Last summer, I was invited to a Chinese summer camp. I had a great time there because I made many friends with other countries. The camp covered a variety of programs, ranged from learning daily Chinese to Chinese history and traditional culture. In a party, we take turns to make a self-introduction in the English. However, I was so shy to speak before other people. I stood there for five minute without saying anything, which made me feel very embarrassing. When I finally opened my mouth, someone couldn’t help laughing at my poorly English. I couldn’t feel anything except my face was burning. It was then that we decided to practise spoken English.

Camping essentials (必需品)
Camping can be a fun and cheap family activity or vacation. But you do need quite a few supplies to manage life in the great outdoors. 1. . And remember to check your camping essentials.
Tent
Unless you’re sleeping under the stars or you have a camper or an RV, don’t forget the obvious one: a tent! Check the measurements and user reviews when you are buying one.
Sleeping Bag and Pillow
Even if the weather looks hot for your camping trip, bring a sleeping bag for every camper. Without a pillow, you would be facing a rocky night’s sleep. 2..
3.
Flashlights are another camping item. Bring multiple flashlights and extra batteries, and also consider buying a camping lantern. Lanterns are great because they shed more light in all directions and stand on their own so that you can play cards or games at night.
The Anti-itch Cream
Keep away from mosquitoes, black flies and other biters. Don’t forget the anti-itch cream to apply after insect bites. 4.. Ask doctors for which products to use.
Campfire Supplies
Matches stored in a plastic bag, dry firewood and dry newspapers are all you need for a campfire. 5.. Each campfire should have its own stone campfire spot and many also provide a cast-iron shelf for cooking on. In addition, there are other camping essentials, such as kitchen items, bottled food and water, toilet paper, first-aid kits, and books and games. All the above can enrich your outdoor camping.
A. Cards or games
B. Flashlights and lanterns
C. Kids also like having a pillow for the long car ride
D. Bring clothes for all types of weather, from hot to rainy days
E. Find out what you’ll need to pack for your camping adventure
F. You and your kids can do a quick hunt for dry wood for your fire
G. Just keep in mind that many sprays contain high levels of chemicals
DNA analysis has revealed family relationships between more than 10 generations of Stone Age people at megalithic (巨石的) tombs in Ireland and Sweden.
The evidence suggests that megaliths, prehistoric large stone structures, sometimes acted as graves for family groups in northwestern Europe thousands of years ago. The latest findings throw new light on the origins and social structure of the groups that built megaliths in this region—a history that has long been hidden in mystery.
For their study, the international team of researchers analyzed the genomes—the complete set of genetic material in a cell—of 24 Stone Age individuals from five megalithic burial sites in Ireland, Scotland and Gotland, a large Swedish island in the Baltic Sea.
This analysis showed that many of the individuals buried at each megalith, who all lived between 3,800 B.C. and 2,600 B.C., according to radiocarbon-dating of their remains, were closely related via family ties.
The results also showed that the individuals buried at the megaliths were related to Neolithic farmers in northern and western Europe but genetically distinct from other hunter-gatherers. This was particularly noticeable at the Ansarve site on the island of Gotland.
“The people buried in the Ansarve tomb are remarkably different on a genetic level compared to the individuals dug out from hunter-gather contexts, showing that the burial tradition in this megalithic tomb, which lasted for over 700 years, was performed by distinct groups with roots in the European Neolithic expansion,” Magdalena Fraser, co-first author from Uppsala University, said in the statement.
1.What’s the significance of the new findings?
A. It reveals the family ties between people in Ireland and Sweden.
B. It implies that many people buried in the tombs were closely related.
C. It indicates the long-hidden mystery concerning DNA analysis.
D. It suggests that the megaliths became tombs thousands of years ago.
2.How did the researchers reach their findings?
A. By interviewing individuals. B. By travelling to different regions.
C. By analyzing genes. D. By studying the burial sites.
3.Which is true according to the latest findings?
A. Some people buried in the tombs were related to farmers.
B. Few people buried in the tombs were genetically different.
C. All the people buried at megaliths had family relationships.
D. People buried in the Ansarve tomb were dug out 700 years later.
4.What’s the main idea of this passage?
A. Megaliths served as tombs thousands of years ago.
B. People buried at the megaliths were recently analyzed.
C. Latest findings shed light on a mystery about burials.
D. Stone-Age people in Ireland and Sweden had close ties.
In February, FEDEX launched a robot capable of replacing a pizza delivery driver by bringing food right to your door, which indicates more companies may soon automate (使自动化) not only processes, but full business lines.
These types of moves could be disastrous to work. Between 1987 and 2017, manufacturing output grew 80 percent, but the number of workers dropped dramatically. This hit cities hard, leading to shrinking populations and the wide difference between urban places we see now. Numerous studies show that automation isn’t equally affecting the workforce across all sectors. While it has negatively impacted a portion of the economy, it has helped to lift up other sectors, such as computer science and health care.
The real question is how you counteract inequality.
To start with, we should train people with the skills they need. To minimize job losses and embrace positive changes, we need to focus on the great value humans bring to the table. Jobs requiring soft skills like time management, active listening, cooperation, and judgment and decision-making, and jobs that are in high-touch industries are much less likely to be automated.
We must make joint efforts to strengthen and fix the holes in the safety net. While the 2020 presidential candidates are starting a conversation about how to accomplish this, cities are already leading by experimenting with basic income, passing higher minimum wage laws, carrying out paid family leave and driving policy solutions that support workers and families.
In the end robots won’t take all the jobs, but they might take yours. What we do about it, though, is up to us.
1.What will possibly happen if companies use robots in full business lines?
A. There will be a sharp drop in manufacturing output.
B. There will be a shrink in population across China.
C. The negative impacts will outweigh the positive ones.
D. The workforce in various fields may be affected differently.
2.Which of the following is more likely to be automated?
A. Bringing dishes to the table in a restaurant.
B. Helping to manage one’s time efficiently.
C. Communicating effectively with co-workers.
D. Helping make the right judgement and decision.
3.How is Paragraph 5 developed?
A. By providing data. B. By giving examples.
C. By comparison. D. By analyzing.
4.What does the underlined sentence in the last paragraph mean?
A. It is up to us whatever we do with the robots.
B. It is up to us what jobs the robots will replace.
C. We need to adapt ourselves to the changes accordingly.
D. We have the confidence that robots will replace no jobs.
