Unit 1 Art一、阅读理解。
It is certainly newsworthy that Julia is the first new Muppet (提线木偶)in a decade in Sesame Street, a TV program for children，but that is not the only thing that makes her special.The cheery , greeneyed 4yearold, who has autism(自闭症)，is also here to expose young kids to those with autism and teach them about acceptance.The creators decided to bring the Muppet on air so that she would be able to reach millions more kids and families.However，as autism looks different in everyone，it can be hard to introduce such a character properly.Sesame Workshop consulted over 250 educators，psychologists，and autism organizations.In Julia's first episode，viewers observe common problems with kids who suffer autism and similar disorders.For example，when the other Muppets want to play hideandseek，Julia starts jumping up and down with excitement.Instead of laughing at her or correcting her，the group of Muppets start jumping with her and it becomes a new game.And when Julia first meets Big Bird，another Muppet，she ignores him.At first，Big Bird is hurt，but he learns that it doesn't mean she dislikes him—she just communicates with strangers in a different way.Julia was an instant hit.Families quickly connect with the little redhaired girl.Sherrie Westin，an executive vice president at Sesame Workshop，says her favorite feedback came from a mother，who used Julia to explain to her autistic daughter what the condition meant, inspiring the daughter to say，“So I'm amazing too，right？”Autism affects 1 in 68 children in the United States and scores more worldwide.Hopefully，by watching Julia，kids will see that everyone should be treated equally and appreciated.1．What does the underlined word “them” in Paragraph 1 refer to?A．Sesame Street's Muppets.B．Young kids.C．Children with autism.D．The creators of Julia.2．Why did Sesame Workshop consult many experts?A．To make the new Muppet entertaining.B．To get their advice on the cure for autism.C．To make autism better known through Julia.D．To make more money through the TV program.3．How do the other Muppets react to Julia's behavior in the game?A．They follow her.

Unit 1 ArtⅠ.阅读理解A[2018·四川广安一诊]It is true that tea comes from a plant known as Camellia sinensis. The different types of tea depend upon the region in which it is grown, harvesting time and the procedure of processing. Basically, there are four major classes of tea: white, oolong, green and black tea.One of the least processed and, the purest forms of tea are the white tea. This tea type has very low content of caffeine and appears a light color, as the name indicates and a mild flavor. Due to the presence of high amount of healthy chemicals, it is helpful in fighting skinrelated health problems and in getting a fair color of skin.Another tea type is the oolong tea, also called as wulong tea at some places which has very rich flavor and has a sweet fragrance. It is fermented (发酵) but to a limited level because of which, the caffeine content in it is about 15% of what is in a cup of coffee. Drinking this tea proves to be useful in treating obesity, which is reducing the weight.As opposing to oolong tea, the black tea is fully fermented, as a result of which it has caffeine of approximately 20% of what is present in a cup of coffee. If you consume black tea every day, you will be able to regulate the cholesterol (胆固醇) levels in the body and also keeping your circulatory system healthy. It also adjusts cardiovascular (心血管的) function.The last tea type is the green tea that is mostly preferred by many people owing to its multiple health benefits. Similar to the white tea, this tea also has less caffeine that is only 5%10% of caffeine in one cup of coffee. This type of tea is also good to maintain the cholesterol and blood sugar levels within the acceptable range. In addition, they help in preventing tooth rot and other teethrelated ill ness. So, you can choose that variety that you find good with regardto its taste and health benefits.篇章导读：本文是一篇说明文。
