24、   Henry was an office worker in a big city.  He worked very hard and enjoyed traveling in his holidays.  He usually went to the seaside, but one year he saw an advertisement in a newspaper.  “Enjoy country life.  Spend a few weeks at West Hill Farm.  Good food.  Fresh air.  Horse riding.  Walking.  Fishing.  Cheap and interesting. ”

“This sounds like a good idea, he thought, “I’ll spend a month at West Hill Farm.  I think I can enjoy horse riding, walking and fishing.  They’ll make a change from sitting by the seaside and swimming. ” He wrote to the farmer.  In the letter he said that he would like to spend the whole July there.  Then on the first day of July, he left for West Hill Farm.

But four days later, he returned home.

“What was wrong with West Hill Farm?” his best friend, Ed, asked him.  “Didn’t you enjoy country life?“Country life was very good,” Henry said.  “But there was another problem. ’

25、What’s the most popular Winter Olympics design with kids and teenagers?It must be the mascot. Bing Dwen Dwen, a panda in an ice shell, was chosen as the official mascot for the Beijing 2022 Winter Games back in 2019.

“The International Olympic Committee（IOC） found that for mascots to be successful they had to be cute and liked by 9-year-olds,” said Cao Xue, he chose Bing Dwen Dwen, which became the final mascot.

According to Cao, Bing Dwen Dwen was chosen from 5, 816 designs from 38 countries and regions. The idea first came from a traditional Chinese snack bingtanghulu—fruit coated in syrup（糖浆）, a simple snack cannot stand for a country by itself. Cao’s team then tried many plants and animals, finally going with a panda. “What can better stand for China than our national treasure?”said Cao. “We don’t need to explain anything to have it understood across different cultures. “

However, there were already too many cartoon images of pandas out there so the mascot needed to be different. Cao first decided that it should be a baby panda instead of an adult one. This is how they got Bing Dwen Dwen’s body shape. Its body has the same length（长度） as its head.

Cao’s team then collected all the panda designs they could find across the world to avoid similarities. They even visited the panda nature reserve（保护区） in Wolong, Sichuan（灵感）. They found that baby pandas walk pigeon-toed（内八字） and often lean while standing.

“When we finally got Bing Dwen Dwen, our whole team was over the moon,”said Cao. “Now I can’t wait to see it greet the world at the Winter Games opening ceremony.”

A．It is considered the cutest animal in China.

26、So, it’s exam time again. Have you done the necessary work to get good scores?

Some students sleep with the textbook under the pillow(枕头) in the hope that knowledge will be magically going to their brain. But it doesn’t work. The best way is to practice repeatedly over a long period of time instead of learning all things in a short time before exams. Just as a scientist called Tom Stafford advises, if you organize five hours of study into one hour a day, you’ll remember more than if you study for five hours on one day.

________—get a pen and paper and start working. Students who can test themselves earlier will be better at getting back the knowledge from the memory and keep it in the long run. John Dunlosky, a Professor of Psychology at Kent State University in the US; suggests that “You start by reading a textbook with your favorite pens and colors; and then write down the important ideas on small cards. While doing so, you actually try to test yourselves on them.”

Good revision(复习) should give you confidence. But if you are still worried, some special traditions are suggested. In Japan it seems to be a tradition for students to eat Katsudon before a test. This is a bowl of rice with egg and pork pieces; The name of the dish makes people think of the word “Katsu”, meaning “winning”. For some students in South Korea, the key to success is not washing their hair before an exam, because they believe they could wash all the knowledge out of their heads. And in different parts of the world, there are always those who believe in their “lucky socks”.

The bottom line is that you need to stay healthy. Eating good meals, drinking enough water and sleeping well on the eve of the test help a lot. They make it easier for you to get success.

Good luck in your exam!
