Everyone has an important role in society. In this time of public crisis(危机), it’s important that each of us sticks to our roles and plays them well. What can common people do in this crisis? How are the Chinese people taking on their special responsibilities? Here are some of the examples.
The novel coronavirus(新冠病毒)made this year’s Spring Festival very different for most of us. Many places in China began a first-level emergency (突发事件) response to the virus at the end of January, calling for people to stay at home. Following these rules, most people gave up family dinners during the Spring Festival and canceled any festival celebrations.
“It’s the quietest Chinese New Year I’ve ever had,” Xin Jingrong, a 14-year-old student from Nanning, Guangxi. It was the first time that Xin’s grandmother had to put off her trip to Nanning and stay alone in her hometown.
The control all over China not only separates many families, but also ▲ . Many shops are closed, delivery services are slow, and wearing masks in public has become a must. But people are showing their understanding and cooperation (合作).
Tong Zexi, a 15-year-old student from Harbin, has not gone out in more than 20 days. “I know I need to protect myself and cause no trouble. In this key time, when one gets sick, many others could be influenced.”
More than simply following the rules, some people have done amazing things to help fight the outbreak. On Feb 3, Zhao Junyan, a Junior 2 student from Shanghai, brought 15,000 masks from Indonesia back to China, People’s Daily reported. Zhao, while traveling in Jakarta, collected the masks with his uncle, who works in the city. The 15-year-old gave away all of the masks to Cangnan, Zhejiang, his hometown. “When a country is in trouble, everyone is responsible to help,” Zhao said to the reporter. “What I have done is what an normal Chinese person can possibly do.”
As a popular speech says nowadays, “We are all fighters!” Everyone has his or her role to play in this fight. And it’s believed that we can soon enjoy the warm sunshine and beautiful spring freely outside!

【推荐1】Many of us have feelings of loneliness as we grow up. As a teenager, just eating alone in the dining hall can’t be acceptable, and girls even go to the restrooms hand in hand. They fear being called a “loner”.
In these cases, we might use the word “loner” in a disapproving (不赞成的) way. However, it can actually have a positive meaning as well.
It all depends on our attitude toward being alone. If we see being alone as something not very good, we will be against it. But if we understand that it’s an everyday part of life, we’ll be able to “hug the beauty of our solo (单独的) journey”, as best-selling US writer Mandy Hale wrote in her book The Single Woman.
In some countries, more young people are choosing to be loners. In South Korea, “honjok” has become a growing lifestyle. The word comes from Korean “hon” (alone) and “jok” (group).These people eat alone, travel alone, and enjoy being by themselves. “I hope it grows into a self-supporting culture of happiness.” said Jang Jae Young, a South Korean who runs a website about this solo lifestyle called www.honjok.me.
In Japan, people have developed a strong “loner culture” and even a “loner economy (经济).” There are many solo KTVs and solo coffee bars. Noodle restaurants for solo customers are especially popular. There are boards which separate each seat. Customers fill out a form to make an order, and then press a button to call the waiter. They don’t see the faces of other customers or waiters.
People are becoming more experienced in and comfortable about being alone. This doesn’t mean we should totally keep ourselves away from the outside world, of course. But it doesn’t hurt to have some “me time” once in a while.
1. From the passage we know that “honjok” ________.A.means a group of loners | B.is a culture which brings people closer |
C.is a website run by a Korean | D.will be a popular lifestyle in North Korea |
A.合并 | B.隔开 | C.监控 | D.固定 |

The earth has warmed by about 1°F (华氏度) over the past 100 years, but why and how? Well, scientists are not quite sure. Maybe the earth gets warmer and warmer on its own. But many scientists say that people are doing many things which make the earth warmer. First, greenhouse effect (温室效应) is a very important reason for the change of the earth. People give out too much energy into the air every year. It makes the earth warmer. Climate (气候) change is another important reason. Sometimes it becomes too hot and sometimes too cold. Sometimes there is too much rain and sometimes too little. The change of the climate makes the earth warmer. In turn, the warmth of the earth changes the climate, too.
When the earth becomes warmer, there may be more rain and a rise in sea level. It will affect the growth of plants, animals and people. On a Pacific island, 100 people have to move to higher ground because the sea is rising. These people can no longer live on the coast. Before that, two islands without people went underwater in 1999. Scientists say that the seas can rise by nearly one meter by 2100.
People can affect the earth's air, land and water. As for us, we can do many things to protect the earth. For example, we can use fridges less. We can tell more people about protecting the earth.

