Grandparents who help out occasionally with childcare in their community tend to live longer than seniors who do not care for other people,according to a study from Berlin,Germany.

“Having no contact with grandchildren at all can negatively impact grandparents’ health. This link could be deeply rooted in our evolutionary past when help with childcare was important for the survival of the human species,”said Sonja Hilbrand,one of the researchers.

The findings are drawn from data on more than 500 people over age 70.Overall,after accounting for grandparents’age and general state of health,the risk of dying over a 20-year period was one-third lower for grandparents who cared for their grandchildren,compared with grandparents who provided no childcare.

Caregiving was associated with a longer life even when the care receiver wasn’t a relative. Half of a 11 childless seniors who provided support to friends or neighbors lived for seven years after the study began,while non-helpers lived for four years on average.

“Caregiving may give caregivers a purpose of life because they may feel useful for others and society.Caregiving may be thought also as an activity that keeps caregivers physically and mentally active,” said Professor Bruno Arpino.

Arpino noted,however,that caregiving is not the only activity that can improve health and that too many caring responsibilities can take away from other beneficial activities like working,being in social clubs,or volunteering.“Children should take into account their parents’ needs,willingness,and desires and agree with them on the timing and amount of childcare,” he suggested.

“It is very important that every individual decides for him/herself,what proper amounts of help’ means,”Hilbrand said,adding,“As long as you do not feel stressed about the intensity(强度) of help you provide you may be doing something good for others as well as for yourself.”

A small robot may help children who are recovering from a long-term illnesses in the hospital or at home.

These children may feel isolated from their friends and classmates. The robot takes their place at school. Through the robot, the children can hear their teachers and friends. They also can take part in class from wherever they are recovering.

A Norwegian company called No Isolation created a robot. The co-founders of No Isolation are Karen Dolva and Marius Aabel. The robot is called AV1. AV1 goes to school for a child who is at home while recovering from a long-term illness. And the child’s school friends must help. They carry the robot between classes and place the robot on the child’s desk.

Dolva explains how the robot AV1 works. She says, from home, the child uses a tablet or phone to start the robot. Then they use the same device to control the robot’s movements. At school, the robot becomes the eyes, ears and voice of the child. The child can take part in classroom activities from wherever she/he is recovering—whether at home or from a hospital bed. The robot is equipped with speakers, microphones and cameras make communicating easy. It was designed to be tough. It is water resistant and can take a fall from a desk without damage.

Inside AV1, there is a small computer connected to a 4G network. A small camera hooked up to a small computer could do the job. But that would not be the same. AV1 is large and looks like a human for a reason. Dolva says this is important because the robot is supposed to be a friend to the children.

And robots are, quite simply, cool. The robot just became available to the public. Hopefully AV1 will help some children feel less lonely while they are absent from class.

1.Which of the following can replace the underlined word “isolated” in Paragraph 2?

A. freed B. tired C. banned D. separated

2.What can we know about AV1?

A. It can go to school on its own.

B. It is small and looks like a kid.

C. It can replace children to attend classes.

D. It was created by Dolva and Aabel.

3.How are the movements of AV1 controlled?

A. By using a tablet or phone. B. By joining in classroom activities.

C. Through a small speaker. D. Through a small camera.

4.Who is AV1 mainly designed for?

A. Children who have just recovered from illnesses.

B. Children who can’t go to school for a long time.

C. Children who are bored with going to school.

D. Children who can’t see, hear or speak.

It is reported that bags are getting bigger all the time,and that there are more bags per person on the street today than at any other time in history.If this is true,possible explanations could include the wide use of small electric and electronic devices,a reading-material explosion,a popular interest toward tight or pocket less clothing,or cheap bagmaking labor overseas.

But,much as nature finds ways—such as disease—to control overpopulation,city life has thrown up impediments(障碍) to bags.To enter many public buildings,such as theatres and railway stations,you must go through a search or go bagless.The city has countless bag rules.It is hard to keep them all straight,and you're never sure,when leaving home for the day,whether it might be a bad idea to bring one along.

Last week,the New York Public Library got in the game.Students,researchers,writers,historians,and anyone else who has got used over the years to treating the vast Rose Main Reading Room as an office or a reading room came up against a new rule.You are no longer allowed to bring a bag larger than eleven inches by fourteen inches into the library.If you walk in with one,you must leave it at the coat check.You may keep its contents with you,however,and the library provides big clear plastic bags for them.You return them when you come back for your own bag.

What the library is trying to prevent,in this case,is people taking things out,rather than bringing things in.A librarian said on the second day,”It’s a big change for people who used to come and bring in half their flats.The people who use the library responsibly will continue to do so.The people who steal will continue to get away with it,if they really want to.”

1.How many reasons does the author list to explain the changes related to bags?

A. 2 B. 3 C. 4 D. 5

2.What do the bag rules in many public buildings require people to do?

A. Have their bags examined. B. Pay for bringing in bags.

C. Leave the places bagless. D. Use big clear plastic bags.

3.What is the purpose of the new rule at the New York Public Library?

A. To change people’s way of reading.

B. To prevent people stealing things.

C. To help people better use the library.

D. To stop people from bringing in dangerous things.

4.How is the effect of the new rule according to the librarian?

A. Excellent. B. Satisfactory. C. Harmful. D. Limited.

It’s not unusual for us to be together with our relatives on the weekends. But you know that holidays can be the chances for families to get together. Also, it may be a time to break your relationship because of some improper conversations. Now, Deborah Tannen, a Georgetown University professor, offers suggestions to improve communication at the holiday table. Let’s take a look.

A round dinning table is best for promoting a lively conversation because everyone faces one another. So, avoid seating grandparents at the ends of a rectangular(长方形的)table, even though it is the traditional place of honor. The old may feel lonely there because they will be unable to hear or keep up with a conversation. So do female family members because they prefer to face each other when they talk. However, Men might look around at other things. “Guys may be more relaxed looking at the TV or other interesting things.” says Tannen.

When talking, you should notice the people who are not involved in it. If you feel you are doing all the talk, wait to give others a chance to start. If you feel you can’t get a chance to speak, try to make yourself to start talking.

Besides, Some families find that gatherings will go better if they take part in an outdoor activity. Going to a park for a walk may be more enjoyable than sitting around talking.

1.According to the passages, seating the old at the ends of a rectangular table _______.
