Weaving hammocks is an art that takes a sharp eye，a skilled hand and lots of patience．But in Lenwood Haddock’s case，being blind works to his advantage．His trained，sensitive hands are acute ly aware of every step of the process．Since beginning his craft in 1986，Lenwood has woven about 145，000 perfect hammocks．
Lenwood lost his sight in 1973，at age 18，during a hunting accident．“My whole working career has been blind，”he says．He first found a job as a woodworker, but when that organization closed，the North Carolina Division of Services for the Blind connected him with Hatte ras Hammocks．On his first day of work．“I did a total of one hammock,”Lenwood recalls，laughing．“And then I came home and lay down to sleep．I lift weights，but I wasn’t as tough as I thought until I started weaving．It takes a lot of energy，and you’re standing up all day．”
In time，however，Lenwood found he had a knack(窍门)for the job．At first he worked on-site at the company，but after a year Lenwood moved his operation to the home workshop where he had worked for 10 years during his woodworking days．
There，he creates dozens of hammocks each week from ropes in a variety of sizes．One day，he realized the step counter on his phone recorded him walking eight miles without ever leaving his shop．
The process of weaving a hammock involves making and catching hundreds of loops(环)．A single missed stitch(织针)creates a hole that can widen and make the hammock uncomfortable or even dangerous to use．Experienced weavers miss loops sometimes，but to his company’s knowledge，Lenwood has never turned in a hammock with even one dropped stitch．Lenwood’s skilled fingers are quick to catch and fix any mistakes．
The company has acquired other brands and changed its name to The Hammock Source．Today，it is the world’s largest maker and seller of hammocks，all built by hand．
However，Lenwood’s routine has changed little．He works his fingers back and forth across the rows，looping the rope and pulling it．With every hammock，Lenwood presents himself a perfect product．“I'm not sure how sighted people do it，”he admits．
24．Lenwood stopped doing his first job because_________．
A．the company failed to go on with its business
B．it was for people with good eyesight only
C．the company didn’t produce hammocks
D．he was not skilled at doing woodwork
25．It can be learned from the passage that Lenwood_________．
A．has been blind all through his life B．used to work as a hunter to support his family
C．was born in the 1950s with good eyesight D．has worked as a hammock weaver for 10 years
26．What do we know about Lenwood from the 4th paragraph?
A．He moved very often while he was working on a hammock．
B．He had to make different ropes before he wove a hammock．
C．He had to stay 8 miles away from the worksite to complete it．
D．He needed ropes of about 8 miles long to complete a hammock．
27．What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 5 mean?
A．Lenwood was very skilled with his hands．
B．Lenwood was very careful with his work．
C．Lenwood refused to hand in incomplete hammocks．
D．Lenwood dropped his stitch only once while working．

The most popular PE class at Waukegan High School in Illinois，US，takes place in a basement field house．
It is the school’s version of CrossFit，the difficult physical exercise that has exploded in popularity over the last 16 years at thousands of gyms．It has more than one million devotees and a professional competition shown on ESPN．
Schools around the Chicago area ha ve adopted CrossFit to interest students at a time of a rising weight problem among young people，and most say it really works compared with traditional gym classes．
“I think it’s a great way to teach kids lifelong fitness，especially those kids who aren’t interested in hockey，soccer or basketball，”said the teacher，Tracy Haraf from Illinois’Stony Creek Elementary, which devotes half of its PE days to CrossFit exercises．“They think it's tough，but I think they have a lot of fun doing it．”
Senior Alexus Wiltz，18，said the workout had improved her performance on the basketball court．“I noticed I was faster．I paid more attention on the court，my defending was better,”she said after a recent class．“It just really helped me．”
But some doctors and researchers advise caution，saying the exercises that involve lifting weights can lead to injuries，particularly when performed by few inexperienced people．
Doctor Craig Finlayson at Lurie Children’s Hospital of Chicago said he was worried that while strength training is fine for kids，heavy weights could be trouble for teenagers who might hurt themselves by trying to do too much or using poor form．
CrossFit Inc．，the company that certifies trainers and licenses gyms，disagrees that its program is more dangerous than other fitness routines．Gym teachers in Waukegan’s Greg Moisio，whose two-campus school has about 73％kids taking CrossFit each day，also say the risk of injury can be reduced with proper teaching and CrossFit’s flexibility．
28．Why have schools around the Chicago area adopted CrossFit?
A．To improve students’performance in competitive sports．
B．To introduce something more challenging to the students．
C．To make traditional gym classes more attractive．
D．To help solve the students’weight problem．
29．How do the students react to the strength training?
A．73％agree it has a bad influence． B．They show little interest in it．
C．The majority believe it’s effective． D．Most of them think it’s of no use．
30．What does the underlined word“workout”in Paragraph 5 refer to?
A．The physical exercise． B．The basketball court．
C．Wiltz’s performance． D．A lot of fun．
31．What can we learn from the last paragraph?
A．CrossFit is more dangerous than other fitness routines．
B．The number of the injured in CrossFit classes is rising．
C．Kids may protect themselves if they’re trained properly．
D．A great number of kids taking CrossFit lack flexibility．