According to research, an average American kid watches TV for about 3 to 4 hours a day. That means he or she spends more than one and a half months a year in front of the TV. But some American kids are just saying "No" to TV.
Take Meghan Kelley from Pembroke, Massachusetts for example. She used to spend a lot of her free time in front of the TV. But several years ago, Meghan gave up her TV habits. Her days of watching TV ended when she and her classmates took part in Screen-Free Week. Screen-Free Week is on the first week of May every year. It is an event where children, families and schools are encouraged to turn off their TVs, computers, DVD players, iPads and so on and "turn on life" —read, enjoy nature, and spend time with family and friends.
After the first week, Meghan decided to test herself further. "I wanted to see how long I could go without TV, " said Meghan. "Could I do it for a year? " The answer was yes!
Although sometimes she misses TV, Meghan finds life without TV more interesting. She joined two soccer clubs and now plays basketball. Because Meghan is studying more, she's also getting much better grades.
1. An average American kid watches TV for more than 20 hours a week.2. The writer thinks older kids could watch TV more often.
3. Screen-Free Week helped Meghan Kelley give up her TV habits.
4. Meghan Kelley found it hard to live without TV.
5. Meghan Kelley has never missed TV since she gave up her TV habits.
【推荐1】Things can be very dangerous in a fire. Do you know how to deal with them?
If you cannot get out of your room, close the door and put blankets or quilt(被子) at the foot of the door. They can stop the smoke from coming in. Open the window and shout for help. Call 119 or wave a flashlight or a piece of clothing from the window. Let people know that you are still inside the building. You can’t stay under the bed or in the wardrobe. When the firefighters come in, they will need to find you. So stay by the window on the floor.
If your clothes catch fire, remember the words: stop, drop and roll(滚动)
Stop running. Moving around will make the fire even bigger. Drop to the ground. Lie down on the ground. Roll around. Roll from side to side to stop the fire.
If your friend’s clothes catch fire, don’t let him or her run. Shout, “Stop, drop and roll!”

【推荐2】One day, I went to the store to pick up the next week’s food. I had put off shopping for Christmas presents until later in the month.
When we arrived there, I gave my son a dollar and asked him to give it to a poor man at the door of the store. We went in and soon filled our cart with food. Then we walked towards the self-checkout (自助结账) machines. I hated using them. I preferred to chat with the friendly cashiers (收银员), but there were too many people waiting there. As I pulled my cart up, though, I heard a man at the machine next to mine saying something angrily. Every time he put his old, wrinkled (起褶皱的) twenty-dollar bill into the machine, it spit (吐) the bill out I quickly took a newer twenty-dollar bill out of my wallet and gave it to him. He thanked me with a warm smile and paid for his goods (商品). I told him to keep his money but he insisted that I take his old, wrinkled twenty-dollar bill. I nodded, put it in my coat pocket, and wished him a Merry Christmas.
After checking out I remembered the saying: “Helping one person at a time, and always start with the person nearest you.” I reached into my pocket, smiled, and went outside. Then I gave that wrinkled twenty-dollar bill to another poor person and walked to my car happily.
In my opinion, we should change the world with our love. It is easier than it looks too. Just start with the person nearest you.

【推荐3】Both of my two sons were born in Toronto, but they moved with us to Ottawa when they were quite young. They went to school there, grew up there. Later, one of my sons went to Canada’s east coast near a city called Halifax and the other moved to the west coast to Vancouver. My wife and I were left in the middle.
As we nearly retired (退休), we started to think where we should spend our final years. For several reasons we decided to live on a small town on Vancouver Island, where was close to one of my sons. However, the son moved to Hollywood soon after he had got another job there. I helped him move.
We still lived a happy life in our little west coast town, but we have paid a price. We have not been there for some important events such as the births of our grandchildren. We have missed watching them grow up; we have missed backyard barbecues (烧烤) and basketball weekends with them. Our home, while very comfortable, was also very quiet.
Every fall we travel to see the children. We usually fly, first to California to see our son Scott and spend a week or more with him trying to catch up on everything we’ve missed. Then, usually in November, we make the even longer trip east across Canada to see Travis and our grandchildren, who were about their twenties.
Fortunately, both our sons are doing well and grandchildren are growing up straight and tall. We love all of them and they love us. We’re very happy but there are times I think about the things we didn’t see: the tears or the smile on the granddaughter’s face, their school graduations, my son’s joy at successes in business.
Life has been good for our family but we have all paid a price.

【推荐1】Have you ever met any people like this? They say they’d like to do this or that, but then they offer all the excuses in the world for why they can’t do whatever it is. No matter what the excuses are, the only reason is their own self-perception(感觉).
As a matter of fact, nothing is impossible if you set your mind on it. The things you need are willingness to work for what you want, patience to learn what you need to know and, most important of all, belief in yourself. You only need a seed, and then your faith in yourself will grow with you as you move forward.
If your self-perception is that you can’t achieve something because you’re not smart enough, then take the time to learn what you need to know, and then your self-perception will change. If your self-perception is that you can not accomplish something because you never finish anything you start, then go and finish something and change your self-perception. If your self-perception is that you’re too lazy, too busy, or too dependent on others to accomplish great things, then you’re right. You are that because you believe you are, but in fact you can change that.
Your reality today is the result of your past beliefs and actions. Change your beliefs and actions, and you will change your future. You are what you think. Think about that the next time you need an excuse.
