I'm Margaret, an exchange student from America. I've been living in Beijing for several weeks and I have made new friends here, many of1.are locals. Through my interaction with them, I`ve noticed some interesting cultural differences when2.(eat) out.
One of the most obvious is the way food3.(serve). In America, each diner orders their own meal. When people eat out in Asia, they usually order food to share. Sometimes, one member of the party does the4.(major) of the ordering for everyone. Each of us has our own bowl of rice or noodles, and we share the rest of the dishes. This is an excellent way5.(try) new foods!
6.thing that strikes me as odd is the way people pay for food at a restaurant. In the US, we often ask7.separate checks, so we each pay for our own meal. But here, if diners decide to pay separately, they8.(typical) don't request separate checks. Instead, they give money to one person who9.(pay) the bill. People also don't tip the server. Instead, there is often a service charge10.(add) to the bill.

Finishing Well
As 2019 draws to a close, it can be helpful to think about finishing what you have started. With that in mind, here are some thoughts on finishing projects and seasons well.
Finishing projects
One step to finishing a project comes near the beginning.1.This could mean getting an article published, submitting a report to your boss or teacher, or creating designs for a product. Whatever it is, if you don't know what your goal is, you're not likely to reach it.
In order to finish projects, you must also plan out the steps you will take. Break your big task into smaller ones, and give yourself a short-ten deadline for each of them.2.
Finishing the year
As we come to the end of 2019, it`s good to take some time to pause and reflect on the past year. 3.What would you like to do differently neat year？The answers to these questions may help you develop resolutions for the next year.
4.You could make a list of 12, one for each month, or 52, one for each week. Or just write down as many things as you can think of. This will help you end the year with a positive attitude. And don't neglect saying thank you to the people responsible for things on your list.
But reflecting on the past doesn't mean being immersed in your failures.5.No one can change the past, but you can learn from it and create a new future.
By finishing projects and years well, you can move toward your long-terns goals and set yourself up for future triumphs.
A.Take some time to visit your friends and celebrate.
B.What goals did you reach or what have you learned?
C.Define what it means for the project to be finished.
D.If you made. mistakes，recognize them and then move on.
E.Then commit to following your plan to the end.
F.While you're thinking，consider things you're thankful for from the year.
G.Learning from your achievements and mistakes will set you up for continued success.
People have gown taller over the last century, with South Korean women shooting up by more than 20cm on average, and Iranian men gaining 16. 5cm. A global study looked at the average height of 18 year-olds in 200 countries between 1914and 2014.
The results reveal that while Swedes were the tallest people in the world in 1914, Dutch men have risen from I2th place to claim top spot with an average height of 182. 5cm. Latvian women, meanwhile, rose from 28th place in 1914 to become the tallest in the world a century later, with an average height of 169. 8cm.
James Bentham, a co-author of the research from Imperial College, London, says the global trend is likely to be due primarily to improvements in nutrition and healthcare. “An individual's genetics has a big influence on their height, but once you average over whole populations, genetics plays a less key role, " he added.
A little extra height brings a number of advantages, says Elio Riboli of Imperial College. "Being taller is associated with longer life expectancy," he said. "This is largely due to a lower risk of dying of cardiovascular（心血管的）disease among taller people.”
But while height has increased around the world, the trend in many countries of north and sub-Saharan Africa causes concern, says Riboli. While height increased in Ugands and "Nigeria during the early 20th century, the trend has reversed in recant yeas, with height decreasing among 18-year-olds.
“One reason for these decreases in height is the economic situation in the 1980s," said Alexander Moradi df the University of Sussex. The nutritional and health crises that followed the policy of structural adjustment, he says, led to many children and teenagers failing to teach their full potential in terms of beight.
Bentham believes the global trend of increasing height has important inaolications. “How tall we are now is strongly influenced by the environment we grew up in," he said. "If we give children the best passible start in life now, they will be healthier and more productive for decades to come."
1.What does the global study tell us about people's height in the last hundred years?
A.There is a remarkable difference across cantinents.
B.There has been a marked increase in most countries.
C.The increase in people's height has been quickening.
D.The increase in women's height is bigger than in men's.
2.What does James Bentham say about genetics in the increase of people's height?
A.It counts Jess than generally thought.
B.It outweighs nutrition and healthcare.
C.It impacts more on an individual than on a population.
D.It plays a more significant role in females than in males.
3.What do we lean about 18-year-olds in Uganda and Nigeria?
A.They grow up slower than their peers in other countriea.
B.They are actually shorter than their earlier generations.
C.They find it hard to bring their potential into full play.
D.They have experienced many changes of govemment.
4.What does James Bentham suggest we do?
A.Watch closely the global trend in children's development.
B.Make sure that our children grow up to their full height.
C.Try every means possible to improve our environment.
D.Ensure our children grow up in an ideal environment.
On Dec 22, China became the third country in the world after Japan and the US to have a carbon dioxide（CO2）monitoring satellite.
Named Tansat, as "tan" is the Chinese word for carbon, the satellite moves around Earth at about 700 kilometers above the ground. There, it can “see” clearly how much CO2 there is in the air and how it is moving.
How is TanSat able to do that？When sunlight travels through the air, the CO2 molecules（分子）take in different colors from the light. The satellite then looks at these colors to find out how much CO2 there is in the air.
“The TanSat has very good vision（视力）, and it can tell changes in CO2 as small as 1 percent, ” said Yin Zeng shan, one of the satellite's designers at the Chinese Academy of Sciences, according to Xinhua News Agency.
But there is a question. When CO2 can already be measured from ground stations, why do we need a satellite that does the same thing？
The truth is that they don't do exactly the same thing. According to Zhang Peng, vice director of the National Satellite Meteorological Center, the data from ground stations is limited and it does not cover the ocean area, which takes up more than 70 petcent of Earth's surface.
But TanSat has solved the problem. It has a bird's eye view of the Earth, covering both the land and the ocean. It can also change its mode（模式）and position when looking at the ocean area because the water can reflect light. This light may change the data if its normal mode is used.
More importantly, China is now working on its goal of producing less CO, , starting from 2030 or earlier. To meet that goal, it will need to keep track of every bit of progress that it's making.
And with TauSat, China will have first-hand, detailed data of CO2 emissions in different areas, provinces and parts of the ocean, no longer having to use data from Japan and the US.
1.Which of the following about TanSat is TRUE？
A.It collects the CO2 in different areas above the ground.
B.It gets CO2 data by studying the colors of air.
C.It has been developed with the help of Japan and the US.
D.It has different modes to suit different weather conditions.
2.By reporting that the TanSat has very good "vision", the article shows that_______________.
A.the satellite uses many different kinds of cameras.
B.the satellite is very sensitive.
C.the satellite can capture every change in CO2.
D.the satellite can reflect light at 700 kilometers above the ground.
3.What can be concluded from the last paragraph?
A.TanSat is specially designed to reduce China's CO2 emissions.
B.China did not have any detailed data of CO2 emissions before.
C.TanSat will play a key role in helping to reduce China's CO2 emissions.
D.China is going to share its data of CO2 emissions with other countries.
4.What could be the best title for the passage?
A.Making great achievements B.Cutting CO2 emissions
C.Monitoring the ocean D.Checking more carbon
