(Mei and Jian are talking in the school. Mei=M Jian=J)
M: Help me, Jian. I have got to organize the school clean-up day, but I don't know what to do.
J: 1.
M: I don’t know.
J: Well, Mei. 2.. It's a good idea to learn what that person did.
M: OK, I will ask Ms. Robert. But I need to get started today. How should I tell other students about the event?
J: 3. Everyone sees that.
M: Great idea!
J: 4. Put signs on the rubbish bins (垃圾桶) to remind students not to drop litter. I can help you with that.
M: That's clever. If we start keeping the school clean, there'll be less work to do on clean-up day.

Do you know what your friends watched on TV last night? Do your friends know what you had for breakfast today? Do you think you are using social media (社交媒体) too much?
1. It is reported that around 2,800 million people often use social media. That’s almost 40 percent of the world’s population. But how much time do we really spend on social media? And what exactly do we spend that time doing?
Research shows that, worldwide, the average (普通的) person spends two hours and 19 minutes on social media each day. 2. An average person there spends four hours and 17 minutes a day on social media. Research also shows that women use social media more than men. In the United States, for example, women spend around two hours more a week than men on social media.
3. In general, it seems we spend more time looking at other people’s pages than adding to our own. According to one survey, the most common social media activities are visiting friends’ pages, reading their news, and commenting (评论) on their posts.
4. It has over 2,000 million users. In second place, however, is the Chinese site Qzone. In 2017, Qzone was China's most popular social media site, with around 600 million users worldwide. That's more than Twitter and Instagram.
Social media continues to grow. 5. And as Internet access (通道) becomes available to even more people around the world, this growth won't stop anytime soon.

How do you feel about nature? After spending hours indoors, do you feel better when you visit your local park? Most people think that nature is good for our bodies and brains. However, humans are spending more time inside and less time outside. For example, the number of visitors to Canada’s national parks is getting lower every year. And in countries such as the USA, only 10% of teenagers spend time outside every day. Many doctors feel that this is a problem in the twenty—first century.
As a result, some doctors are studying the connection between nature and health: one example of this is the work of Dr Matilda in Sweden. The doctor gave people a maths test. During the test, their heart rates (心率) were fast. After the test, one group of people sat in a 3D—virtual—reality (虚拟现实) room for fifteen minutes with pictures and sounds of nature. Their heart rates were slower than people's in the other group.
The virtual touch with nature helped them feel more relaxed. Another good example of how nature is good for health comes from Canada. In Toronto, researchers studied 31,000 people living in the city. In general, they found that healthier people lived near parks.
Because of studies like these, some countries and cities want nature to be part of people’s everyday life. In Dubai (迪拜), for example, there are plans for a new shopping mall with a large garden so shoppers can relax outside with trees, plants and water. In Switzerland, “forest schools” are popular. Schoolchildren study their subjects in the forests and do lots of exercise outside. And South Korea (韩国) is another good example: it has new forests near its cities and around 13 million people visit these forests every year. So after building cities for so long, perhaps it’s now time to start rebuilding nature.
