Fall into some good fiction
With the vacation around the corner, it's almost time to drop your textbooks and enjoy some personal reading. Recently, the Young Adult Library Service Association in the US and the Guardian released their top 10 young adult novels of 2019. These stories feature characters your age. You're sure to find one you'll love.
The Poet X
Unlike many who consider their lives dull, Xiomara Batista in Dominican-American writer Elizabeth Acevedo's The Poet X lives a life full of struggles.

"Acevedo has amplified (放大) the voices of girls," US author Ibi Zoboi commented.
Deeplight
Though having great adventures may be impossible in reality, it can be achieved through reading. In UK writer Frances Hardinge's book Deeplight, readers can follow two friends — Hark and Jelt - to explore the deep seas with many mysterious gods and monsters. In face of the dangerous enemies, the two boys never surrender. They bravely fight against villains (反派).
“Deeplight is a non-stop ambitious and magical read about friendship set in a strange and fantastical world," a reader commented on the Reading Zone website.
Forest of a Thousand Lanterns
Vietnamese-American writer Julie C. Dao's Forest of a Thousand Lanterns combines Chinese history and the Snow White fairy tale.
It follows Xifeng as she goes from being a poor village girl to the Empress' lady in waiting (侍女) and has her sights set on being the next Empress. Similar to the Maleficent (《沉睡魔咒》) movies, Dao shows us the rise of a villain as Xifeng schemes her way into the palace

Picture a young Chinese woman in a field, dressed in traditional clothing, as she picks flowers to create makeup for her cheeks. Imagine the same person making a bamboo sofa, cooking soy sauce from scratch and cooking up all sorts of delicious dishes.
It may sound hard to believe, but such a person exists in modern China, and her name is Li Ziqi. On Dec 14, 2019 she won Person of the Year in the category of cultural influence awarded by China Newsweek.
With a fan base of more than 21 million people on Sina Weibo and 7 million followers on video-sharing site YouTube, Li has made a name for herself in a series of videos that show a pre-industrial Chinese way of life in rural Sichuan province. "I want to do my part to let more people know about Chinese culture," the vlogger told China.org.cn. "Much of the popularity of my videos can be attributed to the attraction of Chinese culture.'
Li seems to be a master of all kinds of skills - cooking, paining, designing and farming. She raises silkworms to sew a quilt for her grandmother and grows plants. Many videos show her picking seasonal ingredients from her own garden and cooking them up with her wood-fired wok (锅). A warm bowl of soup for the winter, a lighter plate of noodles for the summer, Li follows the seasons in her cooking, as China's traditional 24 solar terms also do, and makes food suitable for the particular climate.
“She told the stories of China's culture and that of China," the official Sina Weibo account of China Central Television noted. The success of Li Zigi also comes from her "passion for life, for her home and for her culture".
Indeed, Li's simple pleasures amaze people living in the hustle and bustle of big cities.
"In today's society, many feel stressed," she told the South China Moming Post. "When they watch my videos at the end of a busy day, I want them to relax and experience something nice, to take away some of their anxiety and stress."

Breakdancing is close to becoming an Olympic sport after the organizers of the 2024 Paris Olympics announced on Thursday that they will propose four additional sports, including newcomer breakdancing and the other three sports-surfing, skateboarding and sport climbing-to the Games in 2024.
"Breakdancing is a fantastic opportunity to be really in line with the story that Paris 2024wants to tell. We want those Games in connection with creativity, connected with the youth, more urban, more out of the stadiums. We look forward to working with breakdancing to propose a new experience." Paris 2024 President Tony Estanguet told Xinhua.
Breakdancing is a sport which can be played anytime and anywhere in urban and other environments. It has no previous appearance at the Summer Olympic Games, but was included at the Summer Youth Olympic Games in Buenos Aires in 2018.
"Right from the beginning, our aim was to offer Games that would have an impact and the element of surprise. This is why we have chosen to present the IOC (International Olympic Committee) with four sports that are as creative, appealing to the youth and in line with our vision.
We are certain that breakdancing, skateboarding, sport climbing and surfing will contribute to strengthen our project," Estanguet added.
The organizers seek to deliver three key principles in hosting the Games: sustainable and socially-responsible Games in accordance with the 10C's New Norm (规则), Games in keeping with the times and inspire new audiences and attract young people, and Games reflecting the identity of Paris 2024, which is spectacular, culturally relevant, engaging, accessible and inclusive.
Under the new IOC rules, Olympic host cities can select sports and propose them for inclusion in those Games if they are popular in that country and add to the Games appeal. The inclusion still needs to be pubberstamped by the IOC which is expected to make the final decision after the 2020Tokyo Olympics
28. What is mentioned about the 2024 Olympic Games in the first paragraph?
A. They will be much more organized under new IOC rules.
B New sports events will be included.
C. They will attract more younger audiences than ever.
D. They will spread the local culture worldwide.
29. What can we learn about breakdancing?

