More 【3】(severe), many of them had terrible chilblains (冻疮) in the ears. On the Winter Festival, he cooked food named Jiao Er 【4】 a stuffing (馅）of medicine and other ingredients resisting the cold to feed these people, and they recovered soon.

Nowadays, there are different 【5】 (custom) in southern and northern China. As a popular saying goes in northern China that "Have dumplings for Winter Solstice and noodles for Summer Solstice." Dumplings have been 【6】 must for this winter festival. If you happen to be in China on the day, go to the restaurant early, 【7】 there will be no dumplings left.

However, sweet dumplings are 【8】 (popular) for locals in south China. In their mind, the round shape of sweet dumplings 【9】 (symbolize) a family reunion. Besides, it's said that in some areas, people also have mutton, noodles or drink winter wine for 【10】 (celebrate).

【题目】 The biggest safety threat facing airlines today may not be a terrorist with a gun, but the man with the portable computer in business class. In the last 15 years, pilots have reported well over 100 incidents that could have been caused by electromagnetic interference. The source of this interference remains unconfirmed, but increasingly, experts are pointing the blame at portable electronic device such as portable computers, radio and cassette players and mobile telephones.

RTCA, an organization which advises the aviation (航空) industry, has recommended that all airlines ban such devices from being used during “critical” stages of flight, particularly take-off and landing. Some experts have gone further, calling for a total ban during all flights. Currently, rules on using these devices are left up to individual airlines. And although some airlines prohibit passengers from using such equipment during take-off and landing, most are reluctant to enforce a total ban, given that many passengers want to work during flights.

The difficulty is predicting how electromagnetic fields might affect an aircraft’s computers. Experts know that portable device emit radiation which affects those wavelengths which aircraft use for navigation and communication. But, because they have not been able to reproduce these effects in a laboratory, they have no way of knowing whether the interference might be dangerous or not.

The fact that aircraft may be vulnerable to interference raises the risk that terrorists may use radio systems in order to damage navigation equipment. As worrying, though, is the passenger who can’t hear the instructions to turn off his radio because the music’s too loud.

【1】The passage is mainly about _____.

A.a new regulation for an airlines

B.the drawbacks of electronic devices

C.a possible cause of aircraft incidents

D.effective safety measures for air flight

【2】What is said about the over 100 aircraft incidents in the past 15 years?

A.They may have been caused by the damage to the radio systems.

B.They may have taken place during take-off and landing.

C.They were proved to have been caused by the passengers’ portable computers.

D.They were suspected to have resulted from electromagnetic interference.

【3】Few airlines want to impose a total ban on their passengers using electronic devices because ______.

A.they don’t believe there is such a danger as radio interference

B.the harmful effect of electromagnetic interference is yet to be proved

C.most passengers refuse to take a plane which bans the use of radio and cassette players

D.they have other effective safety measures to fall back on

【4】It can be inferred from the passage that the author _____.

A.hasn’t expressed his own opinion on this problem

B.has overestimated the danger of electromagnetic interference

C.is in favor of prohibiting passengers’ use of electronic devices completely

D.regards it as unreasonable to exercise a total ban during flight

Humor

If you see humor as an optional form of entertainment, you’re missing some of its biggest benefits: Humor makes average-looking people look cute and uninteresting people seem entertaining. Studies show that a good sense of humor even makes you seem smarter.

Best of all, humor raises your energy, and that can have an effect on everything you do at school, at work, or in your personal life. The increase of energy will even make you more willing to exercise, and that will raise your overall energy even more.

Humor also transports your mind away from your daily troubles. Humor lets you better understand life and sometimes helps you laugh at even the worst of your problems.

In my experience, most people think they have a sense of humor, and to some degree that’s true. But not all senses of humor are created equal. So I thought it would be useful to include some humor tips for everyday life.

