A Chinese song could be heard in a classroom in Sanaa, the capital of Yemen(也門), where around 20 Chinese-learning schoolchildren were singing. "I love to learn the Chinese language because it is very nice, important and I want to travel to China to complete my studies there," Karim al-Areqi, a student of the private Languages Model School in Sanaa, told Xinhua.

Teacher Mohammed Al-Ansi, who learnt the language in China and received a university degree, stressed(強調(diào)) the importance of learning the Chinese language. "It is the language of the future and it is necessary for all people to get advantages from the great development in China," he said.

Like many other private elementary and secondary schools in Yemen, the Chinese language is a basic part of the Languages Model School's courses, where the students study Chinese as actively as math and science subjects. "In teaching the Chinese language, I succeeded in educating students in a simple way that fits everyone," Al-Ansi said proudly, stressing that teaching Chinese has changed his life without doubt.

Al-Ansi expects that Yemen and China will work together to set up centers and schools for teaching the Chinese language in Yemen so that many young Yemenis can learn. "I hope that a branch of the Confucius (孔子學院), could be built in Yemen to teach the language and spread the Chinese culture to many students and researchers who are interested in learning the Chinese culture and language," he said. Many people in Yemen see that learning a foreign language may open a way of hope to a new life, such as getting more money and paving（鋪平）the way to a bright future in the country that has experienced war for almost five years.

下面短文有四處需要添加首句。并完成第五小題。

How to Get Children to Stop Touching Their Faces

Kids seem like they're always touching everything in their environment, from tables and chairs to doors and stairs. Since those surfaces may hold germs(細菌), you can help your child avoid illness by encouraging them not to touch their face throughout the day.

1. Once your child is about 3 years old, you can begin having conversations with them and avoiding germs, including the importance of washing their hands and how touching their face can spread germs to their nose and mouth. While just knowing this information probably won't help them break the habit, it can help set the groundwork.

2. If you don't want to criticize(批評)your child when they forget, it is important to remind them when you see them with their hands around their face or mouth. Sometimes, just knowing that they're doing it will be enough to help them stop doing it.

3. It can be hard to remember sometimes, but look for chances to let your child know when they're doing a good job of keeping their hands away from their face. Encouraging words can be a really powerful motivation(動機)for kids to keep trying when they're learning something new.

4. Children often touch their faces or mouths without thinking about it. Many times, it's just because they're bored and they're looking for a way to excite themselves. If you think that might be the case, try giving your child a toy they can hold onto.

The passage is most probably chosen from the part of 5.in a newspaper.

A.Point out any time you see your child touching their face.

B.Health

C.Offer your child something they can hold.

D.Explain why it' important if your child is old enough.

E.Praise your child when they aren't touching their face.

F.Encourage your child to wash their face carefully.

G.Sports

Every winter people talk about the inconveniences (不便) that snow brings and no one really takes time to fully enjoy it. On the night of the first snow this season I went outside and just stood in it, happily looking up at the dancing snow that greeted me with kisses as they landed on my face.

While people complain about snow, the old saying is completely right in this case: you never know what you have until it's gone. Do you remember the winter two years ago when it hardly snowed and wildfires and drought (干旱) ran across the state the next summers? People should love snow instead of hating it, since if it snows more we'll have more water. Now the drought in California, which has troubled the state since 2011, has been less terrible, because of increased levels of rain and snow throughout the state. Without enough snow, the soil for crops isn't ready for spring, and food prices rise. Without snow, it doesn't feel like the holidays.

I understand why people hate snow. It's cold, it freezes everything and it's hard to drive in. However, there is something beyond these inconveniences. Last winter, half the towns cars were stuck in the snow. The other half were helping. Everyone who wasn't stuck got a tool and stopped to help everyone in need. People at school whom I had never talked to helped me dig out my car. Because of the snow, everyone came together and was filled with holiday spirit.

Here in Utah we should be especially obliged for the snow. Utah is famous for its skiing sports and with the snow come tourists and outdoor fun for ourselves. Even if you can't afford expensive activities such as skiing or snowboarding, there are still snowmen to be built and ice houses to be set up.

Remember: we can't control the weather but we can control our attitudes.

1.How did the author feel on the night of the first snow that season?

A.Worried. B.Surprised. C.Bored. D.Excited

2.What does the author want to show by mentioning California?

A.People there prefer winter to summer. B.The weather there changes frequently.

C.There is more snow in California. D.Snow helps California a lot.

3.What's Paragraph 3 mainly about?

A.The good things coming with snow. B.The inconveniences caused by snow.

C.The reason why some people hate snow. D.The funny activities connected with snow.

4.What does the underlined word "obliged" in Paragraph 4 mean?

A.Prepared. B.Grateful. C.Concerned. D.Careful.

The balalaika, also called the "Russian guitar", is a traditional Russian musical instrument. It has a long neck, a wooden triangle-shaped body and strings. It is usually used to play Russian music by plucking the strings with fingers or a pick.

Russians like the balalaika. The music played with it can be cheerful, as if the farmers were dancing happily to celebrate their harvest. It can also be energetic, as if the workers were working hard to make their country richer and stronger. If a Russian moves to live or work abroad, he will probably take a balalaika with him. When he feels lonely and sad, he will play it to cheer himself up.

The balalaika was originally played by the poor in Russia. At that time, balalaikas were made by the players themselves. They were rough, simple and cheap with different numbers of strings, from two to even six. Later a Russian musician Vasily Vasil'yevich Andreev (1861-1918) improved the balalaka. He created a whole family of balalaikas of different sizes, all with three strings. The smallest balalaika is called Prima. It is 60-70cm long. The biggest, Contrabass, is almost 2metres high with a leg to sit on the floor. Andreev founded the first balalaika orchestra in the world, mainly using balalaikas to perform. He gave concerts at the Universal Exposition in Paris in 1889, which was a great success.

Today, there are blalaika groups performing around the world. More and more people get to know the balalaika and are attracted by its Russian style music.

1.The balalaika is a musical instrument __________.

A.without strings B.with a long neck

C.of a round shape D.with a metal body

2.The music played with a balalaika is usually__________.

A.slow and sad B.strong and serious
