Navy officer Allen Parton suffered a serious head injury while on duty in the Gulf War. It left him in a wheelchair, unable to talk, and he lost half of his life's memories. He couldn't remember his children's first steps, their first days at school, and their being born. Allen didn't even recognize his children. And he lost the ability to feel any emotion. He had two attempts at killing himself in the process of recovery.

But all changed when coming across a dog named Endal, who failed his training to be an assistance dog and needed a home. Endal saw something on the floor by Allen's wheelchair, ran across the training centre, picked it up and put it in Allen's lap. He wanted a treat, a reward, praise, anything, but he got no reaction. Then he ran over to the mock-up supermarket, took a tin off the shelf, put it in Allen's lap. Surprisingly, thatmade Allen's brain switch on and he smiled for the first time in a long time. And it was the start of their relationship.

Endal became his 24-hour companion, helping with every practical aspect of his life.

Then one night, which showed the dog's devotion, Allen and Endal were both hit by a car. Although Allen had been knocked unconscious out of the wheelchair and Endal had been hurt by the vehicle as well, he got up, pulled Allen into the recovery position, and he pulled out the blanket from under Allen's wheelchair and covered him with it.

Legs bleeding, he ran to a nearby hotel and sounded the alarm. Before that, he found Allen's mobile phone in the dark, and he brought it to his face.

And for what he did to his owner he won the Victoria Cross Award.

Athletes in the Olympic Villages-in the Beijing, Yanqing and Zhangjiakou zones-have been sharing their moments with the panda in photos and videos, while Bing Dwen Dwen fans have patiently waited to buy products from licensed stores and through official online channels.

The enthusiasm for the mascot（吉祥物）products has led to a shortage of products, with many netizens complaining that it's too difficult to get a Bing Dwen Dwen doll.

Zhang Zhicheng, a spokesman for the National Intellectual Property Administration, said the difficulty buyers face in getting the mascot products shows the country's stronger and more comprehensive protection of Olympic symbols. "As the mascot has Olympic symbol protection, it also receives patent（专利）, trademark and copyright protection, ＂Zhang said at a news conference organized by the 2022 Beijing Media Center on Monday.

Comprehensive IPR protection（全方位的知识产权保护）guarantees the rights and interests of IPR owners, and also promotes the spread of Olympic culture, he said. "Comprehensive IPR protection is our way of keeping Olympic rules. It's also symbolic of our respect for every athlete, and encouragement for technological innovators at this sports event," he said.

Sun Lei, an IPR lawyer at Yuanhe Partners in Beijing, said that difficulty in buying a Bing Dwen Dwen doll reflects enhanced awareness of the importance of protecting Olympic symbols, adding that thanks should go to the country's early warmings on the issue and other measures.

After Bing Dwen Dwen was unveiled in 2019, the Beijing Organizing Committee for the 2022 Olympics issued a notice on the protection of the mascot. It warned that no individual or department could use the image or name of the mascot for private reasons. It added that using the image in anything other than the official designs was also banned.

The document issued on Tuesday explains in detail the specific measures to carry out the policy decision of the central authorities on May 31 to allow all couples to have a third child, as the country faces the continuous challenges of a graying society and a decreasing birthrate.

The document said financial burdens, a shortfall in the provision of day care services and women's career concerns were among the major factors that have reduced couples' willingness to have more children.

The document asked local governments to simplify the handling of matters such as the issuing of birth certificates, vaccinations for newborn babies and applications for social security cards.

Broader support will also be rolled out in a wide range of sectors to improve the provision of day care services, the document said,  adding that kindergartens will be encouraged to admit children younger than 3,the lower limit under the current admission policies. The document suggests couples with younger children will have access to tax reductions, subsidized（补助）housing and breastfeeding leave. Inspections will also be made to ensure pregnancy and childbirth do not endanger women's career opportunities.

The document noted that China will continue to safeguard the legitimate rights and interests of families with only one child. Efforts will also be made to explore setting up an improved leave system for offspring from one-child families to care for their parents.

As the authorities are still changing and improving rules to adapt to the new third-child policy many couples have found themselves in limbo. Under China's family planning rules, couples usually need to get official documents to expand their families.

