One Sunday, Nicholas, a teenager, went skiing at Sugarloaf Mountain in Maine. In the early afternoon, when he was planning to go home, a fierce snowstorm swept into the area. Unable to see far, he accidentally turned off the path. Before he knew it, Nicholas was lost, all alone! He didn't have food, water, a phone, or other supplies. He was getting colder by the minute.
Nicholas had no idea where he was. He tried not to panic. He thought about all of the survival show she had watched on TV. It was time to put the tips he had learned to use.
He decided to stop skiing. There was a better chance of someone finding him if he stayed put. The first thing he did was to find shelter from the freezing wind and snow. If he didn't, his body temperature would get very low, which could quickly kill him.
Using his skis, Nicholas built a snow cave. He gathered a huge mass of snow and dug out a hole in the middle. Then he piled branches on top of himself, like a blanket, to stay as warm as he could.
By that evening, Nicholas was really hungry. He ate snow and drank water from a nearby stream so that his body wouldn't lose too much water. Not knowing how much longer he could last, Nicholas did the only thing he could-he huddled(蜷缩)in his cave and slept.
The next day, Nicholas went out to look for help, but he couldn't find anyone. He followed his tracks and returned to the snow cave, because without shelter, he could I die that night. On Tuesday, Nicholas went out again to find help. He had walked for about a mile when a volunteer searcher found him.
After two days stuck in the snow, Nicholas was saved. Nicholas might not have survived this snowstorm had it not been for TV. He had often watched Grylls' survival show-Man vs. Wild.

Many may remember the 1998 film Mulan, the story of a young Chinese girl pretending to be a man to take her father's place in the army. After this film was released, McDonald's began to serve a sauce called Mulan SzeChuan Sauce. Also in 2017, a cartoon show Rick and Morty, which featured a mad scientist and his adventures with his grandson, mentioned the SzeChuan sauce. Many fans have queued up for hours to buy it. Packets of the sauce have even appeared on eBay selling for up to $250 each.
However, the sauce created by McDonald's lacks any original Sichuan flavor. As one of the eight great cuisines of China, Sichuan cuisine is famous for its spicy dishes. But Dunlop says it's a common misunderstanding that the cuisine focuses only on heat. "Sichuan cuisine is about complex multilayered flavors," she says. "The really interesting thing about Sichuan cuisine is its variety of flavors. A really good Sichuan meal is like a rollercoaster ride-you have spicy notes, sweet and sour notes, and numbing and gentle flavors," she says.
From the 1990s, Sichuan food took off. Currently, Sichuan hot pot is a hugely popular dish in China and the West, and dishes such as Mapo Tofu and Kung Pao Chicken are all famous and express the techniques and flavors of Sichuan cooking. Chef Key Chan, 65, born in Hong Kong into a family of chefs originally from Sichuan, is keen on passing down how to cook Sichuan cuisine. "Sichuan cuisine allows the tip of your tongue to feel a' dancing sensation'," says Chan.
12. Why are Mulan and Rick and Morty mentioned in Paragraph 1
A. To inform kids of wonderful films.
B. To remind people of the cartoon characters.
C. To show how popular the SzeChuan sauce was.
D. To indicate how expensive the SzeChuan sauce was.
13. What can we know about Sichuan cuisine from Paragraph 2
A. It only focuses on heat.
B. It involves various flavors.
C. It is the greatest cuisine in China.
D. It is best represented by the SzeChuan sause.
14. Which of the following best explains "took off" underlined in Paragraph 3
A. Left in a hurry.
B. Was quickly forgotten.
C. Began to fly.
D. Became popular quickly.
15. How does Chan feel about Sichuan cuisine
A. Amazing.
B. Just so-so.
C. Simple.
D. Strange.

Work on a puzzle. It can be anything from the newspaper crossword or the new Sudoku puzzle. Puzzles help you use your brain to figure out the answers. 20 Your brain needs exercise just like your body does to be able to function in top form.

阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段, 使之构成一篇完整的短文。
At sixty degrees below zero, Harry walked down the trail on a cold, gray day. Pure white snow and ice covered the earth for as far as he could see. This was his first winter in Alaska. He was wearing heavy clothes and fur boots, but he still felt cold and uncomfortable.
Harry was on his way to a camp near Henderson Creek where his friends were waiting. He expected to reach Henderson Creek by six o'clock that evening. It would be dark by then. He was refreshed when he realized his friends would have a fire and hot food ready for him. To make things better, there was a dog accompanying him on the journey.
The dog loved its owner but did not like the extreme cold. It knew the weather was too cold to travel. In spite of this bad situation, Harry with the dog continued to walk down the trail. He came to a frozen stream called Indian Creek. He began to walk on the snow-covered ice. It was a trail that would lead him straight to his friends.
As he walked, Harry looked carefully at the ice in front of him. Once, he stopped suddenly, and then walked around a part of the frozen stream. He saw an underground spring flowing under the ice at that spot. It made the ice thin. If he stepped there, he might break through the ice into a pool of water. To get his boots wet in such cold weather might kill him. His feet would turn to ice quickly and he would freeze to death.
At about twelve o' clock, Harry decided to stop to eat his lunch. He took off the glove on his right hand, opened his jacket and pulled out his food, which took less than twenty seconds. Yet, his fingers began to freeze.
Harry hit his hand against his leg several times until he felt a sharp pain. Then he quickly put his glove on his hand. He made a fire, beginning with small pieces of wood and adding larger ones. He sat on a snow-covered log and ate his lunch, enjoying the warm fire for a few minutes. Then he stood up and started walking on the frozen stream again.
注意:续写词数应为150左右。
Paragraph 1:
Several minutes later, the ice broke suddenly and Harry's feet sank into the water. ________________________________________________________________
Paragraph 2:
What's worse, his dog ran away and the fear of death came over Harry. _______________________________________________________________
