Are you searching for the latest device as a gift? Here, we offer a guide that will help you take a closer look at four of tech’s hottest categories.
Virtual reality
Virtual reality (VR), the most exciting tech development of recent times, has arrived. The Sony VR doesn’t require expensive phone and there are some devices you can purchase to enhance the experience. But if you’ve already got a PS4, you can enter the world of VR for just $400 (2780 yuan).
Wireless headphones
Combining ease of use with the ability to move around without limit, wireless headphones just make sense. The Bose QuietComfort 35 wireless headphones are worth a test drive. The headphones feature active noise cancellation. They can be easily purchased for less than $400 online.
Digital cameras
While your phone has more functions, there’s no substitute(替代品)for a real camera. As small as your smartphone, the smooth design of the Fujifilm X70, $699 (4850 yuan), makes it the perfect companion. In China, Xiaomi’s mirrorless Yi M1 offers a more affordable option, available for just 2199 yuan.
Smartwatches
Watches, thanks to the mobile phone, were becoming unnecessary. Now the pursuit for fitness has helped the watch industry push forward. FitBit has been a leader in the sporty wearable field, and its new swim-proof Fitbit Flex 2 ($130) represents the best in the way of today’s fitness bands.

Mike Mushaw joined the national bone marrow registry (骨髓登记) three years ago by chance. Six months later he got a call. The 21-year-old football player's bone marrow matched a patient in Virginia. Mushaw gave a second thought to the donation, because apart from some risks, he never knew whether his donation worked.
“Finally I said yes,” Mushaw told the journalist. “Once they took my blood, I thought, ‘All right, this is real. This is going to happen.’”
Mushaw didn't know it at the time, but his donation would go to a five-month-old girl named Eleanor who was sick with a rare disease diagnosed when she was only three months old. Days and weeks passing, her condition had become more dire.
“Eleanor was going to die without a bone marrow transplant,” her mother, Jessica, said. “The choices were to either get a transplant or die early. Luckily, Mushaw’s bone cured her.”
Mushaw didn't know any of this until months after his donation. About six months after the procedure, Eleanor's parents sent him an e-mail to thank him for his selfless love.
Their surprising connection was beginning. Mushaw kept checking on her progress. Eleanor focused her attention on him, too, by watching his football games on TV. In August, Mushaw invited her family to drive from Virginia to Connecticut to meet at one of his games. They had a good time together.
In January, Mushaw reunited with Eleanor, this time in Virginia, to celebrate her birthday. It will likely be first of many celebrations together. “As a parent, it feels really great to watch someone love your kid as much as you do,” Jessica says. “We were two complete strangers, and now we've become such a big part of each other's lives.”
4. Why did Mushaw hesitate at first?
A. He was a football player. B. He would face some danger.
C. He knew it wouldn't work at all. D. He didn't know whether his risks were worthy.
5. What does the underlined word “dire” in paragraph 3 mean?
A. Serious. B. Complicated. C. Relieved. D. Hopeful.
6. Which of the following best describes Mushaw?
A. Kind but hesitant. B. Active and confident.
C. Worried but energetic. D. Selfless and considerate.
7. What can we learn through Mushaw's story?
A. Why health matters. B. Never make excuses.
C. How to be a good person. D. Love brings people together.
C
While some feel that bookstores are fading away, one Chinese bookstore has found new life by marching into rural areas in China to bring colorful cultural life and higher incomes lo local residents.
By absorbing local rural characteristics, the village branches of the Librairie Avantgarde Bookstore (LAB) chain have transformed into important platforms to display local history, culture and folk traditions. Not just bookstores, they are foundations helping to relieve spiritual poverty (贫困) and centers for gathering and displaying rural culture.
To better fit in the lives of local residents, earth village branch has its own characteristics, like the branch in Shaxi, southwest China’s Yunnan province. Many of nearly 20,000 books in the store are associated with the history, geography and folk customs of Yunnan and the Bai people.
“Turning in profits is not our only aim. Our bookstore has become a public gathering space for villagers. Not only young people, but many elderly residents come here. They do not buy books, but pass the time by reading or chatting with each other in our store.” Liu Xia, the bookstore owner explained.
She added that this is a cultural atmosphere that bookstores offer the area. Some residents have grown accustomed to turning to the books of the store to find answers to the troubles they face, such as operating a business or controlling tourists from urban areas. The biggest benefit of opening bookstores in villages is that it helps provide a healthy environment for children’s growth. “My kids often come to the store. They love reading books here. They gain knowledge and curiosity about outside world.” one villager said.
The arrival of the bookstore menus a lot to the village when young residents have been leaving for urban areas in recent years. During the 2020 May Day and National Day holidays, the daily number of tourists traveling to the village reached 5,000, a record high. Visitors were attracted by the bookstore. Surrounding it, several restaurants and holds have opened.
8. Which of the following best describes village branches of the LAB?
A. They are disappearing gradually.
B. They feature local rural cultures.
C. They could make much higher profits.
D. They have set up poverty-relief foundations.
9. What do we know about the branch in Shaxi?
A. It specializes in history-related books.
B. It creates a public gathering space for business.
C. It shares the same features with oilier branches.
D. It helps villagers know more about the Bai people.
10. What’s the greatest influence of village bookshops on the local areas?
A. Attracting more people lo pay a visit.
B. Offering kids a healthy atmosphere.
C. Helping residents lo acquire knowledge.
D. Encouraging the young to go to big cities.
11. Which of the following can be the best title of the text?

