"I looked like an old mansaid Owen, who built a successful career on Wall Street. Even worse, he felt like an old man.He was about 25 pounds overweight and he had chronic trouble with his back,knees,andshoulders.But instead of giving in to age,Owen decided to set an ambitious five-year goakHewanted to be pain-free,and he decided the way to get there was through exercise-even thoughat the time he couldn't do a single push-up.Owen began his new exercise plan by walking,though he started huffing and puffing afterfive minutes.But that didn't discourage him. He kept at the walks every day, along with somestretching.Once he had those basics down, he started weight lifting and hired a personal trainerto teach him and design a routine he could follow on his own. The last piece was finding otheractivities he enjoyed, which turned out to be cycling and swimming.In less than five years,Owen was able to do three sets of 50 push-ups each and walk formiles each day. And yes, he was free of aches and pains. "Aging well is only about 20 to 25percent genes, and the rest is lifestyle/5 he says.Owen used his experience to write a book called Just Move!

"Think of it as movement, not exercise, just get started,“ he says. "Thekey is slow and steady progress/7Now 81 and retired, Owen exercises an hour a day, six days a week.

Yet, is there any chance that one of these secret placescould be real? No one has ever found one, but according to some experts on elephant behaviour,it*s not unthinkable that such a place could exist Realistically, elephants could die massively inone place for any number of reasons. Natural disasters such as lightning strikes,localizedflooding,or food(water) - shortages drive starving elephants to gather in places where findingfood is easier. These animals are already fragile and many of them may die in the same area.But, does that mean that the conscious practice of "elephant graveyards, by the animals ispurely mythical? Perhaps not. Researchers from the UK have recently proved that elephantsshow strong interest and emotion if they come across the remains of other elephants. Theirbehavior suggeststhat they recognize their most close relatives. Whole families can spend hoursor even days attending the bones of a herd member.Few species other than humans demonstrate the same type of awareness in death of theirown kind. Chimpanzees have been known to obey certain rituals （仪式）around their dead andwill only abandon a body of a relative once it begins to deanmpose. Lions have also been knownto show emotions to dead family members by sniffing or licking the body prior to devouring （吞食）it. This idea lends another origin of the elephant graveyard: a place where elephants gather tomourn the bones of their dead.28 .The author mentions The Lion King in the beginning toA.introduce the topicB.provide examplesC.recall childhood memoriesD.recommend a film29 .What is Paragraph 2 mainly about?A.Whether the elephant graveyard exists.B.

When dying elephants left their groups.D.Why some elephants die in the same place.30 .The underlined word “decompose” probably means ”A.shrinkB.disappearC.swell upD.break down31 .What does the author want to prove by the examples of chimpanzees and lions?A.They are aware of death.B.They follow some rituals.C.They recognize their relatives.D.They are interested in the remains.DGenerally speaking, respect is something that is earned. One earns another's respect byvoluntarily doing things like taking that person's feelings, needs and thoughts into consideration.Respect seems to be like a boomerang in the sense that you must send it out before it willcome back to you. Respect cannot be demanded or forced, though sometimes people mistakenlybelieve that it can, as discussed below.Since a baby has no concept of respect, and feels only its own needs when it is first bom, itseems the only successful way to teach a child what respect is, is to earn the respect of the childas they slowly grow into a thinking human being.The way this is done is first of all by attending to the
