8．About 6 percent of luxury hotels in three major Chinese cities have stopped serving shark fin（鱼翅），a survey has found．Although the controversial（有争议的）dish remains on the menu at most hotels，Green Beagle Environment Institute，a Beijing-based non-government organization that was the main sponsor of the survey，said the results are encouraging and reflect increased awareness．
The survey was carried out in Beijing，Shenzhen and Fuzhou，which were selected as representative cities to collect basic data on shark fin consumption nationwide．In Beijing，132 hotels completed the phone questionnaire between Nov.20 and Dec.12．Only 12 hotels，9 percent，said they do not serve shark fin．A similar survey of 131 Beijing hotels conducted a year ago found only one hotel that did not serve shark fin，Wang Xue，chief coordinator（协调人）of the survey，said on Saturday．In Shenzhen，four out of the 85 four and five star hotels surveyed had stopped serving shark fin，accounting for about 5 percent．In Fuzhou，only one of the 40 hotels surveyed did not serve shark fin．On average，about 6.61 percent of the hotels in the three cities did not serve the food．
"The survey reminded us there is still a long way to go to remove shark fins from Chinese hotels and restaurants，but the improved situation in Beijing is encouraging，"said Wang．"We found more hotels and restaurants were willing to take action over the past year．"International hotels are more active in the"shark-fin-free"project，she noted．China is the world's biggest importer and consumer of shark fin，which has been used in luxurious Chinese dishes for 500 years．Dishes made from shark fin are still regarded as a symbol of honor and respect，especially at business dinners，according to Wang．
Research has also found that shark fin contains poisonous elements，but the nutritious value is less than that of chicken or pork．"We hope hotels and restaurants remove shark fin products from their menus，"Wang added．

7．Ask runners why they run and you'll get a variety of answers； to stay healthy or to feel better．Some have an even bigger reason一to stay calm or out of prison．But Back on My Feet puts recovering addicts and the homeless on the road to a brighter future，starting with a simple step； attending group runs three tunes a week．
At 5：30 a．m．on a hot July day，Back on My Feet's Team Brooklyn gathered in a parking lot．After a round of hugs and some warm-up，the group of eight volunteers and seven residents（居民）set out on a run to nearby Prospect Park．Some ran three miles，some longer，but the goal for all was to finish as a team
"It's helping me put my life back together，"said Jimmy，a 58-year-old cancer survivor who was homeless and a former alcohol addict．"It's healthy．It makes me feel good inside，"adds Jimmy．
Many are skeptical（怀疑的）about the idea of homeless runners，according to Anne Mahlum，who founded Back on My Feet in 2007 after starting a running club for men at a shelter near her Philadelphia home．They did want to run，and in just six years，Mahlum's small running club has expanded to 10 cities around the country，and 388 active members．
The only requirement for joining，besides wanting to，is insisting on at least 30 days．"The first day we give them new shoes and Back on My Feet shirts，"Mahlum says．"Then they run a mile the first day．And then gradually we'll encourage them to build goals．"After 30 days，residents gain access to services like financial aid，housing assistance and employment opportunities through Back on My Feet's partners．In its first year，the New York chapter has seen 41 members obtain employment，34 gain housing and 50 work in job-training programs．
That's not to say it's always easy．"I wanted to quit．But then I started to push myself，"said Adel，39，who began running in March．"Now I would love to run a 10-mile run．Or maybe a marathon one day，who knows．I ran this far，so why not？"

4．My high school，like many others，was extremely competitive not only in sports but also in academic subjects．The pressure of trying to get excellent grades while joining in extra-curricular activities could be great．Sometimes it seemed like I lived at school!When I was home my time was spent doing homework．Some days I was so busy finishing a project that I could hardly see my families．
I have a younger sister named Sally．She was nine years old．We used to see each other，but after I graduated from the primary school she attended．I saw her less and less．
Then one day I came home to an empty house and I found a note from my mom saying my sister was at her friend's and would be dropped off．
At five o'clock I saw my sister walking towards the door with her friend and her friend's father．I heard them talking．"Is anyone at home？"the father asked．
"Just my mean elder sister，Sara，and she's probably in her room as usual，''my sister replied．I couldn't believe it．I opened the door thanked the father for bringing her home，then shut the door and started to cry．
To make a long story short，a huge fight followed that ended with me driving my sister to her room．But I realized that what was worse than the fight was that I really hadn't been a good elder sister．
I had lost track of what was important．and what really mattered．I had been fallen into a whirlpool（漩涡）of pressure and competition，and it took my sister's honest observation to show me that the grades I got didn't matter to everyone--certainly not to her．All that matters to her is that I'm her elder sister，and that's what matters to me，too．

A busy and competitive life．
57．What does the underlined phrase"dropped off"in Paragraph 3probably mean？

They had ahugefight．
60．What lesson do you learn from the author's experience？（No more than 20words．）
