The Chinese women's soccer team rekindled their famous fighting spirit to end a 16-year wait to lift the Asian Cup.Having trailed （落后）2-0 in the final in Navi Mumbai,India,on the night of February 6，2022，the team summoned all of their determination and resolve to battle back and tie the game before Xiao Yuyi fired home a dramatic 93rd-minute goal from Wang Shanshan's assist to secure the title.
The victory earned China a record ninth Asian Cup title,which atoned for （弥补）their disappointing performance at the Tokyo 2020 Olympics.China's Tokyo 2020 participation ended with a shocking 8-2 defeat at the hands of the Netherlands,showing just how far Chinese women's soccer had fallen behind the game's elite nations.The huge turnaround in fortunes made the win extra special for fans.
"Although the players come from different cities,we need to come together.We never let our heads drop when we were 0-2 down.The players overcame both their opponents and themselves," said the head coach Shui Qingxia.
The Steel Roses' victory completely dominated discussion on Chinese social media.The topic "Chinese women's team wins Asian Cup" was viewed over 1.1 billion times by February 7，but that was just one of 10 trending topics related to the women's team on Weibo.Countless thrilled people commented that "The whole team is worthy of every praise." After their victory,media and experts urged for greater support for the development of the women's game.A number of Chinese companies have already taken it upon themselves to reward them,with dairy giant Mengniu Group gifting the team 10 million yuan after its heroics.
Now the work is to continue to revive past glories,as well as improve the standard of the domestic leagues and youth training to give the country a better chance of producing more great players.This victory certainly showed that such targets can be realized.The women's soccer team has great spirit and skill.They are our role models!

Growing up,I was often the first Jewish person my classmates had ever met.I lived in Mississauga,Ontario,and was the only Jewish student in my grade — sometimes the only one in the whole school.This difference set me apart.
Every September,I hated presenting the note my parents had expertly made to a teacher I was just getting to know.The note explained that I would be absent during the Jewish High Holidays of Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur.I ______ that my teachers would label me the "Jewish kid".
The real trouble always came as the local new year's festival approached.I was Jewish and celebrated Hanukkah,not this festival.At school,on one day before the winter break,every class would sit in neat rows in the gym and sing songs from the festival.However,the music teacher sometimes played Dreidel,Dreidel,Dreidel,a Jewish festival song,and I would feel hundreds of eyes staring at my red cheeks.As my friends counted down the days until the festival,I counted the days until it was over and I could go back to feeling normal.
Each year during primary school,my mother would coordinate （协调）with my teacher to come to my class and tell the story of Hanukkah.She would prepare treats and materials depending on my age.Every time I would proudly stand beside her as she told the story of Hanukkah and explained the symbols.The children who had attended the presentation previously competed to answer questions.After my mom left,I would overhear them showing off their fried treats to kids in other classes.
My mom's annual visits to my school sparked （激发）interest from other parents as well.Over the years,we had visits from parents who shared how festivals were celebrated in Germany and Italy.
My mom showed me,my classmates and their families that what sets us apart should be celebrated and shared,an intention which I continue to set for myself as I cycle through another holiday season.

Recently,Facebook has changed its corporate name to Meta.The company said it would better include what it does,as it broadens its reach beyond social media into areas like virtual reality （VR）.The CEO Mark Zuckerberg said the existing brand could not possibly represent everything that they're doing today,let alone in the future.He also revealed the company's plans to build a "metaverse（元宇宙）" — an online world where people can game,work and communicate in a virtual environment.
The term "metaverse" was invented by author Neal Stephenson in Snow Crash,a science fiction published in 1992.In the work,the metaverse is a sort of 3 D virtual world.It's not simply a virtual reality game but is a persistent and shared virtual world.Or rather,the metaverse is a whole universe of shared virtual spaces seemingly linked together — you could,essentially,teleport （瞬移）between them.
Metaverse combined at the very least five technologies — they are social media,online game,Augmented Reality （AR），Virtual Reality （VR） and cryptocurrency （加密货币）.Those technologies will bring users to an interactive world.AR and VR are vital for Metaverse.VR serves to present the virtual world visually and then AR will provide the audio and sensors for people to be able to interact.With Metaverse,Facebook will offer not only a texting service but also a multi-perspective virtual touch that feels like a real thing.
Facebook said that it plans to create 10，000 jobs in Europe over the next five years to work on metaverse-related endeavours.The company also has introduced Oculus-branded virtual-reality headsets,and it joined with Ray-Ban to develop smart sunglasses that went on sale for ﹩299. "Over time,I hope that we are seen as a metaverse company and I want to anchor our work and our identity on what we're building towards," Mark Zuckerberg said. "I view this work as critical to our mission because delivering a sense of presence — like you're right there with another person — that's the highest goal of online social experiences," he said.

