Learning how to save lives with CPRIf you see someone collapse（失去意识）, perhaps as a result of a heart attack, what can you do while you wait for an ambulance（救护车） Chen Wenqiaochu set a good example when he was 14. He performed CPR on a cleaner at his school, saving the man’s life. The Ministry of Education（教育部）and Red Cross Society of China asks all public schools nationwide to provide first-aid courses, including CPR training, as a part of health education. Snack stores close in view of health. The Ministry of Education has banned convenience stores（便利店）in all kindergartens, primary, middle and high schools across the country. The regulation（规章制度）has taken effect since April 1. Many students were sad about it. However, many parents expressed support for the regulation. The Beijing News reported. The regulation also requires schools to monitor students who may be overweight, and intervene（干预）to make sure they follow a healthy diet. No mobile phones in campus（校园） In a notice published by the Ministry of Education on Monday, primary and secondary school students are asked not to bring their phones onto the campus, except when it is allowed by their parents along with a written application form. Another major point is that teachers are not allowed to assign homework on mobile phones or ask students to complete homework on mobile phones.

I ordered some snacks on my phone the other afternoon. Once I got home from work that evening, I saw they were already at my door. So fast!
Have you ever thought about how people in the past communicated and did things without mobile phones
Take the post for example. Before phones, if you wanted to stay in touch with someone far away, you needed to send them a letter in the mail. When my mom was in primary school, she used to do this with her “pen pal”. A pen pal is a name for a person you keep in touch with mainly through postal mail. My mom would write to her pen pal every few months, and then, after a little while, her pen pal would write back.
Later, once email became a common thing, sending letters in the post felt so slow to people. It became known as “snail（蜗牛）mail”!
What if you were at an airport in the tine before mobile phones My dad said that in the 1970s there used to be message boards at some airports. If you needed to exit（离开）the airport and wanted to leave a message for a friend who would be arriving later, you could write them a message and stick it on the message board. Then, your friend could go check the board later and see what you wrote to them!
34．How did the writer’s mom keep in touch with her pen pal
A．By talking on phones. B．By mailing letters.
C．By visiting every few months. D．By writing diaries.
35．Why does the writer use “snail mail” in Paragraph 4
A．To make fun of people still sending letters. B．To say that postal mail was famous.
C．To say that email was a common thing. D．To say that postal mail was very slow.
36．Where could people leave messages at some airports in the 1970s
A．On the door of the exit. B．At the information desk.
C．On the message boards. D．On the boarding gate of the plane.
37．What is the story mainly about
A．How fast it is to buy things nowadays. B．How people stayed in touch before.
C．The importance of communication. D．Ways of making friends in the past.

