Food is a very important and necessary part of our lives
We eat food because we need it to live. It gives us the nutrients (营养) that we need for our bodies to grow. If we are happy, we eat; if we are sad, we eat;boredom, depression, and loneliness are other reasons that we eat. When we have friends or family over, we usually have some forms of food to offer them, whether it is a light snack or a full meal.
Many of us like certain foods because we have been raised eating those foods.In many cases, whatever our parents eat or like to eat is what we eventually enjoy eating. The region where we live as well as economics determines much of our food selection. If we lived in China, we would eat a lot of rice because it is what is grown there.
Food is also a part of our many celebrations. However, the way that food is used in celebrations varies from home to home, and country to country.To understand why different foods are used in different celebrations, we need to understand a little about culture and how it could affect the foods we use.
A. Also, we use food for our social needs.
B. Very often, we eat food for psychological (心理的) reasons.
C. Nowadays many people choose to eat healthy food.
D. It is affected by different cultures around the world.
E. So our background and environment play a great role in what we eat.
F. Cheap food in one country may be quite expensive in another country.
G. The food that we choose to eat is selected(选择) for a number of different reasons.

It is difficult for parents of nearly every family to teach their children to be responsible for housework, but with one of the following suggestions, you really can get your children to help at home.
If you give your children the impression that they can never do anything quite right, then they will regard themselves as unfit or unable persons. Unless children believe they can succeed, they will never become totally independent.
My daughter Caria's fifth-grade teacher made every child in her class feel special.When students received less than a prefect test score, she would point out what they had mastered and declared firmly they could learn what they had missed.
You can use the same technique when you evaluate(评价) your child's work at home. Don't always scold and give lots of praise instead. Talk about what he has done right, not about what he hasn't done. If your child completes a difficult task, promise him a Sunday trip or a ball game with Dad.
Learning is a process of trying and failing and trying and succeeding. If you teach your children not to fear a mistake of failure, they will learn faster and achieve success at last.
(1)、The whole passage deals with____A、social education B、school education C、family education D、pre-school education(2)、The author thinks that____A、there is no way to get children to help at home B、more praise and encouragement can make children more responsible and helpful C、it is very difficult to make children responsible for housework D、children can be forced to help with housework(3)、The article gives us a good suggestion about how to evaluate your child's work at home. That is to____A、praise his success B、promise him a trip C、give him a punishment D、promise him a ball game(4)、The author advises readers to____A、learn from himself, for he has a good way of teaching B、take pride in Caria's fifth-grade teacher C、do as what Caria's teacher did in educating children D、follow Caria's example because she never fails in the test(5)、Having read the last paragraph, we can conclude that____A、pride goes before a fall B、practice makes perfect C、no pains, no gains D、failure is the mother of success -

We all lie. Although we've been taught that lying is wrong, everyone has lied at some point in their lives.
Consider this situation: Your grandmother sends you a sweater for your birthday. You hate the color, but thank her anyway, and promise to wear it often. Or imagine you go to a friend' s birthday party. If she asks you if you enjoyed your meal, you don't want to offend (冒犯) her, so you say, "Yes, it was great." We call these lies "white lies"一harmless and small lies.
However, are there situations where lying is necessary? Imagine this: You have been late to school several days for a week. Your teacher has told you that if you're late again you'll be
Suspended (暂时停学). Your only hope of not being suspended is to lie and say that your bus broke down on the way to school. Would you lie, or tell the truth and receive the punishment? Now, imagine something more serious: You're walking in a street and a frantic (慌乱不安的) young man runs by you and hides in a corner. Seconds later, an angry-looking person comes in asking if you've seen a young man run past. What would you do? If you tell the truth, the young man may get hurt.
So the question remains: Is it OK to lie or not?
A. But is lying really always wrong?
B. Lying can quickly get out of control.
C. Lying may in fact help the young man.
D. The food her mother prepared doesn't taste good.
E. She's likely to serve the same bad food in the future.
F. Though you have set your alarm for an earlier time, you are still late.
G. We lie to protect the feelings of others or to make them feel good about themselves.

