The smiling face of Santa Claus appears all across China．Local governments are decorating trees and lamp posts with lights and ornaments．At first glance，visitors would think they were in Europe．
Despite the fact that most Chinese are not Christians，Christmas season has become increasingly popular．
"If you walked around major Chinese cities 15 years ago，you wouldn`t have seen many signs of Christmas．However，if you were to visit those same Chinese cities again today，you’d be surprised to see signs of Christmas almost everywhere，" says Cai Jiming，a professor with Tsinghua University，who has served as an expert in developing China`s holiday schedule．
Although Christmas is not a public holiday，many Chinese cities are still getting into the Christmas spirit．
Cai says his e-mail inbox and cell phone have been flooded with messages wishing him a merry Christmas．The greetings have been coming in since the end of November．
In his view，Christmas seems like a "warm-up" for the truly important coming month-long Spring Festival．
However，despite the prevalence (流行)of Christmas celebrations，for most Chinese，it neither means a religious celebration nor an occasion for family reunions．Instead，it is a time for relaxing with friends，a time to shop，a time to have a party and it is especially a time for romance．
"I expect my boyfriend to take me out on Christmas Eve and I expect a romantic night，" says Christine Zhou，28，a hotel manager in Beijing．"It seems to me that everything associated with Christmas time is romantic．"
On the streets，rose and chocolate peddlers are vying （竞争）for their business．
Christmas has become another Valentine`s Day，and at the same time，more people feel it is a time to reward themselves with good food and a good time．
However，as more Chinese join in the Christmas celebrations each year，some feel the Western-based festival is harming time-honored traditions．
But Cai considers it is unnecessary to boycott （抵制）a Western cultural festival．"All important festivals in different cultures have now developed into universal holidays，" he says．”
1.From the first paragraph，we know________．
A．Christmas has become the most important festival in China
B．Christmas is celebrated by a great number of people in China
C．Santa Claus doesn’t appear in Europe any more on Christmas
D．The smiling faces of Santa Claus are hung on the trees in local governments
2.Professor Cai Jiming’s words in the third paragraph are used to________．
A．show he is a famous expert in China’s holiday schedule
B．prove Tsinghua University is the best university in China
C．prove Christmas season has become more and more popular
D．show great changes have taken place in China
3.Christmas celebrations for Chinese people mean_____．
A．a religious celebration．
B．an occasion for family to get together．
C．a lover’s celebration．
D．relaxing with friends and a time for romance．
4.What’s the best title of the text？
A．Christmas in Europe
B．Chinese celebrating Christmas holiday
C．Romantic holiday－Valentine’s Day
D．The smiling face of Santa Claus

Like human beings，dogs may catch cold because of cold weather，wet conditions or can also get it from other sick dogs．If a dog has a running nose and watery eyes，coughs or sneezes(打喷嚏），then it is quite probable that the dog has caught cold．
A dog's cold can get over after a few days without treatment but it totally depends upon the owner to treat it with medications or improve its immune power （免疫力） to get rid of the cold naturally．Following are some of the things you can do if your dog gets a cold．
You can improve its immune power by giving it proper nutrient diet．Healthy food can really do wonders．Try to give it food which is either suggested by the vet（兽医）or is healthy for your pet．Increase the intake of food which is rich in vitamins A，C and E．
Keep your dog warm．The best place for your dog in winter is inside your house．Do not keep your dog outside when it is cold and wet．At home you can also keep the dog warm with the help of carpets．This will make him comfortable and help him to recover fast．
Increase the fluid（流质）intake as it helps a lot．Water can be the best choice but you can also add broth （肉汤）in water which will give your dog strength．Warm water will make your dog more comfortable and will also keep the dog away from the respiratory infections（呼吸道感染）．
Steam treatment is considered to be effective in getting rid of cold．It makes the nasal（鼻的） passage (通道)wet，which helps proper breathing．Just fill your bathroom with steam and leave your dog inside the bathroom for 15 minutes．Do it nearly 2 to 3 times a day and you will see your dog recovering．
These are some of the things you can do to help your dog recover from cold．However，if you are not able to find any improvement in its health，then turn to the vet for help immediately．Take your dog for regular checkups so as to avoid complications（并发症）．
1.rom the first paragraph we know about __________．
A．the difficulty in keeping a dog as a pet
B．characteristics （特征）of sick dogs
C．the similarities between dogs and human beings
D．causes and symptoms（症状）of cold in dogs

