阅读下面短文并根据要求完成后面的题目。
You seem to be a Wet Blanket(a person who doesn’t enjoy himself/herself and thus prevents others from enjoying themselves)when it comes to nature and your kid．You are most likely a caring, protective parent who wants to keep your child safe and sound．You may be so determined to protect your kid from dirt, sunburn, frostbite, or scratches that you try to avoid the outdoors．Or you may just find muddy clothes and sandy toes require too much extra work．Perhaps you hate to get dirty yourself．The natural world may just make you nervous and you might worry those bugs and bats will suck you dry．It may be that you just never got the chance to be outdoors when you were a kid and now know nothing about what to do with your kid．
While it is every care-giver’s job to protect their kid, your worries may cause your child to grow up as a Wet Blanket as well．If you prefer the indoors yourself, you may be keeping your kid from outdoor experiences without even realizing it．Your attitudes about nature have a huge influence on how comfortable your kid will feel outside．You may need to go against your own nature and “open the door” to get your kid outside!
You may already see the value in helping kids spend time outside in nature and know that playing in natural settings helps children grow up mentally．Perhaps you already introduce your child to nature through books, museums, and zoos．Maybe you just need some ideas of what to do with kids outside．Try some simple nature activities with your kid, or sign-up for professionally-led nature programs to develop your skills．While it may be a challenge for you to overcome your own nervousness about nature, you can raise a child who ________．
One of the easiest ways you can get your kid outside is to become a Door Opener．Even if you don’t enjoy playing in the mud you can take breath and let them loose!Undirected time to explore nature is an important part of raising a caring kid．This might be free time in the backyard, allowing him to wander ahead on a walk or simply providing her with materials for a project．Putting aside your own nervousness and providing “in-the-wings” support will enrich your child’s journey as a nature lover!Belt out a song, build a snowman, watch the clouds, or plant a seed with your child．Help your child connect his creative side with nature．
1．What is the best title of the passage?(Please answer within 10 words．)
2．Which sentence in the passage can be replaced by the following one?
Maybe you’ve known the benefits of playing outside and realized that it can help build up your kid’s inner world．
3．Please fill in the blank in the third paragraph with proper words or phrases to complete the sentence．(Please answer within 10 words．)
4．Which do you think is the best way to get you and your kid outside?Why?(Please answer within 30 words．)
5．Translate the underlined sentence in the last paragraph into Chinese．

You’d think by now that everyone would be aware of the dangers of cigarette smoking．So why are more women lighting up?
Since 1980, some 3 million women have died of smoking-related illnesses．A new study reports women now account for 39 percent of all smoking-related deaths, a figure that has more than doubled since 1965．
In the early decades smoking was mainly popular among men, and it took nearly 25 years before the gap narrowed and smoking became quite common among women．
Nearly all women who smoke picked up the habit as teenagers－and 30 percent of today’s high school seniors smoke．Dr Thompson says, “We must begin this battle in schools before girls even begin to smoke．We must share with teenage girls that smoking is really harmful．”
18．How many women died of smoking-related illnesses since 1980?
