When you talk with someone, you’ll need to end your conversation at some point. And there are many reasons why you need to do that. Either you or the other person may need to continue an activity such 1. working or shopping. Or you may have run out of things to say. You just want to keep the conversation short.

But 2. do you end a conversation in a polite way? It may depend on where and how the conversation started. It may also depend on your relationship with the 3. person. If you already know that person, you can just say, “I need to run now.” Or you can say, “I’ll catch you later.” You may also give a reason for ending the conversation. “I really need to go---my piano class starts in ten 4. .”

Perhaps you just meet someone in a social situation, and you have a nice talk. But then you have to go. You can say, “It was nice meeting you. Maybe we can talk happily 5. sometime in the future.”

Another way to end a conversation is to make it easy for the other person to 6. . If you see the other person is already not patient, you can say, “Well, I’ m sure

you have a lot to do today.”

You could use these 7. to end a conversation, and you should notice that others may also use them. 8. they do so, you should know that it’s time for you to stop

and get on with your day.

During the 2016 Rio Olympics, people were surprised to see the round, purple marks on the body of the famous American swimmer Michael Phelps. What happened to him? In fact, he just visited a doctor of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) and

had “cupping”(撥火罐).

Massage(按摩) and acupuncture(針灸) are two other important kinds of TCM. Chinese massage can make you relaxed and fresh. In acupuncture, doctors put long needles(針) into the patients’ heads, faces, arms. It takes away pain, though the look is funny.

TCM is an important part of Chinese culture. The earliest medical classic in China, Huangdi’s Classic on Medicine, came out more than 2,000 years ago. The book is about the relationship between man and nature. In Chinese culture, yin and yang are the two parts of nature. Nature keeps balanced(平衡) if yin and yang work well together. The human body needs such a balance, too. TCM helps to do that. Quite specially, for some health problems, a doctor of TCM will not give you medicine. Instead, he may give you just a food plan and right ways to eat.

For example, it is common to eat on the way to school, at our desk, or in front of the TV. But TCM thinks it’s wrong. Here are the correct ways: Sit down to eat. While eating, turn off the TV and get away from the work desk. Eat seasonal foods. Do not miss any of the three meals. Also, get your body moving often, just as the saying goes, “Running water is never stale.”

Nowadays, traditional Chinese medicine is becoming more and more popular around the world. A government report says that people in 183 countries and areas are now using TCM.

1.In the first paragraph, the writer mentioned Michael Phelps __________.

A. to introduce a doctor of TCM B. to give an example of using cupping

C. to introduce the Rio Olympics D. to give an example of a good swimmer

2.About Huangdi’s Classic on Medicine, which of the following is NOT TRUE?

A. It is the earliest medical classic in China. B. It came out over 2,000 years ago.

C. It is mainly about how to take medicine. D. It is an important book on TCM.

3.The underlined sentence in Paragraph 4 means “__________” in Chinese.

A. 水到渠成 B. 流水不腐 C. 柔情似水 D. 綠水長流

4.If we put the passage into three parts, which of the following is the best?

(1=Para.(自然段) 1 ?2=Para. 2 ?3=Para. 3 „4=Para. 4 …5=Para. 5)

A. 1;234;5

Smog(霧霾) is a big problem in many Chinese cities. But it seems that besides wearing a mask, few of us know what has caused the smog and what to do to beat it. Chai Jing, a former news hostess with China Central Television, discussed the questions in her documentary Under the Dome.

The 103 - minute film was published on major Chinese video - sharing websites on Feb 28. In the film, Chai visits polluted places and talks to officials and scientists. She comes to the conclusion that burning too much coal and oil are the main causes of PM2.5 and smog.

To make things worse, according to Chai, the coal and oil we are burning is of poor quality and don't meet the standards for environmental protection. Therefore they have produced more harmful gas to pollute the air.

To solve the problem, Chai suggests that we should clean our coal and oil or replace them with cleaner energy such as natural gas. In her film, Chai also pointed out that ordinary people can do something to help control smog too. For example, we live a greener life by using more public traffic. Or if we see things that could harm the environment, we can try to stop it. In one scene from the film, Chai sees a dirt mound in a building site exposed in the air, and asks the person in charge to cover it. When she sees a restaurant cooking without any suitable filter facilities, she calls the hotline 12369. The restaurant installed the filter a week later.
