Ahchoo! It might draw much attention around you and unpleasant looks showed their anger at you. They worried it might spread your illness of cold around. With saying sorry, you thought to yourself --- I was not catching a cold.
Besides having a cold, actually, sneeze can be caused for many other reasons. In winter, taking in cold air may cause you to sneeze. So does smelling certain spices（香料）. Many of us can?t stop sneezing even when seeing bright light. Some people may hold their nose and close their mouth when they sneeze. This is the polite thing to do. But it can be a bad idea sometimes. Do you know why?
Sneezing produces a lot of air pressure. If we press our nose and close our mouth, there is no way for the air to get out. Therefore, the increased pressure inside of us may harm our eardrums（耳膜）, as well as our throats or even our brains, according to the Guardian.
In fact, any kind of increased air pressure in our throat can make us feel uncomfortable or even harm us. But there is no need to worry. This kind of problem is very common.
Next time you need to sneeze, just do it --- by covering your mouth and nose with a tissue paper（纸巾）. 49. __________ causes for sneeze are mentioned in the passage. A. 3 B. 4 C. 5 D. 6 50. We always do something to stop sneezing to __________. A. stop illness B. be polite C. stay healthy D. protect our throats 51. According to the passage, preventing sneeze is bad for our body parts EXCEPT __________. A. eardrums B. throats C. brains D. hearts 52. If you want to sneeze, you should __________. A. just do it wherever you are without caring about others B. hold your nose and mouth to stop it C. take a breath to increase air pressure in our throat D. sneeze with a tissue paper covering your mouth and nose

Dreams are powerful. They can drive you to work harder and become better. It?s important for a country to have a dream and work for a better future as well.
President Xi Jinping said that realizing the great rejuvenation（复兴）of the Chinese nation by building a rich
英语试题卷 第4页 / 共8页
and successful country is China?s greatest dream in modern history, according to Xinhua News Agency. That dream is known as the “Chinese Dream”.
Many people have already contributed to（对?做贡献）the Chinese Dream while realizing their own dreams. Here are some of their stories.
Sun Yang, a swimmer, has won 12 gold medals in world-class competitions, including three Olympic ones. He is also the only man to have won gold in the 200m, 400m, 800m and 1,500m freestyle at the world championships. __________ He took part in student swimming competitions. For many younger swimmers, competing with Sun can be a big inspiration. He also went to Jilin and Jiangxi to give swimming lessons to primary school students. “I?m willing to see more and more young people to join us to swim and build a strong body.” Sun told CCTV.
Hu Weiwei set up the company Mobike, China?s first smart bike-sharing company. Hu has always loved riding bicycles. In 2014, she pointed out that she could connect mobile phone technology with bike-sharing to create a new trend（潮流）. “If I have a dream, it?s like a seed planted in my heart. And it grows,” Hu said.
Her dream was to create a great company that could “change people?s lifestyles and shape the future of cities.” And that is what Mobike is doing. Hu achieved personal success while helping society at the same time. In 2017, She was named as a good example for China?s young people.
The Chinese Dream is not only for the government. It?s shared by all Chinese people as well. By calling for a common dream, Xi is asking everyone to link their success with the future of the country.
More and more excellent young people are joining us in making their efforts to make their own Chinese Dream come true. Will you be the next one?

“What! You, too? I thought I was the only one.” Have you ever said this to someone? If so, you may have ended up becoming friends with this person.
It seems that similarity often helps form friendships. The Greek philosopher（哲学家）Aristotle once said, “Some define（下定义）?friendship? as a matter of similarity. They say that we love those who are like ourselves.”
Now, there is some science behind this idea. Scientists from University of California said friends have similar 英语试题卷 第5页 / 共8页
