We always enjoy pointing out some unusual holidays to add to your calendar. Now jot these down, learn something new and have fun!

Random Acts of Kindness Day(February 17)

If you have encountered a homeless person and given money, that's a random act of kindness. The idea of this day is to get lots of people doing something kind for someone they don't know with no expectation of getting anything in return. This concept is trickier with social distancing but even a big smile and a “hi!” from across the street qualifies.

I Forgot Day (July 2)

Did you forget to call Grandma on her birthday or return that soccer ball you borrowed from a friend three months ago? Today is a good day to clean the slate. Make a list of things you meant to do but forgot. Work through the list, and don't get discouraged if you don't accomplish everything in one day. Just remember to keep the list in a place where you'll see it. Otherwise, you know what will happen.

DOGust First (August 1)

If your family is one of the many-hat adopted dogs from animal shelters last year, you may not know, for example, Luna or Cooper's actual birthday. The North Shore Animal League thought of that problem in 2008 and picked today as the birthday of all shelter dogs. Give your pup extra love today, and consider what you can do to hell) other shelter dogs.

World Vegetarian Day(October 1)

It's not hard to go without meat for one day, but how about one month? The North American Vegetarian Society asks people to help reduce greenhouse gases by pledging to eat no meat, fish or fowl(basically chicken or turkey) in October. The pledge is tricky for kids to make on their own because Mom and Dad are usually in charge of preparing meals. Ask them if you can participate or if the whole family could try it. You will probably be surprised about how many tasty meals are meatless.

1. Which can be described as a random act of kindness?

A. John accepted a new job for a better salary.     B. Mr. Robert told a story in the lecture today.

C. The Smiths drove their children to school.      D. Sally said "hello" to a stranger in the lift.

When Kerry Irving heard a whimper and caught sight of a young dog peering at him through a gap in the railings, he was at rock bottom.

A car accident in 2006 had left him housebound and in chronic(长期)pain. His mental health suffered and he went on to be diagnosed with severe depression.

Three years after the crash, while out for a rare walk, he met Max and began to turn his life around. He ended up becoming the dog's owner. Max has helped to give Irving a more positive outlook on life. Irving began charting their joint adventures on his Facebook page and quickly the number of their followers began to grow. Irving has used Max's uplifting nature to help others.

There were hundreds of requests from fans desperate to meet Max and to help more people he trained as a therapy dog with Assistance Dogs UK in 2016. He was then able to make special visits to schools, hospitals and hospices. When his popularity continued to grow, Irving began organizing walks for charity, so that large groups of people could come together and meet him.

Today the dog from Keswick in the Lake District becomes the first pet to win what has been called an animal OBE in recognition of the service he has provided to thousands as a virtual "therapet".

"I think it's the look that he gives you," Irving said, "He just looks straight into your soul and just fixes people. He can walk into a room and literally sit next to someone and just look at them."

Max's skills have been put to use online, cheering up thousands of followers through videos on social media. Anyone feeling lonely or anxious has been able to join Kerry and his dog on daily walks through Facebook Live.

As well as his new accolade online, Max has met the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge and is even getting a statue in his honour that will be unveiled in a local park this spring.

People dream of living long. In a survey on Longevity several years ago, 77 percent said they'd like to make it to 100. So we diet, count steps, pop supplements and hope for miracle treatments. Yet although diet and exercise are certainly vital for health, science shows there is another longevity secret we often overlook: finding purpose.

Research reveals that people who believe their existence has meaning have more favorable gene expression. If a 90-year-old with a clear purpose in life develops Alzheimer's disease, that person will probably keep functioning relatively well despite some changes in the brain, one study found. Another analysis of 10 studies involving more than 136.000 people found that having purpose in life can lower your death risk by about 17 percent-about as much as following the famed Mediterranean diet.

Two years ago when researching my new book, "Growing Young: How Friendship, Optimism and Kindness Can Help You Live to 100," I talked to scientists and centenarians in Japan about the reason behind their nation's exceptional longevity-life expectancy at birth in that country stands at 84. 2 years, almost six years longer than in the United States. While similar interviews I've conducted in the West tended to center on diet and exercise, in Japan the conversations quickly moved to ikigai, which is seen as having such measurable effects on longevity.

In one study conducted on over 43, 000 Japanese, not having ikigai was linked to a 60 percent higher risk of dying of cardiovascular disease. That's a lot. Eating plenty of fruits and vegetables per day can cut the danger of cardiovascular disease by "just" 27 percent. Elderly Japanese I interviewed talked about ikigai as "taking care of grandchildren," "volunteering," "keeping their street clean and pretty." So Japan's Ministry of Health. Labor and Welfare has included it in the official health promotion strategy.

The good news is that it's possible to boost our sense of meaning and purpose through simple things, such as volunteering. If we keep such things going, if we find purpose and meaning in the current gloom, we may end up not just happier but healthier and longer-lived.

