Lulu, an international student (留学生) at Tsinghua University, first came to Beijing in 2017. She quickly fell in love with the city and found her hobby—Beijing Opera.
Lulu first saw Beijing Opera at an opera museum. “I found it really noisy at the beginning,” she laughed. “The strange music and colorful clothes confused me.” But as the show went on, something began to change. She began to notice the actors’ body movements and their special facial make-up. “The make-up wasn’t beautiful, but it seemed (似乎) to tell secret stories. It really made me want to learn more about this art form.”
With great interest, she joined the Beijing Opera club. It made her understand that Beijing Opera is much more than just looks. “There is a really, really huge cultural and historical background behind Beijing Opera.”
The club meets for practices on Wednesdays and Fridays. Most of the members are international students. The teachers usually share stories behind the opera to help them understand, then teach them the basic movements and singing skills. The biggest problem for Lulu was learning the Asian way of singing. “At first, my throat (喉咙) was in a lot of pain because I was using my voice in the wrong way,” she said. But with the help of the teachers, she has improved a lot.
Last spring, she performed a famous opera—The Romance of the Western Chamber (西厢记) and received cheers from both Chinese and foreign classmates. When asked about her future plans, Lulu’s eyes lit up, “I really love Beijing Opera. I hope to share my love of Beijing Opera with more people outside China.”

C. Students can learn basic movement first. D. There are different operas for them to choose.

A. Because she didn’t get enough practice.
B. Because she wasn’t good at singing at all.

Young people really enjoy drinking all sorts of drinks, like cola, coffee, juice, and milk tea. But they know these drinks aren’t good for their health. Have you thought about what could change if water was the only drink you had?
Chris Bailey, a popular blogger (博主), tried this out. He recently wrote about his experience on his blog, explaining the benefits of drinking only water. Here are some of the key advantages he said.
To begin with, you lose weight faster. Yeah, you do! You don’t have to exercise but just keep away from drinks for 9 days. It is the same as running for 8 kilometers a day! So write down your resolution (决心) on a piece of paper and put it on the wall. And you will see the result soon.
Sometimes when you have to stay up for a test, a cup of tea or coffee is usually put at the side of your desk. But do you know 75 to 85 percent of your brain (大脑) is water? Nothing else! Just by drinking water, your brain can work efficiently (有效率地). You may remember things quickly and well.
What’s more, water washes out something bad in your body. So drinking enough water can stop you from getting old quickly. If you want to look young and nice as long as possible, drink a glass of water right now! Keep on doing it for longer, and you will be surprised to find your skin (皮肤) soft and clean.
Lastly, you save money! How much money do you spend on coffee and juice every week? The price of water is much lower than that of other drinks. Drink 5 glasses of water every day, or spend money visiting doctors. Think about it!
So, what are you waiting for? You’ve seen how just drinking water can lead to weight loss, better concentration, and healthier skin. Remember, little changes can make a big difference in how you feel. Start by replacing one sugary drink with water each day. Take that first step now, and your body will thank you for it!

Lulu, an international student (留学生) at Tsinghua University, first came to Beijing in 2017. She quickly fell in love with the city and found her hobby—Beijing Opera.
Lulu first saw Beijing Opera at an opera museum. “I found it really noisy at the beginning,” she laughed. “The strange music and colorful clothes confused me.” But as the show went on, something began to change. She began to notice the actors’ body movements and their special facial make-up. “The make-up wasn’t beautiful, but it seemed (似乎) to tell secret stories. It really made me want to learn more about this art form.”
With great interest, she joined the Beijing Opera club. It made her understand that Beijing Opera is much more than just looks. “There is a really, really huge cultural and historical background behind Beijing Opera.”
The club meets for practices on Wednesdays and Fridays. Most of the members are international students. The teachers usually share stories behind the opera to help them understand, then teach them the basic movements and singing skills. The biggest problem for Lulu was learning the Asian way of singing. “At first, my throat (喉咙) was in a lot of pain because I was using my voice in the wrong way,” she said. But with the help of the teachers, she has improved a lot.
Last spring, she performed a famous opera—The Romance of the Western Chamber (西厢记) and received cheers from both Chinese and foreign classmates. When asked about her future plans, Lulu’s eyes lit up, “I really love Beijing Opera. I hope to share my love of Beijing Opera with more people outside China.”
6. What makes Lulu be interested in Beijing Opera?
A. Strange music and colorful clothes. B. Movements and facial make-up.
C. Cultural and historical background. D. Stories behind the Beijing opera.
7. What can we learn about the Beijing Opera club in Tsinghua University?

