If you live in Shanghai, you might have taken a “lesson” in sorting (分类) garbage, as the city introduced new garbage-sorting regulations on July 1, 2019.
As China’s first city to carry out strict regulations(规则) on garbage sorting and recycling, Shanghai requires its residents to sort garbage into four categories, namely recyclable, harmful, dry and wet waste. If people fail to sort their garbage properly, they can be fined up to 200 yuan.
Since the regulation took effect, the amount of total daily waste in Shanghai has been reduced by an average of 15,500 tons, dropping 26 percent from the end of 2018, while the average daily weight of recyclables hits 4,500 tons, five times higher than the end of 2018, according to the Shanghai Landscaping and City Appearance Administrative Bureau.
The city also rebuilt 21,000 waste-sorting stations and more than 40,000 waste bins have been updated. The city’s waste collection and transportation system is complete, according to the bureau.
“Proper waste sorting is to protect the environment and save natural resources,” said Deng Jianping, director of the bureau. “Led by the central government, Shanghai is making efforts to develop long-term solutions to garbage management.”
However, there have also been some problems. Some people complained that it is difficult to deal with wet garbage, as they are asked to remove wet garbage from its bag when dumping (倾倒). According to the sorting rules, the wet garbage must go in the wet waste bin and the bag must go in the dry waste bin.
This separation is necessary, as it ensures that the wet garbage will decompose (分解) properly and become useful organic (有机的) waste, the bureau said.
Plastic bags can affect this process. Some people in Shanghai are instead using paper bags that can biodegrade（生物降解）or plastic containers that can be washed and reused, according to Xinhua.

Have you ever read a food blog? If your answer is no, here is one for you. WeirdMeat.com is an online journal that was started a few years ago. Basically, the blog records the author’s experiences of eating strange foods around the world, and his observations of how different cultures feel about food. So far, the author has tried snakes, scorpions, spiders and nighthawks. Just as the author says, “What is weird（奇异的）to one might be normal to another.”
Many of the things on the author's weird-meat list might sound horrible to us. For example, ostriches are cute birds, but people in Iran make big ostrich sandwiches, supposed to be the world’s largest sandwich. If you are tired of eating meat, you can try “lemongrass giant crickets（蟋蟀）with Thai spices”. They go well with salads. If you enjoy the crispy texture of the crickets, you might want to eat several. How about some “turtle shell jello”? You might have heard of it though you've never had a chance to try any, “Gui Lin Gao” (turtle jelly) is Chinese. It’s a popular dessert in summer and usually served cold. It tastes like Coca Cola, and it is also said that the mixture is good for the skin. And in Bangkok, the author has tried all kinds of insects, including white ant eggs. A soup is cooked with ant eggs, larvae, and baby ants, and you may find that the ants’ little black eyeballs are staring at you while you eat the soup. “Awesome” is the word the author uses to describe the flavor. He couldn’t wait to have another bowl.

Beijing Daxing Airport is Finally Open
Beijing Daxing International Airport (PKX), also known as Beijing New Airport, is the biggest airport in the world. It is also the second international airport of Beijing along with Beijing Capital International airport. Daxing Airport is located in Daxing District (the southern suburbs of Beijing). Its location was selected after thorough analysis. With a 46km-distance from Tiananmen Square, a 67km-distance from Beijing International Airport and a 26km-distance from Langfang City Center, Daxing Airport aims to become the main airport hub of the serving area. It is expected to handle up to 45 million passengers per year by 2021 and reach an outstanding 100 million in the future.
How big is Daxing Airport?
Daxing Airport was called “Starfish” because of its impressive shape. There is a huge terminal building (航站楼) covering a 700,000m² area while the ground transportation centre extends to 80,000m². For the time being, Daxing Airport has four runways and 79 airport stands. The 4 runways’ size is impressive while the airport stands are suitable both for one twin-aisle (双通道) and two single-aisle planes. Eventually, the airport will have 7 runways in total and will be able to serve about 620,000 flights annually.
Who designed Daxing Airport?
The airport’s design is pioneering. Its terminal building is the impressive outcome of the collaboration between ADP Ingeniérie (ADPI) and the architecture team of Zaha Hadid (ZHA) who tragically passed away in 2016. Then, in August 2018, Hong Kong design studio Lead 8 undertook the design of the new commercial terminal which is expected to respond to every passenger’s needs.
What are the designing advantages?
Daxing Airport was designed to show high respect to environmental protection. Besides, to simplify passenger procedures, there are only less than 600 meters between checkpoints and gates and a minimum waiting time for baggage claim. Furthermore, the designers paid great attention to the convenient ground transportation system of the airport. High-speed and intercity trains, metro and public buses will connect the new airport to Beijing city and other major areas in a fast and efficient way.