Sweden is so good at recycling that，for several years，i t has imported rubbish from other countries to keep its recycling plants going．Less than I percent of Swedish household waste was sent to landfill last year or any year since 2011．
We can only dream of such an effective system in the UK，which is why we end up paying expensive transport costs to send rubbish to be recycled overseas rather than paying fines to send it to landfill under The Landfill Tax of 1996．
Why are we sending waste to Sweden? Their system is so far ahead because of a culture of looking after the environment．Sweden was one of the first countries to carry out a heavy tax on fossil fuels in 1991 and now sources almost half its electricity from renewables．
“Swedish people are quite keen on being out in nature and they are aware of what we need do on nature and environmental issues．We worked on communications for a long time to make people aware not to throw things outdoors so that we can recycle and reuse，”says Anna-Carin Gripwall，director of communications for Avfall Sverige，the Swedish Waste Management’s recycling association．
Over time，Sweden has performed a related national recycling policy so that even though private companies undertake most of the business of importing and burning waste，the energy goes into a national heating network to heat homes through the freezing Swedish winter．
“That’s a key reason that we have this district network，so we can make use of the heating from the waste plants．In the southern part of Europe they don’t make use of the heating from the waste，it just goes out the chimney．Here we use it as a substitute for fossil fuel，”Ms Gripwall says．
32．What can be inferred from Paragraph 1?
A．The residents are too lazy to send their rubbish to the landfill．
B．Most of the household rubbish is sent to recycling plants in Sweden．
C．The Swedish government refused to buy rubbish from other countries．
D．There isn’t much household waste in Sweden because of its population．
33．In Paragraph 2 the author expresses that_______．
A．UK is a country that exports its rubbish
B．UK has paid a lot of fines under the Landfill Tax
C．Expensive transport cost in UK has been already ended up
D．Expenses on the transport of rubbish in England are too high
34．According to Ms Gripwall，Sweden set up the recycling network in order to_______．
A．change the life style of the Swedish people
B．reduce the amount of rubbish in the landfill
C．make good use of the energy from the waste
D．increase the income of the private companies
35．Which of the following best summarizes the passage?
A．Landfills in Sweden． B．Rubbish from abroad．
C．Fight against pollution． D．Successful recycling system．

Listening to others requires entering actively and imaginatively into the situation and trying to understand a frame of reference different from your own，and yet so many of us don’t listen properly as we should． 36 It means trying to see the problem the way the speaker sees it．
Here are some ways to become a better listener．
37 Make sure you actually hear fully what your friend is saying，and you can’t cut your friend off verbally carelessly．While you might intend to help move the conversation along，your friend might feel as if what he has said need to be continually talked over or sound anything but interesting．
Nod to encourage the conversation along．A better option to let your friend know you’re interested in what he says is just to nod along from time to time．Sometimes you nod along but then start thinking about something unrelated to what he could say． 38
Tune out background noise．If you’re easily distracted by laughter，glasses clinking，children crying，you might need to work extra hard to focus only on your friend． 39 Don’t hesitate to tell them that the background noises are getting in the way．If you can’t focus，try moving to another area．
No texting or looking at your phone ！ 40 For you see，when you’re sitting in front of someone，he is the most important person in your world at that moment．
A．Practice silence when someone else is talking．
B．If necessary，ask your friend to repeat himself．
C．Listening is more than just sitting silently while someone else talks．
D．Whoever is calling or texting can wait until you’re done with your conversation．
E．Questions you raise must clearly be motivated by curiosity about the speaker’s views．
F．In this case，try to push away your thoughts until you’re absorbed in what your friend is saying．
G．Remembering ideas from previous conversations proves that your attention is kept and encourages your friend to continue．
