Dear Ms. Jenkins,
I’m Li Hua, a Senior I student from Hefei 168 High School. I would like to offer my apology for unable to teach you to make Chinese knot this Saturday.
The reason is that I have got a cold but the doctor suggests that I lie in the bed for one week or so. But don’t worry, I had asked a friend of mine, Zhang Li, to go here instead. Zhang Li is a girl who is very experienced at making Chinese knots. He will drop in at your apartment at 9: 00 this Saturday morning.
Please allowing me to say sorry again. I have the confidence that you can learn what to make Chinese knots. Wish you a good time!
Yours,
Li Hua

Many cosplay activities are being organized in China, making the subculture popular among some youths. Cosplay means costume play, in which participants wear costumes and fashion accessories(配饰) to represent a specific character. What’s the reason why youths are interested in cosplay? 1. Cosplay participants often interact with each other to dress up as characters from animes(动漫), cartoons, comic books, films, TV programs and video games. Youths who love cosplay have their own sets of jokes, which “outsiders” rarely understand.2.
Cosplayers are almost always young, most of them under 25, and as they grow older, they tend to give up the practice.3. Instead, they should treat such youngsters as normal youths, but at the same time warn them never to cross the social and moral boundaries.
The cosplay subculture is a kind of performing arts. Cosplayers usually get the costumes in these ways. First, through some companies that make and sell packaged suits for cosplay. Second, through some individuals that make costumes and accessories.4.
With capital flowing into the ACG industry, more specific and mature business models help the industry develop further.5. Since then the domestic animation and game industry has been developing healthily with a stronger sense of using legal products. China’s ACG industry is likely to see higher growth in 2019.
A.And besides, by making them themselves.
B.It’s a way for youths to express virtual(虚拟的) love.
C.Perhaps that’s why people are prejudiced against them.
D.Based on a research, 2015 proved to be a turning point.
E.The cosplay industry is expected to witness more success.
F.Therefore, there is no need for parents to overreact to cosplay.
G.So regulators should strictly monitor such events to prevent improper behaviors.
These days I am on my very best behavior whenever I leave the house. If I am wearing pantyhose(连裤袜), I double-check to ensure there is no hole on it. I drive thoughtfully as if I’m being tested for a license. I won’t even allow myself to frown when another driver is blocking my path.
My kids have noticed my fear in public. “Why are you looking all around, Mum?” they asked.
“You can’t be too careful,” I said. “Every single person around us is hiding one of cell phone cameras. They are glad to catch somebody doing something stupid or embarrassing. Then they’ll put it on YouTube and a million people will see. I’m not taking any chances.”
“But I don't think anyone is interested in filming you putting on your lipstick for a YouTube video.” answered one kid.
“Oh, really? Don't count me out so quickly.” I said.
Actually, in some cases, I am all for public shaming. For example, I admire the cleverness of the man who put up a website where he posts photos of cars and license numbers of people who occupy two parking spots. And I take secret pleasure in photos of politicians with their fingers in their noses. Throwing light on bad behavior can awake the sleepy conscience(良知).
But what about the poor guy who has already had a bad day at work and then loses his temper at a rude store clerk? What about the woman whose only crime is a terrible judgment error at the hairdresser? Do they deserve to have their images uploaded onto the Internet for all the world to see?
None of this is new, of course. Allen Funt pioneered the art of catching people during unguarded moments back in the 1940s with “Candid Camera”. But there’s a difference. On “Candid Camera”, people are set up in staged situations, such as riding in an elevator that goes sideways. And they must give permission before they enjoy their fifteen minutes of fame. Now we are a nation of Allen Funts. This can’t be a good thing.

Phone batteries rarely last a full day anymore, so carrying compact chargers(小巧的充电器) is becoming normal. But many of these so-called portable devices are heavy, thick and inconvenient—until Solar Paper is developed.
Chicago engineers have designed a super-thin, lightweight panel (面板) called Solar Paper capable of charging an iPhone in two hours and many panels can be combined to boost its power. It was created by Chicago-based Yolk. After raising more than $1 million online for the production, it is now available to purchase throughout the country. It comes in four versions －2.5W, 5W, 7.5W and 10W－depending on the output needed for various devices. And these different models are created by combining individual 2. 5W panels together.
A 2.5W panel will charge an iPhone 6 or Galaxy S3 in five hours. The 5W version charges the same devices but cuts charging time to two hours or three hours if it’s cloudy. The 7.5W model Solar Paper charges the devices in the same time as the 5W version but produces more energy when it is cloudy. The 10W version is ideal(理想的) for the iPad Air 2, and will charge a device in 2.5 hours. Each individual panel measures 3.5 inches×6-7 inches×0.6inches, weighs 60g and is 1.5mm thick.
Other features include a unique automatic reset(重置) function which stops and starts the Paper charging when cast with a shadow or placed in sunlight. Other solar chargers require you to re-plug the wire at these conditions. It also has a low-energy LCD screen that displays the amount of power the Solar Paper produces in real time.
1.What does the underlined word “boost” in the second paragraph mean?
A. Balance. B. Increase.
C. Possess. D. Reduce.
2.What can we know about the Solar Paper?
A. Yolk started an online activity to fund production of Solar Paper.
B. Customers are able to buy Solar Paper all over the world.
C. The 7.5W version is the best choice if users charge an iPad.
D. The LCD screen shows how much current an iPhone uses.
3.How is Solar Paper different from other solar chargers?
A. It can be carried wherever you go.
B. It can produce more electricity.
C. It can produce power even if it’s rainy.
D. It can get reconnected automatically after a shadow.
4.What is the author’s purpose in writing the text?
A. To explain the strengths of solar chargers.
B. To praise Chicago engineers for their efforts.
C. To introduce a new type of solar charger.
D. To advise producers to make phone batteries last long.
