As teenagers grow up, it can be easy for them to form bad habits. These bad habits, if left unchecked, could lead to more serious ones. So teenagers must learn to recognize bad habits early and make proper changes.
To change bad habits is never easy. We make a choice to do something, and then we repeat it over and over again. Soon that choice forms a habit that is much harder to change. We can change, if we understand how habits work.
We must first learn about the"habit cycle", which works like this: Firstly, there is a"cue", an action or situation that acts as a signal(信号) to do something. Secondly, there is a"routine", the regular(有规律的) action you take in response(反应) to the cue. Thirdly, there is the"reward", the good thing or feeling we get from the routine.
For example, when we feel unhappy(cue), we eat lots of unhealthy food(routine), which makes us feel happy(reward). Then the bad habit of depending on unhealthy snacks is formed.
To change our bad habits, we must first examine our habit cycles and then try to change them. So, when we feel unhappy again, rather than eat unhealthy food, we could listen to some of our favourite music instead, which will make us feel relaxed.
Many of us try to change bad habits instantly, and if we are not successful right away, we often give up. In fact, the most successful way to change is not sudden, but takes more time. A person must take many small steps to change a bad habit.
For young people, there is plenty of time to change bad habits. But you have to think about your bad habits and decide on some changes. You have the power to build a happy and healthy life full of good habits!

(2)、What can we learn from the passage?A、Repeating something can only form a good habit. B、Improving the routine of the habit cycle helps to create good habits. C、Young people can change habits easily because they don't have enough time.(3)、What does the underlined word"instantly" mean?A、Politely. B、Carefully. C、Quickly.(4)、What is the best title for the text?A、The Importance of Forming Good Habits B、Suggestions for Young People's Lifestyles C、How to Change Bad Habits for a Healthy Life(5)、In which unit of a textbook can the text be found?A、Unit 1 Healthy Lifestyle B、Unit 2 Sports and Health C、Unit 3 Family and Friends -

It's 5:30 a. m. and your phone rings. A police officer says someone broke into a store and took some expensive items. They need you right away. It is your job to study the whole scene for clues that will help catch the thief(小偷). You are a crime scene investigator(调查者), and the game is on.
Outside the store, you see a broken window, but there is no glass on the street. There are shoe prints,and marks made by a vehicle' s tires. You look at the shoe prints. They're large, so you're likely looking for a man. You photograph the shoe's pattern. This can tell you the type of shoe. You then measure the space between the shoe prints. You now know how long the person's steps were. This gives you an idea of how tall the thief was.
As you follow the shoe prints over to the tire marks, the spaces between the steps get bigger. They lead to the passenger' s side of the vehicle(车辆). Now you know the thief probably didn't work alone. You photograph the tire marks. They can help you find out the type of vehicle and the direction it went.
The most important clues will come from a person's body. You find some fingerprints near the broken window. Using a computer, you can compare these prints against millions of others. You also find a hair.You keep it, because you know hair contains a person's DNA. You can compare this with other people's DNA, too. If you find a match for the fingerprint or the DNA, you will know who was in the store.

15、任务型阅读。根据短文内容,按要求回答问题。
Fostering(暂时抚养) a pet needs a person who has a big heart and is willing to love and care for a pet.Although they will have to say goodbye one day, they still want to take on the responsibility.
In January 2013,I had three dogs of my own and one foster dog, Rockstar, from our local shelter(收容所), BARCS. The shelter was running out of space, so I decided to take in another foster dog. That's when I met Betsy. Betsy was a friendly dog, enjoying playtime with others, especially with her deflated(泄气的)basketball toy. The day I took her home, she seemed to smile the entire(整个的) car ride.
Betsy quickly became close to my family, especially my son. They loved playing ball and frisbee(飞盘)together. Betsy was full of energy and brought so much joy to our home with her enthusiasm(热情) for life.
At the same time, we started marketing her. Within two weeks, Jason, who had lost one of his dogs, fell in love with her picture and took her home.
Betsy has been a wonderful addition(新成员) to Jason's family, getting along well with his other dogs and even his cat. He takes her on daily walks and even hikes, and I get to see frequent(频繁的) updates of her happy life on Facebook. Betsy's story shows how a foster home can help a great dog find its perfect forever family.
(1)、What kind of person may foster a pet? (less than 20 words)(2)、Why did the writer decide to take in another foster dog in January 2013? (less than 20 words)(3)、How many dogs did the writer have after fostering Betsy? (no more than 3 words)(4)、What does Betsy's story show to us? (less than 20 words)(5)、Do you want to foster a pet? Why or why not? (less than 20 words) -
16、 完成图表。根据短文内容,完成图表中所缺信息。
Do you have any siblings(兄弟姐妹) or cousins? Do you get along well with each other? How do you think siblings can support each other in their lives? Here is my story with my brother Matthew.
"Are you okay?" Matthew asked from the driver's seat as we hung upside down, trapped(被困在) by our seat belts and covered in sand. I felt the blood rushing to my head, my heart pounding(怦怦跳) like the loud bass(低音吉他) in a car. It reminded me of the four bass-loving brothers who lived across from us growing up. As a little girl, I often wondered if Matthew and I would ever have their friendship.
When Matthew found out he was to have a baby brother, he was over the moon. But to everyone's surprise, "It's a girl!" His disappointment was clear. As soon as I could walk, my big brother was everything to me. But to him, I was an annoying girl, though he found comfort in playing tricks on me.
The sibling relationship is unique, and it's often the longest relationship we have in our lives. After learning that I missed him, Matthew unexpectedly invited me to visit him at university. In his room, he handed me a drink. We didn't need many words; as siblings, we had a simple way of chatting. He knew about my struggles—— the family secrets—— and became my rock.
Years later, when I was excluded(阻止参加) from the family Thanksgiving, he refused to attend without me. Instead, we had dinner—— just the two of us.
My big brother, once a tormentor (折磨者), had become my protector and friend. But after our off-roading accident, I saw him differently.
"Are you okay? Are you bleeding?" I checked his injuries. The man I'd seen as strong was now human, fragile (脆弱的).
As we got ourselves out of the car, I realized it was time for me to be his protector. Our shared bond had grown even deeper. I looked at my big brother, and we both smiled. Without him, my life would be unimaginably different. It was my turn to protect him. Thankfully we had each other in.

