R.B“I was dead for 67 minutes. Its a miracle that Im here today.” Those are the words of Bruce Richardson, who survived a cardiac arrest (心脏骤停) in July 2016 thanks to the quick actions of his friends and the first responders who refused to give up.It was an early summer morning, a typical Saturday. Bruce volunteered as usual in the community center. “I had no symptoms that there was any problem. It was a completely normal morning; I felt fine,” he shared. “I was visiting with friends. Then, I passed out. What happened next I know from what others have told me.”Bruces friend, Jack, had learned how to perform CPR, and he quickly began chest compressions. Another friend, Doug, dialed 911 and the operator walked him through compressions until first responders arrived. Once the ambulance arrived, the paramedics tried five times to restart Bruces heart with an AED. By this time, Bruce had been without a heartbeat for over 30 minutes, often when time of death is called. On the phone with an emergency room doctor. one of the paramedics was instructed to try two AEDs simultaneously (同时). It worked; Bruces heart began to beat again. Incredibly, he awoke the next day and was able to communicate. After a week, Bruce made a full recovery and left the hospital.Since Bruces cardiac arrest, he has since been able to resume a normal life with some differences. He now is a passionate CPR advocate. He has shared his story in the news, and last year he was a guest speaker at the Associations Indianapolis Heart & Stroke Ball to encourage people to spread the message of CPR.

Across the Yorkshire Dales, total tree cover amounts to just five per cent, the Woodland Trust has said, with ancient woodland making up just one per cent of that cover.The trust wants to raise £8 million for a decades-long program that will see a restored forest providing habitats for threatened species such as woodland birds and black grouse. Planted trees will be mostly native broadleaved species such as alder, silver birch, down birch, willow, aspen, rowan, hawthorn and blackthorn, with montane species on the higher slopes.Al Nash, who is heading the project for the Woodland Trust, said, “I love the Dales but the one thing it lacks in many areas is an abundance (丰富性) of trees. Here we will be giving nature and biodiversity a big boost and creating a rich variety of habitats. It is a rare opportunity to create a sizeable wildlife conservation area for the north of England. Its clearly a wonderful opportunity to create something real that can be seen and touched in the Yorkshire Dales for the fight against climate change.”The first stage of planting has already begun with funding from the White Rose Forest, DEFRA and corporate donors. More trees than needed will be planted as not all will survive in the windswept, rainy upland valley. They will be arranged at random and without plastic guards to help stimulate natural forest growth, the trust said.28. How does the author illustrate the problem of the woodland loss?A. By providing data.B. By listing examples.C. By making comments.D. By giving explanations.29. What is the message conveyed in paragraph 4?A. The trend of global warming.B.

To guarantee a higher survival rate of trees.C. To strengthen defence against wind and rain.D. To sustain the balance between varieties of trees.31. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?A. A Breakthrough Made in Forest Growth.B. Funds Being Raised to Plant Trees in England.C. Conservationists Taking Action to Help England.D. Englands Largest Native Woodland to Be Created.DIts not often that people line up for an exhibition on a weekday, but thats exactly whats happening at the China Academy of Art Museum, where 13 top national ink-wash paintings from various museums are on display until April 16. This is an unparalleled opportunity for museum-goers.The highlight of the exhibition is Huang Gongwangs surviving work Dwelling in the Fuchun Mountains, which is considered one of the top artistic paintings in China. Inspired by the still water and poetic views along Hangzhous Fuchun River, Huang painted the masterpiece between 1348 and 1350. It was literally burned into two pieces during the reign of Emperor Shunzhi (1644-1661) in the Qing Dynasty (1644-1911).Its last keeper, Wu Hongyu, loved the painting so much that he ordered it to be burned so he could take it to the afterlife when he died.

In 2011, the first section of the painting was loaned to the Palace Museum in Taipei where the two pieces were reunited for the first time since their separation over three and a half centuries ago. Since then, Sheng Shan Tu has rarely been shown to the public. Visitors are highly recommended to seize the rare opportunity to see this masterpiece.Among the 13 top masterpieces, 10 pieces are painted in the Song Dynasty (960-1279) As the peak of ancient Chinese art, Song ink-wash paintings are considered the typical representative of traditional aesthetics (美学). Another highlight comes from Ma Yuan and Xia Gui. In their paintings, people can also be seen drinking tea, playing Chinese instruments. or entertaining friends.