D
Do you find it difficult to put down your mobile phone? If yes, you’re not alone. These days, many people suffer from the stress of FOMO (fear of missing out). They reach for their mobile phones when they wake up in the morning, and for the rest of the day, they constantly scroll down (向下滚动) the timelines of their social media apps to get the latest updates.
Despite the convenience smartphones bring, many people struggle with their digital habits. As Sameer Samat, US tech Company Google’s vice president of product management, said in his speech at the 2018 Google I/O developer conference on May 8th, 70 percent of people don’t want to spend so much time on their phones. This is why during the conference Google introduced an app called Dashboard for the new version (版本) of its Android operating system. This new app includes well-being functions that aim to help users manage the time they spend on their digital devices.
It all starts with a bird’s-eye view. Dashboard allows users to look at all the details of their phone habits. For example, a user can see how many times they’ve unlocked their phone and how many times they’ve checked their social media apps, as well as how much time they spend on each app every day.
Once the users see this information, they’ll be able to make some changes. With the App Timer function, users can set a time limit for how long they can use each app for every day. After they’ve hit the limit, they won’t be able to launch the app until the next day.
But even if users become more mindful of their usage, they’re still likely to be drawn in by notifications (通知). This is where the Shush feature comes in. It automatically (自动地) silences incoming calls and notifications when a user puts their phone face down.
If people truly want to make full use of their free time instead of losing hours using their smart phones, these new functions are just one way of doing that. After all, who needs to use an app to stop you from using other apps when the easiest answer would be just to use your willpower?
12. Who are the target users of Dashboard?
A. People who know little about smartphones.
B. People who have trouble dealing with stress.
C. People who are slow at searching for things online.
D. People who wish to manage the time they spend on their smartphone.
13. What can Dashboard do?
A. Lock the phone at a certain time. B. Limit some apps to certain users.
C. Limit the time certain apps can be used. D. Silence app notifications at night.
14. The underlined word “mindful” in Paragraph 5 is closest in meaning to ________.
A. skillful. B. careful. C. trapped. D. creative.
15. What does the author think of Dashboard?
A. It’s not useful at all. B. It’s perfectly designed.
C. It should include more functions. D. It may be helpful to some people.

细节理解题。根据最后一段最后一句中的“its new swim-proof Fitbit Flex 2 ($130) represents the best in the way of today’s fitness bands”(它的新款防水Fitbit Flex 2(130美元)代表了当今健身手环的最佳风格)可知,如果预算是300美元,可以购买Fitbit Flex 2。故选C。
【2题详解】
推理判断题。根据“Digital cameras”部分最后两句“As small as your smartphone, the smooth design of the Fujifilm X70, $699 (4850 yuan), makes it the perfect companion. In China, Xiaomi’s mirrorless Yi M1 offers a more affordable option, available for just 2199 yuan.”(富士X70的平滑设计与你的智能手机一样小,价值699美元(4850元人民币),是完美的伴侣。在中国,小米的无镜易M1提供了更实惠的选择,仅需2199元。)可知,价格可能是你选择小米而不是富士胶片的原因。故选D。

