5、When we talk about Hangzhou, we must think of the West Lake. In fact, Hangzhou Xixi National Wetland Park and Yuhang oil paper umbrellas have already got much attention (关注).
Hangzhou Xixi National Wetland Park, in the west of Hangzhou,founded in 2005, is China's first national wetland park. The park is only 5 kilometers away from the West Lake. With an area of 11.5 square kilometers, almost 70% of the park is water. There are 6 long rivers and the waterways inside the park are more than 100 kilometers long. About 85% of the land in Xixi is covered by many kinds of trees. It is becoming a must-visit in Hangzhou.
As for Yuhang oil paper umbrellas, they have a history of more than 230 years. The traditional way of making them has been seen as a Zhejiang Intangible Cultural Heritage (非物质文化遗产) since 2007. These paper umbrellas come from Yuhang. That's why people call them Yuhang oilpaper umbrellas.
Liu Weixue, 32, is the grandson of Liu Youquan, the inheritor (继承者) of the umbrella. He loves this traditional culture and his grandfather makes a big difference to him. So Liu Weixue gave up his job and began to design (设计), make and sell Yuhang paper umbrellas with his students.
"It's not easy to make an umbrella — more than 70 steps, but we should pass down the traditional culture," Liu said.

6、Qingming Festival (Tomb Sweeping Day) is a traditional Chinese festival for families to show respect to their ancestors. People visit their ancestors' grave sites (祖先墓地) and offer food, drinks and flowers. The festival falls on the fourth day of April this year. There are some Chinese poems that offer clues about Chinese festivals. Here we look at one ofthem.

Mourning Day
Drizzling rain falls like tears on the Mourning Day,
The mourner's heart is going to break on his way.
Where can a wine shop be found to drown his sad hours?
A cowherd (牧童) points to a cot amid apricot flowers (杏花).
(Translated by Xu Yuanchong, a Chinese translator)
In China, around the time of Qingming Festival, there is more rain. The poet is traveling far away from home on these rainy days. The rain and lonely walks add a sad mood to this poem. The writer Du Mu describes a rainy scene in a village in the first two lines. Then in the last two lines, the poet wants to find a place to take a rest, drink some wine and keep away from the unhappy mood. In the last line, a cowherd points to a direction, which vividly describes two people looking far ahead on the rainy day.
In this poem, Du Mu presents a village with apricot flowers around. He doesn't describe its details on a rainy day but leaves room for the readers to imagine.
Qingming is not only a sad festival, but it can also be a happy time for people to enjoy the spring and get closer to nature. Trees are green and flowers are blooming, so it's a good time to be outside.
(1)、The underlined word "them" refers to "________" in the passage.A、festivals B、poems C、clues D、poets(2)、From the last two lines ofMourning Day, we can know the poet is ________.A、angry B、excited C、worried D、sad(3)、Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A、Qingming Festival is a traditional Chinese festival for friends to get together. B、Qingming Festival is on April 5th this year. C、The writer of the poem named Mourning Day is Du Mu. D、Qingming is only a sad festival for people.(4)、The passage above can probably be read in ________.A、World News B、Folk Culture C、Science Study D、Sports Events -
7、Once Louis the Twelfth, the King of France, happened to walk into the kitchen of his palace. There he found a small boy busy at work and singing happily.
The boy had bright eyes, and a happy, sunny face, and his looks and manners (举止) pleased the king. With a smile, Louis asked him his name. He replied that his name was Simon. Later, the king learnt that the boy was an orphan (孤儿).
"Are you content to do this kind of work?" the king asked, pointing at the bowls that the boy was washing. "Are you willing to spend your time in the kitchen with so many bowls to wash?"
"Why not?" answered the boy, with a twinkle in his eye. "I am doing as well as the best of them. The king himself can do no better."
"Indeed!" said the king, no little surprised at the boy's words. "How do you know that?"
"Well, sir, the king lives, and so do I. I am satisfied with my life. Can the king say that he is satisfied with his life?"
Louis walked away, his mind full of strange and sad thoughts. No one knew better than he did that kings seldom feel content.
The next day, much to Simon's surprise, he was called before the king. He was surprised when he found that his visitor of the day before was Louis himself. The king talked with him about many things, and found him to be a very quick and clever boy.
After that, Simon was made to serve the king directly. Step by step, he rose from one important task to another, until he became one of the best soldiers of that time. He is known in history as General La Roche, and considered as one of the greatest men of France.
Early in his life, if Simon had not learnt to be content with his life, he might never have been given those chances. The king did not want people who were always unhappy. We should learn that only those who are content are happy.
(1)、What did Simon do before he met the king?A、He sang in the king's palace. B、He served in the king's army. C、He worked in the king's kitchen. D、He guarded the king's palace.(2)、What does the underlined word "content" mean here in Chinese?A、满足的 B、幸运的 C、欠缺的 D、无聊的(3)、Which of the following is the correct order about Simon?①He served the king directly. ②He found the visitor was the king.
③He became one of the best soldiers. ④He had a chat with a visitor in the kitchen.
⑤He is a well-known man in French history.
A、①②⑤③④ B、④②⑤①③ C、③④②①⑤ D、④②①③⑤(4)、What can we learn from the story?A、Being content makes us happy. B、Working hard can lead to success. C、It's important to be kind to others. D、Children are always more honest. -

