Meat, milk, cheese — just sme f the things prvided by gats. But nw we can als add fire safety t this list. As wildfires damage increasingly large areas f the planet each year, gatherds (牧羊人) may ffer a way f reducing the risk.
Wildfires are made pssible by ht, dry weather cnditins as well as a supply f dead plants that serve as fuel. We may have limited cntrl ver the frmer factr, but we can cntrl the latter. Reducing the fuel lad lwers the pssibility f wildfires ccurring, as well as the amunt f damage caused. This is where we can turn t gats t search fr a slutin, which are being used fr landscape management in a number f places arund the wrld, including Greece, Spain, Prtugal, Chile and a number f parts f the United States.
Gats have an extremely pwerful digestive (消化的) system. Many kinds f plants that are dangerus t ther animals can be easily eaten by gats. It’s nt just fully-grwn plants that gats are able t deal with: any seeds that pass thrugh a gat can’t survive and will nt grw. Human clearance teams have t wrry abut getting t the hard-t-reach places where plants grw but gats dn’t. They are skilled muntain climbers and when standing n their hind legs, they can reach up t tw metres t the plants that humans wuld struggle t reach. Because f this, using gats can reduce bth the pssibility f wrkplace accidents and the amunt f mney spent n fire prtectin measures. Gatherds have been fund t clear sme parts f land fr a third f the price f human cntrl teams.
Cst and safety aren’t the nly benefits. Gats are quieter than grass-cutting machines and peple usually prefer t see gats eating grass rather than litres f herbicide (除草剂). Children are ften attracted t see the gats at wrk and this prvides an pprtunity t educate peple abut preventing wildfires.
28．Why can gats help t prevent wildfires?
A．They are nt afraid f bad weather.B．They are easily cntrlled by gatherds.
C．They have the strngest digestive system.D．They can remve dead plants causing fire.
29．What is the main idea f Paragraph 3?
A．The fire prtectin measures that peple ften take.
B．The reasns why gats are used t prevent wildfires.
C．The difficulty human clearance teams have preventing fire.
D．The effects gats have n the natural balance f muntains.
30．What can be inferred frm the last paragraph?
A．Herbicide will nt be used t remve grass sn.
B．Children like gats because f their quiet character.
C．It’s a green way t prevent wildfires by using gats.
D．Herbicide wrks better than grass-cutting machines.
31．Which can be a suitable title fr the text?
A．Firefighting Gats.B．Clever Gatherds.
C．Damage Caused by Wildfires.D．Ways t Prevent Disasters.

Parkinsn’s is a prgressive brain disease which leads t shaky hands and slw mvement, and there is n cure. Tai Chi, a traditinal Chinese martial art that cmbines (结合) slw, gentle mvements with deep breathing and relaxatin, may be an effective means f reducing the suffering. Recently, the researchers say that thse wh practised the martial art twice a week had fewer cmplicatins (并发症) and better quality f life than thse wh didn’t. Experts say the findings back up previus studies n the benefits f exercise fr thse with Parkinsn’s.
The study, frm Shanghai Jia Tng University Schl f Medicine, mnitred the health f hundreds f Parkinsn’s patients fr up t five years.

This grup als saw fewer falls, less back pain and dizziness, with memry and cncentratin prblems als lwer than in the ther grup. At the same time, sleep and quality f life cntinuusly imprved.
Prf. Alastair Nyce, prfessr in neurlgy and neurepidemilgy at Queen Mary University f Lndn, called it “an imprtant study”—the psitive effects n aspects f mtr (运动的) and nn-mtr functins are impressive — but said there were limitatins in its design, and mre tests were needed.
“We already recmmend Tai Chi, as well as ther frms f exercise, but understanding which frms f exercise are mst beneficial is an imprtant gal t imprve the lng-term management f patients,” he said.
32．Why was the study cnducted?
A．T find a cure fr Parkinsn’s disease.
B．T imprve the sleep quality f Parkinsn’s patients.
C．T remve the misunderstanding f the previus studies.

D．Back pain and dizziness were relieved in the Tai Chi grup.
34．What can we learn frm Prf. Alastair Nyce’s wrds?

C．It is unnecessary t d mre related studies.
D．Imprve the lng-term management f patients is impssible.

A gentle tuch n her hair called her mind back. She raised her head and saw the familiar face f her mther. “Here yu cme! I’ve been lking fr yu,” she said, fatigued but relieved. Jenny culdn’t help thrwing herself int her mther’ arms. “Mum, I’m s srry and thank yu fr all yu have dne fr me.” she expressed her sincere aplgy and great gratitude. Hearing this, her mther smiled, patting her back gently. It dawned n Jenny that Mum’s lve was invisible and intangible, but always surrunded us.
