I’m writing to invite you join us in playing in one of William Shakespeare’s well-known play, Romeo and Juliet. The play, that will be put on three weeks from now, is looking for a young man to play a role of Romeo. I think you are the right person. You are familiar to the story because you have just finished a paper on it. Besides, I had experience in performing when you are in England. What you need it to do is to memorize a few lines and do some practice. It is no doubt that your participation will make the play a greatly success.

I’m looking forward to your reply.

5.(upload) a picture or video from a photogenic spot to sites such as Douyin and Kuaishou is known in China 6. daka, meaning “punching the card”. The aim is not to produce a well-crafted video or beautiful photograph, but simply 7.(show) that you have also been to the places that are popular.

A subculture 8.(develop) among young people who embrace daka as a lifestyle till now. So-called daka zu can be found roaming Chongqing and other 9.(city), checking in at as many hot locations as possible within a single day.

The daka craze may have practical origins. China’s young urban professionals have little vacation time. So workers need to make the 10.(much) of their limited leisure time. Douyin captures the mood with its slogan: “Make every second count.”

    A sea of decisions stretches before us and have a larger impact on our lives. We’re attacked with so many decisions that it’s impossible to make a perfect choice every time. However, there are many different ways to make it. 1.

Here’s one 4-step process that may help you solve any number of problems:

1. Formulate your question. 2. This isn’t always as straightforward as it sounds. But, if you approach the situation with a clear view of what you’re actually trying to accomplish, that’ll equip you to sift through this information critically and find what you are looking for. And you can decide whether the new fashion really suits your needs.

2. 3. There’s lots of it out there, so having a clear idea of your question will help you determine what’s relevant. Information gathering helps you weigh different options, choosing a decision that meets your goal.

3. Apply the information—something you do by asking critical questions. For example, in an email that promises you millions, you should consider: ‘What is shaping my approach to this situation?’ ‘4.’

4. Consider the implications. For the promise that seems great at first glance, try to think about the long-term effects and unintended results.

Critical thinking can offer the tools to make a perfect choice. 5. And if enough of us use it, it has the power to make the world more reasonable.

A. Gather your information.

B. Raise some valuable questions.

C. Can you help me with the decisions?

D. Do I assume the sender is telling the truth?

E. Also, it can help us find what we really need.

F. In other words, know what you’re looking for.

G. One particularly effective skill is critical thinking.

    SYDNEY —Australian scientists have designed a system which uses microwaves to break down plastic into an environmentally friendly by-product.

Head of Electrical Engineering at Australia’s James Cook University, Prof. Mohan Jacob revealed on Thursday that by using microwaves, plastic waste can be converted into biochar(生物炭), charcoal that can be used as a soil conditioner.

“We are developing a processing room, which could process many kinds of plastic materials, up to 5 kilograms of waste,” Jacob said. “It will be a typical example system for the development of biochars from different types of plastics under various conditions.” Jacob explained that microwave energy is used to heat the plastic waste above 600 degrees centigrade within the custom-made room, where it ends up as a biochar, which can then be used to improve the properties of soil.

Currently underway is step one of the project, testing the room, after which, step two will involve improving the energy efficiency of the system and maximizing the yield of by-products. If all goes to plan, step three will be to construct a medium scale waste processing system which is customizable and can be installed remotely.

Jacob said that with the average person using 130 kg of plastic every year, there is an urgent need for developing better ways of processing it.

“Perhaps contrary to popular opinion, plastic is an indispensable material in modern life. It is cheap, competent, lightweight, and has many benefits like maintaining food quality and safety and preventing waste,” he said.

However, “abandoned plastics endanger our marine wildlife, and have begun to enter the food chain. There is an urgent need for developing technologies to recover plastic waste.”

1.How does the system function?

A.Microwaves are used to produce plastic.

B.Plastic waste is heated in the microwaves.

C.Plastic waste is cut into pieces and buried into the soil.

D.Microwaves change plastic waste into biochar by heating.

2.Which statement is true according to Jacob?

A.Plastic consumption now is acceptable.

B.Plastic should be abandoned in our life.

C.The system of processing plastic has come into use.

D.Finding better ways to deal with plastic waste is urgent.

3.What does “recover” in the last paragraph mean?

A.Make up for a loss in time.

B.Find or regain lost possession.

C.Extract or recycle an energy source for reuse.

D.Return to a normal state of health, mind or strength.

4.What does the passage mainly tell about?

A.3 steps of processing plastic waste.

B.A way of producing plastic products easily.

C.A new system of breaking down plastic waste.

D.A program designed for plastic use in the daily life.
