M:Achoo!

W: Your’re going to Machu Picchu?

M: No! That’s just me sneezing.

W: Ew! That’s terrible! Haven’t you heard “Cough and sneeze, elbows, please”?

M: wh...what? Why would I sneeze into my elbows when I can sneeze into my hands?

W: Because that is the easiest way to spread the germs!

M: I thought covering your mouth would help prevent the spreading of the germs.

W: Yes, but what happens after that? What about the things you would touch after that?

M: I hadn’t thought of that.

W: Ideally, you should use a tissue when you cough or sneeze and wash your hands later. But if you don’t have a tissue, then make sure you use your elbow to cover your mouth. And later, wash your elbow!

M: Cough and sneeze, elbows, please. I shall remember that!

W: Also, if you are in a crowd of people, cough or sneeze downwards to avoid sneezing directly at someone’s face.

M: I will remember that too when I go to Machu Picchu!

W: Are you sneezing again?

M: Not achoo, Machu Picchu.

W: Ha-ha.

【题目】 The traditional Chinese lunar calendar divides the year into 24 solar terms(节气). Major Snow, the 21st solar term of the year, begins this year on December 7 and ends on December 22. During Major Snow, the snow becomes heavy and begins to accumulate on the ground. The temperature drops significantly.1 .

Wintersweet originated in China and is highly appreciated in Chinese culture for its endurance in severe winters. With pine and bamboo, it is referred to as one of the Three Friends of Winter.

●Eating lamb

Lamb is the main food chosen by Chinese people during Major Snow.4. People in Chongqing like to have potted lamb soup or stewed(炖)lamb soup with their families and friends. Nanjing residents like to stew the lamb with yams or wolfberries to make it more nutritious.

●Preventing respiratory (呼吸系统) illness

【题目】 You may feel pressured to plan out your whole life before you start applying to colleges. 1Though some people have well-focused career goals early in life, others don't — and they still find their way to the right job. Staying flexible when it comes to thinking about your future may be the right choice for you.

The world changes.

Webmasters didn't exist a generation ago. The world changes so fast that new careers appear all the time, while others become less common. 2

There’s no one perfect career.

When choosing a career, you'll try to match your skills and interests with work in certain areas. 3 Even jobs sounding ideal will probably involve some things you dislike. But many jobs will suit you and allow you to use your talents.

You can only plan so far ahead.

4 That's because as important as planning and research are, chance still plays a role. Keep an open mind, learn to tolerate some degree of uncertainty and watch for opportunity.

5

Many people feel pulled to a job that's familiar, popular or profitable.

【题目】阅读下面短文, 根据所给情节进行续写,使之构成一个完整的故事。

It was a peaceful night. I was sleeping with my brothers, feeling warm and comfortable. Mama was sleeping nearby, covered by snow. Papa was somewhere nearby, watching over us. There was a bright moon and we had all had a good meal of venison (鹿肉) Papa had caught earlier.

Uncle Louis is coming”, Papa said. We loved Uncle Louis. He was a funny wolf, and always had interesting things to tell us and show us.

A little while later, Uncle Louis appeared. We did not approach him with respect the way we approached Papa. We flew at him, jumped all over him, and rolled him in the snow. Uncle Louis laughed and patted us with his paws. He is black all over, with yellow eyes, and he is very tall.

“It's the longest night of the year” , Uncle Louis said, “Does everyone feel like taking a run through the woods? I want to show you something unusual.”

Hearing that, Papa warned that it was dangerous to go near that pack of humans who lived in the woods.

“They are hardly dangerous”, Uncle Louis laughed, “They are so clumsy and make so much noise. They are not able to get near us--or even see us if we don't want them to. Besides, this is their special night. They are quite peaceful and won't be bothering about wolves.”

“Oh, please, Papa, let us run through the woods with Uncle Louis and see something unusual! “ We all begged.

“It is a fine night”, Papa smiled, “I must admit, I do feel like running.”

【题目】 Los Angeles is always a popular holiday destination. To fully enjoy your travel there, you should know its food, weather, and also traffic. While driving in L. A. is similar to that in other areas, there are a few specific rules to note.

