It is 8:30 a.m. at the Chengdu Research Base. Panda keepers are preparing milk for the baby pandas’ breakfast. At 9:00 a.m., they find that most of the babies are already awake and hungry. When the babies see the keepers, they run over to them with excitement and some of the young pandas even walk into their friends and fall over!

Lin Wei, one of the panda keepers, says, “They’re so cute and lovely. I take care of them like they’re my own babies. I wash, feed and play with them every day. They’re very special to me.” In fact, many people around the world love these black and white animals. Pandas have become so popular that they are now a symbol of China.

Scientists say there are now fewer than 2,000 pandas living in the forests. Another 300 or so live in zoos or research centers in China and other countries. Pandas do not have many babies, maybe only one every two years. The babies often die from sicknesses and do not live very long. Adult pandas spend more than 12 hours a day eating about 10 kilos of bamboo. Many years ago, there were a lot more bamboo forests and pandas in China, but then humans started to cut down these forests. As the forests get smaller and other human activities cause more problems, pandas cannot find enough to eat and they are having fewer babies.

An education program in Chengdu teaches children about pandas and other endangered wild animals. They send people to schools to tell children about the importance of saving these animals. And the Chinese government is trying hard to help save the pandas. Scientists are doing research to better understand the habits of pandas. We all hope that in the future there will be a lot more pandas.

Beep! Beep! Beep! The barcode（条形码）technology makes it faster and easier to buy things in stores. You have probably seen the black-and-white barcode on    16    (product) packaging（外包装）. In 2022, the great invention is 51 years old.

In 1971, an IBM engineer named George Laurer    17    (come) up with a code（代码）that could be printed on food packages. Then, a complete code system（系统）, the barcode was formed later. The system was used by many    18    (company) from 1973. Before this, shopkeepers had to    19    (record) prices by hand which took much time and energy.

Actually, a barcode is    20    (real) a simple idea: show each product’s information in different numbers（just like the ID card number）, then    21    (include) these numbers into a code and print it for computers to read. Today, barcodes are scanned（扫描）over six billion times every day and used by two    22    (million) companies.

What information does a barcode carry? Where the product comes from,    23    (it) price, production date…It can also help stores always    24    (know) about their products. For example, if there are 10 boxes of milk and a customer buys one, it will be recorded so that the store owner knows there are nine boxes      25      (leave) on the shelf.

In 2014, the construction of    30    (its) second highway-the Paimo Highway started. In October 2022, the construction of the main body of the highway was completed.

They are great engineering projects. In this area, earthquakes and heavy rains happened very    31    (often). There could be falling rocks or even landslides (滑坡). People must build many walls and nets to protect the two highways. Another    32    (challenge) was the snow. Large amounts of snow sometimes destroyed rocks and roads. As a result, the construction of the highways to Motuo was stopped several times.    33    (solve) this problem, people built a tunnel (隧道) that goes through the mountain area.

The two highways stand for the Chinese    34    (spirit) of “never giving up”. They are ways to connect Motuo to the outside world and show how China    35    (care) about people in the far areas.

In some countries in western Europe, such as France, Spain and Britain, the countryside is changing.

Life has become difficult for many villages, and some are    36    now. There are a number of reasons for this. Firstly, young people from villages usually want    37    somewhere livelier and they often move to the towns and do not    38   . Secondly, people move to the cities to find work, as there are often very few    39    in the countryside. Sometimes villages remain because people from the cities have bought a “second home” in the village, where they come and stay at weekends. The    40    of homes goes up and people from the area cannot afford to buy a house there. Another problem is that it is becoming more and more    41    for farmers to make money from their farms. So they sell their land and find    42    job.