8. Why does the author compare "finding purpose" with "the Mediterranean diet"?

A. They are new methods to get rid of Alzheimer.

B. They have similar effects on people's longevity.

C. They both have a good fame in medical science.

D. They used to be overlooked as a vital treatment.

9. How do the Japanese consider ikigai as a way to enjoy a longer life?

A. Well recognized.      B. Kind of impractical.

C. A bit ridiculous.      D. Seemingly illogical.

10. What does the underlined word "it" in Para 4 refer to?

A. Volunteering.      B. The study in Japan.      C. Ikigai.      D. An interview.

11. What does the author intend to do by writing the passage?

A. To investigate the true meaning of life.

B. To explain how to live purposefully.

C. To introduce the secret of longevity from a new perspective.

D. To warn us of some traps when seeking longevity.

D

Violent winter weather sweeping across large parts of the central and southern US has brought record-breaking cold temperatures, leaving the electricity cut off and at least 21 deaths.

The worst power outages were in Texas, where more than 4 million homes and businesses remained without power on Tuesday in subfreezing temperatures. Elsewhere more than 250, 000 people also lost power across parts of Appalachia, and 4 million people lost power in Mexico.

The blackouts forced Harris county to scramble(争夺)to get more than 8, 000 doses of Moderna's coronavirus vaccine into people's arms, after the county public health facility lost power and its back-up generator also failed. The conditions also delayed vaccine shipments. State officials said Texas, due to receive more than 400, 000 doses this week, did not expect deliveries until at least Wednesday.

Associating climate change, normally connected with burning heat, with an unusual winter storm that has destroyed a wide part of Texas, most people find it seem so abnormal. But scientists say there is evidence that the rapid heating of the Arctic can help push cold air from the north pole much further south, possibly to the US-Mexico border.

This phenomenon has shown itself to a dramatic degree over the past month, with a splitting of the polar vortex(涡旋)helping cause huge flurries of snow in Europe as well as record cold temperatures in parts of the US used to milder winters.

There is no agreement among scientists over the interaction between Arctic heat and cold weather further south, which is called as a topic of "an active area of research". Global heating is causing warmer winters, and record cold temperatures are now being clearly outpaced by record hot temperatures, but the complex interaction of climatic conditions still requires further investigation, to the great surprise of some among others, including some famous scientists.

12. What record has been broken recently in the US?

A. The power outage.        B. The cold weather.

C. Coronavirus vaccine.      D. Deaths in the blackouts.

13. Why did vaccines become of vital importance in Harris county?

A. Vaccine shipments were disturbed by its state government.

B. More back-up generators should be set up to provide power.

C. Harris county had an argument with the Texas government.

D. The local health facility failed to work properly without power.

14. What do the public think about the weather phenomenon in the central and southern US?

A. Unreasonable.      B. Undoubted.      C. Discouraging.      D. Predictable.

15. What interaction of climates is focused on by scientists?

A. Milder winters and violent summers.         B. Arctic cold and Antarctic heat.

C. Global heating and violent cold weather.      D. Cold and heat in active areas.

根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。

It's no secret that parents love to share pictures of their kids on social media. Who can blame them?   16   It's normal to show off their kids. Yet the sharing online can largely affect their children's safety and privacy. After all, what's posted online is public and permanent.

As adults post about the children in their lives, they make personal information about the kids-their birthdays, full names or hometowns-available to Internet users. On a small scale, this might look like a parent sharing photos of their little one on a Facebook page with 300 friends. On a larger scale, this means a mommy blogger shares the details of their child's everyday life with millions of followers online.   17  

There are positives to sharing images and stories of their children on social media.   18   It helps find support from other moms in your area, as well as receive and offer advice from parents far and wide. Plus, by posting updates, you're keeping distant relatives and friends in the loop on the most important part of your life!

   19   . As a child grows up, they may become embarrassed about what was shared online when they were younger. It can also have serious consequences for the child's physical and emotional well-being. Digital kidnapping happens when someone uses a child's identity illegally on social media. This is a terrifying but very real risk. Even worse, this can put a child at risk of actual kidnapping.

In the digital age, everyone has access to pretty much everything, at any time they want! While social media helps us stay connected, there are concerns to think about to keep children protected. 20 Setting a clear boundary about what to share online is what you have to consider first.

A. Their kids are really cute!

B. Do remember to ask for children's approval before posting.

C. Many moms consider it no effect to share images of their kids online.

D. Do parents really have the right to create a digital footprint for children?

E. But sharenting may hurt the children's self-esteem and put them in danger.

F. It can be a way to share your kids' milestones with people who love them.

G. Then any personal information about their kids is automatically available to others.

John began noticing when he was in kindergarten that he looked different from other kids. They had two hands. He had one.

"It started when one boy teased him." said his mother, Judy. Her boy returned to their home with questions: Why am I different? Why me? Why?

"He actually told us he was mad at his being born with such a defect," his mother said, "that was a huge blow to the heart." Judy admitted she didn't know what to do at that point. How could she provide answers to her son's questions when she had never found those answers herself?

A few weeks later, Judy came home from her job as a science teacher at a state school and turned on the TV to a news story about a six-foot-three eighth grader from Washington, Iowa. Trashaun Willis, then 14, had become an Internet celebrity after posting videos of his slam dunks(灌篮), and, like John, he was missing most of his left arm. Judy called John in. He was silent, watching dunk after monstrous dunk.

At the time, it seemed that watching Trashaun would simply be an inspiring moment for John-he'd see a thriving role model with a seemingly similar physical defect. And had it stayed just that, John would have been happy. Suddenly, an idea occurred to Judy. Why not reach out to the newspaper to help set up a meeting with Trashaun to build John's confidence?
