What is the oldest drink in the world? The answer might be tea. Thousands of years ago, Chinese people made this special drink. Today, it is part of people’s daily lives not only in China, but also in the rest of the world. In 2019, the United Nations announced May 21 to be International Tea Day. The purpose is to remind people of tea’s value. The cultural value of tea is in old traditions and daily habits. In China, people use best-quality tea when receiving important guests. British people are well-known for their afternoon tea, while in Russia, the beautiful teapot has become a symbol of Russian culture. The more people keep drinking tea as a habit and tradition, the more economically (在经济上) important tea becomes. According to Xinhua, China comes first in the world in total tea-planting area and produces the most tea every year. Around 115 million Chinese people work in this rapidly growing industry. In many poor areas, people live on tea industry. To attract more customers, tea companies are trying to give the old drink a new look. The Chinese tea brand (品牌) Xiao Guan Tea uses fashionable designs to make its tea more attractive. Hey Tea, a Guangdong-based brand that has received lots of clicks online, has won over many young tea drinkers with its special taste. It does seem that a small cup of tea connects everything — farmers and customers, tradition and fashion. Tea is also of value in keeping people healthy. Tea leaves can help lower the risk of cancer and heart disease. What’s more, tea helps us lose weight and keeps our mind clear. But doctors advise that we should not drink too much tea.

Mr. Gong was angry when he found out that his 12-year-old child had spent 13, 272 yuan from March 17 to 21 when playing video games on his mobile phone. Gong made a complaint and required the video game company to return all the money. But “it’s up in the air so far.” Gong told Workers’ Daily. This is not a single case in which children have paid a great deal of money to play online games. The Guangdong Consumer Council ( 消费者委员会) has received more than 10,000 similar complaints from local parents in the first three months of this year. Because of the increasing number of similar cases, the council talked with many online game companies in the province, strongly suggesting that they should introduce useful methods to protect the consumer rights of children. In fact, many online companies and mobile apps have provided a youth mode ( 模 式 ), announcing that parents can control the content and limit the time their children spend in using the apps. However, according to a consumer survey report by the Jiangsu Consumer Council, some of the protection modes of companies such as Huya, Douyu, Bilibili and Team Talk are far from useful. For example, users of all of the above companies can extend watching time by entering a password (密码). Team Talk’s youth mode is no different from the usual mode, which means that children can watch all content. Wang Yihan, 16, from Fuzhou No. 1 High School, shared her experience. She said, “Some apps would only send a notice to check whether the user is 18 years old. The user can simply choose ‘Yes’ and start playing the game. It’s no good.” According to Guangdong Consumer Council, game companies are being advised to introduce different methods to check who the players are, including fingerprint, password or facial recognition ( 人脸识别) when children pay to play online games. 1.From the underlined sentence “it’s up in the air so far”, we can guess________. A.the company ran out of money then B.Mr. Gong hasn’t got the money back C.the company threw the money into the air D.Mr. Gong thanked Workers’ Daily for helping him 2.The council talked to many companies because________. A.they provided a youth mode for children B.they refused to do what they were told to C.the number of complaint cases was rising D.Mr. Gong wanted to get all the money back 3.What’s the meaning of the word “extend” in Paragraph 6? A.Change the way. B.Improve the quality. C.Make something longer. D.Cut something shorter. 4.What is the purpose of giving the example of Wang Yihan in Paragraph 6? A.To explain how youth mode works. B.To warn people not to use youth mode. C.To teach people how to play games better. D.To show that youth mode needs improving. 5.What’s the best title of the passage? A.A Father Angry with Video Games B.Famous Video Game Companies C.Disadvantages of Online Video Games D.Stricter Rules Needed for Online Games

Humans live in a society. Not only verbal (语言的) communication, we also use our bodies to help us better express our thoughts and feelings. This non-verbal communication is known as body language. Body language is made up of things like facial expressions (面部表情), eye contact and body movements. In fact, it came to be used as a form of communication before humans could speak or write. We can tell a lot about what a person is thinking or feeling just by looking at them. Body language is so widely used that you may not realize that you are sending many messages to others, though you haven’t said anything. For example, you might move your head from side to side to express the word “no” instead of saying the word. You might give a “thumbs up” to show that you like or agree with something. You might cross your fingers in the shape of a heart if you want to show love. But since we are spending more time online, we may not have as many face-to-face communications as before. Because of this, our ways of non-verbal communication have changed, but it is still an important way to show our thoughts. Our “digital (数字的) body language” is becoming increasingly important as we change how we communicate. For example, instead of using voice messages, you can video chat with your friends to show them your smiling face. Another way to express your feelings digitally is using emojis (表情符号). “When we are communicating online, we are only showing the content and leaving out voices and facial expressions,” Moitree Banerjiee, a researcher at the University of Chichester in England, told Digital Trends. That’s why emojis can help much in communication. Whether using video chat to show your expression or sending an emoji, don’t forget the importance of digital body language and non-verbal communication.
