We all want others to respect us. None of us wants to be disrespected or seen as a bad person. An equally basic truth is that the only way we can get respect is to earn it. At a certain point in the process of growing up, we r1. that life isn't going to give us something for nothing. What is meaningful is what we earn (赢得) t2. trying and working hard.
Take a minute to think about this: Imagine two people. One person has drifted(漂泊) unhappily through his life, putting little e3. into his work and maybe even at times d4.on others. One morning, the telephone rings and someone says to this person.
"C5.!You have just won a million dollars in the state lottery (彩票)""The other person works hard and eventually earns a million dollars. That person is w6. respected by others and has a strong sense of achievement. Which person would you want to be-the one who won a million dollars o7. the one who earned a million dollars?
Probably you would choose to be the person who worked hard, overcame (克服) difficulties and achieved success. If you relate to that person, your aim may be: "I want to respect m8.and have others respect me. To get this respect, I am going to work hard. At this stage in my life, that means doing well in school—it's clearly a key to s9.."
And if you have made mistakes in the past (many of us have), you should tell yourself. "I can change myself. I am going to learn to work hard so that I can get somewhere and be s10.." You need to believe in the saying, "No pains, no gains." The only way to gain respect is by working hard.

As "a state of ceremonies", Chinese people always have some special habits to show their respect to others or just keep their own nation culture, which can still be seen nowadays. Some of them are good things indeed while some of them may make foreigners feel confused (困惑). Here are some tips for you with respect to four Chinese habits:
Burping (打嗝) after meal. In China, burping is seen as a sign of satisfaction with the meal and is considered a compliment to the chef, so don't be surprised if it happens at the dinner table. However, nowadays the habits may be changed in young people.
Finger tapping (轻敲) while drinking tea. Light finger tapping is a customary way to thank the tea master or tea server for tea. After one's cup is filled, the bent index (食指) and middle fingers are knocked on the table to express gratitude to the person who served the tea. This custom is common in southern Chinese cultures, like the Cantonese.
Don't be offended (生气、被冒犯) if you offer a gift and it is refused. It is customary in China to refuse the first offer. Sometimes, the etiquette (礼仪) is to refuse the gift three times, though it may not always take this many tries. In general, the expectation is that a gift is politely refused at first, even if it is desired, and will eventually be accepted after a few offers.
No tips (小费). Although tipping might be common in restaurants in some foreign countries, it is generally unnecessary in China and can even be considered impolite. Tips are typically only given when doing tour-related activities or at hotels.

2018 is the Year of the Dog. Although dogs are seen as friends and part of the family today, China and Western countries have different cultural beliefs about dogs.
In Chinese, some words about dogs have derogatory meaning, such as “Lead a dog’s life.” In English, however, the situation is different. People use “every dog has his day” to describe a period of good luck, “work like a dog” to describe a hard worker and “a gay dog” to describe a happy person.
The dog-human relationship goes right back to the beginnings of Western civilization. Perhaps the most moving example is from the 8th century BC, in Greek poet Homer’s The Odyssey. When Greek hero Odysseus finally returns home after 20 years away at war, no one but his dog Argos recognizes him. The Argos is an old, sick dog, and is about to die; but he is overjoyed to see his owner again after so many years.
In fact, people were close to dogs in away they weren’t close to cows, pigs or even horses. Farmers worked closely with dogs. But even after science came to agriculture and dogs lost their traditional roles, the relationship between men and dogs remained.
Nowadays in the West, millions of people keep dogs as pets. They are at the heart of family life. People feed them, take them on holidays and look after them. In return, dogs are loyal in a way that friends sometimes aren’t. This loyalty is the origin of the English saying, “A dog is man’s best friend.”
1.Which may be a saying about dogs in China?
A. A gay dog. B. Lead a dog’s life. C. Work like a dog. D. Every dog has its day.
2.The story of Odysseus and his dog is moving because .
A. the dog will die in two years B. he is overjoyed to see his dog again
C. only the dog recognizes him after the war D. he returns home after twenty years away at war
3.What happened to dogs after science came to agriculture?
A. Farmers worked closely with dogs. B. They still kept their traditional roles.
C. People preferred pigs and horses to dogs. D. Men and dogs remained in good relationship.
4.What can we know from the passage?
A. All people keep dogs as pets in western countries. B. In fact, dogs may be more loyal than some friends.
C. Argos was a great Greek hero in the 8th century BC. D. China and England have the same beliefs about dogs.

