From the time each of my children started school, I packed their lunches. And in each lunch I packed, I left a note. The note might be a thank-you for a special moment, or a few words of encouragement for the coming test or sporting event.

When they were little, they loved their notes. And when I went back to teaching, they even put notes in my lunches. As they grew older, my elder son, Marc, told me that he no longer needed my daily notes. Telling him that he no longer needed to read them but I still needed to write them, I continued the tradition until the day he graduated.

Six years after high school graduation, Marc called and asked if he could stay at home for a couple of months. He had spent those years well, and he was very successful. He lived far away from home. With his younger sister leaving for college, I was especially looking forward to seeing Marc at home.

Since I was still making lunch every day for his younger brother, I packed one for Marc, too. Imagine my surprise when I got a call from my 24-year-old son, complaining (抱怨) about his lunch.

“Did I do something wrong? Aren’t I still your kid? Don’t you love me any more, Mom?” he asked.

I laughingly asked him what was wrong.

“My note, Mom,” he answered. “Where’s my note?”

This year my younger son will be in high school. He, too, has said that he is too old for notes. But like his elder brother and sister, he will receive those notes till the day he graduates.

阅读下面短文,根据所读内容,在文章后1-10小题的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词。注意:每个空格只填1个单词。

The haze(雾霾) season is back. How much do you know about haze? Haze can also be called “smog”. The word “smog”is from the words “smoke” and “fog”. It first appeared in the early 20th century. It is a kind of air pollution (污染) caused mostly by cars and factories.

Smog will not be good for your health, especially lungs (肺). It can make you cough and cause skin and eye problems. It seems that we can do nothing to stop it, but only wait until the wind blows all the smog away. However, there are some easy ways to prevent it hurting you. Here are some of them.

1. Don’t do exercise in the open air.

Exercising in the open air makes you breathe (呼吸) deeply, and you will take in the particles(颗粒物) deep into your lungs.

2. Stay indoors and keep the air clean.

If you can, just stay in your room and keep the doors and windows closed. Remember to air your room twice a day. You can open the window at noon or at night for half an hour.

3. Wear a mask.

Paper and cotton masks can not help you in the haze weather. Some special masks, such as N95 masks, can keep you from breathing in the particles in the air.

4. Change your diet.

Scientists find that vitamin A, C and E can greatly help protect your eyes, noses and lungs. So eat more green vegetables and fresh fruit every day. What’s more, do not eat food with too much fat. It’s not good for your lungs.

The 1. weather

What is haze?

◆It’s called smog, a kind of smoky and 2. weather.

◆It is a kind of pollution caused by 3. and factories .

What is the harm (伤害)?

◆Stay indoors as 7. as possible with the doors and windows closed.

◆Don’t 8. to open the windows for a while to keep the air clean.

◆Choose N95 masks because 9. a mask can prevent taking in the particles.
