Luke has always been my closest and constant companion these past five years. In fact, he is very friendly to me especially when I take care of other furry friends in our shelter.
There have been a lot of forest fires during the summer season. Not far from our shelter, a forest caught fire during this hot summer. Luke rushed towards the forest where flames send out a terrible heat. There’s no longer any hope at the moment to wait for Luke to come back to the shelter. In fact, I was waiting for the firemen to announce me his death in the forest. Suddenly, a fireman burst into my office and informed me that my dog Luke succeeded in saving four cats which were trapped by the flames. Luke seized the kittens, one by one moving them to a safe place.
I immediately accompanied the fireman to the forest to pick up the rescued kittens,
but Luke was not there. Then we heard the sound of a dog came from the forest barking furiously. The firemen followed the tracks of the dog until they found him barking loudly by the side of an injured fireman who was lying on the ground.
That day, I was very proud of Luke for his two heroic actions. I paid a visit to the fireman accompanied with my adorable Luke. What a memorable scene when the fireman hugged Luke tightly to his chest! “One thousand thanks, Luke, for saving my life,” the fireman said.
This true story of love shows us that pets are kind, loving, and caring. We should love and protect them. Don’t belittle them. Little animals can make enormous things for humans.

Almost none of us have the time to read everything we’d like to read. Yet we lose countless hours to daily activities that bring us little joy like taking buses and waiting in line. What if we could turn these little blocks of unoccupied time into precious and rewarding moments for learning and thinking?
Established in 2012, iReader, a micro-learning app on mobile phones, brings the biggest ideas from best-selling books through 15-minute audio (音频) and text. So far, more than 3,000 books have been included, ranging from psychology and parenting to management and economics, with new titles added every day.
iReader is pioneering a new method of reading, with over 9 million users enjoying the benefits already. According to the Pew Research Center (PRC), the British read just 4 paper books a year and over 25% haven’t read a single paper book this year, but reading isn’t dying. There are now more ways for the British to read than ever before, due to the widespread use of e-books and audio books.
The books in iReader are rewritten to ensure it is easy to remember the main content. The way the content is edited has been specifically designed to ensure it is useful in practice. Besides, the content is rewritten with related examples in real life,
which means users are more likely to remember and apply what is helpful to them.
Holger Seim, German co-founder of this app, declares, “iReader gives you the biggest ideas in the shortest possible time. It transforms great ideas into little packs you can listen to or read in just 15 minutes.”
28. What does the author suggest people do in the unoccupied time?
A. Bring joy to daily routines. B. Write and share.
C. Avoid taking buses. D. Read and think.
29. What can we infer from the PRC findings?
A. The British benefit a lot from reading.
B. Reading methods are more important than before.
C. Digital technology took the place of paper books.
D. New forms of books are changing the way the British read.
30. How does iReader make the content easy to remember?
A. By bringing fun to it.
B. By making it useful.
C. By using artistic designs.
D. By taking users as examples.
31. What is the best title for the text?
A. iReader Prevents Reading from Dying
B. iReader Unites Worldwide Book-lovers
C. iReader: The Best New App Creation
D. iReader: Big Ideas in Small Packages
D
The largest-ever study of the link between city walkability and high blood pressure has been considered as evidence of the “invisible value of urban design” in improving long-term health outcomes, say researchers. The study of around 430,000 people aged between 38 and 73 and living in 22 UK cities found significant connections between the increased walkability of a neighborhood and reduced risk of high blood pressure among its residents (居民).
The results remained the same even after lifestyles and physical environment were changed, though the protective effects were particularly pronounced among participants aged between 50 and 60, women, and those living in heavily populated areas and poor neighborhoods.
The paper was published in the International Journal of Hygiene and Environmental Health. With high blood pressure a major risk factor for chronic (慢性的) and particularly heart diseases, researchers at the University of Hong Kong and Oxford University said the findings showed the need to take notice of the health-influencing factor in urban design.
“We are spending billions of pounds in preventing and curing heart diseases — if we are able to invest in creating healthy cities through small changes in the design of our neighborhoods to make them more activity-friendly and walkable, then probably, we will have significant savings in future healthcare expenses.”
Poorly designed spaces generally reduced walking and physical activity, promoting the lifestyles of long time sitting down and not moving, and were harmful to social communication, and as such related to poorer mental and physical health.
Because walkability was “based on the potential (潜在的) design of the city”, said Dr. Chinmoy Sarkar, cities could be adapted or designed to encourage it. “Such
investments in healthy design are likely to bring in long-term gains as they are lasting and common.”
32. What is probably the result if we consider “invisible value of urban design”?
A. The ageing population will be reduced.
B. Our cities will be more walkable and activity-friendly.
C. More money will be invested in preventing and curing heart diseases.
D. The pace of urbanization will be slowed down.
33. What can be inferred from the study?
A. Young people are more likely to benefit from increased walkability.
B. Walkable cities will cure a person of his or her high blood pressure.
C. Chronic diseases are becoming common for people’s inattention to their health.
D. Walkable cities can help reduce blood pressure and the risk of heart diseases.
34. What isn’t the effects of poorly-designed neighborhoods?
A. Worse economy. B. Unhealthy lifestyle.
C. Fewer social communication. D. Poorer health.
35. What does Dr. Chinmoy Sarkar mean?
A. Cities should encourage the residents to engage in social communication.
B. The design of our neighborhoods should meet people’s needs for shopping.
C. Money invested in creating healthy cities is money saved in future healthcare expenses.
D. Chronic diseases will be common because of pollution and the environment change.

How Laughing at Yourself Makes You Attractive
Have you ever embarrassed yourself in public and got laughed at for it？ 36 And it's okay — we should even have a laugh about them.
●Laughing at yourself means accepting who you really are. You may feel bad about yourself because of past misfortune. However, it's normal to be imperfect. What's important is that you should be honest with yourself about who you are. 37 You won’t be able to laugh at yourself without self-acceptance.
●Laughing at yourself helps increase your confidence. When you're able to stay optimistic and laugh at yourself, you are likely to be more successful in life. 38 More importantly, it helps you realize your own weaknesses, so you know which areas to do better in.
● 39 Laughing at someone else may hurt their feelings even if you didn't intend to, while laughing at yourself does not. You might even bring a smile to their faces. Don’t worry about losing respect from others, because people actually appreciate it when you laugh at yourself. Laughing at yourself shows that you have the courage to do so and you’re being real about your imperfections, making people think you are likeable.
Just remember that humans all make mistakes. So instead of blaming yourself, try to think of your mistakes, in a positive way and accept yourself just as you are. 40
A. Laughing at yourself makes you popular.
B. Accept yourself despite your imperfections.
C. You should try to understand yourself better.
D. Chances are that we all have these kinds of experiences.
E. Laughing at yourself changes an ideal image of yourself.
