It was a handwritten letter thanking me for some Shanghai cookies I’d sent her.Aunt Lorraine is ninety-one years old and she has wonderful manners, which is why she sent me the“thank you”letter. She also has wonderful handwriting. Her penmanship is smooth and flowing with each individual letter and word perfectly formed. She is a pleasure to read.Aunt Lorraine was educated at a time when penmanship was considered an important skill. Today, in this age of e-mail and text messaging, few people have the time or inclination to write letters or practice their penmanship. This is unfortunate, but good penmanship is still important, especially in school. If you want to get good grades on your essays, neatness counts. Y our essay might be full of good ideas but messy handwriting can turn an A into a B. And illegible handwriting can get you a D.Good penmanship has other benefits, too. Since it’s a skill, it trains your brain and develops your learning abilities. It also helps you to organize your thoughts and ideas. And, believe it or not, that slow process of pushing a pen along paper improves your reading, spelling and even your pronunciation of English.Apart from(除了) all these educational benefits, good penmanship also has personal benefits.A neatly written letter to a friend is something they will treasure forever. A letter that looks as if a chicken had danced across the paper will be quickly tossed. I’ve kept the letter from my Aunt Lorraine, it’s a treasure!51.

Y ou would probably read this passage from ______.A. a talk showB. a movie magazineC. an adD. a notice（C）Did you ever wonder why your favorite foods taste so good? Well, you should thank your taste buds(味蕾) for letting you enjoy the saltiness and the sweetness.Taste buds are sensory organs（感觉器官）that are found on your tongue and allow you to experience tastes that are sweet, salty, sour and bitter. The average person has about 10,000 taste buds and they’re replaced（替换）every 2 weeks or so. But as a person grows older, some of those taste buds don’t get replaced. An older person may only have 5,000 working taste buds. That’s why certain foods may have a stronger taste for children than they do for adults. Smoking can also reduce the number of taste buds a person has.But before you give taste buds all the thanks for your favorite flavors(滋味), it’s im portant to thank your nose too. The upper part of your nose can receive the chemicals that make your brain create the sensation(感觉) of flavor. So when you have a cold, and your nose is stuffy, you might notice that your food doesn’t seem to have much flavo r. If you hold your nose while eating, your taste buds ar e able to tell your brain something about what you’re eating —that it’s sweet, for instance —but you won’t be able to pick out the exact flavor until you let go of your nose.So the next time you enjoy an apple or some soup, thank your tongue and your nose! Without them, life wouldn’t have any flavors.61. How many working taste buds may an old man have?A. 10,000.B. 5,000.C. 2,000.D. 8,000.62. What does the underlined word ― reduce‖ me an in Chinese?A. 减少B. 增加C. 改变D. 失去63. What can we learn from the passage?A. The same food has a stronger taste for children than for adults.B. Adults can enjoy some foods more easily.C. A person can’t smell things that are sweet, salty, sour, an d bitter.D. People’s taste buds will not work when they hold their noses.64. What will happen if you catch a bad cold and your nose is stuffy?A. Y ou can’t taste anything at all.B. Things will taste the same.C. Y ou won’t be able to tell the exact flavo r.D. Y our brain will create a stronger flavor.65. What does the second paragraph mainly tell us?A. How to enjoy delicious food.B. What are taste buds.C. How do taste buds work.D. We should thank our noses.(D)Here are some tips on how to talk with your parents.Try to start your talk with something fun. This will make talking easier.

Ask them to do the same for you.Show them respect by listening to them carefully. Look at their eyes sincerely.Be honest. Honesty builds trust(信任). Life is good when your parents trust you.If your parents don’t understand, that’s OK. It doesn’t mean they don’t love you or they’re nottrying.
