Chinese culture values family bonds very much. Family members don't just gather during the holidays .In fact they often live under one roof all year round. 1.. Families in the East and West are very different from each other. In most East Asian cultures, extended families are common. 2. According to the Atlantic, 90 percent of children in Shanghai and 70 percent of children in Beijing were cared for by their grandparents. Chinese people believe that "a grandparent is a treasure to their family". In many Western countries, most families are nuclear families （小家庭）. These are solely made up of children and their parents. Additionally, the duties parents have toward their children can also differ.3.. It's normal for parents to pay for their children's college, help them find a job, or buy them an apartment. Chinese adults also follow their parents' opinions when making major life decisions, more often than not. In most Western countries, however, kids usually move out of the house after they turn 18. 4.. Also, if they choose to keep living with their parents after becoming an adult, it can be seen by some as a failure on their part. While the East cares more about close family bonds, the West values privacy and independence. 5.. Families will always be a source of love, warmth, and care for people around the world. A. These families have three or even four generations living together B. Nuclear families are the most common type in China. C. In China, many parents look after their children all the way into adulthood. D. Different cultures have different family values. E. But in the end, home is best 一 east or west. F. Many young people going to college often need to take out loans and work part-time jobs in order to pay for tuition and rent. G. Both Easterners and Westerners value quality family time.
Do you have good friends? Do you sometimes feel so close to them that they are like family to you? It turns out that this isn’t just an expression. A study by Yale University and the University of California, San Diego, has found that you and your friends have more genes in common than strangers do, the Guardian reported. Researchers looked at the genes of 1,932 people and compared them in pairs of unrelated friends and strangers. They found that friends have 1 percent of genes that match. “One percent may not sound like much to the layperson (外行), but to geneticists (遗传学家) it is a significant number,” Professor Nicholas Christakis of Yale University told Discovery News. In fact, this is the same amount of genes you share with your fourth cousins, those who have the same great-great-great grandparents as you. So is it a coincidence that you become friends with people who share your genes? Not at all. In fact, it is evolution that brings you together. People who share certain genes also share skills and have similar likes and dislikes, researchers said. In ancient times, it was critical that people who were alike stayed together. For example, people who had a similar susceptibility (易感性) to the cold were more likely to help each other build a fire, giving them a better chance to survive. Researchers also found that among all the genes studied, those affecting sense of smell were the most similar in friends. This is probably because people who smell things in the same way are more easily drawn to similar environments. For example, people who like the smell of coffee may hang out at cafes more often and are therefore more likely to meet and become friends with each other. Based on their findings, the team has developed an interesting test called the “friendship score”. It calculates how big the chances are that two people will be friends by studying their genes. So, here is a question for you: would you like to take this test and know in advance who your friends are going to be, or would you still prefer to figure it out by yourself and let time be the judge? 1.What is the author’s main purpose in writing the article? A.To explain why friends share skills and interests. B.To report on recent findings about making friends. C.To analyze what influences the way people make friends. D.To explain an interesting test called the “friendship score”. 2.According to the researchers of the study, people _______. A.form friendships by complete coincidence B.are genetically similar to their friends, compared to strangers C.make friends with those who share nearly 10 percent of their genes D.may share more similar genes with their friends than with their fourth cousins 3.With the examples of ancient people developing the ability to speak and helping each other build a fire, the author intends to _______. A.show how ancient people helped each other survive B.explain that similar interests are what lead to friendship C.show that it is evolution that brings friends together D.tell us why it was easier for ancient people to find friends 4.According to the article, people with similar genes that affect their sense of smell ______. A.like to hang out at cafes more often B.are easily attracted to the smell of their friends C.are more likely to be attracted to a similar environment D.can identify people in a crowd who can become friends
