He also asks the restaurant workers to tell the customer to have a great day, in case theyre not already having one.Oliver has never made a big deal out of his own generous actions until a letter was published by a news website in November. He found out that he had not just bought someone his breakfasthe had saved a life.According to the website, someone had written a letter stating that on July 18th, he was planning on committing suicide. The writer said that while he was at the drive-through window, he was planning on going home, writing a note and ending his life. When he went to pay for his coffee and muffin, however, the cashier told him that the man in the SUV in front of him had picked up the tab and told him to have a great day.“I wondered why someone would buy coffee for a stranger for no reason,” said the writer. “Why me? Why today? If I were a religious man, I would take this as a sign. This random act of kindness was directed at me on this day for a purpose.”When the writer arrived home, he couldnt hold back his tears and started to think about the simple good deed that had affected him so deeply. “I decided at that moment to change my plans for the day and do something nice for someone. I ended up helping a neighbor take groceries out of her car and into the house.”The writer says that in the months following that fateful event, he does at least one kind thing for others every day. “To the nice man in the SUV, thank you from the bottom of my heart. Please know your kind gesture has truly saved a life,” he said. “On July 18, 2017, I had the greatest day.”24. What is Olivers act of kindness every day?A. Buying others breakfast. B.

What does the underlined phrase “picked up the tab” mean in Paragraph 3?A. Paid the bill. B. Parked the car. C. Left a message. D. Ordered a drink.27. How did the writer of the letter feel after the event?A. He felt guilty. B. He felt grateful. C. He felt confused. D. He felt saddened.CYour chair is your enemy.It doesnt matter if you go running every morning, or youre a regular at the gym. If you spend most of the rest of the day sitting, you are putting yourself at increased chance of heart disease, cancers and an early death. In other words, even if you exercise energetically, sitting for long periods is bad for you. So whats wrong with sitting? One is that sitting is one of the most passive things you can do. You burn more energy by chewing gum than you do sitting still in a chair. Compared to sitting, standing in one place is hard work. To stand, you have to tense your leg muscles, and the muscles of your back and shoulders. While standing, you often change from leg to leg. All of this burns energy. For many people, weight gain is a matter of slow increase. Thus, a little more time on your feet today and tomorrow can easily make the difference between remaining thin and getting fat. So part of the problem with sitting a lot is that you dont use as much energy as those who spend more time on their feet. This makes it easier to gain weight, and makes you more likely to suffer from the health problems that fatness often brings.Some people have advanced solutions: replace your sit-down desk with a stand-up desk. Make sure that your television can only operate if you are practicing on an exercise bike. Replace your office chair with a therapy(治疗) ball: this uses more muscles and more energy than a normal chair, because you have to support your back and work to keep balanced. But whatever you choose, know this. It is clear: be careful of your chair. 28. The main purpose of writing this passage is to _. A. suggest sitting less. B. advise exercising often. C. avoid gaining weight. D. escape standing more. 29. From this passage, we know that _. A. standing burns nearly as much energy as sitting still does. B. taking exercise regularly but sitting more will do good. C. less exercise will reduce the chance of having disease. D. energy-burning activities may help you enjoy good health. 30. The underlined word “This” in Paragraph 4 refers to _. A. gaining weight. B. burning energy. C. sitting too much. D. standing more. 31. A therapy ball is mentioned in the last paragraph to _. A. tell us to walk while working in the office. B. suggest a way to settle the sitting problem. C. support our back and keep us balanced. D. provide a better cure for our backache.DA new “smart bin” could mean the end of environment-consciousfamilies spending hours sorting tins, cartons, bottles, and cardboard for recycling.The invention, which can help sort rubbish into recycling categories without needing people to operate. It is being trialed in Poland and is set to go on sale in UK within a few years.The bin, designed by start-up company Bin.E, recognizes different type of waste via a system positioned inside the bin which uses sensors, image recognition and artificial intelligence. Once waste is placed inside, the camera and sensor identify its type and place it in one of the smaller bins. Then it compresses the waste so it occupies less space.It is thought that the bin could be stocked by department stores such as John Lewis, which said it is introducing more new hi-tech recycling bins. Matt Thomas, a buyer at John Lewis, gave us the reason, “Weve recently seen a jump in specialist bins sales, with a 25 percent increase in the last few months alone. We have noticed our customers are becoming more and more focused on sustainability. In response to this demand, we are really excited to introduce a smart bin this autumn/winter season-designed to make recycling more efficient and functional for the everyday home.Bin.Es official release on the market will take place in 2018. However, at first only a larger version designed for offices will be available.The office bin will sell at 430 while customers will need to pay a 107 subscription fee for an accompanying smartphone app, which hooks them up with collection services. A spokesman at Bin.E said that home version of the bin will be cheaper and will not include a monthly payment.They added: “After the office version, we plan to create an outdoor version and later the home version. We decided to go for the outdoor version for public areas first because it is more difficult to organize an efficient waste segregating system than in our homes.”32. What do we know about about a new “smart bin” from the first paragraph?A. It works automatically. B. It has been used widely.C. It is easy to operate. D. It is very expensive.33. What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 2 refer to?A. The waste. B. The camera. C. The bin. D. The sensor.34. Why is John Lewis introducing more new hi-tech recycling bins?A. To change peoples behaviour, B. To satisfy increasing demands.C. To popularize new technology. D. To make them more famous.35. Where will the first version of new “smart bin” be used according to Bin. Es official?A. At home. B. In the supermarket. C. In the open air. D. In the office.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10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。Although problems are a part of our lives, it certainly doesnt mean that we let them rule our lives forever.
