Ideas from Ms Andrew

exercise now.Perhaps doing some exercise in water and taking yoga classes are good choices.
Later,you can try strong exercise with the doctor's guide.

You should make exercise as part of your daily life.Perhaps there is a gym near where you
work-keep some sports clothes at work and go there for just 15 minutes during your lunch break.Even ten
minutes every now and then is enough.

Oh dear!I think you should try a different kind of sport.I don't think you should exercise by
yourself.You could do it with other people.What about a sport,such as tennis or dancing?You're sure to find
one you like.

Do you love to keep a pet at home?It is becoming popular to keep pets.Many people even hope to talk with
their pets in everyday life.This was difficult before,but scientists are now using AI to help make this dream come
true.
Karen Bakker,a teacher in Canada,thinks that AI will make people closer to the world of animals and plants
in the future."AI helps people talk with bats (and bees,"Bakker says.How does it work?
When bats talk with one another,people first use AI to write down their sounds.Then they input()the
sounds into a computer.At last,they use AI to find out what the bats say.People cannot hear these sounds with
their ears.But AI knows these sounds.It can also help people speak back to bats.
People also find an interesting thing:When baby bats learn to "speak",mother bats often lower their voices.
However,as mothers,women often raise their voices during this time.
As for bees,people use a computer to watch them and study their language.Scientists now know how bees
send some information to talk.They even make a robot bee and it can talk with other bees.
56.How does the writer start the text?
A.By telling a story.B.By giving an example.
C.By asking a question.
57.What's the correct order when people use AI to help talk with bats?

A.We can know more about animals with the help of AI.
B.People could talk with plants and animals easily before.
C.Scientists still don't know how bees talk with one another.
59.According to the text,which animal's way of talking is most like bats'?
A.Snakes-use noses to find food.
B.Dolphins(海豚)一use sounds to talk.

Onions are common ingredients in our kitchens.They are tasty and healthy,but cutting them into pieces is
often a challenge because their strong smell often makes our eyes water.What's worse,we can't stop that.
So,what causes us to cry when we are cutting onions?Actually,it's a chemical(化学物质)called
propanethial S-oxide formed from onions'juicy drops.When we cut an onion,its cells inside are broken.
This causes a chemical reaction and creates propanethial S-oxide.Then,the chemical rises into the air and our eyes
start to water after they come into contact with the chemical.
However,a recent study suggested that crying over cutting onions could be a thing of the past.Physicist
Navid Hooshanginejad and his team found an easy way to avoid onion tears.
"This is something everybody is dealing with,"says Navid.Now we can explain and understand it better."
While Navid was cutting onions for a salad one day,he thought,"Why did the onion cause tears?How can I
avoid that?"The next day,he brought a 10-pound bag of onions to his office and began his study.
Navid and his team wanted to find out what kind of cutting way matters most in deciding how far onions'
juicy drops can fly.They set up a special tool for recording,took a knife and started cutting onions.
According to the results,fast cuts with a dull (knife can shoot onion drops nearly 40 metres.That's
almost the height of a huge tree.Slow and careful cuts with a sharp knife,however,can keep the juice
from even reaching eye level.
The study is interesting and helpful.It shows that cutting with sharper knives and slower cuts can avoid those
painful tears.What good news for anyone who cooks!

.7-
another city for a week,leaving her alone at home.When her mother came home,she could not even find a clean
dish or a clean shirt.
Schools play an important role in teaching students about the importance of working hard.Primary and

animals,grow and pick vegetables there.
Parents should also encourage children to learn how to do chores at home.Teenagers should learn one or two
life skills every year.These skills include cooking,washing their own clothes,tidying their rooms and so on.The
basic skills may help teenagers to solve the problems they will meet in the future.
81.What does the underlined word "this"refer to?
82.What does the writer want to show by giving the example of Nancy?

Spring Break
Spring Break is a fantastic time for us to relax and get close to nature.
During the break,we can do many fun activities.We can go hiking to breathe fresh air,fly
kites on the grassland,or have a picnic with fiends.These outdoor activities not only build up our
bodies but also help us reduce our stress from study.
I strongly recommend visiting Mount Huangshan.It is one of the most famous natural
wonders in China.Its highest peak,Lotus Peak,reaches an amazing 1,864.8 meters high.You can
see the most beautiful strange rocks,ancient pines and fantastic seas of clouds there.It's truly the
best place to enjoy the magic of spring.

Many teenagers today feel a sense of anxiety,and there are several reasons for this.
Experts explained that much of this anxiety comes from teenagers being hard on themselves
They face the pressure of not doing better than others.Many teenagers want to get full marks and
win first place.
Many teenagers care about what others think of them too.That is just part of growing up,but
some teenagers take it too seriously.They worry that others may think they are not smart.
Teenagers'focus on their appearance can also bring them anxiety.For girls,developing early
is usually worse than developing on time or late,while boys care a lot about height,according to
experts.
This anxiety shows itself in many clear signs.Some teenagers may get angry easily.Some
may stop joining social activities,and many can't sleep well or have headaches.
