As my husband and I drove down a
country road
，
we passed a
fire station with a sign that
read
，
“
Are you
ready for the next
storm?
”
Our area had just
been in the path of Hurricane
Irma
，
causing
downed trees and
outages
．
We were stuck in the
dark and cut off from the outside
world
．
We have
had our share of storms in the
past
—
a snowstorm and other
heavy snows that knocked
down
trees
，
sometimes up to a week
at a time
．
Those days in a
cold house weren
’
t
fun
，
but we 1earned
so much from those early
storms
，
things that made
later storms easier to bear
．
Now we have stored up
flashlights
，
lanterns and
candies
．
We bought a battery-
operated radio to
keep
up
with
the
news
．
We
stocked up on
batteries
so
that
we
’
d have
plenty
for
extended
power
failures
．
We make
sure our grill(
烤架
)is ready
and its tank is full
，
and we
purchase food that can be
easily
prepared
and
then
cooked
or
heated
on
the
grill
．
And
we
don
’
t
forget
to
buy
emergency
chocolater!We have
book lights to read in the
dark
．
We keep our car gas
tanks full and have emergency
cash on
hand
．
We
’
re ready for
the next storm
，
but we
wouidn
’
t have learned to do
all those things if we
hadn
’
t encountered a storm
in the past
．
The same is true
spiritually
．
Those little
storms in our lives are never
fun
，
but they
prepare us for the big
storms
—
the big
trials
—
that will come our
way
．
They can teach us
some valuable
lessons
．
Are you
ready for the next storm?Now is the time to get re
ady
．
．
．
not when the storm arrives
．
24
．
Which can
replace the underlined word
“
outages
”
in paragraph 1 ?
A
．
weather change
B
．
virus
’
spreading
C
．
power failure
D
．
emotional
reaction
25
．
What
does paragraph 3 mainly talk about?
A
．
The lessons
that storms can teach us.
B
．
The importance
of being ready for storms
．
C
．
The necessities
the author bought for her daily
life
．
D
．
The
preparations the author made for the next
storm
．
26
．
What does the
author think of experiencing the past storms?
A
．
It was
rewarding
．
B
．
It
was annoying
．
C
．
It was
thrilling
．
D
．
It was
frightening
．
27
．
What can we
learn from the author
’
s
story?
A
．
Things
will work out
．
B
．
Keep something
for a rainy day
．
C
．
Don
’
t stop regardless of the
weather
．

On a trip to the forests
of southern India
，
amateur
photographer Kaushik Vijayan was shocked to
see some massive rodents(
啮齿动
物
)
，
who are maroon
(
紫褐色
)
，
leaping from treetop to
treetop
．
Vijayan
uploaded the images of the four-pound rodents to
Instagram
，
and the Internet
went crazy
immediately
．
Some
had a difficult time believing that the
squirrels
，
photographed in
the Pathanamthitta
District of
Kerala
，
actually
exist
，
thanks to the
animals
’
bright spots of
black and maroon
．
But
the
Indian
giant(
巨大的
)squirrel<
/p>
，
also
known
as
the
Malabar
giant
squirrel
，
is
the
real
deal
．
Believe it
or not
，
it is not
alone
．
There are three other
giants in the squirrel family
，
Sciuridae
—
each
of
which
weighs
in at
two
to
three
times
the
size
of
the
gray
squirrels
native
to
the
eastern
United
States
．
“
The four species that make
up this group are fascinating in their large
size
，
brilliant
coloration
，
and tendency for
feeding on some of the massive tropical fruits on
the trees
，
”
says
Koprowski
．
Even
among its relatives
，
the
Indian giant squirrel stands out with its bright
colors
，
which makes
one wonder why its evolution would
select fur
．
That would call
so much attention to
itself
．
After
all
，
these forests are also
home to predators such as lion-tailed macaques
，
leopards
，
and crested serpent
eagles
—
all of
which have been known to hunt
rodents
．
No one
knows for sure
，
says
Koprowski
，
but the
squirrel
’
s purple patterns
may serve as a way to
hide the animal
itself
．
This is because the
broadleaf forests these squirrels inhabit create a
pattern of
sun spots and shaded
areas
—
not unlike the rodents
’
markings
．
In
other
words
，
what
looks
flashy
and
fun
to
us
in
an
Instagram
post
may
make
the
squirrels
disappear when hungry mouths come to
hunt
．
Now
that
’
s a common
trick
．
28
．
How did people
feel after seeing the Malabar giant
squirrel
’
s images?
A
．
Nervous

D

What makes the
Malabar giant squirrel different from the rest?
A
．
Its
size
．
B
．
Its
habitat
．
C
．
Its
color
．
D
．
Its
lifestyle
．
30
．
Why does the
Malabar giant squirrel have unusual fur?
A
．
To show itself
off
．
B

