Devon Gallagher, a college graduate from Philadelphia, wants the world to know exactly here she's been during her worldwide vacation in a special way.
The traveler, who was born with a bone disease, had her right leg amputated( k)at the age of four. Although the amputation caused setbacks for Gallagher early on, she now sees it as nothing short of inspiration for living her best life.
To spread that message, Gallagher has taken to social media, where she shares photos of her travels across the globe, but instead of simply using a geo-tag, she writes her location across her artificial leg before taking a picture.
Now she has been taking pictures across the Continent, which show her cycling over the canal in Amsterdam relaxing on a wall overlooking the city of Barcelona, posing with a waffle in Brussels, taking in the spectacular Parthenon temple in Athens and enjoying a river cruise in Budapest, all with the well-known locations written on her artificial leg “I get a new leg every two years and I can choose the design on it. One day I had a sudden thought to get a chalk-board, "Gallagher said. "My mum and grand-mother weren’t too keen on the idea, but my friends thought it was great and told me to go for it, so I did.”
Gallagher said people often stare when shes writing on her leg, but once she shares the photos she receives only positive feedback."My leg hasn,t stopped me from doing anything I've wanted to do, " she said. "I don,t know if it's my determination to prove to myself that I can do it, but regardless, I've been able to keep up with my peers and lead a pretty great life, Gallagher shows us that you should never let anything stand in the way of your dreams. And if life gives you an artificial leg, make art

On a bright summer morning, many young swimmers gather at a local swimming pool in the state of Maryland. They are members of a competitive summer swim team. As they practice their strokes and cut seconds off of their times, they are getting lots of physical exercise and vitamin D from the sun. However, the benefits of belonging to a sports team are not just health-related. Team sports also help to build many life skills.
The coach of the swim team is Paul Waas. He explains how swim team teaches the team members skills like discipline (纪律) and focus. “I think the discipline comes into play when you’re talking about focusing on the details that your coaches are saying as it makes you faster rather than just going up and down the pool the same way you have every time. So, when you can focus on what you’re doing right and what you can do better, then you’ll see the improvement. I think they see that from their peers and then it challenges them to do better themselves.”
But discipline and focus are just two of the life skills that team sports can teach. There is also responsibility, goal-setting and working within a group.
Again, here is Coach Waas. “I’ve had kids who, as 7-year-olds on the team, could barely pay attention in practice and were only interested in who was going first. And now they’ve come back as 8-year-olds and they’ve set some goals. And now they have things that they want to achieve. They see the record board and they want their name up there.”
These life skills can help a child later in life. An article published in the magazine Fast Company notes reasons why a company should consider employing former athletes. The writers argue that people who played sports in school are: focused on goals, strong communicators, team players, good at managing their time, and resilient-meaning they do not give up when things get difficult.
Some studies have found that team sports could be especially good for women. A series of studies by the company Ernst Young found that 90 percent of women in so-called “C-suite” positions (like chief executive officer, or CEO and chief financial officer, or CFO) at several major companies had played sports.
【1】What can we infer from paragraph 1?
A.Bright summer mornings are perfect for swimming.
B.Swimming can be beneficial to us more than in health.
C.Being admitted to a swimming team can be competitive.
D.Being on a sports team benefits children in many aspects.
【2】Which of the following will Paul Waas agree with?
A.Stress from peers makes kids discouraged.
B.Kids may get inspired by peers’ improvements.
C.Kids can make improvements once they join a team.
D.7-year-old kids in the swimming team can learn nothing.
【3】The author wrote the passage to ________.
A.analyze an upsetting social problem
B.advocate taking up various team sports
C.appeal to readers to care for sports safety
D.share with readers his personal experiences

