A long time ago, my grandparents moved into a new house with 4 daughters. Because work was hard to find, Grandpa did whatever jobs he could. He and Grandma dug a garden to grow some food.
The house had a big front yard with tall trees. Grandparents planted vegetables on one side of the yard and flowers on the other side.
Everybody worked to keep the garden growing. Later, the family ate food from the garden and enjoyed the beautiful flowers.
The family grew up, and the grandchildren came. Grandparents still planted their garden. Everyone still enjoyed the food from the garden.
Years later, it became harder for grandparents to keep the garden. So they made it a little smaller. There was still much to eat from the garden and lovely flowers to enjoy.
However, at 89, Grandpa couldn't move and then died. So the next spring, Grandma planted only a small garden.
One sunny day in the early summer, Grandma saw a big group of bees flying between two tall trees. Slowly the bees entered a hole up in one of the trees. Soon after, all bees disappeared into their new home.
That summer, Grandma got a big harvest(收获).
One day, Grandma's brother Frank visited her. Grandma told him the story about the group of bees. Frank told her that bees pollinated vegetables and flowers and helped them grow. Just then Grandma understood the reason for her great harvest.
From that time on, Grandma always believed that since Grandpa couldn't be there to help her that summer, he had sent the bees to take his place and make Grandma's little garden grow and grow. Thanks to Grandpa's bees, the family could still have much food to eat and lovely flowers to enjoy every year. The help of the bees continued, just as Grandpa's love.
26. What did grandparents grow in the front yard?
A. Only vegetables. B. Only flowers. C. Vegetables and flowers.
27. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?

An American friend has invited you to visit his family. You’ve never been to an American’s home before, what should you do? The answer is: when you’re the guest, you should just make yourself at home. That’s American hospitality(好客).
American hospitality begins at home — especially about food. Most Americans agree that good home cooking beats restaurant food. When you are invited for a meal, you might ask, “Can I bring anything?” The host will answer, “No, just yourself.” For most informal(非正式的) dinners, you can wear any comfortable clothes you like. Arrive on time, or call to tell your hosts if you can’t. During the dinner talk, guests will often praise the hostess (女主人) for the wonderful meal. Of course, the biggest praise is to eat lots of food!
When you’ve had enough, you might offer to clean the table or wash the dishes. But since you’re the guest, your hosts may not let you. Instead, they may invite everyone to move to the living room for dessert with tea or coffee. There the hosts and the guests may continue to have a talk. After about an hour’s talk, it’s time for you to leave.
If you come to an American’s home, you’d better let the hosts know ahead of time unless you’re very close friends, especially when you want to stay for a few days. Here’s a good rule for guests: Short stays are best. Even relatives, for example, their aunts, uncles or cousins, don’t usually stay for several weeks every time. While you’re staying with an American family, try to keep your living area clean and tidy. Your host family will thank you for your consideration. And they may even invite you back!
Most Americans consider themselves hospitable people, and they are proud of making guests happy.
31. What should we do when we are guests at an American’s home?
A. Bring a lot of gifts. B. Make ourselves at home. C. Stay for several weeks every time.
32. In America, when you are invited for a meal, you’d better leave the host family _____.
A. just after the meal
B. about an hour after the meal
C. about two or three hours after the meal
33. Which of the following is NOT true?
A. Most Americans think good home food is better than restaurant food.
B. In America, you can wear comfortable clothes for most informal dinners.
C. In America, you are free to come as guests without telling the hosts first.
34. The underlined word “consideration” in the fourth paragraph(段) means “_____” in Chinese.
A. 体贴 B. 大方 C. 聪明
35. What can be the best title of the passage?
A. American Food B. American Family C. American Hospitality

We touch our faces all the time, and it had never seemed to be a big problem—until COVID-19 arrived. Touching our faces—the “T-zone” of our eyes, nose and mouth—can mean giving ourselves this virus.
This is why some organizations have suggested that we should avoid touching our faces. William Sawyer, from Henry the Hand, told The Washington Post, “Just stop this simple behavior, and that would be better than any vaccine （疫苗） ever created.”
However, stopping this “simple” behavior might be harder than you think because we are used to it.
Some face-touching is an automatic reaction—like when there is an itch(痒) on your nose, you'll touch it again and again without thinking. A 2014 study found that touching your face also helps you to have less stress. For example, it's possible for you to do it when you feel embarrassed. According to Dacher Keltner, a psychologist at the University of California Berkeley, US, this action may also have a social use: When you are talking to someone, for example, touching your face means you want to talk about another thing.
Besides, it's very hard to change this face-touching “because you don't even know you're doing it”, said Sawyer.
But you're not alone. In a 2015 study, it was found that a group of medical students touched their faces about 23 times an hour-with 44 percent of the touches in the “T-zones”. That was very surprising because medical students should know better.
Since it's so hard to shake the habit, maybe the easiest way is to wash our hands more often. This way, we can be sure that our hands are safe from COVID-19.
36. The “T-zone” is formed from _____.
A. our eyes B. our nose and mouth C. our eyes, nose and mouth
37. In the second paragraph, Sawyer thinks that _____.
A. face-touching is simple and helpful
B. we should avoid touching our faces
C. face-touching may be better than vaccine
38. Dacher Keltner believes that _____.
A. face-touching may increase stress
B. face-touching may have a social use
C. face-touching may cause an itch on your face
39. The last paragraph tells us to _____.
A. wash our hands more often
B. stop the habit of touching our faces
C. ask medical students not to touch their faces
40. What is the main idea of the passage?
A. Face-touching may give us COVID-19.
B. Face-touching may be very useful for us.
C. Stopping face-touching might be harder than we think.