Some people sit outside for hours without getting bitten by mosquitoes, but it always seems like you’re being eaten alive within minutes of stepping outdoors. If this is you, you’re not alone. According to Smithsonian Magazine, around 20 percent of people in the world are especially tasty to mosquitoes. What about these people makes mosquitoes’ mouths water? A popular myth claims that mosquitoes prefer certain blood types, but the fact is that they simply can’t tell what your blood type is from a faraway place. Jonathon Day, a professor of medical entomology (昆虫学) at the University of Florida in the US, told NBC it’s not complicated. “The two most important reasons a mosquito is attracted to you have to do with sight and smell.” Mosquitoes are especially active in the late afternoon. While flying along, they use their sense of smell to find possible targets. They find victims (攻击对象) by smelling the carbon dioxide (CO2) breathed out by humans and animals. That’s why you commonly find them in crowded streets and parks. Joop van Loon, an entomologist at Wageningen University in the Netherlands, told Live Science, “Mosquitoes start orienting (使......朝向) themselves to carbon dioxide and keep flying upwind as they sense higher concentrations (浓度).” As a result, people who simply exhale (呼出) more of the gas over time – generally, larger people – have been shown to attract more mosquitoes than others. “This is why kids don’t get bitten as much ... as adults,” US professor Ted Rosen told Science Alert. This love for CO2 can also put pregnant women at increased risk for mosquito bites, as they tend to exhale 21 percent more CO2 than people of the same age and size who aren’t pregnant. In addition to carbon dioxide, the color of the clothes you wear also plays a role in attracting mosquitoes. According to Live Science, mosquitoes can lock onto targets from up to 50 meters away. At this distance, what we wear has a huge effect. Due to their vision (视觉), people wearing dark colors are more likely to become targets. Being bitten by mosquitoes is annoying, but don’t worry. Some simple tips can help ward them off. Scientists recommend that we use insect repellent (驱虫剂) and wear light-colored clothing. 1.How do mosquitoes locate their targets, according to the article? A.By seeking out bright clothes. B.By identifying different blood types. C.By sensing an increase of carbon dioxide. D.By following bigger crowds. 2.Why are pregnant women more likely to be bitten by mosquitoes? A.Their larger size helps mosquitoes to see them. B.They breathe out more CO2. C.They are more likely to sweat. D.Their body temperatures are higher. 3.How does the article advise you to avoid mosquitoes? A.Exercise regularly. B.Wear light-colored clothing. C.Keep your skin dry and clean. D.Stay indoors in the evening. 4.What’s the article mainly about? A.A new finding about mosquitoes. B.How people can avoid mosquito bites. C.A popular myth about mosquitoes. D.Why some people are more attractive to mosquitoes than others.
On a recent trip to the island of Newfoundland, Canada, my husband asked our talkative cab driver what made him most proud to be from there. “Our generosity and hospitality (好客),” he replied in a strong local accent. “Your car breaks down in the middle of nowhere, someone will stop to help. People here are kind like that.” His answer lingered in my mind during that ride with my husband and teenage kids, as we headed out to explore on the first day of our vacation. Little did I know we were about to experience some of that remarkable Newfoundland kindness for ourselves. We met Alma that same morning at the start of a long hike. Our teenagers hurried ahead, and as we walked behind, admiring the scenery, two women in sunglasses and summer hiking gear stopped. They’d heard us discussing different routes, then asked if we’d like suggestions. They looked to be in their 40s, and were both enthusiastic to share their local expertise. We listened eagerly, taking mental notes, until one of the women asked, “You have a car, right?” I explained that there were no cars available during our week on the island, so we had to rely on cabs instead. “Oh no,” she said, “you need a car.” And then, as casually as if offering a piece of chewing gum (口香糖), she said: “Take mine!” Dumbfounded, my husband and I just smiled in disbelief. “Why not?” She insisted. “You need a car to get to know all these places.” “But you don’t even know us,” I said. “That doesn’t matter,” she continued with absolute determination. Stunned, I looked over at her friend, who shrugged and said, “That’s Alma.” Forty minutes of talking later, my family climbed into Alma’s car. We spent the rest of our vacation discovering different areas of this beautiful island. But it wasn’t the groups of whales we saw, or the vast areas of woodland, that made this place so memorable. Instead, it was the act of kindness from a complete stranger that made us realize how special Newfoundland really was. Next year, there’s no doubt where we’ll be taking our summer vacation. Who knows what act of kindness we’ll meet then? 1.What problem did the author’s family have in Newfoundland? A.They couldn’t understand the local accent. B.Their car broke down on the first day. C.They got lost during a hike. D.They didn’t have a car. 2.The underlined word “dumbfounded” in Paragraph 12 is closest in meaning to ______. A.shocked B.satisfied C.relieved D.embarrassed 3.What impressed the author most during her stay in Newfoundland? A.The talkative cab driver. B.The whales swimming. C.The beautiful scenery of the island. D.The help from an enthusiastic stranger. 4.What can we infer about the author from the last paragraph? A.She is looking forward to meeting Alma once more. B.She expects to visit Newfoundland again. C.She hasn’t decided where to go next year. D.She also wants to be kind to others during vacation.

