Enjoyable Family Picnics Going for a picnic is great at any age． It can either be a simple lunch in the park or a family barbecue at the beach． Whether with little kids or just as a romantic afternoon date， picnics can be fun and relaxing． Just remember to prepare． Check the weather forecast．1. Picnics are never much fun when it gets too hot or starts to rain． If it is likely to rain， but you still make up your mind to go， think about bringing umbrellas． Pick a location suitable for your family's needs． Different locations are for different types of picnics．2. Choose one with a playground for them， and perhaps some bathrooms nearby． Do you want a quiet afternoon to read， or a park with a big field to play soccer on？ 3. Food is the most important part of a picnic， so don't forget it! Remember to bring any utensils （器皿） you might need， as well as napkins and a garbage bag to clean up afterwards． Bring some books， balls or anything else that could be fun． Finally， don't forget your camera． Other ideas． If it gets hot in the afternoon， why not try a morning picnic to enjoy the songs of birds in the fresh morning air？4. It can be fun to have a picnic in your backyard． If you're going on a hike， pack a lunch and turn it into a picnic． But remember to bring extra water! Remember to prepare， and you'll soon be enjoying picnics wherever you are． But keep in mind that not everything always go as planned．5.． A． What to bring． B． Do you have little kids？ C． Just learn to laugh and enjoy it anyway． D． Another idea is to stay at home． E． Not everybody likes eating outside． F． It may seem obvious but it's often forgotten． G． Do you need big trees to keep the heat off on a sunny day？
My challenge for you is this： to read a book for 15minutes every single day for a month． Let me explain a bit， by telling you where the challenge came from． I have many things in common with my dad， like music taste and sense of humor， but sadly reading isn't one of them． I can happily spend a whole day with a book， but my dad can't read a book for longer than about 5 minutes． He reads emails， websites and papers for work， but not books． He's busy， so I think sitting down to read for just 15minutes a day is a good way to relax and to introduce him to reading． My dad is not the only person who avoids books． I know lots of people would rather relax on their computers or in front of the TV． Everyone is different and has their own interests， but I think there are lots of benefits to reading， which screen﹣based activities don't have． Firstly， it's better for your eyes． Looking at screens can be very stressful for your eye muscles， and clearly you should avoid looking at screens for an hour before bed， to get a good night's sleep． One thing I personally love reading， is being transported to another world﹣I often forget the time or things around me! Reading is a great way to switch off before you go to bed， because you think more about the world of the book， rather than the real world， so you can truly relax． I know you can be transported to a different world in a film or a TV show， but I think books do it better． I also enjoy hearing what people are doing and finding out what they think． Reading gives me the chance to get to know hundreds of new people! It also teaches you to see things from other people's point of view， and understand other people's decisions or opinions． With a book， you can hear everything a character is thinking or feeling﹣you really can be inside someone else's head! So give it a go! Take 15 minutes when you are waking up， going to bed， eating lunch， or having a coffee． If you read a lot， why not try 15 minutes of an English book， or pass the challenge on to someone else？ Good luck， and happy reading! 1.The author mentions his father in the text to show ． A. his father is busy B. reading is important C. his father likes reading D. many people have no habit of reading 2.The author writes the text mainly basing on ． A. his personal experience B. some scientific experiments C. his father's personal advice D. knowledge from books 3.The underlined word "it" in Paragraph 5 refers to ． A. helping readers sleep well B. making readers feel relaxed C. transporting readers to a different world D. reminding readers of the real world 4.What is the author's attitude to reading？ A. Negative． B. Uncertain． C. Supportive． D. Doubtful．
