Not only children but also men and women are collectors. In some countries, there are even lessons on stamp-collecting in school. People are becoming more and more interested in stamps.

Money and success alone do not bring lasting happiness. Aristotle, a Greek thinker, said, “Happiness depends on be happier.The first secret(秘密)of happiness is to enjoy the simple things in life. Too often, we spend so much time thinking about the future — for example, getting into college or getting a good job — that we fail to enjoy the present. You should enjoy life’s simple pleasures, such as reading a good book, listening to your favorite music, or spending time with close friends. People who have several close friends often live happier and healthier lives.Another secret to living a happy life is to be active, and have hobbies where you forget your problems and time. Many people experience dancing, or playing a sport, such as swimming. You can forget about your problems, and only think about the activity.Finally, many people find happiness in helping others. Studies show that people feel good when they spend their time helping others. If you want to feel happier, do good things for someone. You can help a friend with his or her studies, go shopping to buy food for an elderly person, or simply help out around the house by washing the dishes.( )1.

When you are in trouble at school, your teachers will help you; when you do something wrong, people around you feel unhappy; when you succeed in something, your friends will say congratulations(祝贺)to you. All these are your happiness. If you notice a bit of them, you can see that happiness is always around you.Happiness is not the same as money. It is a feeling of your heart.

ADumplings are the traditional food for the Spring Festival in China.Almost everyone ea ts them that day.Do you know why they are so popular?In the old days,people thought eating dumplings could make their wishes come true.They usually made dumplings in the shape of Chinese gold ingots(金锭),because they hoped for a rich life in the coming year.Dumplings with different foods in them had different meanings.For example,sugar dumplings would make people's life happy and sweet in the future.Peanut(花生)dumplings would bring people a long and healthy life.Anyway people ate dumplings with their best wishes.On Spring Festival Eve,every family makes dumplings ready early.When the midnight comes,the whole family will sit together and eat the dumplings.The midnight is also called “交子(jiao zi)”.It means that the new year comes at this time.And it sounds the same as the Chinese word for dumplings:饺子.So eating the dumplings is also a way to welcome the new year.( )1.What did the dumplings look like in the old times?( )2.What did people eat sugar dumplings for?A.To live a long life.

Here is some advice on healthy eating.Eat with others. It can help you to see others' healthy eating habits. If you usually eat with your parents, you will find that the food you eat is more delicious.Listen to your body. Ask yourself if you are really hungry. Have a glass of water to see if you are thirsty--sometimes you are just thirsty, and you need no food. Stop eating before you feel full.Eat breakfast. Breakfast is the most important meal of the day. Because you don't eat for the past ten hours, your body needs food to get you going. You will be smarter after eating breakfastEat healthy snacks like fruits, yogurt or cheese. We all need snacks sometimes. In fact, it's a good idea to eat two healthy snacks between your three meals. This doesn't mean that you can eat a bag of chips instead of a meal.Don't eat dinner late. In our busy life, we always put off eating dinner until the last minute. Try to eat dinner at least 3 hours before you go to bed.

Usually it takes a long time, perhaps half a day, for passengers to stay in the plan. So airlines(航空公司)offer passengers food. But it is common that they feel bad about food taste. Do you agree?To solve this problem, airlines try hard to improve their food. They would like to do so because they don’t want to lose customers.However, according to scientific research, part of the reason why plane food tastes bad is that at high altitude(海拔)we can not taste things as well as we do on the ground. Also scientists have found that our noses become very dry even before a plane takes off. As the plane moves up, the change in air pressure(气压)reduces one third of the sensibility(感觉)of our taste buds. So our taste buds become senseless. The sad face, however, is that our noses don’t know it.All of these help explain why food on the plane tastes so bad. They also help explain why airlines choose to offer passengers salty and spicy(辛辣的)food. Without doing so, the food would be tasteless.Now there are many researches on this. According to one of them, some volunteers are asked to lie with their feet higher than their heads for weeks. And scientists write down their feelings about food taste.Though scientists try their best, it is not as easy as they thought. Because they can’t deal with the special environment successfully, such as the change in air pressure, making food taste good is still hard for them.( )16.In Paragraph 2, “this problem” means ______.A.passengers stay long in the plane B.food on the plane tastes bad C.passengers have no food to eat D.food on the plane is expensive ( )17.What do airlines do to solve this problem?A.Get more customers. B.Offer more food.C.Improve their food. D.Reduce the ticket price.( )18.As the plane moves up, the change in air pressure reduces of the sensibility of our taste buds.A.half B.one third C.one fourth D.one fifth ( )19.Why do scientists feel it hard to made food on the plane taste good?A.The volunteers don’t know about food taste.B.The volunteers don’t understand them.C.They can’t find enough volunteers.D.They can’t deal with the special environment successfully.( )20.What is the best title of the passage?A.Taste of Airplane Food B.Airplane TravelC.Scientific Research on Noses D.The Change in Air PressureEEvery country has its own way of cooking. American people have their own way of cooking, don't they? Most people in the United States like fast food, but if you think that American people don't like cooking, you are wrong. It's true that most Americans eat fast food for their breakfast and lunch, but they also think cooking is interesting. Parents see the importance of teaching their children how to cook, and most Americans say that home-cooked meals are the best.Americans have their own way of cooking. For example, baking is the most popular way of cooking in America. Most American families have ovens. American cooks pay attention to (注意) the balance of food.
