A
Skillshare
is
a
video
lesson
app
which
has
become
highly
popular
nowadays.
It
will
likely
appeal
more
to
older
kids
(age
14+)
since
classes
focus
primarily
on
professional
development
with
topics
like
digital
design,
technology
and
marketing.
There
are
also
plenty
of
art
and
music
classes
for
more
creative
learners.
Read
the
developer’s
privacy
policy
for
details
on
how
your
kid’s?information
is
collected,
used
and
shared,
and
any
choices
you
may
have
in
the
matter,
and
this
privacy
policy
applies
to
all
users.
What
is
it
about?
Skillshare
has
a
large
database
of
online
lessons
taught
by
industry
experts.
Kids
can
search
for
a
class
by
topic
or
by
entering
key
words.
Each
class
contains
a
series
of
video
lessons
that
are
taught
as
a
lecture.
Some
classes
have
only
a
few
lessons,
while
others
have
10
or
more.
In
fact,
one
guitar
class
has
more
than
100
lessons.
Many
classes
include
projects,
and
most
end
with
a
brief
Final
Thoughts
lesson
to
sum
up
the
class
content.
There’s
a
review
section
where
users
can
leave
advice.
Kids
can
watch
the
lessons
within
that
class
directly
from
the
app.
They
can
also
save
classes
to
watch
later,
and
any
classes
they
begin
are
automatically
saved
to
a
watch
list.
Many
classes
are
offered
in
the
free
version
of
the
app,
and
a
paid
version
gives
users
access
to
a
much
more
extensive
class
list—more
than
28,000
lessons.
Is
it
any
good?
All
the
teachers
in
the
app
are
passionate
about
their
work,
so
it’s
an
excellent
way
to
foster
the
same
passion
in
your
kids,
as
long
as
there
is
a
genuine
interest
in
the
content
being
offered.

Eugene
O'Neill,
who
was
born
in
1888,
in
New
York,
was
a
leading
American
drama
writer
and
the
winner
of
the
Nobel
Prize
in
Literature
in
1936.
His
father
was
a
successful
touring
actor.
Because
of
that,
Eugene
spent
his
early
childhood
in
hotels,
on
trains,
and
backstage.
Although
later
in
his
life
he
grew
to
hate
his
father
for
not
giving
him
security
in
his
early
years
and
a
loving,
comfortable
family,
he
had
the
theater
in
his
blood.
As
a
student,
O'Neill
went
to
boarding
schools
but
spent
the
summers
in
a
moderate
house
his
family
owned.
He
left
Princeton
University
in
1907,
only
about
one
year
after
he
entered
it,
to
start
what
he
later
called
his
real
education
in
"life
experience".
At
the
age
of
24,
he
was
hired
as
a
reporter
and
poetry
column
writer
for
the
New
London
Telegraph.
O'Neill
didn't
cut
a
figure
in
playwriting
until
the
summer
of
1916.
Before
that,
he
had
written
awkward
plays
that
were
hardly
accepted
by
the
mainstream
of
American
theater.
While
O'Neill
was
only
one
of
those
whose
plays
were
produced
by
the
theater,
he
led
the
group
to
success
because
of
his
contribution
within
the
next
few
years.
Between
1916
and
1920,
the
theater
produced
all
of
O'Neill's
one-act
sea
plays.
By
the
time
his
first
full-length
play,
Beyond
the
Horizon,
was
produced
on
Broadway
on
February
2,
1920
at
the
Morosco
Theater,
the
young
playwright
already
had
a
small
reputation.
Theater
critics
spoke
highly
of
Beyond
the
Horizon
for
its
tragic
realism.
The
play
brought
O'Neill
more
public
attention,
as
well
as
his
first
Pulitzer
Prize,
apart
from
which
he
won
another
three
for
Anna
Christie,
Strange
Interlude,
and
Long
Day's
Journey
into
Night.
Over
the
next
two
decades,
O'Neill
continued
to
gain
reputation
nationally
and
globally.
He
became
the
most
widely
produced
dramatist
after
Shakespeare
and
Bernard
Shaw.
4.
What
might
inspire
O'Neill's
passion
for
theater?
A.
His
father's
career.
B.
The
support
of
his
family
C.
Hotel
rooms
he
had
lived
in.
D.
Stories
he
had
heard
on
trains.
5.
Why
did
O'Neill
drop
out
of
Princeton
University?
A.
He
didn't
want
to
study
in
a
boarding
school.
B.
He
wanted
to
receive
real
education
from
life.
C.
He
got
a
job
from
the

