WeChat is testing a new feature that allows public bloggers to add paywalls to their posts, the company said Wednesday.

Qualified bloggers can charge readers up to 208 yuan($30)for each article, and WeChat will charge the bloggers a technical service fee.

WeChat, the most popular social media app in China with 1.15 billion monthly active users, said the feature aims to motivate original content publishers to produce more posts with higher quality.

Public blogging accounts, which can be tun by individuals or companies, currently make money from in app advertisements, which are negotiated directly between advertisers and blog owners, with WeChat not taking a cut. Readers can also voluntarily tip bloggers directly via a function called Zan Shang.

Android users can pay with WeChat Pay, Tencent's mobile payment method. Users with iOS, however, must use Apple's in app purchase service, meaning that Apple will take a cut of as much as 30% for each transaction.

It's unclear how bloggers and readers will respond to the new feature as Chinese users are used to large amounts of free content shared on the social media platform.

Version 1 Wechat will allow bloggers to charge certain fees with different methods, depending on working systems of phones. It’s unclear whether its users are willing to accept the proposal. As the saying goes, there is no such thing as a free lunch. Therefore, I applaud the plan. First and foremost, each article calls for considerable endeavor of writers, thus deserving to be protected by the platform. What’s more, getting some rewards can motivate the writers to compose more original articles with critical thinking instead of following others blindly, which is in consistent with our national policy of stimulating social creativity. Last but not least, an essential component of human rights and has a profound influence both on individuals and the whole nation. In a word, only if the writers' right is well guaranteed can Wechat enjoy a healthy and stable development. Version 2 Wechat will allow bloggers to charge certain fees with different methods, depending on working systems of phones. It’s unclear whether its users are willing to accept the proposal. Sharing is a wise policy for both individuals and society. Therefore, I am opposed to this plan. In the first place, charging fees will inevitably block the widespread of some instructive opinions and articles. Secondly, reading is important to everyone. Nobody should be deprived of the right to gain access to reading and education, including those who are even struggling with survival. Last but not least, the bloggers and platform operators cannot turn a blind eye to their social responsibility when faced with economic interests,Since they are the communicators of public order and social value, they have no excuse to avoid shouldering their duty. In conclusion, it is critical moment for Wechat to have a second thought about it’s plan. 【解析】 本书面表达属于读写任务写作,话题设计到知识产权和收费。考生先要概括文章概要,然后对微信允许博客作者以不同的方式收取一定的费用发表看法。 本书面表达属于读写任务写作。动笔前,首先要认真阅读原文,并理解其内容。其次,认真看清题目要求,在稿子上列出提纲。最后,根据要求写出文章。这篇书面表达写作内容:1.用约30个单词概括上述信息的主要内容;2.用约120个单词发表你的观点,内容包括:(1)支持或反对这种收费;(2)用2-3个理由或论据支撑你的观点。写作的时候,要按照要点去表达,不能有遗漏,要注意准确运用时态,上下文意思连贯,符合逻辑关系。尽量使用自己会的单词、词组和句型,同时也要注意使用一些高级语法和句型,使自己的文章更有文采。

请认真阅读下列短文,并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词。注意:每个空格只填1个单词。

The story of the emperor’s new clothes is one of Andersen's best-known fables. Conmen fool the monarch into believing they have made him a fabulous suit that the unworthy will be unable to see. Courtiers dare not say that the emperor is naked; it takes a child to point out the obvious.

The moral is that people are often too hidebound (迂腐的) by social convention o state their views. How many companies have ploughed ahead with expensive projects that were favoured by the chief executive, even when other managers have had doubts? In his new book Rebel ldeas: The Power of Diverse Thinking, Matthew Syed argues that the key to dealing with this problem is “cognitive diversity”, in other words, assembling a team of people with different perspectives and intellectual backgrounds. It is not just about selecting people for teams from both sexes and various ethnicities. Hire only Cambridge politics graduates or Harvard MBAS or Stanford software engineers and they will have studied under the same professors and absorbed similar world views regardless of their gender or skin colour.

There is another element to selecting a good team: ensuring that those viewpoints are heard and respected. That may not happen if those in charge are overbearing(专横的). A study of over 300 projects by the Rotterdam School of Management found that those led by junior managers were more likely to succeed than those led by senior managers maybe because other team members were less scared about pointing out potential dangers to someone lower down the pecking order(权势等级).

The ability to speak up within an organization, without fear of punishment, is known as “psychological safety”. Mr. Syed cites a study of teams at Google, which found that self-reported psychological safety was by far the most important factor behind successful teamwork at the technology giant.

One way to overcome shyness while brainstorming, for instance, is for everyone to write down their ideas but ensure their names are never known. That way opinions about thoughts are less closely tied to the seniority of the thinker and can be tested against each other with less fear or favour.

