When the York, Pennsylvania, second-grader noticed that some of his schoolmates didnt have anyone to play with during the break time, he came up with a way to help them. He suggested having something called a “buddy bench” put in on his schools playground.A buddy bench is a special bench where students can sit if they are feeling bored or lonely. Its usually brightly colored with “BUDDY BENCH” in big letters. Other students can then go to the bench and ask them if they would like to play or talk.“We show we care about others when we ask others to play,” Christian told reporters.Christian first learned about buddy benches when his family was considering moving to Germany. He saw a buddy bench in a handbook for a German school and thought it would be a great way to fight loneliness on the playground at his own school, Roundtown Elementary School.Christian told Roundtowns headteacher, Matthew Miller, about his idea at the end of last school year. Miller immediately decided to get a buddy bench. He had Christian pick out its style and bright colors.“I was the first person who got to sit on the bench when it arrived at Roundtown,” says Christian. He hopes the bench will help “grow our dream circle of friends”.25. Christian Bucks suggested having a buddy bench to help _.A. his teachers B. his studentsC. his parents D. his schoolmates26.

Throw on some running shoes and comfortable clothes and go for a run.One of the coolest things about the sport of running is that you dont need expensive equipment (装备). All you need is a good pair of running shoes and a safe environment. But just because you dont need much equipment dont be fooled into thinking the sport of running is easy. No one wakes up and decides to run a marathon without training.Running makes your heart, lungs, and muscles stronger. It makes you know more about your body. Running also gives you energy by increasing your oxygen (氧气) intake, so you dont get sick easily. It can even help you keep your mind on school work because exercise helps you to think more clearly.How do you take part in the sport if you dont know much about it? Most schools offer cross-country and track programs, but there are also running clubs open to all ages. A simple Internet search can help you find some in your area. The programs show you how running can offer competition or just be for fun. They also teach runners to set realistic goals and take care of their bodies.Runners have great respect for each other because they know how difficult the sport can be. If you go to a race, youll see people cheering for all the runners, from the first place finisher to the last place finisher. Running isnt always about how fast you are or how far youre going. Its about getting out there and doing it. Taking part is more important than competition, and effort is recognized over gift.If youre looking for more than just a sport, running may be the perfect choice for you.28. Which of the following is true?A. Running helps you win a marathon.B. Running helps you improve your study.C. Running helps you think more about yourself.D.
