As more and more Chinese tourists travel abroad, some of their behavior is raising eyebrows.

According to the latest 2012 LivingSocial survey, Chinese tourists were recently ranked second behind US citizens in a global poll of the worst travelers.

Liu Deqian, researcher and deputy director of the Tourism Research Center at Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, said that Chinese visitors often lack an awareness of being polite or behaving appropriately. “On their first or second time abroad, Chinese visitors tend to forget that they are visiting other people’s homeland and overlook the manners of their hosts,” he said.

Zhang Guanren, 28, who helped organize package tours to Australia, observed that on international flights, the first passengers to stand up and reach for luggage while the plane is still landing are often Chinese. “Our compatriots (同胞) seem to lack patience, and they’re forever in a rush to do things and fear lagging behind others.”

Some disregard (漠视) rules in local wildlife parks: They disturb koalas in their natural habitats by touching them, even though the local guide has warned them against doing so. “This is far from being eco-friendly,” said Zhang.

Although American children still spend part of their days reading, they are spending less time doing it for pleasure than years ago, with large gaps(差距) in proficiency(熟练),according to a recent report.

“It raises an alarm,” said Vicky Rideout, the lead author of the report. “We’re witnessing a really large drop in reading among teenagers and the speed of that drop is getting faster and faster.”

The report found that the percentage of nine-year-old children reading for pleasure once or more per week had dropped from 81 percent in 1984 to 76 percent in 2013, based on government studies. About a third of 13-year-olds and almost half of 17-year-olds reported in one study that they read for pleasure less than twice a year.

Of those who read or are read to, children often spend on average between 30 minutes and an hour daily with that activity, the report found. Older children and teenagers tend(倾向于) to read for pleasure for an equally long time each day.

Rideout warned that there may be differences in how people come across texts and the included studies may not take into account stories read on line or on social media.

The report also found that many young children are struggling with literacy(识字). Only about one-third of fourth grade students are “proficient” in reading and another one-third scored below “basic” in reading skills.

Despite the large percentage of children with below-basic reading skills, reading scores among young children have improved since the 1970s, according to one test that measures reading ability.

The reading scores among 17-year-olds, however, reminded relatively unchanged since the 1790s.

About 46 percent of white children are considered “proficient” in reading, compared with 18 percent of black children and 20 percent of Hispanic kids.

Those gap remained relatively unchanged over the past 20 years, according to the report.

“To go 20 years with no progress in that area is shameful”, Rideout said.

The report stresses some behaviors that have been tied to children being more frequent readers. Those behaviors include parents setting aside time to read with their children and parents reading themselves to model good behavior.

1.The figures in paragraph 3 show that_____.

A. fewer children read for pleasure.

3.What is the Vicky Rideout’s attitude towards the report findings?

D. spend more time with their children.

Why do parents have such a difficult time to communicate openly and honestly with their teens? For this, there are many reasons but most of them stem from not being able to properly understand their teens. It is a dangerous gap because parents will have to communicate with their teens about a wide variety of issues during the most important years of their lives. Thus, parents must know how to communicate openly and honestly with their teens.

Here are a few tips to make communication easier between parents and teenagers.

1. Try not to talk down to your teens. Make them feel as if their views really matter, which not only helps your discussions with your teen but bring you closer to him.

2. Imagine what it would be like to be a teen. Try to remember some of the negative feelings you experienced as a teenager and apply it to your teen's situation.

3. Never make negative remarks to your teen about what he has said or done.

4. Remember how much courage it would have taken for your teen to come and talk to you about his personal issues. So listen respectfully.

5. Don't ignore your teen's feelings because it is usually a cry for help. For instance, if your teen is unusually angry, it may be time to spend a bit of quality time with your teen to determine what is wrong and where he is coming from.

It is, therefore, necessary for parents to strive to keep lines of communication open at all times with their teens. Try to remember what it was like to be a teenager and how vulnerable(脆弱的)you felt. Then you will be well on your way to help your teen communicate more openly and honestly.

1.Why don't teens want to talk about their personal issues with their parents?

