①While history has shown that the economic development is sometimes achieved at the cost of environmental damage, Shenzhen is trying to tell a different story.
②Shenzhen has been developing quickly in recent years. At the same time, the city’s air quality has kept improving. In 2019, the average concentration (浓度) of PM2.5 was 24 μg/m3, the lowest level since the monitoring system started in 2006. The city has set a goal to lower the index to less than 20 μg/m3 by 2025 and reach a world-leading level by 2035.
③One of the most effective ways to curb air pollution is to encourage the use of electric vehicles, especially in public transport, across the city. At the end of 2017, Shenzhen became the world’s first city to make all its public buses, about 16,400 of them, run on electricity. A year later, more than 21,000 taxis in the city were almost all replaced by electric cars.
④When the sky becomes clearer, the city has also made great progress in solving its water pollution. All 159 black and smelly water bodies and 1,467 small ones have been fully recovered. Five major rivers that run through the city have met national water standards (标准).
⑤Maozhou River, one of the most heavily polluted rivers in Shenzhen, started to meet the lowest national standard for qualified(合格的) surface water in November 2019. The standard is that the water can be used for agriculture or sightseeing. This was the best level the river had achieved since 1992.
⑥As a result, Chinese white dolphins and jellyfish have been seen to return to the Shenzhen Bay. And the number of many animals in and along the river has increased year by year.

Maybe you’ll meet a word that you don’t know in an exam. Most students may be nervous if a dictionary is not around them. But don’t worry! There are some ways to help you guess the meaning of a word without a dictionary.
Read the whole sentence (句子). Your first step is to go back and reread the whole sentence. You may forget what you are reading when you meet a new word. Then try to think about the content (内容) of the sentence.
Try guessing the meaning by the background. This will make it different from other parts and you’ll pick it from the rest of the sentence easily. You can often use other words in the sentence to help you find out the meaning of the unknown word.
Think about what else is happening in the sentence. For example, maybe you are looking at a sentence that says, “It was a very sultry day in the middle of the summer.” You may understand each word but “sultry”. Think about what you know about sum-mer. It is likely that “sultry” has something to do with the weather. It can help you understand the word easily.