C. Students can learn basic movement first. D. There are different operas for them to choose.
8. Why did Lulu have trouble with the way of singing at first?
A. Because she didn’t get enough practice.
B. Because she wasn’t good at singing at all.
C. Because she couldn’t pronounce Chinese well.
D. Because she didn’t use her voice in the right way.
9. What’s the best title of the passage?
A. A foreigner’s love for Beijing Opera. B. A foreigner’s first performance in Beijing

Young people really enjoy drinking all sorts of drinks, like cola, coffee, juice, and milk tea. But they know these drinks aren’t good for their health. Have you thought about what could change if water was the only drink you had?
Chris Bailey, a popular blogger (博主), tried this out. He recently wrote about his experience on his blog, explaining the benefits of drinking only water. Here are some of the key advantages he said.
To begin with, you lose weight faster. Yeah, you do! You don’t have to exercise but just keep away from drinks for 9 days. It is the same as running for 8 kilometers a day! So write down your resolution (决心) on a piece of paper and put it on the wall. And you will see the result soon.
Sometimes when you have to stay up for a test a cup of tea or coffee is usually put at the side of your desk. But do you know 75 to 85 percent of your brain (大脑) is water? Nothing else! Just by drinking water, your brain can work efficiently (有效率地). You may remember things quickly and well.
What’s more, water washes out something bad in your body. So drinking enough water can stop you from getting old quickly. If you want to look young and nice as long as possible, drink a glass of water right now! Keep on doing it for longer, and you will be surprised to find your skin (皮肤) soft and clean.
Lastly, you save money! How much money do you spend on coffee and juice every week? The price of water is much lower than that of other drinks. Drink 5 glasses of water every day, or spend money visiting doctors. Think about it!
So, what are you waiting for? You’ve seen how just drinking water can lead to weight loss, better concentration, and healthier skin. Remember, little changes can make a big difference in how you feel. Start by replacing one sugary drink with water each day. Take that first step now, and your body will thank you for it!
11. Why is Chris Bailey mentioned (被提及)?
A. To talk about why he made his try. B. To show how popular he is online.
C. To talk about his health problems. D. To take his findings as an example.
12. Which one may be written on the paper in Paragraph 3?
A. Keep away from drinks! B. Take more exercise!
C. Use the brain more! D. Save more money!
13. What does the underlined word “it” refer to?
A. Getting old. B. Drinking water. C. Washing your body. D. Touching your skin.
14. What’s the structure (结构) of the text?
A. B. C. D.
15. What’s the main idea of the passage?
A. The health advantages of only drinking water.
B. The importance of exercise for people’s health.
C. The popular drinks among young people today.
D. The ways of choosing the cheapest drinks.

What makes you happy? Beautiful music, good friends or interesting games? If you are a food lover, nice food will make you feel happy. However, delicious food can’t always be easy to get. When you feel bad and there’s no food available (可获得的), what will you do? Some American researchers say that you can try to draw some nice food. According to their new research, drawing pictures of the food you like can affect (影响) your mood.
The researchers invited 61 students from St. Bonaventure University in New York to take part in the research. The 22 men and 39 women were all in their early twenties. The researchers first divided the students into four groups and gave them red, green, brown and black pencils to draw pictures of different food including cupcakes, pizza, strawberries and pepper.
The researchers used a research tool (工具) to assess mood changes. They made the students write down their mood, hunger and level of excitement before and after the five-minute drawing exercise, which was done when they were hungry.
The result showed drawing pizza improved the students’ mood by 28%, while drawing cupcakes and strawberries improved their spirits by 27% and 22%. However, mood in the pepper group improved by only 1%.
The result also showed there was such a big difference in hunger and excitement levels between the groups. Will drawing pictures of food help stop people from overeating one day? The researchers said the effect (影响) on mood was not known now and more researches were needed.
16. What can make a food lover happy if there is no food?
A. Listening to beautiful music. B. Talking with good friends.
C. Cooking delicious food. D. Drawing some nice food.
17. What’s the underlined word “assess” mean?
A. check out B. come out C. look out D. run out
18. Which one is TRUE according to (根据) the research?
A. The students in the research are from different schools.
B. Students did the research when they were hungry.
C. Students were divided into four groups according to age.
D. Students needed to draw different food according to hobbies.
19. Which food can improve the students’ mood least?
A. B. C. D.
20. What does the last paragraph tell us?
A. Drawing food they like can stop overeating. B. More research is needed on mood effects.
C. Different groups leads to different results. D. Hunger and excitement levels were unchanged.
