Dear Alex,
When I was 15,my voice changed.My classmates said I sounded like a duck,and it made me really sad.Now,I don't feel like talking much,and I really want my old voice back.What can I do about this?
Daniel
Dear Daniel,
It's not nice being laughed at.But try not to be too sensitive(敏感的) about your voice breaking.It's a natural change and something many people go through.
You should be proud of the changes your body is going through,not embarrassed.Puberty(青春期) is a natural process everybody experiences.Maybe have a talk with one of your parents if you want to understand more about what this means.Your voice changing is only a small part of the process.You will probably get through this part quickly and in no time your voice will be strong and stable(沉稳的).

"For every minute of breathing, 60 seconds pass."
Nonsense? Yes. These sentences look like they make sense, but they actually express no useful information. It's a recent Internet sentence — making craze (热潮) called "nonsense literature (废话文学)".
"Nonsense literature" was originally invented by Internet users to make fun of the empty and useless writing style often used by media and some widely known people. Like any good Internet joke, it became a popular word game. Plenty of "nonsense" has been created. "Every time I don't know what to say, I don't know what to say." "Listening to your words is like listening to words."
Some even said that famous writers like Lu Xun used the style. Repetition in writing is not necessarily "nonsense literature". Lu Xun's writing on the jujube tree comes from a piece of his prose. If you have read it, as well as understand his time of writing, you will find these repeated lines are powerful, showing that the author was disappointed because of the social reality.
Internet crazes like "nonsense literature" might make you laugh for a while. But they will soon disappear. Don't throw yourself into it. Read some real literature. It will help us stop talking nonsense.

Ladies and gentlemen,I returned to this year in a time machine.In the year 2500,we are able to travel through time to any year in the history of the earth.This year is your last chance to change your lifestyle to save the earth.
Beginning in the middle of the 20th century,a few people were worried about polluting the earth's water and air,but most people did not change their way of life.Instead,they continued to pour(倒) dangerous chemicals(化学物品) and other waste into lakes and seas,to drive more and more cars and trucks,and to cut down trees.
By the year 2200,the earth's water was completely polluted.People could no longer drink water,and they had to use other types of liquids(液体).Scientists said that in the future there might be too many people on the earth.But not enough was done.
So by the year 2300,there were so many people that food was not enough.There was no water to grow food and all of the fish in lakes and seas died because of pollution.Terrible wars broke out between the rich and the poor.Scientists were working very hard to find another planet in space where humans could live on.
By the year 2400,the air was too polluted for humans to breathe.So we had to leave the earth.But only the rich were able to leave.Where did we go?Nowhere.You see scientists did not find another safe planet,so now we must travel around the universe in our space ships.We are still looking for a place to call our home.
So it is up to you to change history.There is still hope.You must change your lifestyle now,before it is too late.

Dear Alex,
When I was 15,my voice changed.My classmates said I sounded like a duck,and it made me really sad.Now,I don't feel like talking much,and I really want my old voice back.What can I do about this?
Daniel
Dear Daniel,
It's not nice being laughed at.But try not to be too sensitive(敏感的) about your voice breaking.It's a natural change and something many people go through.
You should be proud of the changes your body is going through,not embarrassed.Puberty(青春期) is a natural process everybody experiences.Maybe have a talk with one of your parents if you want to understand more about what this means.Your voice changing is only a small part of the process.You will probably get through this part quickly and in no time your voice will be strong and stable(沉稳的).

The topic of cooking was discussed mostly by parents and students. Learning practical skills plays an important role in shaping a person's character for sure.
Some schools and students have already practiced their practical activities. Gu Quan, 13 years old, from No.18 Middle School, used to be a lazy boy. In his own words, he hardly ever did any housework. But things have changed since No.18 Middle School made housework part of its students' homework. Doing the dishes, cooking and making the bed... All of these tasks have become part of Gu Quan's daily life.

The tasks are common and simple in daily life, such as sweeping the floor, washing cups and cooking food. On holidays like Mother's Day, students should prepare presents for their mothers. Huang Yixi, 14, has learned several life kills, including cooking. "I used to be afraid of fire," she said. But she managed to overcome (克服) her fear and complete her cooking tasks.

