Desiree was only four when she lost her Dad. Instead of gradually adjusting to his death, Desiree refused to accept it and even wanted to die so as to be with her father. Concerned about her daughter, Rhonda turned to her mother, Trish Moore, for help.
November 8 of 1993 would have been Ken's 29th birthday. So Trish advised Desiree to send her father a card. Desiree's eyes lit up as she dictated a letter, "Happy birthday, Daddy. I love you and miss you. I hope you get this and can write to me on my birthday." Trish wrote the message and their address on a small piece of paper and tied it to the end of the string on a balloon with a drawing of the Little Mermaid(美人鱼).Finally, Desiree released the balloon.
On November 12 in eastern Canada, Wade MacKinnon was duck-hunting. Suddenly something in the bushes caught his eye. Curious, he approached to find a silver balloon. The letter finished with a mailing address in Live Oak, California. The balloon traveled 3,000 miles. What a coincidence! A Little Mermaid balloon landed at Mermaid Lake. To help Desiree, the MacKinnons wrote her a letter with a birthday card and an adaptation of The Little Mermaid.
The MacKinnons' package arrived later on Desiree's birthday. The letter read, "Happy birthday from your daddy. You must be wondering who we are. Well, it all started There are no stores in heaven, so your daddy picked us to do the shopping. We know your daddy loves you very much and wants you to be happy and not sad. Lots of love, the MacKinnons. "
Tears in eyes, Desiree said, "I knew Daddy would find a way not to forget me." Next, Trish began to read the Little Mermaid to her, in which the mermaid was finally carried away by angels. "The mermaid goes to heaven just like Daddy!” Desiree said with delight. She understood then her father was with her always.

We have heard some interesting ways that 5G wireless technology might change our lives in the, future.
5G short for the 5th generation mobile communication technology, promises Internet speeds between 50 to 100 times faster than current 4G systems. While 5G is set to be used in some limited areas of America this year, much of the world is not expected to receive widely available service until 2023.
One project in Britain, however, is already testing this superfast technology on an unlikely group of Internet users-cows. The project was developed by American technology company Cisco Systems. It also receives money from the British government Cisco says the program seeks to explore the future of 5G connectivity in rural areas around the world.
Testing areas were set up at farms in. three rural areas of England. The cows are equipped with 5G-connected devices(装置)that link up to a robotic milking system, which uses sensors and machine learning to fully automate the process. System designers say technology takes over after a cow feels ready to be milked and walks toward an automatic gate. The device is designed to recognize each individual cow. It then positions equipment to the right body position for milking. During the process, machines release food for the cow as a reward.
Other 5G technology tools include automated brushes that turn on when the cow rubs up against them. Sensors also control the amount of light to the cows' living areas depending on the weather. And, an automatic feeding system makes sure the animals always get enough to eat.
Duncan Forbes, head of the project, told Reuters that the project shows the farm's cow operations can be greatly improved with 5G technology and that the experiment provides strong evidence that 5G technology can be widely used in the future, not just on farms in Britain, but in rural communities across the world.
28. What is the purpose of Cisco Systems' program?
A. To win financial support from British government.
B. To test the effects of 5G technology on animals.
C. To promote its technological development in Britain.
D. To expand the future use of 5G in rural communities.
29. What does the underlined word "It's in Paragraph 3 refer to?
A. The project.
B. The company.
C. The technology.
D. The group.
30. What can we learn about 5G according to the text?
A. It is no worse than 4G in terms of speed.
B. It is already widely available in the world.
C. It enables cows to control their own milking.
D. It is based on sensors and machine learning.
31. In which section of a newspaper may this text appear?
A. Entertainment.
B. Lifestyle.
C. Education.
D. Technology.
D
Does the amount of cash in a lost wallet influence how likely a person is to return it? Classical economic theories suggest that the greater the appeal, the less likely we are to be honest-but a new study turns the idea on its head, finding altruism(利他主义)，and a powerful hate for viewing oneself as a "thief' outweigh the financial attraction.
A team of researchers conducted a huge experiment concerning 355 cities in 40 countries. More than 17,000 identical wallets were dropped off at public places, each
containing a grocery list, a key, and three business cards in the local language using made-up names and an email address. Some had no money while others contained the equivalent(等值)of $13.45.
According to the research, people on average returned 40% of wallets with no money in them but 51 % with money. It also shows extreme differences between countries. But although rates of people's honesty varied greatly from country to country, one thing remained remarkably constant: wallets with money, as opposed to no money, raised reporting rates.
In the US, the UK and Poland, they repeated the experiment with even more money: $94.15, which increased reporting rates by an average of 11 % compared to the smaller amount. They also found that having a key expanded reporting rates by 9.2%.
The findings, which run counter to a fundamental principle of classical economics, suggest honesty, altruism and self-image can sometimes be more influential than economic self-interest.
A purely economic approach to behavior suggests people would keep the wallets with the larger amounts of money due to the increased financial reward, but economics often doesn't account for a person's sense of honesty or self-image, according to behavioral scientists. Altruism also influenced the findings, the researchers say. Since the key is valuable to the owner but not the finder, this pointed toward an altruism concern in addition to the cost of negatively updating one's self image.
32. What does the author intend to do in Paragraph 2?
A. Introduce a new topic for discussion.
B. Add some background information.
C. Describe a widely conducted experiment.
D. Provide the research results for the readers.
33. What's the average reporting rate of a wallet with $94.15 inside?
A. 11%.
B. 20.2%.
C. 51%.
D. 62%.
34.What does the underlined phrase "run counter to" in Paragraph 5 mean?
A. Go against.
B. Account for.
C. Agree with.
D. Focus on.
35. What's the main idea of the text?
A. Classical economic theories have already been out of date.
B. People are more likely to return a lost wallet with more cash.
C. An experiment conducted worldwide proves people's altruism.
D. Rates of people's honesty vary greatly from country to country.

