24、 The novel coronavirus pneumonia (NCP) has already made tens of thousands of people sick. Where did the virus come from? Scientists say it probably came from bats.
Bats can carry and transmit (传播) more than 60 viruses that can infect humans. They include the world’s deadliest viruses, such as Ebola and HIV. Due to their strong immune systems (免疫系统), bats are able to host these viruses and not get sick. At the same time, the viruses keep developing inside the bats to create new variants (变体). These variants can then infect new hosts, such as other wild animals.
Pangolins (穿山甲), for example, might be an intermediate host (中间宿主) for NCP, according to a recent study by Chinese scientists. This means that bats might have given the virus to pangolins, with pangolins then spreading it to humans.
Wild animals like snakes, hedgehogs (刺猬) and bamboo rats also carry various viruses. But since they live in the wild, there should be little chance for humans to come into contact with them and get infected – unless the animals are eaten or used to make animal products. When people hunt, buy and eat wild animals, they can introduce viruses to the rest of the population.
But this doesn’t mean that we should kill wild animals. Each species has a role in the ecosystem (生态系统) and all of them are important in keeping a natural ecological balance. The lesson we can learn from disease outbreaks is to respect and protect animals and to live in harmony with them instead of hunting, killing, or eating them.
【1】Why can bats host many viruses without getting sick?
A.Because these viruses are not deadly.
B.Because they have strong immune systems.
C.Because the viruses are kept in balance.
D.Because they can spread the viruses to other animals.
【2】According to a recent study, humans might get infected with COVID-19 from _____.
A.pangolins B.snakes
C.hedgehogs D.bamboo rats
【3】What does the word “harmony” in the last paragraph probably mean?
A.隔离 B.和谐 C.伤害 D.集中
【4】According to the story, what lesson should humans learn?
A.Research more about wild animals.
B.Exercise regularly to stay healthy.
C.Stop keeping animals as pets.
D.Don’t buy or eat wild animals.

26、Different weather makes people feel different. It influences(影响) health, intelligence(智力) and feelings.
In August, it is very hot and wet in the southern part of the United States. People there have heart trouble and other kinds of health problems during this month. In the Northeast and the Middle-West, it is very hot at some times and very cold at other times. People in these states have more heart trouble after the weather changes in February or March.
The weather can also influence intelligence. For example, in a 1983 report by scientists, IQ of a group of students was very high when a very strong wind came, but after the strong wind, their IQ was 10% lower. The wind can help people have more intelligence. Very hot weather, on the other hand, can make it lower. Students in many schools of the United States often get worse on exams in the hot months of the year(July and August).
Weather also has a strong influence on people’s feelings. Winter may be a bad time for thin people. They usually feel cold during these months. They might feel unhappy during cold weather. But fat people may have a hard time in hot summer. At about 18℃, people become stronger.
Low air pressure(气压) may make people forgetful. People leave more bags on buses and in shops on low-pressure days. People feel best at a temperature of about 18℃.
Are you feeling sad, tired, forgetful or unhappy today? It may be the weather’s problem.

27、 Agatha Christie is undoubtedly queen of the detective story. Many people have fallen in love with her creations ﹣Hercule Poirot, a famous Belgian detective and Miss Marple, an old lady who is also an amateur (业余的)detective.
As I am a big fan of Agatha Christie, let me share with you an interesting story about her. The famous writer never forgot that night when she met a robber many years ago. That evening, she was invited to a birthday party which lasted until 2 o'clock in the morning. Agatha walked in the quiet street alone. Suddenly from the shadow of a dark building a tall man with a sharp knife in his right hand ran out at her. "Good morning, lady," the man said in a low voice, "I don't think you wish to die here!"
"What do you want?" Agatha asked.
"Your earrings. Take them off!"
Agatha suddenly had a bright idea. She tried to cover her necklace with the collar (衣领)of her coat while she used the other hand to take off both of her earrings and then she quickly threw them on the ground.
"Take them and let me go," she said. The robber saw that the girl didn't care for the earrings at all, only trying to protect the necklace. He thought the necklace would cost more, so he said, "Give me your necklace." "Oh, sir. It's not worth much. Please let me keep it.
"Stop talking rubbish. Quick!"
With shaky hands, Agatha took off her necklace. As soon as the robber disappeared, she picked up her earrings and ran as fast as she could to one of her friends. In fact, the earrings cost 480 pounds and the necklace the robber had taken away cost only six pounds.