2.(2023-2024上·安徽省合肥市·期末考试) Usually, we only think about our relationships with other humans. Have we ever thought more about our relationship with animals? Have we ever thought about how animals feel?
Richard Louv is a writer. He wrote a new book called Our Wild Calling: How Connecting With Animals Can Change Our Lives — And Save Theirs. In the book, Louv says that animals have the feelings just like humans. Also, he especially mentions that people need to have a stronger connect ion with animals.
In Louv's opinion, people spend a lot of time looking at screens nowadays. They do online shopping, watch online movies and check online emails. They can do almost everything online. Then, people are less connected to animals or to nature and Louv thinks it is the reason why people have "human loneliness". Human loneliness is a kind of feeling when people feel lonely and it is bad for people's health.
Louv thinks people need to return to nature. People can keep pets. Louv says our relationship with animals is deep. It's more than shared DNA. People can try to protect animals. It's part of how humans protect themselves. In his book, Louv says people need to change how they interact (互动) with nature.
What's the true meaning of this book? Well, it asks us to rethink our relationship with nature.

3.(2023-2024上·安徽省合肥市·期末考试) Volunteering is a great way to bring positive change to people, communities and society in general. The word "volunteering" started being used in the 18th century when people were willingly joining the military (军事) service. Today, the word is not so much connected with the military service, but with community service.
Official (正式的) organized volunteering appeared in the 19th century and became more popular in the 20th century. And the biggest development in volunteering was brought by the Internet. Organizations can reach people more easily online. Helpful platforms were raised, and more volunteer became interested when they found out about different opportunities.

Volunteering brings fun in our life. It is a fun and easy way to explore our interests and passions. Many people volunteer in order to make time for hobbies outside of work. For example, if a person has a desk job and long to spend time outdoors, he might consider volunteering to help plant a community garden, walk dogs for an animal shelter, or help out at a children's camp.
Volunteering can also be helpful for our careers (职业). If we are considering a new career, volunteering can help us got experience in other areas and meet people in the field.

This doesn't seem so bad. However, there are a lot of other costs behind the low price. It's clear that the fashion industry is terrible for the earth. It uses a lot of resources (资源) and pollutes the environment with waste.
Fashion is one of the least sustainable (可持续的) industries. We have all become our own waste, collecting fashion waste in our homes. It doesn't just take up space but also ends up in landfills (垃圾场). Three out of every five pieces of clothing are sent to landfills. Luckily, second-hand clothing is becoming popular. The reason is that it's cheaper. More and more people choose to buy second-hand clothing. The value of the second-hand market may reach $80 billion by 2029, an increase of 185% compared to the value at present.
In fact, there is still an even better choice. It's not to shop at all. Making full use of what you have already had is the best choice of shopping.

8.(2023-2024上·安徽省安庆市·期末考试)Nowadays, a new method is used to decide who are the top students in school. The best students are those who not only get high marks, but also follow the rules and the behavior standards(行为标准)for middle school students. Here are some of the new rules and standards.
Tell the truth. Have you ever copied someone else's work on an exam? If you have, then don't do it again! That's not something an honest student should do. If you have played computer games for two hours in your room, don't tell your parents you were doing homework.
Learn to work together with others. It would be more fun when more people work together. Did you fight with your teammates when your basketball team lost? Only working together can make your team stronger. Be friendly to the people you are with. Try to think of others instead of only yourself.
Be open to new ideas. Have you ever thought that people could live on the moon? Perhaps you'll discover Earth Ⅱ someday. Don't look down on new ideas. Everyone's ideas are important. You should welcome them, because new ideas make life better for everyone.
Use the Internet carefully. Some websites on the Internet aren't for kids, so make sure to visit the web pages that are good for you. You can visit the websites for fun or homework. Can't you find any good websites for children?

9.(2023-2024上·安徽省芜湖市·期末考试) "If you are not fat, you must be a thin man."
"For every minute of breathing, 60 seconds pass."
Nonsense? Yes. These sentences look like they make sense, but they actually express no useful information. It's a recent Internet sentence — making craze (热潮) called "nonsense literature (废话文学)".
"Nonsense literature" was originally invented by Internet users to make fun of the empty and useless writing style often used by media and some widely known people. Like any good Internet joke, it became a popular word game. Plenty of "nonsense" has been created. "Every time I don't know what to say, I don't know what to say." "Listening to your words is like listening to words."
Some even said that famous writers like Lu Xun used the style. Repetition in writing is not necessarily "nonsense literature". Lu Xun's writing on the jujube tree comes from a piece of his prose. If you have read it, as well as understand his time of writing, you will find these repeated lines are powerful, showing that the author was disappointed because of the social reality.
Internet crazes like "nonsense literature" might make you laugh for a while. But they will soon disappear. Don't throw yourself into it. Read some real literature. It will help us stop talking nonsense.
根据上面短文的内容回答问题 (每小题答案均不超过6个单词)。
(1) Who was "nonsense literature" originally invented by?
(2) Where does Lu Xun's writing on the jujube trees come from? (3) What can you do to help yourself stop talking nonsense?

