October 15th is the Global Handwashing Day. Activities are planned in more than 20 countries to get millions of people in the developing world to wash their hands with soap. For example, donators(捐赠者) will give 150,000 bars of soap to schools in Ethiopia. Experts say people around the world wash their hands every day, but very few use soap at so-called important moments. These include after washing the toilet, after cleaning a baby and before touching food. Global Handwashing Day is the idea of the Public-Private Partnership for Handwashing with Soap. Partners include the United Nations Children’s Fund, American government agencies, the World Bank and soap makers Unlever and Procter and Gamble. The organizers say all soaps are equally effective at removing disease-causing germs(细菌). They say the correct way to wash is to wet your hands with a small amount of water and cover them with soap. Rub(揉搓) it into all areas, including under the fingernails. Rub for at least twenty seconds. Then rinse well under running water. At last, dry your hands with a clean cloth or wave them in the air. The Partnership for Handwashing says soap is important because it increases the time that people spend in washing hands. Soap also helps to break up the dirt that holds most of the germs. And it usually leaves a pleasant smell. The Partnership for Handwashing also says washing with soap before eating or after using the toilet could save more lives than any vaccine(疫苗) or medicine. Hand washing could also prevent the spread of other diseases. When people get germs on their hands, they can infect(感染)themselves by touching their eyes, noses or mouths. Then they can infect others. 1.What’s the best title for this passage? A.Hand washing: so important---it gets a day of its own. B.Find out why washing hands carefully is so important. C.Say no to washing hands in the wrong way. D.Want to live a longer life?---wash your hands. 2.The underlined word “rinse” in Paragraph 3 probably means _________. A.to dry your hands B.to rub your hands carefully C.to wash away the soap D.to clean your fingers 3.The last paragraph mainly tells us _________. A.how to wash your hands correctly B.why washing hands with soap is so important C.the dangers of washing hands without soap D.when we should especially wash our hands with soap 4.In which part of a newspaper would you most probably read this passage? A.Advertisement. B.Public service. C.Medical care. D.Health report.

I always had the best intentions of packing my lunch, but putting this healthy habit into practice was a different story. I was always jealous when I would see my coworkers with their cute food containers full of fresh ingredients(食材). Occasionally, I would be inspired to have a productive Sunday afternoon when I would cook my favorite food, but once Wednesday passed, I would be back on the street, trying to figure out what sounded good to eat. However, to form the habit of packing my lunch is not an easy thing. At first, the idea of packing my lunch felt like a sacrifice, but since I started bringing healthy food to work, I have not given it up. I'm able to bring foods that are rich in fiber and protein, and I avoid ingredients that make my blood sugar rise sharply. This was the big kicker for me to keep this healthy habit for good. Portion(份量) control has always been a big issue for me. If there is food on my plate, I'm going to eat it. By packing my own lunch, I'm easily able to manage portions and know my ingredient choices. Eating a cleaner and lighter lunch not only supports my general weight loss goals, but it also makes space for the occasional weeknight dinner out that I can enjoy freely. When developing my budget for 2017, I made a point to get real about the large expenses I did not even realize. Until I looked at my credit card statement, I had no idea how much money I was spending on my lunch every week. It's hard in the big city to find something that's fresh, nutritious, and filling for under $10.That's $50 a week I could be saving…Quite a sum of money, isn't it? 1.What can we know from the first paragraph? A.Saying is one thing, and doing another. B.Failure is the mother of success. C.Actions speak louder than words. D.Rome is not built in a day. 2.The change the author has made in eating habits suggests ________. A.she regrets making so many sacrifices B.she is a person with determination C.she is not quite an independent person D.she likes imitating her colleagues in life 3.Thanks to packing her lunch to work, the author ________. A.saves the time to buy ingredients B.stops having dinner out on weekends C.can eat in a cleaner and lighter way D.makes room for her weightloss training 4.We can conclude from the last paragraph that packing her lunch to work in a sense ________. A.has helped reduce her life expenses B.has kept her blood sugar going up sharply C.increases her chance to use the credit card D.makes her get used to the life in big cities

You probably love your dog more than you love some humans. The level of love and trust you feel toward your pet is probably not different from what you feel toward any other family member. But is the feeling mutual(相互的)？1. ⅰ.He/She learns your routines. Trust is understood differently for humans and animals. 2. So the best way to build a relationship with your dog is to make these routines positive interactions. ⅱ.His/Her eyes say it all. When dogs and their owners stared into each other's eyes during a 30minute period, both of their oxytocin levels increased. Oxytocin has also been called the love hormone and the cuddle(拥抱) hormone. 3. And it is produced when we're around someone we love and trust. This result could mean that the dogs were trying to form bonds with their owners—definitely a sign of trust. ⅲ.4. Typically, dogs sleep in a place that they are comfortable, so sleeping in an owner's room could certainly be an indication of comfort. The environment can affect whether your dog settles down in your room or on your bed. However, you may want to carefully weigh your pros and cons before you invite him/her into your bed. ⅳ.He/She doesn't see you angry often. 5. But a study suggested that dogs can read your emotions, and they're less likely to trust you when you're in a bad mood. When dogs saw the negative behavior, they were less willing to search for the treat. A．He/She sleeps in your room. B．Don't be angry with your dog. C．He/She enjoys comfortable places. D．It's normal to get annoyed at your dog. E．Here's how to tell if your dog trusts you. F．It's used to help mothers bond with their babies. G．Pets rely on routines to feel normal and have happy lives.

阅读下面短文，根据所给情节进行续写，使之构成一个完整的故事。 Ali and his younger sister, Zahra, lived with their parents in a poor neighborhood. Their mother was very sick and their father was struggling to find a job, and they had only a little money with which to buy food. As they had not paid the rent for several months, the landlord was breathing down their necks(盯着他们). One day, Ali took Zahra’s shoes to a shoe repairman to be fixed, but he lost them on the way home. It wasn’t until he got home that he realized he had lost the shoes. He was afraid that his parents would be angry and disappointed, so he begged his sister to keep it secret. Zahra agreed and the two decided to share Ali’s running shoes. Zahra’s school hours were in the morning, so she would wear them first. After school, she would rush back and give them to Ali. He could then run to his school, which began in the afternoon. Although he ran as fast as he could, Ali often arrived late and was warned by the school. Ali heard about a long distance race that was held for the boys in the city. When he learned that the third prize was a new pair of shoes, he decided to take part. He ran home excitedly and promised his sister that he would win her the new shoes. The day of race arrived. Ali had a strong start, but halfway through the race he began to get tired and his legs began to ache. Getting more and more exhausted he thought only of Zahra and his promise to her. Dreaming of the new shoes he would win for his sister gave him strength, and he stayed right behind the two fastest runners, determined to finish third. Suddenly, as the finish line drew near, another runner collided(碰撞) with Ali from behind and he crashed to the ground. 注意： 1. 所续写短文的词数应为150左右； 2. 应使用5个以上短文中标有下划线的关键词语； 3. 续写部分分为两段，每段的开头语已为你写好； 4. 续写完成后，请用下划线标出你所使用的关键词语。 Paragraph 1: Ali looked up and saw the other boys rushing ahead. ______________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: Filled with delight, Ali walked home quickly. __________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________
