A couple had a son eleven years after they married. They were a loving couple and the boy was the apple of their eye. When the boy was around four years old, one day the father was very tired after work so he asked his wife to pick up their son. The mother, who was very busy in the kitchen, totally forgot about it.
Later the boy lost his way on the street. When the son was found missing, the mother hurried to look for him, but she didn’t find him. The mother felt very sad and didn’t know how to face her husband.
When the father went to the police station after hearing that the son was missing, he looked at his wife and said just four words. What do you think the four words were The husband just said "I love you, darling. "
The son was missing. If he had picked him up earlier, this would not have happened. There is no point in blaming (责备) anyone. His wife had also lost her only child. What his wife needed at that moment was comfort and understanding from her husband. That is what the husband gave his wife. Several weeks later, with the help of the police, the couple finally found their lost son. The family’s relationship became stronger over that time.
Sometimes we spend lots of time asking who is to blame. We miss many chances to give each other support and let each other feel the warmth of human relationships. Get rid of all your unwillingness to forgive, selfishness, and fears and you will find the world is much more wonderful.

To raise money for restaurant workers who had to stay at home during COVID, two brothers, Aiden and Louis Ardine, decided to walk 3,200 miles across America to raise money.
Having just arrived on the sands of the Pacific Ocean, Aiden and Louis Ardine have now completed their five-month walk which started on the Asbury Park boardwalk in New Jersey. They hoped to raise $30,000 for some charities (慈善组织) that were helping restaurant workers waiting for lockdown (隔离) to end, but ended up making $70,000 — which they gave way to the COCO Fund and the Restaurant Workers’ Community Foundation.
“This would not have been possible without the help of a huge community of people, whether people were donating or helping us guide our way across the United States. ” said Aiden Ardine. “This was surely an adventure full of hope, and it proved people are born good and want to help their neighbors. ”
Just like cross-country trips in this nation, their journey was characterized by amazing views, long roads, and helpful strangers: like a man who passed them in the extreme heat of summertime Iowa, before doubling back and giving them a cold Gatorade; or a Nevada campground manager who left them stay for free.
In Utah they had what the naturalist John Muir would have described as an “interview” with a black bear, when rounding a corner in the path, they found themselves within a few feet of it.
When they reached San Francisco, their supporters were waiting for them on the beach. Afterwards they flew home along with their mom who had been there to meet them. After their adventurous stay away from home, we can only imagine she was really feeling proud of her sons.
8．What did the two brothers collect money for
A．Setting up some charities. B．Helping to end the lockdown.
C．Completing their five-month walk. D．Aiding restaurant workers stuck at home.
9．Which word can best describe the two brothers
A．Humorous. B．Caring. C．Curious. D．Honest.
10．What happened to the brothers in Utah
A．They met with a bear. B．They were interviewed.
C．They visited a naturalist. D．They were lost in the path.
11．Which of the following is a suitable title for the text
A．A Long Journey B．Walk with Love
C．A Proud Mother D．Adventure with Fun
The world is full of tea drinkers. For many, they simply enjoy the taste. But new research suggests tea might help those who drink it live longer than those who do not. Tea is known to contain substances that can help reduce inflammation（炎症）. Past studies in China and Japan have suggested several health benefits of green tea. Now, scientists say black tea may show similar benefits.
Scientists from the United States National Cancer Institute carried out the study. They examined years of data gathered about the tea-drinking behavior of almost 500,000 adults in Britain, where black tea is the most common tea. The study found that high tea intake （摄取量） — two or more cups a day — was linked to a moderate benefit: a 9 to 13 percent lower risk of death from any cause than non-tea drinkers. Scientists say the lowered risk of death held true for study subjects with heart disease. However, researchers said there was no clear finding in connection with deaths from cancer.
Tea contains various elements, including polyphenols（多酚）. Polyphenols are considered responsible for the health benefits that have traditionally been linked to tea, especially green tea. Green tea is reported to improve mental ability, alleviate digestive problems and head pain, and help people with weight loss. It has also been studied for possible protective effects against heart disease and cancer.
However, the study of British tea drinkers was based on observing people's behaviors and health. This kind of methodology cannot prove cause and effect. "Observational studies like this always raise the question: Is there something else that makes tea drinkers healthier " said Marion Nestle, a professor of food studies at New York University. The study does not offer enough evidence to advise people to change their tea behaviors. "If you drink one cup a day already, I think that is good," said Inoue-Choi, who led the study.
12．What does the new study mainly focus on
A. The effects of tea on health.
B. The popularity of tea culture.
C. The harmful substances in tea.
D. The right amount of tea intake.
13．According to the study, people with high tea intake tend to.
A. stay focused B. develop cancer
C. get heart disease D. have a lower risk of death
14．What does the underlined word "alleviate" in paragraph 3 probably mean
A. Cause. B. Worsen. C. Relieve. D. Hide.
15．What does the author intend to do in the last paragraph
A. To provide advice on how to drink tea.
B. To point out the possible limitations of the study.
C. To stress the significance of the research findings.
D. To offer supporting evidence for the research results