An old English saying says， "Laughter is the best medicine．" One person who certainly would have agreed with this is Norman Cousins． Norman Cousins worked for a magazine called Saturday Review for almost forty years． He also wrote articles about peace， traveling to many different countries to share his ideas． In the 1960s， after returning to the United States from a busy and tiring trip to Europe， Mr． Cousins got sick． In less than a week after he got back， he could not stand． Every move that he made was painful． He was not able to sleep at night． The doctors told Mr． Cousins that they did not know how to cure his problem and he might never get over the illness． Mr． Cousins， however， refused to give up hope． Mr． Cousins thought the illness could be caused by unhappy thoughts． He did not want to take medicine to cure himself． Instead， he felt that happy thoughts or laughter might cure his illness． He began to experiment on himself while still in the hospital by watching comedy shows on television． Mr． Cousins quickly found that ten minutes of real laughter during the day gave him two hours of sleep without pain at night． Deciding that the doctors could not help him， Mr． Cousins left the hospital and checked into a hotel room where he could continue his experiments with laughter． For eight days， Mr． Cousins rested in the hotel room watching comedy shows on television， reading funny books， and sleeping whenever he felt tired． Within three weeks， he felt well enough to have a holiday to Puerto Rico， where he began running on the beach for exercise． After a few months， Ms． Cousins was able to carry on his work． He had laughed himself back to health． 1.The text is mainly about ． A. a funny person B. an amazing life C. an interesting cure D. a medical experiment 2.How did the doctors respond to Mr． Cousins' illness？ A. They promised to cure him． B. They didn't think he was really sick． C. They told him not to give up hope． D. They said they were unable to help him． 3.Mr． Cousins thought that he could be cured by ． A. thinking happily and laughing B. writing comedies and being positive C. taking a holiday and taking good care of himself D. running on the beach and relaxing
A mouse looked through the hole in the wall to see the farmer and his wife open a package， and he was devastated to discover it was a mousetrap． Returning to the farmyard， he warned everybody， "There is a mousetrap in the house! There is a mousetrap in the house! There is a mousetrap in the house!" The chicken raised her head and said， "Thanks for your warning， Mr． Mouse， but why should I be bothered by a mousetrap？" The pig sympathized， but said， "Wow， Mr． Mouse， I'm sorry for you． I can tell this is a great concern to you， but it is none of my business．" The cow was busy eating grass， and said， "I am very sorry， Mr． Mouse， but I can do nothing but pray for you．" The mouse returned to the house， head down and depressed， to face the farmer's mousetrap alone． That very night a sound was heard throughout the house﹣like the sound of a mousetrap catching its prey． The farmer's wife rushed to see what was caught． In the darkness， she did not see it was a snake whose tail was caught by the trap， and it bit her． The farmer rushed her to the hospital and she returned home with a fever． The farmer killed the chicken to make fresh chicken soup for his wife， but her sickness continued． Friends and neighbors came to visit her， and to feed them， the farmer butchered the pig． Then she died． So many people came for her funeral that the farmer had the cow cooked to provide enough meat for all of them． The mouse looked upon it all from his hole in the wall with great sadness． 1.What does the underlined word in the first paragraph mean？ A. Greatly amused． B. Completely relaxed． C. Slightly impressed． D. Extremely shocked． 2.What can we infer from what the cow said？ A. He could do nothing to help the mouse． B. He wanted to help the mouse but was too busy． C. He thought the mousetrap would not harm him． D. He felt very sorry for not being able to help the mouse． 3.Which of the following can be the best title of the passage？ A. Stupid animals B. The mousetrap C. A kind mouse D. Stories in the farmyard

But when it comes to pigs, we somehow reach an agreement that pigs are lazy, ugly, stupidly and shameless. Neither of these words describing pigs are exactly positive. Moreover, the truth is what pigs have some good qualities. And there’s probably no good time to clear their names than now, with the arrival of the Year of the Pig on Chinese Spring Festival, which fell February 5 this year. According to a paper publishing in 2017, pigs can tell between those who treat them well or those who don’t. Perhaps these are the qualities of pigs to keep it in mind—their intelligence, cuteness and patience.

