Working during the day and learning new skills at night is becoming a popular trend among young people in China. From dancing, beauty, fitness classes to wine tasting and vlog filming, the list of possibilities for new learning experiences seems limitless.
These diverse options, cost-effectiveness and highly qualified teachers have made “night schools” popular once more. Young people at night schools can explore their interests and enrich their personal, spiritual, and cultural fulfillment.
“Night schools enable our generation to actively develop non-utilitarian (非功利的) interests,” said Xu Lili, a 27-year-old advertisement planner. She spent an entire weekend selecting night school institutions and courses through a popular lifestyle-sharing platform before attending classes. Finally, she chose a street dance club that was close to her workplace. She said the atmosphere was great. She has made many new friends there.
Night schools provide a break from work-related stress and allow individuals to explore their passion at minimal cost. The demand for such courses is clear. Zheng Lifu even turned his art training center into a night school in Fuzhou. Within a few days of posting course information on a platform, he received over 300 enquiries (询问) and finally got more than 100 participants.
As night schools continue to grow in popularity, institutions are expanding their course offerings and recruiting qualified teachers to meet the increasing demand. This approach allows some students to explore entry-level courses while also providing advanced options for those seeking to further develop their skills.
Night schools not only support self-improvement in artistic, cultural and other aspects but also contribute to the development of new industries, benefiting both society and economy.
24．What are some of the activities that young people may NOT participate in at night schools according to the passage
A．Dancing classes. B．Wine tasting and vlog filming.
C．Business management courses. D．Beauty and fitness training.
25．Why has the “night school craze” become popular among young people
A．Because they offer a way to make new friends. B．Due to a wide range of options and low costs.
C．Because they are a new trend. D．Because they are sponsored by the government.
26．As night schools continue to gain popularity, what measures are institutions taking to meet the increasing demand
A．Shortening course duration and lowering tuition fees.
B．Reducing course offerings and dismissing unqualified teachers.
C．Expanding the variety of courses and hiring qualified teachers.
D．Only providing advanced courses for students seeking further development.
27．What can be inferred about the impact of night schools on society and economy
A．They are causing a decrease in the number of people working.
B．They are popular in urban areas while traditional rural settings lack the necessary exposure.
C．They are a threat to traditional educational institutions.
D．They play a role in promoting the growth of emerging industries while bringing benefits to society.
Born in Pakistan, Malala grew up in a family of educators. Her father was a school principal, and her mother was a teacher. They both encouraged Malala to pursue her passion for learning. As a bright and curious child, always struggling to be the best in her class, she excelled (杰出) in her studies.

Nowadays, handwriting seems to become less necessary, for young children learn to tap and touch screens before they have even learned to pick up a pencil or tie their shoelaces. Most of our written communication is done through texting（发送信息）on mobile phones or typing on a keyboard. And voice recognition software is becoming more and more advanced－making even keyboard unnecessary!
So, are handwriting skills important to your child Actually handwriting is an exercise in eye-hand coordination（手眼协调）skills, which are connected with achievements in study. Scientists found that developing fine（精细的）visual-motor（视觉运动）skills in early childhood can predict not only writing success, but better performance in reading and math in elementary school. It was also found that kids who fail to write neatly and efficiently are often accused of being lazy. And this may affect their behavior and self-worth. Moreover, a study showed that when a group of children were asked to come up with ideas for an essay, the ones with better handwriting were more active and had quicker minds. In some ways, handwriting helps their brains’ development.
The first attempts at writing can be challenging for preschool children whose necessary fine motor skills are not yet fully developed. But some skills to prepare for handwriting are simple to build at home and in preschool. Parents should provide lots of opportunities for kids to copy and draw shapes and simple pictures in early childhood before letters are introduced. Let your child copy your shapes in sand, or with chalk on a board before trying to draw shapes on their own. Encourage your child to spend less time on electronic devices and more time on activities to improve eye-hand coordination.
Let’s face it－technology is certain to continue developing and more research is needed to find the best ways to teach handwriting to young children. But, there’s plenty of evidence that the handwriting practice young children get can provide a jump start in developing skills needed for a healthy and successful journey in school.
32．According to paragraph 1, handwriting is .
A．easy to learn on a touch screen.
B．more difficult than typewriting.
C．used less for communication now.
D．totally replaced by voice recognition software.
33．How does the author explain the benefits of handwriting
A．By stating some research finding.
B．By giving examples of the kids around him.
C．By quoting some news reports on handwriting.
D．By analyzing data about pupils with good grades.
34．What does the author suggest parents do
A．Keep young children away from electronic devices.
B．Teach preschool children to write letters with chalk.
C．Encourage children to face writing challenges bravely.
D．Help children get ready for handwriting before school.
35．What can be the best title for the text
A．Does poor handwriting really mean being lazy
B．How can handwriting affect children’s self-confidence
C．Should handwriting be taken seriously in children’s growth
D．Should homework be done through handwriting or typewriting
As a writer who shares his journey online, I’m often asked how to begin a writing journey. Unfortunately, there is no one-size-fits-all answer, but I do understand the curiosity of starting something new. Here are some tips which I think could help.
Start small.
Keep a journal or notebook for short writing exercises or ideas. These small pieces can serve as practice or inspiration for larger projects later on. 36 You’ll want to look back one day and see how much progress you’ve made and how your initial ideas shaped your current skills and creativity.
Write regularly and from experience.
The more you write, the better you’ll become. Whether it’s fiction, essays, or poetry, draw from your own experiences or observations. Writing consistently builds not only your technical skills but also your confidence in expressing ideas. 37 It is constant writing that often transforms thoughts into something tangible and meaningful.
Challenge yourself to explore new techniques.
38 Maybe experiment with a different narrative style. I once took on a challenge to write flash fiction every day for a month, and it pushed me in unexpected and rewarding ways. By exploring unfamiliar territory, you might discover hidden talents or creative passions you never knew existed.
39
Communicate with other writers as much as possible. In this way I posted my writing online and have connected with some of the most supportive readers. Getting constructive criticism and advice can help you grow while building a community of fellow writers.
Your writing journey won’t be a straight line. 40 Keep writing and stay patient. In time, the dedication will pay off, and you’ll see the rewards of living a writer’s life.
A．Share to get feedback.
B．Support other readers.
C．A straight-line thing is often favored by fiction writers.
D．Stepping out of your comfort zone is essential for growth.
E．You’ll face challenges, and sometimes you’ll doubt yourself.
F．Don’t throw away your early writings, even if they seem rough.
G．Just like a muscle, writing skills grow stronger with frequent use.

