The history of tea begins in Asia．In China， Korea and Japan，tea is still very important today．In Japan， it can take many hours to prepare and drink tea with your guests．In Malaysia，a popular drink at breakfast is teh tarik（'pulled tea'）．Malaysians say it is good for you and tastes good with canai bread．

How did people tell the time before clocks were invented？
At first， the ancient people looked up at the sun and could tell it was the middle of the day when the sun was directly overhead in the sky． They also knew when it was morning or evening．
Later， the Egyptians used sticks． These sticks measured （测量） time during the day．The sun shone on the tall stick and the stick made a shadow（阴影）． As the sun moved across the sky， the position（位置）of the shadow changed． This would let people tell what time it was．
Over time， the Chinese first used sundials instead of shadow sticks． The sundial has a type of shadow stick on it， As the sun shines on it， a shadow appears on the numbers．Each number stands for an hour of the day． But sundials don't work at night or on a cloudy day! There are no shadows unless the sun is out．
Water clocks used water to measure time at night． Water dripped（滴落）slowly from one bowl into another． The level of the water in the bowls showed the time．
People also used sand﹣glasses． You may have seen one． Some games still use sand﹣glasses． The sand falls from the top of the sand﹣glasses to the bottom． It measures short amounts of the time． The more sand falls， the more time has passed． When the sand has finished falling， you have to tum the sand﹣glasses over．

What are the cultural differences between China and the West？You might be able to find the answer in Cao Siyu's comics （漫画）.
Cao，32，was born in Beijing，but left home at 20 and has studied and lived in the US，the UK，and France for 12 years.Having seen so many cultures，Cao wanted to use her drawing sills to show the differences she has experienced.So she created the cartoon series Tiny Eyes Comics.
"My experience shows that although travel is much easier and faster today，the distance （距离） between cultures hasn't shortened，" Cao said.She hopes to build bridges and break down misunderstandingsbetween different cultures.One of her cartoons shows water forms in different countries.Three glasses of water are shown.The glass of water from the US has ice；the one from France is full of sparkling water （气泡水）；the one from China is steaming （冒热气的）.
Cao also uses her cartoons to show different ways of thinking and social customs.During the COVID﹣19 pandemic，she used her comics to explain why Chinese people prefer to wear masks while western people don't."Her simple pictures have played a big part in reflecting Chinese culture，" Italian magazine Grazia reported.
Many foreign readers say that Cao's comics help them understand China，while Chinese living abroad have felt that they are seen and understood.

②Each country or culture raises some animals for food.In the United States，people mainly eat meat from cows，chickens and pigs.In other countries，people might raise sheep or buffalo for meat.These differences come in part from weather and other environmental conditions.People around the world eat all kinds of fish and shellfish from oceans and rivers.In some countries，people don't always choose some animal groups，such as dogs，for food while in other countries such animals may become people's favorite food.
③In West Africa，animals provide humans with more than food.They have been helping people do daily work for thousands of years.Horses，oxen，and other work animals pull heavy things.Elephants；camels；and other animals carry people and things from place to place.Carrier pigeons （信鸽）have been used to send messages.
④People also receive health benefits'（利益）from animals.For example，dogs and cats can help calm people down.This is helpful for people fighting illnesses.Animals can also reduce stress，helping people to draw their attention to learning new information，such as reading.When people are walking their dogs or horses，it encourages exercise.

According to UNESCO，a large number of children in villages in some African countries like Kenya and Tanzania do not go to school.They have to work to make money for their family.And more than half of people in these countries live without electricity.
A company is now working to solve both of these problems.It has created a special solar（太阳的）power station，which is in the shape of a cow，called"Solar Cow".The company encourages parents in those poor villages to send their children to school by setting up Solar Cows at schools.
Just as its name suggests，the Solar Cow can charge batteries（给电池充电）called"Solar Milks".The Solar Milks provide electricity for the families.
The batteries can only be charged using the Solar Cow，so children have to go to school to get the electricity.Everyday，children put their batteries into the bottom of their school's Solar Cow.
They go to class while the batteries are being charged.At the end of the day，they take the charged batteries home.
Each fully﹣charged Solar Milk battery can charge a mobile phone three or four times，or a radio once or twice.The battery is also a flashlight，and it can provide ten hours of light."My father used to travel two to three hours to the charging shop to charge his phone，and it cost a lot，" a boy said. "But now，he can use the battery I bring from school to charge his phone at home."
Since 2018，this company has set up two Solar Cows in Kenya and one in Tanzania.The company also started to raise money for more Solar Cows to help the poor children in Africa.

The Chinese kite is a symbol of the Chinese handicraft （手工艺品）． Flying a kite is a very popular activity in China． In spring， large numbers of people gather in the squares or parks and fly beautiful kites there．
A philosopher （哲学家） called Mozi was said to be the inventor of the Chinese kite． His invention had the bird's name of "Yuan"， a kind of bird of the hawk （鹰） family with a long tail． He made the kite out of wood． Later， his student Lu Ban improved it and made the kite out of bam boo．
With the development of papermaking， paper was introduced into the kite﹣ making． The kite got the name "Zhi Yuan"， as "Zhi" in Chinese means paper． And during the Five Dynasties period， people tied the bamboo whistle （哨子） to the kite． When the kite was flying， the airflow （气流）
could make the whistle sound like Guzheng playing． So the kite carried the name "Fengzheng"．
From then on， making and playing the kite became very popular in Weifang， Shandong Province． Every year in spring， when the weather became warm， almost every family went out to fly the kite and have a picnic on sunny and windy days． It was an exciting folk activity and a good time to display various beautiful kites． At the same time， they also enjoyed the warm weather and fresh air． The tradition has been well kept until today and has become the world﹣ famous Weifang International Kite Festival， which is held from 20th to 25th in April every year．

