3 . Having a vegetable garden offers many health benefits. Here are reasons why a home vegetable garden beats even the farmers’ market when it comes to your health and well-being.

    1    .

Gardening is very physical. What makes gardening better than a gym workout is that it happens outdoors with fresh air and sunshine. Whether you are weeding in the down- ward dog position, or digging bags of soil, a garden delivers the full gym experience, from cardio right down to yoga.

Your garden provides you with a raw diet. Most homegrown crops taste better than store-bought, but no vegetable takes this to the next level like sweet peas.     2    , but most gardeners find that even a few vines (藤) are worth the space. A handful of freshly-shelled, raw sweet peas bursting into your mouth on a summer morning have few rivals in the food kingdom.

    3    .

The average consumer remains at the mercy of the produce buyer at the local market, but once the home gardener discovers the diversity of colors and tastes that can be homegrown, a nutrient-rich vegetable choice opens up. Heirloom (原种的) tomatoes range in color from deep purple and nearly black to golden yellow and pale white. Besides the color, there is another benefit.     4     .

Your garden allows you to give.     5    , but nothing feels as great as when you share food. Imagine how it feels for others to receive fresh homegrown vegetables. A basket of heir- loom cherry tomatoes can disappear faster than a box of donuts deep fried in fat.

A．It’s nice to receive gifts

B．We know that it feels good to give

C．Your garden lets you eat the rainbow

D．The vegetable garden makes you a chef

E．Growing vegetables helps you take exercise

F．Experts may not recommend sweet peas for small gardens

G．Nutritionists agree that colorful vegetables are rich in nutrition

5 . I’m Alice. From childhood, my sister and I each received a new calendar every Christmas from my parents. And even though we shared a bedroom and could have shared a calendar, too, we always got our own. My sister is three years younger than me, and for many years she requested a teddy bear calendar. My calendars always contained photos of a princess.

Even after I began my family, I still told my husband there was only one Christmas present I’d want most every year—a family photo calendar. And each year, he’s delivered.

Each month of my calendar features a few photos taken in the same month of the year that just passed. These photos are a way for our family to revisit fun events or to realize just how much my son Ryan has grown in one year.

At the end of the year, the completed calendar will go on the bookshelf with every other photo calendar that’s come before it. Through those calendars you can know what our family was like then—what we looked like the year before and how we will fill our days in the new year.

When I was a kid, unwrapping(打开) each new calendar gave me a sense of hope and promise for the year to come. Times have changed. Now, unwrapping the new calendar is different. I feel a sense of pride and joy when I look at our family and revisit our good times. But there is also a sense of sadness when I realize how big Ryan has gotten.

As I look through the pages, I don’t know exactly what the year ahead will hold for us. However, we can only be said to be alive in those moments when our hearts are conscious(意识到的) of our treasures(宝藏).

And that is the true gift.

1. What can we learn about Alice’s childhood from paragraph 1?

A．Alice and her sister both had a bedroom of their own.

B．They shared only a calendar because they were poor.

C．It’s a tradition to receive a new calendar each year.

D．Alice had a miserable time with her younger sister.

2. What does Alice’s yearly completed photo calendar bring Alice now?

A．A time capsule(胶囊).	B．Knowledge.
C．A rubbish bag.	D．A family tree.

3. What feelings does unwrapping each new calendar bring Alice now?

A．Promising.	B．Mixed.
C．Sad.	D．Joyful.

4. Which of the following is the best title for the text?

A．My Wonderful Childhood	B．The Use of a Calendar
C．A Year at a Time	D．A Timeless Gift

7 . How to End a Family Fight

Seeing people in your family fight can be really tough. Whether you’re Involved or not, you might be feeling sad, angry, or even ashamed when your loved ones yell and scream at each other.     1    

Keep you cool.     2     If you feel like you might shout or explode instead of talking calmly, take a walk around the block to calm down first. No matter who you’re talking to, doing it in a calm manner will go much better than shouting or screaming.

    3     It will be much easier to talk to everyone at the same time. See if there’s a good time and day that works for everyone in your family to get together. Then, you can all meet up and talk about your issues. If you’re younger, try asking your parents to call a family meeting and invite all your family members. If the problem is with your extended family, consider asking them to talk over video chat or on the phone.

Use language. Center the problems on how you’re feeling. Instead of blaming your family members or calling them out, try to use “I” statements as much as possible. This can help people feel less defensive and more able to work through issues with you. For example, instead of saying, “You shout at me too much.”     4    

Listen to everyone. Give everyone in the family a chance to speak.     5     Don’t interrupt, even if it seems like someone is lying or being dramatic — when it’s your Aim to talk, you can bring up the matter that’s bothering you.

A．Call a family meeting.

B．Maintain neutral body language.

C．You could say, “When you shout at me, I feel afraid.”

D．It’s easy to get fired up when your family is fighting.

E．It’s time to express what you really need in the future.

F．That way, everyone feels like they get a say in what’s going on.

G．There are a few techniques to have a calm discussion with your family about your issues.

8 . Cook in the kitchen

Earlier last month, my parents and I had a free day — a rare event for us.     1    

For our weekend menu, we decided to make smoked pork. I found this recipe online. It looked interesting and the steps were simple. So we decided to make it for dinner one weekend.

First, according to the recipe, the pork needed to be salted. The process would take a long time.     2     Mom first thawed (解冻) the pork and then spread salt, sugar and pepper or the surface, After that, she wrapped the pork in a plastic film (塑料薄膜) and refrigerated it for two days.

    3     To make smoked dishes indoors, we needed to use aluminum foil (铝箔). After searching for it for a long time, we finally found the foil in the cupboard.

After that, Dad was responsible for slicing (切片) the pork, Mother was responsible for preparing the ingredients (佐料). I was responsible for spreading the black tea and sugar for smoking on the aluminum foil and then a layer of baking paper.     4     After more than ten minutes of smoking and a few minutes of frying, the smoked pork was complete.

    5     When combined with an apple vinegar sauce, the meat was even more delicious.

A．It was easy for me to make the food.

B．Pork is the main meat source of our food.

C．We decided to cook together in the kitchen.

D．Finally, I put the pork on the smoking shelf.

E．So, Mom started working on it early the night before.

F．Two days later, the pork was ready for the next steps.

G．The pork was very delicious and contained the special smell of black tea.