M: Yes, I usually lift weights. This helps me build muscle strength. Besides, I am fond of boxing because it helps me burn off stress and reduce anxiety.
W: Oh yeah, those lies. I’ll never buy this story. Actually, a study suggests using
a fitness tracker can record and encourage you to take 10,000 steps a day. Your
immediate action matters. Not your words!
M: 10000 steps? That is too much. Will a quarter as much as that help?
W: Of course. Clay Marsh from Ohio State University says “Any amount of activity will do. As long as you stick to it, you will benefit.”
M: OK. I will start walking tomorrow.

Here is a piece of news for deer lovers. Mary, an 18-year-old senior at Nixon High School, worked out a noise to drive the deer away. A deer jumped into the road and hit her uncle’s truck. The accident inspired her to look for a deer-defensive measure.
According to the data from a science project, deer and humans hear the world differently. People sense sounds in the range of 20 to 20,000 hertz. Deer live life a little higher. They can hear between about 250 and 30,000 hertz. That means deer can hear sounds well above what people can sense.
For her experiments, Mary found a clearing, a small field where she set up a speaker and a remote control. When it sent out a 14,000-hertz sound, it didn’t send the deer fleeing. She increased the sound gradually, and when the speaker broadcast 25,000 hertz, the deer just walked away.
The teen expects her w arning “whistle” to be broadcast from s peakers along the sides of a highway. These will warn the deer to stay away — even when there is no car in sight. “It’s like a stoplight for animals,” she says. That way it m ay keep deer off the road.

It includes airfare ($225), hotel ($170), dining out ($116) and dressing up ($95) and the gift. If you have weddings to attend this year, here are some tips for you to avoid breaking the bank. 1. Book flights in advance The moment you decide to attend a wedding is the time to check flight prices at the best time. Plane fares are higher in the summer, especially in July and August. Booking in advance will save you money, as will watch for sales on lower-cost carriers like JetBlue and Frontier. You can check Google Flights for a calendar of prices showing the cheapest days to fly from apps like Hopper to get real-time alerts when a fare is at its lowest price point. 2. Don't blow your budget on the gift If you've got the money, an expensive gift is lovely. But there's no need to take out loans to prove your love for the happy couple. Skip an expensive necklace by giving (an appropriate amount of) cash instead. To save on the gift, consider making one: A photo album or scrapbook of memories with the bride and groom shows how much you care. You could also share the gift with other guest(s) or even make gifts with DIY ideas by yourself to save money. 3. Use old dresses and suits You don't always have to be on a new dress for a wedding. While men have the option of repeating their suits, women are more likely to spend money on new clothes for the special occasion. But before you take out your wallet, consider reinventing something already in your
