When Elaina was 7 years old, she saw a lot of people needed food. She made a plan to give food to hundreds of people. She made snack bags for them. Then she and her grandmother gave the food to local shelters. “At that time, I didn’t know why. But as soon as I could help, I wanted to do it.” Elaina said.
Now Elaina is 10. She still keeps trying hard to fight against hunger. She said,“I feel proud. It doesn’t matter if you’re young or old, short or tall. You can always do something to help others.”

At the Badaling Great Wall in Beijing, getting food and water used to require a 50-minute walk. But now, people can place orders on the phone, and drones will bring them over in a few minutes. The drones can also take away garbage from tourists on their return journeys.
By June, over 1.87 million drones had received permission (许可) to work, reported China Daily. The demand for drone pilots is rising. However, only about 225 thousand people have the necessary licenses (执照) to fly them. This creates a shortage of almost 1 million licensed drone pilots in the country.
Since drones have been used in many areas, like farming, video filming and environmental protection, drone pilots can also work in different industries. The pay is good too. Some pilots are paid around 30 thousand yuan per month, reported China Daily.
That is why more people are training to get drone licenses. At Xiaoxiang Yongxiang, a business offering such training in Hunan province, about 500 people have graduated (毕业) so far this year. Before, there were only about 200 each year.
To get a drone-flying license for distances under 500 meters, people need to take 44 hours of training. For longer distances, 56 hours are required. “I believe drones are the future,” said Dong Jiamin, head of Xiaoxiang Yongxiang.
The excitement around drones is connected to the development of the low-altitude economy (低空经济), which is about activities happening in the airspace below 3 thousand meters. By 2030, this part of the economy could reach 2 thousand billion yuan in China. Other industries, such as AI and green energy, are also expected to grow with it.
56. How soon will people get food after placing orders at the Badaling Great Wall?
A. In about 5 minutes. B. In about 50 minutes.
C. In about 44 hours. D. In about 56 hours.

At the Badaling Great Wall in Beijing, getting food and water used to require a 50-minute walk. But now, people can place orders on the phone, and drones will bring them over in a few minutes. The drones can also take away garbage from tourists on their return journeys.
By June, over 1.87 million drones had received permission (许可) to work, reported China Daily. The demand for drone pilots is rising. However, only about 225 thousand people have the necessary licenses (执照) to fly them. This creates a shortage of almost 1 million licensed drone pilots in the country.
Since drones have been used in many areas, like farming, video filming and environmental protection, drone pilots can also work in different industries. The pay is good too. Some pilots are paid around 30 thousand yuan per month, reported China Daily.
That is why more people are training to get drone licenses. At Xiaoxiang Yongxiang, a business offering such training in Hunan province, about 500 people have graduated (毕业) so far this year. Before, there were only about 200 each year.
To get a drone-flying license for distances under 500 meters, people need to take 44 hours of training. For longer distances, 56 hours are required. “I believe drones are the future,” said Dong Jiamin, head of Xiaoxiang Yongxiang.
The excitement around drones is connected to the development of the low-altitude economy (低空经济), which is about activities happening in the airspace below 3 thousand meters. By 2030, this part of the economy could reach 2 thousand billion yuan in China. Other industries, such as AI and green energy, are also expected to grow with it.
56. How soon will people get food after placing orders at the Badaling Great Wall?
A. In about 5 minutes. B. In about 50 minutes.
C. In about 44 hours. D. In about 56 hours.
57. What does the underlined word “demand” in Paragraph 2 probably mean in English?
A. ability B. need C. quality D. research
58. What’s Paragraph 3 mainly about?
A. The history of drones. B. The development of drones.
C. The good skills of drone pilots. D. The reasons for more drone pilots.
59. What can we learn from the text?
A. The pay of the drone pilots is low.
B. Drones will have a bright future.
C. Many organizations offer training drone pilots.
D. People train at least 56 hours to get drone licenses.
60. What can we infer (推测) according to the text?
A. More and more people will lose jobs.
B. It will be more difficult to get drone licenses.
C. Many industries will disappear in the future.
D. The low-altitude economy will develop quickly.

China’s Largest Desert gets a Green Belt
The Taklimakan Desert is China’s largest desert. It covers an area of 337,600 square kilometers. Strong winds often blow across this land. They take large amounts of sand with them. This makes the desert a big source of sandstorms.
Efforts began in 1978 to plant trees to stop the sand. One of the early pioneers, Dr. Liu Wei, an environmental scientist, led a team into that hard environment. Their task was to protect and bring new life to some areas of the desert. They had to face the burning sun, the sandstorms and the shortage of water there. They worked really hard, kept trying all the time, and came up with many new ideas.
Also many people didn’t believe they could succeed. But they didn’t give up. Little by little, some green oases (绿洲) showed up. Now, 46 years later, this green belt is complete. On November 28, the last batch (批) of trees was planted in Yutian County. And the oases are really helpful for the wild animals, giving them better places to live.
