Tea is an important part of Chinese tradition．Tea has very close relationship to Chinese culture．
It is said that Chinese tea was discovered by King Shen Nong．People say that he lived 5，000years ago．One summer day，while he was visiting a faraway part of his country，he felt very thirsty．The servants began to make water hot enough to turn into gas for him to drink．Dried leaves from a near plant fell into the water．The king drank some，and found it could make him feel less tired．Also as a scientist，Shen Nong was interested in the new drink．And so，tea was created in 2737BC．
Drinking tea has many advantages．It makes people feel less tired，clears heat inside the human body and helps people lose weight．As you add a cup of tea to your daily life，please check the following helpful advice．

•Do not drink too much strong tea．It will probably be harmful to your stomach and make you feel sick if you make the tea too strong．
•The best time to drink tea is between meals．It may not make you have a strong wish to eat when your stomach is empty，or cause stomachache when your stomach is full．•Do not drink with medicine．It may change the medical result．You can drink tea two hours after you take medicine．
•Green tea is the best choice for office workers．Why？Because green tea helps stop the bad result of the puter．

Every year， 1.5 million kids around the world die as a result of not getting vaccines （疫苗）． This is partly because transporting and storing medicines can be a huge challenge in some countries．
Anurudh Ganesan， 17， knows this firsthand． When he was a baby in India， his grandparents carried him 10 miles to a health clinic in a remote village to receive a vaccine． But by the time they arrived， the vaccines were no longer usable because they had been overheated．
Vaccines， Anurudh later learned， must be kept cool to stay effective． But refrigerating them requires electricity or ice - precious resources that many developing countries lack．
Although Anurudh eventually received the vaccine he needed， his experience as a baby and the sad reality that so many other children aren't as lucky motivated him to take action． The high school student invented Vaxxwagon， a portable vaccine-carrying device that generates its own power to keep lifesaving medicines cool as they're delivered to remote areas around the world．
Anurudh first got his idea for Vaxxwagon in xx． He read several textbooks to learn everything he could about refrigeration， and then he did research online to learn more about vaccines． Rather than relying on electricity or ice， Anurudh figured out a way to use wheels to power a refrigeration system for about eight hours． The
entire rechargeable cooling system can be pulled to areas in need of vaccines by a bicycle， a car， or an animal． Eventually， Anurudh took his design to professors at Johns Hopkins University for advice． Not only did they confirm Vaxxwagon could work， but they offered him funding to help build it．
Anurudh was rewarded with the xx Google Science Fair LEGO Education Builder Award for his invention． Anurudh says his final goal is to start selling Vaxxwagon to relief organizations， so it can be used to help people around the world．
Anurudh， who plans to pursue engineering degree in college， says， "Don't give up on your ideas． But always try to help others with your projects． That's the point of engineering - to help people．"
28Why do many children die every year？ ______
A. They lack qualified medical teams．
B. They cannot afford usable medicines．
C. They don't have an electricity system．
D. They have no access to effective vaccines．
29What is special about Vaxxwagon？ ______
A. It can serve as a fridge．
B. It can produce safe vaccines．
C. It can detect deadly diseases．
D. It can be a means of transport．
30Which of the following words can best describe Anurudh？ ______
A. Caring and creative．
B. Modest and sympathetic．
C. Loyal and determined．
D. Honest and hard-working．
31What can we learn from the story？ ______
A. Practice makes perfect．
B. One good turn deserves another．
C. Motivation is the mother of success．
D. All things are difficult before they are easy．
D
There is an old Chinese proverb that states “One Generation plants t he trees; another gets the shade,” and this is how it should be with mothers and daughters. The relationship between a mother and daughter is sometimes confusing. If close, the relationship can be similar to friendship. However, the mother and daughter relationship has unique characteristics that distinguish it from a friendship. These characteristics include a hierarchy(等级) of responsibility and unconditional love, which preclude mothers and daughters from being best friends.
Marina, 27 years old, sa ys, “I love spending time with my mom, but I wouldn’t consider her my best friend. Best friends don’t pay for your wedding. Best friends don’t remind you how they carried you in their body and gave you life! Best friends don’t tell you how wise they are be cause they have been alive at least 20 years longer than you.” This doesn’t mean that the mother and daughter relationship canˈt be very close and satisfying .While some adult relationships are still troubled, many find them to be extremely rewarding. This generation of mothers and adult daughters has a lot in mon which increases the likelihood of shared panionship. Mothers and daughters have always shared the mon experience of being homemakers, responsible for maintaining and passing on family values and traditions. Today contemporary mothers and daughters also share the experience of the workforce and technology, which may bring them even closer together.
Best friends may or may not continue to be best friends, but for better or worse, the mother and daughter relationship is permanent, even if for some unfortunate reason they aren’t speaking. The mother and child relationship is closer than any other. There is not an equal relationship. Daughters should not feel responsible for their mother’s emotional well-being. It isn’t that they don’t care deeply about their mothers. It’s just that they shouldn’t be burdened with their mother’s well being.
The mother and daughter relationship is a relationship that is not replaceable by any other. Mothers never stop being mothers, which includes frequently wanting
to protect their daughters and often feeling responsible for their happiness. Mother always “trumps”(王牌) friend.
32What does the underlined word “preclude” in Paragraph 1 probably mean?
A. Differ.
B. Prevent.
C. Benefit.
D. Change.
33What do we know from the text?
A. The mother and daughter relationship can be replaced by a best friend.
B. A mother’s love brings her and her daughter a close friendship.
C. The mother and daughter relationship goes beyond best friends’ friendship.
D. Marina has a troubled relationship with her mother.
34How does the author mainly prove his statements?
A. By listing data.
B. By giving explanations.
C. By quoting sayings.
D. By making examples.
35What is the best title for the text?
A. How to be a good mother and daughter？
B. Who is a mother’s best friend?
C. Mother or friend?
D. Can a mother be a daughter’s best friend?

It's mon to see food delivery workers riding electric bikes in a hurry through big cities in China. Some of them even risk (61) (run) red lights to deliver their meals in time. However, such careless behavior often causes serious problems.

In fact, food delivery workers are often under high (64) (press) from their employers. They face pany fines for delivering food late. Moreover, the more orders they take, the more money they can earn, (65) leads to some workers checking (66) (they)mobile phones for new orders while they are riding their bikes.

2． take改为took，考查时态，描述过去的事情，所以用一般过去时态．
3． but改为and，考查连词，前后词为顺承关系，所以用and连接
4． was改为were，考查主谓一致，主语为复数名词，所以用were．
5． what改为how，考查固定搭配，show后面跟疑问词+不定式，表示"如何"，所以用how+不定式．
6． explain改为explaining，考查现在分词，句子主语和explain之间是主动关系，所以用现在分词作状语．
7． amazing改为amazed，考查形容词，表示"吃惊的"，所以用形容词amazed作表语．8． wait后面加to，考查不定式，wait to do等着做．
9． funs改为fun，考查名词的数，fun为不可数名词，无复数．
10． an改为the，考查固定搭配，in the end最后．
书面表达. Dear Xiao Dong,
I am very sorry to hear that you are having trouble with your middle school life. However, the situation is very easy to change if you take my advice. Here are some tips to help you:
First of all, you should be friendly to anyone who you meet at the new school and try to make friends with them. And it is also a good idea to take part in after-school activities. That can make you happy. Secondly, Why not choose some proper ways to relax. In my opinion, taking exercise, watching TV or playing puter games is a good way to relax yourself. Thirdly, I agree that you should study hard and have a good preparation for every class so that you can understand the teacher.
I hope that you will find these tips useful.
Yours,
Li Hua
