Where to Eat Chinese Food on Christmas in Charm City
It doesn’t feel like Christmas without a plate of Chinese dish. Here are a few of Baltimore’s Chinese food restaurants that are open on Christmas Day.
Red Pepper Sichuan Bistro: Head to this Towson hangout to try Sichuan dishes that include salty, sour, sweet, and even floral flavors (花香).

Grace Garden: This Odenton treasure is all about typical Chinese style. Look out for family-style servings of pocket tofu, fish noodles, and tea - smoked duck with perfectly crisp (酥脆的) skin. The sugary fried rolls are also a must to end the meal on a sweet note.

John Agnello, a 15-year-old boy, was out fishing with his mom near the Lakefront Marina in Grosse Pointe Woods Tuesday afternoon when he saw that a car just got flying in the air. It was about 15 yards away and dropped into the water.
Without hesitation, John said, he and a man jumped into the water to help the woman inside the car. “The car was at like 65% water, so then we had to get her out of the window because the door wasn’t opening,” he said. He and the man pulled the woman to safety, who lost consciousness (意识). John’s mom, Beth Agnello, called 911 at once. John wondered whether there was anybody else inside the car, so he jumped back into the water. Thankfully, the car was empty.
“The only part that kind of scared me was when I was under the water inside the car, feeling around in there,” John said. “It was kind of like I got trapped in the car. But everything was fine.”
Beth Agnello said she is so proud of her son who is being called a hero. “I’m hoping that he isn’t proud of being a hero and considers some work options for his future,” Beth Agnello said.
John Agnello said he doesn’t know if he’ll be a first responder in the future, but he does know he loves helping others. “I think that’s just how my family raised me just to take action to help,” John Agnello said.
St. Clair Shores police are investigating what caused the car to go into the water. Police said the woman was taken to the hospital to be examined.
24．Why did John go back under the water
A．To find something valuable. B．To ensure nobody was in the car.
C．To show off his swimming skills. D．To check the condition of the car.
25．What made John frightened
A．The emptiness of the car. B．Too much water in the car.
C．The absence of other rescuers. D．The difficulty of getting out of the car.
26．What does Beth Agnello hope
A．John chooses fishing as his future job.
B．Fishing can earn her family more money.
C．John stays grounded despite the recognition.
D．The police can prevent such things happening.
27．Which of the following can best describe John
A．Brave and helpful. B．Active and patient.
C．Selfless and honest. D．Adventurous and childish.
The “cold shock reaction” doesn’t seem like a good thing. When you suddenly jump into ice water, breathing heavily in the cold air, your heartbeat jumps, and your body begins to shake uncontrollably. Yet the practice of regularly bathing in cold water is becoming fashionable. The movement’s biggest promoter is probably Wim Hof, a Dutch athlete and health expert. Called “The Iceman”, Mr. Hof has stood in a container filled with ice for nearly two hours and has swum under ice for 66 metres — a world record.
His website says that practice burns fat, strengthens the immune system, balances hormones, improves sleep and lifts the mood. And cold does speed up a body’s metabolism. It also reduces the painful inflammation (炎症), which is why cold packs are placed on injuries.
But does a cold-water bath provide broad benefits A study in 2014 of 12 persons of Mr. Hof’s method found that they experienced fewer flu-like symptoms (症状) than a control group.
The largest study of what Mr. Hof and his followers call “power in the cold shower” was conducted in 2015. Researchers asked about 3,000 volunteers to either shower normally or end with a cold bath lasting 30,60 or 90 seconds. A month later, it showed that in any case there was no difference in the number of days for which members of the two groups felt ill.
Studies have shown cold baths to raise levels of dopamine (多巴胺) which is linked to pleasure. A study in 2023 of 33 adults given a five-minute cold bath and a brain scan found that they “felt more active, attentive, proud and inspired and less anxious and nervous”.
That finding, at least, seems to explain the movement’s popularity. For those seeking a break from comfortable modern life, cold water can be inviting.
28．What does Mr. Hof’s website say about the cold-water bath
A．It fails to take effect. B．It improves overall wellness.
C．It puts a person in a bad mood. D．It is suitable for young people.
29．How was the 2015 study performed about a cold bath
A．Through different dates. B．Through the amount of water.
C．Through various time lengths. D．Through selecting testing locations.
30．What was found about the 33 grown-ups
A．They were confirmed to be ill. B．They experienced a long cold bath.
C．They got positive mental influence. D．They were requested to take medicine.
31．What is the writer’s attitude towards the cold-water bath at the end of the text
A．Doubtful. B．Uninterested. C．Worried. D．Supportive.
More than 1,000 meters below the surface of the oceans, everything is in darkness. For animals living there, vision is unrelated; acoustic (声音的) signals, instead, are how they find their way, communicate and search for food.
That way of life has come under threat from decades of increasing human noise. A leading cause is shipping. By one research, shipping-noise productions double every 11.5 years.
With about 90% of traded goods traveling by sea, quieting the ocean through reductions in shipping itself is not tenable. Efforts to make ships more effective, and therefore less polluting, are likely to reduce noise. But experts say those measures will not do enough to bring back quiet. That is why a range of technologies are being developed, which could allow humans and other animals to co-exist in the ocean.
Much of the underwater noise a ship produces comes from its propeller (螺旋桨). The noise produced by the propeller can travel thousands of meters underwater without losing strength, messing up the movements of whales, which use these frequencies (频率) to communicate.
One solution, being developed by researchers at the University of British Columbia (UBC), puts flexible polymers (聚合物) into the metal propeller, allowing its tips to bend. “This movement prevents bubbles (气泡) from forming and therefore reduces the noise,” says Rajeev Jaiman of UBC． Based on experiments, the design could reduce noise by 20 decibels.
But shipping noise does not come only from the propeller. About 20% comes from the body of the ship, as engines work and the ship will let out continuous loud noise. At low speeds, this percentage rises.
MARIN researchers have experimented with a bubble screen positioned around the outside of the ship. These make a skirt of air bubbles around the back of the ship, where most machinery sits, preventing noise from spreading.
32．What does the underlined word “tenable” in Paragraph 3 mean
A．Difficult. B．Workable. C．Time-saving. D．Cost-friendly.
33．How are whales influenced by ships
A．Their habitat is polluted by ships.
B．Ships influence how far whales’ eyes can see.
C．Ships with giant bodies block whales’ swimming passage.
D．Noise from propellers messes up whales’ communication tools.
34．What is the key to reducing the noise from the propeller
A．Metal polymers. B．Increase of bubbles.
C．Bent tips of the propeller. D．Flexible shapes of the propeller.
35．What is the suitable title for the text
A．Structure of Ships Leads to Great Noise
B．Human Activities Affect Sea Animals Greatly
C．Experiments Are Conducted to Test Ship Performance
D．Noise-reducing Tech Makes Ships Affect Ocean Life Less
Teaching financial skills early isn’t optional anymore, and it’s essential. Kids are surrounded by ads, digital payments, and peer(同龄人) pressure before they even hit middle school. If they don’t learn how money works now, they’ll pay for it later. 36
Introduce money early with simple concepts.
Start with the basics, let them hold money, count change at the store, and watch how things are bought. This isn’t about teaching lessons. 37 Show how a dollar bill turns into a snack. That’s the first building block of financial confidence.
Use a piggy bank to teach saving habits.
A piggy bank isn’t just a cute decoration. It’s a child’s first savings account. 38 The goal is to show how money builds up over time. Watching the bank fill up becomes its own reward(回报). It teaches patience. And it starts a habit that beats unreasonable buying before it even begins.
Open a savings account in the bank.
Go with them to the bank. Let them meet the teller. Make it feel like a milestone. This introduces interest, bank statements, and the idea that money can work for them, even when they’re not touching it. 39 The money no longer belongs to the parents. The kids start seeing it as their own, and that shift is powerful.
40
Teaching the difference between needs and wants is one of the most important lessons in money management. Use real - life moments like grocery runs or online wish lists. Ask, “Do we need this, or do we just like it ” Once kids start asking themselves that question, they build self-control. And that skill pays off for life.
A．It also gives them pride in ownership.
B．Help them tell needs and wants apart.
C．Explain why you don’t buy everything they ask for.
D．Let your kid store birthday money or spare change in it.
E．It’s about connecting everyday moments to how money works.
F．They begin to understand that money can be used to make life better.
G．Here are some simple, real-life ways to help kids get smart with money.

