    Therapeutic (治疗性的) writing involves participating in writing activities to deal with emotional issues. People work under the direction of a therapist (治疗学家) for most of the time.   1. In both cases, participants adopt expressive writing to put down thoughts, emotions, and other experiences.

Therapeutic writing can be useful in cases where people have difficulty communicating by other means. A client who is having trouble with a situation, for example, might write a letter to the people involved as part of therapy. 2. Besides, it works on how to approach the people in real life to settle the issue.

Exercises in therapeutic writing typically encourage people to write for a block of time, such as 15 minutes. They may be asked to write about their days or issues coming up in their lives. In guided therapy, the therapist may review the writing and discuss it with the patient. 3.

Some people keep writing regular journals to share with their therapists and others. 4.   Therapists can also use electronic journals to help patients between sessions, looking at what they’re writing about and identifying specific issues to discuss in therapy.

5. People may keep personal journals or diaries intended for their private use, where they can describe events and explore emotions. Some add a self-directed group therapy aspect as well by sharing their writing with friends who can provide advice.

    This year, German environmentalists collected 1.75 million signatures for a “save the bees” law requiring an immediate change toward organic farming. But to create healthy ecosystems worldwide, people in communities across the globe will need to take similar action based on sympathy for insects — and not only for bees and butterflies. The environmentalists presented immediate, science-based actions to slow down the insect decline.

“It takes specific law to preserve the amazing variety of insects in the world and we need to stop the destroying of natural habitats, limit road building in parks and reserves and produce food without the use of pesticides,” said Basset, an entomologist, “Conserving insects is not the same as conserving big animals or rare frogs. You can’t keep millions of insects in a zoo.”

A recent article in Entomology Today suggests that successful programs to save insects have a clear and simple objective and a strategically chosen audience. By focusing on bees and butterflies and other beautiful, familiar insects, it is possible to enact the law to protect the habitat of lesser known, less attractive, but equally important species.

But there are still huge gaps in information about how different species of insects are doing, especially in the tropics. “It is next to useless to weigh insects collected in an area and say that insect communities are increasing or declining.” Basset said. “We need much more specific information. That is expensive and difficult because of the effort that it takes just to identify the species, especially in the tropics. What we are doing now is to group insects by their main function, and then to determine how each group is doing in a specific area of the world.”

1.What should people do to protect insects according to the text?

A.Stop building roads in parks and reserves.

B.Open up more natural habitats.

C.Avoid using pesticides for crops.

D.Keep them in a zoo.

2.What can we learn from the successful programs to save insects?

A.They have set up laws.

B.They focus on specific species.

C.They conserve important species.

D.They protect the habitat of lesser known species.

3.What are the environmentalists doing now?

A.Classifying the insects.

B.Identifying the species of insects.

C.Doing research on insects’ function.

D.Weighing insects collected in an area.

4.What is the best title for the text?

A.Helping Insects Is Helping Ourselves!

B.Take Action! Insects Need Protection!

C.Save the Bees — They Need Your Help!

D.Insect Decline: Where Have All the Insects Gone?

    Everyone loves a holiday! A little time off for some much-needed R & R (rest and relaxation) can be exactly the thing to refresh. That said, if you’re struggling to think of your next destination, then look no further. Don’t waste time debating, let your blood decide.

Everybody has a lineage (宗系). Recently, finding out more about our family origins has become popular. By the start of 2019, 26 million people had taken an ancestry DNA test at home, according to a report by MIT Technology Review. They believe by 2021 this number will have risen to 100 million.

This trend has been noticed by opportunistic travel operators. Some are looking to provide a service that both allows people to trace their heritageby literally going back to their rootsand travel to the destinations where their ancestors originated from.

Airbnb, an online lodging marketplace, recently partnered with 23andMe, a DNA testing and analysis company, to offer recommendations that encourage travelers to walk in the footsteps of their forefathers. And they aren’t the only ones. The Shelbourne hotel in Dublin has its own advisor. Hellen Kelly offers consultations to help guests trace their Irish origin using official records. This allows them to ‘fill in the blanks of their Irish ancestry’, she told Good Morning America. The Conte Club, a luxury travel company, offers custom travels based on DNA tests. “These experiences are about exploring deeper into who we really are,” says Conte Club CEO Rebecca Fielding in an article in the Condé Nast Traveller. “It might be the most meaningful trip we can take.”

So next time you think of going on vacation, why not take a DNA test first? Once you know how far your family has come, take the time to holiday back.

1.What’s the purpose of the author to write the text?

A.To advise people to take a trip.

B.To persuade people to take a DNA test.

C.To introduce some famous travel operators.

D.To encourage people to take ancestry travels.

2.What does the underlined words “this trend” in paragraph 3 refer to?

A.More people take time off for holidays.

B.More people trace their family origins.

C.More people take an ancestry DNA test.

D.More people find out their travel destinations.

3.What does paragraph 4 mainly focus on?

A.Clubs providing luxury custom travels.

B.Hotels offering travelling consultations.

C.Companies offering DNA testing and analysis.

D.Travel operators providing services to trace the roots.

4.What does Rebecca Fielding think of the ancestry travel?

A.Significant. B.Relaxing. C.Popular. D.Inspiring.

    On a Wednesday afternoon in the Eager Road of Oceola Township, Michigan, when a car showed no sign of movement at a stop sign, majority of the motorists honked wildly.  Annoyed by the inconvenience the car was causing, the motorists simply drove around the car and left.

Fortunately, a 16-year-old motorist, Max Greenwood of Howell High had the heart to hop off his truck and find out what’s really going on. Because of his action, Max was able to inspire two other women to rush over the stopped car and help out the driver.

As it turned out, the driver of the stopped car was distressed. Initially, the three did not have a clue about the driver’s alarming situation. When the driver gathered enough strength to share what happened, Max and the two women quickly assisted him.

“He told the women he thought his blood sugar was low. He got progressively worse. One of the women gave him a Coke to help his sugar levels, but I could tell it wasn’t helping, so I called 911.” Max said.

Thanks to the quick thinking and actions of Max and the two women, help arrived within a few minutes and the driver was transported to a hospital. According to the first medical responders, the man was suffering from a type of medical episode that must be aided immediately.

It is horrible to think what could have happened if Max did not concern himself with the reason why the car was not moving and simply minded his own business. Max may just be a 16-year-old student in the eyes of some people. But for the man he has saved, he surely is a modern hero with a golden heart. May his story inspire us to share a bit of our time to help the people we cross paths with! In this day and age, when a lot of kids don’t think about anyone but themselves, he stepped up and it made a difference.

1.How did most motorists react to the stopped car?

C.They felt annoyed and bypassed the car. D.They blamed the driver for the inconvenience.

2.What happened to the driver of the stopped car?

A.He didn’t notice the traffic signals. B.His car broke down at the crossing.

C.He was exhausted and fell asleep. D.He was attacked by a sudden illness.

3.What can we know about Max Greenwood?

A.He is a hero worth admiring. B.He is just a small child of honesty.

C.He is familiar with the driver. D.He knows much about the first aid.

4.What does the story mainly convey?

A.Love and devotion. B.Selflessness and responsibility.