When my sister, Dona, and I were little kids, my parents both joined the army. They stayed far away from our town and hardly returned home. My grandpa took on the big responsibility of taking care of us. Still, without our parents by our side, Dona and I sometimes felt lonely and sad, especially one winter.
One morning in that winter when Dona and I were sitting in our bedroom, dull and quiet, Grandpa said, “My dear, how about trying skating for fun ” Our faces immediately lit up and we answered together, “Great, we surely like it, Grandpa!”
He smiled and quickly set about building us a skating rink (溜冰场) in our yard. The process of building a skating rink was not easy. First, Grandpa laid out long wooden boards around the yard. Next, he made the base of the rink flat. Grandpa then began spraying the water, lightly at first, until the first layer of ice was established. He would then put some water onto the ice each night. And thus, the ice became thicker and thicker.
In the darkness of the night, from the kitchen window Dona and I watched Grandpa with great expectations. His back and shoulders rounded to protect him from the freezing wind. He stood alone, busying himself creating a perfect skating rink for us. The only light was from the moon and stars.
One night, Grandpa suddenly pressed his waist and the look on his face showed he was painful. Quite concerned, Dona and I rushed out and asked, “Grandpa! What’s wrong ” “My waist is painful. Don’t worry! I’ll be fine just after a little rest,” he smiled. Dona and I offered to help create the rink. But he said it was too cold outside at night and that building the rink needs much experience and lots of skills. Then, we gave up the idea of offering him a hand, but demanded he build the rink a few days later. Seeing we were determined, he walked into the room with us and had warm tea. Before long, Dona and I were tired and went to bed.
注意：1.续写词数应为150个左右。

When we fell asleep, Grandpa quietly walked out into the yard.

A couple had a son eleven years after they married. They were a loving couple and the boy was the apple of their eye. When the boy was around four years old, one day the father was very tired after work so he asked his wife to pick up their son. The mother, who was very busy in the kitchen, totally forgot about it.
Later the boy lost his way on the street. When the son was found missing, the mother hurried to look for him, but she didn’t find him. The mother felt very sad and didn’t know how to face her husband.
When the father went to the police station after hearing that the son was missing, he looked at his wife and said just four words. What do you think the four words were The husband just said "I love you, darling. "
The son was missing. If he had picked him up earlier, this would not have happened. There is no point in blaming (责备) anyone. His wife had also lost her only child. What his wife needed at that moment was comfort and understanding from her husband. That is what the husband gave his wife. Several weeks later, with the help of the police, the couple finally found their lost son. The family’s relationship became stronger over that time.
Sometimes we spend lots of time asking who is to blame. We miss many chances to give each other support and let each other feel the warmth of human relationships. Get rid of all your unwillingness to forgive, selfishness, and fears and you will find the world is much more wonderful.

To raise money for restaurant workers who had to stay at home during COVID, two brothers, Aiden and Louis Ardine, decided to walk 3,200 miles across America to raise money.
Having just arrived on the sands of the Pacific Ocean, Aiden and Louis Ardine have now completed their five-month walk which started on the Asbury Park boardwalk in New Jersey. They hoped to raise $30,000 for some charities (慈善组织) that were helping restaurant workers waiting for lockdown (隔离) to end, but ended up making $70,000 — which they gave way to the COCO Fund and the Restaurant Workers’ Community Foundation.
“This would not have been possible without the help of a huge community of people, whether people were donating or helping us guide our way across the United States. ” said Aiden Ardine. “This was surely an adventure full of hope, and it proved people are born good and want to help their neighbors. ”
Just like cross-country trips in this nation, their journey was characterized by amazing views, long roads, and helpful strangers: like a man who passed them in the extreme heat of summertime Iowa, before doubling back and giving them a cold Gatorade; or a Nevada campground manager who left them stay for free.
In Utah they had what the naturalist John Muir would have described as an “interview” with a black bear, when rounding a corner in the path, they found themselves within a few feet of it.
When they reached San Francisco, their supporters were waiting for them on the beach. Afterwards they flew home along with their mom who had been there to meet them. After their adventurous stay away from home, we can only imagine she was really feeling proud of her sons.
8．What did the two brothers collect money for
A．Setting up some charities. B．Helping to end the lockdown.
C．Completing their five-month walk. D．Aiding restaurant workers stuck at home.
9．Which word can best describe the two brothers

