【导语】本文介绍了爱好在生活中的重要作用,列举了不同人的不同爱好,同时提醒人们要平衡爱好和其他事务,选择健康适宜的爱好。
1.句意:爱好不仅能让我们快乐,还能帮助我们成长。固定搭配help sb (to) do sth意为“帮助某人做某事”,可接动词原形或不定式。
2.句意:一些人喜欢体育运动,比如远足或者打网球。such as是介词短语,后接动名词作宾语,且空格处与后文playing tennis是并列成分,形式要保持一致,hike的动名词为hiking。
3.句意:例如,卢卡·布鲁诺喜欢开发手机应用。固定搭配enjoy doing sth意为“喜欢做某事”,make的动名词为making。
4.句意:他十岁的时候就开始学习编程,现在他的应用可以帮助人们寻找学习伙伴。空格后是完整的句子,需要引导词引导时间状语从句,表示“当……的时候”,用连词when。
5.句意:她拥有来自32个国家的一百多张明信片,并且梦想去这些地方旅行。空格前有数词thirty-two(大于1),可数名词country要用复数形式,变复数为countries。
6.句意:她拥有来自32个国家的一百多张明信片,并且梦想去这些地方旅行。dream of中of是介词,介词后接动名词作宾语,travel的动名词为travelling(美式拼写为traveling),两种都正确。
7.句意:然而,我们必须记住要平衡爱好和其他事务。remember to do sth表示“记得要做某事(还未完成)”,符合此处语境,所以用不定式。
8.句意:在电子屏幕类爱好上花费太多时间会造成眼部疲劳。句子的谓语是can cause,空格处作主语,表示抽象动作,要用动名词作主语,句首首字母大写。
9.句意:幸运的是,我们有很多户外爱好可以选择。空格处修饰整个句子,需要用副词作状语,luck的副词形式为luckily,句首首字母大写。
10.句意:它会给我们带来快乐,帮助我们成长。本句陈述客观事实,用一般现在时,主语It是第三人称单数,并列谓语helps也用了第三人称单数形式,所以bring也要变为第三人称单数brings。

4.句意:它可能让你难受几天,甚至长达一周。“a few days or as long as a week”表示时间段,修饰动作“feel sick”持续的时长,表示动作持续的时间段,需用介词for。
5.句意:有时候,很难分辨你得的是流感还是普通感冒,但流感通常会让你烧得更高、难受得多。此处为句型“it can be + adj. + to do”,it作形式主语,真正主语是不定式to do,此处表判断,tell“分辨,判断”符合语境,应用to tell。
6.句意:有时候,很难分辨你得的是流感还是普通感冒,但流感通常会让你烧得更高、难受得多。much修饰比较级,bad的比较级为worse,表示“更糟糕的”。
7.句意:流感是一种病毒,这意味着药物只能帮助缓解咳嗽、发烧等症状。此处宾语从句需名词作主语,medical为形容词,需变为名词medicine,此处表泛指“药物”,为不可数。
8.句意:对大多数孩子来说,流感会自行痊愈,但对一些孩子来说,它可能是一种严重的疾病。形容词serious后需接名词,a后接可数名词单数,ill的名词形式为illness。

