3 . Greg Dailey closed his picture frame store due to the coronavirus pandemic (冠状病毒大流行), and his second job of delivering newspapers became his primary source of income.

Dailey’s grocery trips began when one of his elderly customers asked him for a favor. “Mrs. Ross called me on Wednesday before my store shutting down and asked if I could throw the newspaper closer to her house,” he tells Yahoo Life. “A couple of days later, I was standing in a grocery, and I called her and asked if she needed anything from a grocery. She was astonished. Moments later, she called me back and asked if I wouldn’t mind grabbing something from Mrs. Miller across the street.”

Soon, Dailey’s 800 customers found a note he wrote tucked in with their newspaper, offering his help. “And the next day I just decided, ‘You know, what? If there are two people that live within a hundred feet of each other having issues getting the essential things they need, I’m going to put out a note.’”

The words spread not only to his community but to surrounding ones. Since then, Dailey, with the help of his family, developed a system to keep track of the orders. To date, Dailey has made more than 600 trips to the grocery for his neighbors and delivered everything to their homes for free. “These last three months has changed my life… I get emotional because some of them have become really special to me,” he says.

Dailey reopened his frame store on June 15, and he promised to continue to help seniors not only with groceries but with anything else they need. He knows those he helps will remain a part of his life going forward.

“It’s moments like this, we need to step back and take a look in ourselves and realize that we can do more… and it’s something I live by,” Dailey says. “If you have the opportunity to do something nice for someone, just do it.”

4 . During the COVID-19 pandemic (流行病), some people found their exercise was greatly reduced. However, it was an attraction for others to increase their physical activity. With the change of working from home, some physical activity was reduced. People took this newly freed up time as a chance to add exercise to their day, with online fitness programs and health apps (应用软件) reporting an increase.

However, the early drive to exercise appears to have been short-lived for many, with a study comparing activity levels between the first and second waves of COVID-19 in Victoria finding most people reported a reduction in their physical activity levels the second time around because of a shortage of encouragement. A study found that COVID-19 has reduced physical activity and increased sedentary (久坐不动的) behavior, and the effects could be lasting.

Continuing concerns about COVID-19 have led to carefulness about returning to public spaces such as gyms. But also, with many people changing their exercise habits and setting up home gyms during the pandemic, it’s become much more convenient to exercise at home. It’s clear for many of us that COVID-19 changed how and how much we exercise. But the changes don’t necessarily have to be for the worse.

People who changed to online workouts (锻炼), fitness apps and home gyms during the pandemic said their exercise was less satisfying, less enjoyable and they felt less active com-pared with doing exercise in gyms. Besides the physical effects, people reported missing the social communication, friendship, and being avoidable of the gym. In-person classes also offer the advantages of management and instruction, which can help make sure workouts are completed safely and effectively.

However, online workouts, fitness apps and near-home workouts are likely here to stay, and offer many advantages, such as no need to travel to the gym and convenience, making it easy to fit in a workout while working and shouldering family responsibilities.

1. How do some people add exercise to their day during the pandemic?

A．By returning to public places.	B．By driving to a lonely park.
C．By turning to the Internet.	D．By taking face-to-face classes.

2. What can we learn about exercise during the pandemic from the text?

A．People have changed exercise habits.	B．People like to build their home gym.
C．People strongly wish to exercise.	D．People refuse to go back to public gyms.

3. What does paragraph 4 mainly focus on?

A．The disadvantages of exercising at home.

B．The way to exercise during the pandemic.

C．The examples of good exercise at home.

D．The reasons for people changing home exercise.

4. What does the author think of exercising at home in the last paragraph?

A．It is difficult.	B．It is worrying.
C．It is challenging.	D．It is helpful.

5 . Many regions and cities across China have declared a “2.5-day-a-week” vacation system to boost consumption and tourism now that the novel coronavirus outbreak has been largely controlled in the country. Since March, Hebei, Zhejiang and Jiangxi provinces, Longnan in Gansu province and Lichuan in Hubei province have launched the 2.5-day-a-week vacation system, providing residents a longer weekend to spend with their families.

The State Council, China’s Cabinet, had proposed a “4.5-day flexible working system” as early as August 2015 to promote tourism. But in many regions that became a reality only recently, when the authorities began promoting consumption and tourism, which dropped drastically because of the strict epidemic prevention and control measures.

