10、 I will never forget, The training included midnight swims in the cold water, days without _17_and long painful runs in the soft sand, I always felt cold, wet, sleepy and painful.

29、of its total users listen to its audiobooks. To attract more users, the mobile app allows users to vote for the book they hope to listen to most. The audio app tries to meet their needs. Li Yang, a student in Beijing, used to be worried by piles of books as her house is too small. The problem was so
30、lved when she started to sell the used books on an online second-hand bookstore Deja Vu. “By selling them, most of my books which used to gather dust in the corner can come to life again. ” she said. According to a survey by giant Alibaba in 2018, the market for the second-hand book was booming last
31、 year as more Chinese tend to trade or exchange their used books online. The rise of online second-hand book platforms and sharing ideas also contributed to the booming book recycling. Users are able to sell their books by scanning the barcode(扫条形码)of books and then wait for the courier(快 递员) to col
32、lect them. The collected books will be cleaned, disinfected (消毒) and packed before selling to other readers at a lower price.

37、. D. Two million used books were sold on the online platform Deja Vu in 2018. C When I was young, I lived in Scotland with my parents. I had a good time there. One morning, I ran to the garden, and said to the old Scotsman who worked there. “Today I am going up the mountain for berries. ” “No, no, M
38、issey, not today. ” he said , “It will rain. ” “No, it will not rain. ” I said, “The sun is up. The cook says it will be fine. The glass in the hall does not say rain. ” “Tuts, tuts. ” said the old man, “I care for no suns, or cooks, or glasses. The pimpernel (海绿) says it will rain, and so it will r
39、ain. Flowers, Missey, always tell the truth. When they say rain, go and get your umbrella.” Sure enough, by noon the rain was pouring down. After that, I looked with great respect at the tiny flower, sometimes brickred, sometimes blue, which could tell about the weather. But the pimpernel is not the
40、 only plant that is a weather prophet. If you go into the garden, and find the African marigolds shut after seven oclock in the morning, you may be pretty sure that there will be a rainy day. There is a little single marigold which shuts up in a hurry if the sky becomes clouded. It is called the “ra
41、iny-marigold”. Most plants which we call “weather prophets” shut up for rain. But some plants open for rain. The cause of the opening and closing is probably the difference in light. Most likely these plants shut their flowers because there is too little light. But you know there are some plants whi
42、ch become smaller in a strong light and love the shade. You will find that most shade-loving plants, as the verbenas, do not close for rain. Lilies, tulips and other flowers that love the sun shut for rain. Tulips are careful not to open their cups very wide in the morning if it is likely to rain. T
43、he roses make no change. They seem not to fear wet. On the whole, you may be pretty sure, if you go into your garden, and find many flowers-as tulips, marigolds and morning glories-shut, it will be a stormy day, unfit for picnics or long walks. 38.

47、s and weather D We never forget when Perronet came to us. It was on a spring afternoon. We never knew who drowned Perronet, but David pulled him out of the water and saved his life, People sometimes asked us what kind of dog he was, but we never knew, except that he was the nicest possible kind. Mot
48、her said we could not afford him because of the tax(税) and his keep. The tax was five shillings （先令） ， but it was nearly a year before the time when it must be paid. At last, we decided that all three of us would give up sugar toward saving the cost of his keep. It was the hardest for David because
49、he was fond of sweet things, but then, he was fond of Perronet. So we all gave up sugar, and Perronet was allowed to remain. We were very happy that summer. The boys were especially happy. The only thing that vexed me was Perronets tax money, for months and months went on and we didnt save it. One day, I found Davi
