“Military-style” travel has become the     1     (late) fashion among Chinese college students. Videos of them taking such trips     2     (trend) on social media platforms in recent years. The reason why it has become so popular is     3     college students can spend as little money as possible traveling to as many places as they can during the weekend. They usually hop on a regular-speed train on a Friday night, arrive at the destination city and travel     4     (extensive) there on Saturday. Then, they can repeat the same busy schedule     5     returning to their universities on Monday morning.

Different people have different views, with some netizens     6     (praise) these college students for their high ability to implement their plans. However, others doubt     7     such a tight schedule is healthy.

According to some experts, the “military-style” travel is a form of budget travel appealing to specific groups of people who are less     8     (concern) with in-depth experiences and more focused on checking off popular tourist destinations. Therefore, this has led to the emergence of a type of tourism     9     travelers are willing to sacrifice comfort for     10     (affordable) and convenience.

For some people in China, the aim of travel is to create 15-second videos. It’s not about where you’ve been, but about where you’re seen to have been.

Situated on cliffs above a river, Hongyadong is a stilt house complex (建筑群) in     1    city of Chongqing. The bars, restaurants and golden neon lights    2     (be) a popular draw since it was built in 2006. Last year the number of visitors increased    3    (sharp).

The main reason, it seemed, was Hongyadong’s sudden popularity on an app, Douyin,     4    aim is not to produce a well-crafted video, but simply    5    (show) that you have also been to the popular places. The beauty of the    6    (attract) is less important than the fact that people are flocking there to daka.

A subculture of young people who embrace daka as a lifestyle has developed. So-called daka Zu—“daka tribes”—can    7    (find) roaming various scenic spots, checking out as many hot locations    8    possible within a single day.

The daka craze may have    9    (practice)origins. China’s young urban professionals don’t have so much free time. Sometimes, they need to work overtime. So they have to make the best use of their    10    (limit) leisure time. Douyin captures the mood with its slogan.“ Make every second count.”

Recently, an Internet slang word foxi - or “Buddhist” - is becoming increasingly popular as it encourages people, especially     1     young to remain calm and peaceful and avoid conflicts as much as possible - in other words, to live like a Buddha.

The word     2     (create) for the first time in 2014 in Japan to describe young men     3     no longer bother to start relationships with women or follow someone else’s life path. They prefer to stay in their own peaceful world without     4     (disturb) and care little about passion and success.

In this fast-changing and competitive world, many people are     5     heavy pressure. It’s only natural that people are seeking a spiritual bay.

However, some would compare “foxi” with “demotivational (无动力的) culture”- a phrase that describes young people feeling     6     (aim) and incapable. They say that foxi actually reflects the reality that young people are losing their will to fight. They are pretending     7     (keep) a healthy and wise attitude towards     8     (fail) simply because they have no ability to succeed.

All in all, there is one thing that “Buddhist Youngsters” should     9    (basic) keep in mind: You may want to keep a calm mindset,     10     you should never stop fighting for yourselves!

In the past a gentleman would offer his seat to a lady on a     1     (crowd) bus. But now, he will probably look out of the window or hide behind his newspaper,    2    (leave) the lady standing     3     someone else gets off. Some ladies still feel they have no choice but     4     (blame) the rude man. But time is changing. You can’t entirely blame men for this change in manners. The days are gone when women could     5     (refer) to as the weak. A whole generation has grown up demanding     6    (equal) with men in jobs, in education and in social life. Hold a door for some women,     7     you are likely to get     8     angry lecture on treating women as weaklings (弱者). Take a girl out for a meal and she’ll probably insist on paying     9     share of the bill. All these, according to some sociologists, will change men’s attitude towards women and the traditional politeness is perhaps slowly being     10     (replace) by true consideration for the needs and feelings of women, so that men can see women as equal human beings.

Celebrities（名人）like Olivia Munn, as well as fashion companies like Cucci and Versace , are among those who have been opposed     1     wearing animal fur. Now, San Francisco has become the    2    (large) city in the USA to ban retailers from selling new fur to their customers.

The ban aims to send     3       strong message to the fur industry     4     the cruelty these animals endure for the purpose of     5     (become) clothing is not consistent with the value of the city.

As we all know, West Hollywood became the first American city     6    （forbid ）the sale of new fur items in 2011, and Berkeley passed a ban on the sale of fur clothing in 2017. Additionally, in 2000, the UK led the charge(打头阵 ),     7     (follow) by Australia in 2004. More recently, the Netherlands, the European Union’s main producer of fur , banned fur farming in 2012 and plans to end mink(貂) farming by 2024. In 2018, Norway banned fur farms and     8    (end) fox and mink farming by 2025.

Hopefully, only when efforts like these are made to encourage     9     (consume) to stop buying real animal fur     10     the lives of animals be further protected all over the world.

More and more public schools in America make it a rule that students must finish a certain amount of community service     1    they are allowed to graduate from high school. They work on projects like making the environment better or     2     (feed) homeless people.

Many school systems in the United States now ask students     3    (do) some kinds of community service as part of their studies. Students involved in service projects help     4    (they) as well as their communities. They learn about the needs of people and aid     5    (organize).For this reason, holidays     6    (become) the prime period for volunteer work so far. Volunteers get no pay, but experts point out that it is     7     excellent opportunity to learn and practice new skills.

According to the statistics, more than 60% of young Americans have participated    8    different kinds of community service, such as cooking for homeless people, or painting old buildings, etc. Some students like to do their volunteer work in     9    (centre) parts of America, but the majority of teens prefer to do it in their hometowns. Tom, a 16-year-old middle school student in California, often    10    (do) community service in a local hospital. He works 16 hours every week either receiving calls at the information desk, or helping push patients back to their wards(病房).
