Besides the animal zodiac system (十二生肖), Chinese people also show their connection with animals in other ways    1     Paper-cutting in the shape of animals is one of the most common examples.

Paper-cutting is an amazing art. People use scissors cut paper into different shapes of animals, flowers, cut babies and so on. This art just needs simple tools, but it is not easy at all. When we look at the masters to cut paper, it only takes them a few minutes to finish, but for green hands,    2    他们需要练习很长时间。

Paper-cutting has a long history. When it first appeared in around 386, it didn’t attract much attention because of the shortage of paper.     3    这种艺术直到 6世纪才开始流行。With the development of the art, even in royal (皇家的) families ladies were also judged by the ability at paper cutting. In the 21st century,    4     red paper-cutting which means good luck can be often seen in weddings.

Without doubt, all these handwork products can reflect the relations between humans and animals, and even the whole world, and also the wisdom of ancient Chinese people.     5     It’s regretful that fewer and fewer young people show interest in it. Maybe, when the young can understand the real spirit of the art, they will finally fall in love with it.

An Accidental Invention

Did you know that tea, the most popular drink in the world (after water), was invented by accident? Many people believe that tea was first drunk nearly 5,000 years ago.     1    It is said that a Chinese ruler called Shen Nong first discovered tea as a drink.   One day Shen Nong was boiling drinking water over an open fire.     2    Some leaves from a tea plant fell into the water and remained there for some time.   It produced a nice smell so he tasted the brown water anyway. It was quite delicious. In this way,     3    世界上最受欢迎的饮品之一被发明了。

It is believed that tea was brought to Korea and Japan during the 6th and 7th centuries.     4    In England, tea didn't appear until around 1660, but less than100 years later. it had become the national drink. The tea trade from China to Western countries took place in the 19th century. This helped to spread the popularity of tea and the tea plant to more places around the world.     5    尽管现在很多人都了解茶文化, the Chinese are without doubt the ones who best understand the nature of tea.

Four rules for a healthy life

    1     Thanks to better health care, most people are living healthier and longer lives. It’s even thought that in the future more and more people will celebrate their hundredth birthdays. Here are four rules for a healthy life.

1. Get off the sofa!

Sure, it’s comfortable to sit on the sofa and watch TV. But doctors say you should get off the sofa.     2     要保持健康，你每天至少应走10000步。In the past, people’s jobs required more physical effort. They often had to walk for miles every day. When farmers were working, they were keeping fit at the same time. Think about it: Do you get the same amount of exercise today as they did in the past?

2. Eat healthy food!

    3     吃新鲜自然的食物很重要，for example, fruit and vegetables. Fast food is not healthy. You should only have it once in a while. Eating too much of the wrong food will harm your health.

3. Rest while you can!

    4     When we were babies, we slept for much of the night. Teenagers do not need as much sleep as babies, but it’s important for you to get about eight hours’ sleep a night. At weekends, you’ve got more time, so use it not just for your friends, but for rest too.

4. Don’t worry. Be happy!

    5     许多人认为幸福对我们的健康很重要。Sometimes it is not easy to be a teenager because of the difficulties of school, exams or friendships. If you’re worried about something, talk to your parents or your teacher.

7 . 请根据上下文内容, 将文中划线部分译成汉语或者英语。

There are many new ways of shopping, and online shopping is one of them. You can buy almost everything on the Internet, which is very easy. First, you choose something—clothes, tickets, a mobile phone, even a new computer—and pay for it.     1     Then you receive it a few days later by post.

Online shopping has several advantages. First, you can shop at any time as the shops are always open. However, physical stores have special opening hours.     2     其次, 实体店购物通常花费很多时间。You may get tired and be trapped in the crowded people and cars. But to shop on the Internet you only need a computer and a mouse!     3     You can also compare the prices of the same product and spend a lot or save money. But many people like going out and shopping with friends.     4     They don’t like shopping on the Internet because they can’t see the product or try the clothes on. Also paying over the Internet isn’t always safe.     5     网上购物正在改变我们的生活方式。One day no one will go to the shops anymore, because you’ll be able to buy anything on the Internet, and you will be able to receive it anywhere in the world at any time!
