Diane Yane always had a close relationship with her grandfather, so when he died in her twenties, the
loss hit her hard. Shortly after that, Yane left her job to work with seniors. “I was hired as an activities
director at a senior living center, and I took to it like a fish to water,” she recalls. “I started developing
relationships with the seniors there. It was like having 200 new grandparents.”
Yane has been interacting with seniors ever since, from working at a care center to providing in-home
care for private clients. Now, two decades later, she has opened a social club for adults who are 55 and
older-Elder Pep Day Club & Spa(水疗中心), “I wanted to create a space for seniors interested in meeting
other people, staying active and taking classes,” Yane says.
Members come in for different activities, including chair yoga, Spanish classes, indoor bowling, card
and board games, creative writing, and more, and spa treatments or just to hang out. Later this year, Yane
plans to open the second half of the space as a private spa.
In her years of professional experience with older adults, Yane has seen the extraordinary benefits of
social interaction and human touch. According to a study by the American College of Health Care
Administrators, touch is the most important of our senses, yet it is often overlooked. “Skin is the body’s
largest organ and sends positive and negative signals to the brain. Touch deprivation（匮乏）, also known
as touch starvation, leads to a range of emotional and physical problems,” it adds.
“I know how important it is for seniors to feel cared for getting their hair and nails done and receiving
massage therapy( 按 摩 疗法 ),” Yane says, “but what’s really close to my heart is a private room with a
walk-in bathtub. At assisted living facilities, many seniors only have access to a shower, where they sit on
a bench and their caregiver sprays them with water. There’s not a lot of dignity or joy in that. I want to give
seniors back the luxury of submerging(使浸没)their bodies in a warm bath.”
24．What can we learn about Diane Yane from the first paragraph?
A．She wanted to be free like fish. B．She liked working with seniors.
C．She was bad at caring for people. D．She followed her grandfather’s footsteps.
25．What can seniors do at Diane Yane’s club?
A．Avoid any social interaction. B．Get free medical treatment.
C．Enjoy some leisure activities. D．Study with young members.
26．Why is a study mentioned in paragraph 4?
A．To prove the importance of social interaction. B ．To show the necessity of social clubs for
seniors．
C. To tell the working principle of the human body.
D. To offer scientific support for Yane’s private spa.
27．What does the underlined word “that” in the last paragraph refer to?
A．Walking into a private bathtub. B．Taking an assisted shower.
C．Spraying water for pleasure. D．Receiving massage therapy.
C
This summer we witnessed interview teams at the North Pole wearing short sleeve shirts due to the
warm weather. A study published on Aug 29 revealed more concerning issues in the supposedly coldest
area of the world. Zombie ice from a massive Greenland ice sheet was confirmed to be melting, which
would eventually raise global sea levels by at least 10 inches (27 centimeters) on its own, reported
Associated Press (AP).
Zombie ice is the kind of ice that is still attached to thicker areas of ice, but is no longer getting fed by
larger glaciers. Since glaciers are getting less snow to complement the amount of ice melted, once the
zombie ice is melted, it cannot be re-formed.
Scientists decided to look at the balance of the ice. In perfect equilibrium( 平 衡 ), snow in the
mountains of Greenland flows down and thickens the sides of glaciers, balancing out what’s molting on the
edges, according to AP. But in the last few decades, there is less refill and more melting, creating an
imbalance.
Study co-author William Colgan at the Geological Survey of Denmark and Greenland told AP that 3.3
percent of Greenland’s total ice volume will melt eventually. “Starving would be a good phrase for what’s
happening to the ice,” Colgan added.
With a great number of natural resources buried under the earth, areas of melted ice revealed treasures
that attracted the world’s richest men. According to CNN, in early August, there was a “treasure hunt” in
Greenland. Billionaires, including Bill Gates and others, financially backed KoBold Metals, a US-based
mineral exploration company, to explore the rare metals under the glaciers in Greenland. The company told
