The Spring Fe ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )stival is the most important traditional festival in China. Chinese people have been celebrating it for centuries. It comes in winter. We usually have a 15-day holiday, but in 2020, a disaster called COVID-19 (新型冠状病毒) hit China. We had a longer holiday than before.
As we all know, th ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )e Spring Festival is a time to get new. We usually clean and decorate (装饰) our house carefully, before it comes. Before the new year, I helped my mother clean the rooms and wash our quilts. My father put up red couplets (春联) on the doors and red paper cutting on the windows. It’s said that red is a lucky color in China. In the new year, no matter how far it is, we come back to have a big dinner together with all the family members. However, we didn't visit any relatives and friends because of the sudden illness. I just said “Happy new year." to my parents. At night, I was glad to talk with my friends on Wechat (微信).

Most stores offer big ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) sales on Black Friday. They open their doors quite early in the morning. They try to attract(吸引) shoppers with big discounts (打折). Some items (商品)like TVs and cloths are much cheaper than usual. Stores may even lose money on these items. They hope that shoppers will buy gifts for other people while they are in the store.
Black Friday is a ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) great time to go shopping. However, there are problem. The biggest one is that there are not enough low-priced items. Each store may only have a few. These items are in great need, so people stand in long lines to get them. They may wait three to four hours before a store opens. They may be hoping to get a low price on a TV or computer, but not everybody can get one. Some people leave, disappointed(失望).
The situation ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) makes people worried. Some Black Friday events have been crazy. There have been fights over toys among shoppers. Some workers have even been hurt by large crowds. But most Black Friday events are safe and fun. Still, if you plan to go, you will expect large crowds and a bit of pushing.
So where does the ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) name “Black Friday” come from It was first used in Philadelphia in the 1950s. The police called this day Black Friday because of the heavy traffic it caused. In the 1960s, stores tried to rename the day “Big Friday”. It did not stick.

Stores have held Black Friday events in the UK, Australia, and Brazil since 2012. In Mexico, stores offer a weekend of discounts every year.

Paper cutti ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ng is one of the traditional folk arts in China.It is a kind of popular folk arts and has been popular for about 1，500 years. Let's learn about paper cutting.
Wonderful meanings
Paper cutting has som ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )e wonderful meanings. In our mind, paper cuttings can always bring us happiness and good luck. At the Spring Festival, people put up “Fu”on doors or windows. At a wedding, people also put up “Xi”．21*cnjy*com
The largest paper cutting in the world
The largest paper ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) cutting was made by Gao Xiaodong. It has an area of about 456 square meters. It is as large as a basketball court.
Why are most paper cuttings red
In old times, peopl ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )e respected the sun. Red is the color of the sun. We always regard red as the symbol of hope and good luck. Now, we can still see red everywhere in China. The walls of old palaces are red. Lanterns are red. Weddings are always full of red things, too.
Black paper cutting in Shanzhou
It's true tha ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )t most paper cuttings are red. But paper cuttings in Shanzhou, Henan Province are black. Black is the best color there. Shanzhou is a dry place. The local people make black paper cuttings to wish for rain.

（E）
Have you eve ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )r counted the number of digits(数字) in your mobile phone number Your number has 11 digits. You may sometimes find it hard to remember your number. That’s because China has the longest mobile phone numbers in the world. Why is that
The 11 digits ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) can be divided into three parts. Each part has a different meaning. The first three numbers tell you which mobile phone service provider(提供者) you are using. For example, 135 is for China Mobile Communications Corporation and 188 is for China Unicom. The fourth to the seventh digits tell you where the number is registered(注册). And the last four digits are random(随机的)．
The main reaso ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )n for using 11 digits is that we have the largest population in the world. We once had 10 numbers. But as our population grew, there were not enough numbers for us to use. So we began to use 11 digits starting from 1999. Eleven digits can be used to make tens of billions of mobile phone numbers. That’s enough for each person to have seven or eight phone numbers to use in China.21*cnjy*com
And mobile phon ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )e numbers can be recycled. Usually, the service provider will reuse a canceled number after three to six months. If you call a number that you haven’t contacted(联系) for a long time, you may find that its owner has changed.
Besides China, Brit ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ain and Japan also use 11-digit mobile phone numbers. But their numbers always start with 0. So they cannot create as many numbers as we can. Countries like the United States, Australia and India use phone numbers with 10 digits. Canada’s mobile phone numbers are perhaps the shortest in the world: they use seven digits.
1. Is China ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )the only country that uses 11-digit mobile phone numbers in the world
2. What can we kn ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ow from the fourth to the seventh digits of a mobile phone number in China
3. Why does China use 11 digits for mobile phone numbers
4. When can a mobile phone number be recycled in China

