You can see it in many dishes. Mint can bring us many health benefits (益处). It can also help us relax. When you feel tired, just smell the plant. The plant is very easy to grow. You can plant it all year round, and it can grow well both indoors and outdoors.What you need a flowerpot (with holes on the bottom)       some soil (土壤) ★mint seeds or mint plants              a fork               a plant saucer (盆托) Steps {1} Prepare your pot Fill your flower pot with soil.

They are cherished companions, offering unconditional love and support that enriches our daily existence in profound ways. Dogs, often hailed as “man’s best friend,” are a prime example of the deep-seated bond between pets and humans. From the moment a puppy enters a family, it begins to form an emotional connection. They greet us with wagging tails and excited barks after a long day at work, instantly lifting our spirits. Dogs are not only great for companionship but also serve practical purposes. Service dogs, for instance, assist people with disabilities, whether it’s guiding the blind, alerting those with hearing impairments to sounds, or providing support to individuals with mobility issues. Their loyalty makes them invaluable partners in these roles. Cats, with their independent yet affectionate nature, also hold a special place in many households. A purring cat curled up on our laps can bring a sense of calm and relaxation. They may seem aloof at times, but their gentle nuzzles and soft meows when they seek attention show their love for their human companions. Cats can also be great for reducing stress. Studies have shown that interacting with a cat can lower blood pressure and ease anxiety. Small pets like rabbits, guinea pigs, and hamsters, though less commonly thought of in terms of close relationships, also offer unique forms of companionship. They may be more timid, but with patience and gentle handling, they can become comfortable around their owners. Watching these small creatures go about their daily activities, such as nibbling on food or playing in their cages, can be a source of simple joy. The relationship between pets and humans is a two-way street. We provide them with food, shelter, and medical care, while they offer us emotional support, a reason to be more active (especially in the case of dogs that need walks), and a sense of purpose. In fact, for many people living alone, a pet can be their main source of social interaction. However, this special bond also comes with responsibilities. We need to ensure that our pets are healthy, happy, and well-cared for. This includes regular vet check-ups, proper nutrition, and sufficient exercise (where applicable). In return, the love and loyalty our pets give us make all the efforts worthwhile. In conclusion, the relationship between pets and humans is a beautiful and essential part of our lives. It teaches us about love, responsibility, and the simple pleasures that come from sharing our world with another living being. Whether it’s a dog, a cat, or a small furry friend, these pets become an integral part of our families, and their presence makes our lives more fulfilling. 14．Why are dogs often called “man’s best friend”? A．Because they are the most popular pets. B．Because they can perform various tasks for humans. C．Because they offer unconditional love and practical assistance. D．Because they are easy to train. 15．How do cats help reduce stress? A．By always being affectionate and clingy. B．By purring and seeking attention in a gentle way. C．By playing energetic games with their owners. D．By being independent and not demanding much attention. 16．What is the significance (重要性) of small pets like rabbits and guinea pigs in human-pet relationships? A．They are mainly for show and decoration. B．They offer unique forms of companionship and simple joy. C．They are more intelligent than other pets. D．They require very little care compared to dogs and cats. 17．What does the author mean by “the relationship between pets and humans is a two-way street”? A．Pets and humans should walk on the street together. B．Both pets and humans should be trained. C．Humans should only focus on taking care of pets. D．Pets give and get care and love from humans. David Stringer is a star in the Chinese community in New Zealand’s South Island because he plays traditional Chinese musical instrument hulusi so well. On the evening of September 23, 2023, Stringer won many cheers again. He played a piece of Chinese folk music Deep in the Bamboo Forest using hulusi at the yearly Mid-Autumn Festival Gala Concert. It was a concert held by the Chinese community in Christchurch. “Although it is easy to play hulusi at a basic level (初级水平), Deep in the Bamboo Forest needs lots of skills, which is a Grade 6 exam piece.” said Stringer. Stringer first saw hulusi ten years ago on his first trip to China in Zhangjiajie in central China’s Hunan province. While seeing his curiosity (好奇心) about hulusi, his friend gave him one and also taught him to play it. The next year, Stringer went to China again and bought another two. Now, he has a total of five hulusi of different types. “From young, I was introduced to Chinese culture. More recently, I have been learning Chinese and made many friends in the Chinese community. Like New Zealanders, I find them friendly and encouraging.” Stringer said. “Chinese cultural symbols (象征) can also be found everywhere in New Zealand, and most locals have also started celebrating traditional Chinese festivals, such as the Chinese New Year, the Lantern Festival and the Mid-Autumn Festival,which are making our own culture richer.” he added. There is a hulusi club in Christchurch, and Stringer was encouraged to join it and has performed (表演) with the members there many times. “I feel lucky to make friends with Chinese people in the club, learn from and perform with them. Hulusi brings us together.” he said. 18．What can we know about the music Stringer played on September 23, 2023? A．It is strange to the locals. B．It is a little difficult to play. C．It is a piece at a basic level. D．It is Stringer’s favorite music. 19．What did Stringer do on his first trip to China? A．He learned skills of playing hulusi. B．He went to watch a hulusi show. C．He bought his first hulusi in Zhangjiajie. D．He made friends with a hulusi player. 20．What does Stringer think of Chinese culture according to Para.4? A．It is famous all over the world. B．It affects (影响) all New Zealanders. C．It is getting more popular in New Zealand. D．It is the same as New Zealand’s culture. 21．What’s the main idea of this passage? A．Stringer often dreams to be a music star. B．Stringer falls in love with Chinese hulusi. C．Hulusi becomes one of the Chinese symbols. D．Hulusi brings Chinese and New Zealanders together. China has a long history and rich cultural heritage. There are many different kinds of traditional art forms in our country, such as calligraphy, paper-cutting, Beijing Opera and clay figurines. Calligraphy is the art of writing. People use brushes and ink to write Chinese characters. It is not only a way of writing, but also a kind of art. Many old calligraphy works are kept in museums. Paper-cutting is another traditional art. It has a history of over 1,500 years. People usually use red paper to make paper cuttings. They often put them on doors or windows during the Spring Festival. Now more and more young people start to learn these traditional arts. We should pass them on from generation to generation and protect our great cultural heritage. 根据短文内容，选择最佳答案。 22．What is the passage mainly about? A．Chinese traditional arts. B．Chinese festivals. C．Chinese museums. D．Chinese history. 23．What do people use to do calligraphy? A．Pens and ink. B．Brushes and ink. C．Pencils and paper. D．Brushes and pens. 24．How long is the history of paper-cutting? A．Over 500 years. B．Over 1,000 years. C．Over 1,500 years. D．Over 2,000 years. 25．When do people often put paper cuttings up? A．During the Mid-Autumn Festival. B．During the Dragon Boat Festival.

Now, he has a total of five hulusi of different types. “From young, I was introduced to Chinese culture. More recently, I have been learning Chinese and made many friends in the Chinese community. Like New Zealanders, I find them friendly and encouraging.” Stringer said. “Chinese cultural symbols (象征) can also be found everywhere in New Zealand, and most locals have also started celebrating traditional Chinese festivals, such as the Chinese New Year, the Lantern Festival and the Mid-Autumn Festival,which are making our own culture richer.” he added. There is a hulusi club in Christchurch, and Stringer was encouraged to join it and has performed (表演) with the members there many times. “I feel lucky to make friends with Chinese people in the club, learn from and perform with them.
