Every morning, the newspaper chief editor (主编) holds a meeting with the reporters. They discuss the main events (事件) of the day. Reporters are then sent to cover the events.

As soon as the reporters know what to write about, they get down to work. They telephone people and fix a time for a face-to-face interview with them. Sometimes they do telephone interviews. Checking information is very important. They go to the newspaper’s own library to look up any information that they need. This is called “doing one’s homework”.

At the same time, the picture editor decides which photographs will be used for the next day’s paper. All the people who work on a newspaper must be able to work fast. Reporters have to stop working on one story and start working at once on the important new one. They must find out the new information as quickly as possible. Later in the day, everything is put together at the news desk. Reporters return, type their stories into the computer and hand them to the editor.

The chief editor decides which will be the most important story on the front page. Sometimes this will have to be changed if something more important happens late in the day. Other editors read the stories which the reporters have written and make any necessary changes.

Finally, there is no more time left for adding new stories, and the time for printing (印刷) the newspaper has come. This is done on fast- moving printing machines. The newspapers are then delivered (发送) by truck, plane or rail. Speed is important. People want to buy the latest newspaper; nobody wants to buy yesterday’s.

29．According to the passage, the right order for a reporter’s work is ________.

a. writing stories    b. doing interviews    c. joining in a discussion

d. doing homework    e. handing stories to the editor

A．cbade B．cdeab C．cbdae D．cadbe

A．the importance of the events B．how well the stories are written

C．the knowledge of the chief editor D．whether they are the latest

A．help the chief editor with the morning discussion

B．decide when and how the papers can be printed

C．read the stories and make necessary changes

D．get together information from reporters and photographers

Sore necks are very common these days. How to avoid a sore neck? Here are the things you should know.

★Take precautions (预防措施) after an unusual activity. Many people report having a pain in their necks after doing something that they don’t often do, such as a new exercise or packing and moving.

If you know you’ve done something that puts you a risk, massage (按摩) your neck, do it with different exercises and take a warm bath before bed.

★Make sure your workstation is correct. If you work long hours at a desk, you may want to make sure that your work environment is set up to be the most relaxing. Make sure that your body is being treated right.

Keep your feet on the floor. This will often depend on how high your chair is, so adjust (调整) it in time to achieve good results.

★Change your posture often. Sitting in one position for long periods of time is not healthy. Sit with your back straight for most of the time. Take a 5-minute break if you can and walk around every hour.

★Exercise. Find something-swimming, running or climbing-that makes you excited and feel alive. Make it into a usual way. Your body will feel better and your mind will feel more relaxed.

My hobby is fishing. I am fond of going fishing, for it is both interesting and meaningful. It tempers my willpower. Last Sunday I went fishing with my friend, He Ping. We started at daybreak. After three hours’ cycling, we arrived at the suburbs and came to a stream. The water is clear and clean. One can see fish swimming. The meadow sprinkled with buttercups slopes to the stream. It is a good place for fishing.

In a few minutes everything was ready. Putting the bait of earthworms on the hook, dropping the hue into the strum, we sat there fishing with rod in hand. An hour passed; I did not catch a single fish. I lifted the fishing rod time and again. Time and again I was disappointed. There was no fish on the hook. On the other side of the stream, He Ping had caught several fish, one of which was very big.

“How comes it that you catch fish easily while it is so difficult for me?” I asked.

“Itˈs easy. Only you need to be patient.” He Ping answered. “Make sure that you lift the fishing rod when the whole float has sunk. Iˈm sure a fish will greet you on the hook.”

After a while the floats were swinging. I kept my breath and waked. The floats became still again. “Come on my hook, dear fish.” I was saying to myself. In a moment the floats swang again and then sank suddenly. Just at that moment I lifted my fishing rod. To my delight I caught a fish. Smilingly, I took it off the hook.

This gave me a great revelation: Stamina is what we need to achieve success. And it is more important to young people who usually lack it.

36．Why does the writer like fishing?

A．Itˈs interesting.                     B．Itˈs meaningful. 

C．The writer is too free. D．It is both interesting and meaningful.

37．How did they get to the suburbs?

A．By bus. B．By car. C．By bike. D．By train.

38．Why was the writer disappointed when fishing?

A．He didnˈt have fishing tools. B．The fish he caught was small. 

C．His fishing tool was broken. D．He could not catch fish at all.

39．How many fish did the author catch?

A．One. B．Two. C．Three.

D．Four.

40．What was the authorˈs lesson?

A．Skill comes from practice. B．We should catch big fish. 

C．We should go fishing by bike. D．Stamina is what we need to achieve success.

In recent times, the COVID-19 pandemic has destroyed the age-old habit of shaking hands. It is most widely used as a greeting, but when did shaking hands become the standard greeting?

The handshake dates all the way back to the 9th century BC．King Shalmanesar III ruled over Assyria, an empire（帝国）of the ancient Middle East. Archaeologists（考古学家）found a throne base from that time. It shows two people holding hands. In the 5th century BC, in Greece, this was a symbol of peace, showing that neither person carried a weapon. The handshake also makes an appearance in Homer’s ancient poem, the lliad（荷马史诗）. In it, two characters “shook each other’s hands”.

However, these handshakes were not used as greetings. The earliest reference to a handshake greeting is in the 16th century novels by French writer Francois Rabelais, says Dutch sociologist Herman Roodenburg.

Even so, the most widely accepted theory about the handshake’s origin is that it survived through a group called the Quakers, who were devoted to equality and peace. As the movement spread, so did the handshake, eventually becoming standard among the working class in the mid-1700s.

However, this was not the case everywhere, according to Roodenburg. Some French people described it as a vulgar（平民）English greeting, so many maintained（维持） “la bise”, the traditional peck（轻吻）on two cheeks, which was widely used until the COVID-19 outbreak. In many countries, people have started touching elbows or ankles to greet each other instead of shaking hands, as this is believed to be safer.