18、Maybe you are an ordinary student. This is not necessarily so. Anyone can become a better student if he or she wants to. Here's how:
Plan your time carefully.When planning your work, you should make a list of things that you have to do. After making this list, you should make a schedule(进度表)of your time. First arrange(安排)your time for eating, sleeping, dressing, etc. Then decide a good regular(有规律的)time for studying. It's also important to relax. A weekly schedule may not solve all your problems, but it will help you realize what is happening to your time.
Make good use of your time in class. Listening carefully in class means less work later. Taking notes will help you remember what the teacher says.
Study regularly. When you get home from school, go over your notes, review the important points that your teacher is going to discuss the next day, read that material. If you do these things regularly, the material will become more meaningful, and you will remember it longer.
The purpose of a test is to show what you have learned about a subject. The world won't end if you don't pass a test, so don't be overworried.
There are other ways that might help you with your study. You will probably discover many others after you have tried these.
A. These will help you understand the next class.
B. You probably think you will never be a top student.
C. Don't forget to set aside enough time for entertainment(娱乐).
D. No one can become a top student unless he or she works hard.
E. Develop a good attitude(态度)towards tests.
F. Take advantage of class time to listen to everything the teacher says.

19、Long ago, before air conditioners (空调) appeared, ancient Chinese people already had smart ways to stay cool in the hot summer. One way was using a vegetable called winter melon. People would put the winter melon into cold water during the day and then hold it close to keep cool while sleeping at night.
Although the vegetable has the word "winter" in its name, it actually grows in summer. It has about 96% water, and its skin (皮) feels cooler than our body. When people touch it, the melon helps take away their body heat, just like a natural air conditioner. What's more, the winter melon is very big—it can grow to be over 80 cm long. And it has a waxy coating (蜡质涂层) that helps keep it fresh for a long time. So people can save it for later use. That's why the winter melon is a smart and useful tool for staying cool.
Besides cooling people down, the vegetable is also great to eat. In Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), the winter melon is a cool food. It is beneficial for people's health because it can take away heat and dampness (湿气) from the body. So, many people enjoy it in summer to stay healthy and cool.
In a word, the winter melon is a helpful and popular plant. It not only helps people feel comfortable in hot weather but also does good to people's health. Even today, it plays an important part in people's lives.
(1)、What is Paragraph 1 mainly about?A、When air conditioners appeared in China. B、Why ancient people liked green vegetables. C、How ancient Chinese people stayed cool in hot days. D、What ancient people did with winter melons in winter.(2)、What do we know about the winter melon from Paragraph 2?A、It can grow in cold weather. B、It is small and easy to carry. C、It can stay fresh for a long time. D、It has a special coating to stay warm.(3)、What does the underlined word "beneficial" in Paragraph 3 mean in Chinese?A、秘密的 B、有利的 C、合理的 D、新颖的 -
20、Once when I was a child, my father and I went to buy tickets for the circus (马戏团). Finally, there was only one family standing together in front of us. They had eight children. Their clothes were not dirty but very old. Their children were excitedly talking about the clowns (小丑), elephants and other acts in the circus.
After the ticket woman told them the price, the man shook his head and there was no smile on the man's face. The man didn't have enough money.
Seeing what was happening, my dad put his hand into his pocket (口袋), pulled out a $20 bill and dropped (丢) it on the ground, though we weren't rich. Then he called the man back, picked up the bill and said, "Excuse me, Sir, this fell out of your pocket."
The man knew what was going on. He looked into my dad's eyes, held my dad's hand in his and took the $20 bill. With tears in his eyes, he replied, "Thank you, Sir. This is important to me and my family."