It was Christmas Eve in the village of Hillspring. Mary Jepson was getting her six small children ready for bed. She helped each child hang a little old stocking. She felt her heart was full of sorrow because the bad weather had caused the situation to be even worse than before.
In October, Mary had received a letter from her sisters living in Idaho, who knew well about Mary’s situation. They wanted to know what they could send to the family for Christmas. Mary hadn’t written back right away. She didn’t want to tell them how poor the family really was. Finally in November, seeing that things were not going to get any better,she wrote a letter. She had requested only necessities. The week before Christmas, Mary’s husband Leland daily went to the post office for a package from Idaho. Each day he would receive the same disappointing answer.
Now, Mary looked up at the sad little old stockings still hanging empty, feeling that her heart was hanging just as empty. Outside the snowstorm was getting worse.
George worked as a postman. On this particular Christmas Eve, after George traveled through the snowstorm to deliver the last of the mail to the communities, darkness had already fallen. He went home. Placing the Christmas tree in the living room, he watched the children joyfully gathering around to decorate it.
Then he received a call from his office, saying that some large boxes had arrived from Idaho for the Jepson family. Thinking of the struggling Jepson family and the packages waiting at the post office, he decided to send the boxes to the Jepsons’ little farmhouse that very night.So he set out.
He struggled to find his way through the blinding snowstorm. With the snow deepening,his truck moved more and more slowly.

66．Dear fellow students,
Good morning. I’m Li Hua, a 10th-grade student. I’m greatly honored to deliver a speech themed “How to Use the Internet Wisely”.
The Internet contains a huge amount of information, which is extensive and relatively easy to access. It provides us with an excellent resource to gain knowledge. While the Internet is beneficial, it is essential to use it wisely. To begin with, you’re supposed to use it for research and skill development, not just entertainment. Next, it is recommended to limit your screen time, taking breaks once in a while. Last but not least, you should ensure the safety of the websites you visit.
Have fun with the Internet. Thank you for your listening.
67．
Finally, George arrived at the Jepsons’ farmhouse. He was relieved to see one small light still on in the house. Seeing the humble house, he knew his effort was worthwhile. George helped the couple carry the boxes inside. They were moved to tears, saying they couldn’t thank him enough. Seeing the family could have a pleasant Christmas, George felt delighted. It was already midnight, and George still faced about two difficult hours before getting back home, so he waved goodbye to the couple.
After seeing George off, Mary quickly began to unpack the boxes. She found that almost all the necessities were included: thick quilts, clothes for the children, salted meat, fresh bread, and handmade candies. Besides, there were six beautiful toys. Inside an envelope was a sum of cash as well as a letter, which expressed heartwarming greetings from Mary’s sisters. They said the money was for the family to buy something else that was needed. Seeing all the stuff, especially every stocking full of gifts, Mary felt warmth in her heart. It was the relatives and George that brought the family a merry Christmas.
