As an old saying in China goes," The days of the Saniu period are the coldest days.” “The Sanjiu period”，which is in Minor Cold（小寒），refers to the third nine-day period （the 19th to the 27th day） after the day of the winter solstice（冬至）．There are many different customs related to Minor Cold in China.

Eating hot pot

During Minor Cold, people should eat some hot food to benefit the body and defend against the cold weather. Winter is the best time to have hot pot and braised mutton with soy sauce. But it is important to notice that too much spicy food may cause health problems.

Eating glutinous rice（糯米饭）

According to tradition, the Cantonese eat glutinous rice in the morning during Minor Cold. Cantonese people mix fried preserved pork, sausages and peanuts into the rice.

Eating vegetable rice

People in Nanjing used to take Minor Cold quite seriously. As time goes by, the celebration of Minor Cold gradually disappears. However, the custom of eating vegetable rice is still followed today.

As 17-year-old Torri ‘ell Norwood drove through Florida, last February, the laughter and chatter from the four teenage girls inside her car quickly gave way to screams. As they approached an intersection, another car T-boned them, sending their car sailing into the yard of a nearby home, coming to a stop only when it crashed into a tree.

As smoke rose from the car， a bystander shouted， “It‘’s about to explode（爆炸）！Get out！”Shaken，but otherwise OK，Norwood crawled（爬）out through the window as the driver's side door couldn't be opened. Along with two of her friends, who’d also managed to free themselves, she ran for her life. But halfway down the street, she realized that her best friend, Simmons, wasn't with them. Norwood ran back and found Simmons unconscious in the back seat. She threw open the back door and pulled her friend out. She dragged（拖；拽）Simmons a few feet to safety and laid her on the ground. After checking her pulse（脉搏） and found there was no sign of life， she started CPR.

Had the accident happened a few weeks earlier, she might not have known what to do. But just the day before, Norwood, who wanted to pursue a career in medicine, had earned her CPR certificate by learning on her own. Kneeling（跪） on the ground and looking down at her dying friend, Norwood knew she had precious little time to practice what she'd learned.

She started pumping Simmons's chest with her interlocked fingers and breathing into her friend's mouth in hopes of filling her lungs with the kiss of life. After quite a while, Simmons began coughing and taking quick deep breaths for air. The CPR had worked! Soon, the ambulance arrived and rushed Simmons to the hospital. And then she heard how her best friend had saved her life. “I wasn't shocked,” Simmons told others. “She will always help any way she can.”

24.What caused the car crash?

A.The girls were too excited to notice another car.

B. Norwood drove the car too quickly that day.

C. Norwood's car crashed into a tree in a yard.

D. Another car hit Norwood's car near the intersection.

25.What's Norwood's immediate reaction after hearing the bystander's warning?

A.She crawled out through the window and looked for her friends.

B. She ran for her life but turned back to save her friend.

C. She dragged her friends out and performed CPR at once.

D. She opened the driver's side door and pulled her friend out.

26. Why did Norwood know how to perform CPR?

A. She had learned CPR in school classes.

B.She just received her CPR certificate.

C. The bystander told her how to do it.

D.She pursued a career in medicine.

27.Which of the following can best describe Norwood?

It's 3 o'clock and you've been hard at work. As you sit at your desk, a strong desire for chocolate overcomes you. You try to busy yourself to make it go away. But it doesn't. Here is another situation. Perhaps you are not feeling well. The only thing you want to eat is a big bowl of chicken soup, like your mom used to make when you were sick as a child. Food cravings（渴望）are a strong desire for a specific type of food. And they are normal.

Scientists at the website How Stuff Works compare hunger and cravings this way. Hunger is a fairly simple connection between the stomach and the brain. They even call it simply “stomach hunger.” When our stomachs burn up all of the food we have eaten, a hormone（荷尔蒙）sends a message to one part of the brain for more food， which controls our most basic body functions such as thirst, hunger and sleep. The brain then produces a chemical to start the appetite and you eat. Hunger is a function of survival.

A craving is more complex. It activates（刺激）brain areas related to emotion， memory and reward. These are the same areas of the brain activated during drug-craving studies. Because of this, some scientists call food cravings “mind hunger.”  People often crave foods that are high in fat and sugar. Foods that are high in fat or high in sugar produce chemicals in the brain. These chemicals give us feelings of pleasure.

