Wetlands—lakes, rivers, marshes and coasts, can maintain biodiversity(保护生物多样性), control floods and remove pollutants. They are also helpful to rice and fish production, transportation and so on. They are important and necessary feeding and breeding grounds for migratory birds. They are the most threatened ecosystem(受到威胁的生态系统).
World Wetlands Day came from the Convention on Wetlands(湿地公约) signed in Iran, China joined the convention on July 31, 1992. By the end of 2019, our country had 57 wetland nature reserves listed as major wetlands for protection under the convention, covering a total of nearly 7 million hectares. ________________, as China has wetlands with 65. 9 million hectares, 10 percent of the world's wetland areas, which comes fourth in the world. China also has some of Asia's most important wetlands, such as Poyang Lake and Asia's longest river, Yangtze River.
However, a WWF research showed China's wetlands were seriously threatened by degradation because of pollution, climate change and overexploitation. So our government has been taking actions to return farmland to wetland and remove some fish farms.
It was reported the 57 key Chinese wetlands increased by 2,479 hectares from 2018 to 2019. Li Yan, an official from the National Forestry and Grassland Administration, said at a news conference, “The area of wetlands in China has become larger over the past five years, growing by 202, 600 hectares and making a great contribution to water quality and environmental protection. Between 2016 and 2020, China created 201 national wetland parks. China had 899 national wetland parks by the end of 2020, and nearly half of the country's wetlands are protected by some level of government. "
China is carrying through on the convention for a continuous development and will make continuing efforts to perfect the laws on wetland protection. Several major projects on wetland protection will be carried out in some major areas, such as Yangtze River and the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei province cluster.

Just the other day, 1 was in a bookshop and found a book named How to make friends with foreigners. As a Canadian living in China for a year, I was curious to see what kind of advice a Chinese writer giving on this matter.
One piece of advice really caught my attention and, I must say, made me feel quite angry. In the writer's opinion, foreigners are an“opportunity (机会)”to improve your oral English; whenever you see a foreigner, American or English, you should practise speaking English with him or her. If the foreigner doesn't want answer your questions, then he or she is a nude person who you wouldn't want to spend time with anyway. I think this advice is not only incorrect, but also may harm the relationship between Chinese and foreigners in China.
Like most other “Lao Wai" living in China, I know how lonely one can sometimes feel living in a culture different from our own familiar (熟悉的) ways. However, I simply accept as part of being here. So far my time in China has been rewarding. I have improved my Chinese language skills, learned about one of the fastest developing countries in the world today and made some very close Chinese friends.
However, I have also met many Chinese people who consider me only as an “opportunity" to improve their oral English. I have had people following me from town to my flat to trouble me to teach them English. I have had complete strangers throwing articles or speeches in my face, insisting that I help them with the English translation. I have had people asking me non-stop questions for half an hour at the weekly English Corner . . .
Friendship for a lot of foreigners is about spending time with someone whose company (陪伴) they really enjoy. So if there is any advice to give on making and keeping friendships with foreigners, I would say that it is this: Treat foreigners as people, not opportunities. Expect to make friendships step by step, over a period of time, not in a rush. If your only reason for becoming fiends with a foreigner is to improve your English, then you will probably find that you don't have a foreign friend for long.
( )11. Where is the writer of this passage from
A. America B. China C. Canada D. England
( )12. Why is the writer of the passage interested in the book How to make friends with foreigners
A. Because he wants to have some more close Chinese Friends.
B. Because he has greatly improved his Chinese language skills,
C. Because no Chinese people would like to make friends with him.
D. Because he wants to know about the Chinese writer's advice on this topic.
( )13. According to the writer of the book How to make friends with foreigners, .
A. his advice may make foreigners angry
B. it is rude of you to ask a foreigner questions
C. you should choose a good foreigner to practise English with
D. don't waste time on a foreigner who doesn't answer your questions
( )14. In the fourth paragraph, the writer uses“I have had. . " three times，because .
A. he had no better sentences to express his ideas.
B. he wanted to show how he hated to make friends with Chinese.
C. he wanted to show how he hated to be treated as an opportunity".
D. he met Chinese who wanted to make friends with him only three times.
( )15. Which sentence may be the best to fill in the “ ” in the last paragraph
A. True friendships stand (经得起) the test of time.
B. Learn about different cultures to make real friends.
C. Friends are about opportunities or personal advantages.
D. There's real friendship between people from different countries.

Dear Sigmund Friend,
My brother plays the guitar very well, so my parents signed me up(报名) for guitar too. But I'm just not a guitar girl. What should I do
Dear Can't Hold,
Thank you for your letter. While your parents want you to play the guitar, mine hoped I'd play baseball. You would be amazed at how much my parents love baseball. My dad was the star player on his school team, and they first met in line to buy hot dogs at a baseball game!
Years ago, my parents thought baseball would just be in my blood and I'd be a talented player. Before I could Say “Thanks, but no thanks,” they had signed me up and ordered my uniform!
Don't get me wrong. My training on baseball wasn't terrible. Our coach was nice and the kids on our team were great. Even though I never became very good at baseball, I did improve by the end of that season. Then something unexpected happened one day. My grandmother took me to the community pool on the way home after the baseball practice. It turned out to be the best time I ever had. I swam happily with a boy called Ben and later we became good friends. Then we decided to join a swimming team.
So I talked to my parents about it that night, and they were surprisingly understanding about my wanting to be on a swimming team. But they said I should finish out that year's baseball season first.
So dear Can't Hold, here's what I think. Your parents possibly think that because your brother is into guitar, you must be into it too. But they won't know how you feel if you don't talk to them about it. Why not let them know that guitar doesn't seem like the right instrument for you, and give another instrument a try Maybe you can give violin or piano a shot.
Hope my advice is helpful.
Sigmund Friend

