usually grows in the bones or in the surrounding cartilage, is preparing more gift cards to send
out soon. Despite enduring multiple rounds of chemotherapy (化疗） since her diagnosis in July, Avery always finds the energyeven when she is bedridden, surrounded by her own six catsto keep up with her mission. Connecting with her Facebook followers by responding to their prayers and messages, Avery and her mom post positive videos and photos of her latest medical and fundraising updates. “What an inspiration you are to all of us,” wrote one f ollower recently. In turn, Avery, whose ultimate goal is to open her own animal shelter, draws the inspiration to keep going by doing this meaningful work.

When a friend es to you after a stressful day, how do you fort them? Do you listen to them? Do you pour them a glass of wine? Those could work. But a new study finds that a very effective technique is also simple and easy: Hugging.
Michael Murphy is a psychology postdoc at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh. He wanted to know if people who received hugs regularly could handle stress and conflict better. Individuals who report perceiving (感知） the availability of a network of supportive individuals tend to show better adaptation when faced with stress. But just having a support network does not mean that you definitely feel that support. Some researchers have argued that many of the behaviors we use to support others who are stressed might actually be counterproductive because these behaviors might unintentionally municate to others that they're not petent to manage stress.
Murphy and his team interviewed 404 men and women every evening for two weeks.
During these interviews, the participants were asked a simple yes or no questionwhether somebody had hugged them that dayand a simple yes or no question of whether they had experienced conflict or tension with somebody that day. They also were asked questions about their social interactionshow many social interactions they had that dayand responded to questions about negative and positive mood states.
And the researchers found that individuals who experienced a conflict were not as negatively affected if they received a hug that day as participants who experienced conflict and didn't get a hug. Murphy and his team also saw that people who received a hug didn't carry the negative effect to the next day, while those who did not receive a hug would. The findings are in the journal PLOS One.
Murphy does include this warning: “So our findings should not be taken as evidence that people should just start hugging anyone and everyone who seems distressed. A hug from one boss at work or
a stranger on the streetthat could be viewed as not consensual."
24. Why does the author put forward two questions in the first paragraph?
A. To make a parison.
B. To list some facts.
C. To introduce the topic.
D. To make a definition.
25. What can we learn from Murphy and his team's interview?
A. Hugging helps to settle conflict.
B. Hugging brings happiness the next day.
C. Hugging contributes to the reduction of stress.
D. Hugging works well in any situation.
26. What does the underlined word “consensual” in the last paragraph mean?
A. Negative.
B. Agreeable.
C. Active.
D. Efficient.
C
Many Americans pay little attention to science. Even people who regularly watch broadcast television news or cable news channels receive only pieces of science information in their media diet. Yet humor can reach viewers who would never watch NOVA or National Geographic.
Misunderstandings about vaccine (疫苗) safety have contributed to new outbreaks of vaccinepreventable diseases, such as measles (麻疹) in 20142015 in California and in 2019 Washington state. Last year, I partnered with my colleagues Emily MoyerGusé and Melissa Robinson to test how a video of “The Daily Show” influenced parents’ concerns about vaccines.
We randomly split study participants into two groups and gave one a jokefree version of a provaccine video. The other group got a funny version in which host Jon Stewart mixed humor with information about the seriousness of measles virus. One o f steward’s jokes, “The United States has been hit with an outbreak of terrible disease. I’m not going to tell you which one. I’m going to tell you this. It rhymes with Vin Diesel.” He also mocks the parents who avoid vaccinating their children as “science denying freedom admirers”.
Study results showed that viewing the funny version of the message lowered vaccine safety concerns among the participants, especially those who previously had doubts about vaccine safety. For the audience members with strongest doubts, the funny version reduced vaccine safety concerns by 7 percent.
Traditional Vaccine messages often spark a negative influence in which showing doubters provaccine data only hardens their suspicion. Our findings suggest that humor offers a unique opportunity to address mistaken science beliefs without triggering that sort of resistance.
27.What does the word "NOVA" in paragraph 1 probably refer to?
A. A series of cellphones developed by a pany.
B. A puter game adopted from a science fiction.
C. A magazine that gets new ideas about astronomy across.
D. A bright star which is newly discovered by a group of astronomers.
28.Why did measles break out in 20142015 in California and in 2019 Washington state?
A. Measles developed into a new kind of virus.
B. The government didn't take effective measures.
C. There was no vaccine of measles in the states during the periods.
D. Many people were concerned about the effect that the vaccine had.
29. Why does Jon Steward mention Vin Diesel in his show?
A. He makes a joke on the famous actor.
B. Vin Diesel is the sponsor of his show.
C. He is a big fan of the Fast and Furious movies.
D. Vin Diesel is the special guest invited to his show.
30.What conclusion can we draw from the study results?
A. The vaccine of measles should be developed with time.
B. Measles is a kind of disease that cannot be totally defeated.
C. Being humorous is an effective way to cure people of measles.
D. The effect of clarifying misunderstandings in a humorous way is better.

