2012 was one of the hardest years I have ever known because I lost my husband. For several months, I found it hard to write, think, eat or take pleasure in anything; I could not imagine what it would be like to feel happy again; I could not find any hope or purpose.
I cannot remember the reason why one Monday morning I decided to go to a hot yoga studio in east London, where I signed up for a 30 day trial. I do not remember the class or how much I sweated. What I do know is that I started going to hot yoga every day. Sometimes, when my head felt as if it might collapse (崩溃), I went twice a day. I skipped parties, left social events and got up early to attend. There was something about the hot room that held me together, stopping all the dark thoughts inside my mind.
I chose the Bikram method of hot yoga:It has a set of 26 postures and two breathing exercises performed in heat over a period of 90 minutes. This form of yoga was founded by Bikram Choudhury. In 2015, he failed in an attempt to copyright (取得版权) his method. Many practitioners (从业人员) believe that Bikram is not real yoga. Some question the limitations of just 26 postures. Others wonder why the class has to be performed before a wall of mirrors. However, something in those 26 postures freed my mind, dragged me out of my thoughts and back into the present. I was able to focus on how my body behaved differently each day.
24.What happened to the author in 2012

26.How did yoga help the author
A.It helped her make money. B.It helped her feel more focused.
C.It helped her get to know its founder. D.It helped her practice her performance skills.
27.Where is this text most likely from
A.A health magazine. B.A travel brochure.
C.A research paper. D.Science fiction.

India is trying to bring electricity to hundreds of millions of its citizens who live off the grid (输电网). And it's trying to ensure that the power is clean and renewable.
Frontier Markets is helping to achieve both those goals in the western desert state of Rajasthan, selling solar powered products to hundreds of villages.The company has achieved success by turning its customers into salespeople.
The company employs women to sell products like lamps, stoves, and even TVs that run on solar power through a program called Solar Sahelis (Solar Friends).Each woman is in charge of selling products to hundreds of village households.The company hopes to give women a source of employment and income.
The government has made electrification in villages a big priority (当务之急), announcing last year that “100% of the country's villages now have power”.But the government considers a village electrified if just 10% of its houses are on the grid, meaning over 200 million people still don't have electricity.The government has also set goals to increase solar energy capacity, and it has succeeded in going from less than four gigawatts (十亿瓦特) in 2015 to nearly 30 gigawatts—about 8% of India's total energy capability.The government wants to increase that to 100 gigawatts by 2022.
The 3,000 women that Frontier Markets CEO Ajaita Shah employs have helped to provide energy to more than half a million village houses in Rajasthan.“As India starts growing, women are still being left behind,” Shah said.“It's really important for us to continuously support women's skills and their education to be able to catch up.” Frontier Markets' yearly income has gone from around $300,000 in 2015 to nearly $2.7 million this year, and the company has partnered with big global names like Philips and Unilever.
“We are very proud of how we've been able to succeed with Frontier Markets,” Shah said.“It's part of my task to make sure we understand that investing (投资) in women is not just a success story but smart business and the key to ending poverty.”
28.What is the purpose of Frontier Markets
A.To educate salespeople. B.To meet Indians' material needs.
C.To make Indian villages clean and green. D.To bring clean energy to Indian villages.
29.Where can you find out about the government's measures to achieve its goal
A.In Paragraph 2. B.In Paragraph 3. C.In Paragraph 4. D.In Paragraph 5.
30.What can be inferred about Frontier Markets
A.It is a little out of date. B.It is progressing rapidly.
C.It lacks the government's support. D.It encourages villagers' creativity.
31.What kind of feeling is expressed in the last paragraph
A.Regret. B.Curiosity. C.Admiration. D.Excitement.
D
In a new study, researchers analyzed information from more than 18,000 people who provided blood samples. Participants reported whether they exercised, regularly, and if so, what type of exercises they typically did. The researchers then scanned participants, blood, looking for genes (基因) that are tied to an increased risk of obesity (肥胖). Next, the researchers examined whether certain exercises seemed to balance this risk.
Overall, people who reported doing any type of regular exercises tended to have a lower BMI (体重指数) than those who didn't. This was true even among people who were genetically easy to become overweight. But one exercise stood out as the one with the strongest anti obesity effect: jogging. Participants with obesity genes who jogged tended to have a lower BMI than people with similar genetic risk who did not jog.
But for those who loathe jogging, fear not:Five other types of exercises were also tied to a lower BMI among individuals at risk for obesity. These included mountain climbing, ballroom dancing and walking. The benefits of these exercises were the biggest among those with the greatest genetic risk of obesity.
Interestingly, several other types of exercises failed to counteract the genetic risk of obesity. These included cycling, stretching exercises and swimming. The findings don't mean that these latter exercises can't help with weight control. It's just that they didn't seem to counteract the genetic tendency to gain weight.
There could be several reasons for this. The researchers noted that, for the average Joe or Jane, cycling and stretching exercises tend to require less energy than the exercises that were tied to a lower obesity risk. In addition, exercising in water, as happens with swimming, may increase appetite.
32.What does the underlined word “loathe” in the third paragraph mean
A.Dislike. B.Display. C.Disturb. D.Discourage.
33.Which exercise has the least effect on balancing obesity genes
A.Mountain climbing. B.Ballroom dancing. C.Running slowly. D.Riding a bicycle.
34.What does the author indicate in the last paragraph
A.Swimming doesn't help one lose weight.
B.Diving may make a person eat more food.
C.Average people put less energy into exercises.
D.Stretching exercises will become popular.
35.Which of the following is the best title
A.Jogging Less Leads to Genetic Obesity
B.Regular Exercises Tend to Lower BMI
C.Whether Exercises Balance Risks of Obesity Genes
D.Genes Are Very Important for People's Weight Control

阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
I had a neighbor who had a sick son in my community. The little boy almost thought of himself as the most unfortunate in the world because a muscle disease made him weak and clumsy. Though he didn't look any different from other people, he often dropped things and bumped into furniture and easily got out of breath after running a short way. He seldom played with his classmates, so he felt lonely; and in class when the teacher asked him to answer questions, he always lowered his head without a word. His mother was very worried about the boy.
One spring, the boy's mother bought some saplings (树苗) from the market. She wanted to plant them in the front of the house. She told her children to plant a sapling each person. The mother said to her three children, “Whose seedling grows best, I will buy him or her a favorite gift.” The boy also wanted to get his mother's gift. But seeing his brothers and sisters carrying water to water the trees happily, anyhow, an idea hit him:he hoped the tree he planted would die soon. So watering it once or twice, he never attended to it.
A few days later, when the little boy went to see his tree again, he was surprised to find it grew some fresh leaves instead of withering (枯萎), and compared with the trees of his brother and sister, his appeared greener and more vital. He wondered what on earth had happened. As expected, his mother kept her promise, bought the little boy his favorite gift and said to him, “From the tree you plant, you will become an outstanding botanist (植物学家) when you grow up.”
Since then, the little boy slowly became optimistic. One day, the little boy lay on the bed but couldn't sleep. Looking at the bright moonlight outside the window, he suddenly recalled what the biology teacher once said, plants generally grow at night.
注意:1.续写词数应为150左右;

“Why not go to see the tree?” he thought to himself. ________________________________________________________________________

Earthquakes are something that most people fear.There are some places which have few or no earthquakes.Most places in the world,however,have them regularly.Some places,like Iran and Guatemala have them regularly.Countries that have a lot of earthquakes are usually quite mountainous.
The most talked about earthquake in the United States was in San Francisco in 1906.Over 500 people died in it.The strongest one in North America was in 1964.It happened in Alaska.
Earthquakes are not the only acts of nature that people fear.Floods and tidal waves also cause people to be afraid.So do bad storms like typhoons and cyclones.Sometimes these things cause lots of deaths.In 1970,cyclone and tidal wave killed over 200,000 in Pakistan.
These kinds of things made people afraid and they are very dangerous.But they do not worry people as much as earthquakes,especially in the modern times.The reason is that we often know they are coming,we have some warning.So far,however,no sure way is known to predict an earthquake.When one comes,it is a surprise.People cannot prepare for it.
