In December 2020, "the Super Apple" appeared at supermarkets across China,sweeter and juicier than usual ones,without pesticide residue(农药残留).Before reaching the market,the products had been tested over 500 times.Blockchain(区块链) technology in recording farmers' actions is widely used to avoid nonstandard pesticide use.Digital technology at the apple storage helps to group apples,which can keep the stability(稳定性) in the quality. "The future of agriculture lies in the modern technology." Huang Jikun,Professor of the China Centre for Agricultural Policy at Peking University,told Beijing Review.
At China's Central Rural Work Conference in 2020,President Xi stressed that efforts must be made to increase the quality of agriculture.Xi also pointed out the importance of speeding up technologies.
China's agriculture has entered a stage of high﹣quality development,as the country is meeting people's increasing need for high standard products.So agriculture should turn to technology.
Three years ago,Yuan Longping led a program of planting rice in saline﹣alkali(盐碱) soil in areas,including Xinjiang and Heilongjiang.Through hybrid technology,Yuan's team have been able to raise improved rice for saline and alkaline soils.If China could put 6.67 million hectares of saline﹣alkali soil into rice production,it would be very likely to increase by around 30 million tons,a huge contribution to the country.
In Lushui,Yunnan Province,one can rarely see farmers working on the farm.All common tasks are completed automatically(自动化地).Data(数据) is gathered by the system to improve future production.
"More information and technology centres will be built so that basic data and big data can be improved,and technologies like 5 G and the BeiDou Satellite Navigation System can be used in the field."said Han Fujun,Deputy Chief Engineer of the Information Center of MARA.
Since 2010,the Chinese government has been organizing technology exchanges,training,field trips and other activities for the agricultural technology talents to better understand the situations of each area.
Because of the COVID﹣19,companies begin to rethink better agricultural models,as more people want to eat healthier foods.Science and technology will play a more important role in the future.

According to UNESCO,a large number of children in villages in some African countries like Kenya and Tanzania do not go to school.They have to work to make money for their family.And more than half of people in these countries live without electricity.
A company is now working to solve both of these problems.It has created a special solar(太阳的)power station,which is in the shape of a cow,called"Solar Cow".The company encourages parents in those poor villages to send their children to school by setting up Solar Cows at schools.
Just as its name suggests,the Solar Cow can charge batteries(给电池充电)called"Solar Milks".The Solar Milks provide electricity for the families.
The batteries can only be charged using the Solar Cow,so children have to go to school to get the electricity.Everyday,children put their batteries into the bottom of their school's Solar Cow.
They go to class while the batteries are being charged.At the end of the day,they take the charged batteries home.
Each fully﹣charged Solar Milk battery can charge a mobile phone three or four times,or a radio once or twice.The battery is also a flashlight,and it can provide ten hours of light."My father used to travel two to three hours to the charging shop to charge his phone,and it cost a lot," a boy said. "But now,he can use the battery I bring from school to charge his phone at home."
Since 2018,this company has set up two Solar Cows in Kenya and one in Tanzania.The company also started to raise money for more Solar Cows to help the poor children in Africa.

"Colour" and "color", "favourite" and "favorite", "honour" and "honor"…Have you ever wondered why Americans spell those words without a "u"?Is it because they are lazy?
Of course not.In fact,the difference in spelling was started by Noah Webster(1758﹣1843).He was a teacher who reformed(改革)English to make American identity(特征)stronger.Linguists(语言学家)celebrate his birthday on October 16 every year.
After the Revolutionary War(1775﹣1783),Webster believed that Americans should have their own dictionary,rather than rely on British dictionaries.
He dropped the British "u" in some words.And he changed "centre" into "center" for children to learn English by spelling words more like what they sounded.He used "subway" instead of British word "underground".Some other examples are "soccer" and "football", "fall" and "autumn".
Webster wasn't shy about expressing his opinions.In defining(定义)preposterous (unreasonable),he wrote: "A republican government in the hands of female is preposterous."
Webster spent 28 years on the project before completing the 70,000﹣word dictionary with his American﹣style spelling in 1828.He also added local words.
His dictionary was widely used in schools.Linguists believed it helped a new country achieve unity(统一)and cultural independence at a time when most people cared about political freedom.
"He was the creator of our language and the creator of American identity," said Joshua Kendall,who is working on a book about Webster. "He at last brought us together through our language."
(1)Why do Americans spell some words without a "u"?
A.Because the Americans are very lazy.
B.Because the American English developed when people used it.
C.Because the American government reformed the spelling of words.
D.Because a linguist named Noah Webster started the reform in spelling.
(2)Which is NOT true about Webster's dictionary?
A.It has local words in it.
B.It is a 70,000﹣word dictionary.
C.All the words are spelled without "u".
D.Its words are in American﹣style spelling.
(3)What does the underlined phrase " rely on" in Paragraph 3 mean?
A.依赖.
B.信任.
C.容忍.
D.放弃.
(4)What do people think of Webster's dictionary?
A.It is the only dictionary that Americans still use today.
B.It helped to bring Americans together besides its cultural influence.
C.It has no influence on the development of American English.
D.It helped to make American English more useful than British English.
(5)What's the main idea of the passage?
A.The development of the British English.
B.American English is better than British English.
C.Noah Webster added local words to the dictionary.
D.Noah Webster wrote an American English dictionary and reformed English.

