By picking up your tent and some other living things, it’s easy to go up to the countryside and enjoy a night or two in the open air. Many campers are just staying away from their modern and hectic life to do this. They say that a few peaceful nights in the faraway country might be a good way to relax and improve sleep and health. It is also, of course, a good cheap holiday choice.
Armed (配备) with just some food and a sleeping bag, people are free from rules, away from other people, and able to enjoy the back-to-basics time. One wild camper said, “The act of sleeping—when everybody else has gone home but you notice the wild and stars—is one of the best things in life.”
Now as more and more people join in camping, sales of camping gear (装备) have jumped, such as stoves, cool boxes and camping chairs. With these useful things like stoves, and easy-to-cook food, you can make sure of having a comfortable and enjoyable camping. So when the weather is good, maybe it’s time to give camping a try.

The internet has changed the world. People are able to get and share information in seconds. Nowadays, people begin to wonder: Is the internet good or bad? “It’s impossible to answer that question because the internet means so many things,” says psychologist (心理学家) Patricia Greenfield.
Some are truly wonderful. In many ways it makes life easier and simpler. It helps us get things done more quickly. It opens up the world to us. And if a friend lives far away, the internet makes it easy to stay in touch.
However, the issue (话题) isn’t black and white. Some can become real problems if we don’t take care. Spending too much time online is harmful to people’s health. It may even cause them to be less social with family and friends. Besides, some people attack the web or use the internet to steal others’ personal information, even banking information. Most of the young students think the internet is simply an icon on the screen. Kids won’t realize that the internet is a network of millions of computers until about 10 years old.
The internet can be a useful tool, but don’t let it take up all of your time. Use the internet properly (适当地) and carefully and it can make your life more colourful.
36.By saying “the internet means so many things”, Patricia Greenfield means that _________.
A.the internet is hard for people to master
B.the internet brings advantages (优点) as well as disadvantages
C.the internet has more advantages than expected
D.the internet has more disadvantages than expected

A.The internet helps us get and share information quickly.
B.Not everything on the internet is safe.
C.Using the internet for a long time is not good for our health.
D.Young children should not use the internet.

On the subway, by the bus stop, on the train stop and so on, we often see people watching micro-dramas (微短剧) on apps like Kuaishou and Douyin. 41 In 2023, micro-dramas made 37.39 billion yuan, equal to 70 percent of the money made by China’s film industry.
42 Sensor Tower, a US company, said that over 40 apps for watching the dramas have entered the global market. By early 2024, these apps already had around 55 million downloads (下载量). One of them, ReelShort, has been downloaded more times than Netflix on the Apple Store in the US, reported Reuters.
International viewers find these micro-dramas exciting to watch. The stories are usually fast-paced and have many surprising twists (转折). 43
The short period of the dramas adds to their popularity (受欢迎程度). 44 People can finish a micro-drama in short length of time, such as on their way to work. Also, most micro-dramas are filmed vertically (竖向地). This allows people to watch them comfortably without having to turn their phone screen.
Going forward, micro-dramas could open new doors for China’s cultural exports (文化输出). 45 The dramas should cover more topics, not just the usual ones like time travel.
A.This keeps people’s attention and makes them fun.

Walt Disney World is an amazing place for many people in the US. However, for some, this dream place is making them 46 a lot of debt (债务).
According to the US website LendingTree, 45 percent of over 2,000 US Disney 47 with children under 18 went into debt for their trip. But more than half of these parents didn’t feel 48 about what they did. Why is it?

Going camping is the best fun in the world if we know how to do it. Every healthy boy and girl, if possible, should enjoy living outdoors for a week or two every year.
A group of four members makes a good number for a camping trip. They will probably agree better than two or three. They can do much of the camp work in pairs. No one needs to be left alone to look after the camp while the others go fishing or hunting or to some nearby towns for food and drinks.
It is always better to go camping with someone who has “camped out” before. If he cannot be found, then make your plans, decide what you will do and how you will do it, take a few cooking lessons from your mother or someone else.
First, choose a leader, not because he is more important than the rest but because if someone goes ahead and gives directions, the life in camp will run much more easily and everyone will have a better time.
If it is your first experience in camping, you had better go somewhere near home. The best place is one that can be reached by car. If you have to carry your supplies(必需品) on your back or in a canoe(独木舟), the amount(数量) you can take will be much less.
After you have had some experience near home, you can safely try the other way. Where you go is of little importance. Near every large city there are some lakes or rivers where you can find a good camping site. Campers always have more fun if they are near some water, but if such a place is not easily found where you live, go into the forest. Try to get away from towns or villages. The wilder the place is, the better.
