1、 As the world is trying hard to fight COVID-19, how do we protect ourselves from the virus? The most important thing is to keep in good health. So do you have good hygiene (卫生) habits? 1. As far as we know, people’s health is closely connected with their hygiene habits in their everyday life. Under the influence of COVID-19, health experts are reminding people to wash their hands properly.
2. Although some may fail to notice this daily habit, hand washing actually has a long history. More than 2,500 hundred years ago, Chinese people had to wash their hands before taking part in ceremonies (仪式) and follow some strict rules.
In the 19th century, 3. 医生们发现洗手对他们的病人有帮助。The habit quickly became common among doctors and nurses, and later the public.
4. Also, more attention should be paid to a healthy dining habit. In the West, it is more culturally proper to eat your own meals. However, people in the East are exactly the opposite. For them, eating a meal alone is very impolite during social meetings. Instead of eating alone, they like eating common dishes. 5. 这是一种表达他们友好和温暖的常见方式。Some even share their utensils (餐具), which is risky. According to the WHO, saliva (唾液) is quite easy to spread illnesses through air.
Developing good hygiene habits can help people stay healthy. So why not start by washing your hands often and eating alone?

24、You may have heard that the Yangtze River is China’s longest river. It is almost 6,400 kilometers long. As the world’s third-longest river, its valley (流域) covers one-fifth of China’s land area. The Yangtze River Economic Zone(长江经济带) covers eleven provinces and cities, making up about forty percent of China’s total population and GDP.
On December 26, China passed the Yangtze River Protection Law, which came into force on March 1, 2021. It is the first law to protect a waterway in China.
The river is in great need of protection because something is wrong with it. For example, because of overfishing and water pollution, the river’s Chinese paddlefish has died out there. There’s also desertified land and soil pollution near the river.
According to the law, fishing will not be allowed in all of the Yangtze’s natural waterways, including its major tributaries and lakes. Those who are caught fishing will be fined 50,000 to 500,000 yuan.
Digging sand will be strictly limited in the river. Many companies are digging sand along the river. However, this has led to lower water levels on the river, which has caused the river’s water to decline. Companies and factories along the river will need to focus on green development. If their activities do harm to the waterways, they will be moved away, the law says.
【1】What does the first paragraph tell us about the Yangtze River?
A.How old it is.
B.What problems it has.
C.Why it’s important.
D.Where it joins the sea.
【2】What does Paragraph 3 explain?
A.How the river is being polluted.
B.Why the river needs protection.
C.When Chinese paddlefish died out.
D.How the river will be protected.
【3】According to the passage, which is true about protecting the river?
A.Anyone who causes pollution will be fined at least 50,000 yuan.
B.Digging sand will not be allowed in the river anymore.
C.Companies along the river will be moved to other places.
D.People can’t fish in the river’s major tributaries.
25、“Keep your eyes on your own paper” is one of the rules that Mrs Archer has taught us. It is a simple rule, but it’s not a rule everybody chooses to follow.
This morning, I had an experience with a “rule breaker” during an English exam. I felt somebody was watching me a little too closely. I turned my head quickly and saw James, who sat right behind me. My eyes caught his and he said in a low voice, “I hope you studied for this test!” I gave him a smile, not sure whether he was joking or not, and returned to my test. This time I leaned(倾身)a little more closely towards my paper. “I can’t see!” James said.
“What am I going to do?” I thought to myself. Cheating(欺骗)went against my beliefs. I curled my arm around my answers.
“He’s your friend, and what are friends for?”
“You know it’s wrong.”
I tapped(轻敲/轻拍)the top of my desk, hoping for an easy way out of this matter. No easy answer came. I just knew I had to do what I felt was right, even if it made James mad. So I guarded my paper so that he couldn't see my answers.
When the exam ended, I stood there for a moment, searching for the right words to say to James. “Sorry, James, but you know me well enough to understand how I feel about cheating,” I said slowly and softly. “But maybe I could help you study before the next test.” “OK, Brian,” he smiled. “It might not be easy, but I’ll give it a try.”
I felt happy that my friendship with James hadn’t been destroyed(破坏). Mrs Archer would be proud.
【1】Who was the “rule breaker”?
A.Mrs Archer.
B.James.
C.Brian.
D.A boy on the left.
【2】Which three actions had the same purpose?
①I gave him a smile.
②I leaned a little more closely towards my paper.
③I curled my arm around my answers.
④I tapped the top of my desk.
⑤I guarded my paper so that he couldn’t see my answers.
A.①②③
B.②③④
C.②③⑤
D.③④⑤
【3】Who said the two underlined sentences and in what way?
A.Brian, silently in his mind.
B.James, in a low voice.
C.Mrs Archer, slowly and softly.
D.Brian and James, to each other.