10.句意:预防流感的最佳方法是经常洗手,并去看医生打流感疫苗。介词from后需接动名词作宾语,have的动名词为having。

Located between Jordan and Israel, the Dead Sea is one of the world’s most extraordinary natural wonders. Its 1 is about 430 meters below sea level, making it the lowest point on Earth’s land. The water is nearly ten times saltier than ordinary ocean water, which creates a 2 environment where almost no living things can 3 . This explains the sea’s unusual name.
Despite its harsh (恶劣的) conditions, the Dead Sea attracts millions of 4 every year. Visitors come not for swimming, but for the unique experience of floating effortlessly (轻松地) on the water’s 5 . Because of the high salt concentration (浓度), it is impossible to sink (下沉)—a phenomenon that never fails to amaze first-time visitors.
Scientists remain 6 about the sea’s mineral-rich waters, which are believed to have healing properties (治疗性质). Many people travel here to treat skin diseases, 7 it is considered one of the world’s first natural health resorts. However, swimming in the Dead Sea requires caution. Accidentally getting the water into your eyes can be quite 8 , so wearing goggles is strongly advised.
The Dead Sea is also shrinking at an alarming rate. Its water level drops about one meter each year, a problem caused by both human activity and natural factors. 9 , this remarkable place may disappear in the future if nothing is done to protect it. For now, it remains a 10 destination that satisfies both relaxation and scientific curiosity.
1.A.surface B.bottom C.shore D.depth
2.A.common B.friendly C.challenging D.perfect
3.A.survive B.appear C.develop D.grow
4.A.scientists B.travellers C.locals D.fishermen
5.A.bottom B.depth C.surface D.shore
6.A.bored B.worried C.curious D.certain
7.A.if B.unless C.though D.as
8.A.unusual B.risky C.dead D.wonderful
9.A.After all B.In addition C.As a result D.On the contrary
10.A.common B.dangerous C.ordinary D.fascinating
【答案】
1.A 2.C 3.A 4.B 5.C 6.C 7.D 8.B 9.C 10.D
【导语】本文介绍了死海的地理特征、特殊现象 (高盐度、易漂浮)、旅游价值、健康作用以及面临的环境危机。
1.句意:它的表面海拔约为负430米,是地球上陆地上的最低点。
根据下文“about 430 meters below sea level”,低于海平面430米,这是指湖面表层的海拔高度,对应选用surface“水面/湖面”。depth指水体深度 (水面到水底)、bottom指湖底、shore指岸边,三者都不能搭配海拔数值描述地表高程,尤其depth和海拔概念完全无关,因此只能选surface。
2.句意:这里的盐分比普通海水高出近十倍,造就了一个极具挑战的生存环境,几乎没有生物能在此存活。
根据前文“salt nearly ten times higher than normal seawater”,高盐环境严苛难生存,所以选challenging“有挑战性的、严苛的”。common“普通的”、friendly“友好的”、perfect“完美的”都不符合高盐难存活的语境。
3.句意:这里的盐分比普通海水高出近十倍,造就了一个极具挑战的生存环境,几乎没有生物能在此存活。
根据前文“challenging environment”,高盐环境不利于生命存续,所以选survive“存活、生存”。appear“出现”、develop“发展”、grow“生长”都不符合“几乎没有生物能存活”的句意逻辑。
4.句意:尽管生存环境恶劣,死海每年仍能吸引数百万游客前来游览观光。
根据后文“Visitors come not for swimming”,Visitors指代前来游玩的人群,所以选travellers“游客、旅行者”。scientists“科学家”、locals“当地人”、fishermen“渔民”都和游玩观光的语境不匹配。
5.句意:游客前来不是为游泳,而是想体验能轻松漂浮在水面上的独特乐趣。
根据常识“float effortlessly”,漂浮只会发生在水体表层,所以选surface“水面、表面”。bottom“水底”、depth“深度”、shore“岸边”都不符合漂浮的位置逻辑。
6.句意:科学家依旧对这片富含矿物质的水域充满好奇,人们认为这里的水有疗养功效。
根据后文“have healing properties”,特殊的水域特质会引发科研探索欲,所以选curious “好奇的”。bored“无聊的”、worried“担忧的”、certain“确定的”都与科研探究的态度不符。
7.句意:很多人专程来这里治疗皮肤病,因为它被视作全球最早的天然疗养胜地之一。
根据前后句逻辑,前半句讲前来疗养的行为,后半句说明背后原因,所以选as“因为”。if “如果”、unless“除非”、though“虽然”都衔接不了因果关系。
8.句意:但在死海游泳需格外谨慎,海水不慎入眼会存在风险,因此建议佩戴护目镜。
根据前文“requires caution”,海水入眼是危险情况,所以选risky“有风险的、危险的”。unusual“不寻常的”、dead“死寂的”、wonderful“绝佳的”都不符合警示提醒的语境。
9.句意:死海水位逐年下降、面积不断缩小,因此若不加以保护,这片独特之地未来或将消失。
根据前后句逻辑,前半句讲湖泊萎缩的现状,后半句引出后续消极结果,所以选As a result “因此”。After all“毕竟”、In addition“此外”、On the contrary“相反”都衔接不了因果推导关系。
10.句意:目前,死海仍是一个极具吸引力的旅游胜地,既能让人放松身心,又能满足人们的科学好奇心。
根据后文“offers both relaxation and scientific curiosity”,兼具休闲与科研价值的景点十分独特吸睛,所以选fascinating“迷人的、极具吸引力的”。common“普通的”、dangerous “危险的”、ordinary“平平无奇的”都不符合“兼具休闲与科研价值”这一独特优质的景区定位。
Everyone has different feelings every day. Sometimes we feel happy, and sometimes we feel sad. These feelings are a 1 part of life.
Last week, my friend Lily felt 2 because she failed her maths test. She thought she wasn’t smart enough. I told her, “Don’t worry! 3 makes mistakes. You can 4 harder next time. ” She smiled and said, “Thank you for encouraging me!”
On the other hand, my brother Tom felt 5 yesterday. He won the first prize in a singing competition (比赛). He said, “I’m so excited! All my hard work paid off.”
Sometimes, we also feel nervous when we are in a new 6 or meet new people. For example, when I first 7 the basketball team, I felt nervous. But after practicing with my teammates, I became more confident.
In fact, we should dare to face our feelings whether they are positive or 8 . Different people may have different ways of 9 their feelings. It’s a good way to talk about our feelings with family or friends. If we keep our bad feelings inside, we may feel worse. 10 our feelings helps us feel better and understand ourselves more.
1.A.normal B.useful C.hurtful D.clear
2.A.happy B.excited C.upset D.thankful
3.A.Nobody B.Whoever C.Everybody D.Somebody
4.A.study B.play C.sleep D.kick
5.A.proud B.bored C.tired D.sad

