【題目】 China will cut the number of climbers trying to climb Mount Qomolangma from the north this year as part of plans for the clean-up on the world's highest mountains. The clean-up activity will include moving away the bodies of climbers who died at more than 8,000 metres up the mountain.

The total number of climbers trying to reach the top of the world's highest mountain from the north will be controlled to less than 300. The climbing season will be controlled to spring.

Parts of Qomolangma are in China and Nepal (尼泊爾). Each year, around 60,000 climbers and guides visit the Chinese north side of the mountain, but few actually try to climb it. China has set up stations to sort (分類), recycle and break down rubbish from the mountain, which includes cans, plastic bags, tents and oxygen tanks (氧氣瓶).

On the Nepalese side, mountaineering trip organizers have begun sending huge rubbish bags to climbers during the spring climbing season. They should collect rubbish that then can be carried by helicopters back to the base camp.

Every year there are many victims on Qomolangma often in the "death area" above 8,000 metres, where the air is the thinnest. In 2017, 648 people reached the top of Qomolangma. Six people have died on the mountain that year, one of whom on the north side.

Qomolangma has become the world's highest rubbish dump (垃圾場). Meanwhile, melting (融化) ice caused by global warming is exposing (暴露) rubbish that has been left on the mountain since Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Norgay made the first successful climbing 67 years ago.

【題目】 This winter holiday was a different one for Chinese people. No Spring Festival gatherings, no family reunion meals, no hanging out with friends. Instead, we had masks on our faces, traffic controls, closed shops, delayed (延遲) school or work days, temperature checks in public places. During this time, most people have shown their understanding, taking medical advice and following the new rules. Everyone is making efforts, small or big, to help fight the epidemic (疫情).Here are the stories of three teenagers and their families during the epidemic.

Li Mingyu, 15, Lanzhou

* . His father is a doctor of traditional Chinese medicine. The hospital he works in has received several corona-virus pneumonia patients.

To help cheer up his coworkers, Li’s father made a few packages containing traditional Chinese medicine and handed them out.

Zhao Junyan, 15, Shanghai

Zhao is a Grade 8 student from Shanghai. On Feb 3, he transported 15,000 masks from Indonesia back to China. During the winter holiday, Zhao went to visit his uncle in Jakarta. When he saw the news about the outbreak and the shortage of masks in China, he and his uncle bought as many masks as they could.“When a country is in trouble, everyone is responsible (有責任的) to help,”Zhao said to the media. “What I have done is what an ordinary Chinese person can possibly do.”

Tong Zexi, 15, Harbin

Tong hasn’t left his house for more than 20 days. Sometimes he really wanted to run outside and breathe freely without a mask. “But I need to protect myself and cause no trouble. In this key time, if one gets sick, many others could be affected,” he said. With this in mind, he has stayed at home and worked on his homework. He also tries to do some exercise indoors, believing that staying fit will help prevent the disease.

1How does the writer support the idea that this winter holiday is different?

A.By sharing three stories.B.By comparing different families.
