Brandon Olsen and Tylor Fritz of Hometown Sanitation(公共卫生) left gifts for three sisters who waved to them each Thursday after learning that one of them，3-year-old Rose，had been fighting cancer.
The men also gave their parents free garbage service for one year.
“When they did that，it was a few weeks before the diagnosis(诊断) when every day just felt so impossible，”said Rose’s mother，Angie Evenson，of Blue Earth，Minnesota.“Nothing in reality changes Rose’s diagnosis.But what they did makes us feel we are truly not alone in this fight.”
With binoculars(双筒望远镜) in hand，Rose and her two sisters，Grace,5 and Sophia,2 sat by the window and waved at their garbage men，Olsen and Fritz，as they drove by on their weekly route.
Olsen,29，and Fritz,24，told ABC Ne w s that the girls’smiling faces are what they look forward to while working.They even left Halloween candy for the girls this year to show their appreciation.They hope that more and more people can understand and support their work.
But weeks later，Evenson wrote Olsen and Fritz a note explaining that little Rose wouldn’t be able to wave to them for a while since she’d be undergoing chemotherapy(化疗)．Rose had been diagnosed with Stage 4 kidney cancer in September.
“As a father of three，it changed my outlook on things，”Olsen said.“It opened my eyes...you don’t know what someone else is going through.”
Fritz said he cried when he read the note.“I got to the chemo part and there were tears running down my face，” he recalled.“I don’t have any children of my own，but I can imagine if someone very close to me is diagnosed as cancer，I’ll be heartbroken.”
“Rose is being treated at Sanford Children’s Hospital in Sioux Falls，South Dakota.She will miss a few more Thursdays，when she can wave to her garbage men，but her chemo sessions will be switched to Mondays soon and she’ll be back by the window early next year.I have confidence in Rose’s recovery，” her mother said.
24．How did the garbage men help Rose’s family?

Self-driving cars are so popular that the University of Michigan has even established a town called Mcity to allow car manufacturers to safely test their autonomous cars.
While Mcity can be used to simulate(模拟) many real-life road conditions，it cannot help test gestures drivers use to communicate their intention to other drivers，pedestrians or cyclists.To find a solution，US car manufacturer Ford，with researchers from Virginia Tech，firstly considered using text as a way to communicate the car’s intention，but decided it would probably not work universally.The option of using symbols was also discarded，because research shows that a majority of people do not have a good understanding of what they mean.
Finally，the researchers settled on light signals.A white light warned that there were no humans in the car.A slow blinking one indicated that the car was coming to a stop，while a rapidly flashing light cautioned passers-by that the car was about to accelerate.
Then came the big challenge—testing the signals on real road.“We needed to try out this new lighting to communicate the intention of the vehicle，but if you’ve got a driver behind the seat，you still have natural communication between humans，” said Andy Shaudt，who led the Virginia Tech research team.“So we needed to make it look like a driverless car.”
The team designed a car seat costume(服装) that the driver would wear to cover his or her face and upper body.Of course，the drivers could see very clearly.The researchers then equipped the car with cameras to capture human reactions to a light bar on the windshield(挡风玻璃)，which flashed one of the three signals when appropriate.Six drivers，all keeping their hands low on the wheel so as not to be detected，took turns to test driving the car through the busy streets.
The overall reaction to the flashing lights was very encouraging.Who knew costumes could be useful for more than Halloween?
28．What did the team first consider using as a way to communicate the car’s intention? A．Light. B．Language.
C．Symbols. D．Sound.
29．What does the underlined word “they” in the second paragraph refer to?
A．Symbols. B．Drivers.
C．Researchers. D．Flashes.
30．What does a rapidly flashing light mean?
A．The car was coming to a stop.
B．There was no driver in the car.
C．The car was about to speed up.
D．The car was about to slow down.
31．The car seat costume was intended to .
A．amuse the drivers
B．attract the pedestrians
C．warn the cyclists
D．confuse the people

Depression and suicidal thoughts have doubled in young Americans，according to a new study from the American Psychological Association.
Likely triggers? Cell phones and social media.
“More US adolescents and young adults in the late 2010s，vs the mid-2000s，experienced serious psychological distress，major depression and more attempted suicide(自杀)”，says lead researcher Jean Twenge，professor of psychology at San Diego State University.“These trends are weak or non-existent among adults who are 26 years and over，suggesting a generational shift in mood disorders instead of an overall increase across all ages.”
Twenge believes this trend is partially due to the explosion of digital culture over the past decade，which may have twisted modes of social interaction enough to affect mood disorders.
The study analyzed data from the National Survey on Drug Use and Health，which tracked drug and alcohol use and mental health issues in more than 200,000 youths aged 12 to 17 from 2005 to 2017 and almost 400,000 adults from 2008 to 2017.
Major depression in the last 12 months increased by 52 percent in kids from 2005 to 2017 and 63 percent in young adults aged 18 to 25 from 2009 to 2017.There was also a 71 percent jump in young adults experiencing serious psychological distress in the previous 30 days from 2008 to
2017.
So what’s so different now? Twenge says research shows young people just aren’t getting as much shuteye as they did in previous generations.
Whereas older Americans might have established more stability in their lives，sleep-disrupting social stressors are likely at their peak for teens and young adults in this digital era，she says.Older adults are also less likely to let devices interfere(干预) with sleep.
These results suggest a need for more research to understand how digital communication versus face-to-face social interaction influences mood disorders and to develop specialized interventions for younger age groups.
Her suggestion？Put your phone down at least an hour before bedtime.
32．How is Paragraph 6 developed?
A．By stating facts.
B．By giving examples.
C．By providing statistics.
D．By presenting theories.
33．What might Professor Twenge agree with?
A．Mood disorders show no difference across all ages.
B．Teens are less likely to let devices interfere with sleep.
C．Digital cultural explosion might cause depression in teens.
D．The past decade has seen a sharp decrease in teens’ mental disorders.
34．What do the underlined words “social stressors” in Para.8 mean?
A．Interaction modes.
B．Mental health issues.
C．Drug and alcohol use.
D．Cell phones and social media.
35．From which is the text probably taken?
A．A biology textbook. B．A science magazine.
C．A travel guidebook. D．A medical case.

Dear John，
I’m writing to express my genuine apologies for failing to keep my promise to play basketball with you in the gym this Saturday afternoon.
Yesterday I walked to a bookstore nearby，but I slipped on the muddy road unexpectedly，making my ankle slightly sprained.My doctor suggested that I should take a rest for two weeks without any strenuous exercise.As the summer holiday is coming，can we make another appointment after my recovery then?
Sorry again for any inconvenience that I’ve caused.Looking forward to our next meeting.
Yours，