In a 2007 study, researchers at Cambridge University found that “dieting or controlled eating generally increases the possibility of food craving.” So, the more you refuse yourself a food that you want, the more you may crave it. However, fasting is a bit different. They found that eating no food at all for a short period of time reduced food cravings.

So, the next time you crave something very special, know that it's the fault of your brain, instead of your stomach.

28. The author describes two situations in the first paragraph to       

A. deepen the understanding of hunger

B.  report the discovery of craving study

C. introduce the topic of the whole passage

D. remind readers of their own special food

29. What do we learn about food craving?

A.It shows food is connected with emotion.

B. It makes sure that a person survives hunger.

C. It means the stomach functions well.

D.It proves the brain decides your appetite.

30.What's the likely result of dieting?

A. The drop of chemicals.

C.The refusal of fat and sugar.

B. The increase of food desire.

D. The disappearance of appetite.

31.In which part of a newspaper can you see this passage?

A.Education.

C.Science.

B.Entertainment.

D.Economy.

D

In Canada and the United States, there are a new group of children called “satellite kids”, who live in one place but whose parents live in another place.

Asians are immigrating to Canada and the United States in larger numbers than ever before. Most Asians immigrate because they believe that they can give their children a better education in the west. In Asia, especially in China, Japan, and Korea, it is difficult to go to university. Students must first pass the strict national examination. However, in Canada and the United States, it is easy to go to university, and anyone who wants to go can go. As a result, Asian parents decide to leave their countries so that their children can go to university.

The problem is that when Asians arrive, they discover that finding a job and making money are more difficult in the West than in the East. Also, they find that they are very lonely, and that they miss their homes. Because of these two reasons, most Asian parents decide to go back to work while their children study in the West. Therefore, these children become “satellite kids”, and most of their parents do not know how sad it is to be a “satellite kid”.

Only until now are Canadians and Americans discovering the “satellite kid” problem. Because these children do not speak English and their parents are not there to take care of them, they are often absent from school. To be a “satellite kid” means growing up in the surroundings where you know you are different and where you cannot make friends because you do not speak English well. Also, it means growing up lonely, because your parents are elsewhere. What these “satellite kids” will probably say to their parents is that it's better to have parents around than to have a university education.

32. Some Asian parents send their kids abroad because       

A.they hope their children may easily find a job there

B.the kids may not be accepted by universities in their own country

C.all foreign universities are better than the ones in their own country

D. the kids want to improve their English and foreign friends

33. “Satellite kids” refer to the Asian kids     

A.without parents

B.living abroad alone

C.with university education

D. not speaking English

34. Some Asian immigrant children become “satellite kids" because their parents     

A.want to leave their own country

B.want them to go to university

C.return to their countries to work

D.want them to be independent

35.What is the main idea of the passage?

A.Parents want a better education for their kids.

B.Parents feel lonely and miss their families.

C.Canadians and Americans begin to notice the "satellite kid" problem.

D.Kids in foreign countries alone are badly in need of care from families.

At Sandringham I got to know this kid, Teddy, a funny guy. He is one of those friends with whom you start hanging out and from that day forward you're never apart. We were both very naughty. When you put us together, it was a disaster. Walking home from school, we’d throw rocks through windows, just to see them broken, and then we'd run away.

One Saturday night, we were at the shopping center, and most of the shops were closed. The cinema was still showing movies and the building was still open. There was a shop that sold greeting cards and magazines, and it didn't have a door. So when it closed at night，there was only a metal gate，like a trellis（架子），which was pulled across the entrance and padlocked（用挂锁锁上）.Walking past this shop，Teddy and I realized that if we put our arms through the trellis, we could reach the chocolate just inside. Looking at the chocolate, Teddy and I could not bear the excitement. We reached in, took a few, and then swallowed the chocolates. We started going back again and again t steal more.

We did this every weekend for at least a month. Then we pushed our luck too far. It was a Saturday night. I reached in to take a chocolate, and at that exact moment, a security guard came around the corner and saw me with my arm in up to my shoulder. I brought my hand out with a bunch of chocolates in it. I saw him. He saw me, his eyes went wide. 注意：

1．所续写短文的词数为150左右；

2．续写部分分为两段，每段的开头语已为你写好。

I tried to walk away acting normally.                                           

The next day when Teddy and I ran into the classroom, the headmaster was there waiting.