Could it be that music, art, literature, and other creative works that add so much richness to our lives are the products of a misfiring brain? That' s basically the claim of a new study in Nature Neuroscience.
According to the researchers, the job of the brain is to make"safe"decisions from a strategic aspect. Creative thinking—"non-greedy"thinking一on the other hand, is a matter of synthesizing(综合)available information in a new way, not necessarily the most practical one. The curiosity that leads to creative thinking has been assumed to be a largely reasonable process of examining a range of unknowns to identify choices that lead to pleasing or expressive outcomes. Nope, say the researchers of the study. The brain reaches unusual conclusions because it' s malfunctioning(机能失常). And music, art, literature come from brain noise.
For the study, lead researcher Valentin Wyatt and colleagues had a hundred people play a slot machine game that offered them a choice of two symbols, one of which proved to be more likely to earn them a monetary reward. As they played, the researchers monitored their brains with MRI scans. Each time they chose wrong by selecting the other symbol, the part of the brain associated with decision-making lit up, indicating a failure to successfully compute the correct answer." Our participants have the impression of choosing the best symbol and not the most uncertain, but they do it on the basis of wrong information resulting from errors of reasoning," says Wyatt.
Wyatt notes that not all such mistakes are bad, citing Christopher Columbus' accidental discovery of the Western Hemisphere, which was caused by a brain blip(短暂性问题). A better example would be the arts, including comedy. These are "mistakes" we don' t want to do without.
While there' s clearly a benefit of the brain being able to come up with solutions that are likely to produce the most practically positive outcomes, there' s no denying that lots of these "errors"absolutely delight us.
(1)、How does the author introduce the topic of the text?A、By giving a definition. B、By showing an example. C、By putting forward a guess. D、By referring to relevant data.(2)、What did the study in Nature Neuroscience find?A、Inspiration for the arts originates from temporary curiosity. B、Creative thinking comes from mistakes in brains ' working. C、Curiosity contributes to a reasonable selection of unknowns. D、Creative thinking analyzes available information in practical ways.(3)、Which aspect of the study does Paragraph 3 mainly talk about?A、Its theoretical basis. B、Its experimental process. C、Its practical significance. D、Its participants' backgrounds.(4)、What is the author' s attitude towards brains'"errors "?A、Positive. B、Objective. C、Critical. D、Indifferent. -

If you put a narrow straw in a glass of water, some of the water will climb up the tube.
But without help, that water will climb only a small distance. Now, some researchers have come up with a device that can make water climb higher. That could bring drinking water to communities that suffer water shortages.
Throughout the day, water evaporates(蒸发)out of a plant' s leaves. This creates
suction(吸力)inside the cells of the plant. That suction pulls water and nutrients up through the roots to feed leaves and new growth. Such suction can lift water to the treetops. Jonathan Boreyko, who is a materials scientist at Virginia Tech, and his teammates have designed a synthetic(人造的)tree based on the law. They say that the device can help people who live in dry areas get water even from deep underground and that it might also let people in coastal areas mine fresh drinking water from the sea.
Ndidi Eyegheleme is a mechanical engineer. She grew up in a small coastal village in Africa. Today she works with Boreyko at Virginia Tech." Where we lived was surrounded by salty water," she recalled." As a result, we had a lot of problems getting fresh water to drink." That 's why she 's so interested in making synthetic trees." They could help people in dry parts of the world, too," she added. About 2.2 billion people lack reliable access to clean drinking water worldwide, the United Nations reports. Yet in some places, water may be just a few meters below their feet.
"The key to making this tree energy-efficient is to heat and evaporate only the water inside the synthetic leaf, instead of the entire pool of water below it," said Hadi Ghasemi, a mechanical engineer at the University of Houston in Texas." If you only have to heat a small amount of water, you will have a much-reduced need for energy," he said.
(1)、What can we infer from Paragraph 2?A、Water safety affects our life greatly. B、The device can help mine salt as well. C、The researchers were inspired by plants. D、Trees help a lot in environmental protection.(2)、What fired Ndidi' s enthusiasm for joining Boreyko' s project?A、Her work experience with the UN. B、Food safety problems in dry areas. C、Her previous poor living environment. D、Environmental problems in the world.(3)、How can the synthetic tree be energy-efficient according to Hadi?A、By using well-grown leaves. B、By making leaf water fully boiled. C、By using clean energy to heat water. D、By avoiding heating unnecessary water .(4)、What would be the best title for the text?A、A new study reveals the secrets of plants B、An invention helps tap underground water C、Trees play a role in fighting climate change D、Water shortage is becoming a worldwide problem -

An Arkansas doctor, T. Atiq helped his former patients face the New Year with less debts(债务), voiding(使无效)more than $650,000 of unpaid medical bills for those once under his care.

