parents to get their children a cellphone Cellphone allow teenagers to stay in touch with their parents, and communicate with friends.
Privacy is another issue between parents and their teenagers. Teenagers tend to enjoy relaxation by themselves in their own room. This also gives them a sense of independence. It often annoys teenagers when their parents enter their room when they are not home. I know that my mon always goes in my room when I'm not home, and this has brought me to the point where I have asked many times to get a lock on my door.
32. What is the main idea of the second paragraph
A. Kids have a dull routine every day B. Some parents allow their kids no freedom.
C. Kids know how to live independently. D. It benefits teenagers to have freedom.
33. In the opinion of the author, .
A. it is unnecessary for a kid to have a cellphone
B. kids should focus on the schoolwork
C. parents should make it easy for kids to communicate with their friends
D. good friendships between kids harm their schoolwork

Many students want to know the best ways to improve their learning. 36
Focus
One of the best ways to organize your study session is to use the Pomodor o Technique. 37The idea is to use a timer(计时器). For example, you set the timer for 20 minutes, and focus only on your studies during that time. You cannot check email, or do anything aside from your task. When the timer goes off, you can reward yourself by listening to some music or having a drink of tea.
Test yourself
When you are studying, you should test yourself often. 38 Yo u can also find all kinds of online tests for many subjects.
Mixing
39 For example, while studying maths, you could mix multiplication(乘法) and division(除法) problems. It may be better for long-term learning.
Teaching
Teaching is also a powerful way to learn. Researchers compared different groups of students.Some did not expect to have to teach information, while others did. When they actually teach a lesson, they develop a deeper understanding of the material.
In a word, you can create your own plan based on what you need to learn. You might organize your study periods with the Pomodor o technique. Then, you can test yourself and mix different topics. There are many choices. 40
A. Here are a few useful methods.
B. In other words, they only study one topic at a time.
C. This method is a technique that means you mix different topics.
D. All of these methods can be put together to make a powerful study plan.
E. It is a powerful, but simple method that helps people focus on a task.
F. When you focus and do tasks that are at the right difficulty level, your brain will become tired.
G. If you are using a textbook, then you can do practice questions from the end of each chapter to test yourself.

Long ago, there was a big apple tree. A little boy loved to come and play around it every day.He climbed to the top of the tree, ate the apples, and took a nap under the shadow.... He loved the tree and the tree also enjoyed playing with him.
As time went by, the little boy grew up and he no longer played around the tree. One day, the boy came back to the tree, looking sad.“Come and play with me,”the tree asked the boy gently.“Iam no longer a kid;I won't play around trees anymore,”the boy replied,“I want toys. I need money to buy them.”
“Sorry, but I don't have money. However, you can pick all my apples and sell them. Then, you will have money.”The boy was so excited that he picked all the apples on the tree and left happily.The boy didn't come back after that. The tree was upset.
One day, the boy returned and the tree was so joyful.“Come and play with me,”the tree said.“I don't have time to play. I have to work for my family. We need a house for shelter. Can you help me ”“Sorry,I don't have a house. But you can cut off my branches(树枝) to build your house.”So the boy cut all the branches of the tree and left with delight.
The tree was glad to see him happy but the boy didn't appear since then. The tree was again lonely and sad.
One hot summer day, the boy returned and the tree was delighted.“Come and play with me!”the tree requested.
“I am sad and becoming old. I want to go sailing to relax myself. Can you give me a boat ”“Use my trunk(树干) to build the boat. You can sail and be happy.”So the boy cut the tree trunk to make a boat. He went sailing and did not show up for a long time.
Paragraph 1:
Many years later, the boy finally returned.
Paragraph 2:
The apple tree is our mother.
