Firstly, prepare a large pot of soup. There is no right or wrong way to prepare a soup, so feel free to make your own. A simple soup can be made by boiling water with the addition of meat bones or fish heads and a mixture of herbs, seasonings and vegetables.
Then, cut a variety of meats and fish into thin slices.【2】. Choose any food that you enjoy. Some common choices for a Chinese hot pot include thin pieces of beef, pork, lamb and so on. You can make your hot pot using the more traditional method of using the meats and seafood that are local to you. Meanwhile, select, wash and prepare some vegetables. 【3】 .Mushrooms of all kinds are also common to Chinese hot pot preparations.
【4】. At home, a single hot pot would work well up to 8 people depending on the size of the pot. Make sure everyone is sitting in a circle and has easy access to everything on the table. Prepare a separate small dish for each guest to mix their seasonings. 【5】!

22、A Journey to the Yosemite Firefall
Each year, thousands of people are attracted to the Yosemite National Park in California for a chance of seeing — and photographing — the unique “firefall”. The amazing “firefall” comes to life only when there is enough water from the melting (融化) snow to keep the Horsetail Fall flowing and when the light of the setting sun hits the waterfall at the right angle. It can only be seen for a short time in February on clear sunny days.
This year, the weather isn’t stopping the “firefall” from happening, but it is making the journey to see it more difficult.
“What would have been a 10-minute walk turned into a two-hour hike through deep snow?” photographer Ryan Fitzsimons said about his recent trip to see the phenomenon. “Our clothes were all wet by the time we got to a viewing site. But the heavy snow made the sight much more beautiful since the waterfall is much bigger this year.”
Another photographer Andy Heitz was making his first trip to see the “firefall”. He had to wait five hours in the extreme cold for his turn to take a picture.
“I got to the site at about 12:00 at noon. The place was already filled with hundreds of people waiting to see and photograph the ‘firefall’. I was so lucky that I shot a really wonderful burner! I was completely amazed with what I saw,” he said. “You know, only on a couple days of the year in February and when the sun sets down at the perfect angle to shine on Yosemite’s Horsetail Fall can we see the ‘Fire Fall’. I’ll never forget what I have seen.”
The “firefall” should continue to be there from 20 to 24 February. But park officials said that there’s no guarantee (保证) that visitors will see it on any given day.
【1】When might be the best time to take pictures of the “firefall”?
A.Early in the morning.
B.At noon.
C.Late in the afternoon.
D.At night.
【2】What does the underlined word “burner” in paragraph 5 refer to?
A.A worker in the kitchen.
B.The fire in the Yosemite National Park.
C.A part of a cooker or stove.
D.The unique Horsetail Fall in the setting sun.
【3】Why might the “firefall” disappear between 20 to 24 February this year?
A.There wouldn’t be enough snow.
B.It might be too cloudy.
C.The waterfall might not freeze.
D.The snow might met too fast.
【4】What is the main purpose of this text?
A.To introduce an attraction.
B.To give suggestions for a trip.
C.To advertise a park in the US.
D.To explain what is a “firefall”.
23、Weighing yourself regularly is a wonderful way to stay aware of any significant weight changes. 【1】
As for me, weighing myself every day caused me to shift my focus from being generally healthy and physically active, to focusing only on the scale. The original training program is beneficial for me to develop muscle. 【2】 However, thinking only of lowering the number on the scale, I changed my training program.
I found that weighing myself daily did not provide an accurate description of the hard work and progress I was making in the gym. It takes about three weeks to a month to notice significant changes in your weight due to changing your training program. The most immediate changes will be observed in skill level, strength and inches lost. 【3】 Instead, I switched to a bimonthly weighing schedule. Weighing every other month allows me to observe and account for any significant weight changes. 【4】 I use my bimonthly weigh-in results to get information about my nutrition as well. If my training intensity remains the same, but I’m constantly hungry and dropping weight, this is a sign that I need to increase my daily caloric intake.
【5】 I’m experiencing increased passion for working out since I no longer carry the burden of a disappointing morning weigh-in. I’ve also experienced greater success in achieving my specific fitness goals, because I’m training according to those goals, not the numbers on a scale.
Rather than obsessing over the scale, turn your focus to how you look, feel, how your clothes fit and your overall energy level.
A.That was bad to my overall fitness goals.
B.Muscles rely on more than just activity to grow.
C.I had gained weight in the form of muscle mass before.
D.For these reasons, I stopped weighing myself every day.
E.That tells me whether I need to adjust my training program.
F.The decision to stop weighing myself every day has done a lot of wonders.
G.However, when done too often, this habit can sometimes hurt more than it helps.
24、Our teenagers are lonely. A new study by Harvard’s Making Caring Common (MCC) shows just how that feeling has been common and become serious during the past year when we had to keep the social distance. One year’s online learning and life in the bedrooms rather than the classrooms or dorm rooms can make teenagers feel lonelier than before. Teenagers have been more likely to be influenced by loneliness than older adults.
Experiencing loneliness is certainly sad, but it is also perilous. Researchers found that 63% of the young were suffering from bad sleep, anxiety, and poor health during the lockdown(活动限 制 ) and that nearly a quarter had started or increased some bad habits, including smoking, drinking and staying up late to deal with their feelings.
About half of the young people in the study, who said they had felt lonely, explained that over the past weeks not one person had taken more than just a few minutes to ask how they had been lately. It made them feel they had no one who really cared about them. Their parents thought they had much free time after lessons and it seemed that they only worried whether their children could perform their schoolwork at the level they once did. They didn’t know the problem.
Sian Leah Beilock, the president of Barnard College, explains that young people depend on social media, which makes them especially weak to social media’s harms. She also suggests that fewer close friends may explain some of the feelings of loneliness. She reports that in 1985 the average American had three close friends with whom they could share important things about their lives. In 2004, that number had dropped to just two friends. And in 2019. one in five millennials(千禧一代) had no friends at all.
These levels of loneliness are heartbreaking. MCC suggests, as a nation, we first should focus on teaching the young to make meaningful connections between people and support them.
【1】What is the finding of MCC’S study?
A.Every teenager has lonely moments.
B.Parent-child communication becomes less.
C.Teenagers care too much about others’ opinions.
D.Lockdown lifestyles increase teenagers’ loneliness.
【2】What does the underlined word “perilous” in Paragraph 2 probably mean?
A.Dangerous.
B.Funny.
C.Helpful.
D.Uncommon.
【3】What do the young people’s words in the study mean?
A.Their parents misunderstood them.
B.They found their schoolwork heavy.
C.They needed more care and attention.
D.Their online courses made them bored.
【4】Which of the following may Sian Leah Beilock agree with?
A.Teenagers are short of outdoor exercise.
B.Teenagers should make more close friends in real life.
C.Teenagers enjoy developing close relationships online.
D.Teenagers should avoid sharing important things online.
