Life is filled with challenges. As we get older we      realize that those challenges are the very things that      us and make us who we are. It is the same with the challenges that come with     .

Although there are certainly     when calling it quits is the right thing to do, in most      all that is needed is     and communication.

When we are committed to something, it means that no matter how     or how uncomfortable something is, we will always choose to      it and work it through instead of running away from it. Communication is making a     for discussion and talking about how you feel as opposed to just saying what the other person did wrong.      you can say to a friend, "I got my feeling hurt,"         "You hurt my feelings," you are going to be able to solve the problem much faster.

 In dealing with the many challenges that friendship will bring to you, try to see them for       they are: small hurdles you need to jump or     on your way through life. Nothing is so big that it is      to get over, and hurt only     to make us stronger. It is all part of growing up, it     to everyone, and some day you will      all of this and say, "Hard as it was, it made me who I am today. And that is a good thing."

閱讀下面短文并回答問(wèn)題，然后將答案寫(xiě)到答題卡相應(yīng)的位置上（請(qǐng)注意問(wèn)題后的詞數(shù)要求）。

[1]Oops! In your rush to get to school, you drop a piece of toast on the floor. Do you throw it away or decide it’s still OK to eat? If you’re like most people, you eat it. Maybe you follow the “5-second rule”, which claims foods are safe to eat, if you pick them up within 5 seconds of dropping them. But you might want to think again. Scientists now say that 5 seconds are all it takes for foods to become contaminated with enough bacteria to make you sick.

[2]Bacteria can cause many kinds of illnesses. Some kinds of bacteria can grow on food. If we eat foods on which these bacteria are growing, we can become sick. One of these food-borne bacteria is Salmonella. It makes 1.4 million people sick every year. Earlier this year, 370 people became sick after eating peanut butter that had been contaminated with Salmonella at the manufacturing factory. Salmonella are often found in raw eggs and chicken. Cooking kills these bacteria, which is why it is so important to cook eggs, chicken, and other foods carefully.

[3]Being a good housekeeper is another good way to prevent infection. If household surfaces aren’t washed thoroughly, they can support Salmonella for weeks. A team of scientists at Clemson University in South Carolina have tested the 5-second rule, using sandwich ingredients. First, they placed a known amount of Salmonella cells on three surfaces: wood, tile, and carpet. They then placed a slice of bread and a slice of bologna(博洛尼亞大紅腸) on each surface for 5, 30, or 60 seconds. After just 5 seconds, both the bread and bologna picked up enough bacteria to make you sick.

[4]So forget the 5-second rule. If your toast lands on the floor, throw it away. Stick a fresh slice of bread in the toaster. And this time, be careful not to drop it!

1.What is the “5-second rule” mentioned in the first paragraph? (no more than 18 words)

——————————————————————————————————

2.Why is it important for us to cook food carefully?(no more than 5 words)

——————————————————————————————————

3.What advice is given to prevent infection in the last paragraph? (no more than 10 words)

4.Why did the scientists at Clemson University carry out that test? (no more than 15 words.)

5.What is the author’s attitude towards the 5-second rule? (one word)
