Fruit tea, toys, handicrafts... Walk out of your home and go to a night market when the sun sets and you' ll feel as if the day just begins.

New kinds of night markets have come out all over the country. Some of the markets have the same opening hours, while others have a pop-up style. Bringing in the latest fashions or copying ancient Chinese markets, they have become very popular with young shoppers.

The night market at Xixili Street in Haikou, Hainan has attracted many people.

"Different from most traditional night markets, you can see pet culture, handmade culture and other popular subcultures," said Wang Yaqi to China Daily, who is a student from Hainan University.

Xu Dongjie, a pet stall (摊位)owner at the market, told Xinhua that more people are interested in her pets than at her pet shop. For her, being part of the market is also a way to make friends with pet lovers.

In a night market, people can also have a taste of traditional culture. At a night market held in Haikou,30 stalls brought back the look of streets during the Song dynasty. Stall workers decorated their stalls and dressed up in the style of that period.

Many cities are trying night markets to make the economy (经济)better. The "Night Touring of Qinhuai" project in Jiangsu has become a local hot spot. In Chongqing, one night market is full of stalls set up in the trunks (后备箱)of cars.

"Shoppers enjoy the night market, and at the same time, it builds up the confidence of stall workers. It brings more jobs," Liu Jiangyong, an official from Chongqing, told Xinhua.

The government has encouraged businesses to develop a night-time economy. Night markets play a big part in the night-time economy. The term"night-time economy" can date back to the 1970s in Britain. It means all economy activities that take place between 18:00 to 6:00 the next day. This kind of economy activity began to take shape in China's coastal cities as early as the 1980s.

C (2024·扬州市江都区期末)

As we all know, activities like listening to the birds or taking a walk in the park are good for our health. But someone thinks birdwatching is often boring.

In fact, a study published in 2024 shows that even half an hour of birdwatching could make us happier, healthier and help us get close to nature. Even hearing birds indoors through an open window can change our bad feelings. The study also shows that it is better to watch birds than to take a walk.

So why is birdwatching so good for us? Biophilia (亲生物性)could be a big part of it. It means that humans have a good relationship with nature—some would think that we should see ourselves as part of nature—so being in nature makes us feel well. But biodiversity (生物多样性)is important too. The study shows that biodiversity is a natural medicine for humans that can help us relax and do more activities.

Another reason is that after being careful to do birdwatching, we can get happiness and know a lot about birds. The study also shows that noticing wildlife in nature can make us get closer to nature and learn more about it. So birdwatching can make us feel happy.

So, take your binoculars and walk into nature for birdwatching to help you relax and be happy. Enjoy every moment and have fun.

(    )1. What can we learn from Paragraph 2?

A. It is better to take a walk than to watch birds in nature.

B. Even keeping the door open can make us happy again.

C. Birdwatching can be helpful to us and make us happier.
