Passage 1
We are lucky to live in a rich country where we have many things. However, most of us usually waste some things.
Electricity is one thing that we waste most. Lights, TVs, r_1__ and other things are often kept on even when no one is using them. We should t_2__ them off when we do not need them. It takes less than a second to do it. Anyhow, not wasting electricity saves m__3_, because we do not have to pay for the electricity we do not use.
The second thing that we often waste is water. Fresh water is p 4__,so it shouldn't be wasted. It is only a simple matter of turning off a tap. I am sure anyone can do this e 5 if he wants to.
Another big waste is food. My mother used to cook so much food that much of it was t 6 away. I told her we had wasted so much food. She thought I was right and now cooks only what we can eat.
It is bad to be wasteful. I f 7 there is a simple way of not wasting things. That is to use only what we need. In this way we can stop being wasteful.

Passage 2
A young man went to a farm and a 1 for a job. When the old farmer asked what the young man could do to help the farm, he just said, "I can sleep when the wind blows. " This short a_2_ confused the farmer. Although he was a little angry, he liked the young man and h 3 him.
Everything went well until one night, a few days later, when there was a violent storm. The old farmer and his wife quickly woke up and b 4 to check things out to see if all was safe. They found that the doors of the farmhouse had been properly locked. The farmer and his wife then checked their property. They found that the farm tools had been put safely in the house. Even the animals were calm. All was well. After checking everything, they came to the young man's room and found that he was sleeping. The farmer and his wife then understood the m 5 of the young man's words：“I can sleep when the wind blows. ” Because the young man did his work very well when the sky was clear, he had p 6 for the storm before it broke out. So when the wind blew, he was not afraid. He could sleep in peace.

Passage 3
The word “cartoon” came from Italian. It f 1 came to mean the picture before an actual drawing on the wall. Today cartoons are a p 2 of daily lives of most people. Since the 1840s, it has also come to mean any drawing that is humorous, interesting or showing an opinion. It usually a 3 in a newspaper or magazine, with or without a short text. In the mid-19th century, it came into English. People of all ages, especially young c 4 , enjoy all kinds of cartoons in newspapers and magazines, or on television and in movies. Cartoons not only show their life, but help form it. They have set the style of clothing, food, manners and many other things. They have given i_5_ to plays, movies and television series and so on. Names or words from cartoons have also come into modem languages.
Many cartoonists draw with s 6 pens. Some use the computers. Surely, computers are especially useful for the making of cartoons. This helps us to e 7 more lively cartoons.

Passage 4
Have you heard of “ FOMO” “ FOMO” stands for “fear of missing out”. It’s the feeling that you want to know what everyone else is doing at e 1 moment and then worry that everyone is having much more fun than you are. If you suffer from FOMO, you feel the need to c 2 for updates on social media regularly，all through the day and often through the night，too.
But being constantly connected actually leads to a new kind of solitude. Let’s start with when we're alone at home. We want connection with other people, so we reach for our phone to check social media. However, when we see photos and updates of other people having fun, we start feeling l 3 out. We wanted connection but we end up feeling more isolated.
On top of this, even when we're actually enjoying ourselves and are present in the photos, we still aren't satisfied. Now we're afraid of missing a c 4 or an opportunity to take part in a chat. We even interrupt a face-to-face conversation to check updates. In fact, a large number of people now say they p 5 texting to talking because it is easier to control than a real-time conversation. But this really makes it more d 6 to develop relationships and feel close to people.
It seems that we need to think carefully about when and how we choose to use social media. Try to take a moment to be on your own and see how it feels. It might help you enjoy life more and worry less about everywhere and everyone else.

Passage 5
How often do you go on h 1 Going on holiday makes you feel good while you're there --you gain the health benefits for months, new research shows.
Jetting off to exotic destinations such as the Maldives cuts your blood pressure, helps you sleep b 2 and bounce back from stress. The benefits last at l 3 a fortnight longer than the vacation and can be felt for months in some cases. Experts say workers should always take their full holiday entitlement each year -- as many as one in three don't -- to get the benefits.
The s 4 compared holiday makers visiting Thailand, Peru or the Maldives, with people who s 5 at home and continued working. The average blood pressure of those on holiday dropped by 6% , while the workers' blood pressure rise by 2% over the same period. The sleep quality of holiday makers improved by 17% while that of the non-holiday makers deteriorated by 14%.
The study also found the ability of vacationers to recover from stress-- known as the stressresilience test -- improved by 29% . There was a 71% fall in stress resilience scores among workers. The test s 6 a fall in blood glucose (血糖)levels, with the effects sustained for at least 2 weeks after returning home.
The Holiday Health Experiment was conducted by tour operator Kuoni and Nuffield Health, the UK's largest healthcare charity.

Passage 6
Waste can be s 1 everywhere in the school. Some students ask for more food than they can eat, and others often forget to turn o 2 the lights when they leave the classroom. They say they can a 3 these things. But I don't agree with them.
Waste can bring a lot of problems. A 4 China is rich in some resources, we are short of others, for example, fresh water. It is reported that we will have no coal or oil to use in 100 years. So if we go on wasting, what can we use in the future and where can we move Think about it. I think we should say no to the students who waste things every day. Everybody should stop wasting as soon as possible.
In our everyday life, we can do many things to p 5 waste from happening, for example, turn off the lights when we leave the classroom, try not to order more food than we need, and so on. Little by little, everything will be changed. Waste can be s 6 one day, if we do our best.

Scientists say that animals dance, too. But their dancing is d_2__. The “dances” of animals s_3__ messages to other animals. But when people dance, they express feelings about life and love, or about these very human experiences.
Dances are good for you in many ways. For one thing, dancing is good for you physically. It makes your heart work and makes you breathe f_4__. It also makes you use your arms and your legs. If you go dancing often, you can keep physically fit.
You may feel very t 5 after dancing, but you'll probably also feel relaxed and happy. This is another important point about dancing. It gives you a chance to express your feelings and feel better about yourself. If you are angry or upset about something, dancing helps those feelings go a 6 . And finally, some dances are for couples and some are for groups. But all kinds of dances give you a chance to meet new people or to do something enjoyable with friends.

Passage 8
Aerial China, a new documentary series, has been a big hit since it started broadcasting in January. It offers audience visual treat with its footage (影片的镜头)of the breathtaking beauty of China's n 1 landscapes from above.
The series has 34 episodes, each featuring a different place. The first season presents the amazing scenery of six different places: from the tropical i 2_ in Hainan to the historical relics(历史文物) in Shaanxi； from the breathtaking lakes, mountains and prairies(大草原) in Xinjiang to busy ski resorts and dense(茂密的) forests in Heilongjiang; from the old v 3 in Jiangxi to the hustle and bustle(熙熙攘攘) of Shanghai.

Passage 9
We are often told by our parents not to s_1__ more than we have. It seems that the people who run several big US companies never learned that lesson.
Over the past years, a number of the US banks have gone out of business. Millions of people have l__2_their money. Thousands of workers have lost their j 3 . The financial crisis(金融危机) that began in 2007 has taken a turn for the worse.
Experts say that the crisis was c 4 by banks lending too much money. With rising oil prices and falling house prices, many people and companies who borrowed money have found themselves unable to pay it b 5 . This has left the banks out of pockets.
However, the financial storm in the US is now a 6 the rest of the world. If so, China will be one of the first countries to be hurt. No country has lent more than China to the US now. Moreover, the US is one of the largest buyers of Chinese goods. China will s 7 a great loss (遭受巨大损失) if Americans have less money in pockets to spend on Chinese goods.
