C. READING
X Read the passage and answer the questions.
KEEPING OUR TEETH HEALTHY
It’s very important to have healthy teeth. Good teeth help us chew our food. They also help us look
nice. How does a tooth go bad? The decay begins in a little crack in the enamel covering of the tooth. This
happens after germs and bit of food have collected there. Then the decay slowly spreads inside to the
tooth. Eventually, poison goes into the blood, and we may feel quite ill.
How can we keep our teeth healthy? First, we ought to visit the dentist twice a year. He can fill the
small holes in our teeth before they destroy the teeth. He can examine our teeth to check that they are
growing in the right way.
Secondly, we should brush our teeth with a toothbrush and fluoride toothpaste at least twice a day-
once after the breakfast and once before we go to bed. We can also use wooden toothpicks to clean
between our teeth after a meal.
Thirdly, we should eat food that is good for our teeth and our body: milk, cheese, fish, brown bread,
potatoes, red rice, raw vegetables, and fresh fruits. Chocolates, sweets, biscuits and cakes are bad,
especially when we eat them between meals. They are harmful because they stick to our teeth and cause
decay.
1 .Good teeth help us …………………. our food.
A. be nice B. have good eyesight
C. chew D. be important
2. When food and germs collect in a small crack, our teeth ………………….
A. become hard B. send poison into the blood

Community service is very important in social life. As you know, our social life has both the rich and
the poor people. So it is necessary for us to take part in volunteer activities to help poor people and elderly
people. We can help them in various ways. Firstly, it is easy for us to collect old clothes which we don’t
need. Besides, we can join volunteer activities to raise funds for the poor and the homeless in our country.
Finally, we can spend time talking with older people, sharing with poor children. Through these activities,
we can develop our leadership skill by organizing fund raising, providing food as well.