【导语】本文围绕情绪展开,介绍了不同情绪是生活的正常组成部分,以及面对情绪的正确态度与处理方法。
1.句意:这些情绪是生活中正常的一部分。
根据前文“Sometimes we feel happy, and sometimes we feel sad.”可知,生活中本就存在各类情绪,normal“正常的”符合语境。
2.句意:上周,我的朋友莉莉感到难过,因为她数学考试不及格。
根据后文“because she failed her maths test. She thought she wasn’t smart enough.”可知,考试失利会让人心情沮丧。upset“难过的、沮丧的”符合语境;happy“开心的”、excited“兴奋的”、thankful“感激的”均不属于消极的情绪。
3.句意:我告诉她:“别担心!每个人都会犯错。你下次可以更加努力学习。”
根据语境,此处是安慰莉莉,说明犯错是普遍现象。everybody“每个人”符合语境;nobody“没有人”、whoever“无论谁”、somebody“某人”均不符合安慰的逻辑。
4.句意:我告诉她:“别担心!每个人都会犯错。你下次可以更加努力学习。”
结合前文“failed her maths test”的失利背景,此处是鼓励她用功进步,study“学习”符合语境。
5.句意:另一方面,我的哥哥汤姆昨天十分自豪。
根据后文“He won the first prize in a singing competition.”可知,歌唱比赛获得第一名是值得骄傲的事,proud“自豪的、骄傲的”符合语境;bored“无聊的”、tired“疲惫的”、sad“难过的”均不符合该情境。
6.句意:有时,当我们在一个新的地方或遇到新朋友时,我们也会感到紧张。
根据后文“meet new people”的并列结构可知,此处指代陌生的环境,place“地方”符合语境。
7.句意:例如,当我第一次加入篮球队时,我感到紧张。
根据后文“the basketball team”和 “practicing with my teammates”可知,此处指加入球队。joined “加入”符合语境;stood“站立”、saw“看见”、put“放置”均不符合文意。
8.句意:事实上,无论情绪是积极的还是消极的,我们都应该勇敢面对。
根据前文“whether they are positive or”的并列结构,此处与positive“积极的”相对立。negative “消极的”符合语境;bright“明亮的”、low“低落的”、mad“疯狂的”均不符合并列逻辑。
9.句意:不同的人可能有不同的处理情绪的方式。
根据后文介绍倾诉、排解情绪的具体做法可知,本段围绕应对情绪展开,dealing with“处理、应对”符合语境。
10.句意:分享我们的情绪有助于我们感觉更好,更了解自己。
根据前文“It’s a good way to talk about our feelings with family or friends.”可知,和他人倾诉就是分享情绪。sharing“分享”符合语境;testing“测试”、showing“展示”、fighting“斗争”均与上文提到的处理情绪的方法不匹配。

