   "Nervioso,"he said in Spanish.
   We first met Joemar in midOctober in the San Juan Airport.His father,Guillermo Class,had sold his car to buy plane tickets to get his kids and fly them up from Puerto Rico.The island was almost destroyed (毀壞) by the deadly storm - Hurricane Maria.
    Now,they are settling into their new home in Hartford's South End.A week later,and,using his wife's car,Class drove 16-year-old Joemar to his first day at Bulkeley High School.After a short ride,he got out in front of his new school.Inside,he met Gretchen Levitz - the school's program director.
   "I see you have a new uniform (校服)," Levitz said. "You look great.Are you ready for a good first day?"
   Then he met a couple of teachers.
   "Hello," they each said in Spanish.They asked where he's from,and told him they were happy to see him.Then,Levitz took him on a quick tour of the school before classes began - to her office,the school store,the library,and the dining hall.
   A total of 19 languages are spoken in Bulkeley High School. "We have so many new students coming here from other countries every single day," Levitz said. "So it's not like he's the only one who has that feeling."

  • 1.China has announced that couples will be permitted to have up to three children in a major policy shift from the existing two-child limit,after recent data showed a dramatic decline in births in the world's most populated country.
       "To actively respond to the ageing of the population…a couple can have three children," state media Xinhua reported on Monday,citing a committee meeting hosted by President Xi Jinping.
       Early this May,China reported the slowest population growth since the early 1960s,despite scrapping its one-child policy in 2015 to encourage more births and avoid a potential population crisis.
       A once-a-decade survey showed that the overall population of China grew to 1,41178 billion in the 10 years to 2020,up by 5.38%.The increase reflects an average annual rise of 0.53%,down from 0.57% reported from 2000 to 2010.
       The announcement drew a chilly response on Chinese social media,where many people said they could not afford to have even one or two children. "I am willing to have three children if you give me 5 million yuan(£554,350)," one user posted on Weibo.As a matter of fact,experiment of the three-child policy in Heilongjiang province in the last few years also resulted less effectively than expected.
       It is not only China that is facing such a population challenge.Across east Asia,authorities have,for years,been struggling to persuade couples to have more babies.South Korea and Japan both have used allowance to encourage.
       The policy change will come with "supportive measures,which will be beneficial to improving our country's population structure,fulfilling the country's strategy of actively coping with an ageing population and maintaining the advantage of human resources",Xinhua said.It did not specify the support measures.

    (1)Why did China announce the three-child limit this May?

    A.To completely stop the population from ageing
    B.To show concern over the ageing population.
    C.To increase the birth rate of the country
    D.To remove the two-child limit
    (2)What's the meaning of the underlined word scrapping in para 3?

    A.Issuing .
    B.Changing.
    C.Adopting.
    D.Canceling.
    (3)What can we infer from para 4 to para 6?

    A.China has a smaller population in 2020 than in 2010.
    B.Many couples can't afford to raise two or more children.
    C.Hei Longjiang has the smallest population among the provinces.
    D.Korea and Japan have managed to cope with ageing population.
    (4)Where is this text most probably from?

    A.A book review.
    B.An online newspaper.
    C.A travel brochure.
    D.A biology textbook.

  • 2.Hannah Levine decided she wanted to give hugs to all of the children and families in need at local hospitals.
       Because she couldn't give them hugs one by one,Levine,then a sixth-grader,decided she would use her talents (才能) to do the next best thing.She began to knit (編織) hats,scarves,and blankets for families staying at the Ronald McDonald House at Stanford.Her creations also went to Bundle of Joy,a programme that provides newborn baby items for families in need,and to Knitting Pals by the Bay,a local organisation that provides hand-knitted caps to cancer patients.
       "I love to knit,and I thought it would be a great idea to make all these handmade items for kids and adults who need them.It would be like a hug for them," Levine explained.
       Levine started the project about a year ago. "I think it's just really fun to do,and it keeps me busy," said Levine,now 13.
       Once she got started,Levine realised that her project could be much bigger than the goods she was able to produce with just her own hands.So she sent emails to her school and communities,asking for knitted donations (捐贈物) to the project,she named "Hannah's Warm Hugs".She also posted advertisements at Starbucks and other locations in her area.The warm goods began to pour in.
       "It was amazing;more strangers than people she knew started dropping donations at our door," said Levine's mother,Laura Levine. "We ended up with this huge box of items she was donating."
       The knitted items numbered in the hundreds.Levine made her first round of donations around Hanukkah (an eight-day Jewish holiday in November or December) and later received thank-you letters from the organisations.Levine is still knitting,and she said the project will continue.
       "It has turned into a bigger thing than she had thought," her mum said. "It made her feel pretty good;it made us feel pretty good."

  • 3.LANZHOU-When an international olive oil competition announced its winners in Greece in late June,excitement spread across the village of Daoqi in Northwest China.
       "The award-winning olive oil was made from our fruit," said Ru Ciming,50,an olive planter from the village under the city of Longnan,Gansu province.The variety of olive trees in Ru's orchard(果園)was introduced from Spajye.ai.In the eyes of locals,the foreign trees have not only pulled the city,once among the least-developed regions in China,out of poverty,but they have also brought them international fame.
       Olives originated in the Mediterranean(地中海地區(qū))and their oil,often called liquid gold,is used widely in food,cosmetics and medicjye.aie.In the 1960s,the Albanian government gifted China more than 10,000 olive saplings(樹苗),which were then planted in many parts of the country on nationwide trials.Longnan began to plant olive trees in the early 1970s and experts concluded that the region was ideal for the resettlement of the olive trees due to its climate and soil condition.After years of experiments and promotion,it is now the largest olive cultivation(栽培)base in China.
       In recent years,the local olive oil industry has continued to expand as Longnan has improved cooperation with Mediterranean countries that have a long history of olive planting,including Italy,Greece and Spain.The improved cooperation aims to introduce better varieties and initiate technical exchanges.
       Pedro J.Rodriguez Sanchez,a Spanish olive seedling expert,was one of the early contributors to olive exchanges.He arrived in Longnan in 2009,when only half of the local olive tree seedlings had survived.His technical guidance helped raise the survival rate to over 90 percent.
       Zhao Haiyun,an official in charge of promoting the olive industry in Longnan's Wudu District,said that many more European experts have arrived since Sanchez.They have visited orchards to offer guidance to farmers,and helped companies improve their processing and storage procedures.
       They have helped the district,as well as the city of Longnan,to jump on the bandwagon of China's rising demand for high-quality olive oil,especially among well-off urban families,said Zhao.

    A.Olive oil is named liquid gold and has many uses.
    B.The Albanian government sold some olive saplings to China.
    C.Longnan has a history of about 30 years of planting olive trees.