Tourism and transportation industries, particularly the aviation industry, have suffered heavily because of the suspension of business in the past three months. The National Bureau of Statistics' data show the country's total retail sales of consumer goods declined 19 percent year-on-year in the first quarter of 2020.

As the epidemic situation has largely been controlled now, on-the-spot consumption and tourism activity is recovering gradually. Many regions are looking at the Labor Day holiday to increase consumption.

They are also keen on promoting a 4.5-day-a-week flexible working system to allow people time to undertake short-distance self-driving trips to boost the retail and hospitality sectors. Unlike long-distance public transport trips, short-distance self-driving trips reduce infection risk.

However, many feel the well-intentioned policy will be difficult to be carried out in enterprises that cannot even guarantee two-day weekends. The impact of the pandemic on the economy will also make it difficult for some enterprises to sanction longer weekends. It might be easier to introduce extended weekends in government and institutions, but some fear that reduced working hours for government agencies will inconvenience the public. Therefore, this good-intentioned policy's future boils down to effective practice.

1. Why do many cities in China launch a “2.5-day-a-week” holiday system?

A．To encourage purchase and tourism.

B．To reduce residents’ working pressure.

C．To control the novel coronavirus outbreak.

D．To provide residents with a longer weekend with their families.

2. What is the last but one paragraph mainly about?

A．the intention of the policy.

B．the impact of the pandemic on the economy.

C．the attitude of enterprises towards the policy.

D．the challenges for enterprises to carry out the policy.

3. Who are the least likely to enjoy the “2.5-day-a-week” holiday?

A．Government officials.	B．Employees in institutions.
C．Workers in factories.	D．College students.

4. What is the best title for the text?

A．Enterprises cannot guarantee two-day weekends.

B．The novel coronavirus outbreak largely controlled.

C．Tourism and transportation industries suffered heavily.

D．Longer weekends to boost consumption and tourism.

A British math expert says all the COVID-causing virus that     1    (current) exists in the world could easily fit inside a single can of soda. The finding shows just how much damage can     2    (cause) by very small virus particles.

Christian Yates of the University of Bath studied worldwide rates of new COVID-19 infections and made estimates of the amount of virus in     3     infected person’s blood. He found that there are about two quintillion - or two billion billion - SARS-CoV-2 virus particles in the world at any one time.

Yates said he came up     4     that result by measuring the distance across one virus particle - about 100 nanometers, or 100 billionths of a meter. He then found the total amount of space     5     the virus takes up.

He said the total is still less than can be contained in a single 330 milliliter soda can. He noted that total includes the fact that the particles will leave a lot of space in between when     6    (place) together.

“It’s     7    (astonish) to think that all the trouble, the disruption, the hardship and the     8    (lose) of life that has resulted over the last year could constitute just a few mouthfuls,” Yates said in a report on his findings.

More than 2.3 million people     9    (die) in the COVID-19 pandemic so far. There have been about 107 million confirmed     10    (case) worldwide.

10 . Jamin Crow waited silently for the bull moose (麋鹿) to turn and face him. In the cold, the teen stood with his gun resting on a branch. He waited and waited. Then the moose turned, and his brother started to yell, "Shoot!” If Crow didn't shoot, his brother would. So Crow took a deep breath and pulled the trigger. "I look at my brother and he's giving me the happiest look I've ever seen," he says.

Crow lives in Bethel, in the remote region of Alaska. For generations, his family has practiced subsistence (生存) hunting to get food on the table. The process hasn't changed much. The Crows use motor boats and snowmobiles to get to their moose camp which serves as a home base while they're on hunting trips. "Food is very expensive here. You have to ship everything up," Crow says. "We don't go out just for the antlers (鹿角).We're not looking for prize. We're not hunting for something big. We're looking for meat to feed our families. "

Crow is one of three Alaska Native students-along with Kaylee King and Ethan Lincoln — who recorded their hunting tradition before they graduated last spring. Their record was chosen as a finalist in this year's NPR Student Record Challenge. The three students say hunting helped them get through the isolation of the pandemic, when their schools and many other activities like sports were shut down because of COVIE-19. The students explain that, as time goes by, fewer and fewer people are practicing hunting.

"It makes me really sad because the way we used to do things is so different from how we do them now," Crow says. "Even our language is slowly fading away." For the students, the practice of hunting allows them to connect with older generations. "Whenever I go out hunting with my granny, I'm always hearing past stories about when my dad was a kid and he went hunting or my late grandpa how he would just take the family up." Crow says.