【导语】本文讲述了13岁男孩张杰在电梯被困后,冷静自救并坚持完成作业的故事,展现了他在困境中的勇气和智慧。
1.句意:虽然他感到有点害怕,但他仍然试图打开电梯门。
电梯突然停止,一般人会感到“害怕”。scared意为“害怕的”,符合被困电梯后的情绪反应。
2.句意:但很快他放弃了这个想法,靠墙站着,因为他认为电梯可能会突然坠落。
前文提到他试图打开门,后来放弃,放弃的是那个“开电梯门的想法”。idea意为“想法”,符合语境。

按按钮的目的是让电梯“运行”。work意为“运作,工作”,符合语境。

按下“停止”按钮锁死电梯,以确保它不会坠落。make sure意为“确保”,符合搭配。
5.句意:没有手机,张杰大声喊叫试图引起外面人的注意,但不幸的是没有人回应。
喊叫后没人回应,这是“不幸的”。unfortunately意为“不幸地”,符合语境。

前文说没人回应,后文说他没有放弃,前后为转折关系。However意为“然而”,表示转折,符合逻辑。
7.句意:他通过电梯门的缝隙递了一张纸条,请求帮助,并希望有人能捡到这张纸条并来救他出去。
后文提到“found the note”,所以此处指纸条,应填note。

他做完所有这些事(递纸条、冷静等待)之后再写作业。after意为“在……之后”,符合时间顺序。

【导语】本文讲述了14岁的女孩莉莉学习书法的经历。从最初的困难和想要放弃,到在奶奶的鼓励下坚持练习,最终获得奖项并从中获得成就感和耐心。文章通过莉莉的故事告诉我们,爱好不仅能带来乐趣,还能帮助我们提升自我。
1.句意:起初,她觉得这非常困难。
根据后文“She had to practice single strokes for hours, and her fingers often hurt.”可知,学习书法的过程是艰苦的,所以是“困难的”。difficult“困难的”符合语境。
2.句意:有些时候她想放弃。
前文提到练习很辛苦,手指疼痛,所以在困难面前人容易产生“放弃”的念头。give up“放弃”符合语境。give away“赠送”、put up“张贴”均不符合语境。
3.句意:但她的奶奶鼓励她继续尝试。
固定搭配encourage sb. to do sth.意为“鼓励某人做某事”,后接动词不定式作宾语补足语。
4.句意:现在她每天做完作业后花30分钟练习书法。
固定搭配spend time (in) doing sth.意为“花费时间做某事”,后接动名词形式。
5.句意:她这样做是为了在忙碌的一天学校生活后放松。
此处表示目的,“为了放松”,应用动词不定式to relax作目的状语。for后通常接名词或动名词,with表示伴随,均不符合。
6.句意:这给了她强烈的成就感。
前文提到她在比赛中获得了二等奖,这种通过努力获得的荣誉会带来“成就感”。achievement“成就”符合语境。happiness“快乐”虽然也通,但achievement更能对应比赛获奖的具体情境;sadness“悲伤”逻辑相反。
7.句意:她计划有一天教妹妹书法,这样妹妹也能体验这门传统艺术的乐趣。
此处指让妹妹亲身“体验”书法的乐趣。experience“体验、经历”符合语境。feel“感觉”侧重感官;find“发现”侧重寻找结果。
8.句意:她相信爱好能让人们的生活更有意义,并帮助我们实现梦想。
realize one's dream和achieve one's dream均为固定搭配,意为“实现梦想”。因此A和C都正确。
9.句意:她认为这能帮助她更多地了解传统文化。
help sb. (to) do sth.意为“帮助某人做某事”,后接动词原形(带to或不带to均可)。understand“理解、了解”符合。understands是三单形式,understanding是动名词,均不符合语法结构。
10.句意:莉莉的故事告诉我们,爱好不仅是为了乐趣,也是为了提升我们自己。
介词for后接动名词作宾语。improving“提升、改善”符合。improvement是名词,to improve是不定式,均不符合介词后的语法要求。

