The Top 4 Beaches on the East Coast
Nantucket, Massachusetts
Great point, at the easternmost end of the island of Nantucket, is one of the most secret beaches in the world. That's because you need a four﹣wheel drive vehicle and a beach permit to get there. Once you do, you'll find miles of beachfront and a historic lighthouse.
Block Island, Rhode Island
Accessible by ferry, Block Island oozes New England charm. It's worth the effort to get to Mohegan Bluffs, where you can experience a set of 141 wooden steps leading down to the sand.

East Hampton, New York
Named the best beach in the county in 2013, Main Beach in East Hampton is known for its wide stretch of sand plus a snack bar, bathrooms, and lockers. On﹣site parking is only available to village residents but there are free beach shuttles available.
Jekyll Island, Georgia
Located off the coast of Georgia, this 5, 700﹣acre barrier island is famous for its nesting sea turtles and hermit crabs.

A very dangerous situation happened in California last week. More than 12 wildfires broke out in the state. Most of them began on October 8, in Northern California. They grew rapidly. The fires were made bigger by winds of up to 50 miles per hour and dry air in the area.
At least 20 people have been killed, the state government said. About 200 have been injured. At least 3,500 homes and businesses have been destroyed. About 50,000 people have been required to escape. Many left in a hurry, without time to take their personal things. “All the good stuff(东西)—I’m never going to see it again,” Jeff Okrepkie said. He escaped from his Santa Rosa home. It was destroyed soon after he left.
The fires burned through parts of eight counties(郡，县). These include Sonoma and Napa. The areas are important to California’s economy(经济). They are home to many of the state’s vineyards(葡萄园) and wineries(酿酒厂). In 2016, California’s wineries made more than $57 billion.
October is when wildfires usually produce the most ruins in California. But it is unusual for so many fires to start at once. Up to now, the government has not given a cause for any of the fires, many of which were still burning.
4．Why did the fires grow quickly
A．Most of the fires began in October. B．12 fires happened at the same time.
C．The state government didn’t do anything. D．High-speed wind and dry air.

Do you want to live another 100 years or more Some experts say that scientific advances will one day enable humans to last tens of years beyond what is now seen as the natural limit of the human life span.
“I think we are knocking at the door of immortality(永生),” said Michael Zey, a Montclair State University business professor and author of two books on the future. “I think by 2075 we will see it and that’s a conservative estimate(保守的估计).”
At the meeting in San Francisco, Donald Louria, a professor at New Jersey Medical School in Newark said advances in using genes(基因) as well as nanotechnology(纳米技术) make it likely that humans will live in the future beyond(超过) what was possible in the past. “There is a great effort so that people can live from 120 to 180 years,” he said. “Some have suggested that there is no limit and that people could live to 200 or 300 or 500 years.”
However, many scientists who specialize in aging are doubtful about it and say the human body is just not designed to last past about 120 years. Even with healthier lifestyles and less disease, they say failure of the brain and organs(器官) will finally lead all humans to death.
Scientists also differ on what kind of life the super aged might live. “It remains to be seen if you pass 120, you know; could you be healthy enough to have good quality of life ” said Leonard Poon, director of the University of Georgia Gerontology Centre. “At present people who could get to that point are not in good health at all.”
8．By saying“we are knocking at the door of immortality”,Michael Zey means_________.
A．they have got some ideas about living forever
B．they believe that there is no limit of living
C．they are able to make people live past the present life span

B．it is possible for humans to live longer in the future
C．it is still doubtful how long humans can live
D．people can live from 200 to 500
10．The underlined word“it”(in Paragraph 4)refers to________.
A．a great effort
B．the conservative estimate
C．the idea of living from 200 to 300 years
D．the idea of living beyond the present life span
11．What would be the best title for this text