Food is a kind of culture.It's a nation's memory and pride.The famous French baguette (长棍面包) is one of their memories and prides.French people think it should be protected. "It is much more than just a kind of bread.It is a symbol of France—it's like the Eiffel Tower," said Dominigue Anract,president of the Confederation of French Bakers.
So it's no wonder that a group of French cooks want the baguette to become a form of intangible cultural heritage (非物质文化遗产) listed by UNESCO.French culture leaders have given a suggestion to the country's president.
UNESCO's intangible heritage list aims to protect culture from the influence of the world.Cooks in France believe that if the baguette is on the list,it will be better protected.The list already includes Belgian beer and Neapolitan pizza.
The baguette has been protected by law since 1993.The law says the bread must be made with only the following things:water,wheat flour,yeast and salt.The flour should be fermented (发酵) for 15 to 20 hours at a certain temperature.This strict rule makes the food special and delicious.
Six million baguettes are sold every day in France.However,as supermarkets continue to take over,tens of thousands of shops have closed since the 1950s. "The first thing we ask of a child is to go buy a baguette," Anract said. "We think it important to protect these habits."

Some children cannot wait to grow up.Because once you become an adult you are free to make your own decisions.More importantly you can do all those things that you cannot do now because you are too young.So the question is 'At what age do you really become an adult?' Well ,people become adults at different ages in different places.
In Australia the 18th birthday is a very important event for young Australians because it means they can do almost anything they want.They can vote (选举),learn to drive a car ,get married,join the army and even buy their own houses.Even if they can do all these things,most Australians have to wait until their 21st birthday to really celebrate becoming an adult.This is the traditional adult age in Australia and the USA and the UK.
Even though 21 is the traditional adult age in many English﹣speaking countries the law nowadays is different in each country.In the UK you can join the army at 16 and even get married at 16 if your parents allow.Young people in the UK can learn to drive a car at 17,although they have to wait until they are 18 to vote.
In China ,you can vote and learn to drive a car when you are 18,but if you want to get married,women have to wait until they are 18 and men until they are 22.Chinese people celebrate important birthdays every 10 years﹣﹣so when young people turn 20,they can expect a big party!
No matter what age you are,becoming an adult is really about learning how to be independent and responsible(负责任的).Once you are finally able to take care of yourselves and make your own decisions,then you can say that you are truly all grown﹣ups.

Shashiyu was once a poor village in Hebei Province,but now it has changed into a rich and livable place.
In the 1940s,villagers in Shashiyu had little food and few clothes,but they had a strong wish for a better life.Zhang Guishun,the Party secretary of Shashiyu,encouraged his villagers to do their best to pull themselves out of poverty. "In the ancient Chinese story,Yu Gong could move mountains with his strong will and hard work,why can't we?Nobody was born to be poor?" Hearing his words,the villagers decided to make a difference.
Led by the Communist Party of China(中国共产党),the villagers carried water and soil to their village from faraway places to improve their land.From 1966 to.1971,they reclaimed(开垦)lots of land and greatly improved their life.

In 2009,the city﹣level government invested over 1 million yuan($152,723)to change the village's exhibition hall into a museum in memory of development efforts made by earlier generations.
After 10 years,the village was called "National Forest Village".
Zhang said that the village started a yearly tourism festival in 2015 to attract travelers to pick grapes. "The grapes could be sold at a better price once Shashiyu becomes famous through this festival.Our villagers can then live even better lives, "he said.

It is probably no exaggeration (夸张) to say that, these days, anyone who uses WeChat or QQ also uses memes. (1) Memes are usually pictures or GIFs (动图) of famous people, TV and film scenes. They are often paired with a line of words explaining the pictures.
You must have seen the memes of singer Huang Zitao with his famous words, "I will not die easily."(2) Others include actor Zhou Jie shouting with anger and basketball player Yao Ming laughing but looking like crying. If there is something in common with these people, it is probable that they all have exaggerated facial expressions. Users make memes of them for fun.
On the other hand, memes make online messaging chatting closer to real life than just sending text messages. (3) For some people, like youth, they can chat online only using memes without typing a single word. Sometimes this turns into a kind of competition to see who has the most or the funniest memes. (4) Do you want to have a try, too?
A. Huang's memes are one of the users' favorites. B. Memes or biaoqingbao have become important in online chatting (聊天) among Chinese. C. If they are tired of the popular ones, they can make their own memes using meme apps. D. Because they give people information in a simpler, funnier and clearer way. |
(5)Which of the following is true according to the passage?
A. |
Memes play an important part in online chatting all over the world. |
B. |
All the people can chat on line without typing a single word. |
C. |
People can only use popular memes even though they feel bored of them. |
D. |
D Users make memes of famous people for fun. |
You may know the English letters A, B and C. But do you know there are people called ABCs? You may like eating bananas.But do you know there are such people with the name of "banana persons"? Are these people from "another planet (星球)"? No. They are just Chinese people like you and me.
ABC means American﹣born﹣Chinese. An ABC is a Chinese, but was born in the United States. Sometimes, people call an ABC a "banana person". A banana is yellow outside and white inside. So, a "banana person" is white inside ﹣﹣ thinking like a westerner and yellow outside ﹣﹣ looking like a Chinese.
Do you know why? Usually, ABCs know little about China or Chinese language. Most of them don't speak Chinese. Also, they are not interested in Chinese politics (政治). But if ABCs can't speak Chinese. can we still call them Chinese people? Yes, of course. They are Chinese. They are overseas (海外的) Chinese. These people may be citizens (公民) of other countries like the US, Canada or Singapore. But they have Chinese blood. Their parents, grandparents or even great﹣grandparents were from China. They all have black eyes and black hair. But they are not Chinese citizens. They are not people of China. For example, we all know the famous scientist C.N. Yang (杨振宁).
