The Elephant Men program is the creation of Reginald Caster and Robert Harris, two friends who grew up together in a poor neighborhood in Memphis, Tennessee. They grew up, moved away, and became successful. They remained friends and shared an aim. The aim was to help boys aged 9 to 13 in their old neighborhood. They wanted to act as role models for young boys and to stop them from getting into trouble as they got older.
They called their program The Elephant Men after reading how elephant families in Africa surround and protect their young when they are in danger. Reginald and Robert’s program supports the young men in inner cities who are at risk of losing their lives to drugs. Their idea is “protecting our youth with the power and belief of the elephant”.
They look for different ways for young men to build respect for themselves and others. One way is to use sports, especially basketball, to bring them together. Another successful program is a four-week summer work program that includes more than 100 young boys. The boys pick up rubbish across the city in exchange for a $ 200 gift card with which they can buy school clothes. To be part of the program, the boys have to get a recommendation(推荐) letter from an adult at their school who is willing to write something good about them. This gives the boys a reason to do well in school.
“We know our program works,” says Reginald. “We have some kids in college now and the best day of the year for us is the weekend before school starts, when we see our boys in the stores buying their clothes and books for school.”
24. What did Reginald and Robert hope to do
A. Become famous. B. Leave their hometown.
C. Run their own business. D. Set good examples for boys.
25. Why is the program called The Elephant Men
A. It has the same spirit as the elephant families. B. It aims to protect the elephant.
C. It is based on a true story. D. It is the name of a book.
26. What do the boys need to do to be part of the summer work program
A. Get a recommendation from the school. B. Raise $ 200 for school to buy gifts.
C. Pick up rubbish. D. Buy school clothes.
27. How does Reginald feel about The Elephant Men program
A. Grateful. B. Satisfied. C. Puzzled. D. Worried.
C
The human brain remembers negative experiences more easily than positive ones. Our brains have developed in this way because threats, like dangerous animals, have a more immediate effect on people’s survival compared to positive things like food or shelter(居所). As a result, you clearly know what makes you unhappy, but do you know what makes you happy
Research suggests that our level of happiness is partly shaped by the choices we make. If you’ve been chasing wealth, fame, power and some material things, you may be looking for happiness in the wrong places. Psychologists suggest that the following habits can make people happier.
People who own close relationships tend to be happier than those who do not. The number of our friends is not important. What matters is the quality of our relationships. Relationships that bring happiness usually consist of the sharing of feelings, acceptance, mutual(双方的) respect and trust.
People who exercise regularly can improve both their physical and mental well-being. Some research has shown that exercise can be as effective as some medicine in treating depression.
If we are so interested in an activity, we may lose track of time, and we can be in a state of flow. The activity could be playing the piano, surfing the Internet or playing a game... People who experience flow in their work or life tend to be happier.
People are more likely to be happy if they know what their strengths are and can use them regularly. People are especially happy when they can set goals and use their strengths to achieve them.
People, who think positively by being grateful, mindful and optimistic, are more likely to be happy. Being grateful means being thankful. Being mindful means considering, focusing on, and enjoying the experiences of the present moment. Being optimistic means being hopeful about the future.
28. Why do human brains remember negative things more easily
A. Because negative things are easy to remember.
B. Because negative things can make people live much happier.
C. Because negative things tend to affect human survival immediately.
D. Because negative things are much more important than other things.
29. According to this passage, in which of the following can people not find happiness
A. Making friends. B. Chasing power. C. Doing sports. D. Playing the violin.
30. In the last paragraph, what does the author advise us to do
A. We should think more about our future. B. We should focus on everything in our life.
C. We should be positive in our life and work. D. We should only enjoy the present moment.
31. What does the passage mainly want to tell us
A. Why people remember positive things easily. B. Why people remember negative things easily.
C. The habits the people form in their life. D. Some habits that make people happy.
D
The Suez Canal(苏伊士运河), which connects the Mediterranean Sea and the Red Sea, opened in 1869. It helps speed world trade between the East and the West. But the man-made waterway has also helped speed the rise of other things, such as non-native(非本土的) species, which have damaged the Mediterranean’s environment and caused native species to disappear.
The number of non-native species has risen since the Suez Canal was widened in 2015. The “New Suez Canal” has raised concerns in many Mediterranean countries.
Bella Galil is an Israeli biologist who has studied the Mediterranean for over 30 years. She noted that the widening and deepening of the Suez Canal had created a “moving aquarium(水箱)”of species. These species could make coastal waters almost unusable for human beings. Galil believes the number of invasive(入侵的) species has reached 400, which is twice the number from 30 years ago.
Scientists in Mediterranean countries from Turkey, Tunisia to Lebanon share the same concern. But some Egyptians don’t consider the environmental concerns as serious. They said only 5% of the invaders are a problem and that invasive species can be helpful by “taking the place of species that are overfished”. They don’t think that the widening of the canal is responsible for the increase in invasive species; they say the increase was caused by rising water temperatures and wastewater from ships.
The Suez Canal Authority runs the canal. Canal officials say they are closely watching the movements of sea species. They say they are requiring ships to take action to avoid carrying species from one side of the canal to the other. And they are trying to keep salt levels high in the Bitter Lakes to stop invasive species reaching there. Galil, however, questions whether these will be enough to protect the native species. “One day we will wake up to a complete and irreversible(不可逆的) change and know that there was something we could have done about it, if only it had been done on time,” she said.
32. What does the first paragraph show
A. Seeing is believing. B. Man will beat nature.
C. Let nature take its course. D. Every coin has two sides.
33. What does Galil say about the “New Suez Canal”
A. Its environment is worsening. B. It connects Mediterranean countries.
C. It is widened to include more species. D. It protects endangered native species.
34. What do some Egyptians disagree on
A. The results of overfishing. B. The reduction of native species.
C. The cause of the increase in invasive species. D. The meaning of the widening of the Suez Canal.
35. What is Galil’s attitude to the Suez Canal Authority’s action
A. Uninterested. B. Doubtful. C. Thankful. D. Understanding.

Some garden gifts can be very useful. If you know the gift receiver likes birds, for example, you might choose to buy a bird feeder or birdbath for the garden. A stone bench is a more expensive yet very nice gift for a garden as well. 40 These gifts show that you’re really thoughtful.
