Checking one’s weight. The habit of weighing people at Start of Summer is still popular in some places of China today. It’s said that this practice will bring health and good luck to the people weighed.
Eating eggs. In the old days, Chinese people believed a round egg was a symbol of a happy life and eating eggs on the day of Start of Summer was a good wish for good health. People put tea into the boiling water together with eggs to make “tea eggs”. Today it has become a famous snack in many places of China.
Taking care of the heart. According to the Traditional Chinese Medicine, Start of Summer is a key time to protect the heart. When it grows hot, heat can influence health. So people prefer food such as fruit and vegetables.

25、The Vieira family moved to the United States in 1981. At that time, they decided to stop speaking Spanish at home and only communicate in English. This was because they were now living in an English-speaking country.
Now the Vieira children are adults, and they sometimes travel to Spain to visit their family and friends. But they cannot communicate with them. Unfortunately this is common. When people move to new countries, they often leave their own customs and mother language behind. This is a mistake because there are many benefits to knowing more than one language.
One advantage of speaking more than one language is that you can communicate directly with more people around the world. You do not have to depend on others to talk to you, so you’re more independent. People who know only one language must use others to help them communicate.
Furthermore, speaking a second language also allows people to experience other cultures and customs more effectively. Local expressions, vocabulary, and even jokes can have a powerful effect on a person’s understanding of another culture. So, knowing more than one language increases your knowledge of other cultures.
Finally, having more multi-language speakers improves relationships between countries. If people from different countries can communicate well, the world can become closer. Countries will then have more respect for each other and better understand each other’s problems.
The benefits of knowing more than one language are clear. In fact, there are no disadvantages. It is very sad that many people don’t try to learn another language. It is even worse when people let themselves forget their mother language and become silent.
【1】What is the passage mainly about?
A.The benefits of learning other languages.
B.The reasons why people come to America.
C.The importance of learning English.
D.How to learn another language.
【2】The passage begins with the experience of the Vieira family in order to _______.
A.discuss the need for teaching a new language
B.introduce the passage’s main characters to the readers
C.describe the advantages of moving to another country
D.show the problems of speaking only one language
【3】According to the passage, if you can speak more than one language, you can _______.
A.find a better job
B.make more friends
C.better understand history
D.communicate more independently
【4】Based on the last paragraph, which of the following is the worst?
A.Not knowing another language.
B.Forgetting one’s mother language.
C.Refusing to learn another language.
D.Failing to communicate with others.

27、 Few of us have heard of Nils Bohlin, but whenever we take a car journey, his invention makes us safer. Found in almost every modem car, the three-point seat belt reduces our chances of death or injury (伤害) by at least 50%. While feeling thankful to this engineer from Volvo, you may also wonder how he came up with such a great idea.
Having worked as a plane designer before, Nils knew clearly that the pilots were willing to put on anything to keep them safe in an accident, but to his surprise, most people in the cars just didn't want to be uncomfortable for even a minute. To improve the safety for people in the cars, he decided to find a perfect system which should be simple, effective and convenient. In the end, he invented the three-point seat belt, which has been considered as one of the greatest inventions in history.
Seat belts prevent people in the cars from serious injury in five ways.
Keep people inside. People who are thrown out from a car are four times more likely to be killed than those who stay inside.
Protect the strongest parts of the body. Seat belts are designed to fix your body at its strongest parts. For an older child and adult, these parts are the hips (臀部) and shoulders.
Spread out the force in an accident. Seat belts spread the force of the accident over a wide area of the body. By putting less stress on one area, they can help you avoid serious injury. Seat belts also help keep your upper body away from the hard parts of the car if you stop suddenly or are hit by another car.
Help the body to slow down. A quick speed causes injury. With the help of the seat belts, your body can have more time to slow down in an accident.
Protect your brain and spinal cord (脊柱). Seat belts are designed to protect these two key areas of the human body. Head and spinal cord injuries may be hard to see immediately, but they can cause death. Therefore, it's of great importance to protect these parts.
It takes only few seconds to buckle up (系好安全带) once you get in the car, but this simple action could save your life. Why wouldn't you?
【1】Three-point seat belts reduce chances of death or injury by at least __________.
A.10% B.30% C.40% D.50%
【2】From the passage we can learn _________.
A.hips and shoulders aren't the older children and adults' strongest parts.
B.seat belts can keep your knees and feet away from the hard parts of the car.
C.the body has more time to slow down in an accident with the help of seat belts.
D.head and spinal cord injuries might be easy to see immediately and cause death.
【3】This passage is mainly about _____________.
A.how seat belts are made B.how seat belts are used
C.how seat belts save lives D.how seat belts develop better
28、根据上下文和所给提示填入所缺内容。
Chinese music is 【1】 (difference) from music from other parts of the world.