Believe me. It will make your spare time more colourful,” my mother said. She also gave me a nice notebook to save the leaves.
There was a park near my home. It was a good place to get leaves. One day, my grandmother went there with me. We walked slowly around it and picked up many leaves. After that, she went there with me several times. “At first, I just wanted to be with you so that you wouldn’t feel lonely.

It is a cold and dry winter morning. After you get up, you begin to sneeze (打喷嚏) and feel terrible. Could it just be a cold or the flu?
A cold is usually easy to deal with (应对). Usually you feel better after a week. But the flu can be very dangerous. It usually gives you fever. Sometimes it can make people die.
Don’t worry. If you get a flu vaccine, it can stop you from getting the virus. Flu vaccines work by giving the body a small number of flu viruses. This causes your body to develop antibodies (抗体). So next time you get the flu, the antibodies can help you.
Because the flu virus changes every few years, there are so many kinds of flu, such as H1N1 and H5N1. The antibodies for one kind of flu can’t help us fight against all kinds of flu. So we need to get the vaccine every year.
However, good health habits may also help stop you from catching a cold or the flu. Washing your hands often helps stop you from getting viruses. It is also important to take exercise and eat healthy food. All these can help you to be strong enough to fight against the flu.
1.A cold usually lasts (持续) for ______.
A.a day B.a week C.a month D.a year
2.What does the underlined word “vaccine” in Paragraph 3 mean in Chinese?
A.疾病 B.疫苗 C.细菌 D.药品
3.Why do we need to get the vaccine every year?
A.Because we may have a cold in winter. B.Because the flu virus changes every few years.
C.Because the flu can make people die. D.Because the flu is a kind of serious illness.
4.According to the text, the following ways can help stop us from catching the flu EXCEPT______.
A.eating healthy food B.washing hands often C.taking exercise D.having enough sleep
5.What is the main idea of the passage?
A.It tells us the danger of the cold. B.It tells us how to fight against the flu.
C.It tells us why we get sick in winter. D.It tells us how to make antibodies.
【答案】1.B 2.B 3.B 4.D 5.B
【导语】本文介绍了冬季感冒与流感的区别、流感疫苗的作用及接种原因,同时给出了预防感冒和流感的健康生活习惯,旨在帮助读者了解如何应对冬季呼吸道疾病。

4.最后一段提到“Washing your hands often… take exercise and eat healthy food.”,说明勤洗手、吃健康食物、锻炼可以预防流感;文中未提及“having enough sleep(充足睡眠)”。
5.全文介绍了感冒与流感的区别、流感疫苗的作用及预防方法,核心是讲述如何对抗流感。
Anger isn’t a good feeling. Anger may make us feel uncomfortable, but it’s seen everywhere. Unluckily, many of us have been used to keeping our feelings hidden. Research suggests that this can have long-term bad influences on your health.
Is it better to cry or break things whenever something makes us angry? The research points out that when we show our anger in this way, we probably can’t get on well with our friends and our family. The longer we stay angry, the worse the result will be. So how can we deal with our angry feelings in a right way?
First, know what makes us angry. Anger is often caused by feelings such as fear, disappointment and so on.
Also, care more about those everyday things that will make us angry. For example, we may get angry in the long lines at the store. Take a step back and think that it isn’t personal. Everyone in the line has dinner to make, just like us. One way to deal with anger is to talk about it. The study has shown that if we name our feelings, we can slowly calm ourselves down and feel better.
Take some deep breaths or find some helpful exercise to do. Exercise helps with feelings of anger.
If we learn to deal with anger, we will be happier and healthier.
1.According to the text, which of the following about anger is true?
A.Few people will keep their feelings hidden. B.Keeping anger hidden will probably do harm to our health.
C.Sometimes anger is a good feeling. D.It’s better to cry out when we are angry.

