1、In North America,66.大多数学生坐校车去上学。 The subway is also widely used in some cities. In small towns and cities,walking is still popular.
The yellow school bus is a familiar sight all over North America. It is a very convenient form of transportation because it takes students right to the entrance to the school. 67.It also gives students a chance to chat with their friends. However, the bus is slow and does not always pick up on time. The subway is a means of getting around quickly in many cities. However, 68.it is expensive and can be very crowded during rush hour. Another disadvantage of the subway is that the stops are not close to the school. 69.学生们经常不得不走很长时间的路or take a bus from the subway stop to the school.
Walking has a number of advantages for those who live close to school. It's free and it provides a form of exercise. 70.However, it's not interesting if you have a heavy schoolbag full of books to carry. It's also unpleasant if the weather is either too hot or cold.

24、Do you like reading? If so, then World Book Day might be just for you.
World Book Day was first organized by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) in 1995 to encourage reading. It is now celebrated by book lovers every year on April 23rd, which falls on the birthday of British author William Shakespeare.
Reading is a wonderful hobby to get into. Not only can it help you explore new worlds with your very own imagination, but it can also help you make new friends in the real world. Although reading is often seen as an unsociable hobby, there are actually many different kinds of clubs and events to unite book lovers everywhere.
For example, there is the practice of Book-Crossing, which tries to “make the whole world a library”. To participate, you leave a book in a public area. That book will then be picked up and enjoyed by someone else, who will in turn leave the book for someone else to find.
By joining book clubs and events, book lovers can make their own communities, connect with others, and share their knowledge with people all around the world. But how can books stay popular in an increasingly digital world? It’s a fact that there are dozens of different things turning our attention away. Thankfully, people still seem to be very interested in reading books.
Today, teenagers have even started using the popular video-sharing app TikTok to make their own book clubs. Using the hashtag “BookTok”, teens are sharing things like their favorite titles, book reviews, and reading tips with other users. These teenage “BookTokers” have helped to get people out of reading slumps (衰退) and into new novels.
Companies have also started to find new and interesting ways to keep readers involved. For example, there are many mobile apps and online services that encourage reading by providing short passages that are fit for modern lifestyles and busy timetables.
So, whether you prefer downloading your books or going to a bookstore to enjoy that “new book” smell, be sure to celebrate World Book Day by opening one of your favorites.

25、Many years ago,when I was working as a volunteer(志愿者)at a hospital, I got to know a little girl named Lisa. The poor little girl had a very serious disease and was dying.

The little boy had the same disease before and had developed the antibodies(抗体)to fight the illness.
The doctor talked to the little boy about what they planned to do, and asked him if he would be willing(愿意的)to give his blood to his sister. I saw him hesitate(迟疑)for a moment. He took a deep breath and said, “Yes, I’ll do it if it can save Lisa.”
As the transfusion was going on, the little boy lay quietly in bed next to his sister. He 1ooked at her and smiled all the time.

26、What’s the meaning of “dark horse”? It’s someone who wins when no one expects it. Han Xiaopeng took Chinas first gold on snow. He became an Olympic “dark horse” by winning the gold medal in men’s freestyle aerial skiing(自由式滑雪空中技巧) at Turin in Italy. He made two almost perfect jumps for the highest score. Han had never won a world gold medal before, let alone(更不用说) in the Olympics!
“I never thought this would happen,” said the 23-year-old. “I feel like I’m in a dream.” Its China's Second gold medal at the Turin Olympics. But more important, Hans gold was the country s first ever in a snow spot n 2002, China's Yang Yang won the gold for speed skating at the winter Olympics in Salt Lake City, US. Just because Han's win was unexpected doesn't mean that he didn't work hard.
Han grew up in Jiangsu Province. Before he started his training on snow, he used to be an acrobat(杂技演员) at a circus. In 1995, a coach found his talent. The coach, Yang Er'qi, said Han had the agility(灵活性) and courage to be a ski jumper. When Yang first took the 12-year-old to northern China, the boy couldn't swim, skate or ski. But he wasn’t afraid of the high platform (跳台) and kept on training.
Han almost left the sport after hurting his knee months before the Salt Lake Games. In that Olympics he only got 24th. “I was hopeless at that time, but my family and the coach stood firmly(坚强) behind me, helping me through,” he recalled.
Han Xiaopeng worked so hard that he won the gold medal in the Olympics at last. Because of his success, more and more people in China are becoming interested in skiing. We are proud of him and we hope he will have another big success.

27、Are you emotional(感情用事)? Do you often have strong feelings? How do you deal with bad emotions?
We feel angry or guilty about the things we did or did not achieve, about the things we cannot have, and many other things. It seems that everyone carries their own bad emotions. But neither guilt nor anger can help us. Over time, they can be heavy weights on our shoulders.
These bad emotions don’t do anything good for us at all. So you might ask yourself: is it possible to put down this heavy burden(负担) and give yourself a break? It is quite possible. Start by actually looking at your feelings. How do they get inside of us? Why do we carry them for so long instead of putting them down? Can we live without them?
By thinking about our bad emotions, we can find healthy ways to deal with them. Unhealthy behaviors are not the way to do this. They provide no relief(解脱). Instead, there are better ways to handle(处理) them. One of the best ways is forgiveness(原谅). By forgiving ourselves and others, we can abandon our burdens and feel better about ourselves. The moment you do this, you’ll be much happier with your life.
【1】What is the first step to put down the heavy burden of bad emotions?
A.Asking others some questions.
