1 . Have you seen All is Well which is the most popular TV series in 2019? It is not easy to be one of the top ten trending hashtages (热搜) on Weibo for many days. All is Well has done just that.
The show tells the story of a Chinese family torn by internal conflict (内部冲突). The main character, Su Mingyu, hardly communicates with her father and her two brothers.
Nowadays, there is often a lack of understanding between parents and children. Parents often complain about their children’s unreasonable behavior, while children usually think their parents are too old-fashionable. Then, when a child has a problem, he usually goes out, leaving his parents in the dark.
However, there is another type of parents who spoil(溺爱) their children a lot. They have a common sense that their children are so precious to them so they always try their best to give their children a happy and meaningful life. Therefore, an increasing number of parents spoil their children and do everything for them, even control their life. For example, many children have to obey their parents’ idea about which school they should go into after they graduate; some children must go to art classes like dancing, piano and painting even though they have no interest in them; what’s more, some strict parents even involve children’s freedom about what friends they should make. On the one hand, these parents care and protect their children, however, on the other hand they may do harm to their children.
As far as I am concerned, it is necessary that parents should give their children more space and freedom so that their children may become more independent.

2 . Columbus was an Italian. He believed the world was round, though few people knew or believed it at that time. He thought if he always went west, he would at last get to India. His friend, Isabella, the queen of Spain, gave him support which made it possible for him to start his journey.
On August 3, 1492, Columbus started from Spain with three small ships. He and his men stepped into what was then an unknown sea. Many thought that they would never come back. On and on they went with their ships, not knowing where they were going!
For a long time there was nothing but wide waters all around them. Day after day, and night after night passed by. The men who were with him became scared, and tried to force him to return. But Columbus was brave and would not turn back. At last, a land appeared.
When the people of the island saw Columbus’s ships, they were very surprised. They had never heard of Europe or the people who lived there. Columbus and his men filled their ships with fruits, vegetables, plants and animals. He even took some island people with him as he returned to Spain.
When the other countries of Europe heard of the great discovery of a new world, they wanted to share in its riches. So many things like bananas, sugar and cotton were brought into Europe from there. And these things changed Europe a lot.
The potato plant which was taken back to Europe also changed Europe. As it grew easily in Europe, it meant more food for the people there and so the population of Europe increase.

3 . With no doubt, good health is a priceless thing. When we are healthy, we can learn, work, and support ourselves and our families. When we are sick, we fight, and our families and societies fall behind.
That’s why the World Health Organization is needed. Working with 194 Member States, across six regions (地区), and from more than 150 offices, WHO staff are joined together in an agreement to make better health for everyone, everywhere.
WHO follows the basic rule that all people should enjoy the highest standard of health, no matter who you are and where you are from. And this has guided WHO’s work for the past 70 years, since it was first set up as the lead agency for international health in the new United Nations system (系统).
For many years, the world has seen a rise in noncommunicable diseases (非传染性疾病) such as cancer, diabetes and heart disease. These diseases now become the causes of 70% of all deaths.▲, along with health authorities (专家) around the world, to develop a healthy lifestyle such as healthy eating, physical exercise and regular health checks.
Since WHO changed its focus to a healthy lifestyle, it has always been trying to run global (全球的) health events on healthy cities in recent years, like building a community (社区) with few people smoking around. And since January this year, the outbreak of COVID-19, the Organization has pulled together people all over the world to bring the virus under control.
To succeed in reaching these goals of WHO will require people of all countries to look out for each other and work together to build a global community of health for all!

4 . AI（人工智能）can help us make phone calls, find the place we want to go and play games. And now, AI can do even more things.
Researchers have created the first translation system which makes sure you’ll have no difficulty in communicating in a foreign country.
The system, called the Pioneer, will enter the market in 2019. When set in an earbud（耳塞）, it fits comfortably in the ear. A pair of earpieces（听筒）is needed, one for each user. When the speaker talks, the Pioneer in the ear picks up the sound. And then the sound goes through the translation system that changes it into text in the listener’s language. Then, the text is translated into a spoken form, and at last the Pioneer “whispers（私语）” it back to the listener in his or her language. As a result, the listener can understand the other person even though he or she doesn’t know the speaker’s language at all.
But how can the Pioneer make sure the translation is correct? Researchers tried many ways to improve the system’s translation abilities.
In one method, the system translates every sentence from Language A to Language B, and translates the sentence back from Language B into Language A. This way, the system can improve itself and learn from its own mistakes.
Another way needs the system to repeat the process of translating the same sentence over and over again. This takes about three months and then the system can improve the ability of its translation.

