The traditional Chinese lunar calendar divides the year into 24 periods. Winter Solstice(冬至), the 22nd period of the year, begins this year on Dec 22 and ends on Jan 4.

On the first day of Winter Solstice, the sun shines directly at the Tropic of Capricorn(南回歸線).

Eating dumplings

During Winter Solstice in North China, eating dumplings is necessary for almost everyone. There is a saying that goes “Have dumplings on the first day of Winter Solstice and noodles on the first day of Summer Solstice.”

Every time 8-year-old piano student Zhang Yiting starts to play, the online music education app gets richer.

These days, although Zhang practices alone in her room in Qingdao, Shandong province, she has found a good online music teaching app called Xiongmao Peilian, which translates as “panda tutoring”.

Thanks to the app, there is always a teacher on hand to offer Zhang professional advice. “As a parent with no knowledge of music, it has been a huge relief, as I don’t have to drive her 11 kilometers away to practice as I used to,” said her mother.

Online music teaching becomes popular lately in the country’s online education industry. The app is making an effort to take in students who are learning musical instruments, as well as their parents, who often spend much time and energy being with their children practicing. Having one-on-one piano lessons with teachers online is now possible. They can guide the students on finger movement, hand positioned and playing skills.

“Unlike after-school training, which gives lessons mainly on English and math, the piano education market is still developing,” Ye Bin, leader and CEO of The ONE Music Group, Xiongmao Peilian’s parent company said, adding that there is huge space for growth as the business has not yet become fully developed.

However, it remains to be seen whether the business model is suitable, depending on whether users will buy more lessons.

“On the other hand, such companies should also provide their teachers with tools(工具) and technologies to improve online classes,” Ye noted.

1.According to Paragraph 1-2, Zhang Yiting ________.

A.starts to play the piano at the age of 8

B.becomes richer by playing the piano online

C.practices playing with the help of an app

2.What does Zhang Yiting’s mum think of the app of Xiongmao Peilian?

A.It can help her save time on the road.

B.It can give students one-on-one lessons.

C.The app offers plenty of knowledge.

3.What does NOT the app teach the students?

A.Movement of fingers. B.Skills of singing. C.Position of hands.

4.We can infer(推斷) from the passage that ________.

A.students and parents can use the app for free

B.more work will be done to make the app better

C.the app is very suitable for piano learners

5.What’s the main idea of the passage?

A.A newly developed app. B.A new way of learning. C.A new online course.

According to a sales report on 2018’s Double Eleven, the national shopping day, woman’s down garments(羽絨服) were among the top 10 products.

However, as living standards rise, more expensive garments filled with goose(鵝) down, instead of duck down, have come out in the market.

Goose or duck? What’s the difference between the down from these two animals? The down from adult goose is larger and thicker, which makes garments filled with goose down much warmer. 3..

Geese often eat clean, while ducks eat different kinds of food, which could give their coat a strong smell. These are all the advantages of more expensive garments made with goose down. 4.. Its lower price makes garments made of duck down still popular among people of all ages.

Although most down garments can make people look big, you could choose longer ones for a smaller look. For colors, metallic(金屬) colors arc more fashionable than others.

A. All you need is warmth, which down garments can provide you with.

Li Mingyong-who dropped out of school at 16, worked as a guard at college at 22, and finally graduated with a PhD degree(博士學(xué)位)at 41-has encouraged many people with his story.

Born in 1977 in a village in Zunyi, Southwest China’s Guizhou province, Li was one of the top students in primary and middle school. His mother’s illness left the family with debts(債務(wù)). So when Li graduated from middle school, he went to Guiyang, capital of Guizhou, to make money. In three years time, he helped his father pay off their debts.

In 1999, Li found a job as a guard in Guizhou Education University. He lived in the university and gradually became influenced by everything there. In 2003, he took the adult college entrance examination and got accepted by the university. In 2005, he decided to go for a postgraduate(研究生) education. In order to pass the English test, he tried his best to memorize a dictionary. He succeeded in studying in Guizhou University in 2007. However, he wasn’t satisfied with this achievement, as he wanted to be a teacher. In 2013, he decided to pursue a PhD degree. He failed in 2013 and 2014, but was accepted by Central China Normal University in 2015 and graduated in 2018.

Now he teaches in Guizhou Education University. “I hope my story can touch the students and help them grow in difficult situations,” said Li.

We can’t remember clearly since when we started to take our mobile phones to a dinner table. This happens a lot, especially when we eat out. 65When a dish comes to the table, we take out our phones rather than lift the chopsticks. Later, we post(上傳) the photos onto Weibo or Wechat, waiting to be “l(fā)iked”.

Does that sound familiar to you? If not, how do you feel when others do that when having dinner with you? 66 A study discovers that what we get used to doing is not so good.

To test this, some researchers did an experiment. The result is surprising. 67花時間給食物拍照使得食物沒那么美味。In the experiment, some people were asked to take photos before they could enjoy food. It showed that the more photos they took, the worse the food seemed to them.

Besides the result, there are also some other bad influences of taking photos of food before meals. After posting the photos onto the Internet, 68我們在用餐期間會時不時查看我們的手機。“Does everyone like my photos?”

69 The mobile phone is a thing that most people need to use every day. However, next time you go out to have dinner with your family or friends, how about not taking photos of food? Let the food be delicious as it is and share your life with people around you.
