Once, when the food we ordered at a restaurant arrived, the first thing we wanted to do was to eat right away. (1)   Others want to take at least five photos of their food to share on social media, such as Wechat.

(2)   "Foodtography" has been around for longer than one would expect. Take US photographer Irving Penn (1917﹣2009)for example. In 1947, Vogue magazine published many food photos taken by Penn. Looking at the carefully put salad ingredients or the cakes on stands(货 架), it would be easy to think Penn's 70﹣year﹣old photos were taken just last week.

Besides Penn's efforts, it seems that social media is behind the recent rise of foodtography.(3)   And the star posts just one delicious﹣looking food picture with the place where it was taken. It can bring hundreds of new customers for the restaurant.

So while it's fun to share pictures of delicious dishes with your friends, just remember the most important thing: (4)   

A. Don't forget to eat your meal afterwards.

B. But now, some people just want to eat their meal.

How do you feel when you are fooled by others? No doubt, feel bad. There is nothing worse than falling for a joke and being a fool except one day. Yes, that's April Fool's Day. Nobody will be angry to be an" April Fool".(1)   

The headmaster at my school decided to play an April Fools' joke on the students when I was in high school. On March 31, she announced that our school would hold a "Dress to Impress" day.(2)   

Girls were told to wear formal dresses and smart jackets, while a suit jacket and tie for each boy would be best. The teachers, we were told, would do the same.

On April Fool's Day, many of us students came to school dressed in our best clothes.(3)   In the morning, all of us got together on the playground, waiting for the headmaster. She would speak to the students.(4)   Instead, she wore jeans, running shoes and a T﹣shirt. The teachers also got dressed casually like her.

"April Fools!" she said, with a big smile on her face. "We just wanted to remind you that teachers have a sense of humor, too!"

Surely, all the teachers weren't April Fools.(5)   

A. Our hair was tidy and all our shoes were well cleaned.

A. Each part has a different meaning.

B. So they cannot create as many numbers as we can.

C. That's because China has the longest mobile phone numbers in the world.

D. Also, mobile phone numbers can be recycled.

E. The main reason for using 11 digits is that we have the largest population in the world.

Have you ever counted the number of digits(数字) in your mobile phone number? Your number has 11digits. You may sometimes find it hard to remember your number. (1)   Why is that?

The 11digits can be divided into three parts. (2)   The first three numbers tell you which mobile phone service provider you are using. For example, 135 is for the China Mobile Communication Corporation and 188 is for China Unicom. The fourth to the seventh digits tell you which area the number is recorded in. And the last four digits are random (随机的).

(3)   We once had 10numbers. But as our population grew, there were not enough numbers for us to use. So we began to use 11digits starting from 1999.

Eleven digits can be used to make tens of billions of mobile phone numbers, according to the Xinhua News Agency. That's enough for each person to have seven or eight phone numbers to use in China(4)   Usually, the service provider will reuse a canceled number after three to six months. If you call a number that you haven't contacted (联络) for a long time, you may find that its owner has changed.

Besides China, Britain and Japan also use 11﹣digit mobile phone numbers. But their numbers always start with 0. (5)   Countries like the United States, Australia and India use phone numbers with l0digits. Canada's mobile phone numbers are perhaps the world's shortest: they use seven digits.

May 12th, 2018is the 10th anniversary of Wenchuan Earthquake. Many of us may have remembered what happened on May 12th, 2008. The devastating 7.9magnitude Sichuan earthquake which killed about 90,000people in western China. It has been concerned(担忧) widely about what we can do when we encounter (遭遇) certain accidents. Therefore, how to deal with accidents in our daily life.

Earthquake is the first thing that I am going to talk about. Firstly, you need to rush to open space quickly if you are in a lower floor. Meanwhile, you should avoid trees or wires around you. Then you just need to wait for someone to save you. On the contrary(相反), you need to stay in a corner which seems firm if you are in a higher building.(1)   You should keep your body safe and wait for others to help you.

When it comes to fire, you need to distinguish the root of the fire and find out security exits.(2)   Then you should crawl (爬行) on the floor. Do not use elevators or any electronic equipment.

Another accident is drowning. Every summer, about 5000kids die because of swimming alone in the river or the lake. Experts say that we have the more possibility of drowning if we struggle as best as we can or put our hands up. So what we should do is: " (3)   " The summer holiday is coming, my dear friend, take care of yourself.

In a word, all kinds of accidents will happen in our daily life.(4)    We should believe that the rate of danger can be minimized (机会少) and we can not only get chance to save ourselves but also help more others if we learn about how to deal with them in the first place.

A. The most necessary thing is to keep calm and find the exact way.

B. Do not be a jumper!

C. To take a deep breath, lie on the water and wait for others to save us.

Have you ever tried to hide your emotions (情感)from someone during a conversation? (1)   

Scientists from the Ohio State University have found that people are able to tell other people's emotions according to changes in the color of their faces.

Scientists studied pictures of people's facial expressions. (2)   For example, happiness makes our faces red around the cheeks and a little blue around the chin. Disgust(厌恶)creates not only a blue﹣yellow color around the lips, but also a red﹣ green color around the nose and forehead.

"We believe these color patterns are the result of small changes in blood flow triggered(触发) by the central nervous(神经) system." Lead researcher Alex Martinez said.

(3)   Does the color alone or also facial expressions help people tell other's emotions?

To figure this out, scientists added color patterns to pictures of faces that showed no facial expressions. (4)   They were able to tell the emotions 75 percent of the time without any difficulty.

(5)   For example, when two people are heatedly arguing over something, we say they are red in the face. When a person is very angry, we'd say he or she is blue in the face.

A. But this raises a question.

B. It is shown that human emotions are influenced by colors on the face.

C. They found that every facial expression is connected to a certain color.

D. It's not always easy, because the color on your face may tell the truth.

E. Then, volunteers were asked to tell what emotions the faces were showing.

F. This is why there are some Chinese sayings that connect emotions to the color of one's face.

In Britain,Boxing Day is usually celebrated on December 26th(61)   This means it's not a working day in the whole of Britain.When Boxing Day falls on a Saturday or Sunday,the following Monday is the public holiday.

(62)   One of the thoughts is that during the Middle Ages,when great sailing ships were setting off to discover new land,a Christmas Box was placed by a priest(神父) on each ship.Those sailors who wanted a safe return would drop money into the box.(63)   

One more thought is about the"Alms Box"placed in every church on Christmas Day.Worshippers (做礼拜的人)put gifts for the poor into it.These boxes were always opened the day after Christmas.(64)   Today,many businesses,organizations and families try to keep the traditional spirit of Boxing Day alive by giving away money to Food Banks,providing gifts for the poor,or helping families in need.