Chinatown is ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) the name given to an area in the middle of London. It is just between Leicester Square and Shaftsbury Avenue. Gerrard Street is at the center and is the most important street in the area. There is a large Chinese community（社区）with a lot of Chinese restaurants, Chinese supermarkets and shops in this street.
In the 1950s, it was ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) a poor area and everything was very cheap. At the same time, the world rice market changed and thousands of farm workers in Hong Kong lost their jobs. They began arriving in London to look for work. They found jobs in the restaurants in this area. Many British people liked Chinese food, and the restaurants were popular.
These restaurant wo ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )rkers often worked 17 hours a day and had no time to learn English. As more Chinese arrived, more shops and businesses grew up. Wives came and joined their husbands and children came and joined their fathers. The community grew, and Chinatown was born.【版权所有：21教育】
In the 1970s and ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )1980s, British-born Chinese started to have a better education and this brought economic（经济的）success to the area. Many families moved out of Chinatown, and there was more space for businesses. Gerrard Street became a street only for visitors and was soon a popular place for tourists.【出处：21教育名师】
Now everyone ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )knows about London’s Chinatown. During the Chinese New Year, the streets are seen with flags and thousands of Chinese go into the streets. For most of the year, though, Londoners and tourists go there mainly for the food in the Chinese restaurants. The best restaurants are the ones where the Chinese eat.

Several Asian hospita ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ls are doing experiments with tele-medicine. Tele-medicine is a kind of technology that allows doctors to “see” patients without being in the same place. It is possible through high-speed communication networks. At both ends of the line, the way of video-meeting lets them see and talk to each other. Blood pressure and body temperature are directly shown on computers.
Tele-medicine h ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )as been already used widely in some countries such as the United States and Germany. Among other uses, village doctors hold “consultations(会诊)” with far-away experts(专家). The experts can also help them during operations.
Tele-medicine has be ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )en slowing to reach Asia because of high costs, besides other reasons. When things are improved, this kind of technology will develop very fast. Chinese University of Hong Kong’s medical school has joined a big hospital in Beijing, and Thailand is building a tele-medicine station connecting 20 areas.
Tele-medicine wil ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )l do good to patients because doctors from different places can see them and give their medical advice. The help is quite important if the disease is an unusual one. It also helps spread medical knowledge among experts.
As tele-medicine d ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )evelops well, its costs will be lower and it will become more popular in the medical field.
1. Does tele-medicine ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )allow doctors to “see” patients without being in the same place

Here are a few dos and don’ts on Holi:
☆ Keep your mouth shut and protect your eyes as much as possible when somebody throws colored powder or colored water at you. 21教育网

Huge Waves Destroying Arctic Ice Faster than Expected
Ice covers m ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )uch of the Arctic Ocean（北冰洋）．Some pieces of ice are huge, like moving islands. As temperatures have increased, however, some of the ice has begun to disappear. Scientists have discovered huge waves（海浪）in the arctic waters.
The waves were dis ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )covered by accident in May, 2010．Scientist Aleksey Marchenko and his students set out on a trip. They wanted to study the icy waters.
On May 2, the ship t ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )raveled east and stopped next to a large chunk of ice around 50 miles from the small island of Hopen. Marchenko prepared to lead his students out onto the ice.
"We were ready to go ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) but when I went out, I discovered many cracks（裂缝）around," he remembers.
He decided to move ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) the ship deeper into the ice to keep safe. The farther in they went, he thought, the harder the ice would become. As they pushed forward, however, the ship experienced small waves, and then bigger ones．Soon, the waves broke up the ice around the ship into thousands of smaller pieces．21世纪教育网版权所有
Within an hour, Ma ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )rchenko and his team saw a wave that was about 13 feet high. The ship's navigation（航行）system finally recorded the largest waves．They were more than 20 feet in height. The waves were so strong that they forced huge pieces of ice to jump up and down, breaking the ice into smaller pieces within just one hour. Scientists had never imagined that the process could happen so fast. The waves in these areas used to be small.
The speed an ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )d force of the huge waves there makes it impossible to know in advance when they are coming. That could be dangerous for navigators and local communities who are unprepared for huge waves or depend on sea ice to protect them. Wildlife like polar bears and walruses that depend on sea ice to live is also in danger.
Some scientis ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ts think people will soon see even bigger waves in these icy waters．As waves break up ice, the seas will become more open, and the waves will get even stronger. There are stormy times ahead.
1．When did Marchenko ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )and his students discover huge waves in the arctic waters
2．Why did Marchenko and his students set out on the trip www.21-cn-jy.com

