1、You may have experienced the feeling. Your mouth feels like it is on fire. Your eyes start to water. You just ate one of nature's hottest foods—the chilli pepper (辣椒)!
Chilli peppers, also called chillies, are found in dishes around the world. Chillies come from the capsicum plant (辣椒属植物). They are "hot" because they contain something called capsaicin (辣椒素).

Capsaicin is very good for your health. It helps you breathe better, and it may even help keep you fit. Capsaicin makes you feel less hungry. It also makes your body burn more calories.
We can measure the heat (辣度) of chillies in units called Scoville Heat Units (SHU). The world's hottest chilli is the Carolina Reaper. It sometimes measures up to 2 million SHU!
Eating a hot chilli can be uncomfortable, but some people love to eat it. In 2009, Anandita Dutta Tamuly, a woman from Assam, India, became famous for eating chillies. She ate 51 hot peppers in just two minutes! The peppers were Nag a Jolokia ("Ghost Peppers"). They grow in Assam and are one of the hottest chillies in the world.

In our English class last week, our teacher showed us a video on WeChat Channels named "This Perspective-taking (换位思考) Experiment Silenced the Whole Class". This video left a 1 impression (印象) on me.
The video started with a simple experiment. The teacher placed a ball on the table and asked two students to describe its 2 . One said it was white, 3 the other insisted (坚持) it was black. They argued, thinking the other was completely wrong. Then, the teacher asked them to change their positions. Surprisingly, their opinions 4 immediately. "You see." the teacher said, "you were both right, just looking from different 5 ." In fact, the ball has 6 colors, with one side white and the other black. This simple experiment made everyone in the class fall 7 , including me.
8 watching this video, I found it hard to 9 my classmates. I often had different opinions with them, but didn't know how to 10 clearly. Therefore, I seldom understood them and even argued with them. For example, during a group project, I once strongly believed my idea was the 11 and didn't listen to others. 12 , our group work didn't go well. However, I thought my classmates made mistakes. But after this experiment, I realize that everyone has their own opinions and strengths. 13 I consider right may not be the same for others.
This video taught me a valuable lesson: putting 14 in others' shoes can help us better understand others and 15 our friendship.

18、 阅读下面短文,掌握其大意,然后从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
①Taking notes is a common but useful study skill. But if your notes are messy and unclear, you're not going to get much use out of them. Now we'll show you how to make your notes as effective (有效的) as possible.
②First, you should be an active listener. When taking notes, many students write down every word, but they don't really understand its meaning. This is totally wrong. While you're in class, the most important thing is to listen carefully and understand what your teacher is saying instead of just writing it down.
③Take down only key words to help you review what you have learned after class. Usually, your writing speed falls far behind of your teacher's speaking speed. It's unrealizable for you to write down every word the teacher is saying. Taking down just key words helps you save time and keep up with the teacher.
④What your notes look like is also important. If your notes are messy and difficult to read, you will be less likely to go back to studying them. So make sure your notes are clear and easy to read. Many people like to add some colors to the notes to make the information easier to read. This is because colors make your notes look more interesting and clearer.
⑤Having good class notes will help you to be better prepared for tests.
(1)、According to the writer what is the most important thing in class?A、Doing homework carefully. B、Answering questions actively. C、Writing down the teacher's words. D、Understanding the teacher's words.(2)、Why do many people like to add colors to the notes?A、To make the notes beautiful. B、To improve note-taking skills. C、To develop creativity in note-taking. D、To make the information easy to read.(3)、What would be the best structure of the text?A、
B、
C、
D、
(4)、What is the passage mainly about?A、How to be an active listener. B、How to review notes effectively. C、How to take effective notes. D、How to develop good study habits. -
