2、 假如你是Amy,正在组织小组进行话题讨论,请你完成1-4小题信息记录(每空不超过3词),并在5小题处补充个人想法(不超过15词)。
Amy: Many of us have trouble planning daily study and tasks properly. Today let's share some practical ways to make students more organized at school work.
Hanna: I have a useful habit. I always spend about five minutes at the end of the day tidying up the desktop on my computer. I keep a copy of important documents (文件). I take away things I don't need any more and put everything into its right place.
Amy: That's a great and simple tip. Who'd like to share more ideas?
Gloria: For me, the most important thing is to study ahead. Prepare for exams a few weeks early and don't leave it until the night before! That's just common sense, I think. Last-minute work always makes me tired and nervous.
Amy: That's really good advice for our study.
Lou: My tip is to have a big noticeboard in your bedroom. I've got a whiteboard and divided it into different parts. I've got a part for each school subject and another one for other stuff. I use board pens to write reminders and I make sure I look at it every day. The best part is removing something from the board!
Amy: Great tip, Lou. And for me,. . .

What makes you truly happy? Many people think fun activities can bring lasting happiness, yet this idea is not totally correct. Paul Dolan, the writer of Happiness by Design, states that real happiness depends on a "pleasure-purpose balance". Simply enjoying fun things is not enough, and we also need activities that give life meaning.
We can easily tell what is joyful, but finding out what brings meaning takes deeper thinking. For example, most people will say that air pilots have jobs with clear purpose. They keep hundreds of people safe and fly all over the world. But they often have to stay in boring hotels and do the same actions hundreds of times. Those activities may seem meaningless and bring little joy. Just like everyone else, pilots need balance in their work and life to be happy.
There are many ways to find a sense of purpose. You may feel encouraged when working for public interests, offering help to your team members or seeing yourselves make progress. As students, you can think of your "job" as studying and passing exams. It's easy to do well in subjects you enjoy. But if you find some subjects difficult, you can work in study groups to help and share knowledge with one another. Then the purpose becomes about helping the team. You can also set small goals and reward yourselves after finishing each task.
In fact, the balance between pleasure and purpose never needs to be exactly half and half. Paul Dolan believes in "deciding, designing, doing". First, decide what things in life bring you pleasure or purpose—which is what your two lists are for. Then, don't just think about doing these activities, design your life so you do as many of them as possible. In this way, we can mix joy and meaning properly, and gain real happiness in study and daily life.
(1)、In Paul Dolan's idea, what's the secret of real happiness?A、Doing simple things in daily life. ' B、Finding activities full of life meaning. C、Enjoying fun activities all the time. ' D、Mixing pleasure and purpose properly.(2)、How does the writer prove his idea in Paragraph 2?A、By using sayings. B、By listing numbers. C、By giving an example. D、By making comparisons.(3)、Who might achieve real happiness when studying according to the text?A、David gives up when he finds subjects difficult. ' B、Harry sets big goals and always rewards himself. ' C、Adam spends most time studying what he enjoys. ' D、Ben works and improves together with groupmates.(4)、What's the main purpose of the text?A、To introduce Psul Dolan's new book. ' B、To show proper ways to get real happiness. ' C、To encourage us to join in more fun activities. ' D、To state different ideas about what brings fun. -

The French writer Brillat-Savarin once wrote, "Tell me what you eat, and I will tell you what you are. " We usually simplify this famous sentence as "You are what you eat. " Most people now connect it to healthy eating habits, but in fact, Brillat-Savarin was talking about our personality, personal character and local culture when he came up with the idea.
Chinese food is a perfect example to prove this view. Before I came to China, I only tried Chinese dishes in America, which were all changed to suit American people's tastes. The most popular one is General Tso's chicken, made of fried chicken covered with sweet sauce and flavoured with hot red peppers. It is not a real Chinese dish at all, so it tells us little about Chinese people. Instead, it clearly shows that Americans love bold, simple flavours and are brave enough to try new kinds of food.
Later, I came to China and tried local food across different parts of the country. From Sichuan's special spicy peppercorns, Shandong's warm family-made dumplings, to Guangdong's fine morning dim sum, every local dish tells a wonderful story of its local culture. Wherever I went, I found food was as different as the local people, and Chinese people always show their warm friendship and kindness through food.
At last, we can be sure that culture and dishes go hand in hand. The food local people eat tells us a lot about their daily life and traditional culture. If you don't experience one of them, you can never truly understand the other.
(1)、What does "it" in Paragraph 1 refer to?A、The eating habit. B、The famous sentence. C、The local culture. D、The travel experience.(2)、Which italic (斜体) word has the same meaning as the underlined word "flavoured"?A、Musicflavoursour daily life. B、This cake has a sweetflavour. C、Weflavour the soup with pepper. D、I like theflavour of milk ice cream.(3)、Which of the following best shows the structure of the text?A、
B、
C、
D、
(4)、Which of the following is the best title for the passage?A、Travel around China B、Culture and Dishes C、Delicious Local Food D、Countries and Manners -

A woman in New Brunswick is helping hundreds of children experience one of the most exciting parts of summer: the freedom of riding a bike with friends around the neighborhood.
For the past 14 years, Krista Richard has been collecting donated bicycles, repairing them, and giving them away for free through her program, Bikes and Trikes for Everyone, in Moncton, Canada. Her simple and kind act has now helped thousands of kids get back outside, make friends, and create lasting memories.

And the need continues to grow. More than 400 children are now on the waiting list.
For Richard, the effort is all worth it when she sees the reaction on a child's face.
"I had one little boy. . . he got on his bike and he didn't want to go home," she recalled.
"Every time he went by me, he would say, ‘____'"
(1)、 What did Richard do in her program?'

Do you love eating potatoes, one of the most popular vegetables in the world? And do you know how potatoes come into being (形成)?Scientists find something amazing: the tomato is the "mother" of the potato!
About 9 million years ago, an old kind of tomato plant and another plant called Etuberosum grew together and created a new plant. This new plant could grow a special part under the ground: the tuber. That is the potato we eat today!
Scientists have studied the genes (基因) of potatoes for years. They have found that potatoes get genes from both the tomato and Etuberosum. The tomato is like the mother, and Etuberosum is like the father.
Why can potatoes grow tubers but tomatoes and Etuberosum cannot? Scientists say the genes from the two plants join in a new way. One gene from the tomato tells the potato plant when to start growing tubers. The other gene from Etuberosum helps the underground parts grow big and full of food. The two genes are very important. If there is only one of them, the potato cannot grow tubers.
Thanks to their special genes, potatoes can live in dry or cold weather. They can keep water and food in their tubers. That is why they are now grown all over the world. Next time you eat a potato, remember—its mother is a tomato!
(1)、How does the writer start the passage?A、By telling a story. B、By listing numbers. C、By asking questions. D、By giving an example.(2)、What can we learn about potatoes from the passage?A、Potatoes can not live in dry weather. B、Potatoes get all their genes from the tomato plants. C、The first potatoes came into being about 7 million years ago. D、The gene from Etuberosum helps make the underground parts big.(3)、What does the word "them" refer to in Paragraph 4?A、The genes. B、The plants. C、The tomatoes. D、The underground parts.(4)、Why does the writer write this passage?A、To explain why potatoes can grow tubers. B、To show us how potatoes come into being. C、To show how potatoes and tomatoes are different. D、To explain why potatoes are popular around the world. -