At last the eggs started to crack（破壳）. One by one the little ducklings came out of the eggs. “Cheep! Cheep!”they cried as they saw the big outside world. Soon all the eggs had hatched except one. It was the biggest of all the eggs. Mother duck sat on the egg a little longer and at last the egg started to crack. Out came the chick. “Oh dear,” she said, “you're so big and ugly.” The next day was warm and sunny so the duck took her ducklings down to the water. One by one the ducklings followed her. Soon they were all swimming. even the big ugly one. Then they went to the farmyard. “Stay close to me and watch out for the cat,” Mother duck told her family. They lived in the yard with the other animals, but the ugly duckling was very unhappy. The other ducks pecked（啄） at him and laughed at him. He wanted to run away as he was so unhappy, and one day he did. He ran away until he came to the marshes（沼泽） where the wild ducks lived. He stayed there for two days, feeling very tired and lonely. The wild ducks came and looked at him. “You're very ugly!” they said and laughed at him. Poor little ugly duckling! He ran away over the fields and meadows（草地）. The wind blew and the duckling was so cold and tired. It was getting dark and he looked for somewhere to spend the night. Luckily, he found a little house. There was a gap（间隙） in the door and he went inside for some warmth. An old woman lived in the house. She had a cat which could purr（咕噜咕噜叫) and a hen which laid eggs. The old woman said, “If you can lay eggs for us, you can stay.” So he stayed but he couldn’t lay eggs. The cat said to him. “Can you purr?” “No, ”said the duckling. 注意 1.所续写短文的词数应为150左右； 2.至少使用5个短文中标有下线的关键词语； 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，请用下标线标出你所使用的关键词语。 提示词：swan天鹅 Paragraph I Winter was coming and the ground was cold and hard. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2 One day, after he woke up he felt that something strange happened. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

I was walking down the road one day _____my cell phone rang. A strange voice on the other end spoke to me, “Dad, please come back soon. I miss you so much!” I judged that it was a ___number .A little while later, the call came once again, so I rudely _____, “You’ve dialed the wrong number!” and then _____. During the following days, I got the same ____ now and then. But I didn’t care much about it. Then one day she constantly called me even though I didn't answer, which ____ me that something unusual would happen. Finally I answered the phone and heard a weak voice, “Dad, please come back. I miss you so much! Dad, I’m ____ so much pain! Mom said you were too busy to take ____ of me. But, dad, please ____ me again, OK?” The simple ____ was difficult to refuse.