If you don't deal with your garbage, all of it will go to a landfill(垃圾场) and be buried together. These landfills can take up large areas of ground. The electronic waste you throw away can pollute the soil and groundwater.
Shanghai announced the garbage classification(分类) in July. It says that garbage will be divided into recyclable waste, hazardous(有害的) waste, household waste(湿垃圾), and residual waste(干垃圾).
Paper, metal, glass and other things that can be reused are recyclable waste. Hazardous waste includes things like medicine, batteries and fluorescent bulbs(荧光灯泡). These things cannot be recycled. Household waste means things you don't want but that pigs can eat. Some waste such as plastic bags, beer bottles and other man-made things will go into the "residual waste" bin.
Many other Chinese cities, including Shenzhen, Guangzhou, Xi'an plan to use this way to deal with their garbage. If we pull together to deal with garbage, our cities will be cleaner and cleaner.

11.(2023-2024上·安徽省阜阳市·期末考试) Have you ever been sad because you failed in something? If so, please remember, for often, achieving what you expect is not the most important thing. Enjoy the process. Here is a story to tell you why.
One day a little boy named Jim decided to dig a hole behind his house after watching a science program. As he was working, a couple of boys stopped by to watch. "What are you doing?" asked one of the boys. "I want to dig a deep hole through the earth!" the boy answered excitedly. The older boys began to laugh, telling him that it was impossible to do it. After a while, they left without saying any more words.
The little boy kept on digging and digging. Suddenly, a few small colorful stones caught his eyes. He picked them up and put them into a glass box. Then he went on digging. The box was full soon. Then he talked to himself quietly and proudly, "Maybe I can't finish digging all the way through the earth, but look at what I have found in the process of digging!"
Not every job will end up with a success. And not every dream will come true. But maybe you can proudly say, "Yes, but look at what I've found along the way! There are so many wonderful things that have come into my life because I tried to do something!" So that's why there is a famous saying that the process is more important than the result.

12.(2023-2024上·安徽省黄山市·期末考试)Wukong,Tiangong,Tianwen …Do you know where the names of Chinese space programs come from?
Wukong,the Dark Matter Particle explorer satellite (暗物质粒子探测卫星),is named after Chinese superhero Monkey King.According to Journey to the West,Monkey King has a pair of sharp eyes which can tell the difference between good and evil.The Wukong satellite is just as sharp-eyed as Monkey King to help scientists search for dark matter in space.
Tiangong,the name of the space station,means "Heavenly Palace".In Chinese traditional folk stories,this is the home of Tian Di.Now Tiangong Space Station is a home for Chinese astronauts in space.And China welcomes foreign astronauts to Tiangong so that they can work together.
Tianwen,China's Mars missions(火星任务),gets its name from the poem Tianwen by Qu Yuan.Qu Yuan is a well-known poet from ancient China.In Tianwen,he raised questions about the sky,stars,nature,myths and the real world,showing his hunger for truth.Perhaps the Tianwen missions will end up answering some of Qu Yuan's questions.If you look into more names of Chinese space programs,you will find that they all have beautiful meanings.We,the Chinese people,have a long-cherished (珍藏已久的) space dream.So the naming of Chinese space programs is taken very seriously.

Ladies and gentlemen,I returned to this year in a time machine.In the year 2500,we are able to travel through time to any year in the history of the earth.This year is your last chance to change your lifestyle to save the earth.
Beginning in the middle of the 20th century,a few people were worried about polluting the earth's water and air,but most people did not change their way of life.Instead,they continued to pour(倒) dangerous chemicals(化学物品) and other waste into lakes and seas,to drive more and more cars and trucks,and to cut down trees.
By the year 2200,the earth's water was completely polluted.People could no longer drink water,and they had to use other types of liquids(液体).Scientists said that in the future there might be too many people on the earth.But not enough was done.
So by the year 2300,there were so many people that food was not enough.There was no water to grow food and all of the fish in lakes and seas died because of pollution.Terrible wars broke out between the rich and the poor.Scientists were working very hard to find another planet in space where humans could live on.
By the year 2400,the air was too polluted for humans to breathe.So we had to leave the earth.But only the rich were able to leave.Where did we go?Nowhere.You see scientists did not find another safe planet,so now we must travel around the universe in our space ships.We are still looking for a place to call our home.
So it is up to you to change history.There is still hope.You must change your lifestyle now,before it is too late.
