“Many people died in their thirties or forties when I was a child", Chen Zhixiang, an 82-year-old teacher who grew up in Xi'an, told Xinhua. At that time, living to be 60 was a long life.
But that is no longer the case. According to the National Bureau of statistics（国家统计局）, the life expectancy for Chinese people rose from 35 in 1949 to 77 in 2019.
Chen told Xinhua that he rarely ate meat when he was a child. People didn't have enough food and clothing at that time. And anyone who became ill may die.
Now Chinese people are enjoying healthier and more nutritious diets. The grain, meat, peanut and fruit has topped the world for many years, according to the State Council. In 1949, China's per capita disposable income（人均可支配收入）was 49.7 Yuan. This same income reached 28,228 Yuan in 2019. It refers to the amount of money that each person has for spending and saving after paying taxes.
China is also paying more attention to improving people's health. China's medical insurance system covers more than 95 percent of the people.
The country has also made efforts to keep its people healthy with a national health program. As of 2019, China had more than 3.2 million sports venues across the country. Over 400 million people take part in daily exercise.

Every year many people died or were injured in car accidents where drivers were using their mobile phones. However, people continue to use them while driving even though it’s dangerous.
A recent study found that when drivers were talking on their mobile phones, their stopping times were 30 percent slower than when they had drunk too much—and nearly 50 percent slower than when they were driving normally(正常地). It also found that drivers talking on mobile phones were less able to control their cars than drunk drivers.
And talking isn’t even the most serious problem, texting is. An average text message takes 90 seconds to write and send. That means for one and a half minutes a driver is looking at their phone’s screen and not at the road. The arrival of new smart phones such as the iPhone will only make matters worse as they will allow users to do more things than ever before.
Using a mobile phone while driving puts others’ lives at risk. No matter how well we drive, if another driver is not being professional or careful，we are put in danger by their actions. Such drivers are selfish, careless and should have their driving licenses (驾照)cancelled.
There is no need to use them while driving. Just wait until you stop or you will probably get into trouble of your own.
1.The underlined word “them” in paragraph 1 refers to________.
A.phone users B.mobile phones
C.drivers D.ears
2.If a driver needs 10 seconds to stop when driving normally, they will need seconds to stop when talking on a mobile phone.
A.12 B.13 C.14 D.15
3.What is the most serious problem when driving?
A.Talking on the mobile phone. B.Texting. C.Drunk driving. D.Playing.
4.Why will new types of mobile phones make the driving problem worse?
A.It will take longer to send text messages.
B.People will want to talk on their phones more often.
C.There will be more things for people to do with their phones.
D.People think the new phones are easier and safer to use.
5.Which of the following is TRUE?
A.The drivers should use the mobile phone while driving.
B.Talking on mobile phones while driving is really worse than drunk driving.
C.The drivers should be put into prison(监狱) when they send text messages while driving.
D.It takes three minutes to write and send a text message when driving.

Many people who work in London prefer to live outside it, and to go in to their offices or schools every day by train, car or bus, even though this means they have to get up early in the morning and reach home late in the evening.
One advantage of living outside London is that houses are cheaper. Even a small flat in London without a garden costs quite a lot to rent. With the same money, one can get a little house in the country with a garden of one's own.
Then, in the country one can really get away from the noise and hurry of busy working lives. Even though one has to get up earlier and spend more time in trains or buses, one can sleep better at night and during weekends and on summer evenings, one can enjoy the fresh, clean air of the country. If one likes gardens, one can spend one's free time digging, planting, watering and doing the hundred and one other jobs which are needed in a garden. Then, when the flowers and vegetables come up, one has got the reward together with those who have shared the secret of nature.
Some people, however, take no interest in country things： for them, happiness lies in the town, with its cinemas and theatres, beautiful shops and busy streets, dance-halls and restaurants. Such people would feel that their life was not worth living if they had to live it outside London. An occasional (偶尔的) walk in one of the parks and a fortnight's (two weeks) visit to the sea every summer is all the country they want： the rest of the country they are quite prepared to spend with those who are glad to get away from London every night.

C. renting a small flat without a garden
D. buying a small flat without a garden
