We usually have a runny nose when catching a cold. Yet our parents tell us not to blow our nose so hard. Why is that
When we blow our nose very hard, the air can move from our nose to our ears and cause problems. When we have a cold, the tube that connects our nose to our ears gets smaller. So the air can’t go back to the nose and stays in the ear. This can hurt the eardrum (鼓膜) and might make our ears ring or even cause hearing problems.
If the air from the nose goes into the eyes, it can make the pressure in the eyes go up. This might cause different eye problems and even affect (影响) how well we can see in the long run. This is why, sometimes, when you blow your nose too hard, both your eyes and ears may feel uncomfortable.
To clear your nose the right way, just close one nostril (鼻孔) at a time and softly blow. If your nose is blocked up, putting a warm towel (毛巾) on your nose and forehead (前额) can also help you feel better.
Since your nose and throat are connected, you can also try to get the mucus (粘液) out from your mouth. It’s a good idea to take a deep breath with the nose, then cough quickly to get out the mucus in your mouth.
( )1.Why do parents advise us not to blow our nose too hard
A.Because it can cause a headache.
B.Because it might lead to ear and eye problems.
C.Because it can spread the cold virus.
( )2.What happens when air from the nose goes into the ears
A.It can cause hearing problems.
B.It makes the ears warmer.
C.It helps to clear the ears.
( )3.How can it affect your eyes if you blow your nose too hard
A.It can cause the eyes to water and become red.
B.It can help eyes feel comfortable.
C.It can make the pressure higher in the eyes.
( )4.According to the passage, which of the following is the best way to blow your nose
A.Use a warm towel on your eyes and forehead.
B.Close one nostril at a time and blow softly.
C.Take a deep breath and cough out the mucus.
( )5.What does the writer mainly talk about in the passage
A.The science behind catching a cold.
B.The reason why you shouldn’t blow your nose too hard.
C.The dangers of blowing your nose too hard.

Every year, as the summer days grow shorter, an amazing change happens in Canadian forests. As summer changes to autumn, the trees turn colors, changing from summer green to shades of red, orange, and yellow.
My grandmother told me that a strange man came at night with a paint brush to paint the leaves those wonderful colors. And I believed her, for it was a wonderful way of explaining this change to a little boy. But as I grew older, my natural curiosity (好奇) led me to do some research on my own.
Trees need food, just like all lives. Leaves produce food for the tree. It’s just sugar, which is sometimes called glucose (葡萄糖). Leaves use sunlight to change water and CO2 into oxygen (氧气). The process is known as photo-synthesis (光合作用). A chemical called chlorophyll (叶绿素) helps make this happen. Chlorophyll is the reason why leaves are green in summer.
However, Canadian winters are long, cold and dark. There isn’t enough sunshine in winter for the leaves to make food. In autumn, as the days shorten, the trees get a message to slow down. It’s time to take a rest. Don’t worry, though. They have enough food prepared to last all winter.
When the leaves stop making food, they no longer need to make chlorophyll. Slowly, the chlorophyll disappears. Remember, this is the chemical that makes leaves green. As the chlorophyll goes away, so does the green color. We begin to see the other colors that are always there. We could not see them before because green is a strong color.
( )1.The writer thought ________ changed the color of leaves in autumn when he was a child.
A.the wind B.a strange man C.the sun D.his grandmother
( )2.Which of the following can NOT help make the photo-synthesis happen
A.Water. B.CO2 C.Glucose. D.Chlorophyll.
( )3.Why do leaves become red, orange and yellow in autumn
A.Because the chlorophyll goes away in the leaves.
B.Because green color has a chemical change with sunlight.
C.Because the trees need more food in winter.
D.Because cold and dark environment can make new colors
( )4.Which of the following shows the structure of this passage (①= Paragraph 1)
A. B. C. D.
( )5.What is the passage mainly about
A.What magic chemicals we have now. B.What food trees need during a year.
C.How a strange man painted trees. D.Why leaves change colors in autumn.
D
