Delhis first-ever oxygen bar named “Oxy Pure” offers 15 minutes of 80-90 percent pure oxygen starting from Rs 299.The bar, _31_ in May, also offers its customers several aromas(香味)to choose from that can be filled with oxygen. The aromas include lemongrass, cherry, mango and more.Customers are given a lightweight tube, used for supplementary oxygen _32_. The device is placed near the customers nose through which they are advised to breathe in the aroma-filled oxygen.According to the aroma you choose, each session _33_ to improve ones sleep patterns and digestion, cure headaches and even claims to work as a remedy for _34_.“I was passing by and saw that they were offering pure oxygen. I thought I would give it a try and went for the lemongrass flavour. It was _35_,” Manjul Mehta, a customer at Oxy Pure told Delhi Daily.Speaking to Delhi Daily, Bonny Irengbam, senior sales assistant at the bar, said customers were _36_ positively after a few sessions.“Some people, who try it for the first time, will feel relaxed and fresh. But only people who undergo the sessions regularly will get real _37_ of the aroma,” he added. “Though we have regular customers, we dont encourage back-to-back sessions, as _38_ levels of oxygen in the body can make a person dizzy. It is _39_ to do it once or twice a month or to stick with the 10-15 minute sessions a day,” he said.Dr. Rajesh Chawla, a senior consultant in medicine said that though such sessions do not have any side-effects, it does not help in the long run either. “Even if you breathe in the so-called pure oxygen for two hours in a day, you will go back to breathing the polluted air for the rest of the 22 hours”, he said. He added that the concept is purely a(n) _40_ move. III. Reading ComprehensionSection ADirections: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context. Stories about the problems of tourism have been numerous in the last few years. Yet it does not have to be a problem. Although tourism inevitably affects the region in which it takes place, the costs to these fragile (脆弱的) environments and their local cultures can be _41_. Indeed, as has happened with some Alpine villages,it can even be a(n) _42_ for refreshing local cultures. And a growing number of adventure tourism _43_ are trying to ensure that their activities benefit the local population and environment over the long term.In the Swiss Alps, communities have decided that their future depends on combining tourism more effectively with the local _44_. Local concern about the rising number of second home developments in the Swiss Pays-dEnhaut resulted in _45_ being imposed on their growth. There has also been a new interest in cheese production in the area, providing the locals with a _46_ source of income that does not depend on outside visitors.Many of the Arctic tourist destinations have been exploited by _47_ companies, who employ temporary workers and send most of the profits back to their home base. But some Arctic communities are now operating tour businesses themselves, thereby ensuring that the benefits increase _48_. For instance, a native corporation in Alaska, employing local people, is running an air tour from Anchorage to Kotzebue, where tourists eat Arctic food, walk on the lands and watch local musicians and dancers.Native people in the desert regions of the American Southwest have followed _49_ strategies, encouraging tourists to visit their towns and reservations to _50_ high-quality handicrafts and artwork. Some have established highly profitable stoneware businesses, while the Navajo and Hopi groups have been similarly _51_ with jewelry.Too many people living in fragile environments have lost control over their economies, their culture and their environment when tourism has spread through their homelands. Merely restricting tourism cannot be the _52_ to the imbalance because peoples desire to see new places will not just disappear. _53_, communities in fragile environments must achieve greater control over tourism ventures in their regions, in order to _54_ their needs and desires with the demands of tourism. A growing number of communities are _55_ that, with firm combined decision-making, this is possible. The critical question now is whether this can become the normal status, rather than the exception. 41.A. promotedB. minimizedC. inheritedD. deleted42.A. vehicleB. responsibilityC. exampleD. entrance43.A. operatorsB. professorsC. mayorsD. journalists44.A. committeeB. cultureC. sceneryD. economy45.A. viewsB. burdensC. limitsD. qualifications46.A. costlyB. criticalC. reliableD. sensible47.A. responsibleB. nativeC. thoughtfulD. outside48.A. locallyB. extensivelyC. virtuallyD. typically49.A. positiveB. personalizedC. similarD. primary50.A. estimateB. collectC. appreciateD. purchase51.A. relevantB. successfulC. combinedD. impressed52.A. desireB. solutionC. appealD. priority53.A.

(A)McCoy was looking for a safe place to do drugs when something clearly out of place caught his eye: a luxurious brown leather handbag. McCoy, 36, could relate all too well. One of his few possessions, the sleeping bag he used in an abandoned house, had recently been stolen. Remembering how angered hed been by his own loss, he resolved to return the purse to its owner. He began right away, starting with the address on the bill found in the handbag. After traveling much of the day and finally approaching the address on the bill, he was stopped by a woman, who asked whether she could buy the purse. McCoy refused, saying he was searching for its owner. “But I am the owner,” the woman said. “Thats my purse.” A month earlier, Kaitlyn Smith, 29, a sales representative for a medical device company, had woken up to find her apartment broken into and her purse stolen. Now she came across a tall, messy-looking man holding it tightly. She could instantly tell he wasnt in good shape.At Smiths urging, McCoy told her his story. Hed been in charge of a landscaping business until 2012, when a car accident left him addicted to drugs. Smith, amazed this stranger had gone to such great lengths to return her bag, asked whether there was anything she could do to help. “Im a drug addict,” McCoy warned. “I dont want to intrude on your life; Im probably gonna let you down.”Unafraid, Smith gave him her phone number, saying, “If you want to go to rehab (戒毒所), call me.” She then drove him back to his neighborhood and left, thinking that would be the end of it. Two days later, she got a call. Smith realized that McCoy was serious about getting better, so she dug into her savings account and bought McCoy a plane ticket to Florida. While there, he would call her to let her know how he was doing. “We were getting to know each other,” Smith says. “His scared, desperate voice turned into a healthy, lively one.” After 28 days at a rehab program at Johns Hopkins Hospital, McCoy is drug-free. He lives at a residential recovery center in Baltimore, and a GoFundMe page set up by Smith has covered his rent, groceries, and incidentals. His life is back on track, all because one crime victim could understand anothers loss. 56. What drove McCoy to look f