From red apples and yellow lemons to blueberries and green melons, fruit comes in many different colors. Why do different kinds of fruits have so many colors
According to Chinese Academy of Sciences, fruit colors actually come from their different pigments (色素), such as red or yellow carotenoid (类胡萝卜素) and blue or purple anthocyanin (花青素). These pigments appear in different amounts, depending on the fruit’s environment. This causes the fruit to turn a certain color.
To find out how the environment affects fruit colors, Chinese scientists studied more than 280 different fruit colors, including white, red, blue, purple and black.
They found that red fruit tends to grow in cooler places. And instead of just growing in one place, you can find them growing in many places around the world. Blue and purple fruit mostly grows in warm places. These fruit tends to grow a lot in just one special area. The scientists also found that the closer the fruit is to the equator (赤道) , the darker its color will be.
Animals have also had an impact on the evolution (进化) of fruit colors. Animals eat fruit and drop the seeds in other places later. This helps the fruit spread and grow in different places. Therefore, in order to attract animals, some fruits develop colors that are easy for animals to see.
However, animals see colors in a different way. Fruit needs to develop colors that are suited to animals’ visual abilities. For example, birds can see red more easily than humans can. Therefore, there tends to be more red fruit in areas where birds live. The lemurs (狐猴) of Madagascar are red-green color-blind. Many yellow fruits can be found in their habitats (栖息地), as they can easily see this color.
38．You are more likely to find blue and purple fruit in ________ places.
A．cooler B．warmer C．higher D．lower
39．Some fruits develop certain colors to ________ .
A．scare animals away B．absorb more sunlight
C．attract animals to eat them D．protect themselves
40．What do we know from the passage
A．Dark fruit tends to grow close to the equator. B．Green fruit tends to grow in cool places.
C．Humans can see red more easily than bird. D．Lemurs are color-blind and can’t see any colors.
41．Which of following factors have influenced the evolution of fruit colors
a. the environment b. the pigment c. animals d. scientists
A．ad B．bc C．ac D．bd
D
One day, three of my friends came to our house.
They told me they wanted to go to Africa. They asked me if I wanted　to go with them. I said, "Yes, I want to go with you."
We started to prepare all the necessary things for the journey. Soon we were ready to go. I said goodbye to my wife and we started our journey. Our plan was to be back in two months.
We left Brazil on the first of September, 1655. Our ship was very big but we were only seventeen men. The ship was full of things for business. We had cups, glass, mirrors, knives and other products.
At the beginning of our journey the weather was very good, but very hot. In one week, a hurricane (飓风) came and it was threatening our ship for the next twelve days. After the hurricane passed, we saw we went quite far from our original (原来的) journey and were instead close to the northern part of Brazil near the Orinoco River. The ship was badly damaged, so we could no longer go to Africa.
The captain wanted us to go back and repair the ship, but I strongly disagreed with him. We went over the maps and decided the best thing to do was to go to Barbados and repair the ship there.
When we started this short trip, a second hurricane came. The next morning one of the sailors cried out, "Land " and at that moment the ship stopped in shallow (浅的) water. We expected the ship to break apart at any moment because of the strong wind, so we all got into the small boat the ship carried. This was very dangerous because the seventeen of us were crowded in the boat, and it had no sail.
The waves were very big. The wind was extremely strong. The wind pushed us to big rocks. We knew the crash was close.
Suddenly, a huge wave appeared and overturned the boat. I was covered with water and couldn't breathe. I couldn't see tile others or the boat. But I saw a little beach between the rocks.
Another wave carried me to the beach. I tried to get up. I tried to go further froth the sea. I was able to move ten metres up. I was safe. But my arms and legs were very weak. I fell down and I was lying on the beach.
42．Why did the writer and his friends go to Africa
A．To leave their wives. B．To earn some money.
C．To send things to Africa. D．To travel around Africa.
43．What did they do after the first hurricane passed
A．They had to go back to the place where they started.
B．They studied the map and found a new way to Africa.
C．They headed for the nearest place to repair their ship.
D．They lost their way on the sea and gave up their ship.
44．Which is NOT the reason for the boat becoming dangerous
A．Shallow water. B．No sail. C．Crowded men. D．Big waves.
45．Which of the following shows the right order of the event
① The ship changed the direction after the hurricane.
② All the men escaped to the boat but it turned over.
③ The writer was washed up on tile beach by a wave.
④ The ship left Brazil with seventeen men on board.
⑤ The strong wind almost broke the ship into pieces.

Why do parents have such a hard time 61 (communicate) openly with their teens For this, there are many reasons but most of them come from not being able to properly understand their teens. It is a dangerous gap because parents will have to communicate with their teens about a wide variety of issues (事情) during 62 (important) years of their lives. Thus, parents must know how to communicate openly with their teens.
Here are a few tips to make communication much 63 (easy) between parents and teenagers.
Try not to look down upon your teens. Make them feel as if their views really matter, which not only helps your discussions with your teen but 64 (bring) you closer to him.
Imagine what it would be like 65 (be) a teen. Try to remember some of the negative (负面的) feelings you 66 (experience) as a teenager and apply it to your teen’s situation.
Avoid 67 (make) negative remarks to your teen about what she has said or done.
Remember how much 68 (encourage) it would have taken for your teen to come and talk to you about his 69 (person) issues. So listen respectfully.
Don’t ignore (忽视) your teen’s feelings because it is usually a cry for help. For instance, if your teen is 70 (usual) angry, it may be time to spend a bit of quality time with your teen to decide what is wrong and where he is coming from.
It is, therefore, necessary for parents to struggle to keep lines of communication open at all times with their teens. Try to remember what it was like to be a teenager and how vulnerable (脆弱的) you felt. Then you will be well on your way to help your teen communicate more openly.