A．keep it inside during cold and wet weather

D．keep it sleeping on rugs at home
4.It can be learnt from the text that _________．

Are you fond of tomatoes？ Bunol，a town in Spain，held its yearly tomato festival on the last Wednesday of August．Thousands and thousands of people made their way from all corners of the world to fight in it，the world’s biggest food fight．Tons of fully-grown tomatoes were thrown in the streets．
No one knows exactly how this event started．Maybe it came from a local food fight between friends，or a joke that was played on a bad musician．
On Wednesday，at 11am，the fight began．A cannon(大炮) shot was fired to start the fight．At first，people fought one another，but slowly they began to fight in groups．After exactly one hour，the fight ended when the cannon shot was fired once more．At this point，no more tomatoes could be thrown．
Those who attend this event are encouraged to wear protective glasses．And they must press the tomatoes before throwing so that they won’t hurt others．Another rule is that no one is allowed to take anything — such as a glass bottle — into the fight．Although it is forbidden to tear(扯破) another person’s clothing，the crowd seems to tear the shirt of any clothed person，whether they are men or women．
Fire trucks are used to clean the streets after the fight with water provided from a Roman channel (海峡)．The government seems more concerned with cleaning up the town than the visitors，and people go to the Bunol River for a wash．
1.When the cannon shot is fired the second time，____．
A．people start to throw tomatoes
B．people start to fight in groups
C．the whole tomato fight is over
D．the fight has lasted for two hours
2.Which is NOT one of the rules of the tomato fight？
A．People can’t use glass bottles．
B．People must wear protective glasses．

3.After the tomato fight，the town government ____．

The morning had been a disaster．My tooth was aching．And I’d been in an argument with a friend．Her words still hurt: “The trouble with you is that you won’t put yourself in my place．Can’t you see things from my point of view？” I shook my head stubbornly—and felt the ache in my tooth．I’d thought I could hold out till my dentist came back from holiday，but the pain was really unbearable．I started calling the dentists in the phone book，but no one could see me immediately．Finally，at about lunchtime，I got lucky．
“If you come by right now，” the receptionist said，“the dentist will fit you in．”
I took my puree and keys and rushed to my car．But suddenly I began to doubt about the dentist．What kind of dentist would be so eager to treat someone at such short notice？ Why wasn't he as busy as the others？
In the dentist's office，I sat down and looked around．I saw nothing but the bare walls and I became even more worried．The assistant noticed my nervousness and placed her warm hand over my ice-cold one．
When I told her my fears，she laughed and said，"Don't worry．The dentist is very good．"
"How long do I have to wait for him？" I asked impatiently．
"Come on，he is coming．Just lie down and relax．And enjoy the artwork，" the assistant said．
"The artwork？" I was puzzled．
The chair went back．Suddenly I smiled．There was a beautiful picture，right where I could enjoy it: on the ceiling．How considerate the dentist was! At that moment，I began to understand what my friend meant by her words．
What a relief!

Five Ways to Improve Reading Comprehension（理解）
Help your child keep what he reads--an important skill，especially as he gets older and needs to gain important information from textbooks．
Have him read aloud．This forces him to go slower，which gives him more time to process (加工) what he reads．1.．
Provide the right kinds of books．Make sure your child gets lots of practice reading books that aren't too hard．2.Stopping any more often than that to figure out（弄明白）a word makes it tough（艰苦） for him to focus on the overall meaning of the story．
3.To gain meaning from text，your child needs to read quickly and smoothly--a skill known as fluency．Rereading familiar，simple books gives your child practice at decoding words quickly so he'll become more fluent．
Talk to the teacher．If your child is struggling hard with comprehension，he may need more help with his reading--for example，building his vocabulary or practicing phonics skills．
Talk about what he's reading．This “verbal processing” helps him remember and think through the themes of the book．4. For example:
● Before: “What interests you in this book？ What doesn't？”
● During: “5. Is it turning out the way you thought it would？ ”
● After: “Can you summarize the book？ What did you like about it？”
A．Reread to build fluency．
B．What's going on in the book？
C．Look up new words in the dictionary．
D．Do you know all the characters in the story？
E．Ask questions before，during，and after a reading session．
F．Plus，he's not only seeing the words，he's hearing them，too．
G．He should recognize at least 90 percent of the words without any help．
