    There is a famous English saying "You are what you eat", and it means what you put in your mouth will become part of you. Many experts(专家) use it to tell people it's important to have a good eating habit. For example, too much sweet food makes a person overweight. To avoid being fat, kids are told to keep off sweet food. However, a team of American scientists have discovered something new about eating sweet food.
"When we say some people 'sweet', we mean they are kind and friendly to us. Perhaps this word can help us learn more about people's feelings and acts." said Brian Meier, a scientist from the study team. "Taste is something we experience every day. What we have done is to find whether we can know someone's character and behavior depending on their taste."
    In one of their experiments, college students were asked questions about their character- whether, for example, they were soft-hearted or not. Then they were asked to make a list of their favorite food. According to their answers, the scientists found that the students who liked sweet  food were nicer.
    In their another experiment, the scientists found that people who preferred sweet food such as cookies and chocolate were more willing to help other people in need, and those who ate non-sweet food such as chips weren't. For example, people with a sweet tooth were more likely to volunteer to clean up their city, visit sick children in the hospital and so on.
    The result of the experiments is that people's helpfulness or being nice has something to do with their taste for sweet food. So eating sweet food is a useful way to make people nice and helpful. Next time, try some ice-cream.

(1)、The underlined word "it" in the sentence "Many experts use it to tell people it's important to have a good eating habit." refers to______.

A、the sweet food B、the English saying C、the American team D、the eating habit
(2)、According to the result of the experiments, sweet food makes people______.

A、overweight B、excited C、relaxed D、friendly
(3)、The scientists found that the people who preferred______ were less helpful.

A、chips B、chocolate C、ice-cream D、cookies
(4)、It can be learnt from the passage that______.

A、scientists asked college students questions about their future B、scientists told college students not to eat sweet food C、people with a sweet tooth are more willing to help others D、people's character has nothing to do with their taste

Along with firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce and vinegar, tea is considered one of the seven necessities for life in China. Now, it has also won global recognition as a shared cultural treasure of mankind.

On Nov. 29, Chinese traditional tea processing skills and their related social practices were added to the UNESCO intangible cultural heritage (非物质文化遗产) list. Since ancient times, Chinese people have been planting, picking, making and drinking tea.

More importantly, China's tea culture has formed Chinese customs. It is Chinese traditional custom that a host should welcome visiting guests with boiled tea. A poem by Song poet Du Lei reads, "I offer tea, not wine, to a guest on a cold night. When water boils on the stove, fire burns with flame bright."

Boiling tea is one of the oldest Chinese tea brewing methods, dating back to the Tang Dynasty (618—907). Tea leaves were boiled for a long time and sometimes they were cooked together with different kinds of herbs and fruits. During this process, people can enjoy a quiet time. Later in the Ming Dynasty (1368—1644), a faster and more convenient method become more popular—steeping (冲泡).

    ▲    . On the app Xiaohongshu, or Little Red Book, there are over 40,000 posts on the topic of "stove-boiled tea" (围炉煮茶). They lightly roast tea leaves before boiling them in a teapot on a stove. People sit around the stove in a natural setting and have snacks with their hot tea. Some also wear traditional hanfu as if it could take them back to those ancient times. Through "stove-boiled tea", people can taste a slower life and find their inner peace. As is written in one Xiaohongshu post, "It is very relaxing to drink hot tea, feel the fall breeze, and chat with best friends."

 下面文章中有四处(第1~4题)需要添加首句。请仔细阅读,从方框中所给的A~E五个选项中选择符合意思的首句(其中一项是多余选项),并回答第5题。

 Today we learn about World Water Day. Our teacher asks us to find something about it and then write a passage. So I find the following information online. 

{#blank#}1{#/blank#} One of them is water pollution. Polluted water is very bad for people' s health.  And it is also bad for marine life. 

{#blank#}2{#/blank#} It teaches people that fresh water is very important. Fresh water takes up only about 2. 8% of the total water. It reminds us to save water. And it asks people to do something to save water. 

{#blank#}3{#/blank#} They teach their students that saving water is very important. For example, a university had a contest for "the Best World Water Day Poster" before. And a primary school once had a "My School Toilet" contest. 

{#blank#}4{#/blank#} For example, "Valuing Water" in 2021, "Groundwater— Making the Invisible Visible" in 2022 and "Accelerating Change" in 2023. People all over the world celebrate the day now.

B. Many schools do something for World Water Day.

D. People in many places are facing serious water problems. 

E. Water is one of the most important natural resources on the Earth. 

Why does the writer write the passage? (回答不多于10个单词){#blank#}5{#/blank#}
