Crossing-the-bridge noodles is a special dish that originated(起源)in Yunnan Province. It has become such a popular part of Yunnan culture that in 2014, the way to make it was listed as an item of the national intangible cultural heritage.
There is a story behind the first creation of crossing-the-bridge noodles. It is said that there was a scholar(秀才)during the Qing Dynasty. He studied every day on an island of Mengzi city in Yunnan. His favorite food was rice noodles, and his wife brought him the noodles every day. But she was disappointed when she found the noodles would get cold on the way to the island.
One day, she took her husband chicken soup and it stayed warm during the trip. She realized that the oil on top of the soup kept the cold outside and the heat inside. The wife then came up with an idea. She tried bringing the chicken soup, rice noodles, and other ingredients(原料)separately and then mixed them after she arrived on the island. That way the dish stayed hot and the noodles were fresh when they were added just before eating.
Word spread quickly about the delicious dish and the wife's smart way of keeping the food hot. The dish became known as "crossing-the-bridge noodles" in memory of the wife as she needed to cross a bridge to the island every day.

After a 10-year project to count tuna and other large fish in the world's oceans, scientists have made a very surprising discovery: these fish are almost gone. Because of too much fishing, almost 90 percent of the worldwide population of large fish—the ones we usually eat—has disappeared. If we don’t act, these animals will totally disappear. That will influence every animal in the ocean.
The demand for fish is growing. Almost a billion people around the world get their protein (蛋白质) mostly from fish. Doctors praise seafood for being low in fat. But what seems like a healthy choice for humans is causing a disaster to our oceans. “People are consuming (消费) too much,” says Lance Morgan, a scientist at the Marine Conservation Biology Institute.
A dish of tuna in restaurants costs more than just one animal's life. When fish like tuna disappear from the ecosystem (生态系统), the ocean’s food chain (链) breaks down. Animals such as sharks, which normally eat tuna, may die because they find no food.
The news may be scary, but taking action from now on can prevent harm that hasn’t happened yet. World organizations are ordering countries to stop fishing too much. The Monterey Bay Aquarium gives seafood choices to anyone hoping to keep healthy without destroying the environment.
“If you care about wildlife, first spend time and think about your own values and beliefs,” says Morgan. “Then decide what you’re going to eat.”
1.How does the writer start the text
A.By giving a fact. B.By asking a question. C.By telling a story.
2.What does the underlined word “demand” in Paragraph 2 probably mean
A.希望 B.支持 C.需求
3.From Paragraph 3, we know that ________.
A.if sharks die out, tuna will die out soon
B.tuna will be more popular in restaurants
C.tuna plays an important role in the ecosystem
4.What’s the purpose of the text
A.To tell people to stop polluting our oceans.
B.To tell people to protect wildlife in oceans.
C.To tell people to avoid eating too much seafood.

The human body has its limits(极限). There are many things that our bodies cannot do. 32 They surprise us. Here are some examples.
How long can you hold your breath underwater
Practicing holding your breath underwater is dangerous sometimes. If water goes into your lungs, you can die. With a little training, a person can hold his breath for two to three minutes. This is already quite impressive. Aleix Segura Vendrell is a diver from Spain. 33
How much can a human lift
Usually, a healthy person can lift 50 to 60 kilograms. 34 Lifting heavy things can tear our muscles(拉伤肌肉). But athletes can lift a lot more. Andy Bolton is a British weight lifter. He lifted 457.5 kilograms from the floor to his thigh(大腿). That’s the most that any human can lift, according to New Scientist.
35
What happens when people don’t get enough sleep They become angry easily. Sometimes they even can’t think very clearly. According to Huffpost, Randy Gardner from the US holds the record for the longest time spent awake. He didn’t sleep for 264 hours. That’s about 11 days.
Challenge your limits!
A.This is a safe lift. B.How often do we sleep C.How long can we stay awake D.But some people test these limits. E.He can hold his breath for about 24 minutes.

After graduating from a university in Nanjing in 1914, Tao Xingzhi 47 (continue) his education in the United States. He studied educational philosophy(哲学)under the guidance of John Dewey, 48 American philosopher and educator, at Columbia University. But when Tao returned to China in 1917 and began his own career as an educator, he did not copy Dewey's education methods 49 (blind). He changed them to improve China's education system.
After doing surveys in Beijing, Tianjin and Shanghai in 1921, Tao was 50 (surprise) to learn that the rate of urban illiteracy(文盲)in China went beyond 70 percent. 51 (solve) the problem, Tao organized young workers and farmers to study while working. To deal 52 the shortage of teachers and money, in 1927, Tao set up Xiaozhuang Normal College to train teachers and educators. In 1934, he started the "Little Teacher" campaign in which young students 53 (encourage) to serve as teachers to others, even to those older than themselves.

Hello, I’m Adam Smith. Do you know that many people are trying to learn a new language these days Some of them consider it as a hobby, while others have to learn a language because it is required by their jobs or study. 59. 作为一个外国人,我对中国文化非常感兴趣。That’s why I like learning Chinese. Now I’d like to share the experience of how I have learned Chinese well with you.
It is thought that a person needs to know at least 3,000 Chinese characters (汉字) to understand most Chinese newspapers. The problem for most foreigners, however, is that knowing 3,000 characters sounds like an impossible task, for many of the Chinese characters look the same. That’s why some people give up halfway. It’s the most difficult part for me, too. But I try to learn how to write each character by watching videos online. Whenever I saw a character I didn’t know in the street or on a menu, I would just write it down on my phone and then look it up. Slowly I’ve learned the characters that are common in daily life.
As for speaking, I practice talking about different topics in Chinese when I am cycling around, talking to myself or in my head, thinking through different conversations and scenes. For example, whenever I was going to a shop, I would think how to say that in Chinese. It helps me to think in a Chinese way, which is really important.
60. Learning a language is never easy. But as long as I learn it step by step, I will make progress day by day.
56.Why does Adam Simth like learning Chinese
57.Is knowing 3,000 Chinese characters difficult for most foreigners
58.How does Adam Simth learn to write each Chinese character
59.请将画线部分的中文59. 作为一个外国人,我对中国文化非常感兴趣。翻译成英文。
60.请将画线部分的英文60. Learning a language is never easy. But as long as I learn it step by step, I will make progress day by day.翻译成中文。

Hello, I’m Adam Smith. Do you know that many people are trying to learn a new language these days Some of them consider it as a hobby, while others have to learn a language because it is required by their jobs or study. 59. 作为一个外国人,我对中国文化非常感兴趣。That’s why I like learning Chinese. Now I’d like to share the experience of how I have learned Chinese well with you.
It is thought that a person needs to know at least 3,000 Chinese characters (汉字) to understand most Chinese newspapers. The problem for most foreigners, however, is that knowing 3,000 characters sounds like an impossible task, for many of the Chinese characters look the same. That’s why some people give up halfway. It’s the most difficult part for me, too. But I try to learn how to write each character by watching videos online. Whenever I saw a character I didn’t know in the street or on a menu, I would just write it down on my phone and then look it up. Slowly I’ve learned the characters that are common in daily life.
As for speaking, I practice talking about different topics in Chinese when I am cycling around, talking to myself or in my head, thinking through different conversations and scenes. For example, whenever I was going to a shop, I would think how to say that in Chinese. It helps me to think in a Chinese way, which is really important.
60. Learning a language is never easy. But as long as I learn it step by step, I will make progress day by day.
