It is an occasion which offers all of us an opportunity to remember not only the sick, the aged, and children who have lost their parents,but also friends, workmates, relatives and neighbours whose helpfulness and kindness we have enjoyed.Over 60 years ago, when a Cleveland(克利夫兰，美国的一个城市) man noticed that some people, such as children who lost their parents and patients who lay in bed, too often felt forgotten and neglected, he developed in his mind the idea of showing them that they were remembered. He did this by giving them small gifts. With the help of his friends and neighbours, he gave those people small gifts on a Saturday in October. During the years that followed, other Clevelanders began to take part in the celebration, which came to be called “Sweetest Day”. Over time, the Sweetest Day idea of spreading cheer to the poor, the sick and children who had lost their parents was broadened to include everyone, and became an occasion for remembering others with a kind act or a small gift. Soon the idea spread to other cities all over the USA.Sweetest Day is not based on any single groups religious beliefs or on a family relationship. It is a reminder that a thoughtful word or deed enriches life and gives it meaning. Because for many people remembering takes the form of gift giving, Sweetest Day offers us the opportunity to show others that we care, in a positive way.21. Which of the following has no much relationship to Sweetest Day?A. Visiting sick people of the hospital.B. Visiting children who have lost their parents.C. Giving friends small gifts.D. Giving flowers to sweethearts.22. What do most people usually do to show their care to others according to the passage?A. They give money. B. They give gifts.C. They send regards. D.

The underlined word “neglected” in the second paragraph means “_”.A. rememberedB. hatedC. paid little or no attention to D.disappointed BWhether it is Mozart or Miley, your choice of music could determine whether you will perform well at your job. A new study suggests that listening to music in the office improves the speed and accuracy of tasks such as data entry, proof-reading and problem-solving. In an office-based experiment, 88 percent of the participants were found to produce their most accurate work when listening to music.The study also found that 81 percent of the participants completed their fastest work when music was played. And it matters what type of music you listen to. For instance,if youre doing your tax returns, then classical music, such as Mozarts music, is the most effective as it improves math skills.Listening to Jessie 1 or Justin Bieber could also improve your speeds with 58 percent of the participants completing data entry tasks faster while they were listening to pop songs.During proof reading, dance music, such as David Guetta,had the biggest positive impact with participants increasing their speed by 20 percent compared to tests undertaken with no music at all. Dance music also had a positive effect on spell-checking with a 75 percent pass rate compared to 68percent when no music was played at all.The research, undertaken by Brighton-based Mindlab International, suggests that silent offices may be the least productive. The Music Works experiment showed a positive correlation between music and productivity. Overall, it showed that when listening to music, nine out of ten people performed better, said Dr. David Lewis, chairman of Mindlab International.24.

However, when it works, it is simply beautiful.I got a rescue call from a woman in Muttontown.She had found a young owl (猫头鹰) on the ground. When arrived, I saw a 2-to 3-week-old owl. It had already beenplaced in a carrier for safety.I examined the chick (雏鸟) and it seemed fine. If I could locate the nest, I might have been able to put it back,but no luck. My next work was to construct a nest and anchor it in a tree.The homeowner was very helpful. A wire basket was found. I put some pine branches into the basket to make this nest safe and comfortable. I placed the chick in the nest, and it quickly calmed down. Now all that was needed were the parents, but they were absent. I gave the homeowner a recording of the hunger screams of owl chicks. These advertise the presence of chicks to adults; they might also encourage our chick to start calling as well. I gave the owner as much information as possible and headed home to see what news the night might bring. A nervous night to be sure, but sometimes the spirits of nature smile on us all! The homeowner called to say that the parents had responded to the recordings. I drove over and saw the chick in the nest looking healthy and active. And it was accompanied in the nest by the greatest sight of all-LUNCH! The parents had done their duty and would probably continue to do so.27.

Its humorous. D.
