She lives alone and works in a nearby office building. “Preparing my own meals takes too much time,” she said. “I used to spend two hours cooking but only ten minutes eating.” For a long time, she depended heavily on food deliveries (外卖). Her parents always worried about the safety of those meals. The Tongxin Cafeteria is a perfect place for Chen. It’s one of the city’s more than 1,600 community canteens (餐厅). The canteens were built to provide quick and healthy meals at fair prices for the old, so they were known as “senior canteens” at first. Now, however, these canteens are becoming popular with young people as well. Many of them share their dining experiences online. As a result, more people have started showing up at community canteens. Some young people didn’t take action. That’s not because they have doubts (猜疑) about the quality of food. Instead, they worried about taking up the old people’s places. “They don’t need to worry. We serve the old from 10:30 to 11:30 am and 4:30 to 5:30 pm,” said Li Jiajun, the manager of a local community canteen. “Except those hours, people of all ages are welcome.” Young people are also warmly welcomed by the old. “We’re happy to have them dining here,” said a 90-year-old man. “They give an ‘elderly canteen’ a feeling of youth.” 主题03 人与自然——人与动植物 Passage 1 （23-24八年级下·湖北十堰·期中）阅读短文，用英文填空或回答问题（请注意每小题的词数要求）。 Twelve, for Lisa, was a hard year.

Of course, not everyone loves dogs. Some people sneeze around them or feel nervous, and that’s okay! But if you like dogs, spending time with them can turn a boring day into a great one. Next time you see a cute dog, ask its owner if you can say hi. A fast belly rub or a game of fetch could really cheer you up! Remember, dogs are more than just pets.

It is a trap (陷阱) that my owner set.” After hearing this, the sparrows became worried and nervous. But the cow told them they still had time to get themselves free. One sparrow asked, “But how?

It began 2,000 years ago during the Han dynasty (朝代) and falls on the 15th day of the first lunar month. It means the end of the Spring Festival. Chinese people celebrate the festival in many ways. The most popular way is to watch lantern shows. The lanterns are in all sizes and shapes, from animals to plants and flowers. On the night of the festival, many lanterns are hung (悬挂) in the streets or parks. These lanterns light up the night during the festival. Guessing lantern riddles is another popular way during the Lantern Festival. Riddles are written on colorful lanterns. The answer to a riddle can be a Chinese character (汉字), a famous person’s name or a place name. If someone gets the right answer, he or she will get a gift. Eating sweet dumplings with different tastes is a must-do on that day. In the north of China, they are called yuanxiao while in the south they are named tangyuan. Shaped like a round ball, tangyuan is delicious. On the one hand, people eat tangyuan for good luck. On the other hand, the shape of tangyuan means family reunion (团圆). You can also enjoy all kinds of shows everywhere. In the daytime, Chinese people perform lion and dragon dances, perform yangge dances, beat drums and so on. What’s more, in ancient times, the Lantern Festival was also regarded as a romantic (浪漫的) day. At that time, young girls couldn’t go out very often except during certain festivals. So watching lanterns gave young people a chance to meet each other. A Chinese poet (诗人) from the Song Dynasty, Xin Qiji, wrote a poem about this, “Restlessly (不安地) I searched for her in thousands, hundreds of ways. Suddenly I turned, and there she was in the receding (渐渐远去) light.” 1．What does the Lantern Festival mean according to the passage?

Scientists have discovered something cool: spending just 2 to 20 minutes with a dog can lower stress. Petting a dog helps your body relax, almost like magic! And it’s not just good for humans—dogs enjoy the attention too. Their tails wag, and they might even lean into your hand, showing they’re having fun. Some dogs even have special jobs as “therapy dogs”. These dogs visit schools, hospitals, or nursing homes to cheer people up. They’re trained to be extra gentle and friendly. Of course, not everyone loves dogs. Some people sneeze around them or feel nervous, and that’s okay! But if you like dogs, spending time with them can turn a boring day into a great one. Next time you see a cute dog, ask its owner if you can say hi. A fast belly rub or a game of fetch could really cheer you up! Remember, dogs are more than just pets. They’re like little furry friends that bring happiness. 6．How long should you spend with a dog to reduce stress, according to the text?

Guessing lantern riddles is another popular way during the Lantern Festival. Riddles are written on colorful lanterns. The answer to a riddle can be a Chinese character (汉字), a famous person’s name or a place name. If someone gets the right answer, he or she will get a gift. Eating sweet dumplings with different tastes is a must-do on that day. In the north of China, they are called yuanxiao while in the south they are named tangyuan. Shaped like a round ball, tangyuan is delicious. On the one hand, people eat tangyuan for good luck. On the other hand, the shape of tangyuan means family reunion (团圆).

What’s more, in ancient times, the Lantern Festival was also regarded as a romantic (浪漫的) day. At that time, young girls couldn’t go out very often except during certain festivals.
