Winter is a really fun time of the year. It's great to have snowball fights and build snowmen.1.When it's cold outside and you're not prepared, you will feel uncomfortable. Luckily, learning how to stay safe is not difficult.
2. Wearing thick clothes is the best way to stay warm in the cold days. Depending on where you live and how cold it is, some kids may need more clothes or some may need less.
Take that hat. You maybe wear a large overcoat and ready to go, but do you forget something?3. You'll stay much warmer with a hat, or tons of body heat will escape right from your head.
Drink up. Sounds like advice for hot weather, not cold weather, right? Well, the truth is that it's good advice for both kinds of weather. When you're outside in the cold and breathing hard, your body loses a lot of water through your breath. 4.
Take it easy. Sometimes if you're out having fun, it's easy to forget to pay attention to your body. But if your body temperature drops even 4 or 5 degrees while you're outside, it can make you feel terrible. 5. And if you ever feel weak, those are signs that you have to take it easy indoors for a while.

B.Pull a hat onto your head.
C.And the best way to get that water back is to drink up!
D.That's why you need to be careful with your body's signals.
E.But you have to know how to be safe while you're out having fun.

Well, I'm in Venice, Italy, with my family! Venice is wonderful! The city is hundreds of years old, and it's built on water. People get around on special boats called gondolas, and today I had my first gondola ride!
A gondolier controls the gondola using an oar and his own strength. The gondolier's job is to describe Venice's culture and history as he takes you through the city's canals. Our gondolier was so good at telling stories that I almost forgot I was sharing the ride with my parents.
That might sound exciting, and it was, but of course I was with... my dad. And Dad thought it would be funny to wear a striped shirt to match the gondolier's shirt. Can you say embarrassing?
My parents loved looking at the beautiful bridges, churches, and palaces along the route. I really enjoyed listening to our gondolier talk about his work. He told us that it takes years of study and practice to get the job. Who knew? He also told us that of all the gondoliers in Venice, only one is a woman! I think I need to change that! It's time to start training for my dream job! Maybe my dad will let me borrow his shirt.
Gondola Tours of Venice gave me a great tour of a beautiful city—and an interesting idea for my future career! I recommend the gondola tour to anyone who's interested in learning about unusual places and unusual jobs ... especially if they're stuck on a boat with their parents!

(2019安徽B篇)Have you tried to run or walk for exercise and then given up? If you answered yes, you should try a new kind of exercise: aquatic(水中的)exercise. Aquatic exercise is like exercise on land, but you do it in a swimming pool. More and more people are trying aquatic exercise.
Aquatic exercise feels easier than exercising on land. Why? You weigh about 90% less in the pool. It is better for your knees than running or walking. Water is about 1，000 times thicker and heavier than air. To move through the water, your body has to work four times as hard. As a result, you can burn more calories(卡路里)．
In fact, most people say they feel more relaxed in the water. They stop thinking about the things that make them worried. They feel in control of their bodies. The cool, quiet environment makes them feel good.
But what if you are afraid of the water? No problem! There is nothing to worry about. Aquatic exercise is safe and easy to learn. It doesn't require any special skills. You don't even need to know how to swim. Aquatic exercise is for everyone.
Which paragraph gives opinions about “the advantages of aquatic exercise”？
A.Paragraph 1. B.Paragraph 2. C.Paragraph 3. D.Paragraph 4.
(2019河南C篇)Thousands of years ago, Britain was covered by thick forests, home to many animals which no longer live in the United Kingdom. There were wolves and bears, many different kinds of deer and large wild cows. There were less than four million people. They lived in small villages protected by wooden walls from the animals outside.
All this has changed, of course. Now the population of the United Kingdom has increased to sixtyfive million. Threequarters of Britain is covered with fields, towns or cities. Although 25 percent of land is countryside, new methods of farming mean that there are fewer birds and small animals living in fields than ever before. The United Kingdom is one of the few countries in the world that does not have a large wild animal that eats meat. In Scotland there are only 400 wildcats, but these are much smaller than wolves.
Some people would like to change things, however! Some organizations and writers say that Britain needs to become more natural again. They suggest that trees and plants that grew in the UK before towns and cities were built should be allowed to grow again. They even say that large wild animals which have not lived in the UK should be helped to return and live wild. They call this “rewilding”．
Not everyone agrees. In the last twenty years, over one million trees which at first grew in Scotland have been planted and there are plans for more—but wild animals? Some people ask if wolves will attack sheep or even humans. They are also angry that rewilding might mean an end to walking in the hills which so many people enjoy. So far there are no wolves or bears in Britain's forests—but soon there might be!
Which paragraph gives opinions from “rewilding”supporters?
A.Paragraph 1. B.Paragraph 2. C.Paragraph 3. D.Paragraph 4.
