• 1．Following are this week （November 15-21）'s best home entertainment programs：from Sorry for Your Loss to The Cry!
     Dancing Queen
     Considering how many outstanding dancing queens appear on RuPaul's Drag Race each season，it's strange that so few have been given their own series.Correcting that is this reality show centred on a dance studio for teen girls run by Justin Johnson，AKA season five queen Alyssa Edwards.Expect battles with pushy mums and exciting moments for Johnson's beginners.
  Tuesday 16 November，8pm，Netflix

  Friday 19 November，9pm，BBC One
     The Apprentice
     Some of Alan Sugar's early Apprentices must be approaching retirement age by now.But never fear，it seems there's always a lot of business people willing to compete for the chance to win a working lifetime of it.
  Sunday 21 November，8pm，ITV
     Sorry for Your Loss
     You read that right：Facebook enters peak-era TV with this Elizabeth Olsen-starring comedy about a woman dealing with her husband's passing away.As that introduction suggests，it's tightly written with strong twists and turns from Olsen and The Last Jedi's Kelly Marie Tran as her sister.Plus，in keeping with this week's Guide，all of it is free!

• 2．I used to hate being called upon in class mainly because I didn't like attention drawn to myself.And unless assigned （指定） a seat by the teacher，I always chose to sit at the back of the classroom.
     All this changed after I joined a sports team.It began when a teacher suggested I try out for the basketball team.At first I thought it was a crazy idea because I didn't have a good sense of balance，nor did I have the ability to keep pace with the others on the team and they would laugh at me.But for the teacher who kept insisting on my "going for it"，I wouldn't have decided to give a try.
     Getting up the courage to go to the tryouts （選拔賽） was only the half of it!Luckily，I passed them.When I first started attending the practice sessions，I didn't even know the rules of the game，much less what I was doing.Sometimes I'd get confused and take a shot at the wrong direction—which made me feel really stupid.Thank God，I wasn't the only one "new" at the game，so I decided to focus on learning the game，do my best at each practice session，and not be too hard on myself for the things I didn't know "just yet".
     I practiced and practiced.Soon I knew the rules and the "moves".Being part of a team was fun and encouraging.Very soon the competitive part in me was winning over my lack of confidence.With time，I learned how to play and made friends in the progress—friends who respected my efforts to work hard and be a team player.I never had so much fun!
     With my improved self-confidence comes more praise from teachers and classmates.I have gone from "hiding" in the back of the classroom and not wanting to call attention to myself，to raising my hand—even when I sometimes wasn't and not 100 percent sure I had the right answer.Now，I have more self-confidence in myself.Every time I come across a challenge，my teacher's "going for it" rings in my ears.
  
  （1）What made the author decide to join a basketball team？

  
  A．His teacher's encouragement.
  B．His determination to change.
  C．His desire to show himself off.
  D．His love for team cooperation.
  （2）Before attending the practice sessions，players must

  .
  A．pass the tryouts
  B．know what they will do
  C．have enough courage
  D．learn the rules in advance
  （3）From the last paragraph，what has happened to the boy？

  
  A．He has got more praise and become overconfident.
  B．He has continued to sit in the back of the classroom.
  C．He is willing to answer questions in class now.
  D．He focuses more on study rather than basketball.
  （4）What does the author want to tell us in the passage？

  
  A．Team spirit can teach us a lot.
  B．Practice makes perfect.
  C．Go for it，and we will make it.
  D．Desire to compete does matter.

• 3．Navigating （導(dǎo)航） in China is easy and convenient — if you can read Chinese.Baidu and Alibaba offer fully featured map apps with detailed information，but foreigners have little access （通道；機(jī)會） to it.
     "As a foreigner who can't read Chinese characters，I noticed there was this hole，" said Jason Stine，a software engineer from the US，in an interview with the Charming China podcast.To fill that hole，he created his own app，called Lost Laowai.
     Stine，31，has lived in cities around China for seven years.He says people who can't read Chinese are "a drop in the bucket （滄海一粟）" for companies like Tencent and Alibaba.There aren't enough of these people for English versions of their apps to make economic sense.So Stine made one himself. "It's essentially a translation of Alibaba Maps，" he said.
     "The idea was to put everything into three forms.Chinese characters，pinyin...and then the English translation." Also useful，it gives directions for city buses，one of the most difficult things for foreigners in China.
     Although the app is useful，Stine says that it looks a bit "amateur （業(yè)余的）". "I don't have an app development background，" he adds， "I am self-taught."
     Stine has a full-time job with a Hong Kong company，so Lost Laowai is a weekend project.He depends on his user community，a WeChat group where users can report bugs and request features.
     These lost laowais may be there to report bugs，but they are enthusiastic users of the app. "As someone actively trying to learn Mandarin，I...like the way the address is showed：Chinese characters，Pinyin，and English，" said Kevin Mulligan，a South African living in Shenzhen.
     Lisa Schooling，from the US，has used the app in Suzhou and says it gives her a sense of safety. "I just like the feel that no matter where I am，I can check the app and gain a sense of direction，" said Schooling.
  