8. Why has Facebook changed its corporate name？ ______

A. To lead the gaming industry.
B. To cover its extended business.
C. To improve its corporate image.
D. To attract investment for its new plans.

9. What is paragraph 2 mainly about？ ______

A. The introduction to the VR game.
B. The future with 3 D virtual world.
C. The origin of the word "metaverse".
D. The importance of the novel Snow Crash.

10. What do we know about Metaverse？ ______

A. It has a wide range of applications.
B. It offers people deeply interactive experiences.
C. It enables people to enjoy a free texting service.
D. It uses the five technologies to explore the universe.

11. What can be inferred from the last paragraph？ ______

A. There will be fierce competition in the metaverse market.
B. Facebook will focus on designing virtual devices.
C. Facebook will be devoted to developing the metaverse.
D. Metaverse will be the center of online experience studies.

According to statistics published by the University of Scranton,about 45 percent of Americans usually make New Year's resolutions—and the most popular resolution is losing .Of those who make resolutions,a mere 8 percent achieve them.
(1) Are we just setting ourselves up for failure？Learn how to make realistic resolutions and how to overcome the roadblocks along the way.
Setting a resolution to lose 15 pounds isn't a goal that's achievable now.It may be a good long-term goal. (2) Registered dietitian Elisa Zied says, " ...to be real when you make a resolution.It's okay to shoot for the stars like making a resolution to run a marathon,but why not set a smaller goal and train smart？"
The same concept applies to weight loss. (3) These goals should help develop healthy habits that will finally help achieve your long-term resolution.
Notice that these goals are simple and achievable. "Instead of going from zero to 60，from never going to the gym to going four to five times a week,why not start with three days a week,get consistent and build from there," Zied says. "Set yourself up for success and map out your course by making appointments with yourself to be active. (4) ."
You also need to be aware of your current exercise and eating habits to make achievable goals.Keeping a diary of your food and exercise habits can help.Record everything you eat and drink for three to five days and review it. (5) For example,if you notice a tendency to snack on unhealthy fare,set a goal to eat a fruit or vegetable with each snack.Building on these smaller goals over time can help you achieve your long-term goal.

A.If you treat your goals like set appointments,you're more likely to achieve them.
B.Losing weight,as well as getting a better job,is among the most popular resolutions for adults.
C.So why do so many of us fail to achieve our goals？
D.Set between one to three weekly goals that you want to achieve.
E.Resolutions usually involve a commitment to sticking to your goals.
F.However,in order to reach it,you need to take baby steps to get it done.
G.Once you notice your not-so-good habits,start fixing them.

    阅读下面短文，根据所给情节进行续写，使之构成一个完整的故事。
    I reached into my backpack,feeling for my cellphone.I was tired of        talking on and on about her chickens,horses and cows.Worse,I was afraid of having to spend        at her farm.
    In spite of my protest,my parents decided that spending time        would be        for me.My parents both grew up on farms and believed that responsibility,hard work and respect for the land were valuable lessons. "Lessons you need to learn,son," they said.
    "So,have you ever       ？" Aunt Letty asked,trying to turn my attention away from my       .
    "Hmmm,no.But I've seen horses on TV，" I answered,absent-minded.
    "Well,we've got a nice horse I think you'll like.       — sounds like a beast,but he's a gentle giant.The other animals have names too,but don't worry,you won't have to remember their names.If you show up at the gate with feed,they're happy!" she said smiling.
    I glanced at my aunt,angry that I was expected to work.Vacations were meant for sleeping late,playing video games,and maybe skateboarding.I tried to text a friend.
    "Phones don't work well out here.With all the hills and valleys,it's hard to get a connection."
    I continued texting,but she was right — there was no cell reception.
    The next few days were       .We had breakfast before dawn.Then we went out to the barn to get the feed while the animals waited to be fed.The afternoons were occupied with hauling hay,clean-up,and caring for the animals.The animals depended on Aunt Letty,but they also provided her with affection and necessities such as eggs,milk and cheese.
    At dusk,when the farm was finally quiet,Aunt Letty stretched her arms out and said, "Just take a deep breath of the sweet country air!" I，exhausted,was unable to        my work.
