I once had a student who got his finger stuck inside a test tube in science class. It was really quite stuck. I knew something was up when I saw about 12 different shoulders around the room shaking as they heroically tried to hold back their laughter. This young man’s finger continued to get whiter and whiter right before my eyes.
Remaining calm, I suggested he carefully rotate (旋转) the tube. It wouldn’t move a bit. He tried soap and cold water. Still stuck. Meanwhile chaos was breaking out in my class, as my lesson became completely derailed. Finally, I sent this young man to the secretary, who raised six children of her own. With her in charge, I was completely confident all would be OK.
Forgetting about the lesson of the day, I masterfully got the students back in some degree of order by sharing my own story of getting my knee stuck between the rails of a balcony. Same kind of curiosity, I remembered wondering at the time how far I could thrust (塞) my knee between the rails. Inch by inch, I kept pushing and before I knew it, my knee was stuck swelling right before my eyes and in front of lots of strangers at a popular Las Vegas hotel!
Many of the students listening to my story of humiliation (丢脸) shot up their hands eager to tell their own stories of heads, arms, fingers stuck in places they shouldn’t be. The laughter was refreshing while we waited for the finger tube boy to return. We returned to the science lesson on “total internal reflection” carefully now to use the equipment properly.
A few minutes later, the young man came back with a grin ear to ear, test tube unbroken and finger returning to a lovely shade of pink. I just couldn’t get mad at this kid. He’s only twelve after all. I too got my knee unstuck, but not without a tremendous amount of embarrassment. The excuse for me, however, was not youth but sheer stupidity. I was after all 51 years old when this happened.
【1】What do we know about the other students when they saw the boy getting stuck?
A. They were curious about it. B. They thought it was funny.
C. They pretended to be calm. D. They were frightened.
【2】Which is closest in meaning to the underlined word “derailed” in paragraph 2?
A. Out of control. B. In order.
C. Beyond reach. D. In charge.
【3】Why did the author mention her own experience at a hotel?
A. She tried to distract her students from the accident.
B. She hoped to teach her students the lesson of the day.
C. She wanted to inspire her students’ curiosity.
D. She intended to show how she got unstuck from the rails.
【4】What did the author think of the boy?
A. He was to blame for the accident.
B. He was too young to get his finger stuck.
C. He had good reason to make the mistake.
D. He was responsible for his stupid behavior.

More than one billion young people risk damaging their hearing through excessive (过度的) use of smartphones and other audio devices (音频设备), the UN warned Tuesday, proposing new safety standards for safe volume levels.
In order to safeguard hearing, the World Health Organization and International Telecommunications Union issued a voluntary international standard for the manufacture and use of audio devices.
Young people are particularly prone to get risky listening habits. Around half of those between the ages of 12 and 35, or 1.1 billion people, are at risk due to “long exposure to loud sounds, including music they listen to through personal audio devices”, the UN health agency said.
Currently, about five percent of the global population, or some 466 million people, including 34 million children, suffer from disabling hearing loss. WHO considers a volume above 85 decibels (分贝) for eight hours or 100 decibels for 15 minutes as unsafe.
WHO is calling for parental as well as automatic volume controls on audio devices to prevent dangerous use.
While some smartphones and other audio devices already offer some of these features, the UN would like to see a uniform standard used to help protect against disabling hearing loss.
“Think of it like driving on a highway, but without a speedometer (速度计) in your car or a speed limit,” Shelly Chadha of the WHO told reporters in Geneva. “What we’ve proposed is that your smartphones come fitted with a speedometer, with a measurement system which tells you how much sound you’re getting and tells you if you are going over the limit.”
【1】What does the underlined word “prone” in paragraph 3 probably mean?
A.Likely. B.Addicted. C.Willing. D.Expected.
【2】How do paragraphs 3 and 4 develop?
A.By making comparisons. B.By offering examples.
C.By analyzing reasons. D.By giving figures.
【3】Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?
A.Half of 1.1 billion people are getting risky listening habits.
B.About 466 million children are suffering from hearing loss.
C.A volume above 85 decibels for 10 hours or 120 decibels for 15 minutes is unsafe.
D.A uniform standard has been made to help protect against disabling hearing loss.
【4】Why does the author mention “driving on the highway” in the last paragraph?
A.To indicate it is dangerous to drive on the highway.
B.To suggest a speedometer should be fitted in a car.
C.To show how a smartphone works with a measure system.
D.To emphasize that it is necessary to fit a measure system in smartphones.

Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) isn’t supported by most Westerners. However, this is starting to change.
TCM will be included in the new version of the International Classification of Diseases (ICD), which will be published by the World Health Organization in 2019, Nature magazine reported.
This is the first time for TCM to be included in the ICD, which serves as “the international standard for diseases and health conditions,” according to China Daily.
Ryan Abbott at the Center for East-West Medicine at the University of California, Los Angeles, US, said this could benefit TCM.
The inclusion of TCM in the ICD “is a mainstream acceptance that will have significant influence around the world”, Abbott told Nature.
TCM has seen some growth in other countries, with a number of famous people being known to use it. For example, during the 2016 Rio Olympic Games, US swimmer Michael Phelps was seen with circular bruises (青肿) on his body. Such bruises are caused by cupping (拔火罐), a traditional Chinese medicinal practice that has been around for more than 2,000 years.
In 2015, Chinese scientist TuYouyou was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for her discovery of artemisinin (青嵩素), a drug that can cure malaria (疟疾). She said she was inspired by traditional Chinese medicine.
TCM still faces many challenges, such as a lack of clinical evidence as to precisely how it works, according to China Daily. “Not matched to several Western testing standards, TCM’s effectiveness has been difficult to study or provide evidence for,” according to CNN.
Some say that TCM should be combined with modern scientific methods to make it more acceptable to people outside of China.
“Tried and tested over thousands of years, the effectiveness of TCM is clear,” Lu Chuanjian, vice-president of the Guangdong Provincial Hospital of Chinese Medicine, told China Daily.
“Now we need to use modern technology and ways of thinking to explain to the world how TCM works on specific diseases and to prove that it can cure diseases,” Lu added.
【1】What does the underlined word “which” refer to?
A.TCM. B.ICD.
C.World Health Organization. D.Center for East-West Medicine.
【2】By giving the examples of Michael Phelps and TuYouyou, the author means to prove ________.
A.TCM has gained world popularity.
B.TCM is the mainstream treatment around the world.
C.TCM has a long history.
D.TCM is being gradually accepted by the world.
【3】One of TCM’s challenges is that ________.
A.it lacks enough clinical cases to support TCM is effective
B.modern scientific methods are combined into TCM’s study
C.TCM’s effectiveness is hard to match Western testing standards
D.there is still no evidence to explain how precisely TCM works
【4】What can be the best title for the text?
A.TCM Is Gaining New Global Acceptance
B.WHO Will Publish New TCM Standards
C.TCM Still Lacks Clinical Evidence
D.TCM Practice Cures Michael Phelps

It’s possible to be straightforward about climate change with our children and protect their emotional well-being. 【1】. So they don’t have to despair over the future.
Don’t overdo the news
Although adults may want to watch and listen to the news, a little goes a long way for children. There’s a difference between being prepared and being overwhelmed (不知所措), especially for kids. 【2】. For example, when you have anxious kids watching the TV or anxious families, you may see a growth in kids’ anxiety; in other words, when parents watch TV a lot in a sorrowful atmosphere, they’re hurting their children. It’s the responsibility of parents and caregivers to control their kids’ media consumption; they simply do not need to know everything.
【3】
As in all areas of parenting, it’s up to caregivers to assess how much their kid can take. If you know your child is more anxious than the next kid or has a sensitive character, you have to parent differently. It’s not so much about keeping kids away from every bit of information about rising temperatures and extinction, it’s that you handle it differently. 【4】.
Emphasize agency
At home or in school, parents and educators can pair environmental studies with actionable steps such as having kids organize a challenge to increase the number of students bringing reusable bottles to school. They also can help students research how many species have thrived (茁壮成长) under the Endangered Species Act. 【5】. Families can support an environmental organization, plan a park cleanup or host a bake sale to raise money for habitat preservation of a kid’s favorite endangered animal.
A. Teach kids action
B. Know your child
C. Here are some ways to help children be part of the team
D. The news can’t be too much, especially if a child is sensitive
E. You change the words depending on their age and what they can handle
F. Without hope, you’re not going to have action and thus not going to have hope
G. Inviting children to brainstorm ideas for progress helps energize and give them hope
