Mrs. Cooper isn’t good at making plans. B We can do many interesting chemical tests in our class. Today, we will use CO₂ to blow up a balloon! Mixing baking soda (小苏打) with vinegar (醋) together can give off the CO₂. What you’ll need 1)A balloon 2)About 40 ml of water 3)A soft drink bottle 4)Vinegar 5)A teaspoon of baking soda Instructions ●Before you begin, make sure that you pull the balloon long to make it as easy as possible to blow up. ●Put the 40 ml of water into the soft drink bottle. ●Add the baking soda and mix it with water. ●Put the vinegar in and quickly put the balloon over the mouth of the bottle. What’s happening? If all goes well, then the balloon should become bigger and bigger! Adding the vinegar to the baking soda creates a chemical effect. The baking soda is a base (碱), while the vinegar is an acid (酸). When the two are mixed, they’ll create CO₂. The gas rises up and runs away through the soft drink bottle.

In one of his poems, Tang Dynasty poet Du Mu once compared girls around the age of 13 to cardamom (豆蔻) flowers in the bud (含苞待放). Since then, doukou nianhua has been used to describe teen girls of this age. Ancient Chinese people liked to describe someone’s age using titles (称谓), rather than the exact number. For example, chuitiao, meaning “straight hair”, meant a hairstyle that was popular for very young children in ancient China. It was used for children from 3 to 8 years old. Zongjiao, meaning “twisted horn”, was used to describe children from 9 to 14 years old. Back then, children would divide their hair into two halves and twist each half into a knot (结) on the top of their head, just like two horns. Shufa, meaning to tie one’s hair up, was used for boys who had reached the age of 15. Boys would let down their“twisted horns” and tie up their hair in a bunch (一束) when they turned 15. Ruoguan, or “junior cap”, was used for young men in their twenties. These men would go to a hat-wearing ceremony when they turned 20 to show that they had become adults. The “year of independence” was when a man turned 30. At the age of 40, one “will not become puzzled”. When a man turned 50, he had reached the “year of understanding the mandate (命令) of heaven”, meaning to become aware of one’s fate and no longer make any useless efforts. Finally, if you were lucky to live past one hundred years, really a long life, you would be titled qiyi (期颐). 8. At what age do children reach the stage described by chuitiao? A. 3 to 8 years old. B. 13 years old. C. 9 to 14 years old. D. 15 years old. 9. Which of the following titles is used to describe an adult? A. zongjiao B. shufa C. ruoguan D. chuitiao 10. What does the underlined word “independence” in the passage mean in Chinese? A. 不惑 B. 而立 C. 知天命 D. 期颐 11. What’s the best title of the passage? A. Interesting ancient people. B. People of different ages hope for different things. C. Zongjiao, shufa, and ruoguan are titles for ancient people. D. Different titles in ancient times. D What are your parents like? Do they have any strict family rules for you? Do they make you feel stressed? Recently, a mother’s special idea about her kids’ playtime has caught people’s attention online. Jessi Meeks says every day, her three kids get an hour where they get to do “whatever” they want. She calls it “whatever-makes-you happy hour”. Meeks’ idea came naturally from one of her kids’ suggestions. “One afternoon, the kids were outside painting and my husband and I were trying to talk and carry on a conversation. My oldest son Cannon looked at me and asked, ‘Can I paint my hands?’ And I said, ‘Whatever makes you happy. You all just do it and be quiet so Mommy and Daddy can talk to each other.’” Meeks recalls. “And from then on, around that same time of the day, they would ask if they could do something and we’d be like ‘Sure, whatever makes you happy.’” But Meeks also sets necessary boundaries (界限). “If they start hurting themselves or hurting each other, we step in.” she adds, “And we don’t let them watch TV.” Meeks believes the hour of free playtime has been beneficial for her kids. If they make a big mess, she thinks it’s a good chance to teach little ones the practice of tidying up. At the same time, it’s also a great way to allow time for them to explore and play the way they want. “Even though the kids make a mess at times, it has worked out well for everyone in my family.” Meeks says. She views “whatever makes-you-happy hour” as a daily period to make new memories and build a good family relationship. 12. How does the author start the passage? A. By explaining a fact. B. By raising questions. C. By giving an example. D. By comparing opinions. 13. Why did Meeks allow Cannon to paint his hands? A. Cannon had a talent for painting. B. Her husband promised to clean up the mess. C. Painting his hands was Cannon’s favorite thing. D. She was able to keep talking with her husband. 14. The couple will step in _________. A. when the kids get into fights B. if the kids mess up the room C. if the kids are going to the cinema D. when the kids draw on themselves 15. What is the author’s purpose in writing this passage? A. To show a new kind of family rule. B. To introduce some good family activities. C. To share a special way to educate children. D. To give some advice on how to deal with children. 第Ⅱ卷(非选择题 共55分) 三、听力填词(共5小题，满分5分) 请听下面一段独白。根据所听到的内容，写出可以填入下表1~5空格处的适当单词，每空限填一词。(独白读两遍) Dave’s great way to save 1 Reading He often goes to 2 to read books.

Here I’d like to introduce different eating culture to you. In China, people use chopsticks to enjoy rice, noodles and dumplings. For table manners, we let the elder eat first to show respect. Besides, it is rude to stick chopsticks vertically into rice or tap bowls with chopsticks. However, Westerners eat with forks and knives. Their main food includes bread, pizza and hamburgers. Remember not to wave knives or forks while eating at the table. In my opinion, every culture is valuable and unique. We should understand differences and respect various customs actively. Let’s embrace the colorful world together and learn from each other. 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
