I discussed it with the leader and we have made a great decision—a person from this economy class will be allowed to travel in the business class.”
The woman was very excited. But before she could say something, the air hostess moved towards the man and asked him, “Sir, will you please go to the business class?

Do you know about Bee & Flower? It was once a well-known hair care brand in China. Many brands like this have disappeared because young people don’t know about them. But recently, some old Chinese brands have made a comeback. It’s a good start, but there’s more to it.
In early September, anger over a makeup brand’s eyebrow pens (眉笔) lit up the Internet. Some people thought that they were too expensive as it cost 79 yuan to get three pens. Shortly after, Bee & Flower started to sell three large bottles of hair care products for the same price. It showed that Chinese products could still be cost-effective.
Many Chinese brands took their chance by selling through livestreaming (直播). What’s more, they also helped sell each other’s products. For example, hosts of sports brand Erke washed their hair with Bee & Flower products on Sept 13.
Liu Xing, from Beijing, said she bought the hair care products after learning about their quality (质量) and the brands’ history last week. “The packaging of these products may not be as nice as those of big brands, and the companies may not be able to afford the expensive ads, but the quality of the products and their prices surprised me. I wish I’d known about these old Chinese brands earlier,” Liu said.
▲ . Why? For one thing, they think that the products of these Chinese brands are good to use and don’t cost much. Also, it makes buyers feel proud. They can help these old brands “come back to life” by buying the products. Buyers believe in these brands and will use their money to help them grow.
However, livestreaming events should only be a start. How can brands keep people interested? Good products with good prices. The brands shouldn’t take advantage of people’s trust. They should turn it into a reason to make their products better.

A. Companies can’t pay for the ads. B. Users don’t stick to the Chinese brands.
C. Many people can’t stop buying these products. D. Young people don’t trust foreign brands anymore.

Give your jeans a new life!
Do you have an old pair of jeans that you don’t wear anymore? Are you planning to throw them away? Find out how they are made first and you’ll see why it’s a good idea to recycle them!
Jeans are made from a material called denim (牛仔布), which is made from cotton. It takes a lot of water to grow cotton. After the cotton is harvested, it is taken to a factory and made into yarn (丝线). Indigo dye is then used to colour the yarn: it gives the jeans their dark blue colour. After that, the yarn is made into denim material, which is cut to make jeans.
Lots of people like stonewashed jeans. To make these, jeans are washed with stones to make them softer and more comfortable. Stonewashing can also change the colour of the denim to light blue. Finally, workers pack jeans into boxes and send them to shops all over the world.
To make one pair of jeans, 10,000 litres of water and many other resources (资源) are used, such as energy, materials and people to do the work. So we really shouldn’t throw away old jeans, just because they’re too small or because we have a new pair. You can give them to friends or other families. You can also have a party to exchange them with other people.

Do you know about Bee & Flower? It was once a well-known hair care brand in China. Many brands like this have disappeared because young people don’t know about them. But recently, some old Chinese brands have made a comeback. It’s a good start, but there’s more to it.
In early September, anger over a makeup brand’s eyebrow pens (眉笔) lit up the Internet. Some people thought that they were too expensive as it cost 79 yuan to get three pens. Shortly after, Bee & Flower started to sell three large bottles of hair care products for the same price. It showed that Chinese products could still be cost-effective.
Many Chinese brands took their chance by selling through livestreaming (直播). What’s more they also helped sell each other’s products. For example, hosts of sports brand Erke washed their hair with Bee & Flower products on Sept 13.
Liu Xing, from Beijing, said she bought the hair care products after learning about their quality (质量) and the brands’ history last week. “The packaging of these products may not be as nice as those of big brands, and the companies may not be able to afford the expensive ads, but the quality of the products and their prices surprised me. I wish I’d known about these old Chinese brands earlier,” Liu said.
▲ . Why? For one thing, they think that the products of these Chinese brands are good to use and don’t cost much. Also, it makes buyers feel proud. They can help these old brands “come back to life” by buying the products. Buyers believe in these brands and will use their money to help them grow.
However, livestreaming events should only be a start. How can brands keep people interested? Good products with good prices. The brands shouldn’t take advantage of people’s trust. They should turn it into a reason to make their products better.
27. Bee & Flower started to sell well because __________.
A. it is cheap B. it has expensive ads C. it is an old brand D. it has nice packaging
28. From Paras. 2—4, we can know that __________.
A. Bee & Flower is always a well-known hair care brand
B. Liu Xing thinks that China has good products with good prices
C. customers get two bottles of hair care products for only 79 yuan
D. many Chinese brands only sell their own products through livestreaming
29 Which of the following sentences could be put int he “__________” in paragraph 5?
A. Companies can’t pay for the ads. B. Users don’t stick to the Chinese brands.
C. Many people can’t stop buying these products. D. Young people don’t trust foreign brands anymore.
30. The writer thinks the most important thing for old brands is to __________.
A. change sale ways B. have good quality C. make fantastic ads D. make products cheaper
