According to the Natural Resources Defense Council, an international nonprofit (非盈利的) environmental organization, Shenzhen tops all Chinese cities in walking environment. It’s reported that Shenzhen has built a number of parks and greenways in recent years. Now there are about 2,500 kilometres of greenways available for people to enjoy healthy activities.
In order to make greenways that satisfy people, the Shenzhen Greenway Office has set up rest areas, environmental-friendly toilets, signs and so on. At a rest area on the Shatou greenway in Futian District, things like medical kits and drinking water are available for people. “We can stay here to keep out of the rain and have water to drink, which is good,” said a cleaner who often goes there and drinks some of the water. At another rest area on the round-city greenway in Longhua District, people can see many volunteers providing help for others. More places such as nursery rooms (育婴室) and book bars have also been set up there.
A map, called the Shenzhen greenway coverage map, shows the general layout (布局) of the city’s greenways. And each district has one greenway map with information introducing the history and tourist places along the greenway. A woman living in Futian District says that she takes a walk on a greenway every weekend and the greenway map helps her a lot. “It offers a lot of information, such as how long the greenway is and where the toilets are,” she said.
With more greenways available, an increasing number of people are walking on the greenways as a way to relax and exercise. And it has become a popular lifestyle choice among people living in Shenzhen.

4.In which column (栏目) of a newspaper does this passage probably appear?
A.Travel. B.Lifestyle. C.Fashion. D.Advice.
Plants and animals have some very clever design features (特征). Scientists study these models. Then they can make new products using the ideas from nature.
Copying what we see in nature can improve how we travel. Japan’s first super-fast trains pushed air through tunnels at high speeds. When a train came out of a tunnel, it made a loud noise. Kingfisher birds hardly make a splash (溅水声) when they dive into water. Engineers changed the front of the trains to match the shape of the kingfisher. Then the air passed over the trains. The problem was solved!
People look underwater for ideas, too. Sharks have skin covered in special scales ( 鳞 ). These scales help sharks move quickly through water. Scientists have copied sharks’ skin to make swimsuits. Aircraft engineers also copied the scales. They made a coating for the wings of airplanes that is similar to sharks’ skin. Both the swimmers and the airplanes now travel faster.
Scientists studied how dolphins communicate to solve a big problem. Some earthquakes happening on the sea floor can cause tsunamis (海啸). People need to be warned if a tsunami is coming. Scientists use special tools to gather information on the sea floor. Then the information is sent to the surface as sounds. But on the way, the sounds can get muddled, so the scientists may not hear them.
Scientists studied the way dolphins “talk”. Dolphins have a clever way to send messages through water. Their system is better than some of our systems. Now, experts have copied the way dolphins send messages. This will help them track tsunami waves. Nature’s designs are built to last. When we observe the natural world, we can find wonderful ways to improve our lives. What ideas from nature will people borrow next?
The possibilities are endless!
1.What did engineers copy from the kingfisher bird?
A.Its high speeds. B.Its special looks.
C.Its sound when it’s flying. D.Its ability to travel in water.
2.What can we learn from Paragraph 3?
A.Swimmers can swim as fast as sharks now.
B.Engineers have copied ideas from swimsuits.
C.People have copied ideas from sharks.
D.Shark scales are used to make wings of planes.
3.What does the underlined word “muddled” in Paragraph 4 probably mean?
A.Not clear. B.Very loud.
C.Really strange. D.Quite terrible.
4.What is the purpose of the system inspired by dolphins?
A.To look for dolphins. B.To help people ride waves.
C.To keep tsunamis away. D.To give early warnings.
(From Shenzhen Special Zone Daily, Feb. 13) Some white robots were seen delivering(传送) food at a park in Nanshan District. These robots are used because the park director doesn’t want too many people to wait for lunch so as to avoid the people- to-people transmission(传播) of COVID-19. These robots were developed by Candela (Shenzhen) Technology Innovation Co. Ltd.
A group of small robots (called Candles) deliver food inside office buildings while another group (called Sunnys) transport the meals between buildings outdoors.
Candle robots can work with gate machines and elevators and will not get in people’s way. The robot makes a phone call or texts a message to orderers after arriving at their floor. Thirty Candles have been put into use. They can provide 500 to 1,000 meals each day with at least 60 meals at a time. The robots will be disinfected(消毒) six times a day.
Sunnys work outdoors and are able to avoid running into walkers, bikes and other things. After arriving at the place, a Sunny will give food boxes to a Candle for indoor delivery.
The company also developed a group of medical robots after the outbreak to support hospitals in Wuhan, Beijing and Shenzhen. “Unmanned delivery is very necessary now. We hope these robots, and the technology, can bring comfort to people,” said He Zhiwei, general manager of Candela.
