For almost 100 years, the Winter Olympics has been a celebration of snow and ice sports around the world. It is a special event that only happens once every four years.
Although the Winter Olympics started with just five sports across nine disciplines (项目) in France in 1924, it has grown to include seven sports across 15 different disciplines and has been hosted in 12 countries across three continents (大陆). In 2022, for the first time ever in the Games’ history, Beijing will become the first city to have hosted both the Summer and Winter Olympics.
China has come a long way and achieved many goals since it took part in the Winter Olympics for the first time in 1980. In this short period of time, China’s players have won medals in six of the event’s sports. Short track speed skating (短道速滑) has been an area of expertise (专长) for China.
China’s love for winter sports has been growing. The Ministry of Education has set a goal of building 5,000 special schools by 2025 to improve winter sports education.
The government has also been encouraging primary and middle schools to add winter sports to their subjects. Many provinces and cities have already acted on this suggestion. Classes will be set up in schools in northern China to improve interest in winter sports. In southern China, schools can work with ice rinks (溜冰场) and winter sports clubs.
Beijing has already set a good example. It is reported that nearly 840,000 students in the city have begun taking winter sports lessons, including skating and skiing lessons.

【推荐3】First aid is a very useful skill to have. By learning it, you could save someone’s life in the unexpected situation. But in China, less than one percent of adults have first aid skills, according to the communication website.
The Ministry of Education (MOE) has realized this. On August 24, it issued (发布) a statement along with the Red Cross Society of China. It has asked all public schools in China to provide first aid courses, including CPR (心肺复苏) training, as part of their health classes. Then, how does CPR help? CPR is an important first aid skill that can save victims (受害者) of the cardiac arrest (心搏停止). The first few minutes are very important. If CPR is correctly performed on the victim within the first four to six minutes, the victim will have a better chance to survive. So Chinese students should learn how to do CPR.
A survey from the Development Research Center of the State Council shows that 64.6 percent of schools already have these courses. However, the results are not good. According to MOE’s statement, future results are expected to be better.
Other countries have also made efforts to provide first aid training for their people. In 1966, the US government said police officers, firefighters (消防员), middle school teachers and college teachers must receive CPR training. A 2017 survey showed that 65 percent of Americans had received CPR training. In Switzerland, all people are asked to learn first aid skills. In Germany, 80 percent of people have received first aid training.

| B．the World Health Organization thinks it's needed. |
| C．there aren’t enough doctors or nurses. |
| D．it can help people live longer lives. |
| A．恢复 | B．治疗 | C．幸存 | D．发展 |
| A．Students don’t get high scores in their courses. | B．The first aid training courses don’t go well. |
| C．The first aid training goes better than expected. | D．Students are interested in learning first aid skills. |
| A．first aid training is common in Asian countries |

Orrin nervously tapped his pencil on the desk waiting for his turn in the spelling bee. He was very nervous and knew that with three of them left, only two would make it to the county spelling bee.
Orrin had always been a good speller, but he had never calmed down. He had made it to the school bee every year. This was his fourth year to go.
“Capillary,” said the judge（评委）. “The word is ‘capillary’.”
Without a second thought, Orrin said, “C-A-P-I-L-L-A-R-Y.”
“That’s correct,” responded the judge as he took a sip of water.
Orrin let out another breath. He went into his state of paying no attention to the words of his competitors. When he listened, he would begin comparing the difficulty of the words. He decided that this way helped him concentrate better on his own.
It didn’t seem to take long before the judge was looking at Orrin again. Orrin smiled and turned his full attention to the judge.
“Accreditation,” said the judge.“The word is ‘accreditation’.”
Orrin remembered seeing this word in his brother’s college article.
“A-C,” said Orrin. He paused. “Is there another ‘c’?” His mind was racing and he got nervous again. He decided to add another “c”. “C-R-E-D-I-T-A-T-I-O-N,” stated Orrin confidently. It seemed to take forever for the judge to respond.
1. How many times has Orrin joined in the school spelling bee?| A．Two. | B．Four. | C．Six. | D．Eight. |

【推荐1】Starting from last fall semester(秋季学期), students in primary and middle schools will have at least one labor(劳动) course every week to learn basic housework skills such as cleaning, cooking, etc.
The Ministry of Education(教育部) had a new curriculum standard (课程标准) for labor education in compulsory education (义务教育) in May, 2022, including three kinds of tasks: everyday housework, productive(生产) labor, and service.
Primary school students in first and second grades need to do basic cleaning, including washing vegetables, peeling(剥) fruit, and raising one or two kinds of plants or small animals.
Third and fourth graders should clean their classrooms, wash their underwear(内衣), socks and shoes, know how to make cold dishes and use home appliances like TV set, fridge, electric fan, etc. Fifth and sixth graders should learn the skills of cooking two or three common dishes. For middle school students, they are encouraged to cook three or four dishes by themselves, learn how to make one or two kinds of traditional handicrafts (传统手工艺), and experience one or two kinds of industrial (工业的) labor, new technologies, modern service or volunteer work.
Schools should use different ways to help parents know the importance of labor education and help parents make housework lists to improve students’ abilities. Only if schools and families work altogether to educate students, will students be able to enter the society and have a bright future with hard-working hands.

【推荐3】You’re doing homework online for a science class. A question comes out: Do newborn human babies see the world in black and white? You don’t know the answer. Do you guess or search it online?
Searching online for the answer may get you a better grade on the homework. But it won’t necessarily help you learn. Guessing is a better way to learn, a new study suggests.
Glass found this from analyzing (分析) homework and the grades on tests that he gave his students from 2008 to 2017. For many years, students had improved through each set of questions and did best on the exam. But by the late 2010s, “the results got very messy,” says Mengxue Kang, one of the writers. Many students were doing more poorly on the exam than on the homework. In 2008, only around 3 out of 20 students performed better on their homework than on the exam. But by 2017, more than half of the students performed this way.
Glass wondered, “How could it be?” So he thought about what had changed over those years. One big thing was the rise of smartphones. They were not common in 2008. But now almost everyone carries one. So it would be easier today to quickly go online and find the answer to just about any homework question. But students can’t use phones during an exam. And that might explain why they aren’t doing as well on the tests.
Scientists agree that coming up with answers on your own should lead to better learning for students at any age. If you find and then copy the right answer, you’re taking the easy way out. And that is wasting a valuable practice chance. It may take a few more minutes to think of an answer on your own, and then check to see if it’s right. But that’s the way you’ll learn more.
