out into the community. It is aimed at people with mental health conditions as well as the general public, and regularly attracts hundreds of people to four weekly sing-alongs. One of them is Penny Holden, 67, who has lived with mental health all her life. She credits the singing group with turning her life around 13 years ago when she was at her lowest. She claimed it was the best thing she’d ever done.
Researchers from UEA’s Norwich Medical School said a study of 20 members of the group over six months found singing and mixing socially had helped those who had had serious mental health issues to function better in day-to-day life. Lead researcher Professor Tom Shakespeare said it was a low-commitment, low-cost tool for mental health recovery within the community because it gave participants a feeling of belonging and well-being. He said the breathing involved in singing had also been shown to be good for the body. “The participants are not practicing for a performance,” he added, “and this means the singing groups are very relaxed and fun.”

Do you have a summer firefly( 萤火虫) memory? I have many. I knew it was finally summer when I would be outside playing after dinner and those little flying lights appeared. I imagined each light was a fairy with long hair. But fireflies are disappearing. While the exact reason isn’t known, several factors are suspected: habitat (栖息地) loss, light pollution and harmful chemicals.
As the human population continues to grow, more and more wild habitats will be developed for our use. The more we destroy forest land, the fewer fireflies there will be — unless we start living in some totally different ways.
Another part of the problem is light pollution. Both female and male fireflies use their glowing lights to communicate with one another to find mates. Research has shown that lights — both streetlights or lights from a house, and temporary, like car headlights — make it harder for fireflies to communicate. If mom and dad fireflies can’t find each other to mate ( 交配) because they’re thrown off by car headlights,

young fireflies never get created.
While firefly number will continue to decline in some places, in others they’re becoming an attraction. In China, firefly pupae（蛹）were brought into some special parks. One of the first of these parks, in the city of Wuhan in Hubei province, opened in 2015. The response was so positive that the park planned to open
annually.
Kids who grow up without fireflies will never know what they’re missing. The little lovely bugs are a magical addition to the landscape, but once they die out, they will exist only in the memories of older people. If you’d like to keep fireflies around in real life, you can help create firefly habitats in and around your own home.
28. What might cause the number of fireflies to decrease?
A. The effect of air pollution. B. The loss of natural habitats. C. The growth of population. D. The over-use of chemicals.
29. According to the passage, car headlights make fireflies .
A. likely to get lost
B. find mates easily
C. lose sight temporarily
D. unable to produce young
30. What might be discussed in the following paragraph?
A. How to keep fireflies around. B. How chemicals harm fireflies. C. How to stop fireflies dying out. D. How fireflies struggle to live on.

your parents are different. Think about the ways that their lives may have been different from your life, and how these different histories may be contributing to issues in the relationship.
● Avoid unnecessary arguments. Sometimes arguments are unavoidable, but do your best to avoid unnecessary quarrels. This may mean that you have to bite your tongue when one of your parents says something controversial. 34 If it is, make the point clearly and modestly in order to avoid an overly emotional argument.
● Don’t ask for their advice unless you really want it. Sometimes problems arise in relationships between parents and children, particularly at the teenage years and beyond, because parents can try to give advice that might hurt your sense of independence. 35 Otherwise, you may be opening the door to frustration on your part.

C. Show your appreciation with your actions.
D. It can hurt to feel taken for granted, even for parents. E. Problems between parents and children are common. F. So try only asking for their advice when you really want it. G. Determine whether the need to respond is really necessary.