  （1）What does the underlined phrase "this hole" in paragraph 2 refer to？

  
  A．Foreigners find it difficult to learn Chinese.
  B．Chinese road conditions need to be improved.
  C．Foreigners can't understand Chinese navigating apps.
  D．Chinese navigating apps are too expensive for foreigners.
  （2）Which of the following best describes Jason Stine？

  
  A．Talented but selfish.
  B．Humorous but careless.
  C．Outgoing and brave.
  D．Creative and hard-working.
  （3）What do we know about the app Lost Laowai？

  
  A．It only has English translation form.
  B．It was created by Baidu and Alibaba.
  C．Its users have nowhere to report bugs.
  D．It can also direct foreigners to city buses.
  （4）Which can be the best title for the text？

  
  A．Helping Lost Laowai.
  B．How to Form a Sense of Direction.
  C．A US Engineer's Life in China.
  D．Foreigners：A Drop in the Bucket.

• 4．You are sitting in a restaurant and a server brings over a glass of water and drops a plastic straw （吸管） next to the glass.Any idea how many plastic straws are thrown away in the US everyday？Around 500 million!Plastic straws were the seventh most common type of litter found during beach cleanups this year!Last year，a diver diving in Australia collected 319 plastic straws in just 20 minutes.The next day，she returned to the same location and found another 294 straws.
     Very few single-use plastic straws are recycled.They break down into tiny bits of plastic，and are eaten by sea life.Luckily，thousands of people have gotten involved （參與） with the cause，including kids!
     In 2011，9-year-old Milo Cress made an interesting observation after ordering a drink of juice in a restaurant， "I noticed the servers automatically placed a plastic straw by my drink." Milo thought this was a real waste and thought there had to be something he could do about it.Milo talked with plastic producers to get an estimate of just how many straws we use.He learned that 500 million plastic straws are used every day!This inspired him to start a project called Be Straw Free.Milo encouraged restaurants not to hand straws out so freely. "Actually，" remembers Milo， "businesses liked the idea as it would save them money."
     Milo was one of many kids to become involved with the cause.Earlier this year，a group of third-and-fourth-graders from Seattle，Washington，spoke with local lawmakers about the harm plastic straws have on sea life and our environment.The group，calling themselves the Straw Kids，would like cities to ban their use，and would like other kids to rethink the use of single-use plastic straws.Megan O'Reilly，9，says， "We are making a website，strawkids.jye.ai，which will help us get the word out that plastic straws are bad，and help us get more supporters."
  
  （1）The data in paragraph 1 is used to show

  .
  A．divers enjoy doing beach cleanups
  B．restaurants always provide plastic straws
  C．plastic straws are causing an environmental problem
  D．Australia's environment is getting worse and worse
  （2）What did restaurants think of Milo's project？

  
  A．It was unacceptable.
  B．It was difficult to carry out.
  C．It was quite effective.
  D．It was favorable to their business.
  （3）Which of the following best describe Milo？

  
  A．Intelligent and sensitive.
  B．Caring and humorous.
  C．Creative and responsible.
  D．Courageous and demanding.
  （4）What can we learn from the Straw Kids' story？

  
  A．One good turn deserves another.
  B．One is never too young to change.
  C．Kids can also make a difference.
  D．Kids should be prepared for the future.

     Voice
     （4）

     Goodbye
     At the end of the interview，smile，shake the interviewer's hand and thank them for their time，while maintaining eye contact the whole time.Also，say how interested you are in the position. （5）

  Even if the interviewer appears cold and distant，it doesn't mean they don't like you.So，always leave on a positive note （語氣）.
  
  A.While sitting，you need to appear relaxed.
  B.Try to avoid guessing what they think of you.
  C.There are lots of things to remember and prepare.
