Many people would like to watch sport matches. First, you need to know about audience manners.
Most sporting arenas(竞技场) have rules for audience written on the back of the tickets. Read your ticket carefully before you arrive. Try to reach your seat half an hour before the start of the event and don’t leave when a game is in progress. When you leave, remember to take away your soft drink bottles and other rubbish.
During exciting games, try to control yourself. Don’t criticize(批评) the performance of players and coaches. Be careful with your words, since some may cause anger among other people in the audience.
Clapping is a special form of body language you can use to communicate with players, but you should do it properly. When players first appear, clap your hands together to welcome them, but don’t go on for too long. After an excellent performance, clap warmly. If someone fails, your clapping will help encourage them.
Clapping is not welcome, however, while players need to keep their attention. Various sports have various rules for the audience.
Enjoying artistic gymnastics(艺术体操) silence. But lots of cheering can really help basketball and football players. When you watch snooker(斯诺克) and table tennis matches, flash photography is not allowed. Mobile phones are not allowed in shooting centers.
To be a good audience, you should take time to learn the game—particular rules and related culture of each event.

【推荐3】Our smart phones are amazing, but our connections can be so slow. The future in science-fiction movies seems so close, yet so far away. 5G technology makes that future look easily achievable. What is 5G? It’s the latest generation of cellular (蜂窝状的) network technology. It is faster and more stable (稳定的) than 4G. This powerful wireless network will change the way we live.
Transportation
With the introduction of 5G and smart technology, traffic lights, buses and even cars begin to communicate with each other. We will be able to check traffic flow so that traffic jams (拥堵) may soon become a thing of the past. Moreover, it’s reported there is a good possibility of seeing driverless cars on our roads. With the help of 5G, these cars will be able to react to sudden changes in their environment at once, such as a dog running across the road.
Medical treatment
With 5G networking, all the people can have the chance to use top medical resources. Before treatment, 5G will support video calls with doctors and provide advice for those who can’t visit a hospital at once. After being treated, wearable tech will send information to doctors in no time, allowing hospitals to monitor the patients from their homes. It also allows surgeons to perform operations remotely, using robots. In March, 2019, China completed its first 5G-based human brain surgery between a doctor and a patient located more than 4,000 kilometers away. Five months later, robots guided by Beijing doctors completed a test operation in three different locations at the same time!
It seems that 5G will make our life more exciting and convenient wherever we use it.

Many students don’t have a good habit, so they are not healthy. Here are some things about health.
●Healthy eating
Many students like ice-cream and hamburgers. But they are not healthy. Eat green vegetables and fruit every day. Apples, tomatoes and carrots are very good for us.

Dear Sam, It’s very important for us to be healthy. First, let me tell you how to eat well. You can eat some fruit every day, like bananas, “An apple a day keeps the doctor away.” And you should have tomatoes and carrots often. That’s because fruit and vegetables are good for your health. You can’t always eat hamburgers or ice-cream. They can make you fat. Second, you can walk (散步) after dinner. And you can play basketball with your friends on weekends.

When someone does something for us or gives us something, saying “Thank you ”is good manners. When we want others to pay attention to us, it’s good to say “excuse me”. However, good manners are more than words. Good manners are also actions.
When we give someone else our seats on a crowded bus, when we hold the door open for another person to walk through, and when we knock before opening the door of a room, we show our good manners. When we meet someone for the first time, it’s good manners to smile and say “hello” and give our name.
Sometimes, good manners can be the things we don’t do. For example, when we don’t talk with a full mouth or cut in line, that is showing good manners.
People often feel “not quite right”. Bad weather, a busy day, and health problems can make people sad. If we use good manners, we make getting along easier for everyone.
Good manners | |
Words | Say “thank you” if someone Say “excuse me” if we want to get others’ |
Actions | Give others our seats on a crowded bus. Say “hello” with a smile. |
Things we don’t do | Don’t talk with a full mouth. Don’t |
There are many holidays and festivals. Dads have Father’s Day. Mums have Mother’s Day. But do our grandparents have a special festival? Yes, they do!
The Double Ninth Festival is a special day for older people in China. It started long ago. The festival is on lunar September 9th. On this day, people show love and respect for their grandparents.
Respecting older people is a tradition in China. That’s because the Chinese know that older people have much knowledge and experience that young people can learn. There are many ways in which Chinese people express their respect. When an older person enters a room, everyone should stand up. Also, people are introduced from the oldest to the youngest. When we present a book to an older person, two hands are used. And young people always offer their seats to older people on a crowded subway or bus.
In Western countries, however, older people have different lifestyles from those in China. Western seniors don’t often live with their children—they live alone. They’d rather do everything themselves than get help from others. They even don’t want to be offered seats by others. Besides after retirement(退休), they would like to take up new hobbies, do part-time jobs and join in different kinds of activities.
Westerners still respect their older people. For holidays, families usually get together at the grandparents’ homes, and a great smile and a warm hug for their parents are enough for grown children to show their respect. What’s more, seniors usually don’t have to buy tickets for trains and buses. They are given discounts(折扣) in stores and restaurants as well.
1. Do the Chinese have a festival for the old?2. What is the right order when we introduce people in China?
3. According to the passage, why do the Western older people choose such lifestyles?
4. Would you like to offer your seat to the old on a crowded bus in China? Why or why not?
