You

go
the
extra mile
to
help
families
and
try
to
bring
everyone
together
to

B
Before
my
daughter,
Evelyn,
was
born,
I
eagerly
expected
her
first
year
of
life.
I
imagined
celebrating
every
milestone
---
bonding
with
her
as
a
newborn,
seeing
her
smile
for
the
first
time,
hearing
her
say
her
first
word.
1
didn't
think
of
feeding
tubes,
long
hospital
stays or
an organ
transplant(
移植
). For
Evelyn,
the
first
year
included
all
and
more.
Evelyn
came
into
this
world
at
just
34
weeks,
weighing
less
than
3
pounds.
Genetic
testing
revealed
she
had
Alagille
syndrome,
a
genetic
disorder
that
can
damage
the
liver(
肝脏
)
,heart
and
other organs.
Soon,
we
received
the
news
that baby
Evelyn
needed
a
liver
transplant,
Our
family
moved
nearer
to
UPMC
Children's
Hospial
of
Pittsburgh
so
that
we
were
closer
if a liver
was
available for
Evelyn.
When
Evelyn
was
added
to
the
organ donation
wait
list,
I was under
the
liver
allocation
policy
in
place
at
that
time,which
was
map
-
based.
This
policy
lacks
any
special
consideration
for
transplant
candidates,
We
were
told
it would
likely
take
three
months.
Just
then,
a
new
policy
for
liver
allocation
was
tried
the
new
system,
the
sickest
child
patients
get
first
priority(
优
先
)
。
The
new policy
was
only
in
efect
for a
litle
over
a
week,
But
in
that
period,
Evelyn
received
her
liver
transplant.
Had
it
been
just one
week
earler
or
later,
we would not
have
received
the
call.
As
Evelyn
recovers
from
her
transplant,
we
are
grateful
for
the
change.
|
am
also
sad,
beeause
the
new
policy
was
short
-
lived.
That
means
another mom
like
me
might
not
receive
that phone
call
with
good
news.
Other
children
should
have
the
same
opportunity
as
Evelyn
to
live
healthy,
happy
lives.
When
it
comes
to
liver
transplant
policy,
we
can
and
must do
better
for
children.
24.
What
probably
happened to
Evelyn
shorly
after
she
was
born?
A.
She
failed
to
give
a
smile.
B.
She
had
a
serious
liver
failure.
C.
She
said
her first
word quickly.
D.
She
suffered
from
a
heart
attack.
25. Why did
the
author's
family
move
nearer
to
the
hospital?
A.
To
save
time.
B.
To
Have
money,
C.
To
see
a doctor.
D.
To
get
first
priority,
26 What

long.

27. What
does

want
to
express
in
the
last
pargraph?
A.
We
must
guarantee
kids
have
healthy
livers.
B.
Kids
should
have
chances of a
liver
transplant,
C.
The
sickest
kids

In
a new
study,
researchers
analyzed
information
from
more
than 18 ,000
people
who
provided
blood
ipants
reported
whether they
exercised
regularly
,
and
if
80,
what
type
of
exercises
they
typically
did.
The
researchers
hen
scanned
participants'
blood,
looking
for
genes(
基因
)
that
are
tied
to
an
increased
risk
of
obesity(
肥
胖
)
.
Next,
the
researchers
examined
whether
certain
exercises
seemed
to
balance
this
risk.
Overall,
people
who
reported
doing
any
type
of
regular
exercises
tended
to
have
a
lower
BMI(
体
重指数
)
than
those
who
didn't.
This
was
true
even
among
people
who
were
genetically
easy
to
become
overweight.
But
one
exercise
stood
out as
the
one
with
the
strongest
anti
-
obesity
effcet:
jogging.
Partitipants
with
obesity
genes
who
jogged
tended
to
have
a
lower
BMI than
people
with
similar
genetic
risk
who
did
not
jog.
But
for those
who
loathe
jogging,
fear
not:
Five
other
types
of
exercises
were
also
tied
to
a
lower
BMI
among
individuals
at
risk
for
obesity.
These
included
mountain
climbing,
balloo
dancing
and
walking.
The
benefits
of
these
exercises
were
the
biggest
among
those
with
the
greatest
genetie
risk of
obesity.
Interestingly,several
other types
of
exercises
failed to counteract
the
genetic
risk
of
obesity.
These
included
cycling,stretching
exercises
and
swimming.
The
findings
don't
mean
that
these
latter
exercises
can't
help
with
weight
control.
It's
just
that
they
didn't
seem
to
counteract
the
genetic
tendency
to
gain
weight.
There
could
be
several
reasons
for
this.
The
researchers
noted
that,
for
the
average
Joe
or
Jane,
cylcing
and
stretching
exercises
tend
to
require
less
energy
than
the
exercises
that were
tied to
a
lower
obesity risk.
In
addition,exercising
in
water, as
happens
with
swimming,
may
increase
appetite.
28. What
does
the
undertined
word
loathe
in
the
third
paragraph
mean?
A.
Dislike.
B. Display.
C.
Disturb.
D.
Discourage.
29.
Which
exercise
has the
least
effect
on
balancing
obesity
genes?
A.
Mountain
climbing.
B.
Ballroom
dancing.
D.
Riding
a
bicyele.
C.
Running
slowly.
30. What
does
the
author
indicate
in
the
last
pargraph?
A.
Swimming
doesn't
help one
lose
weight.
B.
Diving
may
make
a
person
eat more
food.
C.
Average
people
put
less
energy
into
exercises.
D.
Stretching
exercises
will
become
popular.
31. Which
of the
ollowing
is the
best
title?
A.
Jogging
Less
Leads to
Genetic
Obesity
B.
Regular
Exercises Tend
to
Lower
BMI
C.

Risks
of

AI,
this
autonomous

offers
custorners
an
app

--
similar
to
one
used
when
ordering
a
taxi
-
allowing
them
to
choose
when
and
where
their
packages
are
delivered.
Cormpanies
like
Tesla
and
Amazon have
invested
heavily
in
autonomous
vehicles,
which
have
the
potential
to
create
a
sea
of
changes
in
business
and
society.
Resembling
something
like a
green
egg on
wheels,
Kar
-
go's
aim
is
to
reduce
the
cost
of
what's
known
as
the
mile
delivery
challenge
.
This
is
the
final
stage
of
your online
package's
journey
,from a
local
warehouse
to
your
front
door.
Labor
costs,
paying
drivers,
the
cost
of fuel
and
the
vehicle
costs for
maintaining
small
vehicles
all
contribute
to
making
this
the
most
expensive part
of the
delivery
process.
The
first
part
of
the
package's
journey
is
far
cheaper,
with
high
volumes
of
packages
being
transported
to
and
from
the
same
location.
However,
at
the
other
end,
drivers
deliver
smaller
shipments
to several
dfferent
locations
一
where
the
recipient
may
not even
be
available
to
collect.
With
the
latest
AI
tchnology,
Kar

go
will
deliver
goods
safely
,sustainably
and
in
style.
'The

in
order to

itself
deal
with
new
future
obstacles(

)
on

Kar

go
also
has
its
very
own
internal

system,
allowing
the
vehicle
transport
packages in
the
correct
order for

By
2030
,
the
Society
of
Motor
Manufacturers
and
Traders
predicts
the
autonomous

could
add
$$
62
billion
in
economic
growth
in
the UK,
creating
more
than
420,000
new jobs.