B. It is the symbol of Paris.
C. It can be played either indoors or outdoors.
D. It is accepted as an Olympic sport at the 2024 Paris Olympics.
30. Why do the Paris organizers propose inclusion of the four sports?
A. Because they well represent the youth of the country.
B. Because they will make Paris more artistic and urban
C. Because they will tell the story of the city
D. Because they will help attract young people.
31. What is the closest in meaning to the underlined word in the last paragraph?
A. Approved. B. Canceled C. Submitted. D. Designed.
Few people can resist the lure (诱惑) of a delicious ice cream, especially on a hot day. The only thing that spoils the fun is that the treat is hard to enjoy slowly often ending up with a sticky, melted mess. Now, researchers from Colombia's Pontificia Bolivariana University may have found an unlikely partner to help solve this age-old problem- cellulose fiber (纤维素) extracted from banana plant waste.
Bananas, as you probably know, grow in bunches on a tree-like plant. Each bunch is attached to a central stalk, called a rahis (叶轴),which is thrown once the fruit has been harvested. The team, led by Dr. Rotin Zuluaga Gallego, began by extracting cellulose nanofibrils (CNs) from powdered rachis. The tasteless, odorless macro fibers, thousands of times smaller than the width of a human hair, were then added in various concentrations to 100 grams of ice cream mix.
With the right amount of CNFs mixed in, the dessert lasted longer in its frozen state than conventional ice cream, extending both its shelf life and the amount of time the treat can be enjoyed. Even more exciting was that the fibers increased the stickiness of low-fat ice cream to levels higher than the full-fat one. Since this is what determines the frozen treat's creaminess and texture, CNFs could help create healthier ice cream without compromising on taste.
The researchers, who presented their findings at the American Chemical Society (ACS) meeting in New Orleans on March 21, 2018, next plan to investigate how different types of fat, such as coconut oil, affect the behavior of CNFs in other frozen treats.
The Colombian researchers are not the only one working on creating a slower-melting ice cream. In 2015, scientists at the University of Dundee in Scotland found that a naturally occurring protein called BSIA (Bacterial Surface Layer A) was remarkably effective in keeping the treat frozen for longer periods of time. With both teams competing to be the first to get to market, the future of everyone's favorite dessert certainly looks promising
32. What prevents people enjoying an ice cream slowly?
A. A kind of fiber from banana. B. The ice cream's stickiness.
C. The hot weather. D. The ice cream's quick melting.
33. Why were CNFs added to ice cream mix?
A. To improve is flavor. B. To reduce its fat content.
C. To make it melt more slowly. D. To add to its nutrition.
34. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?
A. Ice cream with BsIA has been on sale at the market.
B. Slowly enjoying an ice cream will soon become a reality.
C. CNFs are more useful and effective than BslA.
D. The Colombian research team has taken the lead in the competition with the Scottish team.
35. What's the author's attitude towards the finding of CNFs?
A. Positive. B. Casual. C. Defensive D. Suspicious.

