At the end of 1978, China put forward a package of new thoughts on national development. The most important of them was to shift the priority of the nation to economic development, which has since become the central task of CPC organizations and governments at all levels. Economic growth was the primary measurement of the development of a region and performance of an official. It became national agreement that economic growth offered the solution to the problems facing China. Seeing that manufacturing was a strong promoter of economic growth, China's central and local governments put great emphasis on it. But in the 1970s, 1980s and early 1990s the country was short of money to build up this capital-intensive (资本密集) sector, which requires buying equipment and land, building factories, and hiring workers. It therefore looked to foreign investors who were looking for opportunities in the Chinese market. Foreseeing the multiple benefits of foreign investment including tax contribution, job creation, raise in local income, local governments raced to look for foreign capital. To compete against their peers, some regions offered extra favorable policies like tax cuts or breaks, discounted land prices or even free land. Some even went to the extent of lowering or abandoning environmental protection requirements. While going after foreign investors, regional governments also struggled to seek domestic banks for loans to local enterprises. Meanwhile, they set up their own financing platforms to raise funds for local manufacturing and infrastructure (基础设施) to stimulate economic growth. These efforts paid off. The economy rose rapidly all over the country, with few regions reporting GDP growth rate below 10 percent. A series of new infrastructure was completed, and manufacturing sprang in both rural and urban areas. But the side effects soon came up. The supply of low-priced or even free land to foreign investors led to a sharp rise in land development for industrial projects and a steep fall in farmlands. Realizing these problems, China began to correct its neglect of other aspects during the pursuit of economic growth. 【1】What central task did the Chinese government advocate in 1978? A.Environmental protection. B.Economic growth. C.Manufacture promotion. D.Capital accumulation. 【2】How did China solve the capital problem? A.By loaning money from foreign banks. B.By selling equipment and land. C.By seeking foreign investors. D.By raising funds from the public. 【3】Which of the following statements is True? A.China's economy experienced ups and downs. B.Foreign investment was a win-win policy. C.GDP growth in many regions was below 10 %. D.Policies were adopted for better environment. 【4】What can be the best title for the text? A.China's Problems in Promoting Economy B.China's Policy in Foreign Investment C.China's Success in Fighting Against Poverty D.China's Efforts in Economic Development |

Cala didn’t like us. Any of us. We didn’t do anything to offend her and she didn’t know us but that didn’t matter; she still didn’t like us. As new teachers in the Emirati school, we Westerners greeted her every day. She ignored us. She came into our rooms and bypassed us as she shook hands with all the non-Westerners.

China Science Daily announced Thursday that it has used software to automatically generate news stories about the latest discoveries from the world’s leading science journals. The robot science reporter, called “Xiaoke”, was co-created by the newspaper and researchers from Peking University in about half a year. It is the latest case of Chinese news organizations using computer technology to create content. According to its inventors, Xiaoke has generated over 200 stories based on the English abstract of papers published in journals such as Science, Nature, Cell and the New England Journal of Medicine. Before publication, the automatically generated articles will go through a review process. A group of scientists and the newspaper’s editors will check the content or give supplementary (补充的) information. Zhang Mingwei, head of the program and vice editor-in-chief of the newspaper, said inventors would make Xiaoke a “cross-linguistic (跨语言的) academic secretary” to help Chinese scientists overcome language barriers and have easy and quick access to the latest scientific advances in English-language publication. Lead researcher Wan Xiaojun, of Peking University in charge of the system’s design and technology, stressed that the content generation tool could do far more than translation. According to Wan, Xiaoke is good at selecting complex words and sentences, which can help turn articles full of confusing technical terms into easy and readable news reports. The readers of the robot reporter is not limited to professionals but also includes the general public. Science reporting is important in spreading information about discoveries and in popularizing knowledge to people. 【1】What can we learn about “Xiaoke”? A.It is a professional translator. B.It has the most advanced AI. C.It can make up fiction stories. D.It generates science news reports. 【2】What do people need to do to improve Xiaoke’s work? A.Upgrade the artificial intelligence. B.Select complex words and sentences. C.Check the content and add information. D.Help it get the latest scientific advances. 【3】In which section of a newspaper may this text appear? A.Science. B.Education. C.Entertainment. D.Health. 【4】What is the text mainly about? A.The robot writer of science news. B.The readers of the science reports. C.The editor-in-chief of the newspaper. D.The latest case of news organizations. |

Supporting Others We’re always being told that the secret to happiness lies in helping others, Indeed, it’s natural to want to support those we care about, especially if we are in a position to do so. 【1】 When we offer support, it may not always be wanted. 【2】 In this case, offering support in the manner of “... if l were you, I would …” can feel like a scolding rather than support. If our support feels conditional, it can feel burdensome. 【3】 When someone is trying to manage illness or a house move, just saying, “What would help you today?” can be amazingly supportive. Or, suggest what you can do for them: picking up some shopping, taking the dog for a walk. Even if it’s not needed, just knowing you’ve been thought of can be supportive in itself. Try to be mindful of offering support that is disabling, rather than enabling. My son, when aged five, wanted to make a cup of tea. I could see how inspiring it was to him to be able to do this. So I filled the kettle and took him through the safety measures. It felt like a huge risk but it worked. His pleasure was immeasurable. The same principle applies when we offer support that increases someone else’s capacity.【4】 Sometimes the only support that’s needed is to listen without judgement. 【5】 This reassures (使安心) them that someone cares enough to listen while they ground themselves. When times are tough, remember to keep things stable. Waiting until the storm has passed is all it takes. Support often works best when it’s a two-way process. It is good to know how to accept help from others as well as offer support to them. A.Walk alongside someone and make comments. B.Come up with a couple of ideas for your friends. C.Ask what support is needed and provide a practical one. D.This can often be a bigger gift than just doing it for them. E.But we can do more by thinking about the support we offer. F.Sometimes people arc trying to manage life in their own way. G.Just be there, occasional while someone lets out their feeling. |
