21、A heart-stopping video shows that a group of hikers were able to keep their cool as a curious black bear approached them—and one even stayed composed enough to snap a selfie （自拍）.

The black bear pulls one of the women by the leg with its paws（爪子）,moving towards her across the path as she tries to remain completely still.

The woman remains fearless as the animal isn't into her and continues walking up the path, giving the group an opportunity to make a swift exit.

22、When Shanghai introduced a new garbage-sorting policy (垃圾类政策) in July last year, the city’s residents (居民) took some time to get used to it. They joked that every time they took out their garbage, the staff (工作人员) standing by the bins would ask, “What kind of garbage are you?”

Starting on May 1, Beijing joined many Chinese cities by introducing a new garbage-sorting policy, People’s Daily reported. Residents should sort their garbage into four groups: kitchen, recyclable, hazardous (有害的) and other waste.

23、Angela was driving back home with her kids, 5-year-old Lexi and 10-week-old Peter and the car was packed with all the necessities for a trip: toys, milk powder and snacks.

As she was driving, Angela found they were on a part of road that was under construction. The long journey had begun to bother Peter, who started crying. Angela inserted a nursery rhyme CD into the stereo and hoped it would help.

The warm sun and the soft music had a relaxing effect. In no time, both children became quiet. Angela’s eyes close too, for just a few seconds.

When Lexi suddenly woke up, she found it was dark. Airbags obscured all the windows. Lexi’s neck hurt and Peter was crying loudly. She told herself to get out of the car, but when she pulled the handle, the door was stuck. Turning onto her side, Lexi kicked at the door until it flopped (猛地打开) open and the car was filled with sunlight.

That’s when Lexi spotted her mother in the front seat. She tried to wake her up but Angela didn’t respond. Lexi looked over the side of the SUV and saw they were on a steep hill. It was only a large tree that kept the car from rolling down.

Her shoes had come off, but Lexi felt no pain as she climbed over glass, rocks, and pine needles up the embankment (路堤) to the highway her mother had driven off.

A driver, Jeremy, was travelling on the highway when he saw a tiny child jumping up and down, waving her arms. He pulled over. “Help!” Lexi cried out. “My mom needs help!” Jeremy looked up and down the tree-lined road but saw nobody. The barefoot child pointed to the destroyed SUV downhill.

26、阅读下面短文，根据其内容写一篇60词左右的内容概要。

Herbal medicine，which has been used for medicinal purposes，is the use of plants to treat disease. Many herbalists use the entire plant，from the flowers，stems，leaves，and roots，in the form of everything from teas to tablets. These plants contain natural，chemical things that can treat the body for a variety of diseases，such as allergies（过敏症），asthma（哮喘）and cancer，among others.

Nowadays an increasing number of people prefer to adopt these plants to treat their diseases because，compared with chemical medicine，herbal medicine has its own advantages. Herbal medicine is more effective than chemical medicine for certain diseases. The chemical medicine prescribed by a chemist could have negative side effects，which，however，many of the herbal medicine does not have. If any，they are softer than chemical medicine. Obesity is the cause of many of the health problems. Herbal medicine can help weight loss more effectively and improve overall health.

However，cure using herbal medicine would take some time，and therefore people are supposed to possess enough patience. Worse still，herbal medicine contains a variety of ingredients（成分）and people have to be sure that their body agrees with the ingredients and that it is not allergic. A point worth mentioning here is that some herbal medicine for certain illnesses may have negative side effects. These side effects may not be shown at once，but would take months or even years. In the first stages，if the herbal medicine is not agreeing with you，it is wise to stop using it.

When used correctly，herbs can help treat a variety of diseases. But keep in mind that the herbal medicine industry is not regulated，so herbal products are sometimes labeled wrongly and may contain additives that are not listed on the label. Some herbs may cause allergic reactions or interact with conventional drugs，and some are poisonous if used improperly or at high doses（剂量）. Taking herbs on your own increases your risk.
