• 1．One day，a boy called Tom decided to give up his life.To this end，He went to the forest and had one last conversation with God.
     "God，can you give me a reason not to give up？" he asked.
     The god's answer surprised Tom： "look around，do you see those mountain ferns（山蕨） and bamboos？After I planted the seeds of mountain ferns and bamboos，I gave them light and water.Mountain ferns soon grew out of the ground，and dense（密集的） green leaves covered the ground.However，nothing grew out of bamboos."
     "The next year，the mountain fern grew more dense.The seeds of bamboo still didn't grow anything.Two years later，the seeds of bamboo still didn't germinate（發(fā)芽）."
     "However，in the fifth year，a small bud（芽）appeared on the ground.Compared with the mountain fern，it was very small.However，only six months later，the bamboo grew to 100 feet tall.It took five years to grow its roots，and the bamboo roots gave it everything it needed to live."
     God said to Tom， "son，the struggle you've been doing during this time is actually the time for you to grow roots.Don't compare yourself with others.Now，your time has come.
     Never regret which day in your life.Good days bring you happiness and bad days bring you experience.Both are necessary to life.Happiness makes you sweet，test makes you strong，failure makes you modest（謙虛的），success makes you shine.

• 3．In July，China introduced the "double reduction" policy.It hopes to reduce schoolwork burden（負擔(dān)） on primary and junior high school students.The policy calls for reducing homework and after-school classes.
     According to the policy，children below the third grade will not have homework anymore.It should take no more than 90 minutes for junior high school students to finish their homework.After-school training institutions（校外培訓(xùn)機構(gòu)） are not allowed to offer extra education courses or advanced（超前的） teaching on weekends，holidays or during winter and summer vacations.A few months have passed since the new semester began.How do students feel about this new policy？
     "Our homework is clearly less than before，" said 13-year-old Shen Yuzhe from Beijing. "We are not encouraged to buy workbooks anymore.The exercises are mainly from the textbook."
     According to Shen，students have enough time to process new knowledge now. "Our teachers are also giving us more chances to do experiments and learn from real life，" said Shen. "For example，we went to research earthworms（蚯蚓） in a field during a biology class.This is a much better way to learn things than just hitting the books."
     For 13-year-old Zhang Hangming from Tianjin，the best thing about "double reduction" is the increased time in after-school activities. "We can now spend more time taking part in clubs and activities such as dancing，volleyball and drama.I have joined a group called 'leadership development' where I can learn all kinds of skills beyond schoolwork，" said Zhang.
     Both Shen and Zhang find there are fewer exams now.But they think it's not necessarily a good thing. "Exams push me to study harder.Each exam shows my progress as well as my weak points，" Zhang said.
     Shen also pointed out that when burden is lightened，self-discipline（自律） becomes the key. "Some students now spend more time having fun when homework is finished early.But if you use all the free time to relax，you might fall behind other students，" he said.
  
  （1）The "double reduction" policy aims to

  .
  A．make vacations longer for students
  B．reduce the pressure put on teachers
  C．reduce students' schoolwork burden
  D．help students become more competitive
  （2）Which of the following is TRUE about the policy？

  
  A．Homework is not allowed for primary students.
  B．Junior high schools should reduce their homework.
  C．All after-school training institutions are asked to close.
  D．After-school training institutions should offer advanced teaching.
  （3）According to the "double reduction" policy，what kind of after-school classes CANNOT students take during vacations？

  
  A．Sports.
  B．Math.
  C．Public speaking.
  D．Computer programming.
  （4）Which of the following is NOT true about Shen Yuzhe and Zhang Hangming？

  
  A．They have less homework and fewer exams now.
  B．They can spend more time in after-school activities.
  C．They think the best thing is to have fewer exams now.
  D．They have more chances to learn knowledge from real life.
  （5）What do Shen and Zhang mainly want to tell us in the last two paragraphs？

  
  A．Students should learn to be self-discipline.
  B．Students should use all the free time to relax.
  C．Exams aren't necessary because they only show students' weak points.
  D．Students should spend more time having fun after finishing homework.

      The torch looks like two flying ribbons（絲帶） with two colors - red and silver.The red ribbon inside is like rising flames（火焰）.As the torch turns，the hidden red one seems to stretch（延伸） endlessly，showing people's love for brightness，peace，excellence and the values encouraged by the Olympic Movement.
      On the outside of the torch，we can see the Beijing 2022 emblem（徽章） and the Olympic rings on its central part，with patterns of clouds and snowflakes painted from the bottom up to the flame. （3）The two-color design（設(shè)計）stands force and fire，showing how it will bring light and warmth to the winter sports meeting.
  When talking about the inspiration（靈感） of the design，Li Jianye，the designer of the torch，shared more information."The torch will give us a feeling of continuous growth.I hope this design can pass on a message of lighting a fire of hope for the world."
      Sharing the same design，the torch for the 2022 Winter Paralympic（殘奧會）Games uses two colors：gold and silver.The design allows both torches to lock into（相扣） each other at the top when one person passes the flame to another during the torch relay. （4）It symbolizes Beijing 2022's good wishes to improve understanding and respect between different cultures.
      Using a burning system developed by the China Aerospace Science and Technology Corporation，the torch's flame can burn in all weather conditions，including strong winds and extremely low temperatures.