Increasing the number and range of ideas on offer may be the secret of success. As Mr. Syed writes, the willingness to share knowledge pays off in a world of complexity. Another advantage of diversity is that outsiders can spot profitable opportunities that insiders may miss. Immigrants account for 13% of the American population but 27. 5%of those who start a new business. By their nature, migrants have more get up and go than the average person otherwise they wouldn't move Some may start businesses because existing ones won't hire foreigners, but Mr. Syed is probably right that experiencing more than one culture is a competitive advantage.

The professor

“A teacher affects eternity(永恒); he can never tell where his influence stops.”

----Henry Adams

He was eight years old. A telegram came from the hospital, and since his father, a Russian immigrant, could not read English, Morrie had to break the news, reading his mother’s death notice like a student read in front of the class. “We regret to inform you...” he began.

On the morning of the funeral, Morrie's relatives came down the steps of his tenement building on the poor Lower East Side of Manhattan.

At the cemetery, Morrie watched as they shoveled dirt into his mother’s grave. He tried to recall the tender moments they had shared when she was alive. She had operated a candy store until she got sick, after which she mostly slept or sat by the window, looking frail and weak. Sometimes she would yell out for her son to get her some medicine, and young Morrie, playing stickball in the street, would pretend he did not hear her. In his mind he believed he could make the illness go away by ignoring it.

How else can a child deal with death?

Morrie's father, whom everyone called Charlie, had come to America to escape the Russian Army. He worked in the fur business, but constantly out of a job. Uneducated and barely able to speak English, he was terribly poor, and the family was on the public assistance much of the time. Sometimes, to make money, Morrie and his younger brother, David, would wash porch steps together for a nickel(镍币).

One morning, David couldn't move. He had polio(小儿麻痹症). For a long time as his brother was taken back and forth to a special medical home and was forced to wear braces on his legs, which left him limping Morrie felt responsible.

So in the mornings, he went to synagogue(犹太教会堂) and he stood among the swaying men in their long black coats and he asked God to take care of his dead mother and his sick brother.

And in the afternoons, he stood at the bottom of the subway steps and sold magazines, turning whatever money he made over to his family to buy food.

In the evenings, he watched his father eat in silence, hoping for-but never getting a show of affection, communication, warmth.

At nine years old, he felt as if the weight of a mountain were on his shoulders.

But a saving embrace came into Morrie, s life the following year: his new stepmother, Eva. She was a short Romanian immigrant with plain features, curly brown hair, and the energy of two women. She had a glow () that warmed the otherwise murky atmosphere his father created. She talked when her new husband was silent, she sang songs to the children at night. Morrie took comfort in her smoothing voice, her school lessons, her strong character. When his brother returned from the medical home, still wearing braces from the polio, the two of them shared a rollaway bed in the kitchen of their apartment, and Eva would kiss them good night. Morrie waited on those kisses like a puppy waits on milk, and he felt, deep down, that he had a mother again.

There was no escaping their poverty, however. Because of the Depression, Morrie’s father found even less work in the fur business.

Still, despite their circumstances, Morrie was taught to love and to care. And to learn. Eva would accept nothing less than excellence in school, because she saw education as the only antidote to their poverty. She herself went to night school to improve her English. Morrie's love for education was hatched in her arms.

He studied at night, by the lamp at the kitchen table. And in the mornings he would go to synagogue to say Kaddish-the memorial prayer for the dead for his mother. He did this to keep her memory alive.

“What will you do? Eva would ask him.

“I don' t know,” he would say. He ruled out law, because he didn't like lawyers, and he ruled out medicine, because he couldn't take the sight of blood.

“What will you do?”

It was only through default that the best professor I ever had became a teacher.

1.Why didn't Morrie respond to Mother's yelling for medicine?

A.He didn't know how to help his mother.

B.He was too focused on playing stickball.

C.He was lost in tender moments they shared in the past.

2.After Eva joined in the family, Morrie____________.

A.began to enjoy a materially rich life.

D.was forced to pursue academic achievements.

A.alterative. B.credit.

C.exception. D.solution.

4.What gives Morrie the initial affection for education?

A.His stepmother’s influence. B.His desire for knowledge.

C.His experience at school. D.His memory of Mother.

5.Which of the following can best describe Morrie?

A.Innocent and adventurous. B.Energetic and ambitious.

C.Responsible and diligent. D.Optimistic and religious.

6.What can we learn from the story?

A.Every cloud has a silver lining. B.No man is wise at all times.

C.Time and tide wait for no man. D.Well begun is half done

    London, New York, Tokyo and Paris these famous cities have a commanding influence on the world economy and are home to millions of people, as well as internationally famous arts, culture and educational institutions. But they are hardly representative of the rest of the world’s cities. While 54% of the global population live in cities, around half of those live in cities that have 500,000 inhabitants or fewer.

These “ordinary” cities can be overlooked by politicians, investors, researchers and big businesses. But they are dynamic places with many layers of social, cultural and economic significance. After experiencing a period of post-industrial decline, many such cities are considering urban regeneration (再生) programmes.

But that doesn't mean they have to follow the same path as other urban areas. In fact, the research into urban development has found that ordinary cities can avoid some of the ill effects of regeneration, by embracing what makes them unique.