Rockefeller Cancer Institute, part of the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences. His patients safely transitioned to a hospital to continue their cancer care.
Dr. Atiq feels his act of kindness was a small gesture in comparison to what his patients have given to him over the years."The courage and resilience(适应力)that I have learned from my patients are invaluable,"he says ."The issue is their health. I am hoping that they can be cured of cancer. Or, it is controlled well to where they are living productive, happy lives with their families, their friends, and their loved ones."
(1)、What did Dr. Atiq do for his former patients?A、He paid off all their debts. B、He forgave them their debts. C、He made invitation cards for them.

Changing Coastlines
Coastlines are places where land meets sea, and they are always changing. Every few seconds, waves hit the shore (海岸), wearing the land away or shaping it into new forms. Also, human activities have made Earth warmer. As temperatures rise, ice caps and glaciers melt (冰川融化), adding more water to the oceans. This causes sea levels to rise, bringing greater changes to coastlines.
Sliding away (滑坡)
Cliffs (悬崖) may look strong, but huge parts sometimes slide into the sea. Rain is taken in by soil and rock at the top, making the ground heavier. Waves hit the cliff, making it weaker. Over time, the cliff becomes weaker still, until finally it falls down.
Caves, arches, and stacks
A headland is rocky land sticking out into the sea. Wind and water work together to slowly shape it. Caves form when waves wear away (磨损) cracks in the cliff face. A cave might break through the rock and form an arch. Some arches keep growing until they cannot support themselves. They then fall down, creating a stack.

Beach on the move
Wind pushes waves to break onto the shore at an angle (角度). The waves carry sand and small stones onto the beach. As the waves move back, they pull sand back too. Over time, the sand is moved along the beach and spread further. This is called longshore drift.
Land under water
Every year, the sea level rises by about 4.5mm. Even a small rise can cause large areas of land to be covered with water. Over time, more and more people are forced to move further inland because their homes are flooded.
Keeping the water back
Sea walls are built along the shore to protect land from strong waves. However, they are expensive to build and may stop local wildlife from moving freely along the natural coast. As a coastal city, Qingdao has been building a stronger coastal protection system to protect both human beings and nature.

Every summer, many visitors come to admire, photograph and paint lotus flowers. Lotus flowers come in several different colors and usually grow in wetlands or mud. They can also live in different places as long as their roots remain in water or mud.
In China, admiring the lotus has a long history. It is not only a viewing activity, but also carries the cultural spirit that has lived in Chinese people's hearts for thousands of years. As early as the Spring and Autumn Period, poets began to praise the beauty of lotus flowers and use them to express feelings in The Book of Songs, the first collection of poems in China. Poets in the Southern Dynasties sang folk songs such as "Rowing a boat to pick the lotus in the South Lake in autumn". The word "love" is not in any sentence, but each line is filled with love. Zhou Dunyi, a famous poet in the Song Dynasty, praised the elegance (优雅) and integrity (正直) of the lotus in his essay Ode to the Lotus (《爱莲说》), which has been passed down for centuries.
The lotus is also known as "a treasure all over". The lotus roots are sweet and rich in vitamins (维生素). They often appear on Chinese dining tables and are cooked in different ways. The lotus leaves and seeds are often used in teas and medicines. They are believed to support healthy blood pressure.
Nowadays, admiring lotus flowers is no longer an activity that only belongs to Chinese people. More and more foreigners are becoming interested in the culture of the lotus. They are promoting (促进) cultural exchanges and spreading Chinese culture across the world in their ways.
