Taking a bus or subway in the United States, you can often see people reading books on their way to school or work. But in China, I hardly ever see people reading during their free time.
Are people’s attitudes (态度) toward reading different here? Not really. Data (数据) from Amazon China in December 2017 show that Chinese people still read a lot. They just like e-books better than traditional books.
However, other data show that reading is still more popular in the US than in China. Is there a reason for this difference? I’m not sure. What I do know is that China has a rich history of literature from great Chinese literature like Romance of the Three Kingdoms (《三国演义》) to the modern science-fiction epic The Three-Body Problem (《 三 体 》). Chinese writers have created many wonderful written works.
Perhaps the difference starts from childhood. Reading textbooks and doing homework can make you feel quite tired. By the time you finish it, you might not feel like reading for fun. Chinese students have to read more and do more homework than US students. So that's why they might not want to read much in their free time.
But learning to love reading can be great. Reading can open doors to places, people and ideas that you cannot think of. Even just a small book has the magic to change your own personal thoughts and attitudes. Where will your next book take you?
【1】Americans often when they take a bus or subway.
A.work B.read C.sleep
【2】The difference in reading between China and the US may start when .
A.they are children B.they are teenagers C.they are old enough
【3】Why don't Chinese students want to read a lot in their free time?
A.Because the great Chinese literature is difficult to understand.
B.Because they spend too much time on textbooks and homework.
C.Because they might feel like reading textbooks for fun.
【4】We can learn in the last paragraph.
A.reading makes a full man
B.reading is the key to traveling
C.reading teaches you to play magic
【5】What can you infer from the passage?
A.Chinese students are busier with schoolwork than American students.
B.Amazon China is a famous book that Chinese people read a lot.
C.Traditional books are more popular among Chinese people.

Did you ever count the number of digits (数字) in your mobile phone number? Your number has 11 digits. You may sometimes find it hard to remember your number. That’s because China has the longest mobile phone numbers in the world. Why is that?
We can group the 11 digits into three parts. Each part has a different meaning. The first three numbers tell you which mobile phone service company you are using. For example, 135 is for the China Mobile Communications Corporation (中国移动) and 188 is for China Unicom (中国联通). The fourth to the seventh digits tell you where the number is registered (注册).For example, 0731 shows it is registered in Changsha, and 0733 shows it is registered in Zhuzhou. And the last four digits are random (随机的).
The main reason for using 11 digits is that we have the most people in the world. We once had 10 numbers. But as people grew more and more, there were not enough numbers for us to use. So we began to use 11 digits starting from 1999.
We can use eleven digits to make uncountable mobile phone numbers. That’s enough for each person to have seven or eight phone numbers to use in China.
What’s more, we can recycle mobile phone numbers. Usually, if someone doesn’t use the number any more, the service company will reuse the number after three to six months. If you didn’t call a number for a long time, you may find that the owner already changed.
Like China, Britain and Japan also use 11-digit mobile phone numbers. But their numbers always start with 0. So they cannot create as many numbers as we can. Countries like the United States, Australia and India use phone numbers with 10 digits. Canada’s mobile phone numbers are probably the world’s shortest: they use seven digits.
【1】When you see the phone number 13507336688 in China, you may get the following information EXCEPT (除了) .
A.the service company is China Mobile Communications Corporation
B.the last four digits 6688 tell us where the phone number comes from
C.the phone number is registered in Hunan
【2】China has the longest mobile phone number mostly because .
A.it is easy to group B.it has the most users in the world C.it makes difference with other countries
【3】The underlined word in paragraph 5 means .
A.循环利用 B.再次购买 C.彻底丢弃
【4】Which statement is NOT TRUE according to the passage?
A.Canada uses 7-digit mobile phone numbers.
B.Japan can create as many numbers as China with 11 digits.
C.We didn't use the 11-digit mobile phone number until 1999.
【5】What is the best title for the passage?
A.Mobile Phone Companies B.Different Meanings of Digits C.Longest Mobile Phone Numbers

A man died and was on his way to another world, either heaven (天堂) or hell (地狱). When he was halfway there, he saw a beautiful and huge palace. The owner came out and asked the man to stay and live in the palace.
The man said: “I always worked hard all my life. 【1】.
The owner of the palace said: “If so, there is nowhere else better than here for you. There is a lot of seafood and many other delicious foods in my palace. You can eat anything you want without anyone stopping you. And it’s sure that you need to do nothing.”
“That is great! This must be heaven!” said the man. And he lived comfortably in the palace without thinking too much.【2】 But day by day, he felt a bit lonely (孤独的) and bored.
So he went to the owner and said: “Just eating and sleeping every day is very boring. 【3】 Could you help me find a job?”
The owner replied: “Sorry, there are no jobs here at all.”
【4】“I really can’t stand this kind of life any more,” he said. “If you do not give me a job, I will choose to go to hell, because even going there is better than staying here!
The owner of the palace smiled. “Where do you think we are now?” he said. “Heaven? We are actually in hell!”

A. After another few months, the man could not stand it any more and went to the owner again.
B. At first, the man felt very happy with a life of eating and sleeping.
C. A few months later, the man felt bored and found himself a job.
D. And now I just want to eat and sleep without doing any work.
E. Now I’m losing interest in this kind of life.

James Blunt’s life was unexpected. The 44-year-old British singer became known to us all because of the song You’re Beautiful. Chinese fans have already got a taste of his live show, as he performed in Guangzhou, Shanghai and Beijing early last month.
However, you may know nothing about Blunt but music. Before taking up music as a job, Blunt once served in the British Army and got the rank of captain(上尉军衔). That’s why people call him the “captain poet”.
He served in the army known as Life Guards. What he had to do is to protect the royal (皇室) family on important days. He once joked that the most famous person he knew was Queen Elizabeth. He said: “I don’t have her personal phone number or anything, but I was with her a lot.”
Before becoming a captain, he also went to Kosovo(科索沃) to play a part in peacekeeping there. He took his guitar with him. “Wherever you are in the army, you take something to keep your life enjoyable. Some bring cards to play, some a football. I took a guitar,” Blunt told The Herald- Times.
His wartime experience drove him to write. When he was in Kosovo, he wrote the anti-war (反战) song No Bravery. Even to this day, he still speaks for the old soldiers, those who hurt (受伤) themselves during the war.
James Blunt’s music life started after he came back from war. From the terrible streets of Kosovo to the biggest live music halls in the world, Blunt has come a long way.

Almost every Chinese remembers the two sentences of the famous poem(诗 ). 65. “Every grain(粮) on the plate comes from hard work”. But sadly, many of us don’t get the real meaning of these sentences: Don’t waste food.
A CCTV program, News One Plus One, reported that food Chinese people waste every year is enough for 200 million(百万) people for a year.
Do we have too much food? No, according to the UN World Food Program, 66. there were 925 million hungry people around the world in 2010, especially in developing countries. Six million children die of hunger every year.
Chinese people are well known for being generous (慷慨的). Many even feel that they lose face if their guests eat all the food on the table.
67.幸运的是,很多人明白节约食物的重要性。Last November, Li Hong, a waitress in a restaurant in Nanjing, lost her job because she took some leftover (剩余的) food home for her son.
68.Many people agreed with her and said that it was not right to waste food.
What should we do in our daily lives to waste less food? Here is some advice:
1. Do not order too much in a restaurant. Only order what you want to eat. 69.如果你不能吃 完所有食物,把剩余的食物带回家。
2.Don’t be too picky(挑剔的) about food. Some food may not taste great. But your body needs it.
