Now，the CPC is the biggest party in the world.（3） The members of the CPC must wholeheartedly serve the people and be ready to make any personal sacrifice （牺牲）.They may be your parents，uncles and aunts，grandparents or teachers.
But when danger comes，they stand out and fight for the people.（4） In the battle against COVID﹣19，CPC members fight on the frontlines.They put the interests （利益） of the country and people above their own.They take on great responsibilities just as the older generations did.

Playing for Friendship
Ping pong，or table tennis，might seem like an ordinary game to play with friends or family，but it holds a special place in China﹣US relations，as it has helped both countries get along for the last 50 years.This has been called "ping pong diplomacy （乒乓外交）".
Judy Hoarfrost was just 15 years old when she was sent from the US to China as part of a nine﹣ member table tennis team.The year was 1971.and for the past 20 years，relations between China and the US had been unfriendly.
But as the team toured around China，things started warming up.Hoarfrost even got to meet then﹣Premier Zhou Enlai. "The most unforgettable moment was Zhou shaking hands with me and looking into my eyes，" Hoarfrost told China Daily. "You have opened a new page in China﹣US relationships，" Zhou told the team.
In the years that followed the historic visit，ties between the two countries started to blossom.US president Richard Nixon would make a landmark （里程碑） visit to China in 1972，which also saw Chinese table tennis players make their own visit to the US，according to China Daily.Diplomatic relations between the US and China were fully established （建立） in 1979.
Players from both countries believed strongly in the idea of "friendship first.competition second".To this day，many of them remain friends.Hoarfrost thinks we should remember ping pong diplomacy in order "to understand the importance of people﹣to﹣ people exchanges in establishing bonds，human bonds between peoples. "
Seeing tension （紧张局面） between two of the world's biggest powers in recent years，Hoarfrost said China and the US should work together. "We have so much in common，and we need to build on what we have in common，" she added.

Today there are 6.4 billion people on the earth．By the year 2050 there may be 12.5 billion．There are many people to feed．We need more and more food．
One way to produce more food is growing stronger plants．For thousands of years，farmers have made plants better．Every season，they pick the best plants for the next season．It words very slowly．Since 1983，scientists have been able to change plants more quickly by changing their genetic（遗传的） material．Foods from plants grown in this way are called genetically modified（转基因的） foods，or GM foods．
By changing the genetic material of a plant，it is possible to make new plants．Scientists make plants which are strong against plant diseases（疾病）．They can also help in our diseases，a kind of rice will be grown，for example，which stops people becoming blind．
Rich countries produce GM foods because they are easy to grow and bring in more money．Poor countries are interested in them because they help produce more food．
GM plants are not natural．No one knows how good or bad they are．Making GM foods is only one way of feeding people in 2050．There are strong feelings against them because they are unnatural．They may feed people，then hurt them or their children later．But both rich and poor countries are interested in their uses，and they are not going to go away．In 2050，we may think differently about them．

The government in China plans to end its one﹣child policy （政策） and let families have two children instead．The plan was meant to balance （平衡） population development and stop a falling birth rate （出生率）．
China started the one﹣child policy in the 1980s．But the government allowed only a small number of couples to have two children．For example，some families in the countryside could have two children，if the first﹣born child is a girl．In 2013，the Chinese government gave other couples a chance to have two children if one of them was an only child．
Jiang Quanbao，a population expert，explained how Chinese families react to the newest policy．"Lots of young people in the cities are no longer interested in having a second child，"he said．
At the end of 2014，China had a population of 1.37billion people．But the labor market population will drop in 35years．That is to say，the country will be in great need of labor by the year 2050．With the"two children"policy，an increase in births can solve this problem．

Khan says the Belt and Road Initiative will have a very positive effect on the world．
"I hope that I can stay in China to participate in such cooperation projects．"he says．Khan says life in Beijing is much easier than he'd expected， thanks to the convenient（便利的） public transportation and restaurants offering food for Muslims （穆斯林）． This encouraged him to bring his family to live with him a couple of months ago．
He says that language is the only challenge for them so far． However， he finds no problem talking with his Chinese colleagues， many of whom speak good English． He also enjoys the relaxing working environment and has a very good relationship with his co﹣workers．