Garbage sorting has become a hot issue around China, especially after Shanghai began carrying out a regulation on July 1.
Beijing, as a forerunner in environmental protection, has thus been expected to follow suit. The capital of the country has long been campaigning for sorting and recycling household waste, as part of its environmental drive for sustainable growth, local media reported.
The current regulation gives garbage sorting responsibilities to government departments, property management groups and other organizations. It also gives rules for companies, outlining how they’re responsible for waste collection, transportation and treatment. Only individuals are not subject to responsibilities.
The long-awaited revision will soon change the situation, “Taking out the trash without sorting it properly will be illegal,” said Sun Xinjun, director of the Beijing Commission of Urban Management. In Shanghai, violators are now fined up to 200 yuan ($30)for trash-sorting violations. The maximum fine in Beijing will not be less than that, he said.
The Beijing city government first set out to promote garbage sorting in 2009. Authorities have since called on citizens to sort their household waste into four types-recyclable waste, kitchen trash, dangerous waste and others-and leave it in a corresponding dustbin or trash can. Blue-colored dustbins signify items within are recyclable, green represents kitchen trash, red corresponds to dangerous materials and grey to other waste.
To promote the awareness of garbage sorting and expand the base of participants, authorities have employed workers to help residents on the spot. With intelligent devices, those who throw in recyclable waste at given sites will be rewarded with bonus points, which can be used to buy daily goods. At some communities, there are no color-coded dustbins. Instead, a scheduled garbage collection service is offered to help improve the environment. In other communities, workers offer a door-to-door service to collect recyclables or kitchen waste.
Beijing Environmental Sanitation Engineering Group has been promoting new garbage sorting facilities such as recycling cabinets and smart kitchen waste trash cans since 2016, Xinhua News Agency reported. Nearly 26,000 metric tons of household waste is generated across Beijing on a daily basis and 29 terminal garbage disposal facilities are working at full capacity. Nearly 9.3 million tons of household waste was processed in the city last year.
【1】According to the passage, which dustbins should some used coke cans be thrown into?
A.Grey-colored dustbins. B.Red-colored dustbins.
C.Green-colored dustbins. D.Blue-colored dustbins.
【2】We can learn from the passage that ________.
A.new technology has been applied to help deal with garbage
B.Beijing carried out a more severe rule on garbage sorting than Shanghai
C.the change of the current regulation has aroused objection among citizens
D.the amount of household waste in Beijing is far from something disturbing
【3】What is the best title for the text?
A.How to Sort Garbage in China B.The Current Regulation in Beijing
C.Garbage Collection in Beijing D.Waste Recycling Project Counts
【4】The passage can be sorted as ________.
A.a book review B.a travel brochure
C.an environment report D.a geography essay

阅读下面短文,根据其内容写一篇60词左右的内容概要。
Without water, your body would stop working properly. Water makes up more than half of your body weight, and a person can’t survive for more than a few days without it. Why? Your body has lots of important jobs and it needs water to do many of them. For instance, your blood, which contains a lot of water, carries oxygen to all the cells of your body. Without oxygen, those tiny cells would die and your body would stop working.
Most people think they can get water only from drinking water. However, they can get enough liquid through the drinks they consume every day. These include water, fruit juice, coffee, soda, iced tea, and other drinks. Your body doesn’t get water only from drinking water. Any liquid you drink contains water. Lots of foods contain water, too. Fruit contains quite a bit of water, which you could probably tell if you’ve ever eaten a peach or a plum and felt the juice dripping down your chin! Vegetables, also, contain a lot of water.
How much water should people drink? Many people believe they are supposed to drink eight glasses of water a day, or about two liters. Why? Because that is what they have been told all their life. But a new report offers some different advice. Experts say people should obey their bodies; they should drink as much water as they feel like drinking. The report says most people meet their daily needs for liquid by letting thirst be their guide.
You lose water when you breathe, sweat and so on. So you need to supplement (补充) enough liquid to stay healthy. If you don’t get enough water, you could become dehydrated (脱水). If you get very dehydrated, your body will no longer have enough liquid to circulate. This is very dangerous. Dehydration also can keep you from being as fast and sharp as you’d like to be. Serious dehydration can even make you sick.
