Most of us lead a busy life. 1. We think, “If I reached my goal, then I would be happy”, or “If I could get a better job, then I would enjoy life.” But why not enjoy life right now?
Firstly, take time to notice and appreciate the beauty in your own surroundings. 2. “There is a great big world of wonder and beauty around us!” And as Brodersen explains，“Look for the beauty of the sunrise and of a friend’s smile that brightens your day. Open your eyes to see the beauty you might not normally see. Doing so helps to cheer you up.”
Secondly, taking time to experience some simple pleasures also can bring joy to your heart and ease your stress. Take me for example. 3. One universal simple pleasure is finding things that make you laugh. Make time to laugh every day.
Thirdly, don’t take your family and friends for granted. Rich, rewarding relationships add greatly to the enjoyment of life. When you think of someone, why not call, e-mail or write them? 4. As Wayne Lawton explains, “Invest time in relationships. Remove the attitude, what’s in it for me? Happiness is found in putting other’s interests, desires and concerns ahead of our own whenever possible. Selfishness is a dead-end street.” 5. .
A. Be aware of beauty in nature.
B. In my spare time, I enjoy collecting stamps and reading novels.
C. Driven by the “urgent”, we forget to enjoy life.
D. A short e-mail or phone call can make a world of difference to someone.
E. You don’t need to travel far to find beauty.
F. I delight in simple things like my favorite tea drink, a bubble bath or family photos.
G. So please treasure relationship.

I am a vegetarian（素食主义者）. Many people are quick to think of vegetarianism as strange behavior. I treasure our Earth, and since we only have one, we should protect it and the wildlife that lives on it. But that’s only one of the reasons to be a vegetarian.
Vegetarians may live longer, healthier lives. There is a connection between red meat consumption and various diseases. From an economic standpoint, it requires less land, money and energy to produce foods for a vegetarian diet. While there are many benefits to being a vegetarian, only a handful of those who attempt to adopt this lifestyle succeed.
The most important quality required to be a vegetarian is firmness since surrounded by the temptation of meat, we tend to give up vegetarianism easily. Creativity is almost as important as commitment. It’s easy to tire of eating nothing but salad. But with a little creativity and some soy products, almost any meal can become vegetarian-friendly.
Not everyone wants to be vegetarian. Accepting this is part of being a vegetarian with style. Forcing your beliefs on others is disrespectful. Stylish vegetarians should also be able to turn down a meaty dish politely without annoying their hosts.
Being a successful vegetarian has been easy for me, but it may not be so for others. A common mistake is quitting before your body has adjusted to the change. It can be difficult to keep the lifestyle in the beginning because of temptation. However, it fades over time. Another common mistake is quitting because you’ve been misinformed about the nutritional wisdom of being a vegetarian. That’s why it is vital to be educated. Countless people will tell you that it’s impossible to obtain the nutrients and protein（蛋白质）your body requires without meat, but they are incorrect. People actually need only 44-55 grams of protein a day, and that is easily found in a vegetarian diet. Many meat eaters are consuming three times that amount, which is not beneficial. It leads to diseases. Vegetables can also supply all the vitamins, minerals and nutrients your body needs. However, if you’re still not convinced, you can take a multi-vitamin.
1.According to the passage, being a vegetarian helps ______.
A. protect the wildlife
B. free people from diseases
C. rid people from strange behaviors
D. develop a better economy
2.What’s the underlined word temptation in Paragraph 3 closest in meaning to?
A. Unpleasant taste B. Extreme attraction
C. Great consumption D. Significant importance
3.Stylish vegetarians do not ______.
A. force others to be vegetarians
B. respect other people’s beliefs
C. turn down hosts gracefully
D. refuse an offer of meat
4.Which of the following is NOT true?
A. Many people give up before their bodies can adjust to the transition.
B. Many people quit because they’re poorly educated about nutrition.
C. Consuming 150 grams protein a day can be harmful.
D. Vegetarians need multi-vitamins to keep healthy.
5.Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage?
A. Reasons why the author became a vegetarian.
B. Important qualities required to be a vegetarian.
C. Advantages and disadvantages of being a vegetarian.
D. Common mistakes on the way to being a vegetarian.

A wolf left his lair(巢穴) one evening on fine spirits and an excellent appetite. As he ran, the set sun cast his shadow far out on the ground, and it looks as if the wolf were a hundred time bigger than he really was. “ See what big I am! It is sure that I can beat a tiny lion! I’ll show him who is fit to be king, he or me.” said the wolf proud. Just then a huge shadow covered him entirely, and the next moment a lion struck him down with single blow.
Do not let your imagination to make you forget realities.

You may have noticed something different when you ate at your favorite restaurant. Or perhaps you picked up on it while looking through your social media apps (社交媒体软件) . You guessed it ---we’re becoming a foodie (吃货) culture.
For some, that means photographing every dish, but others are taking it one step further. Sophia Hampton, a senior at Staples High School in US, chooses to make her own food. She has been published in Future Chefs, a cookbook of recipes (食谱) by teens.
Hampton’s best advice for those who want to be foodies is to get in the kitchen.
“Start cooking,” she said. “There are so many resources online, like recipes and articles about food. Go to your local farmers’ market and start cooking with them.
Besides blogs and online resources, there are also hands-on cooking classes for students. The Chopping Block, a Chicago cooking school, offers many different classes for teens, including courses on chocolate and French food.
By attending cooking classes, surfing online and going to restaurants, you can find endless recipes. But sometimes becoming a real foodie means being behind a camera. As our food-loving culture becomes more popular and teen-friendly, social media apps like Facebook, have become major players in food culture.
“Getting involved in foodie culture is as easy as having a camera and a social media app,” one foodie said. “I always go to streets and farmers’ markets to take beautiful pictures of food. Wherever food prices are expensive, the photos are free.”
1.What does Hampton advise those who want to be foodies to do?
A. Post their recipes online.
B. Cook food by themselves.
C. Eat at their favorite restaurant.
D. Take photos of every dish they eat.
2.Where can students find new recipes, according to the article?
① cooking classes ② online resources
③ new restaurant ④ public libraries
A.①②③ B.①③④ C.②③④ D.①②④
3.What has made foodie culture more popular, according to the article?
A. People’s growing interest in traditional culture.
B. The convenience of getting different food.
C. The use of cameras and social media.
D. The drop in food prices.

In order to help students developing their abilities in all fields, our school now has asked the teachers to make some change in the grading system.The students’ final score will be made up of 5 parts. About 30% of them will come from your test results. 20% comes from your notes, and other 20% is decided by how you do your homework. If you take the active part in classroom activities, you can get another 20% of the score. Teamwork in class are also important.