For most people, adopting a pet is one of the best decisions that they can ever make in their lives. In addition to giving an animal a permanent (永久的) home and a loving family, the owner will find the company of a pet brings more happiness than expected.
For someone like Maria Luiza Valcazara, having a pet was very suitable. She was all alone after moving to a new apartment in Brazil, and her solitary (独居的) life made her feel lonely.
So when she found a cute black puppy named Chips, she knew she had to take him home. Maria thought that Chips would be able to fill the emptiness that she had been experiencing from living all alone.
Maria was right. Once she took the puppy home, they immediately bonded. However, as Maria had to work during the day, she was worried about leaving Chips home alone in her apartment. She was also worried that his crying would upset her neighbors.
One night, when she returned home, she considered her fears were confirmed. There, outside her door, was a package with a folded note attached to it.
Marin knew that she was in trouble. She hoped that she would not be evicted (驱逐) from her new apartment because of Chips. She loved Chips so much, and she was afraid that she might have to get rid of him because he made too much noise whenever she was away. Maria was scared and wondered who could have left it at the door because she had little contact with the people in the building.
However, when she noticed the names on the folded note, she found that it wasn't addressed to her but to her dog, Chips, and that it was “written” by another dog named Corote. Maria opened the package first and found a few toys for pets.

M: A study shows that children who watch videos of eating junk food will eat more. Scientists from the University of Liverpool found those who see their favorite stars online eating unhealthy food in videos eat nearly an extra 100 calories when choosing a snack. Experts say children may find it difficult to tell what is an advertisement and what is the stars’ normal behavior.
Anna Coates, a PhD research student and leading researcher on the study, said, “Now that we’ve shown that children are influenced by online stars, our next study will look at whether they understand that, in many cases, stars are being paid to promote products.”
Another researcher Oliver said, “There are many advertisements for foods that are high in sugar and fat. We should have proper control over what our children see.”
Mayor of London, Sadiq Khan, suggested banning junk food advertisements at London’s bus stops and subway stations. Mr. Khan said, “I plan to do all I can to deal with this issue with the power I have and help Londoners make healthy food choices for themselves and their families.” Professor Russell Viner, president of the Royal College of Child Health added, “It’s important that children should be protected from the marketing of junk food, not only on TV but also online where they are increasingly spending time.”

66． The Spring Festival, also known as Chinese New Year, is a time of great celebration and tradition. Families come together from different places for a reunion, enjoying a family feast with delicious dishes. Red envelopes filled with money are given to children for good luck. Spring Festival couplets are posted on doors to welcome the New Year. Besides, people set off fireworks, which light up the sky, adding excitement and joy to the festive atmosphere. It’s a time of happiness and unity.
67．Curious, Maria opened the note and started reading it. The note, written by her neighboring dog owner, Angela, said she had noticed Chips crying a lot when Maria was away. Angela, in Corote's voice, suggested they play together when Maria was not home. This way, Chips wouldn't feel lonely. Maria was deeply moved and felt relieved after reading the note. Instead of expressing discontent, her kind neighbor was really understanding and tried to offer support. Maria felt she needed to meet Angela and her dog.
With Chips following her, Maria knocked at her neighbor's door. The door opened and Maria saw a woman, who must be Angela, smiling at her. Corote, Angela's dog, followed her and stared at Chips happily. The two dogs immediately hit it off. A pleasant atmosphere was created when Maria and Angela were chatting. In the process, Maria also got valuable advice from Angela on how to keep Chips company. Through their shared experiences and the joy their pets brought them, Maria and her neighbor formed a deep connection and their lives became very colorful and meaningful.
