About me
Hi, everyone! I’m Tony. I grew up in New York, but my family moved back to China a few weeks ago.
What I’m looking for
My Chinese isn’t great. I can speak a little, but I really need to practice with someone. Also, I don’t really know anyone my age in Hangzhou. I hope to find someone to help me with my Chinese and to hang out with. In return, maybe I can help you with your English and we can practice together!

I like going to the movies, playing online games and just hanging out. I like the food here a lot, but I don’t really know any good places to eat. Maybe you could introduce me to some cool places to get snacks and drinks. I’d like to start exploring some of the night markets here, too. I’m also starting to get really into photography, so I hope you won’t mind me stopping to take some pictures. I’m not interested in sports or anything about pop music, so if you really love those things, then we probably won’t have much to talk about.
Anything else Don’t be shy. Click here to leave me a message.

The Sahara Desert in Northern Africa is the largest hot desert in the world. It is about 1,800 km from the north to the south and about 4,800 km from the east to the west. Temperatures can reach 58°C in the daytime and can fall to -6°C at night. More than 8,000 years ago, the Sahara was a rich land where farmers grew food and plants grew well. As the rainfall in the area gradually went down every year, it became a huge desert. Most areas of this desert have less than 13 cm of rain every year.
Gary Smith and a few of his brave friends decided to hike across the Sahara. Supporters in cars, who carried food and water for the group, stayed with them together.
One day, Smith walked alone and then he couldn’t find the rest of the group. Even worse, he could not find out which direction to go. Then a sandstorm covered the area. When the storm was over, Smith was even more worried. In the heat that he couldn’t stand, he quickly finished his water. He had to spend that night out in the open, and he almost felt he couldn’t survive (生存).
The next day, he walked on. After the second night, he started to worry about dying. He realized that his friends might not find him in time. It was late on the third day that Smith lost his sense and fell over.
When Smith awoke, he was in the car with his friends. He had been found by a group of Bedouin who were traveling in a truck. In such a large desert with the weather conditions, this made it possible for him to survive. Then Bedouin returned to his group of friends. Smith was so lucky.
19. How did the Sahara turn into a desert according to the text
A. People cut down more and more plants. B. There was less and less rain.
C. The temperature was higher and higher. D. There were more and more visitors.
20. Which of the following is the right order according to the passage
a. Gary Smith got lost in the desert.
b. Gary Smith fell over on the desert.
c. There was a sandstorm in the area.
d. Gary Smith was saved by some travelers.
A. a-d-b-c B. a-d-c-b C. a-c-b-d D. c-b-a-d
21. What does the underlined word “this” in Paragraph 5 refer to
A. Being in this kind of weather. B. Traveling in a truck.
C. Returning to a group of friends. D. Being found by Bedouin.
22. What’s the writer’s purpose of writing the text
A. To encourage us to go through the Sahara.
B. To show that the Sahara is in great danger.
C. To give some basic information about the Sahara.
D. To show surviving in the Sahara can be challenging.

Old wives’ tales are pieces of advice that are supposed to solve common problems such as the medical ones or some problems at home. They are usually passed down through talking, and there are only a few having been written down. Some of them sound ridiculous and have no scientific meaning at all, just like jokes, while others are more reasonable, which are realized to be true.
Often, old wives’ tales take the form of warnings and are a way to prevent poor behavior in children. For example, “Eating candy before bedtime brings you bad dreams” is a common old wives’ tale that was probably thought up to stop children from eating too many unhealthy snacks. Similarly, “If you’ve been lying, your nose will be longer” is a trick trying to get naughty children to tell the truth.
Other old wives’ tales want to give advice about how to keep away from illnesses. “If you go outside with wet hair, you’ll catch a cold” is an old wives’ tale that’s still commonly heard today. However, colds are not caused by cold weather or wet hair. Instead, they are caused by viruses (病毒).
“Feed a cold, starve a fever” means that you should eat plenty of food when you have a cold, but not eat when you have a fever. This piece probably comes from the fact that people with a fever usually lose their appetite (胃口) anyway. Medical science has found that the body stops eating much when you have a fever because little food makes your immune system (免疫系统) fight bacterial infections (细菌感染), while eating a little more makes your immune system fight against viruses, like colds.
There are hundreds of old wives’ tales. Although there may be truth in a few of them, if you hear one, it’s best not to take it too seriously.
23. What does the underlined word “ridiculous” in Paragraph 1 probably mean
A. Painful. B. Silly. C. Helpful. D. Believable.
24. Which of the following may be a reason for telling old wives’ tales
A. To stop the kid from a bad habit. B. To get the baby to fall asleep quickly.
C. To find the medicine for an illness. D. To give friends advice on relationships.
25. What can we know about the old wives’ tales
A. We should take most of them seriously. B. Some are explanations of illnesses.
C. Most of them can be found in the books. D. Some are thought up to sell medicines.
26. What’s the text mainly about
A. The development of old wives’ tales. B. Different forms of old wives’ tales.
C. The ways of passing down old wives’ tales. D. The advice on telling old wives’ tales.
D
Have you ever noticed how, on a rainy night, all other sounds seem to disappear The sound of the rain drowns (淹没) them out. And even though the sound of the rain goes on all night, it doesn’t keep you awake. Rain is a kind of white noise — a steady and unchanging sound.
White noise is made up of sounds from all the frequencies (频率) a human ear can hear, with the sound at each frequency having the same power. It’s called “white” because it is like that of white light, which is a mixture of all the light we can see.
You might think that a mixture of all possible sound frequencies would be terrible, but it’s not — quite the opposite. The reason for this is that white noise covers other sounds. Think of it like the rain: the sound of one drop falling, like from a leaky tap (漏水的龙头), would be very different and hateful. Two drops would be the same. You could even tell three drops apart. But if there were 5 or 10 or 1,000, you couldn’t pick out each drop. They’d all mix into a kind of quiet sound and probably lead you to sleep.
According to a scientific study, white noise can help treat different problems. It can help worried people sleep and help those who have headaches sleep through their pain. It can be very useful for people with attention problems, who have trouble telling background noise and can’t focus on something well. White noise can help them pay attention to something. It can even cover the sound of conversations by doctors and others who want to keep privacy. Who would have thought that mixing lots of sounds together would actually turn out to develop peace and quiet
27. What is “white noise” according to the text
A. A kind of sound that is very loud. B. The mixture of all kinds of sounds.
C. A kind of sound that is changeable. D. The mixture of different kinds of rain.
28. How does the writer explain the reason why the white noise is not terrible
A. By giving an example. B. By telling a story.
C. By asking a question. D. By describing a picture.
29. What is the main idea of Paragraph 4
A. Causes of white noise. B. Uses of white noise.
C. Stories about white noise. D. Problems of white noise.
30. What do you think of the scientific study of white noise in Paragraph 4 Why (请用约20词回答)
