Reading Expression

In China, more and more people have realized the seriousness of climate（气候） change. Many young people have been living a low-carbon（低碳） life.

Zheng Xiyu is one of them. She has been trying to reduce her carbon footprint. Every morning, she takes a bus to her office and it takes her about 40 minutes. But Zheng has been thinking of changing this. She wants to try a different means（方式） of transport—cycling. Riding a bicycle to work, the lady says, takes about the same amount of time as taking a bus. “However, it’s better for the environment and my health.” she says.

Professor Li Lin has also been leading a low-carbon lifestyle. Her office uses energy-saving lights. These lights go off themselves when they are not needed. This has saved a large amount of electricity. Another way to save energy is to double-print the paper. Professor Li says small actions like these are important for protecting the environment. “Let’s say you have saved one ton of paper. That’s about two and a half tons of CO2.” Professor Li says.

Lin Hui always chooses products with a longer life when he shops. He says this helps to reduce waste. Two years ago, Lin and his friends set up an environment website, where he wanted to give some advice on saving energy and protecting the environment.

It’s easy to change to a low-carbon lifestyle. Everybody can do this and make a difference.

Use words with proper meanings and grammatical rules to fill in the blanks.

(Only one word for one blank.)

（1）In China, more and more people have realized climate ________ is becoming ________ .

Fill in each blank with a proper form of the word given or a proper word.

Choose the best answer according to the passage you read.

In August, 2021, some new rules came out to restrict（限制） young people’s online game time. People under the age of 18 can only play online games three hours a week. Online game providers can offer only one-hour service to young people from 8 p. m. to 9 p. m. on Fridays, Saturdays, Sundays and public holidays. They are very popular with teachers and parents.

Zhang Zhe, a high school teacher in Nanjing, thinks online games influence students’ studies a lot. At home, parents often find it hard to stop their children from playing them. What’s worse, students might have no interest in developing friendship. “Students who become seriously addicted（上瘾的） to online games often find all kinds of excuses to play them. They also spend little on food or clothes to save their money for online games. So I think it is really necessary for the government to take action.” said Wu Li, a teacher in Wuhan.

Mrs Wang, a mother of a high school student in Shanghai, used to have difficulty keeping her son away from online games, so she felt really glad when the new rules came out. “Whenever I tried to stop him, he got really angry. For several months, he even refused to talk to me.” said Mrs Wang.

Thanks to the rules, students can have more time to take up new hobbies. To make sure that students develop healthier lifestyle（生活方式）, schools, teachers and parents need to work closely to help young students find proper hobbies, and hold different after-school activities for them.

（1）According to the first paragraph, which one is TRUE?

A．	A pupil can play online games 2 hours every day.
B．	A 16-year-old boy can play online games three hours a week.
C．	A student of 17 can play online games from 8 p.m. to 10 p.m. on Sunday.
D．	A girl from a junior high can’t play online games from 8 p.m. to 9 p.m. during the Spring Festival.

（2）Which of the following may happen to the students who are addicted to online games?

A．	They spend more on food and clothes.
B．	They have interest in making friends.
C．	Their studies are influenced a lot.
D．	They have a good relationship with their family.

（3）What should schools, teachers, and parents do according to the last paragraph?

①They should work together to help young students.

②They should take up new hobbies.

③They should develop healthier lifestyle.

④They should hold different after-school activities for students.

A．

①④

B．

②③

C．

①③

D．

②④

（4）The passage mainly tells us _________.

A．	some online games are harmful to students
B．	some students are addicted to online games
C．	some parents and teachers are against the new rules
D．	some parents and teachers welcome the new rules

Choose the best answer according to the passage you read.

With the winter vacation coming, I realized I needed to find a part-time job, because I didn’t want to ask my parents for money. I had imagined having a job at a winter camp where I could play games with children. In fact, the only job I could find was cleaning up tables at a local convenience store.

At first, I wanted to give up the job because getting up too early in the morning made me unhappy. I’ll never forget how tired I felt on my first day, but I’ll never forget sitting together and talking about our days with my workmates for the first time either. Suddenly, I felt good to be a member of them.

After working at the convenience store for almost one year, I was used to getting up so early, because I knew there would be a few good moments every day there.

Working at the convenience store, I’ve learned to grow into a boy that can depend on myself and get along well with others. And I’m not the shy person that I used to be. Meeting an impolite customer might make me feel bad, but very soon I could deal with it without difficulty. The job has given me so much, and I can’t wait to go back to the convenience store and continue to grow from my experience.

In China, many students spend much of their time on their studies, and don’t help with housework at home. As a result, they lack basic skills.

Luckily, things are changing. Last year, many schools began to teach students life skills.

Guangming Middle School in Sichuan set up some farming clubs. There students learnt to plant vegetables. “At first I thought I could only grow some vegetables here, but actually, I learnt a lot about vegetables.” said Chen Jia, a girl at the school.

In Hope Middle School, students have a special life skill class: they learn to make dumplings in different kinds of shapes. “I couldn’t make dumplings before, but now I am good at doing it. I really love my life skill class. It’s my favourite class.” said Zhang Yan, a boy at the school.

In fact, learning life skills is as important as learning Chinese and maths, because it helps us prepare for our future life. Boys and girls, do you help your parents do housework at home? If not, maybe you should get started now.
