Recently，Chongqing Three Gorges University has held an activity named"Cell Phone Ninja"（手机忍者）．They would like their students not to use cell phones for 21 days．It is really a challenge（挑战） for most students．
The activity started on April 12．Each student who volunteered to take part in this activity got a bracelet（手环）．If the students did not use their cell phones，there would be a photo on the screen of the bracelet to show that．If they used their cell phones，a different photo would appear on the screen of the bracelet．After the last class of each day，the students sent the photos to the school's public WeChat．
More than 800 students wished to take part in this test，and 400 were chosen．After seven days，only 103students remained．The test was set for 21 days because some scientists believe that 21 days is long enough to help form（形成） a habit．

A Chinese song could be heard in a classroom in Sanaa， the capital of Yemen（也门），where around 20 Chinese learning schoolchildren were singing．
"I love to learn the Chinese language because it is very nice，important and I want to travel to China to complete my studies there，" Karim al﹣ Areqi， a student of the private Languages Model School in Sanaa， told Xinhua．

（61） Friends are important in our life，because no one wants to be lonely．However，some people have difficulty in making friends and they often feel lonely．（62） According to a new study from Chicago University，the reason is that this kind of people have brains（脑）different from common people．And they often feel unsafe when facing strangers．
Does that mean they have no way to become happy again？（63） Scientists of this study have thought up ways to help these people deal with their loneliness．They provided four steps for getting out of loneliness．
（64） "It's not enough for people just to get in touch with others online．That's because most people don't show their true selves there，"said Dr． Cacioppo．one of this study's scientists．Another step is to get an action plan．As"actions speak louder than words"，people need to be active to communicate with others．They also need to meet people with the same interests．Also，they should try to expect the best from each activity．（65） Who knows what good things are waiting for us？

Think of somebody you really admire.You will probably find that their success didn't come easily.As "Father of Hybrid Rice（杂交水稻）"，Yuan Longping got over great difficulties and spent his whole life working to reduce world hunger and helping to feed the country with the largest population.
Wu Mengchao，the "Father of Chinese Hepatobiliary Surgery（肝胆外科）"，focused on saving people's lives for nearly eighty years.He performed more than 16，000 operations during his life.Holding the surgeon' s knife for such a long time deformed his fingers .Wu once said， "It would my greatest happiness if I could work at the operating table until my dying day."
In1969，in order to solve the problem of treating malaria（疟疾），Tu Youyou，pharmacologist （药学家） took on the job as head of a research team.She and her teammates performed different kinds of experiments.However，the results were disappointing.Instead of giving up，they kept trying.Finally，in1972，they made it!In2015，at the age of 85，she received Nobel Prize.
Thomas Edison，the inventor of the light bulb believed that every failure was a step towards success.He once said， "If I find 10，000 ways something won't work，I haven't failed.I am not discouraged，because every wrong try is another step forward.
Sometimes，their success was a surprise，even to themselves.The famous scientist Alexander Fleming said， "When I woke up just after daybreak on 28th September，1928，I certainly didn't plan to revolutionize（变革） all medicine by discovering the world's' first antibiotic（抗生素）.But I guess that was exactly what I did.
Some people only became successful after their deaths.Not like Pablo Picasso who became famous and very rich during his lifetime，the artist Vincent Van Gogh only sold one painting all through his life and that was to a friend.But he kept painting and he painted more than 2，000 artworks in the following ten years.Now his paintings are very popular and they sell for millions of pounds.

Have you ever paid for educational podcasts （播客） or live videos？ Ask some people and most of them will say yes． "Pay﹣for﹣knowledge" has been more and more fashionable these years． The contents of these "pay﹣for﹣ knowledge" products are from language learning to gardening or baby﹣caring． Everything you think of can be found online at this moment． "Pay﹣for﹣knowledge" is on the rise （兴起）．
Why is "pay﹣for﹣knowledge" industry developing so rapidly？ First， its development is based on the Internet． With a fast network and a smartphone， anyone who has passed the identity （身份）check can be an online teacher， and anyone with an online account can buy "pay﹣for knowledge" products that he or she wants at an affordable price． Second， people are afraid to miss any information． On one hand， people hope for more useful information． On the other hand，such information is usually at the hands of experts （专家） who serve well﹣known companies and universities．Moreover，the need to learn new skills in today's job market also pushes people to learn on such educational podcasts．
The industry of "pay﹣for﹣knowledge" has proved to be lucrative． It promises possibilities of turning information into money． It is good for the development of our country and it can help sellers make lots of money． Besides， buyers can enjoy self﹣growth from it．What's more， this is a reflection （反映） of respect for knowledge and talents．
However，the rapid development of "pay﹣for knowledge" has a few problems．For one thing，the market is full of eye﹣ catching words such as "How to be an Industry's Expert in 5 Hours" and "15 Classes to Be a Master of Appreciating （欣赏） Classical Music"， which sound like if you pay for it， you are sure to succeed． For another， a large number of customers buy them just for showing off． In fact， those who have really had self﹣growth after buying online courses may be the kind of people who need them least． In other words， with or without these courses， they can make it anyway，because they are those who have the ability to learn by themselves．
In general， the best is the one that suits you most．"Pay﹣ for﹣knowledge" may be used as a good start for self﹣ growth． Be careful! Otherwise， your dream of success may not come true．