The world is full of tea drinkers. For many, they simply enjoy the taste. But new research suggests tea might help those who drink it live longer than those who do not. Tea is known to contain substances that can help reduce inflammation（炎症）. Past studies in China and Japan have suggested several health benefits of green tea. Now, scientists say black tea may show similar benefits.
Scientists from the United States National Cancer Institute carried out the study. They examined years of data gathered about the tea-drinking behavior of almost 500,000 adults in Britain, where black tea is the most common tea. The study found that high tea intake （摄取量） — two or more cups a day — was linked to a moderate benefit: a 9 to 13 percent lower risk of death from any cause than non-tea drinkers. Scientists say the lowered risk of death held true for study subjects with heart disease. However, researchers said there was no clear finding in connection with deaths from cancer.
Tea contains various elements, including polyphenols（多酚）. Polyphenols are considered responsible for the health benefits that have traditionally been linked to tea, especially green tea. Green tea is reported to improve mental ability, alleviate digestive problems and head pain, and help people with weight loss. It has also been studied for possible protective effects against heart disease and cancer.
However, the study of British tea drinkers was based on observing people's behaviors and health. This kind of methodology cannot prove cause and effect. "Observational studies like this always raise the question: Is there something else that makes tea drinkers healthier " said Marion Nestle, a professor of food studies at New York University. The study does not offer enough evidence to advise people to change their tea behaviors. "If you drink one cup a day already, I think that is good," said Inoue-Choi, who led the study.
12．What does the new study mainly focus on
A. The effects of tea on health.
B. The popularity of tea culture.
C. The harmful substances in tea.
D. The right amount of tea intake.
13．According to the study, people with high tea intake tend to.
A. stay focused B. develop cancer
C. get heart disease D. have a lower risk of death
14．What does the underlined word "alleviate" in paragraph 3 probably mean
A. Cause. B. Worsen. C. Relieve. D. Hide.
15．What does the author intend to do in the last paragraph
A. To provide advice on how to drink tea.
B. To point out the possible limitations of the study.
C. To stress the significance of the research findings.
D. To offer supporting evidence for the research results

When my sister, Dona, and I were little kids, my parents both joined the army. They stayed far away from our town and hardly returned home. My grandpa took on the big responsibility of taking care of us. Still, without our parents by our side, Dona and I sometimes felt lonely and sad, especially one winter.
One morning in that winter when Dona and I were sitting in our bedroom, dull and quiet, Grandpa said, “My dear, how about trying skating for fun ” Our faces immediately lit up and we answered together, “Great, we surely like it, Grandpa!”
He smiled and quickly set about building us a skating rink (溜冰场) in our yard. The process of building a skating rink was not easy. First, Grandpa laid out long wooden boards around the yard. Next, he made the base of the rink flat. Grandpa then began spraying the water, lightly at first, until the first layer of ice was established. He would then put some water onto the ice each night. And thus, the ice became thicker and thicker.
In the darkness of the night, from the kitchen window Dona and I watched Grandpa with great expectations. His back and shoulders rounded to protect him from the freezing wind. He stood alone, busying himself creating a perfect skating rink for us. The only light was from the moon and stars.
One night, Grandpa suddenly pressed his waist and the look on his face showed he was painful. Quite concerned, Dona and I rushed out and asked, “Grandpa! What’s wrong ” “My waist is painful. Don’t worry! I’ll be fine just after a little rest,” he smiled. Dona and I offered to help create the rink. But he said it was too cold outside at night and that building the rink needs much experience and lots of skills. Then, we gave up the idea of offering him a hand, but demanded he build the rink a few days later. Seeing we were determined, he walked into the room with us and had warm tea. Before long, Dona and I were tired and went to bed.
注意：1.续写词数应为150个左右。

We skated in the cold for what felt like hours laughing and dancing, creating memories that would last a lifetime. Grandpa was proud of what he had accomplished and happy to see us having so much fun. Now we always remember the special gift, which Grandpa built with great love.
