Hello, I'm Zheng Yishi from Shanghai. I'm 15 years old. I study at Walsh Jesuit High School in Cleveland, Ohio, US. I Like reading, traveling and listening to music. I'm glad to share my experience with you.
Have you ever wondered what PE classes are like in other countries? In China, PE tests are required to graduate from both middle school and high school. To get good grades on the PE tests, Chinese students will need to practice running as well as doing sit-ups and pull-ups. However, this is not the way that PE classes work in US high schools.
In my high school, we are required to take two terms of PE to graduate. We play real sports during PE classes, such as basketball and volleyball. There are also some other typical American sports that we often play, such as kickball and dodgeball(躲避球).
I didn't know the rules of kickball and dodgeball when I first came to the US. The teacher allowed me to sit on the sidelines and watch how other students played it in order to let me find out the rules.
We also learn some useful life skills in PE. Last year, I learned how to do CPR(心肺复苏), which is a life-saving skill. We were also taught how to provide first aid to someone who is choking(窒息).These skills are a large part of the final grade for the PE class in my high school. Self-defense(自卫)is taught in PE class as well. This includes some tae kwon do(跆拳道)and karate(空手道) skills, as well as Chinese kung fu. It is practical. I prefer PE classes in the US to the ones in China. I think they are more fun and useful. What do you think?
1．The writer learned the rules of kickball and dodgeball through ·
A．a teacher's instruction B．watching others play
C．playing the sport herself D．watching online videos
2．Which of these things did the writer NOT learn about in PE classes at Welsh Jesuit High School?
A．How to play sports. B．Life–saving skills.
C．Self-defense skills. D．How to treat burns.
3．The story is written to .
A．introduce the writer's favorite sports
B．explain what US PE classes are like
C．show why US students don't like PE classes
D．suggest that China should change its PE classes

15Most of us probably live without vegetables, but a world without chocolate? Now that would be hard! According to chocolate makers it could happen if we don’t act soon.
There are two main causes of the chocolate shortage --- chocolate’s growing popularity and less production of cocoa, the plant from which chocolate is made. With more and more people in India and China loving chocolate, not much can be done about the first cause.
Therefore, the only thing we can do is to increase cocoa production. However, new plant diseases and little rain in Ivory Coast and Ghana, the world’s largest producers, have reduced cocoa production by 40 percent in the past 10 years. What’s worse, many cocoa farmers in Africa and other cocoa-producing countries like Indonesia and Venezuela are changing to easier-to-grow crops such as corn or rubber. This way, the farmers can make more money.
To prevent more farmers from changing, researchers at the newly opened International Cocoa Control Centre, in the UK, are trying to create new cocoa plants that are stronger and faster growing. But first they must make sure the new plants are safe to grow. This takes a long time.
First, each new plant is stored at the Control Centre for six months to make sure it is healthy. It is then planted in the Centre’s fields, studied and tested for another two years. Only after scientists are certain that they’re disease-free, will the plants be sent to farmers in West Africa or wherever else they are needed.
To create new stronger types of cocoa, scientists at the Centre are combining the best parts from different cocoa plants. Though the world is facing a serious chocolate shortage, there is now hope!
1．The first paragraph tells us that______.
A．chocolate is healthier than vegetables
B．the world could soon be without chocolate
C．people love vegetables more than chocolate
D．it’s not necessary to eat so much chocolate
2．In which countries has chocolate become more popular in recent years?
A．Venezuela and Indonesia. B．Ivory Coast and Ghana.
C．Indonesia and China. D．China and India.
3．Cocoa farmers are choosing to grow rubber and corn because these crops______.
A．can make them more money
B．need less rain to grow
C．can be planted more times each year
D．are not damaged by plant diseases
4．How long does it take scientists at the Centre to make sure a cocoa plant is safe to grow?
A．6 months. B．12 months. C．24 months. D．30 months.
5．What is one of the purposes of the Cocoa Control Centre?
A．To introduce cocoa production to more countries.
B．To provide more chocolate for British people.
C．To produce stronger types of cocoa plants.
D．To make sure that cocoa is healthy to eat.

16、Everyone has traits ( 4+性 ) that make us who we are. We have physical. traits, like red hair, long legs and funny-looking toes. We also have character traits including humor, warmth, creativity and so on.
Certain physical traits are fully inherited (遗传 ), such as blue eyes and knobby knees. About 25,000 t0 35,000 genes (基因 ) are in a single cell in the human body. These genes carry the traits that are passed down genetically from parents to their children.
Many traits exist between inheritance and development - the interaction with environment.One example is body shape. It tends to be passed down from parents. But once diet becomes a factor, environment begins to play an important role in how the body develops. Body shape is a trait that is a mixture ofinheritance from parents and influence of environment.
So lots of our most important traits have been learned, rather than inherited. For example, if you're really great at video games, it's not because your parents passed down the skills in genes. It's because you have practiced a lot of video games and developed those skills yourself. If you have kids who turn out to be great at video games, it is because they put in the hours, learned the skills, and memorized
the moves that are necessary to play the video games well.
Of course, some of us have brains that are more advantageous to video game playing. Say you were born with a large and powerful part of the brain that controls your hand-eye coordination (协调能力 ).That's inherited. What you do with it, how you choose to develop that advantage, is up to you.
You can pierce your nose or get a tattoo - it doesn't matter how much you change your body during the lifetime. None of those things will turn into genetic material to be passed down to the next generation. However, if your children grow up in an enwronment with role models who are pierced and covered in tattoos, they are more likely to get piercings and tattoos!
1．is a physical trait that is fully inherited
A．The eye color B．The special diet
C．The body shape D．The pierced nose
2．According to the passage, the writer believes that
A．character traits can hardly change during the lifetime
B．the skills of video game playing are passed down to kids
C．a kid's hand-eye coordination isn't related to inheritance
D．environment plays an important role in traits development
3．Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?
A．Why are Traits Important? B．How does Inheritance Influence Traits?
C．Where do Traits Come from? D．What are Physical and Character Traits?

17、
When I go to a new place, the first thing I like to do is walking around the streets, to explore and get lost in the city. When I first arrived in Santiago, Chile, and took a walk around the city center, one of the first things I noticed was how many stray dogs there were. The phrase “street dog” or “stray dog” is used to describe a dog with no home, who lives on the streets.
On every corner there was a sleeping dog. At every traffic light there was a dog waiting to cross. By every shop there was a dog waiting for food. At first I was nervous as I thought they might be aggressive or unfriendly. However, I have been here for more than a year now and every stray dog I have seen has been passive (顺从的), quiet and friendly.
The dogs are accepted and welcomed here in Chile. I have never seen a street dog being mistreated. In fact, they are often given food and water by the public. Some people even make jackets for the dogs or put out beds or kennels for them to sleep in.

The dogs do not have an easy life: they are often hungry, cold or injured. The government does not provide much care for these dogs.
Some people believe that the situation is getting out of control and that it is unacceptable to have so many dogs on the streets. The dogs can sometimes cause problems such as car accidents if they run into the road. There are around 2.5 million stray dogs in Chile and the dog population is growing faster than the human population. Many Chileans think that all the stray dogs should be sterilized (绝育的) so that they cannot breed (繁殖). Others think that the stray dog population should be culled (i.e. reducing the population by killing them).
The future of street dogs is uncertain but for now it looks like they are here to stay, with their population increasing year by year.
1．What did the writer find when she was in Chile?
A．Street dogs were unfriendly to
