26、 Jim worked at a radio station all his life. He was a well-known and famous radio show host. All of his friends and workmates knew him by one feature (特征): if he’s on-air, he is always wearing a suit and a tie. They laughed at him: ‘No one ever sees you, why do you dress like that?’, but he always turned that into a joke.
One day Jim was invited to appear on the TV. There was a show focusing on the oldest radio employees. For the first time the people, who only knew him by his voice, would see him. Before the recording of the show, the director came to Jim and asked:
“Usually you arrive on time, but today you are 10 minutes late. It’s not horrible, but I’m still interested, why?”
“You see,” Jim answered, “at the last moment when I was already dressed up, I noticed that I don’t have new socks. For the first time I was invited to the television, and I thought that simply wearing clean sock is not enough. It needs to be in new socks. So I needed to go to the store for socks.”
“But why do you need new socks?” The director was surprised. “You could have come without the socks, because we will be filming you only in close-up, over the waist.”
“You see, to be perfect on-air, I need to feel myself perfect in everything, starting with the shirt and finishing with the pen in my pocket. And if my socks have holes in them, or my shoes are dirty, I’m not perfect anymore.”

27、Air pollution influences our health in many ways. No air means death. Though we can’t see it, there is air around us. Air is everywhere and it gives a life to every living thing. But bad air makes people ill. In the city, there are a great many people and there are too many cars running on the road. The cars send out bad gases. There are many factories, too. From the chimneys of these factories, we get the smoke usually in black color. Every day we breathe it in and out. This makes us feel sick, when people talk about air pollution ,they are usually thinking about outdoor air pollution. But a lot of air pollution comes from indoor activities such as smoking and cooking. Indoor air pollution can hurt people’s eyes, noses and throats. So air pollution, both indoors and outdoors, can also lead to lung cancer and heart disease.
Everyone should help to fight against air pollution. In order to keep us healthy, we have to go out to the countryside to breathe more fresh air. Or we can climb up hills to get more fresh air.

28、Tips for avoiding traffic jams
The radio has more than just music. Check the local news station for the latest traffic report. Or go online and check traffic cameras before you set out. If there is a jam, you’ll be prepared and can try another route.
Take the road less travelled. Although highways may be the most direct route, back (偏僻的) roads can be much less crowded, which can save you from the frustration of the stopandgo traffic.
Rush hour isn’t just a lovely nickname. It means the morning and afternoon traffic lasts for several hours, but they’re still called “rush hour” for a reason — everyone’s on the road and in a hurry to get somewhere. Treat rush hour like bad weather — if you don’t have to go anywhere, stay off the roads.
Tips for those unavoidable traffic jams
Don’t break the law. You’ve gone 30 feet in 30 minutes and all of a sudden you see people using the shoulders (紧急停车道). Don’t behave like them. Not only is this illegal, but also there’s a good chance they’ll get caught or cause even more problems.
Pay extra attention to zigzaggers (Z字形行进者). When some people are anxious, they may start changing lanes (车道) every 5 seconds or cut you off. Keep checking your windows and mirrors for these lane changers.
Look for an escape. If it is possible to exit the road safely, do it. Use a GPS unit, and you can change your route midtrip if needed.
Be courteous. Good manners could help you avoid a possible accident. Allow people in from a lane that is ending. Speeding up to keep them out increases your chances of an accident.
【1】To avoid traffic jams, we are advised to do the following EXCEPT .
A.getting traffic news before leaving
B.changing lanes frequently
C.avoiding rush hours
D.choosing back roads
【2】What should we do when there are zigzaggers?
A.Sound the horn loudly.
B.Stop and let them go first.
C.Keep checking the mirrors.
D.Drive quickly to keep them out.
【3】In which part of a magazine can this passage be found?
A.Entertainment.
B.Advertisement.
C.Market.
D.Life.
29、Running on the beach can certainly be a good thing. It's completely different from running on the pavement,a track or trails with soft surfaces.
For starters,sand can be a challenge because it has an uneven(不平的)surface and constantly moves under your feet. As you push off,you're going to lose some of your push as the sand moves. So,you're not going to be able to push yourself forward as you would on a track or pavement!But this unevenness has an upside: It gives your body an extra workout,forcing you to exercise muscles that don't get as much use during runs on firm surfaces.
You also might feel painful afterward because beaches tend to slope(倾斜)downward,toward the water. If you're going for a long run on the beach,you might notice that one side of your body-including your ankle,leg or knee-might feel more painful because you're putting more pressure on it due to the slope.
Some beach runners tend to run barefoot. However,if you're not used to barefoot running,start slowly and run short distances at first. That's because running barefoot uses different muscles than running with shoes does,and it's important to strengthen these muscles and adapt your feet.
Despite these challenges,running on sand can be a smart choice for athletes because running on it can decrease the bad influence on your body during high-intensity workouts. This could potentially lead to less muscle damage and less pain. Women had less myoglobin(肌红蛋白)--- a protein that can be a sign of muscle pain-in their blood after running on the sand than they did after running on grass. This suggests running on softer ground surfaces,such as sand,may reduce muscle damage.
【1】What makes running on sand difficult for starters?
A.The smooth surface.
B.The moving surface.
C.The sloping surface.
D.The hard surface.
【2】Which of the following best explains “upside” underlined in paragraph 2?
A.Advantage.
B.Reason.
C.Surprise.
D.Challenge.
【3】What should you avoid when trying running barefoot?
A.Starting slowly.
B.Adapting your feet.
C.Developing some muscles.
D.Running long distances.
【4】What is the benefit of running on sand to women?
A.Having no muscle damage.
B.Becoming much healthier.
C.Feeling less painful.
D.Having a good feeling.
