This afternoon after school, our English group get together with our English teacher. To start with, we sang a popular English song happy and then we practiced our speak English. The topic we were talking about was the different between Chinese festivals and Western ones. Most students compared the Spring Festival to Christmas and others chose the Mid-Autumn Festival or Thanksgiving Day as a match.

As we had been talked too many, all of us got quite thirsty. Seeing this, our teacher took some bottles of water from hers car and handed them out to us. What timely offer! Thank you, my dear teacher!

    Concerts should be a fun and enjoyable occasion for everyone attending them, including the musicians. No matter what type of concert one is attending, he is still expected to follow the rules of concert etiquette(礼仪).1.

Classical music concerts are often events when concert etiquette is considered to be very important. One should generally arrive a few minutes before the show starts, so he can be in his seat at the beginning of the first musical performance. If he arrives late, it may be considered rude to walk in and take his seat in the middle of a musical performance.2.In this way, he will not influence other audiences while the music is being played.

3..Take jazz concerts for example. People are usually not criticized (批评) for making a small amount of noise, as long as it is not troubling other audiences. For example, they may talk quietly during a performance.

Rock and heavy metal concert etiquette is very relaxed4.However,audiences are still expected to show some good manners during a performance.Also, rock concerts are often very crowded, particularly in the areas surrounding the stage.

5.But one should still pay attention to his surroundings.Stepping on someone's foot repeatedly may cause a fight as well.

A.This will usually be announced before the concert begins.

B.Instead, he should wait for one song to end before taking his seat.

C.Rock concert goers, on the other hand, can usually get a little louder.

D.People are not usually discouraged from talking at these types of concerts

E.In large groups of people like this, it is not unusual to touch others at times.

F.Concert etiquette for other types of concerts is usually a little more relaxed.

G.And the concert etiquette can be different, depending on what type of concert it is.

    More than 100 scientists from 25 countries have traveled to faraway places to collect wild crop seeds(种子) in an effort to help battle climate change.

The scientists, who have been compared to the heroes of the “Indiana Jones” movies, traveled on foot, four-wheeled vehicles(交通工具), boats, horses and even elephants to reach faraway areas. They faced extreme heat,dust, and danger from wild animals. At last, they collected 4, 644 seeds of 371 wild relatives of 28 world crops, many of which are said to be endangered.

The Crop Trust, an organization that works to save different kinds of crops, is directing the project. The group is working in partnership with Britain's Royal Botanic Gardens and Millennium Seed Bank. Additional financial support comes from Norway. The project is believed to be the largest organized international effort yet to collect and protect crops' wild relatives.Hannes Dempewolf is a scientist and the head at the Crop Trust. He said“What these seed collectors went through in the field resembles scenes from an Indiana Jones movie.”

Some crops are threatened because of destruction of forests, climate change and expanded cities. The newly-found wild seeds have developed so plants can grow in extreme temperatures, poor soils, and even in low rainfall areas.

A United Nations report says that food production is at risk because of a shortage of rain and other weather extremes connected to climate change. The U.N. Food and Agriculture Organization says that the number of plant species is quickly decreasing and people are depending on fewer species for food. Those wild seeds could be important in feeding a growing human population in some areas and offer a largely unused source of diversity(多样性) to crops.

1.What does the second paragraph show?

A.Collecting seeds is not an easy job.

B.The scientists’ story is made into a movie.

C.The wild seeds are in danger of extinction.

D.The scientists can choose from many vehicles.

2.What does the underlined word “resembles”in the third paragraph mean?

A.Depends on. B.Looks like.

C.Turns out. D.Refers to.

3.What is the advantage of the newly-found wild seeds?

A.They can increase green areas. B.They can provide more nutrients

C.They can survive bad conditions. D.They can improve existent crop seeds.

4.What is the meaning of the scientists collecting wild seeds?

A.Bringing more plant species to the world.

B.Helping farmers improve their farming skills.

C.Knowing about the worlds farming practices.

D.Helping battle climate change.

    Running is often tiring and a lot of hard work, but nothing beats the feeling you get after finishing a long workout around the track.

But while it’s long been believed that endorphins (脑内啡) — chemicals in the body that cause happiness — are behind the so-called “runner’s high”, a study suggested that there may be more to this phenomenon than we previously knew.

According to a recent study published by a group of scientists from several German universities, a group of chemicals called endocannabinoids (内源性大麻素) may actually be responsible for this familiar great feeling.

To test this theory, the scientists turned to mice.

Both mice and humans release high levels of endorphins and endocannabinoids after exercise, along with many other chemicals. After exercising on running wheels, the mice seemed happy and relaxed and displayed no signs of anxiety.

But after being given a drug to block their endorphins the change. However, when their endocannabinoids were block with a different drug, their runner’s high symptoms seemed to fade.

“The long-held notion of endorphins being responsible for the runner's high is false. Endorphins are effective pain relievers, but only when it comes to the pain in your body and muscles you feel after working out,” Patrick Lucas Austin wrote on science blog Lifchacker.

Similar studies are yet to be carried out on humans, but it’s already well known that exercise is a highly effective way to get rid of stress or anxiety.

The UK’s National Health Service even prescribes (开药方) exercise to patients who are suffering from depression.

“Being depressed can leave you feeling low in energy, which might put you off being more active. Regular exercise can boost your mood if you have depression, and it’s especially useful for people with mild to moderate (中等的) depression,” it wrote on its website.

It seems like nothing can beat that feeling we get after a good workout, even if we don’t fully understand where it comes from. At least if we’re feeling down, we know that all we have to do is put on our running shoes.