CNN that since there were enough minerals to power hundreds of millions of electric vehicles the critical
resource is capable of powering the green energy transition.
While investors are taking advantage of global warming , experts express their concerns that the
mineral exploration is likely to worsen the local environment, draining up the world’s resources at a faster
rate.
28．What do we know about zombie ice?
A．It will melt away from the ice sheet. B．It’s independent from large glaciers.
C．It has increased sea levels by up to 10 inches. D．It’s complemented by nearby natural resources.
29．What does Paragraph 2 mainly talk about?
A．What larger glaciers exactly are. B．Why melted zombie ce can’t be re-formed.
C．What the meliting of zombie ice can lead to. D．How zombie ice functions in the ecosystem.
30．What’s the experts’ attitude toward the “treasure hunt” in Greenland?
A．Supportive. B．Tolerant. C．Worried. D．Indifferent.
31．What’s the main purpose of the article?
A．To comment on the “treasure hunt”. B．To report on the melting zombie ice.
C．To show the green energy transition. D．To introduce the mineral exploration.
D
People who frequently eat fruit are more likely to report greater positive mental wellbeing and are less
likely to report symptoms of depression than those who do not, according to new research from the College
of Health and Life Sciences, Aston University. The team also found that people who eat savoury ( 咸味的)
snacks such as crisps (薯片), which are low in nutrients, are more likely to report greater levels of anxiety.
Published in the British Journal of Nutrition, the study surveyed 428 adults from across the UK and
looked at the relationship between their consumption of fruit, vegetables, sweet and savoury snacks, and
their psychological health. The research found that both nutrient-rich fruit and nutrient-poor savoury
snacks appeared to be linked to psychological health. They also found that there was no direct association
between eating vegetables and psychological health. Based on the survey, the more often people ate fruit,
the lower they scored for depression and the higher for mental wellbeing, independent of the overall
quantity of fruit intake. By contrast, there was no link between these everyday memory lapses ( 差错) and
fruit and vegetables intake or sweet snacks, suggesting a unique relationship between these nutrient-poor
savoury snacks, everyday mental lapses, and psychological health.
Lead author, PhD student Nicola-Jayne Tuck commented, “Very little is known about how diet may
affect mental health and wellbeing, and while we did not directly examine causality here, our findings
could suggest that frequently snacking on nutrient-poor savoury foods may increase everyday mental
lapses, which in turn reduces psychological health.”
“It is possible that changing what we snack on could be a really simple way to improve our mental
wellbeing. Conversely, it is also possible that the forthcoming restriction of processed snacks at checkouts,
due to come in this October, could not only improve the country’s physical health, but mental health too.”
“Overall, it’s definitely worth trying to get into the habit of reaching for the fruit bowl.”
32．Which may lead to greater level of anxiety?
A．Savoury snacks B．Fruit C．Vegetables D．Grain
33．What can we learn from paragraph 2?
A．Rich fruit appears not to be linked to psychological health.
B．The more fruit people eat, the lower they score for depression.
C．There is a relation between the nutrient-poor snacks and mental health.
D．There is a direct link between eating vegetables and psychological health.
34．What does the underlined word “causality” in paragraph 3 refer to?
A．The relation between fruit and vegetables. B．The relation between exercise and health.
C．The relation between snacks and mental health.
D．The relation between diet and mental health and wellbeing
35．Which is the most suitable title for the text?
A．Eating habits can prevent disease. B．Eating unhealthy snacks often is harmful to health.
C．Eating vegetables often can improve mental health.
D．Eating fruit often may contribute to mental health.

feel the difference. When we first got to Finland, we were freezing. But after a couple of minutes jumping
around, we felt less cold.

minutes. Technology sucks the life out of us, and takes our souls in 54 for the convenience of not having

I simply do not 55 the idea that we aren’t fully whole due to our phones, just because we can talk to