As usual， Amber was hurrying to catch the yellow schoolbus，Luckily the trafic lights turned green as she was to cross the road， so she made it．When the bus passed the golden arches（拱形门） of MeDonald′s， they reminded her of a hamburger．She hadn′t had breakfast that morning because the fruit salad on the blue dish didn′t look delicious at all．However， Amber remembered that she was still on a diet．So now she was really in a black mood．
You may have noticed that several colors were used in the above story so as to help describe Amber's morning．In fact， colors influence your life more than you can ever imagine．Take language for example：You may describe a sick person as being"a bit green"．To describe a depressed（沮丧的） person， you say that the person is"feeling blue"．In short， colors do add interest to daily conversations．
Besides， colors can be used in many parts of your daily life．Have you ever thought about why many school buses and taxis are painted yellow， and stop signs red？Since yellow is the most eye﹣catching color，it can catch people's attention， especially in heavy traffic．As for red，it is the color which usually shows warning； as a result， some traffic signs use this color．For the same reason，hot﹣water taps are usually marked red．
The colors of a dining environment possibly decide how much you eat．Most fast﹣food restaurants are often decorated in bright colors such as red， yellow， orange， and white for the purpose of increasing people′s appetites（胃口）．This is because bright colors are natural colors found in many foods，and，therefore，able lo raise people's spirits．Blue， in comparison with bright colors， is sad to lower people′s appetites because few foods are blue in nature．For those who are on a diet， blue dishes and bowls might help!
"Morning， Amber!What happened？You look a bit green， "said Violet， Amber′s best friend，
"Nothing…just feeling…blue， "said Amber．
"Hey! Come to my place tonight．Do you know what I just bought？A wii! It′s red﹣hot．"
Amber was tickled pink to have the chance to play wth the wii and said， "Sounds great!"
（1）According to the passage， if you are on a diet， might help．
A．putting your food in a blue dish or bowl

The population of the world continues to increase， but in some areas the population is falling．This is true in Europe and especially in Eastern Europe． In Russia， the population is going down by about 100 people EVERY HOUR! Russia's population could fall by ONE THIRD by the year 2050! And in Poland （波兰）the population is also going down because people are leaving to work in other countries．
One of the main reasons is a change of lifestyle． All over Europe people， especially educated women， have a different attitude （态度）to children than their parents．"I have one child and she is enough for me， "said Galina Tereschkova， a doctor from Moscow． "My husband and I both work full﹣time． We can't imagine having more than one child． "Many women decide to have children later in life or not to have children at all． "I don't want to have any children until I have worked for at least 10 years， "said 19﹣year﹣old student Hana Markova from Prague． Her opinion is typical of 18﹣24 year old women everywhere in Europe．
In Poland， the population is going down for a different reason． A lot of people，usually aged between 20 and 30， are leaving the country to work abroad． Poland joined the European Union in 2005 and since then more than half a million people have moved to Britain， Germany， Spain and Italy． Even so， the population of those four countries and many other countries in West Europe is also going down．
Many governments are now encouraging people to have larger families． In France，women now receive nearly 1，000 a month for a year if they have a third child．Austrian women receive 700 a month for three years when they have their first child．
（1）Where in the world is the population getting smaller？
（2）How many children does Galina Tereschkova want to have？
（3）What does Hana Markova want to do before she has children？
（4）Why is the population in Poland going down？
（5）How does the French government encourage people to have larger families now？
Did you take part in a camp this summer？ There are so many summer camps and not all of them are the same To choose which camp is best for you， first you must do a bit of research．
Maybe you've never thought about it before， but every great summer camp has the same main goals﹣opportunity， challenge and growth．
Opportunity means you are given a chance to do something special． It also makes you special because other kids don't have the same opportunity． For example， if you interested in writing， then you can choose to join a journalism（新闻）camp． You may have the opportunity of meeting famous journalists there．
Challenge means you are given a task． You must finish the task and succeed in dealing with the challenge． Then you will have a sense of achievement． For example， you could take a lifeguard course at some summer camps． If you pass the exam， then you will receive a certificate（证书） to become a real lifeguard．
This also leads to the third and most important goal of every great summer camp﹣personal growth． It doesn't mean growing taller and stronger or more beautiful．It means seeing yourself improve， learning something new and doing something you didn't know or believe you could do before． It also means becoming more confident in yourself．
So in the future when choosing your next summer camp， remember to ask yourself：Is it a special opportunity？ Is it a challenge？ Will i grow？
But what about friendship， fun and joy？ These will all happen naturally when you have the right goals at summer camps!
（1）Which is the writer's opinion？
A．Different camps have different goals．
B．There are too many summer camps today．
C．All great summer camps have the same main goals．

A．take opportunities
B．grow more beautiful

读下面关于大象的文章，然后回答文章后的问题．
Hello．We are students from Thailand，and we want to save the elephants．The elephant is one of Thailand's symbols．Our first flag had a white elephant on it．This is a symbol of good luck．
Elephants are smart animals． They can play soccer or music．They can also draw very well．People say that "an elephant never forgets"．Elephants can walk for a long time and never get lost．They can also remember places with food and water．This helps them to live．
But elephants are in great danger．People cut down many trees so elephants are losing their homes．People also kill elephants for their ivory．Today there are only about 3，000 elephants（over 100，000 before），We must save the trees and not buy things made of ivory． Remember that March 13th is Thai Elephant Day．
