Recently, many Chinese schools have introduced spring and autumn breaks — short holidays in the middle of spring and autumn terms. They are not extra (额外的) days off; instead, schools shorten summer and winter vacations to keep the total school days unchanged.
The idea is not new. In the past, village schools had “farming breaks” so students could help with spring planting and autumn harvesting (收割). Today’s breaks are different: they let students relax, explore nature, and join social activities.
Different provinces have different plans. Zhejiang was the first to carry out the policy (政策). Now eight provinces, including Hunan, Shandong and Jiangsu, are doing the same. Usually, spring break is 2—3 days around May Day, and autumn break is 2—3 days in November.
There are many benefits. First, they help students study in a better rhythm (节奏). After mid-term exams, a short break reduces stress and stops students from feeling burnt out. Second, families can travel during less crowded times, avoiding busy holidays and high prices. Third, outdoor activities in spring and autumn are good for both body and mind.
Of course, some parents worry that too many breaks may affect studies. In fact, schools give little or no written homework during the breaks. Instead, students are encouraged to read, exercise, or visit museums.
In short, spring and autumn breaks bring a healthier balance between study and rest. They remind us that learning happens not only in classrooms but also through real-life experiences.
4. What do schools do to introduce spring and autumn breaks?
A. Add extra school days.
B. Give students more homework.
C. Shorten summer and winter vacations.
5. What does the underlined phrase “burnt out” in Paragraph 4 mean?
A. Tired and stressed. B. Excited and active. C. Happy and relaxed.
6. When is autumn break usually arranged?
A. Around May Day. B. In November. C. Before the winter vacation.
7. What is the main idea of the passage?
A. The introduction of spring and autumn breaks.
B. The history of “farming breaks” in rural schools.
C. Different plans for spring and autumn breaks.
C
Every year on October 4th the world comes together for the well-being (福祉) of animals everywhere. This is World Animal Day.
Starting in 1925, the yearly event has become a special chance for everyone who cares about animals to make a difference. In 2022, the theme was “A Shared Planet”. “As we share this Earth with all living things, we can truly make a difference for all animals!” wrote the event’s website.
In the past ten years, China has done much to improve the well-being of domestic (驯养的) and wild animals. The protection of Asian elephants is a good example.
Asian elephants have become endangered because some people hunt them for their ivory (象牙). Asian elephants in China are mostly in Yunnan Province. These wild animals sometimes eat local farmers’ crops. The government has been trying to create a more harmonious relationship between the local people and wildlife. For example, they make rules to stop the ivory trade.
With World Animal Day around the corner, we all can think of more ways to better protect our wild friends. Let’s take action together!

A. The World Animal Day started in 1952.

Many parents ask their children to do chores around the house. Mary, a mother of three children, never did that before. She always thought her children were too young to do chores. However, a TV show called Old Enough changed her mind.
It’s a popular reality show (真人秀). The idea of the show is from a children’s picture book. The book describes a mother asking her five-year-old daughter to run to a store near their home to get some milk. The child is nervous about going alone but she finishes it successfully.
The TV show shows young children are also able to do many things by themselves. After watching the show, Mary decided to have a try. She then found a way on the Internet to make her children interested in the housework. Mary used an app called You Rule Chores. It can make doing the housework more like playing a game. Every time the children finish a chore, they can get a coin (硬币) on the app as a prize. The more chores they do, the more coins they can get. Then they can use the coins to watch their favorite movies or take a trip. Now, Mary’s children can do lots of chores themselves and become more independent.
36. What made Mary change her mind about doing chores?
____________________________________________________________________________________________
37. Where does the idea of the TV show come from?

Many parents ask their children to do chores around the house. Mary, a mother of three children, never did that before. She always thought her children were too young to do chores. However, a TV show called Old Enough changed her mind.
It’s a popular reality show (真人秀). The idea of the show is from a children’s picture book. The book describes a mother asking her five-year-old daughter to run to a store near their home to get some milk. The child is nervous about going alone but she finishes it successfully.
The TV show shows young children are also able to do many things by themselves. After watching the show, Mary decided to have a try. She then found a way on the Internet to make her children interested in the housework. Mary used an app called You Rule Chores. It can make doing the housework more like playing a game. Every time the children finish a chore, they can get a coin (硬币) on the app as a prize. The more chores they do, the more coins they can get. Then they can use the coins to watch their favorite movies or take a trip. Now, Mary’s children can do lots of chores themselves and become more independent.

Dear Daniel,
I’m happy to hear from you. I’m writing to introduce my best friend to you.
Her name is Lucy. She is tall and has long hair. She always wears a warm smile and looks friendly. We are similar because we both love reading and often share interesting books together. However, she is more careful than I am. She can always find small mistakes I miss. We became friends three years ago. At that time, I was ill and stayed at home. She helped me with my lessons patiently after school. To me, friendship means trust and support. Friends should always help each other in trouble and cheer each other up. True friendship makes our life much brighter.
