1 . These days many students like to make friends on line. Most of them think it's interesting to know an unknown person through the Internet. So, many students like to use computers to talk with those friends. And they spend too much time on it. Some of them can not do well in their school work. Their parents often don’t think the children are as good as before. So many teachers and parents are worried about their children.
In fact, only very few of them can get real good friends in this way. Most of them were cheated by those unseen friends. And some of the students did wrong things on line. It’s terrible for students to use too much time to make friends and talk on line. So we should be careful of making friends on line and should not spend too much time on it. We’d better pay more attention to study. We will be happy when we do well in school and at home.

I’m sorry that I can’t go back home for Mother’s Day next week. On that day, I’ll have to go to an important meeting for my boss, who helps me a lot with my work and life here. But I’ll find time to see you at home soon.
Mom, thank you for everything you’ve done for Tim and me. After Dad died ten years ago, you had to work in a supermarket in the daytime and in a restaurant at night. But you always gave us two your love and care. You don’t have to work now, but I still remember your coming home and feeling tired many evenings.
Tim is going to finish his studies next month. He said he would move back from school and look for a job near home. I’m glad you won’t live by yourself any more. Let’s plan to take a trip in the near future. It’s been years since the three of us took a trip together.
Happy Mother’s Day. I love you!
Best wishes
John

3 . A young woman traveled and stayed in a hotel. All the rooms in the hotel were singles(单人间). So she lived in a single room.
Just when she was going to bed, there was a knock at the door. She had no friends in the city. So she was quite surprised but still opened the door.
The man who was standing at the door looked a little nervous. “Oh! I’m sorry. I thought this was my room,” the man said and walked away in a hurry. The woman called the police at once.

7 . A young family who has never camped in their life have sold everything they own to start a tour of Europe in a motorhome. Cheryl, 33 and Jason, 28, sold their house, quit their jobs and ditched a normal life for a year on the road.
With their eldest daughter Flora, five, just a year away from starting school, the couple decided it was time to go on a family adventure across the continent. Cheryl teaches Flora while they travel to prepare her for school next year. The family, which also include their four-year-old daughter Elsie, son Archie and dogs Poppy and Angus, have been on the road for a period.
Cheryl said, “nobody would describe us as typical travelers. We’d never even been camping before. We talked for a long time about wanting to see different parts of the world, but we never actually thought we were actually going to. Our eldest child is due to start school this August, so we put it off by one year. We thought, ‘if we don’t do it this year, we may never will.’ My mom and dad died this year and after that I started to feel life is too short. We thought there must be more to life than working, eating and sleeping every day.”
The mom-of-three still can’t quite believe they’re actually doing it. After all, it happened so fast. She said, “We decided it at the end of June, sold our house in July, and then when August came around we bought the motor house and set off.”
Despite being anxious at first, with the family sometimes quarreling, Cheryl thinks the trip has helped strengthen family bonds. She said, “If we have an argument there is nowhere to hide. You can’t go into your room and be angry. It means it has to be dealt with there and then, and its taught us to be more open with each other as a family. Every day is quality family time. We couldn’t get that if we were back home with work, school and nursery.”
1. What does the underlined word “ditched” in Paragraph 1 mean?| A．gave up. | B．enjoyed. | C．experienced. | D．got tired of. |
| A．It is too short. | B．It is too expensive. |
| C．It is filled with quarrels. | D．It is worthwhile. |
| A．To honor Cheryl’s parents. | B．To experience more about life. |
| C．To prepare the kids for school. | D．To give Jason a break from work. |
| A．They’re actually typical traveler. |
| B．They have spent years preparing for the travel. |
| C．They become closer as family members. |

8 . How do we make traditional Chinese culture alive and popular again among young people? Livestreaming (直播) has made it. It is not only fun, but has also provided a new stage for traditional culture artists.
On video websites and apps such as Douyin and Bilili, many traditional artists are trying livestreaming for the first time. Some of them sing Peking Opera, some show their hand-made art pieces, while others perform classical music.
Li, 59 years old, is a laosheng(old male role) Peking Opera performer who started livestreaming this year. Unlike performing on a formal (正式的) stage, Li uses everyday places as his stage, including his backyard, study room, and even a sofa. Besides singing, Li also teaches viewers about Peking Opera in a funny way. People can ask him questions and get answers directly. “Livestreaming has brought this great art down to earth,” one viewer said. “It allows young people to know this traditional art and learn more about it in an easier way.”
Other kinds of artists also see livestreaming as a new opportunity. On March 26, the third China Huafu Day, Bilibili livestreamed a fashion show. Performers showed beautiful clothes in traditional Chinese styles , including those from Wei, Tang and Ming dynasties. During the show, viewers enjoyed the clothes and watched how performers used ancient styles of make-up. For example, one blogger taught people how to draw the guiye eyebrow (桂叶眉), which was a typical make-up style during Tang Dynasty.
There is no doubt that livestreaming has created a new channel through which traditional culture can be kept alive.
1. We can guess from Paragraph 3 that Li, as a teacher, is ________.| A．Strict | B．lazy | C．humorous | D．scary |
| A．help make Douyin and Bilibili more popular |
| B．teach where and how to perform Peking Opera |
| C．encourage young people to perform art at home |
| D．show traditional artists are using livestreaming |
| A．Wei | B．Tang | C．Ming | D．Qing |
| A．a TV show to introduce traditional clothes from different dynasties |
| B．a way to bring traditional culture back to life by sharing online videos |
| C．a program to give students many traditional Chinese cultural lessons |
| D．a stage to give performers a chance to take photos of their everyday life |
9 . You may have wondered why there are fish tanks (鱼缸) at many doctor’s and dentist’s offices. Actually these medical professionals are trying to keep their working areas less stressful (有压力的) with the help of fish tanks. Because of the soft bubbling (冒泡声) from the fish tanks, their patients are expected to feel less nervous or worried when staying there.
The sound of running water can make people feel relaxed. For this reason, places where water keeps running are often considered good choices for people to have deep thoughts and stay relaxed in mind. Even a small tabletop fountain (喷泉) can make a workspace more relaxing. Unlike loud noises, repeated natural sounds remind that everything is OK. “These slow but soft sounds are just the ones that bring us no harm,” said Orfeu Buxton, a professor at Pennsylvania State University. “It seems like they are saying, ‘Don’t worry; don’t worry; don’t worry.’”
Besides bringing a sense of peace to your indoor space, a fountain can also prevent noises from coming inside. I recently had a small indoor fountain for my workspace. I enjoy the fountain even when I’m not working at home.
If you want to have an indoor fountain too, there are plenty of wonderful ones on sale, which may cost you a lot. You can try making one yourself, using some inexpensive materials, like I did. And you will always keep it around — 1,000 doctor’s offices can’t be wrong about the relaxing effects of running water.