Wetlands—lakes, rivers, marshes and coasts, can maintain biodiversity(保护生物多样性), control floods and remove pollutants. They are also helpful to rice and fish production, transportation and so on. They are important and necessary feeding and breeding grounds for migratory birds. They are the most threatened ecosystem(受到威胁的生态系统).
World Wetlands Day came from the Convention on Wetlands(湿地公约) signed in Iran, China joined the convention on July 31, 1992. By the end of 2019, our country had 57 wetland nature reserves listed as major wetlands for protection under the convention, covering a total of nearly 7 million hectares. ________________, as China has wetlands with 65. 9 million hectares, 10 percent of the world's wetland areas, which comes fourth in the world. China also has some of Asia's most important wetlands, such as Poyang Lake and Asia's longest river, Yangtze River.
However, a WWF research showed China's wetlands were seriously threatened by degradation because of pollution, climate change and overexploitation. So our government has been taking actions to return farmland to wetland and remove some fish farms.
It was reported the 57 key Chinese wetlands increased by 2,479 hectares from 2018 to 2019. Li Yan, an official from the National Forestry and Grassland Administration, said at a news conference, “The area of wetlands in China has become larger over the past five years, growing by 202, 600 hectares and making a great contribution to water quality and environmental protection. Between 2016 and 2020, China created 201 national wetland parks. China had 899 national wetland parks by the end of 2020, and nearly half of the country's wetlands are protected by some level of government. "
China is carrying through on the convention for a continuous development and will make continuing efforts to perfect the laws on wetland protection. Several major projects on wetland protection will be carried out in some major areas, such as Yangtze River and the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei province cluster.

Just the other day, 1 was in a bookshop and found a book named How to make friends with foreigners. As a Canadian living in China for a year, I was curious to see what kind of advice a Chinese writer giving on this matter.
One piece of advice really caught my attention and, I must say, made me feel quite angry. In the writer's opinion, foreigners are an“opportunity (机会)”to improve your oral English; whenever you see a foreigner, American or English, you should practise speaking English with him or her. If the foreigner doesn't want answer your questions, then he or she is a nude person who you wouldn't want to spend time with anyway. I think this advice is not only incorrect, but also may harm the relationship between Chinese and foreigners in China.
Like most other “Lao Wai" living in China, I know how lonely one can sometimes feel living in a culture different from our own familiar (熟悉的) ways. However, I simply accept as part of being here. So far my time in China has been rewarding. I have improved my Chinese language skills, learned about one of the fastest developing countries in the world today and made some very close Chinese friends.
However, I have also met many Chinese people who consider me only as an “opportunity" to improve their oral English. I have had people following me from town to my flat to trouble me to teach them English. I have had complete strangers throwing articles or speeches in my face, insisting that I help them with the English translation. I have had people asking me non-stop questions for half an hour at the weekly English Corner . . .
Friendship for a lot of foreigners is about spending time with someone whose company (陪伴) they really enjoy. So if there is any advice to give on making and keeping friendships with foreigners, I would say that it is this: Treat foreigners as people, not opportunities. Expect to make friendships step by step, over a period of time, not in a rush. If your only reason for becoming fiends with a foreigner is to improve your English, then you will probably find that you don't have a foreign friend for long.
( )11. Where is the writer of this passage from
A. America B. China C. Canada D. England
( )12. Why is the writer of the passage interested in the book How to make friends with foreigners
A. Because he wants to have some more close Chinese Friends.
B. Because he has greatly improved his Chinese language skills,
C. Because no Chinese people would like to make friends with him.
D. Because he wants to know about the Chinese writer's advice on this topic.
( )13. According to the writer of the book How to make friends with foreigners, .
A. his advice may make foreigners angry
B. it is rude of you to ask a foreigner questions
C. you should choose a good foreigner to practise English with
D. don't waste time on a foreigner who doesn't answer your questions
( )14. In the fourth paragraph, the writer uses“I have had. . " three times，because .
A. he had no better sentences to express his ideas.
B. he wanted to show how he hated to make friends with Chinese.
C. he wanted to show how he hated to be treated as an opportunity".

Dear Sigmund Friend,
My brother plays the guitar very well, so my parents signed me up(报名) for guitar too. But I'm just not a guitar girl. What should I do
Dear Can't Hold,
Thank you for your letter. While your parents want you to play the guitar, mine hoped I'd play baseball. You would be amazed at how much my parents love baseball. My dad was the star player on his school team, and they first met in line to buy hot dogs at a baseball game!
Years ago, my parents thought baseball would just be in my blood and I'd be a talented player. Before I could Say “Thanks, but no thanks,” they had signed me up and ordered my uniform!
Don't get me wrong. My training on baseball wasn't terrible. Our coach was nice and the kids on our team were great. Even though I never became very good at baseball, I did improve by the end of that season. Then something unexpected happened one day. My grandmother took me to the community pool on the way home after the baseball practice. It turned out to be the best time I ever had. I swam happily with a boy called Ben and later we became good friends. Then we decided to join a swimming team.
So I talked to my parents about it that night, and they were surprisingly understanding about my wanting to be on a swimming team. But they said I should finish out that year's baseball season first.
So dear Can't Hold, here's what I think. Your parents possibly think that because your brother is into guitar, you must be into it too. But they won't know how you feel if you don't talk to them about it. Why not let them know that guitar doesn't seem like the right instrument for you, and give another instrument a try Maybe you can give violin or piano a shot.
Hope my advice is helpful.
Sigmund Friend