c. Talking about the feelings. d. Doing some controlled breathing.
A.abc B.abd C.acd D.bcd

A.What makes you angry? B.Why are you angry?
C.When to deal with anger D.How to deal with anger
【答案】1.B 2.B 3.A 4.C 5.D
【导语】本文围绕愤怒这一情绪展开,介绍了愤怒的危害、错误的宣泄方式,并给出了正确处理愤怒情绪的方法,引导人们学会管理情绪,收获更健康快乐的生活。
1.第一段“Research suggests that this can have long-term bad influences on your health.”中,“this”指代前文“keeping our feelings hidden”,即隐藏愤怒会对健康造成长期不良影响,B项说法正确。
2.第二段开头提出问题“Is it better to cry or break things whenever something makes us angry?”,作者通过提问的方式引出下文对正确处理愤怒情绪的探讨。
3.第二段中“The longer we stay angry, the worse the result will be.”说明生气的时间越长,它带来的不良影响就越严重,即X与Y呈正相关,对应正比例上升的直线。
4.文章第四段中指出“One way to deal with anger is to talk about it”,第五段中指出“Take some deep breaths or find some helpful exercise to do. Exercise helps with feelings of anger”,说明谈论情绪、深呼吸、做运动都能帮助处理愤怒,即a、c、d正确。
5.本文先介绍愤怒的危害,再重点围绕“how can we deal with our angry feelings in a right way”展开,详细介绍了处理愤怒的方法,因此最佳标题是“如何处理愤怒”。

【导语】本文主要讲述了西蒙从和父母关系紧张,到通过努力学画、赢得比赛,最终改善与父母关系的故事。
1.句意:他几乎不跟他们说话,因为他们总是拿他和姐姐比较。本句为原因状语从句,从句中缺少谓语动词。“compare A with B”是固定搭配,表示“拿A和B作比较”,符合此处语境。全文时态为一般过去时,故填compared。
2.句意:西蒙觉得这很不公平,经常为此和父母吵架。本句为宾语从句,从句中“that”是主语,“was”是系动词,空白处需要填入一个形容词作为表语。根据后半句“he often argued with his parents about this”可知,西蒙认为父母拿他和姐姐作比较是不公平的。故填fair的反义词unfair。
3.句意:然后他开始把大部分空闲时间都花在卧室里画画。根据后文的“She taught Simon some drawing .”以及下文的“绘画比赛”可知,此处指西蒙在卧室里画画。“spend time (in) doing sth.”是固定搭配,意为“花费时间做某事”,故填draw的现在分词形式drawing。
4.句意:她教了西蒙一些绘画技巧。根据后一句“With her help, Simon improved a lot.”可知,此处表示格林老师教了西蒙一些绘画技巧。skill是可数名词,前面有some,所以填其复数形式skills。
5.句意:格林老师建议他参加一个绘画比赛。根据下文内容可知,西蒙参加了绘画比赛,故此处表示格林老师建议他参加比赛。advise sb. to do sth.是固定搭配,意为“建议某人做某事”,故填join。
6.句意:和父母沟通最好的方式就是向他们证明你自己。本句是动词不定式作宾语,空格处需要填入一个词作为“prove”的宾语。结合句意可知此处指“证明自己”,在“prove”这一动词后,常接反身代词来表示“证明自己”。故填yourself。
7.句意:最后,比赛结果出来了。句子开头需要一个副词来修饰整个句子,前文讲了西蒙参加比赛,此处说比赛结果出来了,这里是整个事件的最后一步,因此表示“最后”。final是形容词,位于句首需首字母大写,故填其副词形式Finally。
8.句意:西蒙又开心又激动,因为他得了第一名。本句表示原因,根据“Simon was very happy and excited”可知,西蒙取得了好的成绩,故此处表示“第一名”。表示名次要用序数词,故填first。
9.句意:当他把奖状带回家时,他的父母很惊讶。本句缺少表语,空格处需要填入一个形容词。根据后一句“They thought it was almost impossible for their son to do such a good job.”可知,西蒙父母是惊讶的。修饰人的感受要用surprise的形容词形式surprised。
10.句意:现在西蒙和父母的关系比以前好多了。根据后面的“than before”可知,空格处用比较级。结合前一句“They were very happy and started to care about Simon.”可知,西蒙和父母的关系比之前好了很多。故填good的比较级better。
阅读短文,从方框中选择适当的词并用其正确形式填空,使短文通顺、意思完整。每空限填一词,每词限用一次。