You don’t have to be the joke teller in the group in order to show your sense of humor. You can be the one who directs the conversation to fun topics that are ripe for others to add humor. Every party needs a straight person. You’ll appear fun and funny by association.

When it comes to in-person humor, effort counts a lot. When people see you trying to be funny, it frees them to try it themselves. So even if your own efforts at humor fall short, you might be freeing the long kept humor in others. People need permission to be funny in social settings because there’s always a risk that comes with humor. For in-person humor, quality isn’t as important as you might think. Your attitude and effort count a lot.

Some people--and I was one of them--believe that humorous complaints about the little problems of life make humor, and sometimes that is the case. The problem comes when you start doing too much complaint-based humor. One funny observation about problem in your life can be funny, but five is just complaining, no matter how smart you think you are. Funny complaints can wear people out.

Self-deprecating(自嘲式) humor is usually the safest type, but here again you don’t want to overshoot the target. One self-deprecating comment is a generous and even confident form of humor. You have to be at least a bit self-assured to laugh at yourself in front of others. But if you do it too often, you can transform in the eyes of others from a confident joker to a Chihuahua dog.

Humor
Benefits of humor	●Humor is form of 【1】. Humor can improve one’s【2】 and personality. ●Humor can make one 【3】 in his work, study, and life. ●Humor has a positive【4】 effect when we are in difficulties.
【5】to follow	●【6】 others for a conversation of fun is as good as telling a joke yourself when showing your sense of humor. ●Quality counts 【7】 than attitude and effort-even stupid joke can 【8】 others of risk and embarrassment.
Traps to 【9】	●One humorous complaint makes funny person. But too many complaints will 【10】 your audience. ●Self-deprecating comments show one’s assurance. But too much deprecation will make a Chihuahua dog.

I enjoy spend Sundays in a local forest park. I go there at the least twice a month because every visit is one-of-a-kind. The most attractive part of the visits are the unpredictability.

Now, even I am in senior high school, with lots of school tasks, I still took time to breathe the clean air in the forest on my spare time.

【题目】 We assume exercise improves our mental health. But what kind of exercise works best? Researchers analyzed the effect of different types of exercise. They looked at the link between physical activities and mental health and found team sports were the best, followed by cycling, either on the road or a stationary bike. Physical activities typically performed in groups, such as team sports and gym classes, provided greater benefits than running or walking.

Researchers rated mental health based on a survey. It asked respondents how many days in the previous month their mental health was “not good” due to stress, depression or problems withemotions. People who played team sports like soccer and basketball reported 22.3% fewer poor mental-health days than those who didn’t exercise. Those who ran or jogged fared 19% better, while those who did household chores 11.8% better.

They found team sports may have an extra benefit because of the social component, and yoga or tai chi can promote mindfulness, which is often touted as beneficial for mental health.

The researchers also found that those who exercise between 30 and 60 minutes had the best mental health, with 45 minutes the optimal duration. Exercising three to five times a week correlated with fewer dark days. “Over 90 minutes of exercise and there isn’t an extra benefit,” Dr. Chekroud said.

The study analyzed the exercise habits and mental health of 1.2 million US adults, based on self-reported answers to survey questions from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. It wasn’t a randomized controlled study and just an association between exercise and better mental health. It can’t explain if poor mental health causes people to exercise less or exercise causes people to have better mental health.

【1】Which exercise will best help to cheer up the depressed?

A.Running and jogging outdoors.B.Playing soccer and basketball.

C.Doing some household chores.D.Cycling or riding a stationary bike.

【2】What do the researchers say about team sports?

C.They involve interaction.D.They help achieve goals.

【3】What Dr. Chekroud said means that_______.

A.more exercise isn’t always better

B.exercise habits decide mental health

C.exercise leads to better mental health

D.mental health causes people to exercise

【4】What can be a suitable title for the text?

A.What sports work best for mental health?B.More exercise, better mental health!

C.Less exercise, poor mental health!D.What is the good effect of exercise?
