Last week, my father and I went back to my hometown-Zibo in Shandong-to try Zibo barbecue (烧烤). Recently, the local food has become so popular that people all over China travel there to taste it.
On the way to Zibo, my father told me a story. Last year during the COVID-19 pandemic (疫情), thousands of college students were stuck in Zibo.

There are some differences between Zibo’s barbecue and the ones in other cities. Zibo’s barbecue restaurants have a small grill (烤架) on each table. People need to cook on the grill by themselves. When the food is ready, you put it onto a small pancake, and then add some onions and sauce before eating.
People in the restaurant didn’t know each other before. But we just talked naturally about daily life and sang together. The boss of the restaurant even danced. Some local people even put off their orders when they heard there weren’t enough seats. They wanted tourists from other places to have the chance to eat.

Passage 1
In recent years, 3D printing has become a popular technology that is changing the way we create and design objects. This amazing technology can create three-dimensional objects from a digital model.
3D printing works by using a special printer that builds up layers of material, one at a time, to form a solid object. The printer follows the instructions from a computer model to determine the shape and size of the object.
One of the most exciting applications of 3D printing is in the medical field. Doctors can use 3D printing to create models of organs or bones, which helps them plan surgeries more accurately. Scientists are even using 3D printing to create artificial organs for patients who need transplants.

Passage 3
Last week, my father and I went back to my hometown-Zibo in Shandong-to try Zibo barbecue (烧烤). Recently, the local food has become so popular that people all over China travel there to taste it.
On the way to Zibo, my father told me a story. Last year during the COVID-19 pandemic (疫情), thousands of college students were stuck in Zibo. The local government helped students to get through that part of time and offered a great barbecue dinner when the quarantine (隔离) was over. The government officers also invited the students to come back to Zibo again when spring came. I was moved when I heard this.
At 5 pm, we arrived at the restaurant. My father had booked a table two days earlier. Otherwise, there wouldn’t be any seats for us. There are some differences between Zibo’s barbecue and the ones in other cities. Zibo’s barbecue restaurants have a small grill (烤架) on each table. People need to cook on the grill by themselves. When the food is ready, you put it onto a small pancake, and then add some onions and sauce before eating.
People in the restaurant didn’t know each other before. But we just talked naturally about daily life and sang together. The boss of the restaurant even danced. Some local people even put off their orders when they heard there weren’t enough seats. They wanted tourists from other places to have the chance to eat.
After eating the delicious food, I kept thinking about why Zibo became popular. Is it the promise between the government and the college students, or the unusual, tasty food, or the warmhearted people?

Passage 1
In the bustling city, among the towering buildings and busy streets, stands a hardworking figure — a porter carrying heavy sacks of goods. Their backs are bent, but their spirits are strong as they bear the weight of daily life.
Every morning, the porters arrive at the market, ready to take on the challenge of carrying the sacks. These sacks are filled with various goods — fruits, vegetables, and other supplies. Each sack weighs heavily, but the porters never complain. They know that their efforts are vital in keeping the city running smoothly.
With strong arms and determined expressions, the porters hoist the sacks onto their backs. They stride through the narrow alleys and busy streets, navigating the crowds with ease. Their steps are steady, their backs like mountains, unyielding under the weight.
Despite the physical toll, the porters never lose their sense of humor. They joke with each other, laughing heartily as they work. This lightness in the face of hardship is a testament to their resilience and strength.
The porters' work is often overlooked, but their contributions are invaluable. They are the unsung heroes of the city, silently shouldering the burden of transporting goods. Without them, the city would grind to a halt.

Passage 3
For blind people, a white cane is not just a tool; it's a symbol of independence. This simple yet remarkable device has been guiding blind individuals safely through the world for centuries.
The cane allows blind people to detect obstacles in their path and avoid them. By tapping the ground ahead, the user can sense changes in texture, slope, and even the presence of small objects. This information is crucial for navigating safely in unfamiliar environments.
Moreover, the white cane serves as a silent signal to others. When sighted people see a blind person with a white cane, they are automatically alerted to the person's condition and are more likely to offer assistance or simply give way.
In addition to its practical uses, the white cane carries a deeper meaning. It represents the blind person's courage and determination to live life independently, despite their visual impairment. It's a reminder that disabilities are not barriers to achieving dreams.
With the advancement of technology, there are now electronic devices that can assist blind people, but the white cane remains an essential tool for many. It's a testament to its effectiveness and the trust it has earned over the years.