I used to be a shy girl. To make me more outgoing, my mother told me to develop some hobbies. She thought it could make me relaxed. I finally agreed with her and had a try. I found I was interested in collecting leaves of beautiful shapes and colors, so I talked with my mum about it. “Collecting leaves needs to be done outside, so you can also enjoy the fresh air. Believe me. It will make your spare time more colourful,” my mother said. She also gave me a nice notebook to save the leaves.
There was a park near my home. It was a good place to get leaves. One day, my grandmother went there with me. We walked slowly around it and picked up many leaves. After that, she went there with me several times. “At first, I just wanted to be with you so that you wouldn’t feel lonely. However, I have fallen in love with the activity now.” After hearing her words, I understood something.

It is a cold and dry winter morning. After you get up, you begin to sneeze (打喷嚏) and feel terrible. Could it just be a cold or the flu?
A cold is usually easy to deal with (应对). Usually you feel better after a week. But the flu can be very dangerous. It usually gives you fever. Sometimes it can make people die.
Don’t worry. If you get a flu vaccine, it can stop you from getting the virus. Flu vaccines work by giving the body a small number of flu viruses. This causes your body to develop antibodies (抗体). So next time you get the flu, the antibodies can help you.
Because the flu virus changes every few years, there are so many kinds of flu, such as H1N1 and H5N1. The antibodies for one kind of flu can’t help us fight against all kinds of flu. So we need to get the vaccine every year.
However, good health habits may also help stop you from catching a cold or the flu. Washing your hands often helps stop you from getting viruses. It is also important to take exercise and eat healthy food. All these can help you to be strong enough to fight against the flu.
1.A cold usually lasts (持续) for ______.
A.a day B.a week C.a month D.a year
2.What does the underlined word “vaccine” in Paragraph 3 mean in Chinese?

4.According to the text, the following ways can help stop us from catching the flu EXCEPT______.
A.eating healthy food B.washing hands often C.taking exercise D.having enough sleep
5.What is the main idea of the passage?
A.It tells us the danger of the cold. B.It tells us how to fight against the flu.
C.It tells us why we get sick in winter. D.It tells us how to make antibodies.
Anger isn’t a good feeling. Anger may make us feel uncomfortable, but it’s seen everywhere. Unluckily, many of us have been used to keeping our feelings hidden. Research suggests that this can have long-term bad influences on your health.
Is it better to cry or break things whenever something makes us angry? The research points out that when we show our anger in this way, we probably can’t get on well with our friends and our family. The longer we stay angry, the worse the result will be. So how can we deal with our angry feelings in a right way?
First, know what makes us angry. Anger is often caused by feelings such as fear, disappointment and so on.
Also, care more about those everyday things that will make us angry. For example, we may get angry in the long lines at the store. Take a step back and think that it isn’t personal. Everyone in the line has dinner to make, just like us. One way to deal with anger is to talk about it. The study has shown that if we name our feelings, we can slowly calm ourselves down and feel better.
Take some deep breaths or find some helpful exercise to do. Exercise helps with feelings of anger.
If we learn to deal with anger, we will be happier and healthier.
1.According to the text, which of the following about anger is true?