The Silk Road went from China to Eastern Europe．It went along the north of China，India，and Persia and ended up in Eastern Europe near today's Turkey and the Mediterranean Sea．
It was called the Silk Road because one of the major products traded was silk cloth from China．Chinese silk was soft and of high quality．So people throughout Asia and Europe loved it very much． （1） ．Even the Romans called China the"land of silk"．
Besides silk，the Chinese also sold teas，salt，sugar，porcelain（陶瓷），and spices．Most of the goods was expensive．This was because it was a long trip and traders didn't have a lot of room for goods．They bought goods like cotton，ivory，wool，gold，and silver．
Traders traveled in large caravans．They would have many guards with them． （2） __ Most of the road was through dry land．So camels were popular animals for transport．
Although there was some trade between China and the rest of the world for some time，the silk trade developed quickly during the Han Dynasty which ruled from 206 BC to 220 AD． （3） During this time the Mongols controlled most of the trade road，and Chinese traders travel safely．Also，traders had a higher social position during the Mongol rule． （4） __ It not only helped to develop trade between different countries，but also helped for ideas，culture and inventions to spread across the world．
A．The Silk Road was important． B．The Chinese sold silk for thousands of years． C．The Silk Road was full of wealth as well as danger． D．Traveling in a big group like a caravan helped in protecting themselves． E．Later，under the rule of the Yuan Dynasty，trade China along the Silk Road was fully developed． |
On April 26，2017，a big Chinese ship caught the eyes of the whole world．China's first homemade aircraft carrier﹣（航空母舰）hit the water in Dalian，Liaoning．It is the largest and best ship China has ever built．
The new ship is China's second aircraft carrier and it has n o name yet．China's first carrier is called Liaoning，which was bought from Ukraine and later rebuilt by China．The new carrier was designed in China and building began in 2013．It is about 315 meters long and 75 meters wide．That is a bit larger than three soccer fields．The ship must be completed at sea，which will take several years．
An aircraft carrier is like an airport on the sea．It can carry planes and troops to war．Planes fly from and land back on it，and soldiers work and live on it．Thanks to carriers，planes can fight along with warships．They allow planes to take off and land from anywhere in the ocean around the world．
But an aircraft carrier is very hard and expensive to build．It costs a lot of money and needs a large amount of steel and other special materials．For example，a basic aircraft carrier is made of 60，000 tons of steel!It also uses complex（综合的）technologies，including radar，electrics，mechanics and weapons．Finally，it takes years to build．
Today，not many countries own an aircraft carrier or have the ability to build one．When the new carrier is finished，China will become the seventh country in the world that can build an aircraft carrier by itself，after the US，Russia，UK，France，Italy and Spain．

Globalization means that people，ideas，technology，money，services and many other things are moving between countries and changing the way people think and act．
Not everyone thinks the same way about globalization．Some people think it is bad，and some people think it is good．Some believe that globalization helps rich people get richer and makes poor people poorer．These people say that globalization helps big companies like Coca﹣Cola and McDonald's destroy（破坏）local businesses．However，the people who think globalization is a good thing argue that globalization helps poorer people to become richer．They also think that it doesn't destroy local cultures．These people also believe globalization helps prevent wars．This is because countries with economic（经济的）connections will try hard to keep good relationships so that their economies aren't destroyed．
Whether you think globalization is good or bad，it affects the world in two areas：jobs and cultures．
Globalization has had a very strong influence on jobs all over the would．For some workers，such as engineers，lawyers and bankers，globalization has been a good development．These workers are able to successfully compete（竞争）globally and have seen an incrase in their pay．But for those who work in factories or in the aervice industry（at hotels，shops and restaurants），it has not been good．Workers from poorer countries are trying to get these types of jobs．They will do the same job for less money．This decreases the pay for that job，so people get paid less to do it．
Cultures have also been affected by globalization．Foods such as Japanese noodles，Indian curry and French cheeses have spread around the world．We can also see an increase in the use of Chinese characters（汉字）in tattoos（文身）．Some people get these tattoos but they don't really know what the characters mean．Globalization also affects the film industry．Most people have seen American movies．But because of globalization，Korean．Indian and Japanese movies have become more wouldwide．
No one knows the future of globalization．Most experts agree that it will continue to grow and have an increasingly greater influence on people's lives in the future．

Without proper planning，tourism（旅游业） can cause problem．For example，too many tourists can make public places crowded，which are also enjoyed by the local people．If tourists cause too much traffic，the local people will feel unhappy．They begin to dislike tourists and treat them impolitely．But they forget how much tourism can help the local economy（经济）．It is important to think about how tourism affects the local people．The local customs and beauty should be kept to attract the tourists by the local government．The local government should also care about the health and happiness of local people when developing tourism．
Too much tourism can be a problem．If tourism grows too quickly，people can leave other jobs to work in the tourism industry because they can make more money there．As a result，other parts of the local economy can become worse．
On the other hand，if there is not enough tourism，people can lost jobs，and businesses can also lost money．It coats much money to build large hotels，airports，firstclass roads，and other support facilities（设施） needed by tourist attractions．For example，each room of the firstclass tourism hotel usually coats about 50thousand dollars．If the rooms of the hotel aren't used most of the time，the owner of the hotel will lose money．
Building a hotel is just a beginning．There must be many support facilities as well，including roads to get to the hotel，electricity and so on．All of these support facilities cost money．If these facilities are not used because there are not enough tourists，jobs and money are lost．