5 . Monday, Oct. 23, marks the beginning of Shuangjiang or "Frost's Descent", the 18thof the 24 solar terms in the Chinese lunar calendar .It usually falls around October 23 and ends around November 7, making it the last term of autumn and meaning the last two weeks of the season. Since many foreign tourists have known little about, here is some information about it.
An end and new beginning
By the time of Shuangjiang. most of the harvesting (丰收) work is already completed in northern China .Farmers are now able to enjoy a period of rest.
But in the south .the harvest is still in its best time, as farmers have to take home the sweet potatoes before they are destroyed by the coming frost.
Across the country, after year of farming, now it is time to plow the fields and prepare the soil for next year.
Enjoy the flaming red maple leaves (枫叶)
Autumn might be the most colorful season in China with the leaves turning from golden yellow to red. Activities like hiking become popular as people appreciate the bright red leaves.
Nearly all the tourist websites list the best places for admiring the red maple leaves during this time, and many cities start to offer official routes for the best views of the leaves.
Appreciating in the view an old tradition starting in ancient times .Du Mu ,a well-known poet from the Tang Dynasty (618-907) described the mountainous scenery in a poem :“ stopped the coach as charmed by the maple woods ; Frosted autumn leaves outshine February flowers in redness.”
Best time to adjust (调整)to a healthy lifestyle
It is said that Shuangjiang is the best time to adjust to a nourishing (营养的) life, which reflects the belief that this is an important time to focus (关注) on health."Keeping warm "should be dealt with first.
Persimmon is the most popular fruit in many areas .Chinese believe that persimmon could not only keep off the coldness ,but also strengthen the muscles and bones .Other fruits ,including apples and bananas, are believed to help provide the necessary nutrition for the human body.

6 . As we are getting older and older, our ability to think and remember starts to become worse. But not everyone is like this. Some people are super-agers, who are over the age of 80, but have the brain of much younger people.
Scientists know that parts of the brain become smaller in size with age. But the change of the super-agers’ goes much more slowly. In her recent study, Emily Rogalski, a neuroscientist (神经科学家), showed that super-agers have young brains. The area of the brain for attention and memory was shown to be thicker in super-agers. “When we look at a super-ager’s brain, we see that it looks more like a 50-year-old brain than an 80-year-old one”.
▲ Most of them like travelling and playing sports. They always enjoy reading. And they usually have healthy relationships and spend time with friends. “Growing old,” she adds, “does not have to be depressing and sad. Perhaps if we expect a little better from ourselves, we’ll understand that not all getting old makes us sad”.
Rogalski said jokingly that super-agers do not grow on trees — meaning they are special and few. She says she wants to find out why a super-ager’s mind is working so well and not getting old as quickly as most.
The science behind super-agers is a new, but growing field. It attracts many scientists. Scientists in the research offer the advice to us: Stay active. Learn new things. Challenge yourself. Develop healthy relationships. We may also become super-agers if we follow the advice.
1. Super-agers are people ________.| A．over 80 with older brains | B．under 80 with older brains |

10 . In China, each year we produce about 150 million tons of city waste according to a report. Where does the waste go? People usually burn or bury(埋)it. On the other hand, we receive waste from some developed countries. We get useful materials from it. What about the useless part? Still burned or buried. But is it a proper way?
Waste pollutes the environment, harms people's health and causes animals to die. It also gets in the way of green and sustainable development. We can't make money at the cost of the environment. We should leave clean water and green mountains to our next generations(一代人).
China is getting really serious about waste now.
We are taking less waste from developed countries. From January 2018, China started to stop 24 kinds of waste coming into our country. And more laws and rules about dealing with waste have been made. Anyone who breaks the law will be punished.
China also tries to put waste into good use. One example is the waste electricity factories. They burn waste to make electricity in a green way. No harmful gases or water will get into the environment.
The Chinese government is encouraging people to do waste sorting(分类). Cities like Shanghai, Chongqing and Beijing have their own sorting systems. More will join them soon. As President Xi Jinping said during a visit to Shanghai, waste sorting is a new fashion(时尚). More and more people are forming the habit of separating their waste.
