2.Days after Argentina canceled all international passenger flights to protect the country from the new coronavirus,Juan Manuel Ballestero began his journey home the only way possible:He stepped aboard his small sailboat for what turned out to be an 85-day voyage across the Atlantic.
The 47-year-old sailor could have stayed on the tiny Portuguese island of Porto Santo to survive the era of lockdowns and social distancing in a scenic place largely spared by the virus.But the idea of spending what he thought could be "the end of the world" away from his family,especially his father who was soon to turn 90,was unbearable.
"I didn't want to stay like a coward on an island where there were no cases," Mr.Ballestero said. "I wanted to do everything possible to return home.The most important thing for me was to be with my family. "
He bought his sailboat in 2017,hoping to travel around the world. "I wasn't afraid,but I did have a lot of uncertainty," he said. "It was very strange to sail in the middle of a pandemic with humanity teetering around me. "
Sailing can be a lonely passion,and it was particularly so on this voyage for Mr.Ballestero.Despite the vastness of the ocean,Mr.Ballestero felt he was in isolation,imprisoned by an intense stream of not knowing what the future held. "I was locked up in my own freedom, " he recalled.
When he made it to his native Mar del Plata on June 17,he was shocked by the hero's welcome he received. "Entering my port where my father had his sailboat,where he taught me so many things,where I learned how to sail and where all this originated,gave me the taste of a mission accomplished, " he said.

3.While a healthy diet has always been considered necessary for overall wellness,historically,many hospitals have overlooked its powerful potential for healjye.aig.In some areas,that's beginning to change.In Pennsylvania four years ago,St.Luke's Hospital partnered with Rodale Institute to start an organic produce farm at the hospital's campus in Easton.Since its first season,the St.Luke's farm has expanded to grow 100 fruit and vegetable breed on 11 acres.
Hospital farms are part of a broader movement to make organic,locally produced food accessible to the general population.Some hospitals are making it a priority to source food from nearby farms,while others are turning deserted land on their grounds into community gardens.By making organic produce easily accessible to the patients and visitors alike,these hospitals hope to inspire lifelong changes for better health.Even though most hospital farms aren't growing enough to completely supply their staff and patient food needs,providing even a small amount of fresh produce makes an educational statement about how healthy and delicious a plant-rich diet can be.
While the movement continues to gain attraction,it's encountering some challenges along the way.For example,health workers don't necessarily know how to grow food.This means that most hospitals need to hire a full-time farmer and other farm labor to manage the property,which can be expensive.It takes between 3 and 5 years for most hospital farms to break even,much less save money on food costs.Nonetheless,participating hospitals believe that the benefits are worthwhile.As the movement continues to expand,you might soon experience a farm-fresh meal at a hospital near you.
(1)What change is taking place in St.Luke's hospital according to Paragraph 1?
A.Expanding the planting area of organic food.
B.Understanding better the role of a healthy diet.
C.Starting an organic farm at the hospital alone.
D.Neglecting the healing power of organic produce.
(2)How do hospital farms make organic food more available to the public?
A.By inspiring staff to grow more.
B.By growing food in nearby farms.
C.By purchasing more land as farms.
D.By gardening on the deserted land.
(3)What is the challenge of the movement?
A.The rising cost of foods.
B.The inefficient management.
C.The public less-open attitude.
D.The lack of workforce with planting skills.
(4)What do the hospitals involved think of the movement?
A.Doubtful.
B.Optimistic.
C.Critical.
D.Passive.組卷:3引用:2難度:0.4

9."See you at Open House(學校開放日) tonight,Amy," Evelyn shouted from the school bus window. "Don't forget to ask your mom if I can come over tomorrow!" "OK!" I called back.I wished I could feel excited about my first Open House at my new school,but I was worried.What would other kids say when they found out my parents can't hear?
And I wanted Evelyn to visit,but then she'd see how different my house was.My parents use a video phone so they can use sign language to communicate with callers.We also have a light on the wall that flashes when the phone or doorbell rings.Would Evelyn think my house was strange?
That night,Dad drove us to the brightly lit school.We stopped in front of the bulletin board in the hall. "Look at Amy's picture!" Mom said,too loud!She does that when she's excited,because she can't hear herself.Some older kids turned to stare at us and I wanted to hide.
I led my family into my classroom and looked around.Evelyn was not there yet.Ms.Jennings walked over to us.I introduced her to my family and explained that my parents are deaf. "Oh," she said. "Well,how do you say welcome in sign language?" "Like this. " I swept my open right hand in toward my body,palm up.She repeated the motion. "Thank you," Mom said,smiling. "Nice to meet you. " Ms.Jennings looked surprised. "You speak very well, "she said.In sign language,I repeated what Ms.Jennings had said in case my parents hadn't read her lips.
"Was it difficult teaching Amy to talk?" Ms.Jennings asked. "Not really, " Dad said in sign language,and I translated so Ms.Jennings understood. "She went to daycare with other hearing kids. "
Some of my classmates were watching us and whispering.Then I noticed Evelyn and her mom standing by the door. "Hi,Amy, "Evelyn waved to me and approached us. "I didn't know your parents are deaf. "
