Great to hear you are coming to the USA! I do hope you can stop by and visit us in the Big Apple—a popular name for New York City. There are so many things to see and do here.

People often say that no visit to New York City is complete without a trip to Broadway. In Broadway, you can see cafes, street performers (表演者) and colourful signs.

阅读下面短文,根据短文内容,完成下列各题。
You’re walking down the street, thinking about your own business when a stranger passes by. He doesn’t say anything at all, but he gives you a smile. Sometimes in a moment and almost unwillingly, you will do the same thing. You just can’t help it and you catch his smile. For some unknown reason, when we see someone smile, we just can’t stop ourselves doing the same thing.
In honor of World Smile Day (the first Friday in October), it’s the time we got real answers to this matter. Is smiling contagious (感染性的)? Well, a study in the Trends in Cognitive Sciences magazine gives the answer “yes”. As part of it, psychologists (心理学家) looked into why we often copy people’s facial expressions when we talk to them.
Interestingly, one of the results was that we “try on” the emotions (感情) of others when we are talking with them. So, for example, when a friend tells us some good news happily, we may show the same emotion through our smile. In doing so, we are feeling and understanding their joy. So the reason we smile back when someone smiles at us is that we want to feel the same way as that person.
However, not everyone can do this. During the research, the psychologists find people with some illnesses can’t copy others’ facial expressions. They know someone is smiling but they cannot smile back.

Passage 19

Should parents ask their children to do chores? Some don’t think that children should do chores, because they think children are too young. But many people think that children should do chores.

Every day, many people wait in line at the Chengdu Research Base at around 7 a.m. They come to the base because of an online star—Hua Hua. The cute panda can understand and follow her keeper Grandpa Tan when he calls her “Guo Lai”. Many tourists think it is her name, but in fact, it means “come here” in Sichuan language.
Many of us may envy panda keepers like Grandpa Tan because they can be close to pandas every day. But in fact, their job is full of hard work. For example, keepers need to closely watch pandas’ diets to guarantee they are healthy. They also need to clean the pandas’ living places every day. “Doing the same things every day makes me feel tired and bored. But I feel happy when Hua Hua runs over to me,” says Grandpa Tan.
But is there any danger for pandas in the Research Base? Unluckily, the answer is yes. For example, during the May Day holiday, a woman tried to throw bamboo shoots (竹笋) in the adult pandas’ area. Another man helped his child stand on a fence to throw a glass bottle inside. Luckily, the workers quickly removed the things before something bad could happen.
Not only those workers, we hope that normal people like us can also try our best to protect pandas and offer better living conditions to them.

阅读下面短文,根据短文内容,完成下列各题。
You’re walking down the street, thinking about your own business when a stranger passes by. He doesn’t say anything at all, but he gives you a smile. Sometimes in a moment and almost unwillingly, you will do the same thing. You just can’t help it and you catch his smile. For some unknown reason, when we see someone smile, we just can’t stop ourselves doing the same thing.
In honor of World Smile Day (the first Friday in October), it’s the time we got real answers to this matter. Is smiling contagious (感染性的)? Well, a study in the Trends in Cognitive Sciences magazine gives the answer “yes”. As part of it, psychologists (心理学家) looked into why we often copy people’s facial expressions when we talk to them.
Interestingly, one of the results was that we “try on” the emotions (感情) of others when we are talking with them. So, for example, when a friend tells us some good news happily, we may show the same emotion through our smile. In doing so, we are feeling and understanding their joy. So the reason we smile back when someone smiles at us is that we want to feel the same way as that person.
However, not everyone can do this. During the research, the psychologists find people with some illnesses can’t copy others’ facial expressions. They know someone is smiling but they cannot smile back.
66.What will people sometimes do when a stranger gives them a smile?
Sometimes they will do when a stranger gives them a smile.
67.What does the underlined word “it” refer to (指代) in the second paragraph?
