1 . Mobile phones have a bad influence on young Chinese students’ sleep and memory, according to a recent study.
The study is based on (以……为依据) a survey of 2, 298 students aged 6 to 18. It found boys are more dependent (依赖的), but girls are more likely (可能的) to use their mobile phones before they sleep than boys. 1.The more students use mobile phones before they sleep, the longer it takes for them to fall asleep. So they will not sleep well, which leads to a poor memory.
In 2021, the Ministry of Education stopped all primary and middle school students from bringing mobile phones to schools. If they want to bring mobile phones to schools, they need to hand them in to their teachers during school time.
Yu Yi, father of a primary school student in Changsha, Hunan Province, “she has a smartwatch if she needs to reach us,” he added.
2.年轻的学生很容易对手机产生依赖, so the intervention (干预) from parents is necessary.

Before you go to another country, it is a great help if you know the language and some of the customs of the country.
When people meet each other for the first time in Britain, they say “Hello!” or “Nice to meet you.” and shake hands. Usually they do not shake hands when they just meet or say goodbye. But they shake hands after they haven’t met for a long time or when they will be away from each other for a long time.
1.Last year a group of German students went to England for a holiday. Their teacher told them that the English people hardly shake hands. So when they met their English friends at the station, they kept their hands behind their backs. The English students had learned that the Germans shake hands as often as possible, so they put their hands in front and got ready to shake hands with them. 2.这个行为使得大家都笑了。

When people say Chinese culture, we often think of paper cutting. 1.Paper cutting is an art form which has a long history. Traditional paper-cuts were first put on windows for decoration (装饰). That is why paper-cuts are also called “window flowers”. Most paper-cuts are made of red paper, because red means good luck in Chinese culture. Today, people use paper-cuts to decorate not only windows, but also doors and other furniture (家具). Sometimes, people use them as gifts.
Paper-cuts are popular because of their expressions of good wishes and hopes. During the Spring Festival, for example, many people put up paper-cuts of the Chinese character (汉字) “Fu” upside down on the door. They hope that it will bring them good luck.
If you think paper cutting is difficult, you’re wrong. 2.It’s easy to learn it. With a piece of paper and a knife or a pair of scissors, you can try to make your own paper-cuts. Although paper cutting is easy to start with, you need a lot of practice and imagination to become really good at it.
