I dreamed f playing the pian as a kid and managed t get int the Ryal Academy f Arts in my 30s, I visited Thailand where I met my wife. My wife wrks at a sanctuary(保护区) called Elephants Wrld. On my 50th birthday, she persuaded the manager f Elephants Wrld t allw us t bring a pian there t play fr the rescued elephants. I wanted t make the effrt t carry the heavy pian myself, knwing these animals have wrked fr humans all their life and that many are disabled frm being treated badly. It was challenging. At last, we used a truck t transprt my pian and placed it in a field.
Elephants are almst always hungry — if they get the pprtunity, they’ll eat and wn’t stp. But as sn as I started playing, ne elephant, wh was blind, stpped eating and listened. I realized that this elephant, trapped in a wrld f darkness, lved music. Frm that day, there was n mre cncern, and that was the beginning f the cnnectin between me and these huge creatures.
I cntinue t play fr these elephants that run freely, thugh I culd be under threat f attack. But I have faith that music smehw makes them quiet and relaxed. Once, a particularly dangerus male elephant walked straight t me when I started playing, and curled(卷) his trunk. He lked like a baby and just std by the pian, which was incredible.
I’d played pre-recrded music in the jungle, but they didn’t seem t react; the same with the electric pian. A traditinal pian, the sunds f which spread acrss the wds, seems t cmmunicate better with the animals. They can pick up sunds thrugh their feet. I als think elephants understand the human expressin, which shws music really is a universal language. And music has becme an essential part f their life, illustrating the prfund impact that music can have n these creatures.
I never wuld have thught I’d cmbine my lve fr the pian with an unexpected lve fr elephants.
24. What des the underlined wrd “It” in paragraph 1 refer t?
A. Playing the pian fr the elephants.B. Getting the manager’s permissin.
C. Getting the pian int the sanctuary.D. Wrking fr human beings fr lng.
25. What bsted the authr’s cnfidence t play fr the elephants?
A. His passin fr music.B. The respnse f an elephant.
C. The supprt frm his wife.D. His sympathy fr the elephants.
26. What des the example f the male elephant in paragraph 3 shw?
A. The music has a calming influence.B. Male elephants prefer music.
C. The authr is highly skilled in pian.D. Peple ften misunderstand elephants.
27. What des the authr say abut the elephants in paragraph 4?
A. They have special language.B. They bnd with him sn.

Rushing dwn the path, the traceur(跑酷者) is n the lkut fr his next bstacles such as fire escapes, walls, r fences. As sn as he realizes a massive brick wall stands between him and where he wants t be, he unintentinally grabs n the wall with his hands and lifts himself t stand n tp f it. His next mve is a jump that lands him back n slid grund; hwever, nticing that he is unstable, he rlls t avid injury.
Traceurs are athletes wh perfrm remarkable gymnastics actins in urban envirnments. Serius traceurs are fascinated nt just by the physical challenges f Parkur, but by its philsphy. Thse wh learn t excel at Parkur claim t develp nt just physical fitness, but increased self-cnfidence and critical thinking skills, as they train themselves t find ways arund every bstacle in their paths.
Because f these philsphical fundatins, Parkur is ften described by traceurs as mre f a lifestyle r an art frm than a sprt. Passinate traceurs are determined t keep Parkur frm becming a cmpetitive attempt. Cmpetitin, they argue, devalues the philsphical thery behind Parkur. Peple wh practice Parkur shuld be mre cncerned with their relatinship t the envirnment than with a ticking clck, a scre, r a cheering crwd. Furthermre, traceurs shuld wrk with each ther t imprve cnfidence, awareness, and unity. Cmpetitin, they argue, nly brings abut feelings f cnflict and disharmny.
While Parkur purists suggest that the philsphy behind Parkur helps t limit injuries, they must remember that nt everyne wh tries t leap ver a mailbx is an experienced traceur trying t get in tuch with his r her envirnment. Adlescents attempting t carry ut these acrbatic(杂技的) skills culd severely injure themselves. S while newcmers t Parkur might be eager t investigate this art f mvement, it wuld be wise fr them t remember the physicality behind the philsphy. After all, philsphy is nt much gd t a brken leg.