Mushaw gave a second thought to the donation, because apart from some risks, he never knew whether his donation worked.
“Finally I said yes,” Mushaw told the journalist. “Once they took my blood, I thought, ‘All right, this is real. This is going to happen.’”
Mushaw didn't know it at the time, but his donation would go to a five-month-old girl named Eleanor who was sick with a rare disease diagnosed when she was only three months old. Days and weeks passing, her condition had become more dire.
“Eleanor was going to die without a bone marrow transplant,” her mother, Jessica, said. “The choices were to either get a transplant or die early. Luckily, Mushaw’s bone cured her.”
Mushaw didn't know any of this until months after his donation. About six months after the procedure, Eleanor's parents sent him an e-mail to thank him for his selfless love.
Their surprising connection was beginning. Mushaw kept checking on her progress. Eleanor focused her attention on him, too, by watching his football games on TV. In August, Mushaw invited her family to drive from Virginia to Connecticut to meet at one of his games. They had a good time together.
In January, Mushaw reunited with Eleanor, this time in Virginia, to celebrate her birthday. It will likely be first of many celebrations together. “As a parent, it feels really great to watch someone love your kid as much as you do,” Jessica says. “We were two complete strangers, and now we've become such a big part of each other's lives.”
4. Why did Mushaw hesitate at first?
A. He was a football player. B. He would face some danger.
C. He knew it wouldn't work at all. D. He didn't know whether his risks were worthy.
5 What does the underlined word “dire” in paragraph 3 mean?
A. Serious. B. Complicated. C. Relieved. D. Hopeful.
6. Which of the following best describes Mushaw?
A. Kind but hesitant. B. Active and confident.
C. Worried but energetic. D. Selfless and considerate.
7. What can we learn through Mushaw's story?
A Why health matters. B. Never make excuses.
C. How to be a good person. D. Love brings people together.
【答案】4. D 5. A 6. D 7. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了Mike Mushaw的骨髓与一位患有一种罕见免疫缺陷疾病且只有五个月大的小女孩配对成功。他不仅救了这个小女孩,并与小女孩的一家建立了深厚的友谊。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段最后一句“Mushaw gave a second thought to the donation, because apart from some risks, he never knew whether his donation worked.(Mushaw重新考虑了捐赠,因为除了一些风险,他从不知道他的捐赠是否有效。)”可知,起初Mushaw怀疑他的捐赠是否有效。故选D项。
【5题详解】
词义猜测题。根据第三段第一句“Mushaw didn't know it at the time, but his donation would go to a five-month-old girl named Eleanor who was sick with a rare disease diagnosed when she was only three months old. (Mushaw当时并不知道,他的捐款将捐给一个名Eleanor的5个月大的女孩。埃莉诺在3个月大时就被诊断出患有一种罕见的疾病。)”以及第四段第一句““Eleanor was going to die without a bone marrow transplant,” her mother, Jessica, said.(如果不进行骨髓移植,Eleanor就会死去,”她的母亲Jessica说。)”可知,三个月大的Eleanor病情日益加重,得不到救治就会死去,因此可以推断出dire与A项的serious意思相同,意为“严重的”。故选A项。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据第五段内容“Mushaw didn't know any of this until months after his donation. About six months after the procedure, Eleanor's parents sent him an e-mail to thank him for his selfless love.(Mushaw捐款几个月后才知道这些。手术后大约六个月,Eleanor的父母给他发了一封电子邮件,感谢他无私的爱。)”以及最后一段第一句内容“In January, Mushaw reunited with Eleanor, this time in Virginia, to celebrate her birthday. (1月,Mushaw和Eleanor团聚,这次是在弗吉尼亚,庆祝她的生日。)”可知,Mushaw的捐赠以及为被捐助者庆祝生日,都可以体现出Mushaw的无私和体贴。故选D项。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段最后两句““As a parent, it feels really great to watch someone love your kid as much as you do,” Jessica says. “We were two complete strangers, and now we've become such a big part of each other's lives.”(Jessica说:“作为一名家长,看到有人像自己一样爱自己的孩子,感觉真的很棒。”“我们曾经是完全陌生的两个人,现在我们已经成为彼此生活中如此重要的一部分。”)”以及结合全文内容可推知,我们能从Mushaw的故事中学到爱可以使人们紧紧地团结在一起。故选D项。