Every day, we have to deal with newer distractions like smartphones and advertisements as well as traditional ones, such as loud fellow coworkers and a disorganized home and workspace. 36 These are the top three that you should avoid.
1. The Internet and media
Although the Internet and social media have gifted us with instant access to information, they have become a big source of distraction. According to a research, the average person spends about three hours or more a day on their phones, which means a huge cost in productivity. To reduce the amount of time spent on the social media, you'd better limit the number of apps and social media platforms on your phone. 37
2. People who are unsupportive and exhaust you
There are people whose presence can be a major drain (榨干) on your time and energy. 38 We must be careful in dealing with these type of individuals. 39 You also have to learn how to say no and replace such people with those who support you and who you can ask for help.
3. A disorganized environment and schedule
40 Along with an organized environment, we need to ensure that our activities are scheduled in a timely manner. A clear and well thought-out plan helps us avoid wasting time on unimportant tasks, and focus on those that count. You'll establish a low in your activities, while steadily making progress in your plans.
A. These measures ensures you don't go too far.
B. To avoid these, break the circle that affects your life.
C. Untidy places often affect your attention and increase tress levels.
D. The bottom line is that you should either build boundaries or cut them out.
E. To attain lasting success and fulfillment you should remove the time wasters in the life.
F. Set a timer while you're browsing the Internet for fun, and get off when the timer goes off.

Dear Peter,
How is everything going? On behalf of our classmates, I am writing to express our deepest gratitude and concern for you and also keep you informed of our English learning situation.
During the COVID-19 epidemic, not only do we watch online English classes to review and consolidate what we have learned, but we also spare some time to practise spoken English through online applications since the oral English test is drawing near. To our delight, we find that this kind of drilling does contribute to our language fluency. However, it seems that our pronunciation doesn’t get much improved because we could not tell whether we speak accurately and we are wondering how to solve this problem.
We would really appreciate it if you could give us your constructive suggestions. Please take care of yourself and we are all looking forward to meeting you soon.
Yours, Li Hua

"I want to do my part to let more people know about Chinese culture," the vlogger told China.org.cn. "Much of the popularity of my videos can be attributed to the attraction of Chinese culture.'
Li seems to be a master of all kinds of skills - cooking, paining, designing and farming. She raises silkworms to sew a quilt for her grandmother and grows plants. Many videos show her picking seasonal ingredients from her own garden and cooking them up with her wood-fired wok (锅). A warm bowl of soup for the winter, a lighter plate of noodles for the summer, Li follows the seasons in her cooking, as China's traditional 24 solar terms also do, and makes food suitable for the particular climate.
“She told the stories of China's culture and that of China," the official Sina Weibo account of China Central Television noted. The success of Li Zigi also comes from her "passion for life, for her home and for her culture".
Indeed, Li's simple pleasures amaze people living in the hustle and bustle of big cities.
"In today's society, many feel stressed," she told the South China Moming Post. "When they watch my videos at the end of a busy day, I want them to relax and experience something nice, to take away some of their anxiety and stress."

Breakdancing is close to becoming an Olympic sport after the organizers of the 2024 Paris Olympics announced on Thursday that they will propose four additional sports, including newcomer breakdancing and the other three sports-surfing, skateboarding and sport climbing-to the Games in 2024.
"Breakdancing is a fantastic opportunity to be really in line with the story that Paris 2024wants to tell. We want those Games in connection with creativity, connected with the youth, more urban, more out of the stadiums. We look forward to working with breakdancing to propose a new experience." Paris 2024 President Tony Estanguet told Xinhua.
Breakdancing is a sport which can be played anytime and anywhere in urban and other environments. It has no previous appearance at the Summer Olympic Games, but was included at the Summer Youth Olympic Games in Buenos Aires in 2018.
"Right from the beginning, our aim was to offer Games that would have an impact and the element of surprise. This is why we have chosen to present the IOC (International Olympic Committee) with four sports that are as creative, appealing to the youth and in line with our vision.
We are certain that breakdancing, skateboarding, sport climbing and surfing will contribute to strengthen our project," Estanguet added.
The organizers seek to deliver three key principles in hosting the Games: sustainable and socially-responsible Games in accordance with the 10C's New Norm (规则), Games in keeping with the times and inspire new audiences and attract young people, and Games reflecting the identity of Paris 2024, which is spectacular, culturally relevant, engaging, accessible and inclusive.
Under the new IOC rules, Olympic host cities can select sports and propose them for inclusion in those Games if they are popular in that country and add to the Games appeal. The inclusion still needs to be pubberstamped by the IOC which is expected to make the final decision after the 2020Tokyo Olympics
28. What is mentioned about the 2024 Olympic Games in the first paragraph?
A. They will be much more organized under new IOC rules.