D． teach parents how to buy some online courses for their children
For years，psychologists（心理学家） have been against giving children prizes or money for their performance in school．"Outwards"prizes，they say，can undermine the joy of learning for its own good and can even lead to cheating．
But many economists（经济学家） and business people disagree，and their opinions often become popular in the educational market place．Prize programs that pay students are underway in many cities．In some places，students can bring home hundreds of dollars for，say，taking an Advanced Placement course and having high grades in the exams．
"Whether such efforts work continues to be a debate（争议），"said Barbara Marian，an assistant professor of education at Pennsylvania State．She is against using prizes as encouragement．Among parents，it often leads to very hot discussion．And in public education，a new focus on school reform（改革） pushes researchers on both sides of the debate to make more efforts to get data（数据） that may provide information on when and whether prizes work．
"We have to get beyond our biases（偏见），"said Roland Fryer，aneconomist at Harvard University who is planning and testing several prizeprograms．"Luckily，the scientific method allows us to examine most ofthose biases and let the data do the talking．"In the cash programs being studied，Roland Fryer and other economists compare the schoolperformance of groups of students who are paid and students who arenot．In the study，they find that the students who are prized get highergrades on the SAT and go to better colleges than those who are not．
However，many psychologists believe that early data can be one﹣sided．Research suggests that prizes may work in the short term but havebad influences in the long term．
"Are they highly interested in what they are doing？Or does it feel like hard work？The same prize program might have different influences ondifferent kinds of students，"said Kirabo Jackson，a famous psychologist at Cornell University．"The higher the prize is，the more harmful the result might be．"
81．The underlined word"undermine"in Paragraph l most probably means" "．

Yang Yu， 14， of Jilin， hasn't adapted （适应） himself to the changes in his classroom since the first day of this term： teachers now hold classes with a computer and screen． "Instead of writing on the blackboard as before， they click the mouse and show us the Power Point （PPT） slides （幻灯片） on the screen． Sometimes， there is not even one word on the blackboard after a whole class，" Yang said． "I'm not quite used to the multimedia （多媒体） class．"
More and more middle schools in China now use multimedia in class． Teachers put their courses on a computer and show their lessons with a PPT． To make the lessons more interesting， they play animations （动画） and movies．
Hu Wei， an English teacher in Sichuan， thinks multimedia class seems to be more interesting than traditional classes． His students practice their oral English by following music and animations on a computer． "It helps them speak English bravely and actively，" Hu says． "Besides， it's also a helpful tool for teachers because showing PPTs saves us more time than writing notes on the blackboard．"
However， multimedia class makes things more difficult for students like Liu Yifang， a 15﹣year﹣old Beijinger． She can't take all her notes as before． "There are no words on the blackboard， but many on the screen，" Liu says． "Besides， my teacher speaks so fast that I can't catch up．"
Liu thinks it is not the best way to learn． "For me， I like the old way． I agree that the multimedia is helpful， but so is the blackboard，" Liu says． "If teachers can use both tools properly in class， I think that will be really good for everyone．"
（1）What equipment （设备） do Yang Yu's teachers use in multimedia class？

Passage 3

The program is led by local schools and supported （支持） by University College London． So far， 14 schools have taken part in the program． Hundreds of secondary school students in England have taken lessons in Mandarin Chinese． Over the next three years， they will spend eight hours studying Mandarin Chinese every week．
Ned Miller is an officer of the British government． He said a high level of fluency in Mandarin Chinese would become more and more important． "Language skills are important for jobs and life． Mandarin Chinese is spoken by the largest number of people in the world． It is also one of the languages that matters the most to our country's future． If the United Kingdom wants to remain competitive in the world， we do need far more of our young people leaving school with a good commandof Mandarin Chinese，" Miller added． "We hope that our young people could be given the chance to study the language． We want them to be fluent in both spoken and written Mandarin． The Mandarin Excellence Program will help us do this． It will not only open the students' eyes， but also give them a great advantage when they enter the world of work．"

Some parents are used to doing almost everything for their children． They see their older children as babies all the time! It can be a very common problem in China， because most parents only have one child in China． Some parents care so much about the safety of their children that they are afraid to let them go anywhere or do anything by themselves． So their children fail to learn social skills and become more dependent（依赖的）on them!
In fact， no children really enjoy being looked after by their parents all the time． No parents would be happy knowing that． Because of too much care， their children don't know anything about the world． Children need their own time to grow into adults and to learn how to deal with problems． Too much care damages their fun when they are growing up． And when suddenly they can't depend on their parents， these children will be in a big trouble!
It's nice that parents show their care to their children． It's nice that children know that their parents' care is out of love． And it will be nicer if the children let their parents know how much love they really need and how much love is too much．

It's a hot time for Chinese language learning across the world， not only because of China's higher position in the world but also because of the increasing economic （经济的） and cultural connections between China and other countries．

Other Chinese courses opened across the world show the increasing need for Chinese﹣speaking talent．Mandarin（普通话） became an elective（选修的） foreign language in Russia's college entrance exam． Following English， German， French， and Spanish， Mandarin has become the fifth elective test subject for the exam．
Spain has more than 40，000 people learning Chinese． Last year about 8，000 people took the Chinese Proficiency Test（HSK） exam． The number of people who took the test was the biggest， according to Xinhua News Agency．
