We must pay ______ to _______ to the teacher carefully in class.
Mr. Guo is a teacher from Xi’an. He asked his students to hand in their homework through a QR Code (二维码). “We spent an hour or two in class leaning how to generate(使产生) the codes, and in the end everything gets easier,” said Guo. “When students finish the homework, they keep it on WeChat. Then, each student makes his own QR code and gives it to me. So I can check their work everywhere using my computer or telephone.”
The QR codes can be sent to Mr. Guo by email, QQ and WeChat. When Guo scans (扫描) his students’ QR codes, their homework appears on his phone. He finds that their homework becomes more creative, with many pictures, music and even videos.
Guo’s students like the new way and think it is interesting. “We are living in the information age. Many students like to work with computers, which makes leaning more fun.” said Tingting, a student of Guo’s.
“The paper is not easy to keep, but the code is easy to keep and share.” Guo said. “It is worth trying to use new technology in education. Education itself is a kind of creation. I don’t want my students to fall behind the times.”
However, some parents are worried. They are afraid that their children will spend too much time on computers and less time communicating with teachers. But in fact, it’s unnecessary. Students still need to look up information in books and write it down when they do their homework. They only use the code when they hand in their work, which doesn’t take them too much time. Also for teachers, it allows them to check the students’ work at any time. And it’s also an easy way to share homework with other students.

Jiaguwen, over 3,000 years old, is the earliest writing form of Chinese characters. Recently, it comes alive on the Chinese Internet and becomes popular as a new online language among the young people, thanks to a person who made them closer to people’s life.
Chen Nan, who creates Jiaguwen memes(表情包), is happy to know that Chinese netizens like his works. As a graduate of the Academy of Arts and Design of Tsinghua University, Chen has been studying Chinese characters’ design (设计) for 19 years. In 2016, the ancient typeface was included into the font library (字体库) under his efforts to let the ancient words walk into people’s life. Now the library has 3,500 characters, but Chen’s research on the project still continues, as he plans to increase characters to 7,000. In the future, he will put the ancient characters into education and the development of games and apps.
He has been working to make Jiaguwen into emojis (表情符号). For example, the character for “zui” which means “drunk” in English, was created to look like a stumbling(蹒跚的) figure. Such vivid figures have been well accepted by WeChat users. Chen has also combined (结合) the ancient Chinese characters with cartoon figures. A cartoon video about Jiaguwen he designed was watched 31 million times and shared 140,000 times.
“The ancient characters are not as cool and far away from us as most people think. In fact, they are cute and funny, and they can totally serve people's needs for online expression, "said Chen Nan.
“At present, most people think Jiaguwen is hard to understand and don’t realize the great historic value(历史价值) of it. Through using Jiaguwen memes, I truly hope that more people can develop an interest in the ancient characters and use them in their daily lives.” Chen said.
“I never imagined that I could use Jiaguwen to communicate with my friends. I thought I could only see them in my textbooks and only a few researchers could understand them. Also, these memes look so creative and cute.” said a Sina Weibo user.

It happened to me recently that I was telling someone how much I enjoyed reading Barack Obama’s Dreams from My Father and how it had changed my views of the former US president. The person I was talking to agreed with me that it was a wonderfully written book. However, he then went on to talk about Mr. Obama, which showed that he had no idea of his background at all. I realized that I was talking to a book liar.
______ Nearly two thirds of people have lied about reading a book which they haven’t read. In the World Book Day survey, Dreams from My Father is at number 9. The survey lists top ten books, and different writers, which people have lied about. As I don’t lie very often, I’ll admit (承认) that I haven’t read all the ten books. But I am pleased to say that I have read the book at number one, George Orwell’s 1984. I think it’s absolutely outstanding.
When people were asked why they lied, the most common reason was to impress someone they were speaking to. This could be difficult if the conversation went deeper!
The World Book Day survey also has some other interesting information in it. It shows that many people lie about having read classical works by Jane Austen, the Bronte sisters, Charles Dickens and so on. But when asked which writers they really enjoy, they named J.K. Rowling, Jilly Cooper, and Stephen King (ah, the big sellers). Forty-one percent of people asked said they turned to the back of the book to read the end before finishing the story.
So which books have you lied about reading-if any-and which is your favorite?
1.Which of the following can be the missing part in Paragraph 2?
A.Do you know what a book liar is?
B.And it seems that that person is not the only one.
C.Dreams from My Father is really popular in the world.
D.I’m a book liar, too.
2.What does the World Book Day survey show?
A.Over 40% of people didn’t really read a whole book by famous writers.
B.People don’t like Dreams from My Father and 1984.
C.Few people lie about having read classical works by Jane Austen.
D.Many people like Charles Dickens better than J. K. Rowling.
3.If we put the passage into three parts, which of the following is the best?
(①=Para.(自然段)1 ②Para.2 ③=Para.3 ④=Para.4 ⑤=Para.5)
A.①; ②; ③④⑤ B.①②; ③; ④⑤
C.①②; ③④; ⑤ D.①; ②③④; ⑤
4.The best title of the passage may be “_______”.