Do you find it difficult to put down your mobile phone? If yes, you’re not alone. These days, many people suffer from the stress of FOMO (fear of missing out). They reach for their mobile phones when they wake up in the morning, and for the rest of the day, they constantly scroll down (向下滚动) the timelines of their social media apps to get the latest updates.
Despite the convenience smartphones bring, many people struggle with their digital habits. As Sameer Samat, US tech Company Google’s vice president of product management, said in his speech at the 2018 Google I/O developer conference on May 8th, 70 percent of people don’t want to spend so much time on their phones. This is why during the conference Google introduced an app called Dashboard for the new version (版本) of its Android operating system. This new app includes well-being functions that aim to help users manage the time they spend on their digital devices.
It all starts with a bird’s-eye view. Dashboard allows users to look at all the details of their phone habits. For example, a user can see how many times they’ve unlocked their phone and how many times they’ve checked their social media apps, as well as how much time they spend on each app every day.
Once the users see this information, they’ll be able to make some changes. With the App Timer function, users can set a time limit for how long they can use each app for every day. After they’ve hit the limit, they won’t be able to launch the app until the next day.
But even if users become more mindful of their usage, they’re still likely to be drawn in by notifications (通知). This is where the Shush feature comes in. It automatically (自动地) silences incoming calls and notifications when a user puts their phone face down.
If people truly want to make full use of their free time instead of losing hours using their smart phones, these new functions are just one way of doing that. After all, who needs to use an app to stop you from using other apps when the easiest answer would be just to use your willpower?
12. Who are the target users of Dashboard?
A. People who know little about smartphones.
B. People who have trouble dealing with stress.
C. People who are slow at searching for things online.
D. People who wish to manage the time they spend on their smartphone.
13. What can Dashboard do?
A. Lock the phone at a certain time. B. Limit some apps to certain users.
C. Limit the time certain apps can be used. D. Silence app notifications at night.
14. The underlined word “mindful” in Paragraph 5 is closest in meaning to ________.
A. skillful. B. careful. C. trapped. D. creative.
15. What does the author think of Dashboard?
A. It’s not useful at all. B. It’s perfectly designed.
C. It should include more functions. D. It may be helpful to some people.
【答案】12. D 13. C 14. B 15. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了谷歌推出的一款能帮助人们更好地管理使用智能手机的时间的新的应用程序——Dashboard。
【12题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第二段最后一句“This new app includes well-being functions that aim to help users manage the time they spend on their digital devices.(这款新的应用程序包括健康功能,旨在帮助用户管理他们花在数字设备上的时间)”可知,Dashboard的目标用户是那些想管理自己花在智能手机上的时间的人,故选D项。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段第二句“With the App Timer function, users can set a time limit for how long they can use each app for every day. After they’ve hit the limit, they won’t be able to launch the app until the next day.(通过定时功能,用户可以设置每天使用每个应用程序的时间限制。当他们达到时间上限后,他们直到第二天才能启动该应用程序)”,由此可知,Dashboard能够限制用户在使用某些应用程序的时间,故选C项。
【14题详解】
词义猜测题。根据第四段最后一句“After they’ve hit the limit, they won’t be able to launch the app until the next day.(当他们达到时间上限后,他们直到第二天才能启动该应用程序)”,以及划线词所在句“But even if users become more mindful of their usage, they’re still likely to be drawn in by notifications (通知).(但即使用户更mindful他们的使用,他们仍然可能被通知所吸引)”可知,用户会很留意自己的使用某些应用程序的时间,mindful意为“留心的”,与careful语意相近,故选B项。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“If people truly want to make full use of their free time instead of losing hours using their smart phones, these new functions are just one way of doing that. After all, who needs to use an app to stop you from using other apps when the easiest answer would be just to use your willpower?(如果人们真的想充分利用他们的空闲时间,而不是浪费时间使用他们的智能手机,这些新功能只是其中一种方式。毕竟,当最简单的解决办法就是利用意志力时,谁还需要用一个应用程序来阻止你使用其他应用程序呢?)”可知,Dashboard的这个功能对于没有意志力的人来说应该是有帮助的。故选D项。

