Reading newspapers has become an important part of everyday life. Some people read newspapers as the first thing to do in the morning;others read newspapers as soon as they have free time during the day so that they can learn what is happening in the world. Sometimes,we do not have enough time to read all the news carefully,so we just take a quick look at the front page.At other times,we may be in such a hurry that we only have a few minutes to look at the headlines of the passages.

Newspapers can be found everywhere in the world. We can get many different kinds of newspapers in big cities,but in some mountain villages we can see few newspapers.

Some newspapers are published once a week,but most of the papers are published once a day with many pages,some even published twice a day.

You know different people enjoy reading different newspapers. Some like world news and others prefer short stories. They just choose what they are interested in.

Some of the factors which make our lifestyle unhealthy are as follows：

Too much junk food is being put into our hands especially in children's hands. Junk food which is full of fat increases blood cholesterol(胆固醇) levels and increases the risk of heart disease and some cancers.

Life is full of stress. Modern life is full of trouble,deadlines. Work can be stressful,whether in an office,a factory,or a school. For many people,stress is everywhere and it has become a way of life.

Western culture is generally dependent on medical drugs and people don't know that medical drugs’ side effects are dangerous to their health. In the world today,many people seem to think that they just want medicines and drugs to solve their health problems;they believe they can always ask medicine for help. But what they do not know is that these medications may have potential adverse reactions (潜在的不良反应) . Some drugs are harmful to your liver and do crazy things to your health;perhaps you have those little poisons without considering what they are doing to your body.

Exposure to pollution and toxic wastes such as poisonous agents from the household items does harm to your health. Our bodies are absorbing (吸收) the harmful chemicals surrounding the environment today. It is thus imperative that we clean up our living environment as much as possible. Those regular detergents,soaps,shampoos,toothpastes and perfumes that we use today contain many chemicals which are toxic to our bodies,some even carcinogenic.

Less exercise. Exercise always improves our health level. There is no doubt about it. But we don’t exercise enough. We are too busy.

Beijing is an old capital city developing at a fast pace. The Forbidden City is the ideal place for you to begin your exploration of Beijing by opening its mysterious (神奇的) face. With over 9 ,000 rooms and over 250 acres (英亩) ，this large palace building was built between 1406 and 1420. The Forbidden City burned down and was rebuilt,sacked and renovated (修复) for times,so most of the architecture (建筑) you can see today dates back to the 18th century in the Qing Dynasty. Make sure to wear comfortable shoes as you have to walk a lot!

There is a Starbucks in the palace in case you need some coffee to recharge you. I highly recommend you to have a guide. It is quite helpful to have a guide escort (护送) you and tell the stories behind the palace. If you are a non-group tourist,I suggest you rent a multilingual guide recorder either at Meridian Gate (southern gate of Forbidden City) or the Gate of Divine Prowess (Northern gate of Forbidden City) and return it when you finish your Forbidden City Tour.

There is a fish called the black spot angelfish,which can change from female (雌性) to male (雄性) . No,it cannot do it by simply wishing to become male. The change happens for a specific reason.

The angelfish live in groups. And each group has one male fish,which is blue in color,and four female fish,which are yellow in color.

The male angelfish is the strongest and largest member of the group. He is the one who protects and looks after the females and acts like their “safety guard”. When the male dies,the group needs a “safety guard”. This is when the largest female fish in the group begins to change its appearance.

She begins to grow larger in size. After a week,she starts changing color,from yellow to blue. Slowly? the changes take place. She begins behaving like a male. Two weeks later,black spots appear on her body. This shows that the change is complete. She is now completely male!

Another interesting fact about angelfish is that they make a special living in the fish world. Most of them act as “cleaners” for other fish. They pick parasites (寄生生物) and dead things from the body of other fish.

Who is the one that helps me grow up,gives me advice,takes care of me,shows me the right way,always supports me greatly,gives me a birthdate and does many many things just for me? It's my mother. I love her and really admire her for many reasons.

Perhaps,the thing makes me admire her the most is that she is the first teacher of mine. She has been teaching me everything since I was young until now,and for the future. I remember that the first foreign language I learned from her was Russian. I could speak some simple words in Russian when I was just 5 years old such as “hello”，“goodbye”. At that time,I wrote a poem about the ant and my mom. Of course,she was the first person listening to me.

Now,she is still a best friend. I think she is the greatest psychologist that I have known. Sometimes when I was down because of failures in my life,I would go to meet her to ask for some advice. As I expect,I always felt better after that.

I also admire her for her personality which is a mix of honesty and strong faith in god,cause and effect. “ Take us by ourselves into others’ position before doing anything ,” she said And she is also a predictor. She can know the future in her dreams. She ever told me that she had found out my father before seeing him. Besides,she was sure that I would be a boy before getting pregnant. Oh my god!It's strange. I can not do the same thing.

There is a woman who plays an important part in my life and changes my thoughts and actions. I really love my mother. I think I am the happiest person because I have a great mother like her. How do you think of vour mother?

We often ask for information or help,especially when we visit a foreign country. So knowing how to ask for information politely is important. In English ,“Where are the restrooms?” and “Could you please tell me where the restrooms are?” are correct English,but the first could sound rude. It's important to use correct language,but sometimes we need to learn how to be polite.

In English,just like in Chinese,we change the way we speak when talking with different people. If you say to your teacher ,“Where is my book?” This will sound rude. But if you say ,“Excuse me,Mr West. Do you know where my book is?^ Your question will sound much more polite. Of course it might be all right to say “Where is my book?” in some situations,perhaps with people you know well.

“Peter,give me your pen. ”can sound rude in English. Usually in English,polite questions are longer such as “Could you please. or “Can I ask. It sounds more polite to say. “Peter,could you please give me your pen?,? Sometimes we might even need to spend some time when you stop a stranger in the street. We might first say ,“Excuse me. Can you help me?” or “I'm sorry to trouble you but. .. ”before asking them for help.

It might seem that speaking politely is more difficult than being direct (直接) . However,if you want to be a polite person,you should learn about language etiquette (规矩) . It is just as important as learning grammar or vocabulary. And doing this will also help you become better at English,or any other language you wish to speak.(北京市朝阳区)

Honey from the African forest is not only a kind of natural sugar, it is also delicious. Most people, and many animals, like eating it. However, the only way for them to get that honey is to find a wild bees' nest and take the honey from it. Often, these nests are high up in trees, and it is difficult to find them. In parts of Africa, though, people and animals looking for honey have a strange and unexpected helper----a little bird called a honey guide.

The honey guide does not actually like honey, but it does like the wax in the beehives (蜂房). The little bird cannot reach this wax, which is deep inside the bees' nest. So, when it finds a suitable nest, it looks for someone to help it. The honey guide gives a loud cry that attracts the attention of both passing animals and people. Once it has their attention, it flies through the forest, waiting from time to time for the curious animal or person as it leads them to the nest. When they finally arrive at the nest, the follower reaches in to get at the delicious honey as the bird patiently waits and watches. Some of the honey, and the wax, always falls to the ground, and this is when the honey guide takes its share.

Scientists do not know why the honey guide likes eating the wax, but it is very determined in its efforts to get it. The birds seem to be able to smell wax from a long distance away. They will quickly arrive whenever a beekeeper is taking honey from his beehives, and will even enter churches when beeswax candles are being lit.

A. It's small in size.

B. It's hidden in trees.

C. It's covered with wax.

D. It's hard to recognize.

2.What do the underlined words "the follower" in Paragraph 2 refer to?

A. A bee. B. A bird.

C. A honey seeker. D. A beekeeper.

3.The honey guide is special in the way .
