    Thanks to improvements in both health care and personal safety, most people are living healthier, longer lives. Someone who is born today can expect to live 25 years longer than someone who was born in the 19th century. It's even thought that in the future more and more people will celebrate their hundredth birthday. Here are five rules for a healthy life.
    小题1:
    We all know that we shouldn't run across the road in front of the oncoming traffic, or cycle too close to cars. But we’re not sure about how to stay safe in the countryside. When you're out walking you should always go with someone. and tell your parents where you're planning to go. Remember! Climbing may also mean falling-what goes up must come down. Safety rules and advice are there to help you, not to make life less fun.
    小题2:
    Sure, it's comfortable to sit on the couch and watch. But experts say you should walk at least 10,000 steps every day to keep fit. In the past, People's jobs required more physical effort. When farmers were working in the fields, they were keeping fit at the same time. Think about it: do you get the same amount of exercise today as they did in the past?
    小题3:
    It's important to eat plenty of the right things, above all, fruit, vegetables, and to see fast food or sweets as something very special- maybe just and then. The wrong diet means you'll put on weight, one of the fastest ways to an unhealthy life.
    小题4:
    When we were babies, we slept for much of the day- if our parents were lucky! Teenagers don't need as much sleep but it's important to get about eight hours' sleep. At weekends, you've got more time, so use it not just for your friends, but for rest, too.
    小题5:
    Yes, you knew I was going to say this! But it's so important. More teenagers damage their health through smoking and taking drugs than any other dangers. Think about the effect on your family and friends, and think about its effect on you and your health.
    A．Don't worry. Be happy!
    B．Say no ... to smoking and drugs!
    C．Be careful! It's dangerous out there!
    D．Rest up while you can!
    E. Watch your diet!
    F. Don't be a couch potato!

    [1] We all have our own ways of sharing our life experiences with others.
    [2] Photographers use cameras, artists use brushes, musicians use songs and writers use stories.
    [3] Spencer Johnson’s story Who Moved My Cheese? shows changes exist in(存在于) our life. Life changes and so we do. We must change ourselves to face the changing environment, or we will fail.
    [4] Just look at the cycle(循环) of             . Trees bud(发芽) in spring and in summer their leaves turn green. In autumn, their leaves start to fall onto the ground. When winter arrives, there are no leaves on trees. Next spring the cycle begins again. Since we know there are cycles in nature, we can prepare for them. We know it is colder in winter and hotter in summer, so we can dress properly.
    [5] Since we accept the cycles of nature, we should also accept the changes in our life.
    [6] We can prepare ourselves for changes by becoming more flexible(灵活的). We can regard the changes in our life as chances. As we keep changing ourselves, we can keep up with the changes in our life.

    Love is a two - way street
    A father sat at his desk and looked at his bills when his young son rushed in and announced: "Dad, because today is your birthday and you're 40 years old, I'm going to give you 40 kisses, one for each year!" When the boy started making good on his word (履行诺言 ) , the father shouted:  "Andrew, don’t do it now. I'm too busy! "
    The boy soon fell silent as tears fell from his big blue eyes. Feeling sorry, the father said: "You can finish later.  The boy said nothing but quietly walked away." That evening the father said:  "Come and finish the kisses now,  Andrew!" But the boy didn’t.
    Unfortunately, a few days later after the father's birthday, the boy had an accident and died.  His sad father wrote: "If only(要是...,该多好)i could tell him how sorry I am for my thoughtless words,  and how much my heart is hurting."
    Love is a two-way street.  We must warmly accept any loving act,  or others will take it as a "NO" and it can leave a scar(伤痕). If we don't receive love, our life will lose its true meaning.  Nothing is more important than accepting love from those who are near and dear to us .

    No one can change the weather. Nobody can control the weather. But if we read correctly the signs around us, we can tell what the more important changes in the weather will be. This way of telling what the weather will be like on the following day or two is called weather forecasting.
    For many centuries and in all countries, people have studied the weather and tried to make weather forecasting. Rings around the sun are a sign of coming rain. That many people feel their joints(关节) hurt is a sign of wet weather. Some birds fly high if fine weather is coming, but they fly near the ground if rainy or stormy weather is on the way. If you see a rainbow during rainy weather, this is a sign that the weather will become clear and fine. Such rainbows come in the evening. If the stars twinkle clearly at night, then fine weather will continue. If a fog appears in the morning just above a river, then the day will be warm. If the sunset is mostly red in colour, then the following day will be fine. If a rainbow appears in the morning, rainy weather will probably come.
    Most of the above sayings have been made by the people who have used their eyes and brains to make weather forecasting.
    小题1:Which of the following can be used here to replace(取代) the underlined phrase “on the way”?
    A．awayB．gone
    C．disappearingD．coming
    小题2:When you see the stars twinkle clearly at night, the weather will be_________.

    A．A rainbow appears in the morning.

    C．The stars twinkle clearly at night.
    D．Fogs appear in the morning just above a river.
    小题4:Which of the following is NOT TRUE according to the passage?
    A．Nobody can control the weather.
    B．If the sunset is red in colour, then the next day will be fine.
    C．If many people feel their joints hurt, it may be a sign of wet weather.
    D．People only use their eyes and brains to make weather forecasting.
    小题5:Which of the following sentences can suitable according to the passage?

    Tips for Living in China
    1.Dinners
    When you are invited to a dinner, you don’t have to eat everything .First, try a little of every dish by putting some on your plate or in rice bowl. You don’t have to eat it, but as a foreign guest (客人),you are supposed to be served first. If you don’t try anything, your host will be embarrassed（尴尬）---and will put it on your plate for you .
    2.Bargaining
    When you go to open-air markets or personal stores, you need to bargain with the shop assistants. Remember to build a friendly relationship(关系)first. You are creating a relationship with the businessman ,not a price war. Think of it this way :Shouting ,arguing ,and pointing are not good. Smiling ,being friendly, offering to buy more for a better price is. And don’t be afraid to ask,” Can you offer me a better price?”
    3.Chopsticks
    Don’t point with them at other people’s faces ,and by all means don’t stick them upright in your rice bowl----that is how the Chinese honor (纪念)the dead at graves. You should put them beside the plate.