At the turn of the century, city leaders became increasingly interested in the idea of the “creative city,” The idea was to encourage a “creative class” of talented workers to make their homes and businesses in cities, by creating urban spaces that are open, inclusive and diverse, as well as attractive and technologically advanced.

“Regeneration” became a buzzword associated with these types of strategies, which seek to repurpose seemingly disused or rundown spaces to support an economy led by creative and technological industries. The apparent success of creative city policies was seen in post-industrial centres such as Detroit, US, following investments in cultural, artistic and musical urban renewal.

Such policies swiftly became the go-to strategy for seemingly “ordinary” post-industrial cities around the world, even resulting in new rankings that pit cities against each other, based on criteria including entrepreneurship (创业精神), urban leadership and “liveability”. Having plenty of former industrial spaces that can be adapted for new uses, and a desire to be noticed on the national or global stage, encourages investment in urban regeneration from both public and private sources.

Yet regeneration programmes inspired by the creative city agenda can cause problems. Property developers (地产开发商) and foreign investors have recognized the economic potential of real estate(房地产) in “creative” cities. This has led to rocketing land costs, and many low-income residents have felt the effects of being displaced from their homes.

Yet as more cities seek to emphasize their cultural assets(资产), city leaders and policy makers must be aware of the negative impacts that can arise if local residents are not central to the decision-making process. This emphasizes the need to consider local contexts and communities before operating copycat creative policies.

1.Some famous cities can’t represent the rest of the world's cities in that____________.

A.they are always ignored by politicians, researchers and businessmen

B.they accommodate millions of people but don't contribute to the world economy.

C.about a quarter of global population live in middle-sized and small cities.

D.not all famous arts, culture and educational organizations are distributed there.

2.What measure was probably taken by cities like Detroit to promote city development?

A.Using culture and art as a driving force.

B.Forcing low-income residents to move.

C.Following the same path as some big cities.

D.Encouraging industrial investment continuously.

3.What does the author want to stress in the passage?

A.Cities should copy regeneration programmes.

B.Cities should compete with each other based on some criteria.

C.Cities should seek financial support from sources around the world.

D.Cities should consider regional factors before using creative policies.

4.What does the passage mainly talk about?

A.Ordinary cities successfully avoid ill-effects of development.

B.Ordinary cities don' t have to copy trends to regenerate.

C.Ordinary cities are trying to recover from post-industrial decline.

D.Ordinary cities are dynamic places with social importance.

    Mother Nature has it figured out. She’s designed a master scheme that connects plants and animals, all working in concert to keep every living thing in balance.

This is especially obvious in places like central Africa and in South American tropical rainforests where certain animals help keep trees safe and healthy, which is critical as trees absorb vast amounts of planet-warming carbon pollution.

Recent research warns that losing the creatures that nurture trees puts forests in danger. This, by extension, is helping to accelerate dangerous climate change.

In central Africa for example, elephants eat fast-growing trees, making room for those that grow more slowly. The slow-growing trees with their very dense wood store more carbon than the thinner, faster-developing ones Without elephants, more carbon would accumulate in the atmosphere, worsening climate change according to a new study that used computer models to project what could happen if elephant populations continue to decrease or become extinct.

Africa may once have contained 10 million elephants from the Mediterranean to the Cape, in every habitat except extreme desert. In 1970, there may have been a million left. By the end of the 1980s, there were half that number, mostly killed for the ivory trade, "said Stephen Blake, assistant professor of biology at St. Louis University.

By killing elephants, poachers (偷猎者) rob slow growing trees of their guardian. They also slow the growth of new trees. Elephants blaze(开辟) trails and disperse(散播) seeds as they look for food. “Elephants are basically the gardeners of the forest,” Blake said. They disperse over 100 species of seeds, and disperse more of them over longer distances than other dispersers.”

Blake, who has spent nearly 20 years in Africa working in elephant research and conservation, mourns their fate, describing them as “a complex society of intelligent, caring, emotional animals who respect their grandmothers and mourn their dead” and condemns those who neglect their duty to save them.

“We will go to Mars-there is no doubt-humans are too smart not to,” he said. “Yet we do not have the wisdom to protect elephants and their forest environment that do so much for our physical, spiritual, and emotional well-being.

1.Elephants help keep slow-growing trees safe and healthy by________.

A.providing living space for them.

B.dispersing seeds when searching for food.

C.decreasing in number and reducing carbon accumulation.

D.protecting them in the forest from being cut down.

2.What can we infer from the last paragraph?

A.The world is changing at a faster speed than before.

B.People are intelligent enough to protect the environment.

C.What we have done to protect elephants is far from satisfactory.

D.Animals are so smart that they care much about the well-being of humans.

3.Which of the following is the best title of the passage?

A.Elephants are in danger of dying out in the near future.

B.Elephants are fighting climate change in ways humans can’t.

C.Animals are assumed to be the gardeners of the forest.

D.Animals are accelerating dangerous climate change.
