Do you like to drink hot water Chinese people are different from people in most other countries, and they especially like to drink boiled water. Do you know why
In the old days, people drank water from the river. The bacteria in it could make them unhealthy. Ancient people around the world used different ways to kill the bacteria in the water. For the Chinese, they thought drinking boiled water was the easiest way to protect themselves from the bacteria.
What’s more, Chinese people in the past thought that “yin” and “yang” were the symbols of coldness and hotness. The power of your body came from “yang”. And drinking warm water could nourish the “yang” energy. That’s why Chinese doctors always say that people should not drink cold water.
Besides this, before people in the north of China had central heating, it was hard for them to stand the cold in winter. Drinking hot water helped them keep warm.
Another reason is that in the early 20th century, the Chinese government encouraged people to drink more warm boiled water. It has also helped the Chinese to build this special habit.
59. Why did ancient Chinese people drink boiled water according to the text
A．Because boiled water could protect them from bacteria.
B．Because they wanted to keep warm in winter.
C．Because the government told them to do so.
D．Because boiled water was more delicious.
60. What benefit does drinking warm boiled water have for people according to Paragraph 3
A．It can stop “yin” from entering the body.
B．It can make the body full of cold energy.
C．It can help people kill the bacteria in water.
D．It can help build up the “yang” energy in the body.
61. How many reasons why Chinese people like drinking boiled water are mentioned
A．Two. B．Three. C．Four. D．Five.

I started making paper-cuts last year when my grandma taught me how. She showed me some beautiful old paper-cuts first. At first, I thought it was easy, but I quickly realized it needed skills and patience. My first try didn’t go well. Some lines were not straight, and others broke easily. I wanted to stop, but my grandma said, “The first step is always the hardest.”
I practiced every weekend. I used colourful paper to make each piece. Slowly, my paper-cuts got better. I made flowers, animals, and even Chinese characters like “fu” (blessing) and “xi” (joy). Last month, I made a set of paper-cuts for my Chinese teacher’s birthday. Mrs Lin loved them so much that she put them up in the classroom. All my classmates said they looked lovely.
Making paper-cuts has become my favourite hobby. It helps me relax after school and teaches me perseverance. Every time I finish a piece, I feel a sense of achievement. This DIY hobby also connects me to my culture, as paper cutting is a traditional Chinese art with a long history. It reminds me that with practice and patience, I can make anything.
62. Why did the writer make paper-cuts for her Chinese teacher
A．To celebrate the teacher’s birthday.
B．To show off her paper cutting skills.

Every year, millions of people cook in their kitchens. While cooking can be fun, it can also be dangerous if we are not careful. A recent report shows that kitchen fires caused a large number of injuries and damage. Many of these accidents happened because people were not paying attention to kitchen safety rules.
The most common cause of kitchen fires is that food or oil gets too hot for too long on the stove. This can catch fire quickly. If you see smoke or fire, don’t panic! You should turn off the stove right away. If a fire starts, don’t try to put it out with water. This can make the condition worse. Instead, use a fire extinguisher, which is designed to safely stop the fire.
Another way to stay safe is not leaving the kitchen while cooking. Always stay near the stove. If you need to leave the kitchen for any reason, turn off the stove first. If a fire breaks out, you should put out the fire with a wet towel, but it’s best to use a fire extinguisher.
Kitchen fires are a serious danger, but we can reduce the risks by following safety rules. Always be careful around hot stoves and keep a fire extinguisher nearby. Cooking safely will help keep your kitchen safe!
65. Which is the most common cause of kitchen fires
A．Cooking with too big fire quickly.
B．Putting too much oil in the pan.
C．Not using a fire extinguisher in the kitchen.
D．Leaving hot food or oil on the stove for too long.
66. What does the underlined phrase “fire extinguisher” mean
67. What is the main idea of Paragraph 3
A．The best way to put out a kitchen light fire.
B．A safety tip for cooking in the kitchen.
C．How long we should stay near the stove.
D．Where to place a fire extinguisher in the kitchen.

C．Cooking Safety in the Kitchen
D．Safety Tips for Using the Stove

Astronauts may soon be going to the moon again as NASA plans to build bases there. Astronauts will not be able to take all the food they will need, so they may have to grow some of it on moon farms.
But can plants grow on the moon Maybe. That is according to a new study. Scientists used the soil brought back by Apollo program astronauts from the moon to grow plants on Earth. Scientists put this soil in little cups and some Earth soil in other cups, then planted seeds, watered them and placed the cups under growth lights.
In the Earth soil, plants grew healthy leaves. In the Moon soil, plants grew leaves, too. But those plants were smaller. And they were less healthy. The older the moon soil was, the worse the plants grew.
Stephen Elardo is one of the scientists. He says it still might be possible to grow plants on the moon. The key to the success of the study could lie on where on the moon you do your planting.
Scientists still have much to learn. But this study brings humans one step closer to calling the moon home.
69. Why do astronauts need to grow food on the moon
A．Because they enjoy farming.
B．Because they cannot bring all their food from Earth.
C．Because moon soil is very healthy.
D．Because NASA wants to sell moon vegetables.
70. Which picture shows the relationship between the age of the moon soil (x) and the plants’ growth (y)
71. What makes the success of the programme according to Stephen Elardo
A．The weather. B．The number. C．The time. D．The place.
72. What is the main purpose of the study mentioned in the article
A．To test if astronauts can live on Mars.
B．To see if plants can grow in moon soil.
C．To compare Earth and moon vegetables.
D．To find new ways to cook moon food.

Cuju, the ancient Chinese football, is the oldest football game in the world. According to historical records, it appeared in the Shang Dynasty and the equipment was a stone ball which was encouraged by the army to build up a strong body among the soldiers. In the Han Dynasty, it became even more popular and was written into military science. There were no less than 25 kinds of the game.
It is said that the first emperor of the Han Dynasty Liu Bang was proud of his father who was quite good at playing the ancient football—Cuju. In the Southern Song Dynasty, the earliest football club or guild was set up and named “Yuanshe”. At that time, many writings and art works were created on the theme of Cuju, which showed its success. It was popular among all kinds of people and was played by people of all ages.
However, it slowly fell into decline, maybe because of the traditional idea of peace and kindness. Although Cuju was a competitive game at first, people, especially the ruling class, tried to make it a game for fun only. Today this game has been part of National Traditional Games of Ethnic Minorities of the People’s Republic of China.
