Every Wednesday,I go to Cantata Adult Life Services,a local retirement community,with my classmates to do community service.

Our visits last about an hour, playing board games and cards with the residents we’re there.

You can watch all the movies and TV shows you want about“life back then”,but nothing with talking to the people who were actually there.Just hearing their stories has me in a way never thought possible.

Whether it was talking to 98-year-old“Hurricane Hilda”about her glory days a roller skater or chatting with Lou about the times she danced with a famous actor, I was completely impressed by every single the residents wanted to share with me.

Even the residents who don't have memories make the experience fulfilling.I remember visiting Mrs.Robinson.She couldn’t much about her past,but she told me she'd forget how kind I was just to listen to her“rambling(漫淡)”. It made the realize that it's the things that make life worth living.That’s something I won't anytime.

If there’s one thing I’ve realized in my three years of visiting Cantata,it's that -just being there-means more than anything to many of the residents.And despite how our lives are, there’s always time to make them happy.

For me,it feels great to be a of happiness,a smile on a bad day or a(n) for old memories.And at the end of the day,that’s all that .

It’s easy to feel like you don’t have much in common with the -especially,when you’re a(n) .But that's not true at a11.

I hate to make much comment here,but age really is just a(n) .As young adults,it's important for us to realize this sooner later.We can learn a lot from the elderly, and they can often from teenagers,too.

Living a healthy lifestyle lies in forming the right eating habits. Here are some of the good habits you can develop when it comes to healthy eating.

Drink plenty of water. You must drink at least 8 glasses of water a day. You may need even more water if you are in a hot environment or if you are exercising.

Eat breakfast. Breakfast is the most important meal of the day. A recent study has shown that those who eat breakfast will consume an average of 100 calories less during the day than their colleagues who skipped breakfast. They will also be able to concentrate better.

Don’t skip lunch. If you do so, your blood sugar level will drop and your metabolism (新陈代谢) will slow down. When you get home you are starving and eat everything you can find.

We all need to snack from time to time, but please choose your snacks carefully. In fact, it’s a good idea to eat two healthy snacks besides your three main meals. Choose healthy snacks like fruits and vegetables, low fat yogurt, cottage cheese with apple sauce, and so on.

Eat your fruit and vegetables. We should eat at least 5 servings of fruits and vegetables a day. Take a piece of fruit for a snack, add some banana and raisins to your favourite breakfast cereal, have a salad with lunch, and eat at least one vegetable at dinner each night.

Do not eat your dinner too late. Try to eat dinner at least 3 hours before you go to bed. This will give your body a chance to digest most of the food before you rest for the next 8 hours. Plan dinner for the week ahead of time and make sure you have everything you need in the house so other family members can get a head start on dinner if you have a late meeting at the office.

1.How many good eating habits are mentioned in the passage?

A. 8. B. 7. C. 6. D. 5.

2.The underlined word “raisin” most probably means “_____”.

A. a peach leaf B. a dried grape

C. a piece of cheese D. a peanut

3.Who is this passage intended for?

A. Students. B. Housewives.

C. Office workers. D. Cooks.

4.You may most probably find this article _____.

A. in a textbook B. in a science fiction book

C. in an advertisement D. in a website

If practicing an attitude of gratitude (感激) during the storms of life is too much for you right now, that’s OK. When things are tough, most people have a hard time being thankful. They’re so caught up in what’s wrong in the present moment that they simply can’t see some things are still right.

If that’s true for you, then accept it. You’re going through a particularly difficult or unhappy period of time, and you don’t like it one bit. Very normal, very human. But remember this: there is always something to be grateful for. It may be only a small comfort right now, but it is a start. Make a list of some of the terrible things that didn’t happen. For example:

You’re in debt ... but you’re not homeless.

You lost your job ... but you didn’t lose your health.

You broke your leg … but you didn’t break your neck.

Your mother has Alzheimer’s disease ... but your father doesn’t.

No matter how bad things are, they could always be worse. Start finding gratitude for what might have happened, but didn’t. It does help a lot. Of course, you may not be thankful for everything — but you can always be thankful for something.

1.How many “terrible things that didn’t happen” are listed in this passage?

A. Two. B. Three. C. Four. D. Five.

2.The writer thinks it ______ for people to feel unhappy in time of difficulty.

A. necessary B. normal

C. great D. helpful

3.What is the purpose of this passage?

A. To discuss ways to make a list of terrible things.

B. To explain what is gratitude towards the storms of life.

C. To persuade people to be thankful for what didn’t happen.

D. To show people different ways to consider their tough situations.

4. How is the passage organized?

A. Explanation—Comparison—Topic

B. Argument—Opinion—Discussion

C. Comparison—Argument—Explanation

D. Introduction—Discussion—Conclusion

The World's Largest Insect

This giant insect can be used as a toy.

A child ties one end of a string to a stick and the other end around the "neck" of an insect. Holding the stick, the child lets the insect go. With a loud whirring sound, the insect takes off, pulling the string in a large curve over the child's head. The child laughs as the stick jumps around. The child is African, and the toy is the African Goliath beetle, the largest insect in the world.

The Goliath is a true insect because it has six legs and a body that is divided into three parts. Like all beetles, it has two pairs of wings. The front pair are thick and stiff and protect the back pair, which are soft. It is these soft back wings that make the beetle fly forward. They also cause the loud whirring sound the beetle makes when it flies. To steer, the beetle twists and turns its legs the same way you steer a bike by turning its front wheel.

African children often use the Goliath beetle as a toy. Although it is over 15 centimeters long, it is quite harmless.

1.The African Goliath beetle is _______.

A. the world's largest insect

B. a toy used in many parts of the world

C. the only insect found in Africa

D. the world's smallest insect

2.What made the whirring sound that the child heard?

A. The curved string.

B. The beetle's soft wings.

C. The beetle's six legs.

D. The beetle's body.

3.We know the Goliath beetle is a true insect because it _______.

A. makes a whirring sound when it flies

B. has both soft and hard wings

C. has six legs and a body with three parts

D. can fly

4.When flying, the Goliath steers by_______.

A. turning its soft back wings

B. twisting and turning its hard front wings

C. twisting and turning its legs

D. twisting and turning its whole body

Why is pink or purple a color for girls and blue or brown for boys?

The answer depends largely on cultural values as well as personal experiences. To the Egyptians, green was a color that represented the hope and joy of spring. While for Muslims, it means heaven. Red is a symbol of good luck in many cultures. In China, children are given money in a red envelope to bring good fortune in the New Year. For many nations, blue is a symbol of protection and religious beliefs. Greek people often wear a blue necklace hoping to protect themselves against evils(灾祸).

People’s choice of colors is also influenced by their bodies’ reactions(反应) toward them. Green is said to be the most restful color. It has the ability to reduce pain and relax people both mentally and physically. People who work in green environment have been found to have fewer stomach aches.

Red can cause a person’s blood pressure to rise and increase people’s appetites(食欲). Many decorators will include different shades of red in the restaurant. Similarly, many commercial websites will have a red “Buy Now” button because red is a color that easily catches a person’s eye.

Blue is another calming color. Unlike red, blue can cause people to lose appetite. So if you want to eat less, some suggest that eating from blue plates can help.

The next time you are deciding on what to wear or what color to decorate your room, think about the color carefully.

1.Muslims regard green as a symbol of heaven mainly because of their _______.

A. cultural values

B. commercial purposes