Beggars are often seen sitting by the side of a street with heads bowed as people pass them by. Some ask people passing by for a small amount of money and some just sit and wait to be given money.
To solve the problem , another giving plan has been suggested. Ten blue money boxes will be placed in busy places such as the market and the railway station. It aims to encourage people not to give money directly to beggars but instead to give generously to local homeless people.
Supporters of this plan think it will be an effective way to solve the beggars’ alcohol and drug problems（酗酒和吸毒）. But the police oppose the plan arguing that beggars who do not receive cash may turn to criminality（犯罪） to feed their addictions. The homeless charity “Crisis” said the success of any plan will depend on its style. They think that imaginative and positive（积极的） plans can help create local understanding and sympathy（同情心） instead of hardness. Most of the beggars dislike the plan because they think they will not get enough money from the boxes for their showers, food and clothes.
Begging is a big social problem both in developing and developed countries. Governments must play a big role in solving this problem. Training beggars to work and helping them to find appropriate jobs is one option. This is especially true for developing countries where many low-skill jobs exist.
The general community should also be educated to see beggars not as dirty and dangerous, but as people who need understanding and help.

| An1.______ to the begging problem | ●Some beggars ask passers-by for money ●Some beggars just sit and wait to be given money |

| Different opinions on the suggested plan | ●Supporters of this plan think it very effective to solve the problem related to beggars. ●The police oppose the plan arguing the beggars may turn to criminality because of lack of cash. ●The homeless charity said that it remains to be seen whether this plan would be 3._____. ●Most of the beggars dislike the plan because the money that they will get from the box will not be 4.______. |
| 2.How to deal with the problem | ●Governments must be actively involved in solving this problem be training beggars to work and helping them to find proper jobs. ●Beggars shouldn’t be 5.______ as dirty and dangerous people but as people needing help and understanding. |

A recent survey of 2000 parents in Britain showed that they are often afraid of science questions asked by their curious children only because they have no idea what the answer is. Here is a list of some simple questions that you can ask your parents to see if they know the answers.
Q: Why is the sky blue?
A: You probably know white sunlight is made up of seven colors. While it moves in a straight line when going through space, it starts to divide as it hits “raised area” in the atmosphere. The ones with longest wavelengths pass through easily. The blue , however , can be taken in by the gas molecules (分子) because it has a shorter wavelength , which in turn scatters (使分散) it in different directions. That’s why when you look up at the sky, it appears to be blue.
Q: Why does the moon sometimes appear during the daytime?
A: The simple answer to that is because just like any other object it is being lit (照亮) by the sun. As long as it is around 45 degrees or even 90 degrees off the sun, it will receive light and be able to be seen. The only time it is not able to be seen during its 28-day orbit (轨道) around the earth is when it is right between the earth and the sun. That’s because its back , which is not lit by the sun, is facing us.
Q: Where do birds/ honeybees go in winter?
A: While the bird part is quite easy, since a lot of them get together and travel, the honeybee part is likely to puzzle your parents. It turns out that these busy insects stop being that active when the temperature drops below 50°F. Instead ,they get together in the lower central area of the hive（蜂巢）and form a ball around their queen. This helps keep both warm enough to survive the cold winter months.
1.The sky looks blue mainly because the color blue in the sunlight_______.
A. has the longest wavelength among all the colors
B. cannot be taken in by the gas molecules
C. doesn’t hit “raised area” in the atmosphere
D. cannot pass through space successfully
2.How long can’t the moon be seen during the daytime in a month?
A. 2. B. 28. C.30. D. 31.
3.What do honeybees choose to do when the temperature drops below 50°F?
A. They choose to be active in the wild.
B. They choose to keep themselves warm.
C. They choose to travel to a warm place.
D.They choose to get together in the upper central area of the hive.
4.What is NOT explained in the passage?
A. Why is the sky blue?
B. Why is the moon able to be seen during the daytime?
C. Why do birds travel in winter?
D. Where do honeybees go in winter?
