February 14th is Valentine’s Day! In China, it is only a day for young boyfriends and girlfriends. But my teacher and friends in America told me that Valentine’s Day is a public day.
This was my first Valentine’s Day in America. I didn’t understand the customs(风俗) clearly. Maybe I didn’t need to send any gifts. I watched others to see what they did, so next time I can understand.
On that day, when we began the reading class, Mr. Peters gave every student some chocolates and said, “Happy Valentine’s Day!” I was very happy the teacher gave his students gifts and blessings. I never saw that in China. Maybe American teachers are very different. I didn’t buy a gift for the teacher, so I owed(欠) a gift to the teacher. Anyway, I want to say, ”Thank you, Mr. Peters, and I’m sorry.”
When we had a break, one of my classmates gave me a Pokemon card. It was very funny and I felt thankful, but I thought I owed a gift again.
When we were coming to our grammar class, suddenly I heard someone calling me. ”Shelly!” I stopped. Another classmate who had only been in our class one day gave me some chocolates. She said, “These are for you and your friends. Have a good day!” I was looking at her leaving and thinking that we were in the same class only one day, but now we are friends. That’s very great, but I owed a gift again.
When I came home, my Chinese friend sent some roses and chocolates. I was surprised and happy because I had never received roses in my past life, but I hoped it was the last gift. I didn’t want to owe more gifts.
1.Before the writer left China, she thought Valentine’s Day _______.
A. was a day for the young

A. the students gave gifts to the teachers

Smoking is harmful. But as soon as you quit the habit, everything will be OK, right?
Wrong.
New research has found that even if you give up smoking, the damage it has done to your genes (基因) will stay there for a much longer time.
In the research, a team of US scientists studied the blood of 16,000 people. Among them, some were smokers, some used to smoke, and the rest were non-smokers. Scientists compared their genes and found that more than 7,000 genes of smokers had changed--a number that is one-third of known human genes.
According to NBC News, both heart disease and cancer are caused by genetic changes. Some people may have had the changes when they were born, but most people get them in their day-to-day lives while doing things like smoking.
When you stop smoking, a lot of these genes will return to normal within five years.
This means your body is trying to heal (治愈) itself of the harmful effects of smoking. But the changes in some of the genes stay for longer. They can stay for as long as 30 years, It’s almost like leaving a footprint on wet cement (水泥) --it will always be there, even when you’ve walked away and when the cement becomes dry.
Although the study results may make people unhappy, there is a bright side: the findings could help scientists invent medicine to treat genetic damage caused by smoking or find ways to tell which people have heart disease or cancer risks.
1.The function of Paragraph 1 is to_________ .
A. give an example B. introduce the topic of the passage
C. make an argument D. show the main idea of the passage
2.Most genetic changes happen because of___________ .
A. people’s condition at birth B. environmental pollution
C. people’s bad living habit D. heart disease and cancer
3.The underlined word “it” in Paragraph 6 refers to__________ .
A. the footprint B. the cement
C. the harmful effect D. the genetic change
4.Which of the following statements is true?
A. The findings are the fruit of more than three years’ research.
B. The findings help to find cures for genetic damage caused by smoking.
C. The findings offer evidence that a damaged gene can heal itself.
D. The findings have prevented more people from starting smoking

Happiness is very importance in my daily life. This is why it makes me feel cheerful, and full joy.
If you felt happy, you will make others feel good. When I don’t feel cheerful, I try to remember good moments to making me feel better. When I miss some friends or family member I also try to remember those happy moments we were spent together. In my opinion, the best way to help people be happy in life are to make them laugh every time we are feeling down. Also by give them love you can make them feel sure about themselves.

There are two types of people in this world: those who regularly wash their office coffee cup. And those who only take it off their desk to cover up the coffee mark at the bottom with a fresh pour, driving away their shame with the reasoning that the heat must kill the bacteria or spine thing.
Depending on which type of person you are, this will be either mildly annoying or more-than-mildly exciting. As Heidi Mitchell wrote in a recent Wall Street Journal column, it’s fine to never wash your cup, as long as you’re not sharing it with anybody else.
There are two warnings to that statement, infectious-disease expert Jeffrey Strake, a professor at Baylor College of Medicine, told Mitchell; One, it only applies if you’re not sharing the cup with anybody else. And two , if you leave cream or sugar in your cup over the weekend, that can certainly cause mold(霉) to grow – in which case, wash it out.
Otherwise, though, there’s not really much to worry about. “If I went and cultured the average unwashed coffee cup, of course I would find bacteria.” Starke said. “But remember the vast majority came from the person who used the cup.” Even if you drink from it while sick, it’s pretty hard to re-infect yourself with the same cup; most viruses don’t live long outside the body, which means that just letting your cup live in its own dirt may be a safer bet than the alternative; cleaning it with the disgusting sponge(海绵) in the office kitchen “The sponge in the break room probably has the highest bacteria count of anything in the office.” Starke said if the idea of not washing horrifies you , just stick the sponge in the microwave before using. Otherwise, though, reel free to continue your lazy ways without guilt.
1.What does the passage intend to tell us?
A. It is harmful to drink coffee with sugar.
B. It’s okay not to wash your coffee cup regularly.
C. The hot water contributes to the bacteria growing.
D. Drinking from unwashed coffee cups causes diseases easily.
2.What do we know from Stark’s words?
A. The coffee cup in the office must be put in the microwave to clean.
B. It’s easy to get infected if you often use the same unwashed cup.
C. The coffee cup shouldn’t be shared in the office.
D. It’s good way to grow bacteria in an unwashed cup.
3.What does the underlined part “your lazy ways” refer to ?
A. Leaving your coffee cup unwashed. B. Sticking the sponge in the microwave
C. Using Paper cups only in the office D. Cleaning your coffee cup with sponge.
4.Where does the passage probably come from?
A. A travel brochure. B. A science magazine.
C. An official statement. D. An entertainment program.