London
Telegraph.

was

7.

can
we
learn
about
O'Neill's
Beyond
the
Horizon?
A.
It
drew
theater
critics
attention
to
tragic
realism.
B.
It
inspired
him
to
compose
another
three
dramas.
C.

Chinese
cuisine
is
widely
known
and
enjoyed
all
around
the
world.
Who
doesn’t
long
for
a
favorite
Chinese
dish?
But
there
is
one
interesting
concept
concerning
Chinese
food
which
is
almost
unheard
of
in
the
West,
and
which
is
becoming
increasingly
ignored
by
the
youth
of
the
East—the
ancient
custom
of
“tonic
food”.
Tonic
food
is
food
which
is
consumed
to
improve
one’s
well-being
or
avoid
sickness.
For
instance,
it
was
once
the
custom
for
new
mothers
to
eat
a
sesame
oil
(麻油)
hot
pot
every
day
for
the
first
month
after
giving
birth.
It
was
believed
that
this
dish
would
benefit
the
muscles,
reduce
pain,
improve
circulation,
stimulate
sweating,
and
warm
the
body.
Some
foods,
such
as
goat
meat
and
spinach,
are
seen
as
“hot”,
while
others,
such
as
Chinese
cabbage
and
radish,
are
seen
as
“cold”.
One
should
be
careful
not
to
eat
too
much
of
either
“hot”
or
“cold”
food.
However,
how
much
“hot”
or
“cold”
food
one
should
eat
depends
on
the
time
of
the
year,
how
the
food
is
prepared
and
what
it
is
prepared
with,
and
the
individual’s
health.
The
custom
of
employing
tonic
foods
for
a
healthier
life
also
influences
the
catering
industry.
Chinese
herbal
medicines,
such
as
wolfberry
(枸杞),
can
be
found
on
many
a
restaurant
menu,
either
added
to
fruit
tea
or
as
a
beneficial
addition
to
a
dish.
These
herbs
attract
customers,
such
as
over-worked
office
staff,
in
need
of
a
modest
pick-me-up.
So,
whether
you
need
to
boost
your
strength
with
a
large
helping
of
chicken
soup,
or
increase
your
mental
powers
with
a
serving
of
pig’s
brain
soup,
you
may
find
that
this
ancient
Chinese
custom
could
be
just
the
tonic
you
were
looking
for.
8.
What
is
the
present
situation
of
tonic
food?
A.
It
is
catching
less
attention.
B.
It
is
enjoyed
by
many
young
people.
C.
It
is
well
known
worldwide.
D.
It
is
becoming
increasingly
popular.
9.
What
is
believed
to
benefit
new
mothers?
A.
Chinese
cabbage.
B.
Fruit
tea.
C.
Sesame
oil
hot
pot.
D.
Pig’s
brain
soup.
10.
Which
of
the

best
explains
“catering”
underlined
in
Paragraph
3?
A.
Medicine.
B.
Restaurant.
C.
Education.
D.
Fashion.
11.
What
can
be
a

text?
A.
The

B.

