［2019·云南昆明一中高一期末］People in the United States honor their parents with two special days： Mother’s Day，on the second Sunday in May，and Father’s Day，on the third Sunday in June. These days are set aside to show love and respect for parents. They raise their children and educate them to be responsible citizens. They give love and care. These two days make us think about the changing roles of mothers and fathers. More mothers now work outside the home. More fathers must help with child care.
These two special days are celebrated in many different ways. On Mother’s Day people wear carnations. A red one symbolizes a living mother. A white one shows that the mother is dead. It is also a day when people whose parents are dead visit the cemetery（墓地）. On these days families get together at home，as well as in restaurants. They often have outdoor barbecues for Father’s Day. These are days of fun and good feelings and memories.
Another tradition is to give cards and gifts. Children make them in school. Many people make their own presents. These are valued more than the ones bought in stores. It is not the value of the gift that is important，but it is“the thought that counts”. Greeting card stores， florists，candy makers，bakeries，telephone companies， and other stores do a lot of business during these holidays.
1. Which of the following is NOT a reason for children to show love and respect for parents?
A. Parents bring up children.
B. Parents give love and care to children.
C. Parents educate children to be good persons.
D. Parents pass away before children grow up.
2. What do you think “florists” do?

D. They sell special gifts for Mother’s Day and Father’s Day.

4. On Mother’s Day and Father’s Day， .

October 15th is Global Handwashing Day. Activities are planned in more than twenty countries to get millions of people in the developing world to wash their hands with soap.
Experts say people around the world wash their hands but very few use soap at so-called important moments. These include after using the toilet，after bathing a baby’s bottom and before touching food.
Global Handwashing Day is the idea of the Global Public-Private Partnership for Handwashing（PPPHW）. The goal，they say，is to create a culture of handwashing with soap. The organizers say all soap is equally useful in removing disease-causing germs（细菌）. They say the correct way to wash is to wet your hands with a little water and cover them with soap. Rub（搓）it into all areas， including under the fingernails. Then，wash well under running water. Finally，dry your hands with a clean cloth.
The PPPHW says soap is important because it increases the time that people spend washing. Soap also helps to break up the dirt that holds most of the germs. And it usually leaves a pleasant smell，which increases the chances that people will wash again.
It also says that washing hands with soap before eating and after using the toilet could save more lives than any medicine. It could help reduce cases of diarrhea（痢疾）， which is the second biggest cause of child deaths，killing more than one and a half million children a year.
5. What does the author intend to tell us in the passage?
A. To keep healthy by washing hands. B. To wash hands with soap.
C. To take action to wash hands. D. To wash hands often.
6. Which of the following is the right way to wash hands?
a. Washing hands well under running water. b. Covering hand with soap.
c. Drying hands. d. Rubbing hand with soap. e. Wetting hands.
A. a-c-b-e-d B. e-d-a-b-c
C. a-c-b-d-e D. e-b-d-a-c

7. Which fact can’t explain why soap is important?
A. It gives people a longer handwashing time.
B. It helps to remove a lot of germs from hands.
C. Its smell attracts people to more handwashing.
D. It calls for people to form the habit of washing hands.
8. According to the last paragraph，diarrhea is a disease that .
A. kills half of the kids in the developing countries a year
B. causes the greatest number of child deaths
C. can be reduced to some degree by washing hands with soap
D. can’t be cured without washing hands

［2019·云南昆明一中高一期末］People in the United States honor their parents with two special days： Mother’s Day，on the second Sunday in May，and Father’s Day，on the third Sunday in June. These days are set aside to show love and respect for parents. They raise their children and educate them to be responsible citizens. They give love and care. These two days make us think about the changing roles of mothers and fathers. More mothers now work outside the home. More fathers must help with child care.
These two special days are celebrated in many different ways. On Mother’s Day people wear carnations. A red one symbolizes a living mother. A white one shows that the mother is dead. It is also a day when people whose parents are dead visit the cemetery（墓地）. On these days families get together at home，as well as in restaurants. They often have outdoor barbecues for Father’s Day. These are days of fun and good feelings and memories.
Another tradition is to give cards and gifts. Children make them in school. Many people make their own presents. These are valued more than the ones bought in stores. It is not the value of the gift that is important，but it is“the thought that counts”. Greeting card stores， florists，candy makers，bakeries，telephone companies， and other stores do a lot of business during these holidays.
1. Which of the following is NOT a reason for children to show love and respect for parents?

C. Parents educate children to be good persons.
D. Parents pass away before children grow up.
2. What do you think “florists” do?
A. They sell flowers.
B. They make and sell bread.
C. They offer enough room for having family parties.
D. They sell special gifts for Mother’s Day and Father’s Day.

October 15th is Global Handwashing Day. Activities are planned in more than twenty countries to get millions of people in the developing world to wash their hands with soap.
Experts say people around the world wash their hands but very few use soap at so-called important moments. These include after using the toilet，after bathing a baby’s bottom and before touching food.
Global Handwashing Day is the idea of the Global Public-Private Partnership for Handwashing（PPPHW）. The goal，they say，is to create a culture of handwashing with soap. The organizers say all soap is equally useful in removing disease-causing germs（细菌）. They say the correct way to wash is to wet your hands with a little water and cover them with soap. Rub（搓）it into all areas， including under the fingernails. Then，wash well under running water. Finally，dry your hands with a clean cloth.
The PPPHW says soap is important because it increases the time that people spend washing. Soap also helps to break up the dirt that holds most of the germs. And it usually leaves a pleasant smell，which increases the chances that people will wash again.
It also says that washing hands with soap before eating and after using the toilet could save more lives than any medicine. It could help reduce cases of diarrhea（痢疾）， which is the second biggest cause of child deaths，killing more than one and a half million children a year.
5. What does the author intend to tell us in the passage?
A. To keep healthy by washing hands. B. To wash hands with soap.
C. To take action to wash hands. D. To wash hands often.
6. Which of the following is the right way to wash hands?
a. Washing hands well under running water. b. Covering hand with soap.
c. Drying hands. d. Rubbing hand with soap. e. Wetting hands.
A. a-c-b-e-d B. e-d-a-b-c
