Many people like traveling, but they cannot take their dogs wherever they go. Some people

let their dogs stay alone at home while others ask someone else to take care of their pets.

If you’re

leaving

your beloved pet at home for a holiday, it can

turn into a bad experience. Luckily,

you

don’t have to worry about your dogs anymore because Rover can cover for you while you are

on

leave. Rover is the latest service to offer at-

home dog boarding.

It’s a good alternative

(

替代物

) to

boarding your dog at a dog boarding kennel (

狗舍

) or your neighbor’s house.

The way Rover works is sort of like Airbnb.

Dog owners browse the “search” secti

on of the

site or app for pet sitters, which can be organized by zip code and available dates. Information of

pet sitters is provided, complete with many reviews, specific services and rates. Now Rover has

over 25,000 pet sitters in more than 5,000 US cities.

And they’re all experienced pet sitters.

After finding someone that meets your needs, just send messages to the pet sitter to arrange a

meeting. Then, like Rover says,

all that is left to do is relax! Rover’s pet sitters are encouraged to

send text and picture information throughout the day,

and if there’s a medical emergency

, the site

will send a vet. Besides,

don’t worry about a pet sitter who falls through

, because someone else

will soon take his or her place.

Happy doggie, happy travels

An earthquake is one of the most common natural disasters. It may cause great damage. So it

is wise to learn some simple safety tips to protect yourself or your family members.

Fragile items like those made of glass are easily broken and should usually be placed on a

lower surface, near the ground instead of placing them in the cupboards higher up. Never place

them near your bed, sofas and other furniture where you would be sitting or lying down. When

there is a strong movement, these pieces will fall on the floor directly and not on you.

There is a strong chance of short circuits (

短路

) and fire during an earthquake. Make sure

you turn off electrical connections and gas immediately when an earthquake happens.

During

an

earthquake,

lie

beneath

an

object

that

is

not

easily

damaged.

Do

not

go

near

objects that could directly fall on you. Never use the elevator to go down. Stay inside until the

shaking

stops

and

it

is

safe

to

go

outside.

Research

has

shown

that

most

injuries

happen

when

people inside buildings try to go out. Use the staircases at all times.

If

you

are

outdoors,

do

not

take

shelter

under

a

tree,

streetlights,

electric

poles

or

tall

buildings. If you are driving, stop your car and stay in a safe place. Do not park your car under a

tree or any tall object.

If trapped in debris (

瓦砾堆

), cover your

mouth with a handkerchief or clothing. Tap on a

pipe or the wall so that rescuers can find you. Use a whistle (

哨子

) if one is available. Never shout

for help. Shouting can cause you to breathe in dangerous amounts of dust. Do not light a match

because you may burn yourself. Do not move about or kick up dust.

Physical education, or gym class, isn’t required for

all high school students. In some schools,

it isn’t offered for some different reasons. But should high school students have physical education?

The answer is certainly “yes”.

Today many people don’t do sports. But as is known to all, doing sports is ver

y important for

an adult. Teaching teens the importance of a healthy lifestyle and making fitness plans now can

help teens put exercise in the first place as an adult.

High school isn’t that easy. Many students are under a lot of stress. Stress can be harm

ful to a

student’s studies and life. Doing sports can help them deal with stress better, helping them live a

happier life at school.

The American Heart Association says that 10 million kids and teens suffer from obesity (

肥

胖症

). Teens should get 60 minutes of physical activity per day to control their weight and to help

their bones get stronger. The increase in activities that

don’t get teens to

move around, such as

video

games

and

computer

activities,

means

many

teens

don’t

get

their

required

exercise.

Physical education classes act as a public health measure to encourage activity and help teens have

healthy weights.

Inactivity increases teens’ risk of developing many diseases. An active lifestyle offers a good

way of protection from these health problems. As much as 75 percent of health-care spending goes

toward

treating

medical

conditions

that

can

be

hindered

by

lifestyle

changes,

according

to

the

American College of Sports Medicine.

According to the President’s Council on Fitness, Sports and Nutrition (P

CFSN), students who

performed

five

hours

of

physical

activity

each

week

improved

their

academic

(< /p>

学

业

的

)

performance.

Students

from

programs

with

no

physical

activity,

who

used

the

extra

time

for

classroom

study,

did

not

perform

better

on

tests

than

those

who

gave

up

some

study

time

in

support of physical education.

27.

According to Paragraph 2, what does physical education in high school mean?

A. Helping teens learn to make good plans.

B. Removing the stress faced by teens at school.

C. Making teens attach importance to exercise later.

D. Getting teens to encourage adults to exercise.

29. According to the PCFSN, doing sports ______.

A. means making students choose between sports and studies

B. helps students make good use of all their time

C. means students adjust to their studies better

D. helps students do better in their studies

A. How high school students can live a better life.

B. How schools can help students love doing sports.

C. Why some schools consider physical education important.
