A recent report from Dazhou Daily says about 18% of Dazhou teenagers can have problems with their minds（內(nèi)心，精神）. Some students become worried because they have to study very hard. Others have trouble getting on well with people like their parents and classmates.

All around the world, people drink tea. But tea does not mean the same thing to everyone. In different countries, people have very different ideas about drinking tea.
In China, for example, people always drink tea when they are getting together. They drink it at any time of the day at homes or in the teahouses. They prefer plain tea, with nothing else in it.
Tea is also important in Japan. The Japanese have a special way of serving tea called tea ceremony（茶道）. It is very old and full of meaning. Everything must be done in a special way in the ceremony. There is even a special room for it in Japanese homes.
Another tea-drinking country is England. In England, the late afternoon is “tea time”. Almost everyone has a cup of tea then. The English usually make tea in a teapot and drink it with milk and sugar. They also eat cakes, cookies and a few sandwiches at tea time. This is the so-called “Afternoon Tea” in Britain.
In the United States, people drink tea mostly for breakfast or after meals. Americans usually use tea bags to make their tea. Tea bags are faster and easier than making tea in teapots. In summer, many Americans drink cold tea—“iced tea”. Sometimes they drink canned iced tea, just as soda.

One of the things to be learnt in a foreign language is guessing all the time what kind of thing to come when listening to someone talking. People do this all the time in their own language, so it is necessary to do this in a foreign language, too. Here are some examples.
1.” What’s the matter?” “I went to a party last night, so I…”
2.”I feel so tired these days.” “I think you’d better…”
3.”O(jiān)f course, she never stops talking. She is one of the most…”
You can see from the above three examples that the context helps a lot in understanding what is being talked about. So “guessing” is very important in understanding English, especially spoken English.
小題1:This passage tells us mainly about ________.
A．the importance of “guessing” in learning a foreign language.
B．how to guess what one is going to talk about.
C．Some examples of right guessing.
D．how important it is to guess all the time.
小題2:From the context, we can see maybe the finished answer in EXAMPLE 1 is ________.
A．…so I didn’t have a good time.”
B．…so I went to bed very late.”
C．…so I felt unhappy.”
D．…so I got up very early.”
小題3:Maybe the finished answer in EXAMPLE 2 is ________.

D．“I think you’d better to be more careful.”

Everybody hates rats. But in the earthquake places of the world – Japan, Los Angeles, Turkey – rats will soon be man’s new best friends.
What happens after an earthquake? We send in rescue(救援) dogs. Why? Because they can smell people. Dogs save lives. They help rescuers to find living people. But dogs are big and they can’t get into small spaces. So now a new research project is using a smaller animal to save lives: the rat.
How does it work? First, the rat is trained to smell people. When this happens, the rat’s brain gives a signal. This is sent to a small radio on its back, and then the rescuers follow the radio signals. When the rat’s brain activity jumps, the rescuers know that someone is alive. The rat has smelled that person.
Although there are already robots which can do this job, rats are better. Christian Linster at Cornell University, New York, says, “ ‘Robot’ noses don’t work well when there are other smells around. Rats are good at that.” Rats can also see in the dark. They are cheaper and quicker to train than dogs, and unlike robots, they don’t need electricity.
The “ rat project” is not finished, but Julie Ryan of International Rescue Corps in Scotland says, “ It would be fantastic. A rat would get into spaces we couldn’t get to and a rat would get out if it wasn’t safe.” Perhaps for the first time in history, people will be happy to see a rat in a building ( but only after an earthquake, of course.)
小題1:In the earthquake places, rats will become man’s best friends because they can __________.
A．take the place of man in rescue jobs
B．find the positions of people alive who are trapped in buildings
C．serve as food for people alive who are trapped in buildings
D．send signals for the coming earthquake
小題2:The underlined word “that” in Paragraph 4 refers to(所指)  _________  
A．treating wounded people.
B．helping rescuers.
C．smelling people among different smells.
D．carry the wounded people to safety.
小題3:From the third paragraph we know the rescuers can judge a person is alive by ___________.
A．the nose made by the rat
B．the rat’s unusual behavior
C．the signal sent by the radio on the rat’s back
D．the smell given off by the person
小題4:In doing rescue jobs, __________________________.
A．rats have better sense of smell than dogs.
B．dogs don’t need to be trained to smell people.
C．robots’ sense of smell can be affected by other smells around.
D．rats can see in the dark and are smaller than robots.
小題5:After reading the passage we can know ______________________________.
A．rats have taken the place of dogs in search for people.
B．the “ rat project” has been completed
C．people are now happy to see a rat in a building
D．now people still use dogs and robots in performing rescue

More and more Chinese people care for their own health. I come from England. I came to China five years ago. I began to learn cooking Chinese food from my father. When I was fifteen, I began to help my mother in the kitchen. My father is a very famous cook in Beijing. So he taught me many things about cooking. In the past three years, I never stopped learning cooking. When I saw a book called The disease eating out can be gone back again by eating (《把吃出來的病再吃回去》), I began studying the book. .The writer of the book is Zhang Wuben. He said he was a famous nutritionist (營養(yǎng)師)and well-known traditional Chinese doctor. He asked the people to eat eggplant (茄子)and gram (綠豆). In China, Zhang Wuben's book has been popular in the past few years.
My father was invited to talk about the book in May, 2010. A large number of Chinese people believe they should eat eggplant and gram to be healthy. I have visited a lot of Chinese restaurants in Beijing and studied hundreds of restaurant menus.  I talked to lots of doctors about eating and nutrition (營養(yǎng)). They thought that Zhang Wuben's words violated the science. He told a lie. The fact is that it's important for us to eat a balanced diet and not just to eat eggplant and gram.
小題1:Why did most of Chinese people believe to eat eggplant and gram to be healthy?
A．Because the people think Zhang Wuben is a famous nutritionist and doctor.