C. Because they will tell the story of the city
D. Because they will help attract young people.

Few people can resist the lure (诱惑) of a delicious ice cream, especially on a hot day. The only thing that spoils the fun is that the treat is hard to enjoy slowly often ending up with a sticky, melted mess. Now, researchers from Colombia's Pontificia Bolivariana University may have found an unlikely partner to help solve this age-old problem- cellulose fiber (纤维素) extracted from banana plant waste.
Bananas, as you probably know, grow in bunches on a tree-like plant. Each bunch is attached to a central stalk, called a rahis (叶轴),which is thrown once the fruit has been harvested. The team, led by Dr. Rotin Zuluaga Gallego, began by extracting cellulose nanofibrils (CNs) from powdered rachis. The tasteless, odorless macro fibers, thousands of times smaller than the width of a human hair, were then added in various concentrations to 100 grams of ice cream mix.
With the right amount of CNFs mixed in, the dessert lasted longer in its frozen state than conventional ice cream, extending both its shelf life and the amount of time the treat can be enjoyed. Even more exciting was that the fibers increased the stickiness of low-fat ice cream to levels higher than the full-fat one. Since this is what determines the frozen treat's creaminess and texture, CNFs could help create healthier ice cream without compromising on taste.
The researchers, who presented their findings at the American Chemical Society (ACS) meeting in New Orleans on March 21, 2018, next plan to investigate how different types of fat, such as coconut oil, affect the behavior of CNFs in other frozen treats.
The Colombian researchers are not the only one working on creating a slower-melting ice cream. In 2015, scientists at the University of Dundee in Scotland found that a naturally occurring protein called BSIA (Bacterial Surface Layer A) was remarkably effective in keeping the treat frozen for longer periods of time. With both teams competing to be the first to get to market, the future of everyone's favorite dessert certainly looks promising
32. What prevents people enjoying an ice cream slowly?
A. A kind of fiber from banana. B. The ice cream's stickiness.
C. The hot weather. D. The ice cream's quick melting.
33. Why were CNFs added to ice cream mix?
A. To improve is flavor. B. To reduce its fat content.
C. To make it melt more slowly. D. To add to its nutrition.
34. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?
A. Ice cream with BsIA has been on sale at the market.
B. Slowly enjoying an ice cream will soon become a reality.
C. CNFs are more useful and effective than BslA.
D. The Colombian research team has taken the lead in the competition with the Scottish team.
35. What's the author's attitude towards the finding of CNFs?
A. Positive. B. Casual. C. Defensive D. Suspicious.

Every day, we have to deal with newer distractions like smartphones and advertisements as well as traditional ones, such as loud fellow coworkers and a disorganized home and workspace. 36 These are the top three that you should avoid.
1. The Internet and media
Although the Internet and social media have gifted us with instant access to information, they have become a big source of distraction. According to a research, the average person spends about three hours or more a day on their phones, which means a huge cost in productivity. To reduce the amount of time spent on the social media, you'd better limit the number of apps and social media platforms on your phone. 37
2. People who are unsupportive and exhaust you
There are people whose presence can be a major drain (榨干) on your time and energy. 38 We must be careful in dealing with these type of individuals. 39 You also have to learn how to say no and replace such people with those who support you and who you can ask for help.
3. A disorganized environment and schedule
40 Along with an organized environment, we need to ensure that our activities are scheduled in a timely manner. A clear and well thought-out plan helps us avoid wasting time on unimportant tasks, and focus on those that count. You'll establish a low in your activities, while steadily making progress in your plans.
A. These measures ensures you don't go too far.
B. To avoid these, break the circle that affects your life.
C. Untidy places often affect your attention and increase tress levels.
D. The bottom line is that you should either build boundaries or cut them out.
E. To attain lasting success and fulfillment you should remove the time wasters in the life.

Dear Peter,
How is everything going? On behalf of our classmates, I am writing to express our deepest gratitude and concern for you and also keep you informed of our English learning situation.
During the COVID-19 epidemic, not only do we watch online English classes to review and consolidate what we have learned, but we also spare some time to practise spoken English through online applications since the oral English test is drawing near. To our delight, we find that this kind of drilling does contribute to our language fluency. However, it seems that our pronunciation doesn’t get much improved because we could not tell whether we speak accurately and we are wondering how to solve this problem.
We would really appreciate it if you could give us your constructive suggestions. Please take care of yourself and we are all looking forward to meeting you soon.
Yours, Li Hua