Healthy eating is not just what you eat, but how you eat. Here are some tips for you: Eat with others whenever possible. Eating with other people has numerous benefits, especially for children. 1. Eating in front of the TV or computer often leads to mindless overeating. Take time to chew(咀爵) your food and enjoy mealtime. 2. We tend to rush through our meals, forgetting to enjoy the flavor and feel the taste of what is in our mouths. 3. Ask yourself if you are really hungry, or have a glass of water to see if you are thirsty instead of hungry. During the meal, stop eating before you feel full. It actually takes a few minutes for your brain to tell your body that it has had enough food, so eat slowly. 4. A healthy breakfast can jumpstart your metabolism(新陈代谢), and eating small, healthy meals throughout the day (rather than the standard three large meals) keeps your energy up and your metabolism going. Avoid eating at night. 5. And then don’t eat for 12-14 hours until breakfast the next morning. Studies suggest that eating only when you’re most active and giving your digestive(消化的) system a long break each day may help to keep fit. A. Drink plenty of water. B. Try to have dinner earlier. C. Be careful when eating out. D. Eat your food slowly, tasting every bite. E. Listen to your body. F. It allows you to follow others’ healthy eating habits. G. Eat breakfast, and eat smaller meals throughout the day.
It has become a daily routine(常规) for the students on bus No.7 in Arlington, Washington to wave to the “grandma in window”. Every day for the past five years, you could find the old lady Louise Edlen sitting at her dining room table having breakfast as the kids were passing by. But one day in early October this year she was not found sitting in her usual place. The kids didn’t see their old friend for a few days. They got worried. Finally, they learned that she had suffered a stroke(中风). “It was kind of heartbreaking to us because she was always there in the past five years,” seventh-grader Axtin Bandewerfhorst said. But she was upset and was obviously still thinking about the 20 boys and girls who passed by her home every day. The day after the bus driver Carol Mitzelfeld brought a bouquet of flowers from the students to Edlen, the kids looked out of the window to find a sign reading “Thank you”. “That really made me happy,” 10th-grader Cheyanne Holt said. “It shows how much we mean to her.” So to welcome Edlen home from the hospital, they made her a sign of their own: a photo of the kids waving from inside the bus. “Carol told us that a lot of times she even does not remember her daughter’s name, but she always remembers to wave to the kids on the bus,” Bandewerfhorst said. “That made me feel really special.” Louise’s husband, Dave Elden, said, “The students’ daily move gives her something to look forward to every day.” Elden has returned home, and is back to waving to the students every day. 1.When does the No. 7 bus pass Louise’s house? A.In the morning. B.At noon. C.In the evening. D.At night. 2.Where was the sign reading “Thank You” placed ? A.In front of the hospital. B.On the school bus. C.At the gate of the kids’ school. D.In front of the dining room window. 3.Louise felt upset in hospital because ___________. A.she forgot her daughter’s name B.the kids didn’t visit her C.she couldn’t see those kids as usual D.her illness made her suffer quite a lot
I order most of my foods and other things online and the store delivers them for a very small fee. The fee is much less than what I used to spend traveling to a store and home and trying to get everything I bought up to my apartment. Most importantly, the goods are cheaper. For the past couple of months, my receipt(收据) has included another receipt. That receipt can give some money off the price of gas at a local gas station. That is to say, with the receipt, you can pay less when you fill your car up with gas. Through this past weekend, I have collected 12 of these receipts. Each receipt can help to save 6 cents or 7 cents each liter if you buy up to 75 liters. This is pretty sweet. I don’t have a car. So today I took all the receipts to my company and gave them to my co-workers. It was fun. We ended up talking about the kinds of cars they had and how much this could save them on a full-up. They even told me they could give me a ride to some place if I needed one. I felt relieved that I was able to give them all away. The deadline on them is at the end of next month and I wanted to make sure they would all be used. There are 13 happy people from this exchange – the 12 I gave receipts to, and me. 1.What does the author think of shopping online? A.It saves much money. B.It wastes too much effort. C.It will replace shopping in stores. D.It is very popular with young people. 2.What did the author receive besides the ordered goods? A.Free gas. B.One receipt. C.Two receipts.