Have you ever counted ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) the number of digits(数字) in your mobile phone number Your number has 11 digits. You may sometimes find it hard to remember your number. That’s because China has the longest mobile phone numbers in the world. Why is that
The 11 digits can ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) be divided into three parts. Each part has a different meaning. The first three numbers tell you which mobile phone service provider(提供者) you are using. For example, 135 is for China Mobile Communications Corporation and 188 is for China Unicom. The fourth to the seventh digits tell you where the number is registered(注册). And the last four digits are random(随机的)．
The main reas ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )on for using 11 digits is that we have the largest population in the world. We once had 10 numbers. But as our population grew, there were not enough numbers for us to use. So we began to use 11 digits starting from 1999. Eleven digits can be used to make tens of billions of mobile phone numbers. That’s enough for each person to have seven or eight phone numbers to use in China.2·1·c·n·j·y
And mobile phon ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )e numbers can be recycled. Usually, the service provider will reuse a canceled number after three to six months. If you call a number that you haven’t contacted(联系) for a long time, you may find that its owner has changed.21教育名师原创作品
Besides China, Br ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )itain and Japan also use 11-digit mobile phone numbers. But their numbers always start with 0. So they cannot create as many numbers as we can. Countries like the United States, Australia and India use phone numbers with 10 digits. Canada’s mobile phone numbers are perhaps the shortest in the world: they use seven digits.
1. Is China t ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )he only country that uses 11-digit mobile phone numbers in the world
2. What can w ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )e know from the fourth to the seventh digits of a mobile phone number in China
3. Why does China use 11 digits for mobile phone numbers
4. When can a mobile phone number be recycled in China

Huge Waves Destroying Arctic Ice Faster than Expected
Ice covers much o ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )f the Arctic Ocean（北冰洋）．Some pieces of ice are huge, like moving islands. As temperatures have increased, however, some of the ice has begun to disappear. Scientists have discovered huge waves（海浪）in the arctic waters.
The waves were di ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )scovered by accident in May, 2010．Scientist Aleksey Marchenko and his students set out on a trip. They wanted to study the icy waters.
On May 2, the ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ship traveled east and stopped next to a large chunk of ice around 50 miles from the small island of Hopen. Marchenko prepared to lead his students out onto the ice.
"We were r ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )eady to go but when I went out, I discovered many cracks（裂缝）around," he remembers.
He decide ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )d to move the ship deeper into the ice to keep safe. The farther in they went, he thought, the harder the ice would become. As they pushed forward, however, the ship experienced small waves, and then bigger ones．Soon, the waves broke up the ice around the ship into thousands of smaller pieces．
Within an ho ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ur, Marchenko and his team saw a wave that was about 13 feet high. The ship's navigation（航行）system finally recorded the largest waves．They were more than 20 feet in height. The waves were so strong that they forced huge pieces of ice to jump up and down, breaking the ice into smaller pieces within just one hour. Scientists had never imagined that the process could happen so fast. The waves in these areas used to be small.
The speed and fo ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )rce of the huge waves there makes it impossible to know in advance when they are coming. That could be dangerous for navigators and local communities who are unprepared for huge waves or depend on sea ice to protect them. Wildlife like polar bears and walruses that depend on sea ice to live is also in danger.
Some scienti ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )sts think people will soon see even bigger waves in these icy waters．As waves break up ice, the seas will become more open, and the waves will get even stronger. There are stormy times ahead.
1．When did Marchenk ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )o and his students discover huge waves in the arctic waters
2．Why did Marchenko and his students set out on the trip
3．What did Marchenko decide to do to keep safe
4．How high were the largest waves recorded by the navigation system
5．What is Paragraph 7 mainly about
参考答案：
1. In May. 2010. 细 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )节理解题。根据第二段的“The waves were discovered by accident in May, 2010．”可知Marchenko和他的学生于2010年5月在北极水域发现的巨浪。
2. Because they wa ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )nted to study the icy waters. 细节理解题。根据第二段的“Scientist Aleksey Marchenko and his students set out on a trip. They wanted to study the icy waters.”可知Marchenko和他的学生启动旅程是因为他们想研究冰水。
3. He decided to mov ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )e the ship deeper into the ice. 细节理解题。根据第五段的“He decided to move the ship deeper into the ice to keep safe.”可知为了保持安全他决定将轮船移到更深的冰中去。
4. More than 20 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )feet. 细节理解题。根据第六段的“The ship's navigation（航行）system finally recorded the largest waves．They were more than 20 feet in height.”可知导航系统记录最大的浪是20多英尺。
5. The damag ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )e of the huge waters to people and wildlife in Arctic. 主旨大意题。这一段主要介绍了这种巨浪给航海家和当地野生动物带来的伤害。21·世纪*教育网