28. Why des the authr describe a traceur at the beginning?
A. T illustrate what Parkur is like.B. T teach ways f aviding injuries.
C. T explain different Parkur mves. D. T highlight the ppularity f sprts.
29. Hw can Parkur enhance a traceur’s self-cnfidence?
A. By strengthening physical fitness.B. By winning Parkur cmpetitins.
C. By building faith in cnquering barriers. D. By grasping sme philsphical theries.
30. What d we knw abut serius and pure traceurs?
A. They are aware f hw t treat injuries.B. They suggest individual effrts in the sprt.
C. They stress the relatinship t the envirnment.D. They are mre cncerned with remarkable actins.
31. What des the authr advise newcmers t d?
A. Face physical challenges bldly.B. Learn frm experienced traceurs.
C. Start frm leaping ver a mailbx.D. Cnsider the risk f severe harm.
D
Despite its benefits, drinking milk int adulthd, let alne ther animals’ milk, is a strange behavir in the animal kingdm. What makes it even stranger is that an estimated 68 percent f the glbal human ppulatin is actually lactse(乳糖) intlerant. Scientists are still getting t the bttm f why the practice began and cntinued. This research culd unlck new understandings f ur fd cultures and even ur DNA.
The earliest evidence f animal milk drinking dates back almst 9,000 years t mdern-day Turkey near the sea f Marmara, where milk fats have been fund n ancient pttery. Accrding t Jessica Hendy, a scientist at the University f Yrk, the milk wuld have been part f a diverse diet fr it was mixed with ther fd. Frm its rigins, the technlgy f making use f milk spread int the Caucasus and then acrss Eurpe. By the Brnze Age, peple may have been using cw’s milk t feed their babies.
Fr a lng time, researchers believed that milk drinking changed as a cultural practice hand in hand with the spread f genetic mutatins(变异) that allwed peple t tlerate milk int adulthd. But ne recent finding suggests milk drinking ccurred befre these mutatins and might nt even require them. In Eurpe, peple appear t have been drinking milk fr thusands f years befre any genetic ability t drink milk became cmmn. The ancient cheese making equipment might ffer part f the slutin: Fermenting(发酵) milk int ygurt, cheese, r ther prducts reduces the amunt f lactse. In Mnglia, researchers have nt yet fund a genetic mutatin that allws peple t digest lactse, despite the majr rle f milk in that culture. S sme scientists held that there might be ther ptential factrs helping.
What we d knw abut the histry f milk reveals hw wrng-headed ne-size-fits-all nutritinal guidance can be. In mdern America, milk drinking has been presented as a universal gd. In reality, hw milk is prepared can change the nutritinal picture, and hw much ur bdies prcess depends, at least in part, n ur wn genes.
32. What can we learn abut milk drinking frm paragraph 2?
A. It used t be a symbl f identity. B. It initially started with little babies.
C. It was the key diet f ancient peple. D. It has been a human traditin fr lng.
33. Why des the authr mentin Eurpe in paragraph 3?
A. T give a suggestin.B. T define a cncept.C. T make a predictin.D. T clarify a finding.
34. What can be inferred frm the last paragraph?
A. Milk cnsumptin functins as a cure-all.B. Milk intake varies frm persn t persn.
C. Milk’s nutritinal value is beynd imaginatin.D. One’s milk digestive ability changes cnstantly.
35. Which f the fllwing can be the best title fr the text?
A. The Mystery f Drinking MilkB. The Prcess f Genetic Mutatins
C. The Phenmenn f Lactse IntleranceD. The Technlgy f Making Milk Prducts

It’s been estimated that peple tuch their cell phnes hundreds f times every day. That means plenty f pprtunities fr germs t mve frm ur fingers t ur phnes.
36 But a recent study fund mre than 17,000 bacterial gene cpies n the phnes f high schl students.
One f the wrst places t use cell phnes is in the bathrm. 37 Studies have fund that ur mbile phnes are much dirtier than tilet seats. Just as an expert puts it, taking a phne int the bathrm and then leaving with it is kind f like ging in, nt washing yur hands and then cming back ut.
While many f us wash ur hands regularly after ging t the bathrm, we seldm cnsider washing ur hands after tuching ur phnes. 38
Yu can use alchl-based wipes r sprays t clean yur phne regularly. They need t cntain at least 70% alchl t disinfect phne casings and tuch screens. 39 Remember t sanitize(消毒) yur phne charger ccasinally when yu are cleaning yur phne. And wash yur hands thrughly after yu’ve finished cleaning.
40 Get in the habit f putting yur phne away when it’s nt in use, then cleaning yur hands. When nt at hme, keep yur phne in yur pcket r bag. Use a dispsable paper list f t-d items, rather than cnstantly cnsulting yur phne.
D nt share yur phne with thers if yu have nt first sanitized it. If children are allwed t play with yur phne, sanitize it as sn as pssible afterward.
