People call the Chinese diving team a “a dream team”. It has been a world-class team since the days of Fu Mingxia back in the early 1990s. It still has a bright future these days with Quan Hongchan, 14, a new diving star.
Quan was the youngest member of the Chinese team at the Tokyo 2020 Olympics, but she wowed the world by getting perfect 10s three times to win the women’s 10-meter dive. This surprised not only the whole team, but also Quan herself. “I’ve never thought of beating a few world champions（冠军）in the match,” Quan said. “I just saw the competition as training. To be brave and just go jumping.”
People thought Quan was born with great talent in diving, but Quan didn’t think so. “I just dived every day. Each day, I needed to practice about seven hours, and some days I practiced for 10 hours,” she told China Daily. And she remembered how it felt when she started to learn diving at the age of 7. “It was so much fun,” she said. However, it takes more than just interest for a beginner to become successful. “If I stop training for a day or two, I feel scared when I get back on the 10-meter board. A diver needs to practice every day and try her best every day,” she added.
In fact, Quan was born in a poor family in Guangdong in 2007. Her mother was badly ill and she worried about her very much. She decided to do all her best for her mother even when she was at an early age, which touched people all around China.
54. What does the word wowed in Para. 2 mean

Stomach flue is one of the most unpleasant of a common illness. It spreads easily. That’s especially true if someone in your family has it. A virus can cause stomach flu, but not the same one that causes common flu. There's no medicine to make it go away at once. But there are some things you can do to stop catching it.
You can stop stomach flu by washing your hands often. Use hot water and soap to wash your hands. Using soap is better than using nothing, but it doesn’t work very well against stomach flu. That’s because soap can’t kill virus completely.
The virus that causes stomach flu is hard to kill. Normal cleaners(清洁剂) won’t always get rid of it. So mix bleach (漂白剂) with water, and use that to clean your house. If someone in your family is sick, remember to clean things that person has touched.
Dishwashers are better at killing viruses than washing the dishes by hand. That’s because they keep the dishes hotter or longer. Many viruses can live in your washing machine. So wash clothes with hot water and use bleach, if possible. You may even run the washing machine with no clothes, just hot water and bleach. This will kill any virus in it.
If you do get the stomach flu, drink as much water as possible. If you're feeling better, don't return to work or school right away. You can still spread the disease for a few days after you feel better. If you have a fever, wait at least 24 hours after it ends before going out. This will help stop other people from getting sick.
Stomach flu is awful, but by following these tips above, you can keep away from it.
61. From paragraph 1, we know that ________.
A. stomach flu is a pleasant common flu.
B. medicine can make stomach flu go away at once.
C. if someone around you catches stomach flu, you may catch it, too.
D. the same virus can cause stomach flu and common flu.
62. What does the underline phrase “get rid of” probably mean in paragraph 3
A. 逃离 B. 除去 C. 避免 D. 变糟
63. Which of the following is the best to kill viruses
A. Washing your hands with water and soap.
B. Mixing bleach with water to clean your house.
C. Washing the dishes and clothes with bleach by hand.
D. Running the washing machine without clothes, just with hot water and bleach.
64. What should we do after a fever ends
A. Take as little medicine as possible. B. Return to work or school at once.
C. Wait at least 24 hours before going out. D. Go to see the doctor again.
65. Which of the following shows the structure of the passage
A. B. C. D.

According to Lu Yu’s Tea Classics, Chinese began to drink tea in the Zhou Dynasty. Shennong discovered tea and it became popular as a drink in the State of Lu because of Zhou Gong.
Tea-drinking in China has a history of four thousand years. As the legend has it, Shennong tasted hundreds of wild plants to stop people from eating the poisonous(有毒的) plants. It is said that he has poisoned seventy-two times in one day but he got better by eating some leaves of an evergreen plant with white flowers. Later, people called the leaves “cha”.
In modern times, tea can also have effects on some modern illnesses. If people have to work with computers for a long time, drinking tea can help them to build up a wall against the computer radiation(辐射). If people have too much fat, drinking tea can help them to recreate a new balance in their bodies. And if people are over 60 years old, drinking tea is also a good way to keep calm for a longer life.
