People consume more than 2.25 billion cups of coffee across the world every day, and most say coffee tastes bitter.
Now, a new study suggests that coffee lovers can make their drink taste sweeter by simply changing the color of their cup. Scientists claim that blue and glass cups, which are popular in some coffee shops, reduce a coffee’s bitterness, without any need for sugar.
To prove their claim, scientists found 36 volunteers and used three different colored cups – blue, white and transparent (透明) glass – to do an experiment. In the experiment, white cup enhanced the flavor of coffee, which made coffee drunk from the white cup taste less sweet when compared to the other colored cups. The blue cup made the coffee taste the sweetest.
The scientists believe that the color brown may be associated with bitterness. So coffee in white cups, which appears the brownest, tastes the least sweet.
“The study suggests that café owners and baristas (咖啡吧服务员), as well a coffee cup manufacturers (制造商), should carefully consider the color of their cups,” said the scientists.
However, the idea that color can alter the taste of food and drink is not new.
A study published last year revealed that red, strawberry-flavored mousse served on a white plate was rated as 10 percent sweeter and 15 percent more flavorous than the same food presented on a black plate.
1.The underlined word “alter” in this passage probably means .
A.reduce B.change C.add D.imagine
2.Scientists used to do an experiment to prove their claim.
(1) different brands of coffee
(2) different colored coffee cups
(3) dozens of volunteers
(4) several manufacturers
A.(1)(2) B.(2)(3) C.(2)(4) D.(3)(4)
3.How can you make coffee sweeter if it’s too bitter according to the passage?
A.Use a blue cup. B.Use a yellow cup.
C.Reduce the sugar. D.Add less milk.
4.Why does coffee in white cups taste the least sweet?
A.Because white cups are less beautiful than other cups.
B.Because white cups are more popular with coffee lovers.
C.Because white cups are least associated with bitterness.
D.Because white cups make coffee seem the brownest.
5.According to the article, which of the following statements is TRUE?
A.People can make food taste sweeter by altering the size of the container.
B.Black plates usually enhance the sweetness of food and drink.
C.It seems that the color of the glass can alter the flavor of the coffee inside.
D.Strawberry-flavored mousse is 10 percent sweeter when served on brown plates.

Read the passage and fill in the blanks with proper words.
Now students’ English handwriting gets worse and worse. That makes their teachers feel w1.. Is your English handwriting beautiful? If not, here are four steps that really work!
◆Use paper with lines
Using paper with lines can keep you writing straight instead of up or down when you write English words or sentences. Those lines on the paper can help you to write words in the r2. size. Be sure to fill the lined space completely. And make sure those capital letters (大写字母) are written properly.
◆Slow down
If your writing is hard to read, try slowing down a little. For some kids, going slower makes the handwriting clear. If you write too fast, it’s hard for you to stop where you should, and even w3., you may make more mistakes.
◆Hold your pencil right
When you hold your pencil in a correct way, writing is much easier. Some kids press down really hard when they write. That makes the handwriting not nice. Try to relax yourself and don’t hold the pencil so hard. Let your writing appear nice and clean. If you do so, people will guess you are a student with a good h4..
◆Draw more pictures
Drawing can improve your handwriting. You need to use the skills to c5. your pencil better when you are drawing pictures. Even though you have no chance to draw at school, you can practice by y6. at home.
Handwriting is very important. Imagine you are a world-famous movie star or a well-known sports player, what do you do when your f7. run up to you? Give them your autographs (亲笔签名), of course!

Read the passage and fill in the blanks with proper words
What is life? It is like a game in which you are playing with f1. balls in the air. You name them work, family, health, friends and spirit and you keep all of them in the air. You will soon understand that work is a rubber ball. If you drop it, it will bounce back.
But the other four balls, family, health, friends and spirit, are made of g2.. If you drop one of these, they will break. They will never be the same. You must understand that and try to have balance in your life. How?
Don’t look on your worth by comparing yourself with others. It is because we are different and each of us is s3..
Don’t let other people set goals for you. Only you know what is best for yourself.
Don’t give up when you still have something to give. N4. is really over until the moment you stop trying.
Don’t be afraid of difficulties. It is by taking chances that we learn how to be brave.
Don’t shut love out of your life by saying it’s impossible. The quickest way to r5. love is to give it; the fastest way to lose love is to hold it too tightly; the best way to keep love is to give it wings.
Don’t run t6. life so fast that you forget not only where you’ve been, but also where you are going.
Don’t be afraid to learn. Knowledge is weightless. It’s a treasure (珍宝) you can always carry easily.
Don’t use time or words carelessly. You can’t get them back. Yesterday is h7., tomorrow is a mystery, and today is a gift: that’s why we call it “the p8.”. Life is not a competition, but a trip, step by step.

Answer the questions.
Millions of film viewers are excited about the Indian movie Dangal (《摔跤吧爸爸》), not just because it’s a well-produced move. It’s the true story of an Indian father, Mahavir Phogat, who trained his daughters to become the best wrestlers (摔跤选手) of the country when women weren’t even considered (认为) to be able of wrestling.
Phogat’s inspiration to train his daughters to become wrestlers came from Karnam Mall-eswari, the first Indian woman to win an Olympic medal. Phogat thought his girls can lead the country in women’s wrestling if he trained them properly. So he gave up his job and taught them all the tricks he knew from his own experience as a wrestler. The girls, Geeta and Babita, started their training by running in the farm every day.
Since there were no other female wrestlers in the village, the girls had to compete with the boys. However, the villagers laughed at them and told them to go back home for wrestling was a “male” sport.
However, Phogat didn’t listen to any of this. Eventually, he took his girls to the Sports Authority (部门) of India, where they trained under professional coaches.
And the outcome of all this blood and sweat? History was made.
In 2010, Geeta Phogat became the first Indian woman to win a gold medal in the 55kg freestyle women’s wrestling at the Commonwealth Games. Babita Phogat finished with a silver medal. In 2012, Geeta became the first Indian woman to win a bronze (铜) medal at World Wrestling Championship. Babita won her first gold medal at the 2014 Commonwealth Games.
The Phogat sisters have shown that women can stand out at any sport if they put their heart and hard work into it. They have also proved that wrestling is not just a man’s sport.
This is one of the main reasons why I think Dangal is going to be one of the most important movies of the year. It’s a message of encouragement to all the women who have been working hard to achieve their dreams.
1.The film Dangal is based on a true story in India, isn’t it?
2.What did Mahavir Phogat do to train his daughters?
3.Why did the villagers laugh at Phogat and his daughters?
4.How have the Phogat sisters proved that women can also be good at sports?
5.Why does the writer think the film Dangal is going to be one of the most important movies of the year?
6.In your opinion, who helped the Phogat sisters achieve their dreams? Give your own reason.
