Tea oxidizes(氧化) quickly, so it is suggested that you drink it hot.•Do not drink too much strong tea.

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 tea with medicine. It may change the medical result.

When the weather turns warm, sea turtles leave the ocean to lay their eggs on the beach. This is the only time they will ever leave the water. Most other turtles spend part of the time in water and part of the time on land.B. The way their feet are made helps sea turtles swim very quickly. Their feet look like long paddles or a sea l’s flippers. When they swim, they flap their feet like a bird flaps its wings. This unusual way of swimming benefits sea turtles. It allows them to escape from their enemies.C. Sea turtles stay in the water because they are safer there. Sea turtles cannot pull their heads and feet into their shells like other turtles can. Sea turtles cannot hide inside their shells from other animals that want to eat them. They need to move quickly to stay safe.D. Sea turtles are the giants of the turtles. The largest kind of sea turtle can grow eight feet and weigh 1,500 pounds. Even the smallest kind, Kemp’s ridley, can grow up to 28 inches long and weigh almost 100 pounds. Many other turtles are small enough to fit in your hand.E. It is easy to understand why sea turtles stay in the water. Their ability to swim is superior to their ability to walk. Their heavy bodies and unusual feet make it hard for them to travel on land. They are better adapted for life in the water. They are well suited for life in the sea because of the way their bodies are made.DCAEBToday Internet is becoming more and more popular. Most of the students surf the Internet after school.

Let me give you some advice.First, you shouldn’t tell the information about yourself or your family to any strangers unless your parents allow you to do so.Second, never send your pictures to anyone that you meet online.Third, you mustn’t meet with anyone that you know from the Internet. Maybe he is a bad person.Fourth, never receive presents or money from any strangers that you meet online without yourparents’ permission.The last one, you mustn’t open e-mails from strangers or strange websites. Maybe they are bad for your computers.(一)根据短文内容简要回答问题。

Dried leaves from a nearby 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 2737 BC.Drinking tea has many advantages. It makes people feel less tired, clears heat inside the human body and helps people lose weight.

My comprehension of English was good after a long period of hard work.I can’t study English all the time, but now I am good at it.

In fact, more than 200 universal languages have been invented since the 1600s. Some people today use a recently invented language known as Esperanto, which means “one who hopes.”Esperanto was invented in 1887 by a doctor in Poland. Since then many people have learnedto speak and write the language. Esperanto is easy to learn because it has only a few simple rules. All nouns end in o, and each letter has just one soun d. Also, many of Esperanto’s words are borrowed from other languages. For example, the Esperanto word for “telephone” is telefono. Some people say that Esperanto sounds similar to Spanish.Some people would like to see Esperanto become more widely used. They believe that if all the people of the world could speak the same language, countries would get along better. Trade would be easier. Cultures could be shared, and close friendships would grow.Other people believe that Esperanto will never work. They think that people should use only languages that have developed over time rather than ones that have been created all at once. But Esperanto is becoming more popular. Today it is sometimes used at meetings attended by people from around the world. It is spoken on at least 12 radio stations in several different countries. Thousands of books and magazines have been printed in Esperanto. Some children in Hawaii even study Esperanto in school.Will Esperanto be spoken by all the world’s people in the future? It i s difficult to predict, and only time will tell. In the meantime, though, many hopeful people continue to spread the word. ( )1.

Chinese languagePassage 3(2016河北)In the eyes of many foreigners, Chinese are the best hosts(主人)and the worst guests in the world. They're not really bad guests, but because the guest­host relationship in China is much different than in some western countries, it appears they are not nice guests. And western hosts sometimes look rude(粗鲁的)in the eyes of Chinese guests.In China, guests are almost like gods. Whenever I enter a Chinese person's home, there is always fruit on the table for me, and someone is quick to bring me a cup of tea or water. In the west, generally the guest is not a god. Acting according to the host's way of doing things is usual behavior for a guest.My wife's mother, a very kind elderly Chinese lady, doesn't smoke. When I see some of her guests smoking in her house, as a non­smoker, I feel unhappy. Usually I want to stop them directly, but I must realize that in China, to be a good host, she must not do that. In most North American homes, if you area guest, and the hosts are not smokers, you should not smoke in their house. At the very least, you could ask, “Is it OK if I smoke？” But, don't be surprised if they say, “No, you can't smoke.” In our culture, if you smoke in their home, you are a bad guest, but if they do not allow you to smoke in their house, they are not a rude host.Guests in China also have special habits. Some western people may not adapt_to these habits very soon. Thankfully my wife is Chinese, so whenever we visit a Chinese family she tells me to buy them a gift. However, giving a gift to a host is not always necessary in my country. So, if you invite international guests to your house, don't be too surprised if they don't bring you a gift.In China, you probably won't need to change the guest­host relationship very much because you will probably only be the host, and Chinese are naturally very good hosts. If western hosts invite you to their house, try not to be too surprised if their style of treating you is not what you have expected.()1. Many foreigners think that Chinese hosts are the________ in the world.A. bestB. worstC. most naturalD. most different( )2. When a western guest visits a Chinese family, he often________．A. buys some fruitB. feels like a godC. wants some giftsD. takes a cup of tea( )3. If the writer's guests want to smoke in his house, what will he probably say?A. It's OK if you smoke here.B. Let's smoke together.C. Sorry, you can't smoke here.D. Smoking is a bad habit.( )4. What is the meaning of the underlined phrase “adapt to” in the passage?A. think back toB. get used toC. look forward toD. keep close to( )5. What is the main idea of this passage?A. Foreigners should learn from Chinese.B. Hosts must do things in the guests' way.C. Western hosts are always nice to guests.D. People should understand cultural differences.。

Tea has a very close relationship with Chinese culture.It is said that Chinese tea was discovered by King Shen Nong. People say that he lived 5,000 years 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 nearby 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 2737 BC.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.•Drink it hot. Tea oxidizes(氧化) quickly, so it is suggested that you drink it hot.•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 tea with medicine. It may change the medical res ult. You can drink tea two hours after you take the medicine.•Green tea is the best choice for office workers. Why?
