Many of the stories are about heroes. And it is easy to remember them because all the lines rhyme(押韵) . With the help of the government, the art form has been introduced to schools in Xi’an as part of their art education.
“Art education is important for students in China. Just as many students learn to play Western musical instruments(乐器) like the piano and the violin, there are many people learning traditional Chinese folk art, including Shaanxi kuaiban,” Yang said.

As a country develops, its people usually enjoy better health care, drink cleaner water, and have more food. However, people’s lifestyle is changing at the same time. They have busier lives. They eat more processed food, which has more fat, salt, and sugar. As a result, the number of people with certain illnesses is increasing.
Diabetes(糖尿病) is an illness that has become more common. According to the WHO, the number of diabetes patients in the world rose by nearly 4% from 1980 to 2014. And the number is still rising.

It is possible to control diabetes with medicine, but there is no cure. There are things, however, that people can do to avoid it. If they are overweight, they should try to lose weight. They should also avoid foods high in fat and sugar. People should exercise often. Besides, they should walk or ride bikes more instead of traveling by car. If people change to this healthier lifestyle, we may be able to stop the rise in diabetes in the future.

About 3,000 people participated (参加) in the 140-minute opening ceremony, with more than 90 percent of them students between the ages of 5 and 25.
“There were no stars, no celebrities (名人) or professional performers. Just ordinary people showing the world who they are,” said Zhang, who also directed the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games ceremony, which offered audiences (观众) a glimpse of China’s glorious (辉煌的) history. The square dancers from the ages of 5 to over 70 performing in the 30-minute warm-up show before the ceremony were all residents (居民) of Beijing and cities in nearby Hebei province. Square dancing is a popular national activity in China, where it’s seen as a form of daily exercise.
The children singing the Olympic anthem (会歌) and the Beijing 2022 Winter Olympics theme song were primary school students, many with no stage experience.
The children singing the Olympic anthem during the opening ceremony came from Fuping, a small country in Hebei. Many live in villages and their parents are either farmers or migrant workers.

Social media’s quick development has recently given rise to a buzzword（热词）culture, which can be seen in everyday communication. Internet buzzwords, different from formal（正式的）language, are a newly-born form of cultural expression that has become popular among young people.
The fact that people prefer to search for similar groups best explains the popularity of buzzwords. In similar groups, people use the same way to express themselves, which makes them feel they belong here. Buzzwords are just this kind of way for people to find such groups.
However, some argue that the buzzwords lead people’s poor language use. It’s not true, for Internet buzzwords should never be regarded as a simple symbol, and in fact, what they are doing is making our common life more colorful. For example, “yyds” expresses that one person admires somebody. Such a special and interesting use of language has led to the rise of the buzzword culture nowadays.
Sometimes young people are short of expressing themselves through the common language. But the problem can be solved by encouraging them to read books. The popularity of buzzwords is not to blame（责备）. It’s not supposed to be wrong. Only by supporting（支持）new cultural forms with an open mind can we move ahead step by step and make progress in the coming times. Of course, new problems would always show up, but what we should do is to think of solutions instead of just refusing the buzzwords.
69．Which of the following about “buzzwords” is TRUE according to the passage
A．They are a kind of formal language. B．They are often used by young people.
C．They are only used on the Internet. D．They have different meanings.
70．Why are Internet buzzwords so popular
A．Because people prefer to search for new words to use.
B．Because they are a great way for people to find similar groups.
C．Because using buzzwords helps people improve language ability.
D．Because they can be easily remembered by most young people.
71．What’s the advantage of Internet buzzwords
A．They make people’s everyday life colorful.
B．They help people learn more words.
C．They make people understand others easily.
D．They encourage people to create new words.
72．What’s the writer’s attitude（态度）towards Internet buzzwords
A．Supportive. B．Doubtful. C．Worried. D．Unclear.

A tortoise (乌龟) was resting under a tree. When he looked up, he saw a bird sitting in his home in the tree. The tortoise spoke to the bird, “What a broken home you have! It’s made of old tiny sticks. It has no roof (屋顶) and looks ugly. What’s worse, you had to build it little by little on your own. Look at my house. It’s my shell (壳), which I was born with on my back. I think my house is much better than your poor home.”
“Yes, my house is made of tiny sticks, looks broken and is open to the wind and rain. It’s ugly, but I built it myself, and I like it,” the bird replied.
“I guess it’s just like any other house, but not better than mine,” said the tortoise. “You must be jealous (嫉妒的) of my shell, though.”
“Not really,” the bird answered. “My house has space for my family and friends, but your shell cannot hold anyone other than you. Maybe you have a better house, but I have a better home,” the bird said happily. After all, a home is more meaningful than a house.