You eat right, hit the gym, avoid smoking, and don't drink too much. 31 Scientists say yes. According to a new study published in the journal Preventative Medicine, people can extend their life by avoiding four poor lifestyle habits: smoking, alcohol, poor diet, and inactivity.
Researchers at the University of Zurich studied 16,721 people, ages 16 to 90 from 1977 to 1993 with their corresponding deaths up until 2003. The purpose of the study was to prove that avoiding unhealthy factors can help increase life expectancy. Some interesting findings: Smoking is the highest
risk factor, with smokers having a 57 percent higher risk of dying prematurely.32It's two and a half times higher than someone who keep away from bad health habits.
Yahoo Health could not reach costudy author Brian Martin, a professor at the Institute of Social and Preventive Medicine at the University of Zurich, for ment. 33 He once said in a university press release, "We were very surprised by the 2.5 times higher risk when all four risk factors are bined. "For example, the possibility of a 75yearold man who involves all four risk factors surviving the next 10 years is only 35 percent, If he doesn't engage in those four poor habits, his odds shoot to 67 percent.34
35 For 45to55yearolds who smoke, drink, don't work out, and don't eat healthfully, those choices barely have an effect on their death rates, pared to the effect it bas on the 65to75yearolds.The odds of a 75yearold man with none of the risk factors surviving the next 10 years is 67 percent, exactly the same for an unhealthy person who is 10 years younger. The message: Eat well, exercise, and swear off bad habits and you'll be thankful in your golden years!
A. But will your healthy lifestyle really pay off?
B. For a woman, it's 47 and 74 percent respectively.
C. However, some of his remarks can be found on record.
D. Can you stick to the good habits for a really long time?
E. Also, people who engage in all the four factors have a higher death risk.
F. What's more, the impact of an unhealthy lifestyle worsens as a person ages.
G. Besides, the more negative factors you involve in, the worse your health will be.

"We hope to raise people's 63 (aware) of the need to cherish and protect our heritage into cultural values of this era," said Wang Xudong, director of the Palace Museum. "Let's pass it down ___64 _ future generations and keep it dynamic."

阅读下面短文，根据所给情节进行续写，使之构成一个完整的故事。

My mom must have made hundreds of pies in a hundred different binations of flavors over the course of her life. She was the queen of making pies. In the summer she used fresh blackberries and cherries for filling. In the fall, apples and delicious chocolate. And at Thanksgiving, always pumpkins (南瓜), her personal favorite.
But Mom would not be baking any of her famous pies this particular year. Two weeks before Thanksgiving, she’d had a stroke (中风) and lost the ability to speak and swallow. She was being fed through a tube and would have to stay in hospital while she remastered those skills. I was thankful she’d be able to return home soon, of course, but I was sorry that we wouldn’t get to enjoy her hosting Thanksgiving, which was our family tradition. My husband, my brother and I made reservations to have our meal at a restaurant near the hospital, so we could spend the rest of the afternoon visiting with her.
The day before Thanksgiving, we got a bit of good news: Mom had passed her swallowing test. She could now handle porridge (粥) and her speech was slowly improving. This was progress, but I couldn’t help feeling sad that Mom would get no Thanksgiving to host.
At the restaurant the next day, we had turkey, potatoes, and sweet corn, however, we had no time to enjoy dessert.Mom had to be taken back to the hospital before visiting hours ended.Without pies, our Thanksgiving would not be plete. So we decided to buy some prepared pies and enjoyed our dessert in hospital as soon as possible.“We’ll have three pieces of pumpkin pie,”I said. Mom liked nothing more than to watch her family finish off their dinner with a good piece of pie. And that would be the closest thing to a real Thanksgiving that I could offer her. Maybe the nurses could blend (搅拌) up a little for her too.