Shyness is normal and it is not considered as a mental problem. All people have been shy at one time or another. Even the most confident people experienced being shy. ____16____.
You probably are wondering why you are shy. It may be because of the environment you were used to or the way you were brought up. Certain events or incidents in the past may also lead to the reason why you are shy now. ____17____ Most shy people have shy parents and relatives and it is not surprising to find out that they too have become shy persons.
One of the negative sides of being shy is having the tendency to be passive. Most of the time shy people can’t stand up for themselves and what they believe is right. ____18____This apparently influences their social life as well as work, family and other aspects of their life.
While shyness has negative aspects, it has positive sides. Shy people are usually good observers and do not get themselves into too much trouble because they try to observe their environment or any situation before they act. ____19____ They can also make great friends. Since they have difficulties in social scenes, making friends seems to be a must. Therefore, they value their friends wholeheartedly and have proven to be loyal and thoughtful friends.
____20____ Some of them born with shy parents have successfully battled against being shy. This contributes to their constant self-improvement, developing self-esteem and trying to be exposed to new environments.
A. But in most cases, shyness proves to be genetic.

【解析】
【分析】本文是说明文。文章分析了人们会害羞的原因、介绍了害羞的弊端和益处以及害羞是可以慢慢克服的这一事实。
【16题详解】
第一段是全文的开篇,前三句话“Shyness is normal and it is not considered as a mental problem. All people have been shy at one time or another. Even the most confident people experienced being shy. (害羞是正常的,它不被认为是一种精神问题。所有的人都曾有过害羞的时候。即使是最自信的人也会感到害羞) ”讲到害羞是正常现象,所有人,包括最自信的人,都曾害羞过,D项“So if you’re feeling shy, don’t worry because you are not alone.(所以,如果你感到害羞,不要担心,因为你不是一个人)”是本段的结论,正因为人人都会害羞,所以不用担心,与上文构成因果关系。故选D项。
【17题详解】
上文“It may be because of the environment you were used to or the way you were brought up. Certain events or incidents in the past may also lead to the reason why you are shy now.(这可能是因为你所习惯的环境或者你被抚养长大的方式。过去的某些事情或事件也可能是导致你现在害羞的原因) ”讲感到害羞可能与成长环境和特定事件等外部因素有关,而下文“Most shy people have shy parents and relatives and it is not surprising to find out that they too have become shy persons.(大多数害羞的人都有害羞的父母和亲戚,所以不难发现他们也成了害羞的人)”讲害羞可能来自父母亲戚的遗传、基因,是内部因素,上下文之间有转折对比关系,A项 “But in most cases, shyness proves to be genetic.(但在大多数情况下,害羞是遗传的)”起到承上启下的作用。故选A项。
【18题详解】
根据下文“This apparently influences their social life as well as work, family and other aspects of their life.(这显然影响了他们的社会生活以及工作、家庭和生活的其他方面)”中指示代词this可知,上文中应出现其指代内容,而且该内容会影响到人们的社会生活以及工作、家庭和生活的其他方面,G 项“They avoid crowds by nature and stay away from groups and social interactions.(他们天生避开人群,远离群体和社会交往)”中所描述害羞的人会“避开人群,远离群体和社会交往”这一行为,会对人们的方方面面造成极大的影响,正是下文代词this指代的 对象,与下文构成逻辑上的顺承关系。故选G项。
【19题详解】
根据段首中心句“While shyness has negative aspects, it has positive sides.(虽然害羞有消极的方面,但它也有积极的方面)”可知,本段主要介绍“害羞”的积极意义,E项“They are not hot-headed and think twice before making any decisions.(他们不会头脑发热,在做任何决定之前都会再三考虑)”讲害羞的人做事情会深思熟虑,这是对中心句中“positive sides”的举例说明,同时,与其上文和下文构成并列关系,都是对中心句的举例说明。故选E项。
【20题详解】
根据下文“Some of them born with shy parents have successfully battled against being shy. This contributes to their constant self-improvement, developing self-esteem and trying to be exposed to new environments.(一些人出生时父母就很害羞,但他们成功地战胜了害羞。这有助于他们不断自我完善,发展自尊,尝试接触新环境) ”可知,本段主要讲了害羞是可以战胜的,F项“Although shyness is something from birth, it can be improved over time.(虽然害羞是与生俱来的,但它可以随着时间的推移而改善)”讲害羞可以改善,作为段首中心句,是对全段内容的准确概括,且句中“it can be improved ”与下文“their constant self-improvement, developing self-esteem”相照应。故选F项。

