The _______ started at six o’clock. We had to stand outside the doors. Then, when _______ came to go to the bathroom or have a cigarette (香烟), we were told to go and sit in their seats.

Recently,my students couldn't get on well with each other,so I decided to have them play a game. I told each student to bring a plastic bag with a few tomatoes in it to school. Each student would "name" their tomatoes after the people they did not like. Therefore,the number of tomatoes would be different depending on how many people each student disliked.
The next day,all of the students brought their tomatoes to school. Some of them had just one or two tomatoes,while others had as many as five or six. I then told the students that they would have to carry their tomatoes with them wherever they went for one week.
Several days went by. Some of the students started to complain,as their tomatoes started to rot （腐烂） and smell bad. The students who carried more tomatoes also complained about how heavy their bags were.
One week later,the game was over. I asked,"How did you feel about carrying your tomatoes for a week?"
The students complained once again. I simply smiled and said,"This is what it's like to carry hate in your heart. You have to carry "it" with you wherever you go. If you can't stand carrying rotten tomatoes for one week,can you imagine having hate in your heart for a whole lifetime?"
It can be exhausting to carry hate in your heart for a whole lifetime. Forgive others and move on with your life.
1.The number of tomatoes the students were asked to carry depended on __________.

3.Why did the students start to complain after several days?

B.Because they hated the tomatoes.

A famous teacher was speaking to the students at our school. He began his lesson by holding up a ￥100 bill. Then he said to the three hundred students, “Who would like this ￥100 bill?” The students began to put up their hands at once.
Then he said, “I am going to give this ￥100 to one of you, but first, let me do this.” He then made the bill into a ball. Then he said, “Who wants it now?” The hands went back into the air.
“Well,” he said, “What if I do this?” and he dropped it on the floor and stepped on it. He picked up the dirty, crumpled bill and said, “Who still wants it?” Hands went back into the air.

请阅读下面图文内容, 按要求完成所给任务, 并将答案写在答题卷相应的位置上。
Paper or plastic?
After paper, plastic seems to be the most popular material for making banknotes. Compared with paper money, plastic banknotes are stronger and last for a longer time, so people can keep using them. But they are much more expensive to make.
The fifth edition of the Renminbi (RMB) came out on Aug. 30, 2019. These bills will have brighter colors and new security features, which will make printing fake（假的）money even harder. We've been using banknotes for around 1, 000 years. Back in the Northern Song Dynasty, Chinese people made the world's earliest paper money to replace metal coins（金属硬币）. These banknotes were called jiaozi.
Obviously, paper money is cheaper to make and easier to carry. These advantages made it more popular than other forms of money. But now, in the digital（数码的）age, paper money seems to be disappearing for the same reason-what's more convenient than not having to carry any money at all?
My life in Beijing is quite different from that in India. 在中国, 我出去的时候很少带钱。I can pay for almost everything by Alipay. It's amazing. However, if you don't take wallet with you, you'll get into trouble.
-Sam from India
China seems to be heading toward becoming a cashless society. From supermarkets to street stalls（小摊）, people pay by using the WeChat Wallet and Alipay apps on their mobile phones. Sweden is even closer to a future without paper money. Many Swedish banks no longer even have cash on hand.
But there are worries about creating cashless societies. Some say, "It's unfair to the poor and people without too much education.”It's not easy for them to open bank accounts（账户）or deal with mobile phones. And if all of your money is digital, you may lose your money if your accounts are hacked（黑客攻击）.
Although paper money is in a losing war with electronic payment in some countries, it's still a big thing in most parts of the world. It may take a little longer than you think to see it go away.
1.When did Chinese people make the world's earliest paper money?
2.Why is plastic the most popular material for making banknotes? (one reason is OK)
3.What's the advantage of paper money?
4.Please translate the underlined sentence into English.
5.Please translate the underlined sentence into Chinese.
6.Do you think paper money is going away? Why or Why not?

Thang-ga(唐卡）is a special kind of painting .It was found only in Tibet,China. It started from the Tang Dynasty(唐朝). Thang-ga paintings show Tibetan people’s lives. In recent years, Tang-ga paintings have caught the public’s attention .At the same time,the Chinese government has also tried hard to protect the art.
The color of Tang-ga paintings looks wonderful and special. Because of the special environment of Tibet and the excellent skills of artists, the paints(颜料) used in Thang-ga are different from other paints. They were made from minerals like gold and silver, as well as some plants. The paints were made by hand and the beautiful colors could last(持续)for hundreds of years.
However, with the development of technology, people now use cheaper and more easily-made chemicals to make Thang-ga paints. The traditional paints used in Thang-ga paintings took a lot of work and they were made in many secret ways. Later people stopped making the paints and forgot about them. So the skills needed to make them were almost lost. The traditional Thang-ga paintings are difficult to find now.
根据短文内容，判断句子正(T)误(F)。
1.Tang-ga is a special and unusual kind of art.
2.Tang-ga was found only in Tibet in the Tang dynasty.
3.The special environment of Tibet and the excellent skills of artists make Tang-ga paints different from other paints.
4.The color of Tang-ga paintings can last for hundreds of years with modern technology.
5.The skills of artists have been already lost, so it is difficult to find the traditional Tang-ga paintings.
