A heartwarming act has transformed the life of Lyn Story,a retired woman from Fort Worth,
Texas,who dedicates her time to providing free rides to strangers in need.Story,beloved in her
community for her selflessness,received an extraordinary gift-a brand-new car-from
Philadelphia car dealer David Kelleher.
Story's mission of kindness began through the neighborhood app "Nextdoor,"where she
connected with neighbors in need of transportation.Among those she's helped are April Goodwin,
who battles cancer and relies on Story to reach vital medical appointments,and Kevin Horrigan,
a blind man who depends on her rides to get to work.Despite her own challenges,including
financial stress and a failing car,Story never stopped giving."Lyn's like a little angel;she really
is,"Horrigan said,reflecting the gratitude of many who have benefited from her kindness.

title,tags,and an extended warranty().He also offered to cover her insurance annually,
ensuring she could continue her acts of kindness without financial worry.
"To know that I could help somebody in such a way that's been helping other people.I get
so much out of it,"Kelleher shared."Now she's gonna be safe,and it's gonna be dependable.
She's gonna be able to help other people."
Overwhelmed with gratitude,Story named the car "The White Knight,"a fitting symbol of

"Sandy wind,is blowing over the shed...Sheep in the pen,are circling restlessly..."This is
a folk song that people used to sing in counties like Awat along the Taklimakan Desert in the
Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region.Simple lyries reflect the bitter life they've had to suffer
from sand and dust storms striking in from time to time.
But not long ago,a new milestone appeared in the long battle with desertification.On
Nov.28th,the last desert rose was planted into the sandy soil,completing the final stretch of the
3,046-km-long sand-blocking green belt surrounding the Taklimakan Desert.Therefore,China's
largest and the world's second-largest shifting sand desert now wears a"green scarf."
Given the vastness of the Taklimakan Desert,not to mention its high-speed winds and severe
droughts,building the world's longest ecological barrier to encircle this desert is no easy task.
During the difficult exploration of controlling desertification,people gradually found that adopting
proper methods according to local geographical features is the effective solution.Over time,
people living at the brink of the Taklimakan Desert noticed that sand storms have become less
frequent,the environment has improved,and yields have been bettered in their farmlands.
China is one of the countries that suffer most from desertification.Now,reduction has been
realized in both desertification and sandification.For China,the green scarf of the Taklimakan
Desert also signifies a new start.For"Our Land"and"Our Future,"one can be hopeful to see
more stories about human-desert harmony and humanity-nature harmony.

The choices we make in diet and exercise go a long way towards determining our body's
mass,yet it's our genes that lay the groundwork for gaining and burning fat reserves.Scientists
have recently discovered 14"skinny"genes that could influence how individuals lost weight in
response to exercise.
Researchers from the University of Essex and Anglia Ruskin University in the UK enlisted
the help of 38 volunteers aged between 23 and 40 divided between a control group and an exercise
group,who did three 20 to 30-minute runs per week over the course of a couple of months.
As expected,those who undertook the running routine lost weight.Yet the amount of loss varied
significantly in ways that couldn't be attributed to differences in training alone.Through DNA
testing,the researchers looked for gene variants()that were more common in those that
shed a greater amount of weight
The team was able to identify variants in 14 particular genes related to greater weight loss:
participants with most of these variants lost 5 kilograms(11 pounds)on average,compared
with an average of 2 kilograms(4.4 pounds)for those with fewer or none of these markers in
their DNA.
That doesn't mean there's any weight loss magic in our genes.Effort and action is required
in combination with genetics to manage weight,the researchers are keen to point out"This study
highlighted some important genes associated with taking inches off the jeans,but it's important
to remember that the genes will do nothing without exercise and lifestyle changes as they are
all interlinked,"says exercise scientist Henry Chung,from the University of Essex."Without
intervention,they won't show their true potential and then it doesn't matter what genes you have."

A.Amounted to.
B.Added to.
C.Explained by.
D.Indicated by.
35.What can we learn from this passage?
A.The healthier diet the control participants had,the less weight loss they had.
B.The more exercise the control participants took,the greater weight loss they had.

C.The more"skinny"genes the exercise participants had,the greater weight loss they had.
