As we all know, iPhone are made in the USA, but popular in China . They were one of the symbols of high technology in the past. For most Chinese people, They are good but expensive. Some people even joke that they’ll sell their kidneys(肾)to buy an iPhone.

It brings us a question to think about—shall we buy one? It depends on people’s different situations. On the one hand, an iPhone is worth more than 6,000yuan. It’s not necessary for students to use such smart phones. On the other hand, if you are rich enough, 6,000 yuan is no big deal to you , then just buy one!It works better than some other phones. After all, you have enough money, then you can do whatever you want with your money.

With the development of 5G network, more and more people start to choose HUAWEI Mate 30 instead of iPhone 11 Pro Max. “We’ve found that more customers prefer to buy HUAWEI Mate 30 because of the good prices. Each one is sold about 4,000 yuan . If you compare its price with iPhone’s high price, you’ll choose HUAWEI Mate 30.” One salesman in a phone store told the reporter from Yunnan TV station. “All of the phones need to run on electricity. You’ll be surprised to see that HUAWEI’s battery(电池)works longer than iPhone’s We all take pride in products made in China.” He said.

If you want to become a better reader, what should you know about the speed of reading? Some people read very quickly, while others read very slowly. But which one is better? The quick reader may be a good reader when he reads a storybook for fun. But he may not be able to slow down to read instructions carefully. He may read so quickly that he does not take time to understand fully the ideas and information which are important to remember. The slow reader may be a good reader. But he may spend altogether too much time reading a simple story which is meant to be enjoyed but is not important enough to be remembered. So you see, neither the reader who reads everything quickly nor the one who reads everything slowly is really a good reader. Here are four important things to remember about the speed of reading:

Knowing why you are reading will often help you to know whether to read quickly or slowly.

Some things should be read slowly throughout(彻底地). Examples are instructions for making or doing something, math problems, science and storybooks which are full of important information. You must read such things slowly to remember each important step and understand each important idea.

Some things should be read quickly throughout. Examples are simple stories for enjoyment, letters from friends, and bits of news from hometown papers.

In some of your reading, you must change your speed from fast to slow and slow to fast, as you go along. You will need to read certain pages quickly and then slow down and do more careful reading when you come to important ideas.

Drriinnggg! That’s the sound children across the country do not want to hear — the alarm bell(闹铃). This means children across the UK have to wake up bright and early to go to school.

But students at one school in north-east England can lie in for one more hour before they go to school. Monkseaton High School says it’s OK for students to come into school an hour later than other schools.

The headmaster, Dr Paul Kelley, says that it helps students to be more active in class. He feels that young people work better later in the day and a late start may be better for their school life than an early one.

Dr Kelley told the BBC that teenagers don’t work very well in the morning and their need to sleep is biological(生物学的).

This new approach(做法) to teaching shows good results. The school has already seen a drop in the number of students playing truant(逃学) by 27%. More importantly, Dr Kelley also said that exam results have improved by 20-30% over the past year.

Lessons at Monkseaton High School begin at 10 a.m. and finish at 3.40 p.m. However, the school opens from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.

1.One of the results of starting school late is that _____.

A.students don’t do very well in exams B.students become more polite

C.students feel tired in the afternoon D.fewer students are absent(缺席) from school

2.We may learn from the passage that lessons at other schools in the UK may begin at _____.

A.7 a.m. B.8 a.m. C.9 a.m. D.10 a.m.

3.The underlined word “active” means “_____”.

A.乐观 B.活跃 C.紧张 D.消极

A.a story in a newspaper B.an advertisement in a magazine