Patrick and Rachel Hugens have biked around the world. The Hugenses, who live in Boise when not on their bikes, are 25 months into their latest round-the-world adventure, scheduled to end in March. They've visited 36 countries on this tour, touching Europe, Africa, Asia and South America. “Traveling by bike is the greatest freedom," Rachel said via email. “You can see people's daily lives and can communicate with them.”
Rachel warns, “Cycle touring can become addictive.” Bike tourism is on the rise in the United States and around the world, according to the Adventure Cycling Association. The U. S. Bicycle Route System has grown 66 percent in the past two years and now has a presence in 24 states, including Idaho, and the District of Columbia.
Dennis Swift，secretary of the Southwest Idaho Mountain Biking Association, rode across the U.S. last year- from Seattle to Salem, Mass. Six people started the tour and three finished, riding 52 out of 56 days. They averaged about 60 miles per riding day. Swift also rode through the Basque Country with a group of Boise cyclists last year. He's planning to participate in a Virginia bike tour this year. “When you get older, your health is most important,” he said. “My mom had Alzheimer's disease. They say what's good for health is good for the brain, so riding is one thing to be first in my life.”
This is the third time that the couple have quit their jobs to tour. Rachel is a nurse; Patrick is an architect. Both regained their former jobs when they returned home in 2000 and 2007. They're uncertain what will happen this time. They've given themselves a chance to save extra money by going to work by bike and avoiding some bills that are basic for most ( cell phones, cable TV).“Traveling changes your view of money and what it can do for you,” Rachel said. “We've met some cyclists traveling long term. They have many reasons to spend wisely.”
“The fellow cyclists we meet mostly come from Britain, Germany, Spain, Holland, Australia or New Zealand," Rachel said, “It is so nice to see that people all over the world are friendly and welcoming.”

Just like in school, there are lessons you will learn in Latin dance. These lessons are not only about the dance itself. It’s also important to learn about manners (礼节) to get along well with other dancers.
What are some of the manners you should know about in Latin dance?
1. Sit out if the dance floor is overcrowded.
There are times when there are too many people on the dance floor. When the dance floor is overcrowded, people can run into each other, causing people to get angry. If you are polite, you will sit out in order to give way to other dancers. This way, they can perform with enjoyment.
2. Do not get in the way of other dancers.
There may be times when you need to share one dance floor. The best way to do it is to start in a place not too close to the other dancers. When you see that they need to move into your space, allow them some more space to complete their performance. Once they are finished, you will have the space to yourself and the people next to you will make space for you.
3. The dance floor is for dancing.
In the dance hall, do not use the dance floor to talk to your friends, discuss, or disagree about something. Dance floors are not sitting areas where you can do just anything. You will bother other dancers on the dance floor.
4. Avoid stopping other dancers.
You might need to step onto the dance floor while other dancers are performing. If you need to do this, walk around the dancers to avoid stopping them. This is one way of showing respect to your friends. You would not want them to stop you if you were the one dancing, so do not do it to them.
If all dancers would take these Latin dance manners to heart, then people would get along better on the dance floor.
1.What should you do if there are too many dancers on the dance floor?
________________________________________________________________________
2.What should you do when other dancers move into your space on the dance floor?
________________________________________________________________________
3.What should you do to avoid stopping other dancers when dancing on the same dance floor?
________________________________________________________________________
4.What is the passage mainly about?

