If only I had followed Mom’s advice

The major theme of my summer this year has been “going back home”. I went back to China as soon as school was over, at the end of June. I returned to Canada on August 17.

Going back to China this summer was not easy, because of the A (H1N1) flu. Everybody seemed to be terrified. The easiest thing to do was to wear masks on the plane, as my mom suggested. However, it was difficult to wear a mask for 10 hours. The idea was more horrifying than catching the flu! In the end I decided I’d take the masks onto the plane, but not wear them.

Everything seemed okay during the flight. I saw only five people were wearing masks all the time. “Comfort is always the first thing,” I said to myself. When we arrived in Beijing some people came on the plane and took our temperature. Fortunately, nobody had a fever. Therefore, I was able to get home on time.

Unluckily, everything went wrong after I got home. I became sick, with a sore throat and a fever. The horrible image of the flu suddenly hovered in front of me, laughing at me, calling me an ill-behaved child because I had not followed my mom’s words. Luckily, I just had a common cold; probably it was due to the stale air inside the plane cabin. While I was sick in bed, I sighed sadly. If I had listened to my mom in the first place, I probably would have never caught the cold.

It’s always wise to listen to your mom’s suggestions.

【1】The author returned to ____ on August 17.

A．China

B．Canada

C．America

D．England

【2】What did the author’s mom suggest to him?

A．She suggested him wearing masks on the plane.

B．She suggested him taking the masks onto the plane.

C．She suggested him going back home.

D．She suggested him taking off the masks on the plane.

【3】How many people were wearing masks all the time during the fight?

A．Only one.

B．Only five.

C．Only six.

D．All of the passengers.

【4】Did the author catch the flu?

A．Yes, he caught the A(H1N1) flu.

B．No, he didn’t. He had a common cold.

C．No. He was healthy.

D．We don’t know.

【5】Does the author regret not following his mom’s advice？

A．Yes, he does.

B．No, he doesn’t.

C．No. He followed his mom’s advice.

D．We don’t know.

22、

Lao Men Dong (also known as East Zhonghua Gate Historical Culture Block) is a well-known place of interest in Qinhuai District, Nanjing. It is not big, but has attracted visitors of the whole city and the whole country as well.

To the south of Confucius Temple, the block is not far from Qinhuai River. Over twenty years ago, it was only a small block full of old houses and dirty, narrow roads. There were not many shops or public services. Most of the people living there were either too old or too poor to move. Things have changed since 2010s. Because of the regulatory plan, the residence (原居民) have moved to other newly-built communities. The government has also built many clean and neat roads. A couple of old-fashioned houses have also been renewed. Both local and foreign businesses have settled down here, such as Librairie Avant-grade (先锋书店) and Starbucks. You can also try some other local snacks and pay a visit to the art museums.

Lao Men Dong is developing so fast that it has become an outstanding landmark of Nanjing’s culture.

【1】Lao Men Dong lies ______ of Confucius Temple.

A. north B. west C. south D. east

【2】Over twenty years ago, most people in this area .

A. usually paid a visit to the art museums here

B. often enjoyed coffee in Starbucks with friends

23、Many musicians meet and form (组成) a band because they like to write and play their own music. They may start as a group of high school students and practice their music in someone’s house. Sometimes they may play to passers-by in the street or subway so that they can get some money for themselves or pay for their instruments (乐器).

However, there was one band that started in a different way. It was called the Monkees and was formed in 1965. It began as a TV show. The TV show had planned to find four rock musicians who could act as well as sing. But they could only find one who was good enough. They had to use actors for the other three members of the band.

Since some of these actors could not sing well enough, they had to ask for help from other musicians. So at first, the band just pretended (假装) to sing. Anyway, their performances were excellent and they got lots of fans. Each week on TV, the Monkees would pretend to play and sing songs written by other musicians. After a year or so, they became more serious about their work. They started to play and sing their own songs like a real band. Then they produced (制作) their own records and started touring and playing their own music. In the USA they became even more influential and popular than the Beatles and sold even more records.

However, the band broke up around 1970, but happily they reunited (重聚) in the 1980s. They produced a new record in 1996 to celebrate their time as a band. It was very successful. Today the Monkees are still making music for their millions of fans.

24、   Popeye the Sailor first became a popular cartoon in the 1930s. The sailor in that cartoon ate lots of spinach (菠菜) to make him strong. People watched him, and they began to buy and eat a lot more spinach. Popeye helped sell 33 percent more spinach than before! Spinach became a necessary part of many people's diets. Even some children who hated the taste began to eat the vegetable.

Many people thought that the iron in spinach made Popeye strong, but this is not true. Spinach does not have any more iron (铁) than any other green vegetable.

People only thought spinach had a lot of iron because the people who studied the food made a mistake. In the 1890s, a group of people studied what was inside vegetables. This group said that spinach had ten times more iron than it did. The group wrote the number wrong, and everyone accepted it.

Today, we know that the little iron there is in spinach cannot make a difference in how strong a person is. However, spinach does have something else which the body needs-folic acid (叶酸).

It is interesting to point out that folic acid can help make a person strong. Maybe it was really the folic acid that made Popeye strong all along.

【1】A good title for this reading passage is________.

A.Popeye the Sailor B.The Truth About Spinach

C.A Mistake with Numbers D.Folic Acid Makes You Strong

【2】Why did many people eat spinach after they saw Popeye the Sailor?

A.They thought spinach made them strong. B.They thought Popeye was funny.

C.Spinach had a lot of iron. D.People liked folic acid.

【3】A research group told people that spinach________.

A.made Popeye strong B.was a green vegetable

C.had less iron than other green vegetables D.had more iron than other green vegetables

【4】The reading passage says that perhaps Popeye got his strength from ________.

A.iron B.folic acid C.spinach D.exercise