A. Because they can't respect their parents.

B. Because they can't understand their parents.

Military training has long been considered a ritual(仪式) that freshmen must go through in order to officially start their college lives. While some question the necessity of such training. Many students see military training as a campus tradition that should be maintained.

Early in February, the Ministry of Education issued a new regulation that colleges and universities should carry out a minimum of 14 days compulsory military training for freshmen.

In a report by Beijing Evening News, Hou Zhengfang, a Beijing-based education PhD, questioned the benefits of military training. “The training routine does little to improve students’ physical fitness over only two weeks’ time. Maybe some disaster prevention training, such as earthquake survival or escaping from fires would be of greater benefit.”

Meng Yang, a 19-year-old freshman at Guangxi University, fainted during training. She said that many students, especially girls, are willing to train under direct sunshine. “For me, military training is physically challenging and even damages my health.”

According to Li Jian from the student affairs office of Guangzhou University, feeling dizzy happens frequently during military training and the school has received a lot of complaints from both students and parents: “But I still think military training is a good thing. Students are easier to manage after the military training. They became more positive about their new environment after the training.”

Although autumn is fast approaching Beijing, the noon heat burns 3300 freshmen on Tsinghua University’s campus. Chu Jinjing, a freshman majoring in medicine, did feel some discomfort while training in sweaty clothes in the glaring heat, the 18-year-old still enjoyed being part of group going through strict exercises. “By going through this tough training, students bond faster and a sense of belonging to the school can be formed. I’ve made a lot of friends already.”

According to the Ministry of Education, the purpose of military training is to teach students discipline, the spirit of teamwork and endurance. But in reality, according to Xiong Bingqi, deputy director of the 21st Century Education Research Institute, the effect is not satisfying. “Such goals require long-term development. It is unrealistic to expect military training to make a difference in only 14 days.” He thus suggests that it should be up to schools to conduct military training in a way that best suits their students.

However, Wang Wenhui, an 18-year-old freshman from Xi’an Jiaotong University, sees military training as a tradition that reaches beyond character building. “From junior and senior high school to college, we join military training to start a new journey. I would feel a bit incomplete without it.”

Almost all of us have been there: A sense of uneasiness strikes us when we see the battery running low on the smartphone. While today’s smartphones enable us to surf the Internet, take pictures and play music, their limited, sometimes annoyingly short battery life has started to make people full of memories of early models. “My favorite phone of all time was a silver Nokia 6310i from the early 2000s. It may be primitive by today’s standards, but it could run for 17 days on a single charge,” wrote Daily Mail columnist David Derbyshire.

But scientists spend no time thinking about the past. They have built an aluminium (铝) battery which could be a cheap, fast-charging alternative to current designs.

You can squeeze, and practically bend it in half without breaking the packet. It is more environmentally friendly than alkaline (碱性的) batteries, and more safe than lithium (锂) batteries – it won’t catch fire “even if you drill through it”, as Hongjie Dai of Stanford University told The Telegraph. The battery is the work of a team led by Dai. And the best part is that it has a recharge time of around one minute.

However, at present, the only problem is that it produces just half the voltage (电压) of a typical lithium battery. But Dai explained they were setting about changing the voltage and energy density(密度)”. “Our battery has everything else you’d dream that a battery should have. I see this as a new battery in its early days,” he told The Telegraph.

1.How many advantages does the aluminium battery have according to the article?

A. 2 B. 3 C.4 D. 5

2.The passage suggests that _________________.

A. the aluminium battery catches fire easily if drilled

B. the aluminium battery still needs improving before it can be widely used

C. the aluminium battery is larger in size than alkaline batteries

D. scientists find it a real challenge to change the voltage of the aluminium battery

3.Which of the following can best summarize the passage?

A. A new battery in its early days.

B. A new trend in the smartphone market.

C. The annoyance short battery life causes

D. The invention of a new smartphone battery.

4.The last paragraph in the passage is probably followed by the paragraph about how to __________.

A. make the aluminium battery cheaper and more environmentally-friendly

B. lengthen the aluminium battery life

C. increase the voltage and energy density of the aluminium battery

D. charge the aluminium battery faster
