Whatever life threw at us each year, our family had one tradition at Christmas: our
dog Pepper opened our presents for us.
Last year, everyone made it home for a Christmas get-
together. However, it couldn’t fe
el
perfect because Pepper’s health was becoming worse. Her life had already been longer than we
expected-she was fourteen- and yet her mind was still sharp. Her love for life made us feel better.
But her body could not keep up with her mind.
Probably it was
Pepper’s last Christmas, so we decided to make sure she would enjoy it.
On Christmas Eve, we each prepared presents for her.
Soon, Pepper selected her first Christmas gift. She turned the present, just as she was a
young dog once more. She pulled the paper off the dog treat before she chewed (
咀嚼
) it slowly.
Our family was so happy.
Pepper saw the remaining three presents, and then turned to Mom as if asking, “May I
open another?”

“Go ahead, girl!” Mom encouraged.

For the next few minutes, Pepper opened each of her Christmas presents. While she did,
she reminded us of the joy of being together. Our family felt as a whole-not because we were in
the same room or city, but because our love brought us together.
Pepper passed away after Christmas. Her peaceful passing made us tearful. Her passing
was also a celebration of life, because she gave my family so much love and laughter.
I still treasure Pepper’s final Christmas gift. She taught me that no matter where we each
spend the holidays, the smallest act of sincere giving can unite our family through our love. For
me, that knowledge is the longest-lasting gift of all.

An Indian movie about two sisters has become a huge hit in China. The Hindi
language film, called Dangal, has earned almost $$ 170 million in China since its release there
on May 5.
Much has been written about why Dangal has enjoyed such big success in China. Some
people say one reason is that the film’s star and producer, Aamir Khan. He is famous in India’s
Bollywood film industry. Two of his earlier films were also big hits in China.
Khan’s popul
arity was clear after he got more than 600,000 followers on the Chinese
social media service Sina Weibo within two months of joining. But he is not the only reason
that the film strongly connects with audience across China. Media has pointed out how it shows
similarities between parental systems in China and India.
Dangal is based on the true story of a man who enjoyed the sport of wrestling (
摔跤
). He
competed as a wrestler, but never could achieve his lifelong dream: winning a gold medal. As a
father, he wanted his son to win the medal. But his wife only gives birth to daughters. So he
finally decides to train them to be world-class wrestlers.
The movie is more serious than most Bollywood productions, which tell happy love
stories and include colorful music and dance performances.
Edward Chan is a professor at the Hong Kong Polytechnic University. He says the strict
way of parenting in the film is something people in China can easily relate to. “I think the father
role described by the movie in India is quite similar to the culture, especially the traditional
culture in China.”

The Chinese government-supported Global Times newspaper pointed that movie critics
(
评论家
) in China did not like Dangal. Most of them agree with the fact that the father in the
film was forceful in pushing his daughters to become wrestlers. But the film Dangal is really
aimed to educate children to work for their dreams.
8

What’s the main reason for the father teaching his daughters to wrestle?

A

B
．
He wanted to punish them.
C
．
Few women took this sport.
D
．
He wanted them to realize his goal.
9
．
What do most Chinese movie critics agree?
A
．
The truth of the whole story was doubtful.
B
．
Indian films often have a bad influence on Chinese parents.
C
．
The father’s behaviour in
the film Dan gal was very cruel.
D
．
The film Dangal was against the Indian traditional culture.
10
．
What can we learn from the text?
A
．
Most films from Bollywood arc serious.
B
．
Daughters perform worse in sport than sons.
C
．
Indian parents roles are similar to those in China in some way.
D
．
The films produced by Aamir Khan is not popular with Chinese.
11
．
What does the author think of Dangal?
A
．
It’s unsuccessful.

C
．
It’s unknown.






Traffic Light Reading is one of students’ favorites! And it’s so simple. Here’s what to
do: Take three pens in different colors, most suitably red, orange and green. But it’s not too
important as long as teachers and students are both clear on the colour code they’re going to
use.
Students read a text, not worrying too much about how much they understand. Teachers
can ask them to re-read when students are paying attention to vocabulary. Start by underlining
B
．
It’s educational.

D
．
It’s relaxing.

the words that they understand completely (including names, numbers etc) in green.
Then students re-read the text and underline the words that look familiar, they maybe
know them but aren’t too sure about them. You guessed it: in orange.

Finally, students read the text a third time underlining the words they clearly don’t
understand in red. Sometimes teachers might want to set students a limit for how many red
words they underline, telling them only to underline the words that they believe are seriously
blocking their understanding of the text as a whole. Generally, however, students are pleasantly
surprised by how few words are red and how many are green. Seeing their ability laid out in a
visual way really helps to increase confidence.
Once the whole text is underlined, teachers can give students a limit of 5, 10 or 15 words,
depending on the len
gth of the text, and tell them they’re only allowed to look these words up in
a dictionary. This helps them to recognize words that are actually getting in the way of their
understanding of the text and words that they don’t know but actually don’t
impact their whole
understanding of the text.
This is a useful activity that can be done with a printed text, in a Google Doc, on
RealtimeBoard, or set as a homework task for some independent study.
12
．
What do we know about Traffic Light Reading?
A
．
It’s easy.

C
．
It’s difficult

B
．
I
t’s expensive.

D
．
It’s useless.

13
．
If a student uses orange to underline a word, it means that he





.
A
．
doesn’t know it at all

C
．
isn’t certain about its meaning

B
．
has actually understood it
D
．
has never met with it at all
14
．
What does th
e underlined word “impact” in Paragraph 5 mean?

A
．
increase.
C
．
affect
B
．
form.
D
．
use.
15
．
In the author’s opinion, Traffic Light Reading





.
A
．
needs more eyes than mind
B
．
trains students’ ability to learn

C
．
makes the students study long hours
D
．
encourages the students to speak bravely


二、七选五





Winter is a really fun time of the year
—
it's great to have snowball fights and build
snowmen, 16
．

When it's cold outside and you're not prepared, you can feel uncomfortable.
Lucky for you, learning how to stay safe is not difficult.
●
17
．

Wearing thick clothes is the best way to stay warm in the cold. Depending on where
you live and how cold it is, some kids may need more clothes, some less.
●Take that hat. You maybe wear a large overcoat and ready to go, but are you forgetting
something? 18
．

You'll stay much warmer with a hat than without one
—
tons of body heat
escapes right from your head.
●Drink up. S
ounds like advice for hot weather, not cold weather, right? 19
．

When you're
outside in the cold and breathing hard, your body loses a lot of water through your breath. And
the best way to get that water back is to drink up!
●Take it easy. Sometimes if you'
re out having fun, it's easy to forget to pay attention to
your body. But if your body temperature drops even 4 or 5 degrees while you're outside, it can
make you feel terrible. 20
．

And if you ever feel weak, those are signs that you have to take it
easy indoors for a while.
A
．
Love those clothes.
B
．
Have a snowball fight.
C
．
Pull a hat onto your head.
D
．
That's why you need to be careful with your body s signals.
, the truth is that it's good advice for both kinds of weather.
you have to know how to be safe while you're out having fun.
can stay outside as long as possible to fully enjoy your snow days.