HOV lanes (车道)

On many L. A. freeways, one or more lanes at the far left are used as high-occupancy vehicle (HOV) lanes. They usually have limited access and you can only enter or exit where there is a break in the double yellow line. Most HOV lanes require a minimum of two people in the car; some require three. Vehicles towing trailers (拖车) are NOT allowed in the HOV lane, regardless of how many people are in them.

Toll (收费) lanes

On certain freeways, the HOV lanes are double-purposed as toll lanes for people driving alone who have a FasTrak, an electronic toll collection system. Therefore, you also have to have one in that lane as a HOV, which is inconvenient if you’re just visiting. FasTrak is in effect on parts of the 110 freeway between the 405 and 10 freeways, and on parts of the 10 freeway east of Downtown L. A.

Cell phones

It is against the law to talk on a cell phone while driving without using a hands-free device. Holding a cell phone to your ear while driving will land you with a ticket.

Alcohol

Driving under the influence is taken seriously in L.A. The legal blood alcohol limit is 0.08%, but you can be charged with lower levels if they show you can’t function normally. Placing an opened bottle of alcohol in the passenger area while driving (or sitting) is illegal. Any opened container of alcohol has to be transported in the trunk.

1What do you know about HOV lanes?

A.They encourage people to share cars.

B.They are on the far right of freeways.

C.They are intended for larger vehicles.

D.They allow cars to enter over the double yellow line.

2Which is surely against the road rules in L. A.?

A.Driving on the 110 freeway with a FasTrak.

B.Putting the cell phone in the car while driving.

C.Riding with an opened bottle of alcohol in back seats.

D.Going below the blood alcohol limit of 0. 08%.

3Where is the text most probably taken from?

A.A traffic law.B.A road map.

C.A guidebook.D.A report.

【题目】 While studying at Jadavpur University, Banerjee wanted to find a creative and socially beneficial alternative to bricks. Along with his classmates, Banerjee created, a social enterprise called Qube in 2017. Its product is the Plastiqube-an alternative brick made from waste plastic.

Banerjee and his team work with waste collectors to gather garbage, including water bottles and abandoned bags. The garbage is then cleaned, cut up and pressed into blocks by hand. “Each Plastiqube brick costs 5 to 6 rupees about 8 cents to makewhile the average clay brick sells for about 10 rupees (14 cents),” Banerjee says. What 's more, unlike traditional bricks, Plastiqubes don' t use any mortar (砂浆). “They are basically like Lego bricks,” explains Banerjee, now aged 22. He adds“There are interlocking designs on the bottom and the top, and they lock between each other.

India is estimated to throw away over 25, 000 tons of plastic waste every day. Around 40% of it is left uncollected. “We’re building something sustainable (可持续的) out of garbage,” Banerjee says. By taking coal and mortar out of the brick making process, Banerjee claims Plastiqubes can reduce energy use by 70 percent, generating a much lower carbon foot-print than traditional bricks.

Each Plastiqube brick contains 1.6 kilograms of waste plastic. They haven't yet been tried out for practical purpose but tests on their fire resistance and long- term steadiness are now in progress. Banerjee believes they will last even longer than traditional clay bricks, while removing waste plastic from the environment for centuries.

Banerjee's innovation has, already won him recognition. He was a regional finalist for the United Nation's 2018 Young Champions of the Earth awards. He is also part of the Yunus and Yunus Global Fellowship. Banerjee will not only encourage young engineers to dream big, but also to think carefully about the environmental impact. “My advice is to start something while keeping a goal that it has to be sustainable in the long term,” he says.

1Why did Banerjee invent Plastiqube ?

A.To reduce the cost of bricks.B.To protect the environment.

C.To control the usage of mortar.D.To raise his company 's reputation.

2Which of the following makes the new bricks join together?

A.Mortar.B.Lego bricks.

C.Average clay.D.Interlocking design.

3How does the text describe the characters of Plastiqube?

A.By explaining the process.B.By analyzing some cases.

C.By listing some data.D.By giving examples.

4What can we learn from the text?

A.Banerjee has won lots of national awards.

B.Producing Plastiqube needs little labor force.

C.Plastiqube hasn't been used to build houses.

D.Banerjee likes inspiring teenagers to go for dreams.
