When you sit down with your family to eat a meal, do you ever wonder where and when the tradition of using chopsticks began?
People say that the first chopsticks were used in China 5,000 years ago. The practice became popular in Korea, Vietnam and Japan. Today they are a symbol (象征) of Asian culture. Of Asian countries, Japanese have a day to celebrate them. August 4th is Chopsticks Day in Japan. The different cooking traditions of Asia lead to different kinds of chopsticks. For example, the Japanese use sharp chopsticks because they eat a lot of fish. Sharp chopsticks are good for picking the fish from the bones.
Chopsticks are made from different kinds of material. Bamboo chopsticks are common because the material is easy to break apart and doesn‘t burn easily. People also use wood and bone for chopsticks. Some rich people had theirs made from precious metals. Many kings used silver chopsticks, for it was believed that they would turn black if there was poison (毒) in the food. There are also many table manners connected with chopsticks. For example, never stick your chopsticks upright in your rice bowl or tap on your bowl with your chopsticks. People believe this is impolite to the host.

in the way that they do, called psychologists, are starting to believe it. You know that your brain is connected to every part of your body through your nervous system (神经系统). Now scientists have proved that how you think and feel have an influence on the health of your body.
Stress (压力,紧张) is caused whenever there is a problem or a change in your life. Of course, everybody has stress more or less; nobody‘s life is perfect. In fact, stress is necessary. Without stress, we would never learn anything or grow or change. We would probably be bored to death. But too much stress can hurt you. It can weaken your body‘s protection so that you are more likely to catch diseases. It can even make you more likely to have an accident.
When you feel stress, your brain sends a message to your body to produce a chemical called adrenaline (肾上腺素). Adrenaline speeds up your breathing and your heart beat. Today you have a different kind of stress. Problems like endless homework or troubles with your family are the kind of things you can‘t fight or run away from, so you don‘t use up all that adrenaline. It just stays inside you. And that‘s what can do something bad to you.
What can you do about stress? First, you can try to find ways to change things so you aren‘t under so much stress. You can make a plan to finish homework or go to a doctor or a psychologist to try to work things out with your family or your friends. But sometimes you can‘t change a stressful situation. Sometimes you don‘t even want to. A big change might be a good change, but it will still be stressful.
78. According to the passage, when you leave the hospital, the doctor gives you some medicine and
_______ as well.
A. checks your fever B. looks at your throat
C. tells you the reasons of your illness D. advises you to practise thinking skills 79. Why do the scientists believe that the way you think may be the cause of your illness?
A. Because your brain is a part of your body. B. Because you always think in a wrong way.
C. Because your nervous system is the most important.
D. Because the way you think has connection with the health of your body. 80. Which of the following is TRUE according the passage?
A. You shouldn‘t go to the gym if you are under stress. B. One can do his homework to burn up adrenaline.
C. Diseases and accidents are caused by stress. D. Stress can sometimes be helpful.
81. A chemical called adrenaline can speed up ___________.
A. your breathing and heart beat B. your blood running C. your brain thinking D. your body relaxing
82. Which of the following can NOT reduce stress according to the passage? A. Making a plan about your homework. B. Asking a psychologist for help.
C. Going to your family or friends for help.
D. Eating some sweet food.
83. From the last sentence of this passage, we can know that ___________.

A good film usually gives us a lesson. For example, ‗Beauty and the Beast‘ teaches us to love someone for his/her good h 94 but not for his/her looks. ‗The Lion King‘ teaches us to be brave and be fair to other people.
Some films are quickly f 95 ; others stay for a long time as classics (经典) . People can see a classic film many times and still enjoy it. Every time they see it, they learn something n96 . For example, if you worry about your looks, you may watch ‗Beauty and the Beast‘ again and learn that looks are not so important. If you are sad, you may watch ‗Mouse Hunt‘ again to make y 97 happy.
There are many kinds of films. There are adventure films, comedies, horror films, science fiction films, documentaries(纪录片), action films, love stories and so on. H 98 , many of these films are only suitable for adults. So always ask your parents before you see a film.

A long time ago, Milton S. Hershey, the creator of the popular chocolate bars, was dipped in (浸入) warm chocolate. I know all about it. My grandfather was there!
At nineteen, Hershey opened a candy business in Philadelphia (费城). Although it failed, he tried again in several other cities and succeeded with Crystal A Caramels. But Hershey was not satisfied with it. He did some
experiments with chocolate and managed to sell his first chocolate bars in 1900. They were a great success. Three years later, Hershey built a factory to sell his chocolate bars.
Hershey was usually pleasant, kind and enjoyed a good joke. However, in his chocolate factory, he was serious with the workers. He was both respected and feared. His anger would burst out when things didn‘t go as he‘d expected, and workers would be fired (解雇) for mistakes.
My grandfather began working in the factory as a young man. His job was to push the vats (大桶) of warm chocolate to a storage area. To do this, he had to push the heavy vats up a ramp (斜坡) and across the walkway. One day, Hershey was taking a walk while my grandfather was pushing a vat of chocolate up the ramp. Suddenly, Hershey fell into the vat. Everyone else held their breath and ran up to pull him out. Grandfather was very frightened. Was he going to lose his job?
However, Hershey wasn‘t angry. He said something in a low voice. Then he smiled. ―It‘s not your fault, son,‖ he said. ―I need to watch where I‘m going.‖ He put some chocolate in his mouth. ―Mmm, that‘s good,‖ he said. Everyone laughed. Hershey kept walking with the dripping chocolate. And Grandfather kept his job.
Now when you enjoy the taste of ―Kisses‖ chocolate, do you think about the funny story of Mr. Hershey—my grandfather‘s father?

III. Listen to the passage and tell whether the following statements are true or false(判断下列句子是否符合你听到的短文内容,符合的用“T”表示,不符合的用“F”表示): Da Shan, a Canadian, is perhaps China‘s most famous foreigner. He speaks Chinese well. He was born in 1965 and he started to learn Chinese when he studied at Toronto University. In order to remember more Chinese words, he often wrote them down on small cards. But he would only memorize words he met with while reading, listening or talking in the following two weeks. “There‘s no use learning words that don‘t appear often,”he said. “And the best way to learn a foreign language is to keep using it and understand the culture behind it, or you‘ll forget everything quickly.”
Da Shan says it is important to get into the language environment. Talking with Chinese friends has helped him learn not only the words, but also the country and its people.
IV. Listen to the passage and complete the following sentences(听短文,完成下列内容。每空格限填一词):
―USA? Britain? Which country is better to study in?‖ We often hear such discussions. As China opens its doors, studying abroad has become a dream for many Chinese students. They want to learn about the world. But there are problems that should be thought about. Language is the first. Students must spend a lot of time learning another language and getting used to a different culture.
Students must also learn to live without parents‘ care and deal with all kinds of things they haven‘t done before, such as looking after themselves. There are reports about Chinese students abroad facing difficulties and giving up easily. When they have to take care of themselves, it is hard for students to study well.
Finally, studying abroad brings a heavy burden to the family. For most Chinese parents, the cost of studying abroad is very high. But is it worth it?
So when you wonder which country is better to study in,consider whether studying abroad is the right choice.