When it comes to materials to do good to our body, it must be mentioned that there are all sorts of foods to everyone’s taste. Some foods are known to have a completely ruined effect on your brain function, and nutritionists advise us not to consume them too much in order to limit their negative impacts.
Here are some top foods that kill your intelligence.
1. Sugar
Sugar and sugary products are bad not only for your waistline, but for your brain function as well. Long-term consumption of sugar can create a lot of neurological (神经系统的) problems, and it can also do harm to your memory. On the other hand, sugar can also bring damage to your ability to learn. So avoid the products.
2. Alcohol
Alcohol is known to harm your liver (肝) in the long run, and it also causes what is known as “brain fog”, a feeling of mental confusion, It acts like a cloud that impacts your ability to think clearly, as well as your memory. Have you ever noticed that you cannot remember common items’ names This might be influenced by high alcohol intake, which impacts the balance of the brain.
3. Junk Food
A recent study has revealed that junk food can change the chemicals in the brain, thus leading to symptoms associated with depression and anxiety. Besides, foods that are high in fat can also produce some symptoms that are similar to the signs of “miss” when you stop consuming them. These foods affect the production of dopamine (多巴胺), an important chemical that promotes happiness and an overall feeling of well-being.
4. Very Salty Foods
Everybody knows that salty foods affect your blood pressure and they are very hard on your heart. However, as research suggests, foods that contain high amounts of salt can affect your learning function and make your ability to think imperfect. Otherwise stated, salty foods affect your intelligence! As a matter of fact, the consumption of salty foods has been shown to have the same effect as taking drugs, as it can cause uncomfortable symptoms and hunger for salty foods.
5. Foods with Processed Protein (蛋白质)
Meat is the richest source of high-quality protein, but avoid overly processed proteins such as hot dogs, sausages and so on. Unlike the natural proteins that help your body protect the nervous system, processed proteins do exactly the opposite. Better choose natural products, such as fish, dairy products, and seeds as these are natural, high-quality protein sources.
12．Which group of foods may affect your memory
A．Sugar and alcohol. B．Sugar and junk food.

Knowing that you are interested in traditional Chinese festivals, I’m more than delighted to introduce my favorite festival—Chongyang Festival to you.
Falling on the ninth day of the ninth lunar month, Chongyang Festival is viewed as Senior Citizens’ Day since “nine” is the largest single number. People often do activities like climbing mountains and admiring flowers on this day. As for me, I had never thought about doing anything for the elderly until I learned about the festival at school. Our teacher asked us to do a nice thing for our grandparents. For the first time in my life, I washed my grandma’s feet. I’ll never forget the sweet smile she wore and the happiness I felt.
I sincerely invite you to come to experience it by yourself. Looking forward to your coming.
Yours,
Li Hua

Like many parents, I enjoyed reading a bedtime story to my two sons each night before they went to bed. After the story was over, we would turn off the lights, and talked until they fell 21
One night after the lights were off, my 3-year-old son, Will, 22 me to tell them a story 23 by myself, not one from a book. So I 24 told him a story about the first thing that came into my 25 . But to my surprise, he 26 it so much that he asked me to do that the next night.
Thus a story-telling tradition was 27 in our family. Ever since that night, they seemed not to be able to sleep without hearing one of my 28 stories. Of all the things I do for my 29 ,my storytelling is what they love most. It has created a special 30 between us. And they find that their day isn’t 31 without one of my stories, and so do I.
When I see how 32 my storytelling is in their lives, I come to realize how much our television and video-oriented (以视频为导向的) society has 33 in terms of the personal connections that storytelling brings. Before the 34 of television, computers and smartphones, a family’s 35 was built around storytelling. This oral (口述的) tradition was 36 from generation to generation, and many of the stories we have today originated from this tradition until someone finally 37 them down.
Storytelling is used as a creative way to 38 for me. During the storytelling, I forget about the pressure of the day and enjoy the 39 time I can spend with my children. I hope that other parents can gain 40 from storytelling, too.

Dear Tom,
Knowing that you are interested in traditional Chinese festivals, I’m more than delighted to introduce my favorite festival—Chongyang Festival to you.
Falling on the ninth day of the ninth lunar month, Chongyang Festival is viewed as Senior Citizens’ Day since “nine” is the largest single number. People often do activities like climbing mountains and admiring flowers on this day. As for me, I had never thought about doing anything for the elderly until I learned about the festival at school. Our teacher asked us to do a nice thing for our grandparents. For the first time in my life, I washed my grandma’s feet. I’ll never forget the sweet smile she wore and the happiness I felt.
I sincerely invite you to come to experience it by yourself. Looking forward to your coming.
Yours,
Li Hua
