A new trend has popped up in China with many young people abandoning brand (品牌) names to create makeshift handbags out of things like reusable grocery bags and other materials.One example is the “Shenzhen bag”,which includes canvas (帆布) bags,paper bags,milk tea packages that people carry around in Guangdong Province.
Makeshift handbags like the “Shenzhen bag” are also common among young people in big cities like Beijing,Shanghai,and Hangzhou.People find the bags practical,wearable and fashionable,and they can be carried on the shoulder or the back.This emerging trend reveals a new attitude to consumption as young people in China begin to pursue a simple and shared life,with consumers no longer blindly pursuing brand names as a status (身份) symbol,but advocating a simple and low-carbon lifestyle.In addition to the handbags,and regardless of their monthly incomes,many young people are living more casually,in line with a “good enough mentality”.Loose T-shirts,Crocs,and canvas bags are the basically standard mode.
“Consumers today are becoming more mature and rational.They are pursuing smarter consumption through careful consideration and calculation to find the cheapest,most practical,cost-effective way of shopping,” says Wang Ning,a sociology professor at Nanjing's Southeast University.
Economists believe that China's Generation Z no longer blindly pursues brands and luxury goods or buys things for brand names and status.Instead,they pay more attention to their actual needs,quality,and experience of buying,and prefer sharing and second-hand purchases.They also advocate environmental protection and sustainable consumption.
Price-aware Chinese consumers have also begun to place a greater emphasis on their inner selves.Driven by rational consumption,many young people no longer save to buy a brand-name bag,but for self-improvement.
The new handbag trend has also created business opportunities.Reusing packaging used for food brands as handbags results in mobile advertising for the associated brands,and the phenomenon of the “Shenzhen bag” has also benefited paper bag companies.

(2024·湖北荆州二模)
In today's world,where the consequences of climate change are becoming increasingly evident,the need for energy conservation has never been more pressing. 1 .
Use your laptop more than your desktop.
Laptops use an average of 20 to 50 watts of electricity to run,whereas desktop computers use an average of 60 to 200 watts of electricity to run.The reason for this is that laptops run off of battery power and desktops are continuously plugged into a power source that drains energy.
2 .Not only does this help reduce your energy usage,but it also optimizes your laptop's battery life to last longer.
Charge your phone in airplane mode and before bedtime.
While charging,switch your phone to airplane mode,so that the phone does not slow down the charging process by continually burning energy trying to connect with cell phone towers and plot your location with its GPS function.When you switch to airplane mode,your phone charges more quickly.
The brighter the screen setting is,the more power it uses and vibration uses more energy than a ringtone. 3 ,therefore less energy consumption.And remember—unplug your charger if not in use!
Unplug mobile phone and laptop chargers.
Always unplug electronics and appliances when not in use. 4 .When the power strip is left on,the devices plugged into it continue to use energy and actually increase your energy usage.The Northern Resources Defense Council found that devices in sleep or standby mode account for about one quarter of all residential energy consumption.
5 .
Reduce your carbon footprint by organizing your files and eliminating unnecessary data from cloud storage! Companies offering cloud data storage need warehouses filled with servers running non-stop.These data centers consume massive amounts of energy since they require AC to avoid overheating.
A.Low Power Mode also saves battery life
B.Delete unwanted files from cloud storage
C.Saving energy is now easier with these tips from UNICEF
D.Therefore,energy conservation has never been more pressing
E.Unused electronic appliances may produce harm to the environment
F.De-energization will save you energy,money,and can prevent electrical fires
G.Make sure to unplug your laptop from the power source once it's fully charged
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一些节能的建议。
1.C [根据上文内容以及下文主要介绍了一些节能的建议可知,本句为过渡句。故C项符合语境。]
2.G [根据本段下文可知,本句主要在说明优化笔记本电池寿命的具体方法。故G项符合语境。]
3.A [根据上文“The brighter the screen setting is,the more power it uses and vibration uses more energy than a ringtone.”以及下文“therefore less energy consumption”可知,本句主要说明可以减少能源消耗的做法。故A项符合语境。]
4.F [根据上文“Always unplug electronics and appliances when not in use.”可知,上文提到不使用的电子产品和电器一定要拔掉插头,即断电,本句承接上文说明这么做的好处。故F项符合语境。]
5.B [根据本段内容可知,本段的建议主要关于云储存。B选项中cloud storage对应下文内容。故B项符合语境。]

