Regnante and her husband, Tingley, knew they were in trouble when they found that they had to stay at the airport on the night before Thanksgiving with a grounded plane and 30 turtles （海龟）. The two rescuers were part of a volunteer effort to save hundreds of sea tur­tles that were washed up close to death on the beaches of Massachusetts.

The couple urgently needed to find temperature-controlled accommodation for the endan­gered sea turtles. They were in the rescuer race to save the smallest sea turtles in the world? at a little over 2 feet long, and they had been found with very low temperatures. Every year, hundreds of the turtles follow warm ocean currents north from their hatching sites in the Gulf of Mexico, become trapped in the cold Atlantic and are then rescued from Cape Cod by volun­teers. who take them to wildlife centres along warmer coastlines.

Regnante is a volunteer with Turtles Fly Too, a charity that provides air transport for the stricken turtles. On Wednesday, she took off with the turtles from near Boston in a plane pilo­ted by her husband. They were bound for New Orleans but storms forced them to change course and refuel twice. Then, at Chattanooga. Tennessee, a stone damaged the propeller （螺 旋桨）.“It was just one thing after another,”  Regnante told The New York Times. just kind of wanted to say, 'Guys, it's going to be OK'."

For turtles, being out of the water and in transit for a long period was stressful. Luckily, a happy ending was delivered. Two heated trucks were sent nearby, where the turtles spent the night. On Thanksgiving morning, Regnante and Tingley drove them to a handover point in Alabama from where the turtles were taken to their new home.

“Turtles Fly Too does whatever it takes to make the mission happen." Leslie, president of the charity, said. “When challenges arise, we'll be quick to make adjustments.”

A study from 1976 tells us how and why relationships with our neighbors can be so good for us. Surprisingly to scientists at that time, results showed that connection with family members-even one's own children—had little influence on feelings of well-being or willpow­er. Meanwhile, friendships? especially those with neighbors, predicted lower levels of loneli­ness and worry, higher levels of feelings of usefulness and respect within the community.

The study suggests that acquaintance and friendship with neighbors are more effective at increasing well-being since they are based on nearness, common interests and lifestyle choices. The neighborhood relationships are also developed voluntarily. Family ties? on the other hand, are often characterized by a sense of responsibility, physical distance? and personal disharmo­ny. Later studies confirm the importance of close friendships for people over 65, highlighting the particular importance of frequent connection.

More recent studies show that neighborly support is associated with better well-being for individuals in mid — to — late life. Data about neighborly relationships and general well-being from 1,071 adults aged 40-70 from the National Survey of Midlife Development in the US was collected in 1995, and again from the same individuals in 2005.

The study found that those who had little connection with neighbors at the time of both samples, as well as those who experienced a reduction in connection with neighbors over the years, experienced downward trends in well-being, as indicated by feelings of sadness, ner­vousness. restlessness, hopelessness and worthlessness.

It is important to note here the difference between friendship and neighboring or relation­ships with neighbors. While friendships are based on common affection, neighboring, at its

core is an instrumental relationship that is catalyzed （催化）by nearness. But it doesn't have to be this way. Where neighbors are also close friends? the potential benefits are clear. While both friendship and neighboring are beneficial to well-being, they are most effective when the types of support and assistance from both coincide （同时发生）.

8. What does the 1976 study tell us?

A. The friendships between neighbors can last forever.

B. People ignore neighbors more than family members.

C. Neighbors influence people as much as their own children do.

D. Neighbors are more influential to people than family members.

9. How does the author mainly develop paragraph 2?

A. By analyzing data. B. By giving instructions.

C. By making comparisons. D. By following the order of time.

10. What determines neighborly relationships according to the text?

A. Nearness. B. Responsibility.

C. Physical distance. D. A common life goal.

11. What is the text mainly about?

A. Why neighbors always help us.

B. Why our neighbors are so important.

C. How neighborly support is available.

D. How neighborly relationships develop well.

D

Some people must carefully pay attention to everything they put in their mouths in order to control their weight. By contrast, others can eat French fries to their hearts' content and achieve the same result. How do some people manage never to gain weight?

"Perception, one of the most important factors, has nothing to do with the body type be­cause our personal feeling is always wrong. We often feel that some people who eat more don't put on weight. Actually? those who appear to eat whatever they like without gaining weight aren't eating more than the rest of us," said professor Kathleen Melanson. "For example, your friend who eats ice cream on a daily basis might eat less at another meal- or snack less throughout the rest of the day.”

“Physical activity can also make a difference, but it doesn't have to be a gym workout. There's little evidence to suggest that—without exercise-some people were born to burn sig­nificantly more calories than others," said Dr Ines Barroso, a researcher at the University of Cambridge. But there may be physical differences that allow some people to naturally control the number of calories they consume without exercising much self-regulation.

A lot of nervous system signals and hormones （激素）that circulate in our blood interact to tell us when we're hungry or full. This is called the appetite regulatory system, and it may be more sensitive in some people than others, Melanson said. One important hormone involved

m this system is leptin （瘦素）.It helps regulate how much food we want to eat over longer periods of time, not just for our next meal. So a person with a more sensitive system might go back for seconds and thirds at a party, then feel full for the next few days and eat less.

Genetics can also play a role in a person's tendency to gain or lose weight. Researchers have identified over 250 different regions of DNA that are associated with obesity, according to a 2019 study published in PLOS Genetics.

12. What does the underlined word “Perception" in paragraph 2 probably mean?

A. Connection. B. Sense. C. Defense. D. Reduction.

13. What do we know about leptin?

A. It makes people usually feel hungry.

B. It helps people have a better appetite.

C. It helps people regulate their food intake.

D. It makes people more sensitive to the flavour of food.

14. What do the findings of the 2019 study show?

A. Weight problems can be avoided.

B. Losing weight is equally difficult for everyone.

C. Some people may be born to have weight problems.

D. Genes can be completely changed to avoid weight problems.

15. What is the author's main purpose in writing the text?

A. To share some ideas about how to lose weight.

B. To explain why some people never gain weight.

C. To advise people to control their daily diet strictly.

D. To call for people to pay attention to healthy eating.

根据短文内容.从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余

选项。

Suppose you are hiking with friends in the mountains on a hot summer day. and you come to a clean stream. The water in the stream looks so inviting, and you suddenly realize that you're thirsty. 16   The answer is as clear as the stream water ： don't drink it! Most moun­tain freshwater contains tiny living things that you can't see and isn't safe to drink, even if it looks pure.

You'll be safe if you take your own water with you on outdoor adventures. If you can't carry all the purified water you'll need, you have some alternatives. 17 That's because boiling kills the harmful tiny living things, but it may not remove dangerous chemicals from the water.

18 These chemicals make the water safe to drink, but they often give a bad taste. An­other method for purifying freshwater is to use filters （过滤器），but experts caution people to choose carefully since not all filters make water absolutely safe to drink.

If you find yourself running out of water, you can preserve your “inner water" by staying out of direct sunlight, covering your skin and wearing a hat, so that you don't lose too much water through sweating. 19  

In an emergency, if you have to drink untreated water, avoid water that is near shores. Drink from an upstream source of water, if one is available. 20    If you develop a stomach­ache a few days later, visit a doctor as soon as possible.

A. What is the safest drinking water?

B. Should you take a drink from the stream?

C. You can boil freshwater to make it safe to drink.

D. You should save freshwater as much as possible.

E. Don't eat salty food because that will increase your thirst.

F. You can also take along chemicals that kill germs in water.

G. Besides, watch out for shallow water or water that has a bad smell.
