school in 1951,her mother told her,“Be sure and take a typing course sowhen this show business thing doesnt work out,youll have something to rely on.“From that moment on,“thevery last thing I ever thought about doing was taking a typing course,”Mary recalls.The show business thing worked out,of course.In her career,Mary won many awards.Only recently,whenshe began to write Growing Up Again,did she regret ignoring her mom,“I dont know how to use a computer,she admits.Unlike her 1995 autobiography,After All,her second book is less about life as an award-winning actress andmore about living with diabetes.All the money from the book is intended for the Juvenile Diabetes ResearchFoundation(JDRF).“I feltthere was a need for a book like this,she says.“I didnt want to lecture,but I wantedother diabetics to know that things get better when were self-controlled and do our part in managing the disease.”But she hasnt always practiced what she teaches,In her book,she describes that awful day,almost 40 yearsago.when she received two pieces of life-changing news.First,she had lost the baby she was carrying,andsecond,tests showed that she had diabetes,In a childlike act,she left the hospital and treated herself to a box ofdoughnuts.Year would pass before she realized she had to grow up again and take control of her diabetes.Onlythen did she kick her three-pack-a-day cigarette habit,overcome her addiction to alcohol,and begin to follow abalanced diet.Although her disease has forced her to the sidelines of the dance floor,she refuses to fall into self-pity.“Everybody on earth can ask,why me?about something or other,she insists.It doesnt do any good.No one isimmune to pain and disappointments.Sometimes we can make things better by helping others.I want to speakout and be as helpful as I can be.24.Marys mother asked Mary to take a typing course because she thoughtA.Mary had a talent for computer scienceB.Mary failed to achieve her ambitionC.Mary might need a meal

breakdancing,surfing,and sport climbing amongthe recent additions.A group of terms come with them that are foreign to the French language.SomeFrench-language purists point out its too much to bear to rely on English to praise surfers on their noseriding”-standing on the front of the board.Theyve decided they need a French solution.The French government has created a team of language experts devoted to promoting the national language.They will meet periodically over the next couple of years to identify and define new sports terms.The Frenchbattle against the influence of other languages isnt new.In 1994,the Toubon law was passed,forcing the use ofFrench in all government publications，contracts and advertisements.Yet it contained several loopholes（漏洞），which allow brands and companies to extensively use English.As a result,anglicisms-words from the Englishlanguage used in another language-are becoming more obvious.Julie Neveux,linguistics professor at Sorbonne University in Paris,said anglicisms are“sometimes estimatedat just under 5%of the present vocabulary,but they are disturbing because they show that we follow an economyand cultural model other than our own.”They are particularly present in sports competitions and events,duringwhich athletes from around the world are used to communicating in English.“Sport was one of the first areas tobe globalized,“said sports historian MichaelAttali.Despite their best efforts,no committee has successfully prevented English from influencing everydaylanguage.“Similar committees have been put in place in the past,but nothing has changed so far,said Attali.There are far fewer anglicisms in French than there are French words in English.said Neveux.adding theseexchanges should not be seen as a threat.“All living languages exist by borrowing from each other.Languagesonly exist thanks to their impurity.”28.What goal will the team of language experts try to achieve according to Paragraph 2?A.To speed up the spread of French in the world.B.To make French influence other languages.C.To promote national brands and companies.D.To decide on some new French sports terms.29.What does the underlined word they in Paragraph 3 refer to?A.English words.C.French expressions.B.Anglicisms.D.Newly created phrases.30.Whats the result of the previous efforts to stop English from influencing other languages?A.Fruitless.B.Remarkable.C.Important.D.Unmentioned.31.What can be inferred from the last paragraph?A.English is the most popular of all.B.All languages should stay pure.C.Neveux welcomes the impurity of language.D.The exchanges between languages should be avoided.DFrom crystal-blue lakes to snow-capped mountains and thousand-year-old trees,Canadasnature is admired around the world.Now it might also be just what the doctor ordered.Anambitious new programme allows doctors to write prescriptions（处方）for free annual passes toCanadas national parks，encouraging their patients to improve their health-both mental andphysical-by taking a stroll in nature.The prescriptions are provided by PaRX,in partnership with Parks Canada.The first passeswere handed out last month,giving holders access to more than 80 national parks,historic sites andnature reserves.PaRX,a health initiative launched in 2019 by the British Columbia ParksFoundation,notes on its wehsite that spending lime in nature can lead to longer lives,increasedenergy,reduced stress and anxiety,improved heart health,less pain and beller mood.Vitamin D fromthe suns rays has proven health benefits.The organization also hopes that the preseriptions willboost investment in conservation in Canada.The initial provision covers four Canadian provinces:British Columbia,Saskatchewan,Ontarioand Manitoba.Participating doctors have only 100 annual passes to hand out for now,but PaRXhopes that the programme will be expanded.“Medical research now clearly shows the positive health benefits of connecting withnature,Steven Guilbeault,the environment minister,said.I am confident this programme willquickly show its enormous value to the well-being of patients as il continues to expand throughoutthe country.Canadas physicians are already in the habit of prescribing“nature therapy as a treatmentfor anxiety,depression,high blood pressure，immune function and insomnia（失眠）.Previously，though，they would write more general prescriptions,such as spending time in nature twice a week,for at least 20 minutes at a time.This is the first time that they have been able to equip theirpatients with tickets.32.Why does the author mention Canadas nature in Paragraph 1?A.To promote doctorsprescriptions.C.To present a health initiative program.B.To introduce Canadas natural scenery.D.To describe a current health condition.33.Which of the following is the main benefit of the prescriptions?A.Agrowth in travelling.C.Preservation in conservation.B.Development in health.D.Aboom in the economy.34.What can we infer from the last paragraph?A.“Nature therapy is no longer just in theory.B.The previous nature therapy is rejected.C.It is a common practice to offer patients park tickets.D.Patients doubt the original prescriptions.35.Which of the following can be the best title for the text?A.Nature Cures Mental DiseasesB.Doctors Order a Walk in The WildernessC.Canada Enjoys Admirable NatureD.Canadian Doctors Obtain Access to Parks第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。Worry is a natural emotion.Whether its health,a job,or a relationship,everyone hassomething that stresses them
