21、Four Ways to Beat Summer Weight Gain

When we think of the summer holiday，most of us think of outdoor fun. So it seems like we should naturally lose weight over the summer holiday. In reality，the summer holiday isn’t all beach volleyball and water sports. Therefore，we can gain weight easily in the summer holiday.【1】 Here are four ways to beat summer weight gain.

1.【2】 When we don’t have a plan，it’s easy to spend the summer holiday moving from the couch to the computer，with regular stops before the fridge. Avoid this by aiming for a specific goal，like volunteering，mastering a new skill，or working at a job. Just be sure to plan for some free time so you can relax a little！

2. Stay busy. When we’re bored，it’s easy to fall into a trap of doing nothing and then feeling low on energy. In addition to helping you avoid the cookie jar， filling your days with stuff to do can give you a sense of accomplishment.【3】

3. Beat the heat. Don’t let summer heat put your exercise plans on hold.【4】 If a gym isn’t your scene， try bowling or an indoor climbing wall. If you love being outdoors， move a regular run or soccer game to early morning or evening.

4.【5】 With school out， we lose our daily routines. If you don’t have a specific job or an activity to get up for，it’s easy to sleep late， watch too much TV，and snack more than usual. Make sure your summer days have some structure—like getting up at the same time each day. Plan activities for specific times，like exercising before breakfast.

A. Stick to a schedule.

B. Get going with goals.

C. Relax by walking outside.

D. Move your workout indoors.

E. We usually stay at home in the summer holiday.

F. That’s especially true if a dream summer job falls through.

G. However，it’s easy to avoid this problem if we know what to look out for.

22、One night, Pilar was in a deep sleep when she was woken by her cat Inti. Inti was meowing wildly outside Pilar's bedroom and throwing himself against the closed bedroom door.When Pilar opened her eyes, she saw that her bedroom was filled with smoke. As she escaped her house with Inti in her arms, she saw that a fire was burning in her kitchen. Pilar could easily have lost her life,but Inti would not let that happen. Even though Inti could have escaped the house through a cat door, he wouldn't leave Pilar.

As amazing as this story is, it is not as uncommon as you may think. Take the example of Charlotte Lee and her horse,Thunder. One summer night, the whole family was asleep with the windows open. It was normally very quiet where they lived. Suddenly, there was a loud noise. Charlotte woke up from her sweet dream, and the noise continued. Then she heard a horse running fast towards the house. The next thing she saw was Thunder standing outside her window, neighing and shaking his head. She knew something was wrong. Charlotte quickly got everyone out of the house before the earthquake hit. Thunder has saved her life.

There are also stories of wild animals coming to the rescue of humans. One animal known to be a friend of humans is the dolphin. Once, Todd Endris was surfing with his friends when he was attacked by a 13-foot (4-metre) shark. In the middle of the attack, a group of dolphins came to his rescue by forming a protective ring around Endris until he could get safely to the shore. Without the help of the dolphins, there is little chance that Todd could have escaped.

No one is sure why animals have so often come to our rescue. However, it is clear that humans and animals enjoy a close relationship. It is important that we care for them as much as we can.

【1】Why did Inti meow wildly and throw himself against the door?

A．To save his owner’s life.

B．To protect his owner.

C．To help himself out.

D．To keep away from the house.

【2】What can we know about Inti and Thunder?

A．They were courageous and brilliant.

B．They both used noise to warm their owners.

C．They had saved their owners many times.

D．They chose to escape solely.

【3】What’s the attitude of Todd to the dolphins?

A．Appreciative.

B．Objective.

C．Thankless.

D．Doubtful.

【4】What can we infer from the text?

A．Humans and animals enjoy a close relationship.

B．We should care for them as much as we can.

C．Humans and animals are good friends and companions.

D．How we treat animals will reflect how animals treat us.

24、Good computer skills are desirable in today’s digital age, and playing computer games can help children practice those skills — as long as they don’t overdo it, scientists warn. A British study found that those who played computer games less than once a week achieved better grades at school than ones who played them twice a day or more often. The study also found that daily use of social media did not affect school performance.

“It was clear that social media didn’t have any impact. I think that’s more because social media is part of every child’s life. It’s the way they communicate. It’s the way they keep in touch with their friends,” said Celine McStravick of the National Children’s Bureau Northern Ireland.

Parents increasingly complain of having difficulty getting their children away from computer games. Some even seek help for their teenagers who they say are addicted to them. The study did not look into addiction, but suggested computer games can cause children to stay up late in the evenings，making them tired and less able to focus at school the next day.

Mark Starkey, the owner of the Heart of Gaming computer game outlet (批发商) in London, said there is also the difference between older games and the new ones.

“The ability to make games a lot more bigger, a lot more detailed, a lot more complex is here now. It’s going to hold their attention longer. ‘Oh my god, I have to see what happens next,’ etc. However, the old games challenge more your hand-eye coordination (协调), your speed, your timing, your reactions, rather than your imagination,” said Starkey.

The games industry has long claimed there is no proven link between games and addiction. But the new study says additional research is needed to establish the effect of computer game- playing on performance at school.

【1】We can learn from the passage that   .

A. using social media daily has the same effect on students as computer games

B. older games have worse effect on students than newer ones

C. students may suffer from spending too much time playing computer games

D. there is no proven link between computer games and addiction

【2】What’s Celine’s attitudes towards the use of social media?

A. Tolerant.   B. Supportive.   C. Doubtful.   D. Negative.

【3】In which way do the old computer games benefit you?

A. Making you slay, up late at night.

B. Holding your attention much longer.

C. Distracting your attention on lessons.

D. Challenging your hand-eye coordination.

【4】What can we infer from the passage?

A. It’s certain that most students are addicted to games.

B. Further study will go deep into the game-playing effect.

C. Old computer games will obtain the larger half of market.

D. There is no way to find a link between games and addiction.

25、   My name is Gillian Healy. I run a small start-up company in Dublin called Gut Instinct, and we ______ a fermented (发酵的) drink called kombucha. It originated in China around 200 BC and later spread across Asia and into Europe. It’s been quite ______ in America and Australia for a number of years ______ it’s just hitting Ireland now.
