【題目】What’s the English word for the Chinese food Jiaozi? Perhaps you would say “dumpling”. But in fact, you can just say Jiaozi. It has been added to the Oxford(牛津) English Dictionary.

People in English-speaking countries now understand more Chinese words and their spellings in pinyin, according to a recent report by the CFLPA (中國(guó)外文局).

The CFLPA studied 50 media platforms(媒體平臺(tái)) in eight English-speaking countries, including the US, the UK and India. The report listed the top 100 Chinese words that people in these countries use most.

“Shaolin”, a temple in China that is famous for kungfu, was at the top of the list. Other popular words include “yinyang”, “gugong”, “renminbi”, “majiang”, “dama” and so on.

Some of the words are related(有關(guān)系的) not only to Chinese culture, but also politics, economics(經(jīng)濟(jì)) and technology. These words include zhongguomeng(Chinese Dream), yidaiyilu(the Belt and Road Initiative) and zhifubao(Alipay).

【題目】Dear Emma，

Your problem is like a circle. It is because you spend less time with them. The harder you study, the less time you have to spend with friends and the less friendly you look to your classmates. So you should spend more time with them.

Look at your classmates. Are there any people with whom you feel you have a lot in common or trust? You can make friends with them first. The advice is as follows:

First, smile at your classmates. Do this as often as you can, until your classmates become used to your smiles and smile back. Next, talk to your classmates. Do this between classes or during your lunch break. You may find it easier to start by talking to people when they are alone. Perhaps you could ask a classmate about your studies.

They are likely to respond (回應(yīng)) in a very positive way. People like to feel important and helpful.

There must be someone else in your class who is also quiet. It might be easier to try to talk with him or her. Your problem is mainly about confidence. Smile first, talk next and slowly you will make friends. The most important point is that: Unless you have more confidence, you can’t make as many friends as you want.

Editor

【題目】 Sydney Fredette has a lot things to deal with. Not only is she a high school student, but she has also set up her own organization, Beary Merry Christmas. She volunteers to serve poor kids and families in Orange County (縣) in California, US.

To remember her best friend who died of cancer nearly 10 years ago, Fredette decided to serve those in Orange County who are less lucky than she is.

She began with the simple idea of collecting donated (捐贈(zèng)的) Build－A－Bears, the popular toy animal that is made by children themselves in the stores' workshops. Fredette then gave them as gifts to the homeless children in California during the holiday season.

With donations at more than 100 bears a year, Fredette and volunteers host activities every year, where volunteers give out not only the bears, but also clothing, meals and other things.

Not wanting to limit (限制) the giving to just the holiday months, Fredette now hosts other activities for Valentine's Day, Mother's Day and Halloween, providing the chance for her volunteer team to make a difference through the year.

“I love building relationships with the people I serve,” Fredette said. “The thanks they have, hearing their stories and seeing how happy they are, it's so cool.”

Future plans for Fredette include building a public food bank and providing a self－development class for students in her school who will soon attend college.

Heading to college herself in the autumn, Fredette is looking to stay local and continue to help out in her county. In fact, she was regarded as a “Dreamer & Doer” not long ago for her work in improving her community, along with 32 other high school students.

A.Because she wanted to help poor kids and families.

B.Because she wanted to look after the sick.

C.Because she wanted to thank her best friend.

D.Because she wanted to keep her life busy.

【2】What can we learn about Beary Merry Christmas?

A.It holds one activity a year.B.It gives out other things besides bears.

C.It buys bears from the stores.D.It offers service around America.

【3】What can we infer about Fredette?

A.She likes telling people stories.B.She dreams of being a teacher.

C.She is pleased with what she does.D.She plans to leave California for college.

【4】What would be the best title for the passage?

A.Providing a Food Bank.B.Giving Back to Society.
