They 42 all they have to us but never look forward to getting 43 back..

But what have we done for our parents? 47 we grow up, we have our own ideas and we think we are 48 enough to think and act by ourselves, so we usually dislike their care. 49 , sometimes we don't listen to them; even 50 with them !
To change the 51 , we must act at once, letting them know that we love them, too. In doing so, don't hesitate(犹豫) and don't be 52 . Try our best to understand our parents, 53 something for our parents and not to make them feel hopeless. In a word, make it a duty to bring 54 to our parents, for that's the very sign that we are really mature.

The word “day” has two meanings. When we talk about the number of days in a year, we are using “day” to mean 24 hours. But when we talk about day and night, we are using “day” to mean the time between sunrise and sunset. Since the earth looks like a ball, the sun can shine on only half of it at a time. Always one half of the earth is having day and the other half night. A place is moved from day into night and from night into day over and over by the spinning(旋转)of the earth. At the equator(赤道)day and night are sometimes the same length(长度). They are each twelve hours long. The sun rises at 6 o’clock in the morning and sets at 6 o’clock in the evening. For six months the North Pole(北极)is tilted(倾斜)toward the sun. In those months the Northern Hemisphere(半球)gets more hours of sunlight than the Southern Hemisphere(半球). Days are longer than nights. South of the equator nights are longer than days. For the other six months the North Pole is tilted away from the sun. Then the Southern Hemisphere gets more sunlight. Days are longer than nights. North of the equator nights are longer than days. Winter is the season of long nights. Summer is the season of long days.
( ) 61.When the Western Hemisphere is having day, the Eastern Hemisphere is having________.
A. both day and night B. day C. neither(既不)day nor night D. night
( ) 62. A place is moved from day into night and from night into day over and over by ______ of the earth.

It seems food deliverymen (送货员) are always in a hurry. They wear blue, red or yellow helmets (头盔) and many of them don’t follow traffic rules. They drive on the wrong side of the road and run red lights. They use mobile phones while driving.
These reckless (鲁莽的) behaviors have caught the public’s attention.
In the first half of 2017, food deliverymen had 76 traffic accidents in Shanghai, according to Shanghai Public Security Bureau. That means every two and a half days, a food deliveryman will die or get hurt on the road.
What makes deliverymen take such risks? The strict rules of the food delivery service companies and the anxious (焦急的) customers may be the answer.
Many companies will fine(罚款) a deliveryman up to 2,000 yuan, if he fails to deliver an order on time, reported China Daily. Fines also go to those who get bad reviews(差评) from customers(顾客).
To solve the problem, food delivery service companies need to improve their incentive systems (激励制度), noted CRI Online.
Some cities are also taking action. Shanghai has asked companies to train their deliverymen on traffic rules and safety. Now in Shenzhen, if a deliveryman gets caught breaking traffic rules more than twice, then he will be banned from driving food service delivery vehicles (交通工具) for a whole year .
( )66. The first paragraph mainly tells us that many food deliverymen _____.
A. work very hard B. are good at driving
C. break traffic rules D. use mobile phones too much
( )67. How many traffic accidents did food deliverymen in Shanghai cause in the first half of 2017?
A. 76. B. 38. C. 152. D. 2,000.
( )68. If a food deliveryman _____, the companies will fine him.
A. drives too slowly B. delivers food on time
C. gets bad reviews D. obeys traffic rules
( )69. How many reasons are mentioned(提到) for deliverymen’s taking risks of breaking traffic rules?
A. two B. three C. four D. five
( )70. What is the main idea of the last paragraph?
A. Companies are improving their review systems.
B. Some cities are working to improve the situation.
C. To drive safely, food deliverymen will obey more traffic rules.
D. Food deliverymen cannot drive on important roads in the future.

The great pyramids(金字塔) of Egypt were built more than 4000 years ago as tombs(坟墓) for the kings of that time.In ancient Egypt(古埃及), people believed that when the kings died they became gods in the next life.
To be able to do this, the kings needed their bodies. So their bodies were kept and placed somewhere safe when they died. These kept bodies were called mummies(木乃伊).
The Egyptians thought that pyramids would be a safe place to put the mummies of the kings. They believed that placing the mummies in pyramids would help them to reach heaven, where they would make their new home.
The pyramids were not only tombs for the kings but also wonders of construction. For thousands of years, they were the largest buildings in the world. It wasn’t until the 20th century that bigger buildings were made. Even today, there aren’t many buildings that are taller than them.
The largest of the pyramids was built for Pharaoh Khufu. It is 138 metres tall. It is more than twice as tall as the Sydney Opera House.

How do you feel when you get up in the morning? Happy and active or tired and weak? Do you often wake up with a headache? Well, if the answer is yes, take Dr. Talbot’s advice and start feeling better.
Get up and move. If you hate feeling tired and unhappy, you should start exercising. Try running, swimming or cycling. When we exercise, our body produces special chemicals(化学产品) that give us energy and make us feel happier. If you can’t stand exercising, listen to your favourite music and dance to it. That’s exercise, too.
Eat healthily. You should eat three balanced(平衡) meals every day and you shouldn’t eat too much fast food. If you need some more extra energy the whole day, make an energy drink. Mix together fresh fruit juice and low-fat milk. It tastes great.
Get out close to nature. The smell of flowers will make you feel happy. Even the smell of your favourite food can change the way you feel!
Wake your body up. When you have a shower, change the water from hot to cold and back to hot again. You’ll feel the difference.