To protect
itself

C

To drive othor
animals away

D

China
successfully
sent
the
52nd
and
53rd
satellites
of
its
domestically
developed
BeiDou
Navigation
Satellite
System(BDS)
—
the
last
two
medium
Earth
orbit(MEO)satellites
for
the
BDS-3
constellation(
星座
)
—
into space on
Monday
，
marking the
completion of the global navigation
system
’
s core constellation
deployment(
部署
)and this
year
’
s BDS satellite launch
campaign
．
Launched from Xichang Satellite Launch
Center
，
Sichuan
Province
，
on board a Long
March-3B
carrier rocket with an
Expedition-1 upper stage
，
the
two satellites were injected into planned orbits
after more than three hours
’
flight
．
Since the first BDS-3 satellite was
launched on November 5
，
2017<
/p>
，
China has conducted 18 BDS
satellite launch
missions
，
successfully
sending 30 into their planned
orbit
，
setting a national
record for
highest mission frequency
and success rate
．
In-orbit tests will be carried out
before the two MEO satellites are commissioned(
正式委托
)
．
By
then
the
core
constellation
for
the
Chinese
global
navigation
satellite
system
will
be
successfully
completed
．
Wang Ping
，
chief
designer of the BDS-3
system
，
said that the hybrid
constellation design
，
in
which
three
groups
of
satellites
—
the
Inclined
Geo
Synchronous
Orbit(IGSO)
，
MEO
and
geosynchronous
Earth
orbit(GEO)
—
work
in
concert
in
different
orbits
，
was
an
exclusive
BDS
innovation and a world
first
．
“
Existing
global navigation satellite
systems
，
such as the US GPS
and
Russia
’
s
GLONASS
，
only have a MEO
satellite constellation
，
”
said Wang
．
The
MEO
satellites
，
in
orbit
20
，
000
kilometers
above
Earth
，
are
a
special
type
of
satellite
providing global
service
，
while the IGSO and
GEO satellites
，
in an orbit
360
，
000 kilometers above
Earth
，
mainly
enhance regional service
quality
，
according to
Wang
．
That explained why
completion of
the
MEO
constellation
was
significant
，
marking
the
completion
of
the
core
network
for
BDS-3
，
meaning a
stable BDS-3 global coverage without weak points
has been carried out
．
Feedback shows that the BDS service
quality was already comparable to GPS since the
end of
2018
，
and
after completing
BDS-3
，
“
We will be
as good as any
GNSS
，
”
Wang
said

C
．
The lower cost
of designing it

s
the start of a new year
，
when
your fitness goals are set and you engage in the
challenge

36
Their
standards
of
“
too
big
”
are
not
even
achievable
in
their
lifetime
，
let
alone
a
few
months
of
training
，
which
brings my tips
．
Set realistic goals!The process of
building muscle is an absolutely slow one that
requires strong
will to
gain
．
Consistently causing
protein synthesis(
合成
)in
specific muscle fibers will allow muscle to
develop
．
However
< br>，
all individuals are not equal in
the process
．
37
Gaining muscle will happen
quickly to a new gym-
goer
，
but take a long time
for someone that has been training for
years
．
Stick to
specific training for the goals you set to
achieve
．
38
This will require you to
restrict
the
diet
，
and it will prevent you
gaining muscle
．
Diet reflects
the training toad
．
The
training reflects
your
goals
．
It
’
s
like
swimming
upstream
，
think
strong
，
fast
and
flexible
．
If
you
are
running
a
marathon
，
the
goals are different and train accordingly !
39
Fat has taken
some time to develop
，
so it
will not be lost
overnight
．
Allow the hormonal
triggers(
生理诱因
)in
the
body
to
work
more
efficiently
to
regulate
volume
of
food
．
Taking
out
additional sugars is one
of the most important steps to regulate volumes of
food to switch off desire for
food
．
Once
a
goal
is
reached
，
do
not
go
back
to
what
you
did
before
．
When
people
finish
their
transformation
< br>，
the hormone profile is very weak to
fat deposition(
沉积
)
．
Every training session should
be a step toward a lasting
transformation
，
with a diet
improving the level of
exerelse
．
40
A
．
Don
’
t try to achieve too much
at once
．
B
．
Why do so few
people see their goals through?
C
．
Give yourself a
realistic timeline when it comes to fat
loss
．
D

Once I started working after graduating
from Wilfrid Laurier
University
，
I decided to stay
in the
workforce
and
go
to
school
part-time
．
I
began
my
journey
as
an
adult
41
in
the
Business
Administration
program
at
Wilfrid
Laurier
University
．
When
I
42
from
Laurier
，
a
colleague
introduced
me
to
the
Certified
Employee
Benefit
Specialist(CEBS)prog
ram
，
which
offered
a
professional
credential(
凭证
)related to my
field of
43
．
These
days
．
I keep my industry
knowledge
44
through reading industry
publications
，
45
relative
conferences
and
taking
an
annual
Continuing
Education
course
．
From
a
46
interest
perspective
< br>，
I
’
ve taken
music lessons and
47
in first
aid
，
gardening and website
development
．
Some
might
call
me
a
learning
48
．
I
honestly
can
’
t
imagine
a
time
when
I
want
to
stop
learning<
/p>
．
Sometimes
people
ask
me
why
I
49
to
take
courses
when
I
am
getting
close
to
“
< br>retirement
”
．
Wh
en I look to the
50
，
30 years of
sitting on the couch watching Netflix
isn
’
t the
kind of
life I want to live
．
I need a
reason to get out of bed in the
morning
，
and something to
keep me
51
active
．
I am looking at the Plain Language
program as an opportunity to learn a new skill
that will not
only
make
me
52
at
my
current
job
，
but
also
will
53
some
extra
income
once
I
leave
my
full-time career
behind
．
The days
of being able to
54
education after university
are long gone
．
So
，
continuous learning
will be
necessary to keep up with the pace of

The Guardian
gave us the bad
news that red and processed meat can shorten life.
But
The Daily
Telegraph
provided the good
news that exchanging one
portion(
部分
)of red meat a day
56
fish or
nuts could cut the
risk of early death by almost a
fifth

headlines
