If you’re going to start a toy collection, here is some advice:Make sure you know about the value (价值) of your toys, or the toys you’re buying. Get to know the shopkeeper, look through Internet websites, and read books. The more you know about your hobby, the better!Do you love trains, or dolls? While it’s great to have all kinds of toys, it can be fun to study the kinds of toys that you’re most interested in.Always remember: condition, year, and price, the 3 most important things to buy a toy. If the toy is quite old, in great shape, and at a good price then you’ve hit the jackpot (中了头彩)!Toy collecting is all about having fun! Don’t only pay attention to the number and don’t spend all your money on them! Be fair about your toys, and most of all—have fun while collecting your toys.11．What does the underlined word “it”refer to (指代)?A．The hobby of collecting toys. B．Standing still in front of fun toys.

Being sad can happen pretty often. More than half of teenagers go through a period of sadness at least once a month. When you’re sad, it feels like it will last forever. Theworld seems dark and unfriendly. You might feel like you have nothing to look forward to. Many times, you cry, and it’s hard to stop. However, your feeling of sadness usually doesn't last very long —a few hours, or maybe a day or two.When sadness starts to go away, it feels like a big stone is being lifted from your body. If sad feelings go on for too long, it’s called depression. Children who have depression may not know it. Often, it’s a parent or teacher who notices children’s changes.When depression happens, it’s very important for children to receive treatment. When they do, they can get better quickly. Sometimes treatment includes talking to someone who knows all about depression. Sometimes it means taking medicine. Sometimes both of these things are used. If you think you have depression, or you just have sadness that simply will not go away, it is important to talk to an adult about it first. This person can help you find the right kind of treatment. Many cities also have mental health hotlines that are listed in the phone book. There is always somebody who can help.16．Which question is answered in Paragraph 1?A．What makes kids sad? B．When is sadness a problem?C．What does sadness feel like? D．Why is sadness good sometimes?17．If we have depression, who probably first notices that we have been different?A．We ourselves.

B．Travel. C．Health.

A person had to go to the store and buya cook book, or get recipes from friends. Now the Internet has changed all that. If you want to find a recipe for some dishes, just go online. It couldn’t be simpler.Cooking blogs are a great source of information because they are free and there are so many of them. They are also nice because they give all different kinds of ideas. The problem with blogs is that because we don’t know who is writing them, we need to use them carefully. When you are looking at a new blog, you don’t know if the writer knows what he or she is talking about. Today, we’d like to introduce(介绍) two popular cooking blogs. The first is called Smitten Kitchen. This website is run by a family living in New York City. It focuses on food that doesn’t need many ingredients. If you want to make food that is simple but wonderful, then this is the site for you. It shows thousands of recipes, divided into categories. You will be surprised at how many they are. Wednesday Chef is another great cooking blog. It is run by a writer who lives in Berlin. This blog also offers many recipes, together with introductions for great restaurants in Berlin and suggestions(建议) for people who want to start their own blogs. Wednesday Chef has great pictures of the food, as well as interesting pictures of Berlin. The blog got its name because in the past, newspapers published(出版) their food articles on Wednesdays.There are a lot of cooking blogs on the Internet, and most of them are pretty good. Go online and read them.
