The familiar sund f rustling and clanking fills the huse—it’s the sund f my mther preparing breakfast. My mrning alarm.
As I drag my bdy tward the kitchen, I’m greeted by my mther standing in frnt f the stve. She effrtlessly cks a dish that blends Western and Eastern styles, a belved breakfast classic in ur family. This is my grandmther’s recipe, which mirrred her upbringing.
Since my grandmther’s passing. I’ve becme mre aware f my mther’s aging and her dedicatin (奉献) t cking fr us. She has cked fr her family fr mre than 30 years, dividing her time between three cuntries—Krea. Canada and Germany. When my parents visit us frm Krea, they stay with us fr several mnths. My mther helps arund the huse, shwing her cking skills t prvide delicius meals fr me, my partner and ur kids. In alternating years, she and my dad will travel t Berlin t spend a cuple f weeks with my sister and her partner.
Accrding t Statista, mst Canadians claim t spend between 31 and 60 minutes preparing an average weekday dinner fr themselves and thers in their husehld. 10 percent f the respndents t the 2022 survey stated that they spend mre than an hur preparing their evening meal. My mther belngs t that 10 percent. And her daily cking begins much earlier at the grcery stre where she examines prduce and finds the best deals. She takes everyne’s preferences and needs int accunt. The meal she creates becmes a ritual (仪式), bringing the family tgether t cnnect and share.
In an era where cnvenience is king, with micrwave dinners and meal kits flurishing (繁荣) in kitchens. the tugh prcess f creating a hmemade meal frm scratch might seem highly inefficient Hwever, my 68-year-ld mther embraces it with such dignity.
“Npe, that’s nt hw yu cut yur carrts.”
“Lwer the heat, r yu’ll burn the butter.”
“N, yu shuldn’t use that bwl fr this meal.”
Helping her ut in the kitchen is nt easy. Yet, I knw it’s her way f expressing lve—that extra ingredient that ges int ur every meal.

Yu’ve mst likely heard the news by nw: A car-cmmuting, desk-bund, TV-watching lifestyle can be harmful t ur health. All the time that we spend rted in the chair is linked t increased risks f s many deadly diseases that experts have named this mdem-day health epidemic the “sitting disease”
Sitting fr t lng slws dwn the bdy’s metablism (新陈代谢) and the way enzymes break dwn ur fat reserves, raising bth bld sugar levels and bld pressure. Small amunts f regular activity, even just standing and mving arund, thrughut the day is enugh t bring the increased levels back dwn. And thse small amunts f activity add up—30 minutes f light activity in tw r three-minute bursts can be just as effective as a half-hur blck f exercise. But withut that activity, bld sugar levels and bld pressure keep creeping up, steadily damaging the inside f the arteries (动脉) and increasing the risk f diabetes, heart disease, strke, and ther serius diseases. In essence, fundamental changes in bilgy ccur if yu sit fr t lng.
But wait, yu’re a runner. Yu needn’t wrry abut the harm f a sedentary lifestyle because yu exercise regularly, right? Well, nt s fast. Recent studies shw that peple spend an average f 64 hurs a week sitting. whether r nt they exercise 150 minutes a week as recmmended by Wrld Health Organizatin (WHO). Regular exercisers, furthermre, are fund t be abut 30 percent less active n days when they exercise. Overall, mst peple simply aren’t exercising r mving arund enugh t balance ut all the harm that can result frm sitting nine hurs r mre a day.
Scared straight ut f yur chair? Gd. The remedy is as simple as standing up and taking activity breaks.
28. Which is the best way t bring dwn high bld sugar level and bld pressure?
A. Ding exercise fr 150 minutes r mre every week.
B. Getting rid f the habit f car cmmuting and TV watching.
C. Standing r mving arund fr at least tw minutes every day.
D. Interrupting sitting time with light activity as ften as pssible.
29. What des the underlined wrd “sedentary” in the third paragraph mst likely mean?
A. Inactive.B. Risky.C. Overladed.D. Unbalanced.
30. Which f the fllwing may be inferred abut thse wh d serius exercise?

B. They tend t stand r mve less n the days when they wrk ut.
C. They usually remve all the harmful effects f sitting fr t lng.
D. They generally spend less time sitting than thse wh d nt exercise.
31. What is the passage mainly abut?