【导语】这是一篇新闻报道。文章讲述了一群大象进入云南省的野象谷,同时对这些象群以及人们对野生大象的保护工作进行描述。
【41题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意: 2020年,一群野象向北行进数月,2021年被发现进入云南省的野象谷。spot sb. doing发现某人正在做,本句为被动形式:sb be spotted doing sth所以此处用现在分词做主语补足语,故填entering。
【42题详解】
考查名词。句意:国家林业和草原管理局亚洲象研究中心主任陈飞说: “象群中的成年象和幼象都很健康。”空处做Chen Fei的同位语,应用名词单数director,表示一种“主任”这一职位,故填director。
【43题详解】
考查副词。句意:象群仍然有14个成员,但陈说,可能包括一些新成员,因为这个象群可能接触到了沿途中的其他组象群。动词came应用副词来修饰,副词possibly意为“可能”,故填possibly。
【44题详解】

【45题详解】
考查时态和语态。句意:云南是中国唯一发现野生亚洲象的地方。空处是where从句的谓语,句子描述的是客观事实,应用一般现在时,且主语wild Asian elephants和动词find是被动关系,所以用一般现在时的被动,主语是复数,故填are found。
【46题详解】
考查定语从句。句意: 亚洲象被列入国际自然保护联盟濒危物种红色名单,在中国是一级保护动物,与我们可爱的大熊猫地位相同。“______is included on the International Union for Conservation of Nature Red List of Threatened Species as “endangered””是非限定性定语从句,先行词是The Asian elephant,指物,在定语从句中做主语,应用关系代词which来引导,故填which。
【47题详解】

【48题详解】
考查冠词。句意:云南已建成11个自然保护区,总面积41.46万公顷,几乎是上世纪80年代的两倍。此处是特指,指的是20世纪80年代的自然保护区数量,应用定冠词the来修饰,故填the。

【解析】
【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了玛丽接到一个小孩的求救电话,然后她报了警,警察和医生一起帮助了小孩和她的母亲的故事。
【详解】1.考查形容词。句意:一个周四早上,她惊讶地接到一个小孩的电话。分析句子结构可知,此处修饰人,应该用ed结尾的形容词形式作表语。故将surprising改为surprised。
2.考查非谓语动词。句意:一个周四早上,她惊讶地接到一个小孩的电话,一次又一次地说“妈妈病了,妈妈病了”。分析句子结构可知,此处应该用非谓语动词,逻辑主语是a young child,与say之间是主动关系。故将said改为saying。
3.考查冠词。句意:玛丽急忙找电话的地址,然后报了警。call the police表示“报警”,the表示特指。故在call后面加the。
4.考查介词短语。句意:警察和医生很快就赶到了那所房子。表示“立刻、马上”用in no time。故将At改为In。
5.考查形容词。句意:他们当众破门而入,简直不敢相信自己的眼睛。openly表示公开地、毫不隐瞒地,与句意不符。此处应该用open做宾语补足语,表示“开着的”。故将openly改为open。
6.考查固定句型。句意:那小孩太小了,不能走路!。分析句意可知,此处应该用so……that句型,表示“如此……以致于……”。故将very改为so。
7.考查介词。句意:她坐在母亲身边,握着母亲的手。分析句意可知,此处表达“在……旁边”,应该用beside。besides表示“除......之外”故将besides改为beside。
8.考查时态。句意:眼泪从她脸上流下来。分析句意可知,她正在流泪,应该用现在进行时。故将run改为running。
9.考查时态。句意:医生给了那个女人一些药,不久她就苏醒过来了。分析句意可知,她苏醒过来,主语与谓语为主动关系。故删除was。
10.考查名词。句意:这是我第一次看到一岁的孩子拨打911。分析句子可知,一个1岁的孩子,应该用名词的单数形式。故将children改为child。

Dear fellow students,
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Yours,
Li Hua
【答案】Dear fellow students,
It can’t be ignored that food waste commonly exists in the canteen of our school. Piles of leftovers are thrown away every day, which makes my heart ache terribly. However, many students are unconscious of their improper behaviour. Therefore, I’m writing to appeal to all of us not to waste food.
With the improvement of living standard, hunger appears to be far away from us. But we shouldn’t forget that millions of people are still starving in the world. In addition, for us civilized students, it’s a kind of respect for the farmers’ labour to eat up all food in our plates.
Dear fellow students, we can’t allow precious food to be wasted. Let’s cherish every bite of food and refuse any form of waste.
Yours,
Li Hua