17、 补全短文。根据短文内容,从短文后的A-F选项中,选出5个适当的选项补全短文。
Pets need lots of care and love from their owners. Just like you did when you were little. First, research the correct care for your animals. You can find information in books and online.
Second, find out routines. Animals like routines, and you're supposed to do things regularly, such as walking your pets, feeding your pets and giving them the care they need.
Third, take them out to exercise. Just like humans, overweight animals are more likely to have health problems and have shorter lives. For dogs, it means daily walks; for parrots, it means spending time out of the cage. Whatever it is, all animals need it. Give your pets a big area and, if possible, let them out every day or every other day to exercise and stretch their muscles.
Fourth, teach your pets simple things. Training isn't just for dogs.
Fifth, take your pets to the vet regularly. Look for a specialized vet. He can tell you all about the proper care that your pets need.
A. Of course, the term"exercise" means different things for different animals.
B. You can train your cats, rabbits, or even fish.
C. Here are some helpful tips on caring for your pets.
D. So you'd better spend some time with your pets.
E. Make sure the information you check is correct.
F. By doing this, you can make sure your pets stay in top health.

An experience in China lets me see how food can cross cultures. A Chinese friend rushed me to a Beijing restaurant to show me a delicious dish, promising something I had never seen before that would change how I thought about food forever.
It was a bowl of banmian(拌面). Although delicious, I couldn't help feeling I had tried this dish before. As I twisted(搅动) the noodles with my chopsticks, it hit me with how they look: isn't this food just Chinese Spaghetti?
I had grown up hearing stories of the Italian businessman and explorer Marco Polo bringing back noodles from his journeys in China in the 13th century. But the noodles have been taking Europe from China much earlier, with the help of European traders moving across Central Asia. British Spaghetti shows that, even after reaching Italy, the food kept changing.
The first bites of my meal made me consider the historical journey of noodles, and I was inspired to take a journey through my own history. With my father's family being Italian, spaghetti was never far away. I remember from my grandma that the only way to tell if spaghetti is cooked properly is by throwing it at the wall. If it sticks, it's ready to eat. If it falls, it still needs time to cook. I wondered if the kitchen walls at this restaurant had noodles thrown at them.
This journey to China not only allowed me to enjoy the deliciousness of food, but also deeply understand the difference and mix of culture. Every bite of the noodles tells a story of years, and I was lucky to be part of it.
(1)、Why did the writer's friend rush him to the restaurant?A、To learn to cook Chinese dishes. B、To eat a delicious Chinese dish. C、To talk about cultural differences.(2)、Why does the writer think he has tried banmian before?A、He tried it when he visited China last time. B、The food hit him because of Italian taste. C、Banmian and spaghetti have something in common.(3)、What is the structure of the passage?A、
B、
C、
(4)、Which of the following statements is TRUE?A、The writer's grandma cooks spaghetti by throwing it at the wall. B、The writer knows much about spaghetti. C、The writer is sure that the ways of checking spaghetti and noodles are similar.(5)、What might be the best title for the passage?A、Marco Polo's Journey to China B、Noodles' Changes in History C、Food Crosses Cultures -