Now
many
countries
work
towards
a
carbon-neutral
future,
hoping
to
achieve
the
real
green
growth
and
change.
The
current
UK
government
had
originally
set
out
plans
to
become
carbon-zero
by
2050.
And
in
a
new
announcement
regarding
the
UK’s
green
economic
recovery,
the
Prime
Minister
has
committed
to
accelerating
offshore
wind
by
2030.
In
a
recent
speech,
Britain’s
Prime
Minister
Boris
Johnson
announced
that
the
government
will
invest
in
clean
energy,
promising
that
?160m
will
be
dedicated
to
building
wind
turbines
(涡轮机)to
help
the
country
“build
back
greener”.
It’ll
create
2,000
jobs
in
construction,
and
support
60,000
more,
by
upgrading
ports
and
factories
to
build
the
turbines.
He
announced
that
“we
believe
that
in
10
years’
time
offshore
wind
will
be
powering
every
home
in
the
country.”
In
Boris
Johnson’s
speech,
he
said
the
UK
would
become
“the
world
leader
in
clean
wind
energy”
and
perhaps
also
in
its
further
green
recovery
plans.
Attention
has
been
paid
to
wind,
as
it
is
a
limitless
resource
on
the
island
that
is
Britain.
Plans
included
employing
new
floating
offshore
technology,
where
large
farms
could
be
placed
further
out
to
sea.
Before
this
announcement,
climate
activists
and
organizations
have
been
urging
world
governments
to
include
climate
change
concerns
in
their
economic
recoveries.
Organizations
such
as
the
International
Energy
Agency
worked
out
a
sustainable
energy
plan
that
provided
a
blueprint
on
how
governments
could
encourage
economic
growth
with
climate
change
in
mind,
by
moving
towards
areas
such
as
clean
energy
and
creating
jobs
within
this
area.
In
the
UK’s
economic
recovery
plan,
the
government
rolled
out
a
scheme
that
allowed
home
owners
to
access
a
grant
that
would
enable
them
to
upgrade
their
homes
with
energy-saving
improvements.
Reported
in
The
Guardian,
executive
director
of
the
environmental
NGO
Greenpeace
UK,
John
Sauven,
said:
“If
carried
through,
the
commitment
would
help
strengthen
the
UK’s
global
leadership
in
this
key
technology.
We
now
need
to
see
the
Prime
Minister’s
newly-found
enthusiasm
is
followed
through
by
knocking
down
all
the
barriers
that
the
offshore
wind
industry
faces
in
delivering
its
ambition.”
12.
What
is
the
benefit
of
building
the
turbines
besides
providing
the
new
energy?
A.
Developing
the
technology.
B.
Having
more
people
employed.
C.
Getting
many
large
farms
built.
D.
Making
all
homes
powered
cleanly.
13.
What
measure
does
Britain
take
when
carrying
out
its
economic
recovery
plan?
A.
Cooperate
with
other
foreign
governments.
B.
Build
a
blueprint
on
fighting
climate
change.
C.
Encourage
the
use
of
energy-saving
equipment.
D.
Seek
the
support
of
the
international
organizations.
14.
Why
is
John
Sauven
mentioned
in
the
last
paragraph?
A.
To
predict
the
future
of
Britain’s
energy.
B.
To
get
people
to
support
the
government.
C.
To
think
highly
of
the
use
of
wind
energy.
D.
To
comment
on
the
new
announcement.
15.
What
might
be
the
best
title
for
the
text?
A.
Britain
hopes
to
power
homes
by
wind
farm
by
2030.
B.