It is essential to our children’s development that they are provided with life skills. It is of great importance that our children should be taught basic life skill lessons in order to live the life they dream of as they enter adulthood.
How we teach youth life skills is the focus of this article. We will explore and share life skill lessons with you so that the time you spend with each child is more productive and moves them to take positive action.
What should be included in a youth life skills program?
1）Financial literacy（理财素养）. Financial literacy training can improve every aspect of a child’s life. Studies show that people that have developed financial literacy skills are healthier, have better relationships, and have more confidence. Financial literacy training is the foundation which all the other youth life skills can build on and support.
2）Relationships. Children need to understand the importance of encouraging relationships and develop the skills to maintain positive relationships. One key part of developing positive relationships is the ability to communicate effectively. This is a life skill that will not only benefit （使受益）their friendships but will help them in their careers as well.
3）Strengths development. It is important for adults to focus on the strengths of their children and help them to take their strengths to the next level. For most, what we are good at is also what we enjoy doing. Make your youth life skill program one that helps them follow their passions and build upon the strengths they have developed while growing up.
The focus of youth skills programs is recognizing students’ potential and providing them with the proper tools to enable them to develop their skill sets. You are helping to open up windows of opportunity for them and encouraging them throughout the process by making them feel worthy.
The goal of youth life skill programs is to help our children grow into responsible adults. Children cannot grow into the wonderful human beings they are meant to be when they are shut down, turned away and ignored. They need the proper guidance that will enable them to feel proud of their achievements. They also need the opportunity to express themselves in an environment that is willing to listen to them and to help them as well. There is only so much they can stand on their own; the rest is up to the adults that play important roles in their lives.
1.What is important for children to learn according to the article?
______________________________________________________________
2.Who do you think the article is written to, students or teachers?
______________________________________________________________
3.What can children benefit from financial literacy skills?
______________________________________________________________
4.How can we encourage children to keep learning the life skill course?
______________________________________________________________
5.What do children need so that they can learn to stand on their own?

阅读下面短文并根据题目要求回答问题。答语要意思清楚，结构正确，书写工整。
You don’t have to spend money or even leave your desk to protect the environment. Here’s how to do your bit.
● Buy nothing
“Stop shopping—start living’’ is the slogan (口号) of the Buy Nothing Day ( BND) movement. Every 24th or 25th November, activists take a 24-hour retail (零售) break and… stop shopping!
BND was founded in 1992 by Canadian artist Ted Dave and it has been a great success ever since. People stop shopping on the day, expressing their concern about the environmental problem. So if you are used to shopping every day, BND gives you a chance to have a break! You might change your habit not just for one day, but for life!
● Stop eating prawns
You’ve probably got prawns ready for a quick and easy meal. But how are they produced? Well, most prawns come from Asia and Latin America, where they are fished or farmed.
Unfortunately, prawn fishing causes harm to marine (海洋的) life because huge nets are pulled along the sea bottom. 10 kilos of dead fish are thrown away for every kilo of prawns caught. Prawn farming is no better—a lot of forests are destroyed to make room for the farms. So think again about the prawns on your plate!
● Save the rainforest
Now only 2 million square miles of rainforests are left, and another 1% is being destroyed every year. The trees are being cut down for their wood, and the remaining rainforests could have been used by 2050. Over half of the world’s plant and animal species are found in rainforests. It is believed that extinctions (灭绝) take place every day due to cutting down trees.
Why not go to www. worldlandtrust. org? Donate the price of a cinema ticket for a piece of rainforest. It will be saved with your simple click of the mouse. If we don’t act，in 30 years from now the rainforests will have been destroyed.
1.What do people do on BND? (不多于四个单词)
2.Why is prawn farming bad for the environment? (不多于十个单词)
3.How long will the remaining rainforests be used? (不多于三个单词)
4.What does the passage mainly talk about? (不多于八个单词)

阅读下面短文，并按照题目要求用英语问答问题（请注意问题后词数要求）。
Too many people want others to be their friends, but they don’t give friendship back. That is why some friendships don’t last very long. To have a friend, you must learn to treat your friend the way you want your friend to treat you. Learning to be a good friend means learning three rules: be honest; be generous; be understanding.
Honesty is where a good friendship starts. Friends must be able to trust one another. If you don’t tell the truth, people usually find out. If a friend finds out that you haven’t been honest, you may lose your friend’s trust. Good friends always rely on one another to speak and act honestly.
Generosity(大度) means sharing and sharing makes a friendship grow. You don’t have to give your lunch money or your clothes, of course. Instead you have to learn how to share things you enjoy, like your hobbies and your interests. Naturally you will want to share your ideas and feelings. These can be very valuable to a friend. They tell your friend what is important to you. By sharing them you help your friend know you better.
Sooner or later everyone needs understanding and help with a problem. Something may go wrong at school. Talking about the problem can make it easier to solve（解决). Turning to a friend can be a first step in solving the problem. So to be a friend you must listen and understand. You must try to put yourself in your friend’s place so you can understand the problem better.
No two friendships are ever exactly alike. But all true friendships have three things in common. If you plan to keep your friendships, you must practise honesty, generosity and understanding.