When we talk abut the "Triangle f Life", we are talking abut the cntrversial thery f earthquake survival prpsed by Dug Cpp, funder f American Rescue Team Internatinal. Dug Cpp’s methds reject the usual “Drp, Cver Cling” apprach and fcus n hiding next t heavy bjects. The thery hlds that when a building cllapses, empty spaces beside larger bjects can act as structural supprts. Accrding t Dug’s website, this is supprted by mre than 150 studies and lts f pictures.
Mst f Mr Cpp’s theries seem t be based n what he has witnessed during earthquakes arund the wrld. In many cuntries, building regulatins are less strict and buildings are ften lder r made f different materials. These differences can lead t what is called a “pancake cllapse” in an earthquake, which means a building suffers a ttal structural failure. This is a Hllywd-style, nthing-lent-standing cllapse. Studies have shwn that the “Triangle f Life Thery” is valid in situatins where a ttal cllapse is likely t happen.
But during an earthquake, mst injuries and deaths are caused by falling bjects, nt cllapsing structures. Victims are mre likely t be crushed by a filing cabinet (文件柜) than trapped in brken stnes r bricks, especially in cuntries where building regulatins and materials are tugh. Because f this, many peple are dubtful abut any preparedness advice that teaches peple t mve twards heavy and ptentially unstable bjects.
In additin t his persnal bservatins, Dug Cpp supprts his theries with studies he has cnducted. The mst famus f these used earth-mving technlgies t knck ut the supprt structures in mdel schls and hmes. Mannequins (人体模型) were placed in the building in varius psitins and, accrding t Cpp, they shwed a 100% survival rate fr “Triangle f Life” users and nly deaths fr “Duck and Cver” users. Hwever, accrding t critics, these were rescue drills rather than experiments. The lateral (横向的) mvement f an earthquake was left ut, encuraging a pancake cllapse instead f damage mre likely t ccur in develped cuntries.
32. What des Dug Cpp’s “Triangle f Life Thery” mainly fcus n during an earthquake?
A. Keeping away frm thin walls.
B. Sheltering under a piece f furniture.
C. Observing earthquake patters.
D. Hiding next t heavy bjects.
33. Why is Hllywd-style cllapse mentined in paragraph 2?
A. T prve the validity f the survival thery.
B. T shw the imprtance f earthquake predictin.
C. T highlight the need fr stricter building regulatins.
D. T indicate pancake cllapses are cmmn in earthquakes.
34. What des the underlined wrd “this” in paragraph 3 refer t?
A. The necessity f taking cver during earthquakes.
B. The danger f falling bjects in earthquakes.
C. The likelihd f being trapped in brken stnes r bricks.
D. The difficulty in finding tugh building materials in sme cuntries.
35. What limitatin d critics see in Dug Kpp’s study?
A. The study was cnducted using a mdel structure.
B. The survival rates were nt statistically dcumented.
C. Lateral mvements in earthquakes were nt cnsidered.
D. The study was based n rescue drills in develped cuntries.

The paper was hidden in a brwn bag. It was her late father’s bucket list, written n three pages fr frm a ntebk. Laura Carney lked dwn at it, then she glanced up at her husband. Withut a wrd spken, they bth knew: “I needed t finish it,” says Carney, 46.
Her brther, David, was the first t spt it. He uncvered the treasure in 2016—13 years after their father, Michael Mick Carney, was tragically killed when be was 54 by a distracted driver.
The list, Carney says, was written in 1978, the year she was brn. It had 60 tasks, five f which had already been checked ff. One was marked “failed”. That left 54 items fr Carney t cmplete. The tasks ranged frm relatively simple tasks, like “grw a watermeln,” t mre cmplicated nes like “crrespnd with a famus celebrity”. Several tasks were seemingly impssible. Still, Carney was nt discuraged. Fr Carney, the bucket list was an unexpected pprtunity t wrk thrugh her pain and recnnect with her dad.
“The first cuple nes that I did happened rganically,” Carney says. She had already signed up fr a marathn, which allwed her t check “run 10 miles straight” ff the list.
Anther item she cmpleted early n was “talk with the president.” She learned that frmer President Jimmy Carter—wh wuld have been president when Carney’s father wrte the list—taught Sunday schl in Gergia. She and her husband flew there t meet him.
While Carney cmpleted many f the bucket list tasks n her wn—including a tw-week trip t Eurpe— “it didn’t really feel like I was ding things alne, because I knew my dad was with me,” she says. “I feel like my relatinship with him is very present.”
Carney’s brther and mther accmpanied her fr sme activities, and her husband jined her fr thers. “After abut the first year r tw f ding this prject, he wuld say t me that the persn he had always seen in me was cming ut,” Carney says. “I had all these layers f sadness and fear that I was leaving behind.”

