Around six weeks ago, Kaileen came running into the house, just getting off the bus from school. She was
excited about a story about homeless pets because of Hurricane (飓风) Katrina and all that was going on to help
them. She said that this information came from her animal newspaper (your KIND News). Kaileen has a great love
and compassion (同情心) for animals, so her excitement did not surprise me. Her next ideas, however, did. She
said that we should go around right then to our neighbors and collect all their change to send to the animal shelters
(保护所).
I thought this was a school project, but in fact, it was not. This was what Kaileen wanted to do on her own!

学科网(北京)股份有限公司Well, it warmed me all over. To see your child so willing to help others just lets you feel that maybe you had done
something right in raising (养育) her.
Anyway, I told her to make a card and send it out to our neighbors first. With the help of her older brother,
Kaileen soon made a lovely card that asked our neighbors to help these pets by giving their spare change. She gave
them a few days and a date she would come by to pick up any donations (捐赠).
Well, I had to go out and buy a donation box. Kaileen collected $279. 50!!! I just thought you would like to
know how KIND News had touched a little one’s heart and given her the idea to show her compassion for animals.

Would you like to get fewer colds and feel better? Would you like to have a taste of a special plant? Would you
like to keep a plant with little care? An Aloe Vera plant could be just what the scientists may suggest! Growing Aloe
Vera as a houseplant can improve air quality and help clean the air. Studies have shown that many houseplants,
including Aloe Vera, can actually take toxins (毒素), sore throats and dry coughs. If you do get these illnesses, Aloe
Vera plants may help you get better.
Aloe Vera plants can be used as medicine. Aloe Vera gel (胶体) helps to deal with the pain of burns. And it
also helps with itchiness (痒) caused by insect bites. To get this gel, peel it, and put the gel on the affected skin (患
处).
Apart from medical use, Aloe Vera plants are also popular in food industry. Whether you are interested in Aloe

vegetables to make a safe dish on your dinner table.
Aloe Vera plants are not cactuses (仙人掌), but they are similar to cactuses in many ways. Like a cactus, Aloe
Vera grows well in dry and warm air. Aloe plants require bright light. So they do best when placed near a window.
Aloe Vera plants are able to store water in their leaves, make it completely wet, much like a desert rainstorm. That’s
all you need to do to take care of an Aloe plant.
Aloe Vera plants are lovely to look at and require very little care. That is why it is the perfect plant for a
forgetful gardener. It is said that Aloe Vera is one of nature’s most amazing gifts! Scientists have even studied
plants as a way of providing cleaner air in space stations. They consider Aloe Vera as one of the top plants on earth
for improving indoor air quality.

Do you like to keep fit? We all know that moving our bodies is good for us. Exercise benefits heart health,
bone health, weight control, and much more. More and more people are taking up activities that improve their
fitness. But there is a risk some of us might get obsessed (痴迷) and overdo it.
While not getting enough exercise is a big topic for most people, however, for some people fitness has become
an obsession as they aim for perfection. And fitness trackers and apps can add to this addiction(成瘾), especially if
someone is driven by achievement and perfectionism. And sharing data on social media means exercising becomes
public and competitive which could cause problems in someone who is vulnerable (易受伤的). Experts say this can
lead to a medical condition called orthorexia nervosa (完美食欲症), it can lead to malnutrition (营养不良) and
mental health problems.
Too much exercise can also take its toll on someone’s physical health as well. Over exercising can lead to
injuries such as stress fractures (疲劳性骨折), and a low immune system (免疫系统). So how much exercise is too

的
kilometres per hour and that it was best to jog no more than three times a week or for 2. 5 hours in total (适度 )
jogging is possibly more beneficial than giving up exercising or doing hard jogging.
While over-exercising can make problems, the good news is that you can change the effects of over-
exercising. “The first thing you can (and should) do is to rest”, a sports and exercise psychologist says, “If you’re
still experiencing symptoms (症状), it’s a good idea to check in with your doctor to see if you need to take more
time off or if there’s any underlying problem that needs to be checked.”
30. What can lead to people’s addiction to over-exercise according to paragraph 2?
A. Their needs for social support. B. Their addiction to fitness apps.
C. Their worries over health problems. D. Their strong drive for perfectionism.

B. Sharing data on social media can help you get achievement.
C. More and more people like doing over-exercising activities.
D. Addiction to ‘healthy’ eating or over-exercise can lead to health problems.
.

A. The risk of fitness obsession. B. The importance of doing exercise.

四、 阅读短文, 根据短文内容回答问题。(10分)
Collecting As a Hobby
Collecting must be one of the various human activities, and it’s one that many psychologists (心理学家) find
more attractive.
Some people collect because they want to make money. This could be called an instrumental (工具性) reason
for collecting. They’ll look for antiques (古董,古玩) that they can buy cheaply and expect to sell at a profit (赢
利). But there may well be a psychological element, too—buying cheap and selling dear can give the collector a
sense of achievement.
Another motive for collecting is the desire (渴望) to find something special, such as a rare early recording by a
particular singer. Some may spend therir whole lives in a hunt for this, Psychologically, this can give a purpose to a
life. There is a danger, though, that if the individual is enough lucky enough to find what they’re looking for, they

If you think about collecting postage stamps, another potential reason is its educational value. Stamp
collecting opens a window to other countries, and to the plants, animals, or famous people shown on their stamps.
In the 19th century, many collectors collected fossils, animals and plants from around the globe and their
collections provided a large amount of information about the natural world. Without those collections, our
understanding would be far behind what it is.
Not all collectors are interested in learning from their hobbies. Some people collect because of the need for a
sense of control. Stamp collectors, for instance, arrange their stamps in albums very neatly according to their
preferred principles.
