Practices can vary in forms,including
needle insertion,cupping and scraping.Needle
insertion,6 most common method,7
(carry)out by inserting hair-thin needles into
meridians,or specific points on the body that
channel vital energy (the qi).Practitioners lift,
twirl and rotate needles to unblock the flow of
energy and stimulate the body's innate potential
to heal 8 (it).
Looking beyond China,acupuncture has

A 13-year-old boy,Jonathan Werner,is
breaking a new path when it comes to the Scout
(童子军)slogan“Do a Good Turn Daily”.The
boy in Troop 506 has got an unusual high rank
for someone of that age.
Like many troops,506 sells popcorn each
fall to raise money.In 2019,Jonathan watched as
kids who'd made $1,800 or more in sales
received a set of building blocks as a reward."I
really wanted that building block set,"he says.

building block sets.Under its generous reward
program,scouts receive a percentage of their
sales in gift cards and cash points.Inspired,
Jonathan spent the next few years developing
some astonishing tricks for selling.
Popcorn too expensive?A simple donation
would do.No cash?Credit cards were acceptable.
He set up in front of local stores,working 12
hours a day.He even struck a deal with a car
dealer:In all his sales efforts,he'd wear a mask
with the company's logo if the owner would buy
popcorn for all his employees.

numbers.In 2021,he earned $46,193.75 in
sales.He might have spent much on himself,but
he had other ideas.The popcorn season closes in
late November,and the holidays were on his
mind-particularly the stories his father,Steve
Kolk,had told him about his own days in foster
(寄养)care.
“They didn’t really have New Year,”
Jonathan says.With $5,000,he could bring New
Year to a lot of kids.He shifted from a big seller to
a big spender,hand-selecting $5,000 worth of
gifts for dozens of kids according to their personal
details.Each present must be hand-wrapped.And
no kid should get just one gift.If you weren't
unwrapping at least two packages,you weren't
getting the real New Year-morning experience
that his father never had.
The next year he strengthened his efforts,
achieving a higher aim in sales and spending
more on gifts.“It really makes me happy,”he
says,"the feeling that I'm making those kids
happy on New Year.”
1.What originally motivated Jonathan to sell
more popcorn?
A.Making money for building block sets.
B.Being persuaded by scout kids.
C.Desiring a toy he dreamed about.
D.Receiving gift cards and cash points
2.What is paragraph 4 mainly about?
A.Challenges Jonathan met in sales.
B.Help that the car dealer provided.
C.Marketing strategies Jonathan used.
D.The role the reward program played.
3.Why did Jonathan turn into a big spender over
New Year?

Test B七选五
For outdoor enthusiasts,it is crucial to be
prepared for any sort of natural disaster in the
open air.1 It includes what kinds of
disasters may strike,and what resources should
be taken on your trip.
2 Desert areas are more likely to be
affected by droughts;coastal regions are more
likely to see hurricanes;mountainous areas are
likely to see avalanches(雪崩)in winter and
landslides in summer.Therefore,always do
some research ahead of time to help you find
right survival strategies in different conditions.
While you're planning,the essential thing
to consider is the things you should pack for
your trip.Any disaster that may separate you
from civilization for a period of time will require
you to provide your own food,water,and shelter
for at least a few days.3 For disasters that
may wet your equipment,flameless light sources
are a must.What you bring with you should be
suited to the disaster you might encounter.
Once you complete your survival plan,it's
better to review it periodically.When a natural
disaster strikes,you probably won't have time
to go over a document or go online to seek
advice.4
If a natural disaster strikes while you are in
the wilderness,you should put your survival
plan into effect immediately.5 Then contact
others for help.Do not wait around to see if the
disaster is really that serious,do not panic,and
do not easily abandon your plan.
A.But this is not always the case.
B.It's also a good idea to bring light
sources.
C.That means having a disaster response
plan.
D.It's also great to consult the specialists
in person.
E.Consequently,revising it frequently is
strongly recommended.

F.Different kinds of disasters are likely to

It was one of those freezing nights when we

The dampness in the air got trapped and a
curtain of fog sank all around,mixing with the
snow on the ground and the strong snow falling

never had I imagined my little act could save my
life on such a night.
I was only on the road for a minute before I
regretted my decision not to stay put.The
winding country road was totally deserted.My
car's headlights could barely cut through the
heavy fog.The snow was getting heavier.A lot

Good morning,everyone!
Today,I am thrilled to share with you a
technological item in our life:Artificial Intelligence
(AI).AI involves the development of computer
systems designed to perform tasks that normally
require human intelligence.
By automating routine tasks and providing
innovative solutions to complex problems,Al has
already made waves in various aspects.It is
transforming healthcare with personalized treatments,
enhancing security with facial recognition,and even
teaching languages with unmatched efficiency.
Looking ahead,I believe Al is bound to become an
indispensable part of our lives.However,while the
future with AI holds immense promise,it's also crucial
to address ethical issues to make sure it benefits
humanity.
Thank you.

Getting near,I found its leg stuck in a trap.Its
eyes locked onto mine-wide and desperate,and its
nose twitched in panic,as if begging for help.Despite
the freezing wind biting through my coat,I knelt
down."Hold on,"I whispered,trying to loosen the
trap with numb fingers.The little creature stopped
struggling,staring at me with a mix of fear and hope.
My gloves were already wet,but I ignored.I was
determined to save this little life,forgetting about
everything around me.
Just as I was freeing the rabbit from the trap,a
train whooshed (by.The fog swirled,and the
train's dark shape with faint light was briefly visible
before disappearing into the heavy fog,leaving only the
steam behind.In that split second,I realized:had I not
stopped for the rabbit,my car would have been hit by
the train.My heart pounded violently.After pulling
myself together,I finally loosened the trap and the
rabbit hopped away.This encounter became a constant
reminder that in a world with uncertainties,kindness