How
to
live
with
an
elderly
person
Living
with
an
elderly
person
has
both
rewards
and
challenges
for
everyone
involved.
16.______.
Both
parties
need
to
be
patient
and
understand
their
unique
living
situation
in
order
to
make
it
work.
Here
are
some
tips
to
live
with
an
elderly
person.
Communicate
with
your
elderly
roommate.
17.
_______.
If
you
don’t
communicate,
you
won’t
know
each
other’s
problems
and
concerns.
As
a
result,
you
won’t
be
able
to
form
a
relationship
that
is
respecting
both
of
your
unique
qualities.
18.
________.
Both
parties
need
to
come
to
an
agreement
about
each
other’s
space,
independence,
and
autonomy.
You
need
to
understand
what
your
elderly
person
is
comfortable
with
when
it
comes
to
being
assisted.
Talk
to
them
about
their
expectations
about
your
relationship.
Discuss
use
of
shared
space
like
the
bathroom,
kitchen,
or
living
room.
Figure
out
finances.
Figure
out
who
pays
for
what
ahead
of
time.
Having
finances
decided
and
agreed
upon
ahead
of
time
could
save
you
from
a
headache
or
even
legal
fees
in
the
future.
Records
will
make
a
big
difference
here,
so
if
you
start
out
knowing
who
pays
for
what,
and
have
it
written
down,
you
are
ahead
of
the
game.
19.
________.
Give
the
person
privacy.
When
possible,
they
should
have
as
much
privacy
and
personal
space
as
it
is
practical
to
allow.
Don’t
turn
yourself
into
a
caregiver.
Don’t
become
a
nurse
without
need.
20.
________.
Always
communicate
first
if
you
are
concerned
about
your
elderly
roommate.
A
.
Decide
boundaries.
B.
Respect
each
other.
C.
Don’t
leave
them
alone.
D.
Don’t
enter
their
personal
space.
E.
This
will
help
you
avoid
problems
in
the
future.
F.
Communication
is
the
most
important
element
of
any
relationship.
G.
But
we
also
need
to
respect
the
need
of
older
people
to
feel
independent.

Experts
say
boredom
is
good
for
kids.
It
forces
them
to
be
creative,
21
their
imaginations,
and
helps
them
discover
new
things.
A(n)
22
in
point
is
13-year-old
Luke
Thrill
from
Dubuque,
Iowa.
Luke
was
23
of
playing
video
games
and
riding
his
bike,
so
he
decided
to
build
a
tiny
house
in
his
backyard
instead.
He
made
money
from
cutting
lawns
and
24
exchanged
some
services,
such
as
gaining
the
25
of
an
electrical
engineer
in
exchange
for
sweeping
his
garage.
Luke
also
26
spare
materials
from
his
grandmother’s
house
and
other
27
materials
from
his
neighbors
for
some
of
the
windows
and
the
door.
The
89-square-foot
home
cost
$1,
500
to
build
and
28
18
months.
Inside
there’s
a
kitchenette,
a
back
sitting
room,
a
table
and
a
mounted(镶嵌的)
TV,
and
an
upstairs
bedroom
can
be
easily
29
by
stairway.
Although
Luke
did
the
30
and
learned
how
to
do
all
the
work,
he
had
his
father’s
31
throughout
the
project.
Greg
Thrill
was
very
content
that
his
son
learned
to
stay
on
32
and
deal
with
grown-ups.
33
,
he
had
some
simple
rules
when
Luke
34
the
house:
“You
35
the
money.
You
build
it.
And
you
own
it.”
Luke
is
now
in

them.
I
felt
more

作文
Dear
Jim,
Learning
that
you
are
interested
in
the
digital
life
of
Chinese,
I’d
like
to
tell
you
something
about
it
around
me.
You
know,
the
advanced
digital
technology
has
changed
our
lifestyle
fundamentally.
To
me,
I
can
almost
pay
everything
via
a
mobile
phone,
such
as
transportation,
food
and
entertainment.
My
city
has
upgraded
services,
and
we
can
pay
bills
online,
including
electricity,
gas,
water
and
heating.
We
can
also
enjoy
reading
from
e-libraries,
visiting
virtual
museums
and
even
get
medical
services
online.
I
feel
the
digital
life
has
brought
great
convenience
to
us
and
improved
our
life
and
work
in
a
way
beyond
imagination.
If
only
I
wish,
I
can
access
abundant
resources
and
better
myself
academically
and
physically.
However,
it
does
have
its
downside.
The
biggest
one
is
the
risk
of
privacy
and
data
leak,
which
deserves
better
coping.
Another
is
that
many
elderly
get
left
behind.
I
feel
the
young
have
a
duty
to
help
them
keep
up.
How
about
the
digital
life
in
your
country?
Looking
forward
to
your
reply
and
your
coming
to
explore
our
digital
world
one
day.
.
Yours
Lihua
