“Have yu checked the il in the car?” My father used t say t me. “Hell, hpe yu are well.” Smetimes ur phne calls wuld begin with a questin abut the il and end with a questin abut the il, with nt a lt in between.
Fathers have a lt f lve t give, but it's ften supplied thrugh the medium (方法) f practical advice. In my experience: It's mstly abut my car.
“Hw's the car running?” “Did yu get it serviced?” “Hw did yu get that scrape (刮痕) n the side?”
Why can't fathers just say“I lve yu” r“It's great t see yu”? The pint is: That's exactly what we are saying. Yu just have t translate frm the language that is Fatherlish.
The wrds“Yu made my life better frm the mment yu were brn” may be hardly heard, but there is the mre cmmn“I’ ll hld the ladder while yu get the leaves ut f the gutter (排水沟).”
When I was 17, I went n my first rad trip——a friend and I in that ld car. My father std n the crner early n a cld mrning t say gdbye t us.
“Highways are dangerus,” he said, “s dn't try t catch up with anything faster than a hrse. And take a break every tw hurs. And every time yu stp fr gas, yu really shuld check the il.”
At the time we thught his speech was pretty humrus and wuld chant“car and hrse, car and hrse” every time I drve faster and passed ther speeding cars.
Dad’s lng gne nw. But after all these years, I realize that had I wned a cpy f the Fatherlish-t-English dictinary, I'd have understd that the speech my friend and I s casually mcked (嘲笑) was simply Dad's attempt at affectin.
( ) 5. The father usually talked abut with the writer.
A. the writer's jb B. the writer's schlwrk
C. the writer's car D. the writer's friend
( ) 6. What did his father d when the writer tk his first rad trip?

( ) 7. What did the writer and his friend think f his father's wrds n a cld mrning?
A. Mving. B. Exciting. C. Serius. D. Funny.
( ) 8. is the best title fr the passage.
A. An Unfrgettable Mment B. My Yung age
C. Father's Practical Advice D. Father's Lve
(C)
Think abut what yu like t wear n the weekend. There's a gd chance that yu like t put n a pair f blue jeans. At any mment, abut half f the wrld's ppulatin is wearing jeans. But accrding t a new study, ur lve fr jeans may be bad fr Earth. The clth used t make jeans might be putting sme sea animals in danger. Every time we wash ur jeans, small bits f it will flw ut f ur washing machines and int the wrld's rivers, lakes and sea.
Yu might wnder: Isn't the clth made f smething natural? Hw can it becme a danger t nature? Well, when making jeans, the clth is treated with many types f man-made chemicals. Scientists aren't yet sure hw the chemicals in the clth might harm animals.
In the study, the scientists als washed jeans t see hw many bits f the clth n average each pair wuld drp per wash. The answer was wrrying: abut 50,000. Nt all f them make their way int the envirnment. Wastewater treatment plants hld back 83 t 99 percent f them. This may sund pretty gd. Hwever, ne percent f 50,000 are still 500 per wash. Nw think abut the number f jeans arund the wrld and the times each f them gets washed. As a result, a large amunt f the clth still gets int the envirnment.
Des this mean we shuldn't wear jeans? Prbably nt. “We need t buy fewer clthes and nly wash them when we truly need t d it,” says Sam Athey, ne f the scientists. “Yu dn't need t wash yur jeans after having wrn them nly a few times.”
( ) 9. The underlined wrd “it” in Paragraph 2 refers t .

Tetris, being a game that technically never ends, keeps yu thinking f the game's unfinished task, reprted Tech Times. And the catchy music stays with yu, t.
③There are advantages f the Tetris Effect. In his 1991 study, psychlgist Richard Haier at the University f Califrnia fund that keeping playing Tetris leads t the thickness f the cerebral crtex (大脑皮层) increasing, which imprves brain efficiency (效率), reprted psychlgy website Practical Pie. Haier's discvery gt Tetris put int the Guinness Wrld Recrds Vide Gamer's Editin 2008, as the“first vide game t be prven t imprve brain functining (功能) and efficiency”
