22、Conservation Volunteers for Endangered Animals
Overview
The program in Australia is meant for all those animal lovers who want to volunteer abroad for a meaningful cause and contribute effectively toward the well-being of the native animals. Being a volunteer, you’ll get to work at a rescue center or a shelter, which has lots of animals in care at any given time.
Program Requirements
Volunteers must be 18 years old or older, with an open mind and a flexible attitude to working in a new and different environment. The program is open to all and you do not need any necessary qualifications (资历)to join it. Participants should be prepared to work outdoors and should be fit and healthy. Volunteers must note that this is a hands-off project and you are not allowed to touch animals unless given specific permission.
Volunteer Roles & Responsibilities
As a volunteer for this program, every day your activities may consist of:
*preparing food for the animals
*cleaning the animal enclosures(围场)
*keeping the project grounds clean and tidy
During Your Free Time Volunteers can choose to spend time in Gladstone or start to do some of the interesting things in the surrounding areas. The Great Barrier Reef is a good choice for volunteers to do a dive course or live aboard. Only minutes from the project location is Gladstone’s famous natural landmark Mount Larcom. It is commonly referred to as the “lion mountain“, because it looks like a lion and a lioness that are facing each other. At the heart of the city is Goondoon Street, where volunteers can explore the Library Square, the site of the city’s monthly produce and arts and crafts market.

23、Much of our thinking about health is based on wishful thinking. But science provides clear and simple advice for a healthy life. Graham Lawton explores the evidence. Graham proves that you don’t have to be a health and fitness extremist to be reasonably healthy. He has rounded up the latest and strictest health research and changed it into useful advice on all the big health questions: diet, weight loss, exercise, sleep, ageing and so on.
Graham, New Scientist feature writer, is not the common health expert. He sometimes eats fast food. He has a gym membership but rarely uses it. And he takes medicine to keep his blood pressure under control. He neither has a diet plan nor a 6-week program to keep fit and thin.
But he does have a much better weapon: science. In a talk, Graham explains the basic science, tells people some of the secrets of science, teaches people to use the ability of judgement to tell the good from the bad, and helps them to see beyond the headlines. The talk allows people to eat healthily, lose weight, and sort the truth out from science facts.
But he loves outdoor sports. Last year Graham cycled over 1,200 miles and ran the same distance of 15marathons. He often goes swimming outdoors, walks up eight flights of stairs to his desk instead of taking the lift. He eats his five copies of fruit and vegetables a day, keeps enough water in his body, and doesn’t eat much meat. Despite all the bad habits, his good ones seem to be winning. Graham is 50, but his “biological age” was recently measured as 45.
【1】What can we learn about Graham?
A.He has some bad habits.
B.He has an extremely strict diet.
C.He looks down on common health experts.
D.He always bases health on wishful thinking.
【2】What does Graham’s talk in paragraph 3 cover?
A.Words as weapons.
B.Health and science.
C.Functions of medicine.
D.Ability and confidence.
【3】What does the last paragraph mainly tell us concerning Graham?
A.His indoor sports of his life.
B.His copies of health books.
C.His healthy lifestyle.
D.His way of thinking.
【4】Which is the most suitable title for the text?
A.The Professional Ways to Do Sports
B.The Importance of Exercise for Health
C.The Unique Path to Scientific Success
D.The Secrets of Living a Healthy Life
24、Many Westerners have the idea that everyone in China knows how to do kung fu. This is, of course, a silly belief. But it is true that kung fu is a big part of Chinese culture.
Like most people from the West, I was first introduced to kung fu through Hong Kong action films. Stars like Bruce Lee and Jackie Chan made kung fu popular in the Western world. The flashy and impressive performances they gave in films like Rumble in the Bronx and Enter the Dragon made them household names in the U.S. and elsewhere.
However, my own personal interest in kung fu was actually inspired by a hip hop group. Wu-Tang Clan, founded in the early 1990s in New York City, is one of the most influential hip hop groups in history.
In their songs, they sometimes mention philosophical concepts that come from Wudang quan — a classic Chinese martial art from which they take their name — and Shaolin Temple. I was just a teenager when I first started listening to Wu-Tang Clan — little did I know that I would actually end up living in China later in my life!
I myself do not practice kung fu. However, the concepts behind it are quite interesting to me. There is a Bruce Lee quote that I often think of when I'm struggling with challenges in life. “Be formless, shapeless, like water,” he once said. By this, he meant that you should be ready to adapt to and change your attitudes or beliefs when you face difficulties. I think this is a good way to deal with life.
【1】What does “a silly belief” in Paragraph 1 refer to?
A.China is most famous for its kung fu.
B.All Chinese people can do kung fu
C.Kung fu is a big part of Chinese culture.
D.Many Westerners admire kung fu.
【2】What inspired the author's interest in kung fu?
A.Hong Kong action movies.
B.A TV program about kung fu.
C.A US hip hop group.
D.Kung fu stars in Hollywood.
【3】What do we know about the Wu-Tang Clan?
A.They showed the author the way to live in China.
B.They taught the author how to do Wudang quan.
C.They performed Chinese martial arts in the U.S.
D.They have Chinese culture in their songs.