To address this, the authorities in some parts of China, including the Tibet autonomous region and Anhui province, have allowed couples to go ahead with their plans to have more children, and they will be able to apply for the official documents once the new rules are in place.

In this video, I am going to give you a guide on how to become a real alpha man. And there are three traits that you need to understand.

And this is easier said than done. When a man does not know his purpose, he is kind of like a leaf blowing in the wind. And he's easily influenced by the environment around him. Usually it takes a very long time to uncover your purpose. And just actively seeking out your purpose is a trait of an alpha man.

The second trait may sound very simple but it's of great importance. Alpha men go after what they want in life. If they see a business opportunity, they will pursue it. If they don't like something within their life, they will go and change it. There are so many people today who complain and are not happy with certain aspects in their life. But alpha men are doers.

The third and final trait of alpha males is that they have passion. It's important to have passion in life and to be passionate about living life. Positive energy is infectious. Just like how negative energy is infectious. I'm sure we have all experienced being around someone who is very negative and we feel negative just by being around them. And when you are around other people, they also feel that they're under your umbrella of negativity.

So those are the three most important traits of being an alpha man. Be authentic to yourself. And live life on your own terms. .

A. If they have a question, they will ask it. B. The same idea goes for being around positive people. C. Many people are not able to share their opinions and beliefs. D. And they just sit by while opportunities and problems pass them by. E. If you enjoyed this video, please share it with a friend or leave it a like. F. The first trait to becoming an alpha male is to know your purpose in your life. G. But they are not willing to take the steps and to take the action to fix those things.

The negative health effects of skimping（节省）on sleep during the week can't be reversed （扭转）by marathon weekend sleep sessions, according tonew study．

Despite complete(free) to sleep in and nap during a weekend recovery period, participants in a sleep laboratory who were limited to five hours of sleep on weekdays gained （near）three pounds over two weeks. Meanwhile, they experienced metabolic disruption（代谢紊乱）that would increase（they） risk for diabetes over the long term．While weekend recovery sleep had some benefits after a single week of(insufficiency)sleep,  those gains（wipe） out when people fell right back into their same sleep-deprived（睡眠不足）schedule the next Monday.

"If there  （be） benefits of catch-up（加紧弥补）sleep, they're gone when you go back to your routine. It's very short-lived. "  said Kenneth Wright, director of the sleep and chronobiology laboratory at the University of Colorado at Boulder, oversaw（监督）the work．

Wright said that the study suggests people should prioritize（优先处理）sleep-cutting out the optional "sleep stealers" such as(watch)television shows or spending time on electronic devices. Even though people don't have a choice about losing sleep due child-care responsibilities or job schedules, they should think about prioritizing sleep in the same way they would do to a healthy diet or exercise.

A Terrifying Experience

"If mum finds out that I'm going to the beach, I'll be in big trouble." I muttered（嘟囔）to myself softly.

I crept slowly down the stairs and tried to walk casually into the kitchen. As I was walking towards the back door, mum asked without looking up from her "dish-washing", "Where are you going?" I answered back without hesitation, "I'm going to the garden to play." After I got out of the kitchen, I breathed a sign of relief. My plan had worked out fine so far. I scaled（攀爬）the fence and jumped onto the muddy field next to my house and started running towards the bus-stop at top speed.

After half an hour, I was at the beach scanning the crowd for my friends, Jimmy and Bobby. After a while, I spotted them near a coconut tree. I ran towards them and got into my swimming trunks（泳裤）. For about an hour, we played volleyball happily.

Suddenly, Bobby hit the ball too hard and the ball fell into the sea. Just as Bobby was going to pick up the ball, the tide came in and carried the ball further and further away from the shore. I wanted to show off my swimming skills so I decided to get the ball for them.

I dived into the water and started swimming at a steady pace. After swimming for about ten minutes, I became tired but when I saw that the ball was only a few feet away from me, I put in an extra burst of speed. However, just as I was going to grab the ball, a very strong current swept the ball further away from me. At that moment, a string of weed tangled（缠绕）up with my feet and l could not swim properly.

I struggled to keep afloat but it was no use. "If I had listened to mum and dad, this would never have happened," I thought silently.

注意：

1）续写的词数应为150左右；

2）请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。

Paragraph 1: Finally, after struggling for a minute or two, I had no more energy and got pulled underwater.
