Enjoy family fun time. Mum , Dad and me. We are a family. Mum and Dad are busy. But they always find time to     16     with me! So we have our family fun time.

We walk our pet dog after supper every day. We do sports together every weekend. We visit my grandparents every month. We     17     on the same day every year. What do you do for your family fun?

My name is Tang Yining. I’m 10. Every spring, my family goes to pick cherries. We travel to a village. I carry a basket. I run from one cherry tree to another. My basket gets     18    . Mum teaches me     19     a cherry tree. I hope they grow taller and bigger. Then I can get more and better cherries next year!

The Lantern Festival is a popular festival in China. It is in     20     or March, fourteen days after the Spring Festival. People usually go to     21     in the streets or in the parks. There are many lanterns. Children often     22     in their hands. They’re very excited.     23    , we can watch fireworks（烟火）at night. They are so beautiful. At the festival people eat small dumplings. In China, people also call them Yuanxiao. It means family reunion（团圆）and happiness.

Do you know how to wash your hands? It seems like a stupid question because everyone washes his or her hands so many times each day. However, according to a report by the Ministry of Health（卫生部）, most people in China don’t know how to wash their hands correctly（正确地）.

The report was based on（根据）a survey（调查）of people in Beijing, Liaoning, Yunnan and Shanxi. The report shows that only 4% of Chinese people wash their hands correctly. More people in cities seem to know how to wash their hands. Women washes their hands more correctly than men.

The World Health Organization tells us that we should wash our hands in the following situations（情况）：before eating and cooking, after using the bathroom, after cleaning around the house, after playing with pets, before and after taking care of any patient（病人）, and after touching money.

Washing one’s hands should also take at least 20 seconds and it’s best to use warm water.

It’s really annoying when we are following the story in a movie online, and then it suddenly stops and loads（载人）again. But don’t be angry. The problem may be s    47     in the near future.

On March 14th, Premier（总理）Li Keqiang said the government should improve Internet services. Only one day later , the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology（工信部）r    48     that they would take action to speed up the Internet and lower fees.

Terrible Internet speeds have given many regular Internet users a headache in China. According to a recent s    49     that was made by Sina（新浪网）, 66 percent of people were not satisfied with China’s Internet.

China’s Internet connection speed is slower than in many other countries. The average Internet speed in China was 4.25 megabits（兆位）（Mbps）per second in late 2016. South Korea had the fastest speed. It was 25.3 Mbps. People can download a 1 GB movie within 6 minutes in South Korea, b    50     in China it would take half an hour.

But sadly, the p    51     for the snail-speed Internet is not low in China. The Sina poll （投票） shows that nearly 70 percent of people spent 50—200 yuan a month on broadband （宽带）Internet services.

To improve Internet services, the key is to build more fiber networks（光纤网络）. Through hair-thin glass fibers, we can send text, music, pictures and video globally in l    52     than a second. We also need to have more operators（运营商）b    53     China Telecom and China Unicom to encourage competition and thus lower the fees, said The Beijing News.

We often hear people say, “Life is not perfect.” But when problems really come to you, what do you do? Are you able to get through hard times?

Liang Jiaxiang has a story to tell. The 13-year-old Beijing boy once took part in the election （竞选） for class monitor. But he failed , which made him feel frustrated （懊恼）. “All the books and TV shows say that as long as you work hard toward your goal, you will make it.” said Liang. “But why didn’t I make it? Does it mean hard work is useless?” He spent some time thinking, but still felt upset for he didn’t get any answers. Then he decided to talk to his classmates to find out why he was not chosen. “Through the talks, I learned problems with myself that I never noticed before.” said Liang. “I cheered up again, since I saw what to improve. I will fight for the next vote.”

Like Liang, Cao Yuhan, a 12-year-old Beijing girl, used to have difficulties, too. It all started when she was told to learn how to swim. Cao hated swimming. She didn’t practice , so one time she fell into the pool and nearly drowned（溺死）. Feeling frightened, the girl said she suddenly felt challenged to learn the sport. “I told myself that I should beat swimming so that I would never drown again. Now I’m an excellent swimmer. If I had given up then, I would never have learned how much I could enjoy the sport.”