The familiar sund f rustling and clanking fills the huse—it’s the sund f my mther preparing breakfast. My mrning alarm.
As I drag my bdy tward the kitchen, I’m greeted by my mther standing in frnt f the stve. She effrtlessly cks a dish that blends Western and Eastern styles, a belved breakfast classic in ur family. This is my grandmther’s recipe, which mirrred her upbringing.
Since my grandmther’s passing. I’ve becme mre aware f my mther’s aging and her dedicatin (奉献) t cking fr us.

My mther belngs t that 10 percent. And her daily cking begins much earlier at the grcery stre where she examines prduce and finds the best deals. She takes everyne’s preferences and needs int accunt. The meal she creates becmes a ritual (仪式), bringing the family tgether t cnnect and share.
In an era where cnvenience is king, with micrwave dinners and meal kits flurishing (繁荣) in kitchens. the tugh prcess f creating a hmemade meal frm scratch might seem highly inefficient Hwever, my 68-year-ld mther embraces it with such dignity.
“Npe, that’s nt hw yu cut yur carrts.”
“Lwer the heat, r yu’ll burn the butter.”
“N, yu shuldn’t use that bwl fr this meal.”
Helping her ut in the kitchen is nt easy. Yet, I knw it’s her way f expressing lve—that extra ingredient that ges int ur every meal.

Yu’ve mst likely heard the news by nw: A car-cmmuting, desk-bund, TV-watching lifestyle can be harmful t ur health. All the time that we spend rted in the chair is linked t increased risks f s many deadly diseases that experts have named this mdem-day health epidemic the “sitting disease”
Sitting fr t lng slws dwn the bdy’s metablism (新陈代谢) and the way enzymes break dwn ur fat reserves, raising bth bld sugar levels and bld pressure. Small amunts f regular activity, even just standing and mving arund, thrughut the day is enugh t bring the increased levels back dwn. And thse small amunts f activity add up—30 minutes f light activity in tw r three-minute bursts can be just as effective as a half-hur blck f exercise. But withut that activity, bld sugar levels and bld pressure keep creeping up, steadily damaging the inside f the arteries (动脉) and increasing the risk f diabetes, heart disease, strke, and ther serius diseases. In essence, fundamental changes in bilgy ccur if yu sit fr t lng.
But wait, yu’re a runner. Yu needn’t wrry abut the harm f a sedentary lifestyle because yu exercise regularly, right? Well, nt s fast. Recent studies shw that peple spend an average f 64 hurs a week sitting. whether r nt they exercise 150 minutes a week as recmmended by Wrld Health Organizatin (WHO). Regular exercisers, furthermre, are fund t be abut 30 percent less active n days when they exercise. Overall, mst peple simply aren’t exercising r mving arund enugh t balance ut all the harm that can result frm sitting nine hurs r mre a day.
Scared straight ut f yur chair? Gd. The remedy is as simple as standing up and taking activity breaks.
28. Which is the best way t bring dwn high bld sugar level and bld pressure?
A. Ding exercise fr 150 minutes r mre every week.
B. Getting rid f the habit f car cmmuting and TV watching.
C. Standing r mving arund fr at least tw minutes every day.
D. Interrupting sitting time with light activity as ften as pssible.
29. What des the underlined wrd “sedentary” in the third paragraph mst likely mean?