I first met Bo when I volunteered to be a docent(讲解员) at the zoo.It was a summer program our school participated in,where biology students earned extra credits by teaching little kids about some of the animals.I needed to increase my biology grade,so I asked my friend Sue Wang to be my partner.“Melanie,I'll do this with you,” she said,“but I'll do the talking.No way will I handle the animals!” That was OK with me.
During the training course,our instructor,Mr.Lindsey came to Sue and me and said,“OK,girls,your animal is a boa(蟒蛇).” I felt myself go cold.“I have to handle a boa?”
That night,I had a nightmare.I was carrying the snake around a classroom,showing the kids,when all of a sudden it started constricting(收紧).It squeezed and squeezed,and I couldn't breathe! I woke up in a sweat,my body rigid.
Next day I told my instructor.“Sure you can do it,” he said.He slid the door of the snake carrier open.“Now put your elbow in—slowly—and wait for him to crawl on your arm.Good,that's the way.” He wasn't wet or slimy.He was dry and soft! But it was scary! Mr.Lindsey stood beside me.“Relax,Melanie.You need to show him you aren't afraid.He needs to trust you,and you need to trust him.” Yeah,right.He didn't do anything.Awesome! I named him Bo.After a few school visits,I began to really like my boa and was pretty much at ease with him.
Then came the day I will never forget.As usual,I opened the carrier and took him out.After Sue talked about how boas live mostly in rain forests in Central and South America,I walked around the classroom,saying,“Don't be afraid.See,he is nice.You can touch him gently,here,on his back.His name is Bo.”
Most of the kids actually did touch him,and everything went fine until one boy,for some unknown reasons,tapped Bo on the head.I froze.
注意:续写词数应为150左右。
My worst nightmare came true! _______________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
I closed the carrier and signaled the kids to come inside.______________ ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【参考范文】
My worst nightmare came true!He suddenly rushed forward.The next moment,he crawled around the wrist of a terrified little girl.She screamed,and all the other children scattered,horrified.My heart stopped.I knew I had to act fast.Gently,but firmly,I reached out and started to removed the snake from the girl's arm.“It's OK; it's OK,” I murmured,trying to comfort both her and Bo.Mr.Lindsey rushed over and took the other end of the snake,guiding it back into its carrier.The little girl,still shaking,was led away by her teacher.The other children stood watching,wide-eyed.
I closed the carrier and signaled the kids to come inside.I knew they were scared,but I also knew that this was a teachable moment.I gathered them around me and explained that Bo had just defended himself.I stressed the importance of respecting animals and their space.Then,slowly,one by one,the children came forward to look at the carrier.They were still cautious,but their curiosity had won over their fear.I smiled and nodded at Mr.Lindsey,who gave me a thumbs up.That day,I not only tamed a snake,but I also taught a valuable lesson about understanding and empathy.I knew then that my experience with Bo would be one I would cherish forever.

Laptops use an average of 20 to 50 watts of electricity to run,whereas desktop computers use an average of 60 to 200 watts of electricity to run.The reason for this is that laptops run off of battery power and desktops are continuously plugged into a power source that drains energy.
2 .Not only does this help reduce your energy usage,but it also optimizes your laptop's battery life to last longer.
Charge your phone in airplane mode and before bedtime.
While charging,switch your phone to airplane mode,so that the phone does not slow down the charging process by continually burning energy trying to connect with cell phone towers and plot your location with its GPS function.When you switch to airplane mode,your phone charges more quickly.
The brighter the screen setting is,the more power it uses and vibration uses more energy than a ringtone. 3 ,therefore less energy consumption.And remember—unplug your charger if not in use!
Unplug mobile phone and laptop chargers.
Always unplug electronics and appliances when not in use. 4 .When the power strip is left on,the devices plugged into it continue to use energy and actually increase your energy usage.The Northern Resources Defense Council found that devices in sleep or standby mode account for about one quarter of all residential energy consumption.
5 .
Reduce your carbon footprint by organizing your files and eliminating unnecessary data from cloud storage! Companies offering cloud data storage need warehouses filled with servers running non-stop.These data centers consume massive amounts of energy since they require AC to avoid overheating.

I first met Bo when I volunteered to be a docent(讲解员) at the zoo.It was a summer program our school participated in,where biology students earned extra credits by teaching little kids about some of the animals.I needed to increase my biology grade,so I asked my friend Sue Wang to be my partner.“Melanie,I'll do this with you,” she said,“but I'll do the talking.No way will I handle the animals!” That was OK with me.
During the training course,our instructor,Mr.Lindsey came to Sue and me and said,“OK,girls,your animal is a boa(蟒蛇).” I felt myself go cold.“I have to handle a boa?”
That night,I had a nightmare.I was carrying the snake around a classroom,showing the kids,when all of a sudden it started constricting(收紧).It squeezed and squeezed,and I couldn't breathe! I woke up in a sweat,my body rigid.
Next day I told my instructor.“Sure you can do it,” he said.He slid the door of the snake carrier open.“Now put your elbow in—slowly—and wait for him to crawl on your arm.Good,that's the way.” He wasn't wet or slimy.He was dry and soft! But it was scary! Mr.Lindsey stood beside me.“Relax,Melanie.You need to show him you aren't afraid.He needs to trust you,and you need to trust him.” Yeah,right.He didn't do anything.Awesome! I named him Bo.After a few school visits,I began to really like my boa and was pretty much at ease with him.
Then came the day I will never forget.As usual,I opened the carrier and took him out.After Sue talked about how boas live mostly in rain forests in Central and South America,I walked around the classroom,saying,“Don't be afraid.See,he is nice.You can touch him gently,here,on his back.His name is Bo.”
Most of the kids actually did touch him,and everything went fine until one boy,for some unknown reasons,tapped Bo on the head.I froze.
