Food is like a magical bridge and it connects people from different places and backgrounds. Let me tell you a story about my friend Li Rong.
Last year, Li went to America to study. The food there was very different from that in China. She missed the warm soups, spicy (麻辣的) noodles, and fresh dumplings from China. At school, Li felt a bit lonely because she didn’t know anyone. One day, during lunchtime, a girl named Olivia saw Li sitting at the table by herself. So she invited Li to join her and her friends for lunch.
Olivia’s friends all had brought different kinds of food from their countries. There was pizza from Italy, sushi from Japan, and hamburgers from America. Li felt a little nervous at first, but when she tried the different foods, she said, “How delicious they are!” She also shared her dumplings with everyone, and they all loved them.
From that day on, Li and Olivia became good friends. They started sharing and cooking together after school. Li learned so much about the culture of Olivia’s country through the food they shared. This experience with Olivia showed Li that food and friendship could cross borders (边界).
So you see, food can bring people together, help them learn about each other, and make new friends, no matter where they come from.

A．Excited. B．Nervous. C．Lonely. D．Shy.
30. What did Olivia invite Li to do during lunchtime

32. The writer told Li Rong’s story to ________.

Have you ever heard that you should drink eight glasses of water every day Lots of grownups try to drink so much water to stay healthy. But scientists have found that there’s no perfect number of water glasses for everyone.
In a study, researchers checked out 5,600 people. These people included babies just one week old and greatgrandparents aged 96! The researchers wanted to learn how much water goes into our body and then comes out. They discovered that everyone needs a different amount of water. How much water you need depends on things like your age, how long you run and play, and whether you are a boy or a girl. For example, young men around 20 to 35 years old need almost twice as much water as men in their nineties!
Also, scientists noticed a difference. Very active people need more water than less active people. And here’s a fun fact: the foods we eat also have water in them!
The scientists from this study think most of us don’t really need to drink eight glasses of water every day. Our bodies are good at telling us when we’re thirsty. So the best thing to do is to listen to your body and drink water when you feel thirsty. And don’t forget: having fun is also a great way to stay healthy, just like drinking water!
33. The writer starts the passage ________.
A．by telling a story B．by using a saying C．by asking a question D．by giving an example
34. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage
A．The study only studied young people. B．Eating less fruits helps you stay healthy. C．Everyone needs the same amount of water.
D．The water people need also comes from the foods they eat.
35. What’s the best title for the passage
A．Do We Really Need Eight Glasses of Water a Day
B．Want to Stay healthy Drink More Water!
C．Eight Glasses of Water a Day Is Perfect! D．When Is the Best Time to Drink Water

In spring, sandstorms are a common natural disaster. They usually happen on dry and windy days. As middle school students, it’s very important for us to learn more about them.
A sandstorm is serious. Strong winds carry a lot of sand and dust (沙尘), make the sky yellow and grey, and leave visibility (可见度) very poor. It is harmful to our eyes, noses and lungs (肺), and brings much trouble to our daily life and study.
According to visibility, sand and dust weather includes several levels.
Floating dust <3m per second <10 kilometers
Sand-blowing >1 kilometer <10 kilometers
Sandstorm <1 kilometer
Severe sandstorm <500 meters
Super severe sandstorm <50 meters
To protect ourselves, we must follow these rules. First, stay indoors as much as possible and close doors and windows tightly. Second, if we have to go out, wear masks, hats and glasses to prevent dust from reaching us. Third, do not run or play outside in a sandstorm, because we may get lost or hurt. Fourth, after coming back home, wash our hands and face, and clean our noses at once.
It is our duty to improve our living environment. The Student Centre will hold a tree-planting activity to help reduce sandstorms. Welcome to join in and play a part!
51. How is the weather usually during a spring sandstorm
It is usually ____________.
