People have used onions to add flavor (味道) to their foods for thousands of years. Besides onions’ great taste, they are very good for you. They have special chemicals (化学物质) that improve your ability to fight off sickness and you have fewer chances of getting a disease. No matter how good onions are for you, it is difficult to cut an onion without your eyes filling with tears! When you cut into an onion, irritating (刺激性的) chemicals inside the onion will get into the air. They touch your whole eyes and cause pain. Your eyes make tears to wash away the chemicals and protect your eyes. Luckily, cooks and scientists have discovered some ways to keep you from crying when you cut up onions: ● Cut the onion under running water. The water will wash away the chemicals before they can reach your eyes. ● Use a fan to blow air over the onion as you cut it. The air will blow the chemicals away from your eyes. ● Put the onion in a fridge for an hour before cutting. This helps make the chemicals in the onion move slowly, so they may not ever reach your eyes. If you try out these good ideas and still cry while cutting onions, don’t worry. Scientists think if you cut more onions, your body will become more resilient to the onion’s chemicals. So the tears will not last long. If you think about how healthy onions are, you might even call those tears “happy tears”. ( )4. Why do your eyes make tears when you cut onions? A. To improve physical condition. B. To prevent common diseases. C. To wash away irritating chemicals. D. To cause terrible pain. ( )5. What can you do to stop crying according to the text? ① Cut the onion under running water. ② Use a fan to blow air over the onion while cutting. ③ Cover the onion with a piece of cloth as you cut it. ④ Put the onion in a fridge for an hour before cutting. A. ①②③ B. ①②④ C. ①③④ D. ②③④ ( )6. What does the underlined word “resilient” in the last paragraph mean in Chinese? A. 疲惫的 B. 敏感的 C. 适应的 D. 虚弱的 ( )7. In which section of a magazine can you probably read the text? A. Life and health. B. Language and culture. C. Business world. D. National news. C Showing respect for seniors Dads have Father’s Day. Moms have Mother’s Day. Kids have Children’s Day. But, do our grandparents have a special holiday? Yes, they do! The Double Ninth Festival is a special day for elderly people in China. The festival is on the ninth day of the ninth month of the lunar calendar. As the Chinese word for nine has the same sound as the word for long, people take the Double Ninth Festival to show their wishes of long life for elderly people. There are many traditions for this festival. On that day, families get together and climb mountains for luck and in the hope that elderly people will live much longer. They also drink chrysanthemum wine (菊花酒) and wear a plant called zhuyu to celebrate it. Both chrysanthemum and zhuyu are regarded as clean plants that can clean houses and cure (治疗) diseases. Respecting elderly people is shown not only on this special day but also in daily life. For example, when an older person enters a room, everyone stands up. When there are several guests at the table, the host usually introduces them from the oldest to the youngest. When a younger person is presenting something to an older person, two hands are used. On a crowded subway or bus, younger people always offer their seats to elderly people. It is a traditional virtue (美德) in China to respect elderly people. That’s because the Chinese know that elderly people have knowledge and experience that young people can learn from. So, Chinese people are proud of being old. Besides, to respect the elderly people is to respect yourself tomorrow. ( )8. Which of the following may NOT be a tradition for the Double Ninth Festival? A. Cleaning houses. B. Wearing the plant zhuyu. C. Drinking chrysanthemum wine. D. Families climbing mountains together. ( )9. What is Paragraph 4 about? A. Why we should respect elderly people. B. Traditional ways of celebrating the festival. C. What young people usually do on this festival. D. Examples of respecting elderly people in daily life. ( )10. Which is NOT the correct way to respect elderly people? A. We should offer seats to the old while taking a bus. B. We should sit straight when the old come into a room. C. We should use double hands to present things to the old. D. We should introduce the oldest person first while eating at the table. ( )11. Why are Chinese people proud of being old? A. It means they don’t have to work for others. B. It means they have more virtues than others. C. It means they have knowledge and experience. D. It means what they did in the past was meaningful. D Warming temperatures and shorter winters might sound like the end of snow days. However, rising temperatures may actually cause snowstorms to dump more snow, says David Robinson. He is a professor at a university in New Jersey. He studies climate (气候) change. Temperature change is one of the greatest in Earth’s climate change over a long period of time. It can happen naturally or because of human activities, such as burning gas and coal. Burning these fuels produces carbon dioxide (二氧化碳) and other pollutants into the atmosphere, which hold heat in the atmosphere, leading to warmer global temperatures over time. But how could warmer temperatures lead to more snow? To get snow, you need moisture (水汽) and freezing temperatures (0℃ or less), says Robinson. Without moisture in the air, there is no precipitation (rain or snow). Robinson says there are signs that snowstorms are becoming stronger. This is because of this connection between moisture and precipitation. “The warmer the air becomes, the more moisture it holds. So, if it’s warming and still cold enough to snow, you can get more snow,” Robinson says. Of the 10 biggest snowfalls in D. C. region, five happened in the past 25 years, according to the NWS. During that same time period, average winter temperatures in D. C. increased. In 1996, the average winter temperature was 1.8℃. In 2020, it was 6℃. Weather experts suggest that rising temperatures may make winter shorter and less cold. But for now, the snow is still falling. One day, winter might not have any days below the freezing temperature. Once temperatures stay above freezing, snowstorms become rain. Until then, we might continue to see strong storms. According to Robinson, that time could come sooner than we think. He says, “When we look back, years from now, we may see that this was the breaking point.” ( )12. What is paragraph 2 mainly about? A. How Earth’s climate changes. B. What causes rising temperatures. C. What produces carbon dioxide. D. How pollution influences climate. ( )13. What is the purpose of paragraph 5? A. To introduce D. C. B. To report the biggest 10 snowstorms. C.To support Robinson’s ideas. D. To show the increase of temperatures. ( )14. What does Robinson think of the future warming temperatures? A. Impossible. B. Serious. C. Meaningless. D. Amazing. ( )15. Where is the text probably taken from? A. A science magazine. B. A story book. C. A science fiction. D. A travel guide. 第二节 阅读填空（本题共5小题，每小题2分，计10分） 阅读下面短文,根据短文内容,从下面方框中的A-F选项中,选择适当的选项补全短文。 Maybe you want to exercise more or start going to bed earlier in the coming year. ____16____ ·Make a detailed（详细的）plan.