When we talk abut the "Triangle f Life", we are talking abut the cntrversial thery f earthquake survival prpsed by Dug Cpp, funder f American Rescue Team Internatinal. Dug Cpp’s methds reject the usual “Drp, Cver Cling” apprach and fcus n hiding next t heavy bjects. The thery hlds that when a building cllapses, empty spaces beside larger bjects can act as structural supprts. Accrding t Dug’s website, this is supprted by mre than 150 studies and lts f pictures.
Mst f Mr Cpp’s theries seem t be based n what he has witnessed during earthquakes arund the wrld. In many cuntries, building regulatins are less strict and buildings are ften lder r made f different materials. These differences can lead t what is called a “pancake cllapse” in an earthquake, which means a building suffers a ttal structural failure. This is a Hllywd-style, nthing-lent-standing cllapse. Studies have shwn that the “Triangle f Life Thery” is valid in situatins where a ttal cllapse is likely t happen.
But during an earthquake, mst injuries and deaths are caused by falling bjects, nt cllapsing structures. Victims are mre likely t be crushed by a filing cabinet (文件柜) than trapped in brken stnes r bricks, especially in cuntries where building regulatins and materials are tugh. Because f this, many peple are dubtful abut any preparedness advice that teaches peple t mve twards heavy and ptentially unstable bjects.
In additin t his persnal bservatins, Dug Cpp supprts his theries with studies he has cnducted. The mst famus f these used earth-mving technlgies t knck ut the supprt structures in mdel schls and hmes. Mannequins (人体模型) were placed in the building in varius psitins and, accrding t Cpp, they shwed a 100% survival rate fr “Triangle f Life” users and nly deaths fr “Duck and Cver” users. Hwever, accrding t critics, these were rescue drills rather than experiments. The lateral (横向的) mvement f an earthquake was left ut, encuraging a pancake cllapse instead f damage mre likely t ccur in develped cuntries.
32. What des Dug Cpp’s “Triangle f Life Thery” mainly fcus n during an earthquake?
A. Keeping away frm thin walls.
B. Sheltering under a piece f furniture.
C. Observing earthquake patters.
D. Hiding next t heavy bjects.
33. Why is Hllywd-style cllapse mentined in paragraph 2?
A. T prve the validity f the survival thery.
B. T shw the imprtance f earthquake predictin.
C. T highlight the need fr stricter building regulatins.
D. T indicate pancake cllapses are cmmn in earthquakes.
34. What des the underlined wrd “this” in paragraph 3 refer t?
A. The necessity f taking cver during earthquakes.
B. The danger f falling bjects in earthquakes.
C. The likelihd f being trapped in brken stnes r bricks.
D. The difficulty in finding tugh building materials in sme cuntries.
35. What limitatin d critics see in Dug Kpp’s study?
A. The study was cnducted using a mdel structure.
B. The survival rates were nt statistically dcumented.
C. Lateral mvements in earthquakes were nt cnsidered.
D. The study was based n rescue drills in develped cuntries.

The paper was hidden in a brwn bag. It was her late father’s bucket list, written n three pages fr frm a ntebk. Laura Carney lked dwn at it, then she glanced up at her husband. Withut a wrd spken, they bth knew: “I needed t finish it,” says Carney, 46.
Her brther, David, was the first t spt it. He uncvered the treasure in 2016—13 years after their father, Michael Mick Carney, was tragically killed when be was 54 by a distracted driver.
The list, Carney says, was written in 1978, the year she was brn. It had 60 tasks, five f which had already been checked ff. One was marked “failed”. That left 54 items fr Carney t cmplete. The tasks ranged frm relatively simple tasks, like “grw a watermeln,” t mre cmplicated nes like “crrespnd with a famus celebrity”. Several tasks were seemingly impssible. Still, Carney was nt discuraged. Fr Carney, the bucket list was an unexpected pprtunity t wrk thrugh her pain and recnnect with her dad.
“The first cuple nes that I did happened rganically,” Carney says. She had already signed up fr a marathn, which allwed her t check “run 10 miles straight” ff the list.
Anther item she cmpleted early n was “talk with the president.” She learned that frmer President Jimmy Carter—wh wuld have been president when Carney’s father wrte the list—taught Sunday schl in Gergia. She and her husband flew there t meet him.
While Carney cmpleted many f the bucket list tasks n her wn—including a tw-week trip t Eurpe— “it didn’t really feel like I was ding things alne, because I knew my dad was with me,” she says. “I feel like my relatinship with him is very present.”
Carney’s brther and mther accmpanied her fr sme activities, and her husband jined her fr thers. “After abut the first year r tw f ding this prject, he wuld say t me that the persn he had always seen in me was cming ut,” Carney says. “I had all these layers f sadness and fear that I was leaving behind.”
