5 . After nearly half a century behind the wheel, Hisao Matsumoto, 85, is not ready to stop driving. “I’m not that old yet,” he says. “I still have 15 more years to go till I reach 100.” Mr.Matsumoto is one of more than 5 million drivers aged 75 or older. A million more will be on the roads by 2021.Worried, the police are trying to persuade many of them out of driving, because over­75s are twice as likely to cause a fatal (致命的) accident as younger drivers, according to the National Police Agency (NPA).

Nearly half of older drivers who caused fatal accidents had signs of cognitive impairment (认知障碍). Hundreds of older drivers turn the wrong way into motor ways every year. In January an 85­year­old man steered his vehicle into oncoming traffic on a country road, hitting a car and two schoolgirls. Police believe he mistook the accelerator for the brake. The man’s family said he had rejected their requests to hand over his keys many times.

Such stubbornness is common, notes Kazunori Iwakoshi, who heads an NGO that supports elderly drivers. Many drivers argue that they have never had an accident and it is unfair to do that, so they resent themselves being cast aside.

Since last March over­75s renewing their licenses must take cognitive tests to screen for dementia (老年痴呆). The NPA expects these changes to take 15,000 drivers off the road each year. Last year more than 250,000 over­75s gave up their licenses after their families’ constant stream of persuasion, says Mr.Iwakoshi. His organization publishes a check list for elderly drivers, aimed at getting them to assess their responses themselves.

Mr.Matsumoto is lucky. His city gives pensioners unlimited access to public transport. However, thousands of elderly people are stuck in rural communities with no buses.

I’d like to share a unforgettable experience with you.It happened in a warm Sunday afternoon in August .I go shopping with my cousin, Li Ming. When walk in the street, we found a young man, who was big but strong, stealing a woman’s wallet. We stopped her immediately. Though he stared at us angry, we didn’t feel frightened and tried to make him to realize his bad behavior. Because our bravery, he left without say a word. The woman thought highly of us for what we had done. In my opinion, it’s our duty to fight against bad behaviors.

7 . Is Managing Kids' Screen Time a Good Idea?

Screen time is a big topic of conversation in today's households, particularly during the pandemic when online education hours have multiplied for many students.    1    They hope to spare their kids from the countless challenges that technology can bring. Yet the challenges of screen time overuse seldom come from kids' devices themselves, but rather from the tense relationships that technology can bring to families.    2    But technology has positive benefits too. Since every child and family is different, managing screen time calls for joint family decision-making.

If parents believe they can manage a child's screen time through adolescence, they are not only fooling themselves but also inviting relationship trouble with their teens. It is a myth to think that parents can or should manage their kids' screen time through authoritarian restrictions, even during elementary school.     3     When children are left out of those decisions, they often become less communicative with parents and siblings. This is the opposite of what parents want to achieve.

    4     From early ages, children are quite capable of understanding that a good life involves awareness and balance. Just as they learn right from wrong, and good from bad, they can also learn to use technology in healthy ways. Learning how to regulate oneself and develop healthy behaviors is one of the primary tasks of childhood and adolescence. What happens when an adult tries to regulate a child is that the child misses out on the opportunity to learn for themselves. Enforced restrictions can also make children feel helpless and less confident.

To be clear, this article is not suggesting that families never use apps or trackers, or that there should be no restrictions on screen time.    5    Parents should give voice to children and involve them in the planning and decision-making process.

Huawei Technologies Co.Ltd. is a Chinese multinational networking and telecommunications equipment and services company with the headquarters     1     (set) up in Shenzhen, Guangdong. It is the     2     (large) telecommunications equipment maker in the world. Huawei     3     (found) in 1987 by Ren Zhenfei, a former engineer in the People’s Liberation Army. At the time of its establishment, Huawei focused     4     mass-producing phone switches, but has since expanded its business to include building telecommunications networks; providing operational and consulting services and equipment to enterprises inside and outside of China; and mass-producing communications devices for the consumer market. Huawei has over 140,000 employees; around 46% of     5     are taking part in research and development. So far, it     6     (establish) more than 21 Research and Development institutes in countries including China, the United States, Canada, UK and so on.

Huawei Technologies Co said that it recorded 159.6 billion yuan, 36.3 billion yuan, and 255.8 billion yuan in revenue (收益),     7     (respective). Its net profit margin stood at 9.2% in the first half of 2020,    8     (mark) a 13.1% increase year — on — year, despite US government restrictions and the challenges created by COVID-19. As     9     (country) around the globe are trying hard to solve the COVID-19 pandemic, information and communications technologies have become not only a crucial tool for combating the virus, but also     10     engine for economic recovery.

9 . For many parents, raising a teenager is like fighting a long war, but years go by without any clear winner. Like a border conflict between neighboring countries, the parent-teen war is about boundaries: Where is the line between what I control and what you do?

Both sides want peace, but neither feels it has any power to stop the conflict. In part, this is because neither is willing to admit any responsibility for starting it. From the parents’ point of view, the only cause of their fight is their adolescents’ complete unreasonableness. And of course, the teens see it in exactly the same way, except oppositely. Both feel trapped.

In this article, I’ll describe three no-win situations that commonly arise between teens and parents and then suggest some ways out of the trap. The first no-win situation is quarrels over unimportant things. Examples include the color of the teen’s hair, the cleanliness of the bedroom, the preferred style of clothing, the child’s failure to eat a good breakfast before school, or his tendency to sleep until noon on the weekends. Second, blaming. The goal of a blaming battle is to make the other admit that his bad attitude is the reason why everything goes wrong. Third, needing to be right. It doesn’t matter what the topic is—politics, the laws of physics, or the proper way to break an egg—the point of these arguments is to prove that you are right and the other person is wrong, for both wish to be considered an authority—someone who actually knows something—and therefore to command respect. Unfortunately, as long as parents and teens continue to assume that they know more than the other, they’ll continue to fight these battles forever and never make any real progress.

Recently     1     internet slang word Foxi, or “Buddhist”, has become popular, encouraging young people to remain calm and peaceful and avoid conflict as much as possible, in other words, to live like a Buddha.

The phrase     2     (create) in Japan in 2014 to describe young men who no longer bother to start relationships with women or follow someone else’s life path. They prefer to stay in their own world without     3     (disturb) and care little about passion and success.

Now, Chinese Internet     4     (use) are pairing the phrase with other words to describe a similar mindset. For example, “Buddhist students” are those     5     study just the right amount — they don’t cut class, but they don’t burn the midnight oil, either. However, some are worried about it, for they say that Foxi actually reflects the     6     (real) that young people are losing their will     7     (fight). They are pretending to keep a healthy and wise attitude toward failure     8     (simple) because they’re incapable of succeeding.

But no matter what, there is one thing that “Buddhist youngsters” should keep     9     mind: you may want to keep a calm mindset regarding failure,     10     you should also be passionate and positive about school, work and life.
