Suzie goes to her art class on Tuesday and Thursday afternoons. She always looks forward to those days when she can do creative things all afternoon. She loves making bowls and cups out of clay（粘土）.

Last month she learned to put pottery(陶器) into a hot oven（炉子）, called a kiln, to make it hard and strong. What Suzie likes best about art is the good feeling she gets when she has finished working on a piece of art. And then when she takes it home to show her parents she feels so proud of what she has made.

On Wednesday Suzie wrote an article about why she thought the school should have two short breaks a day rather than one long break. Lots of her friends thought that this would be a good idea too. Many teachers also agreed with Suzie’s suggestion.

The head teacher of the school asked everyone in the school to vote（表决）on Suzie’s suggestion. During the vote, each person in the school had one vote. Together, the school decided that two short breaks would be better than one long break. All of this happened because Suzie wrote about her idea in the school newspaper.

On the day the newspaper comes out, the first thing Suzie does is to check where her article is in the newspaper. And each month, at the beginning of her article, are the words: By Suzanne Jefferson.

On the way home from school yesterday, Suzie got to think about how much art and writing are the same. In art class she thinks of creative things to make, and then spends a lot of time making it look just right.

And when she writes articles for the school newspaper, she thinks of creative things to say, and then spends a lot of time making it sound just right. And when she has finished writing a really good sentence, she feels almost as if she has made a beautiful piece of art.

Suzie rushed home so she could write something shortly before dinner. She already had lots of ideas for next month’s newspaper. And she wanted to make sure that none of her creative ideas floated away before she wrote them down on paper

How much do you know about Earth—the planet that we live on? Our knowledge of Earth has been developing since ancient times. However, many puzzles (谜) about Earth remain unsolved. Live Science has published a list of the eight biggest mysteries about Earth. Let’s look at some of them.

Where did water come from?

When it first came into being 4.5 billion years ago, Earth was a dry rock. So where did all of our water come from? Scientists think that it might have arrived in the form of ice by an asteroid (小行星) from outer space that hit our planet. But this idea has not been confirmed (证明) because there is very little related evidence(相关证据) to be studied.

What’s in the core (地核)?

Scientists used to study meteorites (陨石) as small examples of Earth, believing that Earth’s core was made of iron and nickel (镍). However, a later study in the 1950s proved this way to be wrong because it found that Earth would be too light to provide gravity (引力) if its core contained only iron and nickel. Today, scientists continue to bring forward different ideas, but none have been confirmed.

How was the moon born?

Scientists have found that the chemical compositions (成分) of Earth and the Moon are very similar. That suggests that the Moon actually came from Earth. For example, it could be a piece of Earth that separated when Earth hit another planet. It is also possible that when Earth first came into being, it spun (旋转) very fast and threw off enough molten (熔化的) rock to later form the Moon.

1.What’s the main idea of the passage?

A.How Earth came into being.

B.Where Earth’s water came from?

C.How the moon was formed?

D.Unexplained mysteries about Earth.

2.What do we know about where water may come from?

A.Earth’s water may come from ice that melted 4.5 billion years ago.

B.Earth’s water may come from a small planet that hit Earth.

C.We don’t know where water came from.

D.There is lots of evidence that tells us where water came from.

3.What does the underlined phrase “bring forward” in Paragraph 5 probably mean?

A.Check B.Raise

C.Improve D.Receive

4.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?

A.Scientists used to believe Earth’s core was made of meteorites.

B.A study in the 1950s proved that Earth’s core is made of iron and nickel.

C.The moon and Earth are made of similar materials.

D.Three possibilities of where the Moon came from are mentioned.

A.By bike. B.By school bus. C.On foot.

A.Well, I hope so. B.Sure, I will. C.Oh, I forgot it.

Two more American universities, Adelphi University in New York, and Louisiana State University, have begun accepting scores from China’s national college entrance exam, or gaokao, in order to attract more Chinese students.

This means Chinese students no longer need to take the SAT, ACT or TOEFL. However, Chinese students must find ways to show their English skills. If they want to take part in Adelphi's international program and Louisiana State University’s global program, they must first finish eight weeks of English-language lessons, starting in October. After passing the exam, they can start their first year at one of the universities.

Since 2015, US universities have more accepted gaokao scores as part of the application(申请) process for Chinese students, but they still need either a basic English test score or to pass an interview.

“Chinese students at the university have achieved better grades than their US classmates, and that’s why we prefer students from China,” Shawn O’Riley, leader of the College said. “We have around 300 Chinese students and plan to increase the number. We also offer scholarship, from $5,000 to $15,000 depending on their gaokao score.”

Todd Ellwein, the director of Louisiana State University’s global program, said students who get high scores in the gaokao are not only the best students in China but also the world. The gaokao is a good way of choosing good students, and a high score in the exam means good basic knowledge, patience and a strong ability to deal with high pressure and compete with others.

Shi Yan, from Chivast Education International, said many universities in Hong Kong, Europe, Australia and Canada, have already made the gaokao an admission criterion(录取标准), too.

1.When do the English-language lessons in these two universities begin?

A.In October. B.In November. C.In September.

2.Why do some US universities like Chinese students better?

A.Because they are usually smarter in the universities.

B.Because their grades are better than the US classmates’.

C.Because they find ways to show their English skills.

3.What does the underlined word “scholarship” mean in Chinese?

A.学者 B.学业 C.奖学金

4.According to the passage, a high score means a lot EXCEPT ________.

A.high pressure B.good basic knowledge C.much patience

5.The purpose of the passage is________.

A.to introduce China’s national college entrance exam, gaokao

B.to encourage more young people to enter American universities

C.to tell people the growing popularity of gaokao around the world

More and more people are learning Information Technology ________ they can serve the Belt and Road.
