It's a we all take when we eat strange foods. But there are ways to enjoy good local food and getting ill. The following tips will help keep you .

● Drink clean water. In many places, tap water isn't clean enough to drink. Drink bottled water or soda .

When we look at animals, we know that they are not humans. But how do our closest friends dogs see us? Do they know that we are humans? Or do they actually think we are just strange-looking dogs?

You may be surprised to know that many kinds of animals do not see such differences very much at all. For example, the cuckoo(布谷鸟) lays its eggs in the nest of another bird. They look nothing like their real babies, but these birds will feed the ba6y cuckoos. This is because the birds feed in an instinctive(本能的) way.

Most animals, it seems, will simply separate the world into animals they eat, and animals that eat them. But when it comes to dogs, there is no simple answer to this question.

Sheepdogs leave their mothers when they are born. They grow up with sheep, and come to see them as their family. For this reason, they never attack(攻击)the sheep, and help protect them. They probably think the sheep are dogs too, but we can't be certain.

Similarly, if you keep a dog from birth, the way it sees the world will be different to a dog that grows up with other dogs. It will probably think it is the same kind of animals as you. This can even be true of humans. A Russian boy called Ivan Mishukov, born in 1998. was raised by dogs for two years and came to believe that he was a dog himself

【小题1】 Paragraph 2 mainly shows us that

A.the cuckoo is the laziest bird

B.birds are different from other animals

C.birds may not find any differences among themselves

D.feeding other animals is instinctive for birds

【小题2】 Most animals usually see other animals as_______.

A.friends or enemies(敌人) B.food or enemies

C.animals of the same kind D.animals who look strange

【小题3】 Why don't sheepdogs attack the sheep?

A.Because they think of the sheep as their mothers.

B.Because they think the sheep are another kind of dogs.

C.Because they are gentle animals and never attack others.

D.Because they grow up with sheep and see them as their family.

【小题4】 From the last paragraph, we learn that_______.

A.different dogs see the world in the same way

B.a pet dog may see itself as a human

C.dogs can give humans a lot of help

D.humans treat dogs as their best animal friends

How much pocket money do you get? How do you spend it? The Blue Book of Chinese Teenager Financial(金融的) Study shows that social activities now take up more of teenagers' spending. The book was about teenagers' spending habits in nine cities in China. such as Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou. The results show that students are spending more and more on their relationships(关系)with friends and classmates, such as having meals together and buying birthday gifts. Only one-third of high school students think about the price when choosing gifts. Most say they only care about what their friends like.

Xiao Hao, 17, a student at Gaoyou Normal School in Jiangsu, spent more than l,000 yuan on his birthday meal this February. "They had given me gifts. If I hadn't done anything in return, I'd have lost face." Xiao Hao said.

Xiao Hao's experience is quite usual among the young students. A meal can cost a student's pocket money for a month. Many just ask more from parents when they use up their money.

Zhang Wei, an expert(专家) on teenagers' financial study, advised that teenagers should learn to make a budget. A budget is a plan of how money will be spent. It helps you use the money wisely. To make good use of your money, you can also set a limit. Learn to balance(平衡) your wants and needs. When choosing gifts for friends, let them know that you care. Sometimes a handmade gift is much better than an expensive one.

【小题1】 The article mainly talks about teenagers' spending money on_______.

A.books B.clothes

C.social activities D.food

【小题2】 When buying a gift, most students care about ___________

A.how much the gift is B.what their friends would like

C.what they like D.where the gift is from

【小题3】From Xiao Hao's example, we learn the main reason for the problem is that_______.

A.many students are afraid to lose face

B.students like to show off(炫富) before their classmates

C.students have too much pocket money

D.parents don't know how to teach their kids to use money

【小题4】Which of the following ways of using money is NOT talked about?

A.making a plan for using money

B.setting a limit

C.balancing your wants and needs

D.not giving gifts to your friends

On the first day of my senior high school, I met a nice teacher. She looked at me and said, "I am happy to have an international student in my class." I was very excited.

One day I was three minutes late for school. She told me to write my name and the word "late" on a piece of paper. In that way she could know l was late for the first time. At the beginning, I was angry. But later I understood why she did that. She was strict(严格) with every student and she did it because she wanted to teach me an important lesson: time is priceless.

I learn another important lesson during my first exam. After finishing my exam paper, I did not review the answers because it was the end of the exam time. One week later, she returned my exam paper. I found that one of my answers was wrong. A, B and C were the only choices on the paper, but I chose D instead of C. I tried to explain my mistake. "I knew C was the right answer. but I chose D." However, she told me, "I do believe you. but I am not going to forgive(原谅 ) your mistake. This will remind(提醒) you to be more careful before you hand in your papers." I knew she was right.

【小题1】What did the writer think of the teacher?

A.She was humorous. B.She was strict.

C.She was impolite. D.She was generous.

【小题2】 Why did the teacher ask the writer to write his name and a word on a piece of paper?

A.To welcome him to join the class.

B.To remind him to be more careful.

C.To tell him the importance of time.

D.To see how good his writing was.

【小题3】What does the underlined word "review" in Paragraph 3 mean?

A.copy B.write

C.find D.check

【小题4】Why did the writer choose D instead of C?

A. Because he saw others choose D.

B. Because he made a careless mistake.

C. Because he didn't know what C meant.

D. Because he knew D was the right answer.