A recent survey shows that roughly 85 percent of people feel physical symptoms of stress. 1. , and they will help you feel more energetic tomorrow: • Double your chews Chewing is a super-important part of the digestion process. Chewing makes it easier for your body to break down food and turn it into energy. The most proper number of chews per bite is unclear. 2.. It will be easy for your body to break down the food and store energy. • Drink one less cup of coffee Although caffeine in coffee blocks your brain from receiving adenosine, which causes tiredness, it doesn’t stop your body from producing it. So once the caffeine disappears, it’s the buildup of adenosine that causes you to crash and reach for more caffeine, creating a bad circle. 3., but drinking less coffee can help you feel more energetic over the long term. • Take a few deep breaths By not breathing deeply enough, you end up sending a signal to your nervous system that increases your anxiety even further. Changing your breathing habits by taking a few long, slow breaths throughout the day reduces the stress response while energizing your cells. 4.: Simply breathe in through your nose for a count of three and out through your mouth for a count of three. Repeat as necessary. • 5. Take some time to reflect on the positive by writing down three things that went smoothly during your day or just items you feel grateful for. This exercise can prepare your mind for what’s going right in your life, hitting the brakes on stress increases while helping to protect your energy reserves. A. Set down what went well today B. Try an exercise to achieve this C. Reflect on your day sometimes D. Reducing your reliance on it sounds scary E. Take a look at the small changes you can make today F. Shallow breathing is one of the annoying side effects of stress G. However, it’s been suggested that 25 to 40 times will be beneficial
In 2015, a man named Nigel Richards memorized 386, 000 words in the entire French Scrabble Dictionary in just nine weeks. However, he does not speak French. Richards’ impressive feat is a useful example to show how artificial intelligence works—real AI. Both of Richard and AI take in massive amounts of data to achieve goals with unlimited memory and superman accuracy in a certain field. The potential applications for AI are extremely exciting. Because AI can outperform humans at routine tasks—provided the task is in one field with a lot of data—it is technically capable of replacing hundreds of millions of white and blue collar jobs in the next 15 years or so. But not every job will be replaced by AI. In fact, four types of jobs are not at risk at all. First, there are creative jobs. AI needs to be given a goal to optimize. It cannot invent, like scientists, novelists and artists can. Second, the complex, strategic jobs—executives, diplomats, economists — go well beyond the AI limitation of single-field and Big Data. Then there are the as-yet-unknown jobs that will be created by AI. Are you worried that these three types of jobs won’t employ as many people as AI will replace? Not to worry, as the fourth type is much larger: jobs where emotions are needed, such as teachers, nannies and doctors. These jobs require compassion, trust and sympathy—which AI does not have. And even if AI tried to fake it, nobody would want a robot telling them they have cancer, or a robot to babysit their children. So there will still be jobs in the age of AI. The key then must be retraining the workforce so people can do them. This must be the responsibility not just of the government, which can provide funds, but also of corporations and those who benefit most. 1.What is the main purpose of paragraph 1? A. To introduce the topic. B. To mention Nigel’s feat. C. To stress the importance of good memory. D. To suggest humans go beyond AI in memory. 2.Which of the following best explains “outperform” underlined in paragraph 2? A. Be superior to B. Be equal to C. Be similar to D. Be related to 3.Which of the following jobs is the most likely to be replaced? A. The writer. B. The shop assistant. C. The babysitter. D. The psychologist. 4.What does the text suggest people do about job replacement of AI? A. Limit the application of AI to a certain degree. B. Get more support from the government. C. Apply for the donation from companies. D. Upgrade themselves all the time.
A woman grasped her phone to her heart the way a minister might hold a Bible. She was anxious to take a picture of a bunch of flowers that sat not 10 feet away, but first she had to get through a crowd of others pushing to do the same. The cause of this was Bouquets to Art, one of the most popular annual events at the de Young Museum in San Francisco. For the 34th year, artists were asked to create flower bunches that respond to pieces of art on display, from ancient carvings to contemporary sculptures. It’s time to take a photo to post on Instagram, but to the point that it has become a problem. In recent years» the de Young received more than a thousand complaints from people who felt that cell phones had ruined their experience. In fact, institutions of fine art around the world face similar problems as the desire to take photographs becomes a huge draw for museums as well as something that upsets some of their visitors. So the de Young responded with a kind of compromise: carving out “photo free” hours during the exhibition’s six-day run. One common complaint in the ongoing debates over the effect of social media on museum culture is that people seem to be missing out on experiences because they are so busy collecting evidence of them. A recent study in the journal Psychological Science suggests there is some truth to this; it found that people who took photos of an exhibit rather than simply observing it had a harder time remembering what they saw. But the issue is complicated for the professionals running museums. Linda Butler, the de Young’s head of marketing, communications and visitor experience, acknowledges that not everyone wants a museum to be “a photo-taking playland. ” Yet a lot of other people do, and she thinks that the de Young is in no position to judge that one motivation for buying a $ 28 ticket is more valid than another. “If we removed social media and photography,” she says, “we would risk becoming less popular.” If this is a battle, signs indicate that the pro-phone crowd (亲手机人群) has already won. 1.What were the crowd eager to do in Paragraph 1? A. To hold a Bible. B. To admire flowers. C. To take a photo. D. To see the exhibition. 2.How did the de Young respond to the complaints? A. By setting periods without photo-taking. B. By making the exhibition free of charge. C. By compromising with other institutions. D. By giving extra time to take photos freely. 3.What can we infer about the use of social media in museums according to the recent study? A. It uncovers the truth. B. It accumulates evidence. C. It causes complaints. D. It plays a negative role. 4.Which of the following may Linda Butler support? A. Catering to visitors. B. Reducing admission prices. C. Reserving judgement in public. D. Banning social media and photography.
