Corona Heights Dog ParkOften visited by residents from all over the city because of its nearness to the Randall Museum, Corona HeightsDog Park offers pets and owners breathtaking views, after a steep hillside climb, and a fenced dog area that allows dogs to let loose without a leash（狗链）. Owners will also enjoy the playground, tennis courts and basketball courts. Dolores Dog ParkThe grounds of Dolores Park once served as camps for those who were left homeless by the 1906 earthquake, but now often visited by crowds of Mission District people. Four-legged friends can also wander about carefree off-leash while making friends with other members of the doggie community. Pine Lake Dog ParkNoteworthy for its place as a rest stop for hundreds of species of birds to fly to and from warmer climates, Pine Lake Park is also prized by city dogs and their owners for their nice hiking paths, picturesque lake suited for swimming, and an off-leash area on the parks west end that lets dogs run free. Buena Vista Dog ParkAt 146 years young, Buena Vista Park is San Franciscos oldest park. Dogs and owners with plus energy will love burning it on this parks steep paths and winding staircases. Dog owners should have good control over their dogs, as its quite easy for dogs to get separated when going through Buena Vistas many twists and turns.21.

Most of us stare at our cell phones, and refuse to make eye contact with others. We just read, chat with others online or play games online. Or maybe were using the time between stops to do our makeup, catch up on emails, or read a few chapters of a book. However, Dina Alfasi takes a very different approach.Each day she has to travel hours on buses and trains to get to her engineering job at a hospital in Israel. Rather than look at her cell phone in silence, she uses one very special way to have connection with strangers. It is portraits of the people she meets on publictransport every day that she is taking. The photographs catch those quiet and personal moments of people readying themselves for the day ahead. Some people lean (倚靠) their head against the window and go to sleep, some stare into space and have a daydream, andothers sit quietly to read their documents or books. Each picture catches one tiny moment in peoples lives, ripe with potential for your imagination. It is wonderful for her to look at someones commute ( 上 下 班 ) and make up an entire story about the rest of their daily existence, from the father travelling with a baby to the woman welcoming a change.“What inspires me very much are the little moments that happen every day,” Dina told My Modern Met. “My work is to tell stories through a single portrait, and it proves that all you need is just to look around and find those magic moments.”24. What will most people do when going to work?A. Enjoy reading a book loudly.B. Make eye contact with others.C. Have face-to-face talks with others.D. Concentrate on their mobile phones.25.

Little moments make Dina special.B. Cell phone is used to take special portraits.C. Dina takes portraits of others while commuting.D. People go to work with different ways to kill time.CTutoring a New NormalIts not piano lessons or dance classes. Nowadays, the biggest extracurricular activity in the West is going to a tutor. “I spend about 800 Canadian dollars a month on tutors. Its costly,” says Pat, a mother in Canada. However, she adds, “After finding out half my daughters class had tutors, I felt like my child was going to fall behind because everyone else seemed to be ahead.”Shelley, a mother of three, also has tutors constantly coming in and out of her home.“When I used to sit down with my children, it was hard to get them focused. I was always yelling. When I got a tutor once a week, they became focused for one entire hour and could get most of their homework done.”Tutoring isnt simply a private school phenomenon. Nor is it geared only toward lower-achieving students. In Canada alone, seven percent of high school students reported using a tutor in 2010. That increased to 15 percent in five years.Overall, parents hire tutors because they are worried that schools are not meeting their expectations, but there is also a cultural shift. A special value is placed on education in Asia, where tutoring is viewed as an extension of the school day. With a large number of Asiansemigrating（移民）to the West in recent years, their attitudes towards education have had animpact.Another reason for the growth in business is parental frustration and their packed schedules.“A lot of parents just dont have time to help their children with homework,” says Julie Diamond, president of an American tutoring company. “Others couldnt help their children after Grade Three. ”There has been a shift in the attitudes, too. “Children used to get bullied （ 欺 侮 ）forhaving a tutor，” Diamond says.“Now its becoming the norm to have one.”Children themselves dont seem to mind that they have a tutor. One parent feels surprised that so many of her childs classmates have tutors. “For the amount we pay in tuition, they should have as much extra help as they need,” she says. Still, shes now thinking of getting a tutor. Why? Her daughter has actually asked for one.28.

Asians usually place more emphasis on education than Westerners.DEven a small increase in light activity such as washing dishes, or walking around the house might help prevent an early death among older adults, researchers sayIt is important for elderly people, who might not be able to do much moderate intensity（ 强 度 ）activity, that just moving around and doing light intensity activity will have strongeffects and is beneficial, said Ulf Ekelund, who led the research.Published in the BMJ, the latest research was based on a review of eight studies involving a total of more than 36,000 people with an average age of almost 63 years. Participants were followed for five to six years; 2,149 deaths were recorded. All of the studies involved monitoring the physical activity of individuals who had activity trackers, and the studies did not rely on self-reporting, which, the experts noted, could be unreliable.For each study participants were split into four equal-sized groups, based on the total amount of time spent actively, and the risk of death assessed, taking into account factors such as age, sex, body mass index, and socioeconomic status. This was then repeated for an amount of activity at different levels of intensity. The results were analyzed together to give an overview. The team found a greater amount of activity was linked to a lower risk of death. The results held for different intensities of activity. The team said the study supported the message sit less and move more and more often.However, the study had limitations. It only looked at the situation for middle age and older adults, most of whom lived in the US or Europe, and some of the effect could be due to those people with a higher risk of death being less likely to be related to physical activity. Physical activity levels also were only measured over one period of time.Dr Gavin Sandercock, from the University of Essex, said the results suggested moving more brought bigger benefits than simply reducing the time of sitting, another factor measured in the study.This study reinforces the important message that getting the least active people to do even just a little bit more physical activity can have important public health benefits, he said.32. Which of the following may Ulf Ekelund suggest elderly people do?A. lying on the sofa reading.B. Doing a little gentle gardening,C. Going out to hike with friends,D. Playing basketball sometimes.33. What can we know about the research?A. It lasted about 8 years.B. The researchers admitted they used fake data.C. The participants didnt include younger people.D. Some participants died because of doing too much physical activity34. What is the author attitude towards the researchers conclusion?A. DoubtfulB. CriticalC. SupportiveD. Neutral35. Which of the following is closest in meaning to the underlined word reinforces in the last paragraph?A . HighlightsB. ConveysC. ExcludesD.

Caregiving can be rewarding, but it can also be challenging. 36 Women especially are at risk for the harmful health effects of caregiver stress. These health problems may include stress and anxiety. There are ways to manage caregiver stress.The first thing to do is learn ways to better help your loved one. 37 To find these classes, ask your doctor or call your local Area Agency on Aging.Take time out to meditate（冥想）or reflect. Spending 10 to 20 minutes twice a day to “clear your head” can work wonders when youre feeling overburdened.

Invite a friend over to join you. 40 Nursing a garden, watching a favorite TV show, or reading an article thatinterests you.
