Last summer, I had a valuable experience working like a volunteer in the community hospital. I worked from July 15 to July 31, when elderly over 55 were given freely medical examinations. Every day I arrive early and organized the people who came over. Then I would help him fill in the forms. Lead them to the different departments was also one of my duty. Everyone there worked in a tight schedule. By the time their examinations were over, I was already bathing in sweat. Tired though I was, but I benefited a lot from the experience as I built up my confident and improved my communication skills.

Having a healthy family life can lower risk of heart attack and boost your chance of living longer. 1.．
Care for elders in a loving way
Caring for an elderly loved one is a wonderful way to show compassion and service, and it doesn't mean you have to sacrifice everything. 2.. Kids and marriages can be powerfully impacted by how these decisions are handled，both negatively and positively. They thoroughly think through the potential impact of moving an aging parent into the home or providing extended care. A good boundary with an aging parent is to do occasional outgoings.
Cultivate an attitude of gratitude
Healthy families set a culture of being grateful for the things you appreciate in life, big and small. Set up a respectful space where at the end of each day, each family member share what they are grateful for. 3.．
Keep treats out of sight(and out of mind)
What you see is what you want to eat. 4.. Put the sugary treats out of sight and leave colorful fruits and vegetables out on the counter or on the most visible shelves in the fridge so that you're more likely to reach for a nutritious snack.
5..
Healthy families will create a safe environment for healthy communication, where each individual feels like their feelings are acknowledged. When conflict arises, they don't have to agree with each other but they still need to acknowledge each other's feelings. They still feel their opinions are valued. They also learn tools for how conflicts can be resolved. No one shuts down, or runs away when there is disagreement. They work it out.
A．Fight fair
B．Live healthily
C．Keep healthy snacks highly visible in your kitchen
D．If you keep fighting，you will hurt your family
E. Here’s how to maximize this amazing health asset(资产)
F. This sets up an atmosphere of appreciation that all can benefit from
G. Healthy families have boundaries with aging parents and grandparents
Darwin noted that some human emotional expressions might have started as part of a physiological function: for example, exposing the teeth to bite food. The function, however, took on meaning and became a form of communication which signals anger.
The same may be true for the animals. Baby monkeys cry for attention. They also cry to signal to an adult that they want to be carried.
“Chimpanzees do make upset voice when they are being weaned (断奶) by their mothers or have lost their mothers or another individual,” says Anne Pusey, a professor at the University of Minnesota. “They whimper (呜咽) and cry and scream. When we hear these calls, the emotion involved seems obvious. However, they do not weep in the sense of producing tears. I have seen an adolescent male whimpering when he lost sight of his older brother with whom he had been traveling.”
Babies of many mammalian species, including rats, cry. Moreover, when a baby rat cries, often his mother brings the fallen pup back into the nest. This is probably a straightforward communication, as it is with humans. However, psychologists at the University of Iowa aren’t convinced.
The Iowan researchers can cause the same crying sounds by producing large decreases and then increases in blood flow. The blood flow also goes down when baby rats get cold. Thus, they conclude baby rats cry in the same way that we sneeze. Of course the rat baby could be crying because he’s cold and wants his mother to know.
“All young mammals make cries when separated from their mother,” says Jaak Panksepp, a psychologist at Bowling Green State University. “If you’re willing to call this crying, then certainly other animals show this emotional response.” he says, “Some of us take seriously that animals do have emotions.”
1.According to the first paragraph, what kind of emotion does “exposing the teeth” express?
A. Disappointment. B. Excitement.
C. Anger. D. Happiness.
2.Which is one probable reason why young chimpanzees might be crying?
A. They meet their brother.
B. They have nothing to eat.
C. They are being breast-fed.
D. They are parted from their mother.
3.Under what circumstance will baby rats cry just like humans’ sneeze?
A. Their blood flow is decreased.
B. They feel cold and long for affection.
C. Their blood flow is increased.
D. Their mother brings them back home.
4.Where is the passage most likely taken from?
A. An animal journal. B. A physiology book.
C. A health magazine. D. A cultural newspaper.
Think plants are just boring green things that you use for food and decoration? Think again! Plants are able to do some pretty awesome things that you’re probably totally unaware of.
Researchers have discovered that plants have the ability to communicate with an underground network made up of fungus (真菌) , which serves the plants in many ways. Tomato plants use the fungus web to warn each other of their own unhealthy conditions. Trees connected through the fungus network could move nutrients (养分) to and from each other. It is believed that larger trees move nutrients to smaller ones to help them to survive.
Not only that, but they can also damage unwelcome plants by spreading poisonous chemicals through the fungus. It sounds like the plant world had the Internet before we did.
Some plants have a rather impressive line of defense against being eaten. When sensing they are being swallowed, they give off a chemical into the air that attracts the insect’s natural enemy. The enemy attacks the bug, thus saving the plants. This is basically the plant kingdom version of getting your older brother to beat up that kid who steals your lunch money.
You might be aware that humans and animals have an internal clock. But did you know that plants also have this clock? This means they can prepare for certain times of day just like we do. Is it because they can react to light at sunrise? In a study, scientists found that plants use the sugars they produce to keep time, which help to regulate the genes responsible for the plant’s own internal clock. So, in a sense, ―wake up with petunias (矮牵牛) is just as valid as ―wake up with the chickens.
Nature is full of surprises. So for those of you who didn’t know the wonders of plants, now you do.
1.How many ways does the network of fungus serve the plants?
A. Two. B. Three.
C. Four. D. Five.
2.What does the underlined words ― “your older brother” in Paragraph 4 refer to?
A. The chemical given off by plants. B. The insect’s natural enemy.
C. The bug attacked by the enemy. D. The plant to be eaten by the insect.
3.What helps the plant keep time?
A. The sugars produced by itself. B. Its own genes.
C. The time of sunrise. D. Its response to light.
4.What is the author’s purpose in writing the text?
A. To show his love of different plants.
B. To share his study on some awesome plants.
C. To introduce the unknown abilities of plants.
D. To make people aware of plant protection.
