In the famous Chinese saying "You take Yangguan Road, and I will cross the log bridge", why does Yangguan Road refer to an open road?
In Chinese culture, when two friends decide to pursue different paths, they often use this saying. It simply means “you go your way, I'll go mine”.
Yangguan Road was an open road that crossed the Yangguan Pass（阳关）in ancient China. It was located in Dunhuang, Gansu in Northwest China. The
Yangguan and Yumenguan passes were important to the Western Regions（西域）, or the then﹣Central Asian countries that existed during Han Dynasty.
In Chinese, yang means “sunny”, but it can also mean “south”（the sunny side of a hill being the southern side）. Yangguan was therefore named because it lies to the south of the Yumenguan Pass.
Because it was the last stop for Chinese travelers leaving China to the Western Regions,Yangguan is usually connected with the parting（分离）of ways in Chinese literature. In one of his most famous poems, Tang Dynasty poet Wang Wei wrote, “West of the sunny pass no more friends will be seen”.
Yangguan Pass was also an important landmark on the ancient Silk Road. People from all over the world would do business along the Yangguan Road. The road used to be very broad and busy. It is said that it could have been as wide as 100meters in some parts. Therefore, Yangguan Road has been gradually understood to represent an open road.
( )41. Where was Yangguan Pass located?　 　
A. In North China B. In South China
C. In Southeast China D. In Northwest China
( )42. What did Yangguan Road refer to in ancient China?　 　
A. An open road that crossed Yangguan Pass.
B. A road that was between the Yangguan and Yumenguan passes.
C. Any road that was broad and busy.
D. Any road that was built on the sunny side of a hill.
( )43. Why was Yangguan Pass named like this?　 　
A. Because the pass received a lot of sunshine every year.
B. Because it was in the southern part of Gansu province.
C. Because it was on the sunny side of Yumenguan Pass.
D. Because the name could cheer travelers.
( )44. Yangguan was connected with parting because　 　.
A. people would often part there and go in different directions
B. Poet Wang Wei wrote a poem there about parting
C. it separated into two different paths
D. people came and went through it to do business.
( )45. What do we know from the story?　 　
A. Yangguan Pass was built during the Qing Dynasty.
B. Yumenguan Pass was one's last stop before leaving China.
C. Wang Wei wrote many famous poems about Yangguan.
D. Yangguan Pass was an important landmark on the ancient Silk Road.

He said later that he thought of killing himself after so many failures. But soon Carnegie was seen practicing public speaking on the riverside. His hard work paid off(得到好结果) at last. In 1906, Carnegie won a famous speech contest and became widely known. The young man made his own words come true:“Believe that you will succeed, and you will”. 
　In order to share his success, Carnegie opened schools and wrote books. His bestsellers include“How to Win Friends and Influence(影响) People”and“How to Stop Worrying and Start Living”.

You must still remember Typhoon(台风) Hato, Pakhar, Mawar and Hurricane(飓风) Harvey. These storms have been harming Asia and North America during the last few months in 2021. But have you ever wondered where the names of storms come from?
During World War II, US military (军队的) weathermen named hurricanes after their girlfriends or wives. It was easy to remember. So after the war, women’s names continued to be used for storms. Finally in 1979, men’s names started to be used, too.
Now, the WMO(世界气象组织) is responsible for(负责) hurricane names. They keep six lists of names, with one list used each year. This means each name will be reused every six years. So, the 2021 name list is now being used again in 2021.
However, if a storm is especially damaging (破坏巨大的), such as 2005’s Katrina, that storm’s name will not be used again.
Typhoons are the brother of hurricanes, though they happen in the Pacific Ocean instead of the Atlantic Ocean (where hurricanes usually take place).
The new naming system for typhoons has been used since 2000. The WMO asked each of its 14 members in the Asia Pacific area to hand in a list of 10 names. Members include China, Japan and South Korea.
But instead of picking human names, scientists decided to name typhoons after animals, plants, places and even food.
根据上面的短文内容填空。
79. During World War II, a weatherman in the US army would name a hurricane after ______________________.
To him, it was __________________________.
80. Now _________ is supposed to think of all hurricane names. In 2021, they should use the _________ name list.
81. No storm will be called _______ any more, as the storm with the same name in 2005 was _____________.
82. Only the 14 WMO members in ________________ are required to prepare names for typhoons.
That’s probably because __________________________________.
83. This article mainly tells us how __________________________________.
We also know scientists now prefer not to use _____________________ to name typhoons.

One possible version:
Dear friends,
I am glad to know you will come to Taixing. I'll tell you something about our school life.
At school, we get along well with our teachers. The students often help and learn from each other. We listen carefully in class and hand in our homework on time after class. There is an art festival at our school every term. Students can watch different types of films and enjoy different art forms. We feel excited about it and we also learn a lot at the festival.
In our free time, we often work as volunteers. Sometimes, we help clean up the parks to keep them beautiful. Besides, we go to the home for the elderly. We help the old people do some cleaning and shopping. This bring them a lot of pleasure.
However, we still have some problems. Some students often stay up to complete their homework. Some students don’t have a healthy diet. These are harmful to our health.
In my opinion, we should manage our time better and eat more fruit and vegetables. It’s better for us to form a good habit.
Welcome to my hometown. I hope you will have a good time here.
Yours
