Since 2017, short videos have got millions of views online in China.1.短视频已成为中国现在最受欢迎的交流方式之一。Many people create and share short videos on popular video apps (应用程序) like Douyin. You can even add music and special effects to your videos. 2. The videos usually last l5 seconds to a few minutes. They show people doing activities like cooking, exercising and singing.
3. Teenagers especially enjoy these videos. Because the videos let teenagers see funny and exciting things they don’t usually see. Many teens like to share the fun things they do with others as well. For example, a famous blogger named Li Ziqi has posted videos showing traditional Chinese culture. This has won her many fans.
However, the videos can also cause trouble.4. —些学生花太多的时间看他们。They don’t have enough time to study. To deal with this problem, Douyin added a new function (功能) in April, 2018.5. It locks the app if someone uses the app for over two hours a day. In this way, the apps have been controlled much more strictly since then.

24、Once upon a time, there was a lovely garden. There was a tall tree with many leaves and some vegetables in the garden. Both the vegetables and the tree made the garden beautiful. The garden’s owner was very proud of this. But the tree and the vegetables didn’t like each other. The vegetables hated the tree’s shadow. The tree thought the vegetables drank all the water.
One day, the vegetables decided to use up all the water in the ground so that the tree would dry up. Then the tree answered back by refusing to shade the vegetables from the hot sun. Soon, the vegetables and the tree were all drying up.
The gardener then stopped watering them. When he did that, both the tree and vegetables really learned what thirst was. There seemed to be no solution, but one of the vegetables, a small courgette (小胡瓜), understood what was going on and decided to solve the problem. In spite of little water and the hot sunshine, the little courgette did all he could to grow up.
He grew so big that the gardener’s son found it one morning. And the gardener started watering them again. Then the vegetables and the tree realized that it was better to help each other than to fight. They worked together to make the garden beautiful again.

25、Can you write the Chinese characters “ganga” (embarrassment) correctly? Do you know how to write characters like “gala” (the corner of walls)? If you can’t, you are not alone. “Now most people are typing into computers instead of writing on paper. We type Chinese characters mainly according to their pronunciation. The result is to recognize characters without remembering how to write them. China Youth Daily did a survey of 2,517 people, in which 90 percent said they had once forgotten how to write a common Chinese character.
Compared to adults, teenagers are better at writing Chinese characters because they spend more time learning and practicing at school. However, the influence of digital (数字的) technology cannot be left out, according to He Yu, head of a research team for Chinese teaching.
“Many students are obsessed with digital tools such as mobile phones and computers, they spent too much time on these tools. As a result, too much use of the tools will make students too lazy to think and write.” he said. Such worries have brought about a popular TV show titled Chinese Spelling Hero, which pays attention to Chinese character writing among teenagers.
In April, the Ministry of Education called for better calligraphy (书法) education in schools. Organizations like the China Calligraphy Association are also working to train more teachers in calligraphy. Interestingly, calligraphy teachers can’t always avoid the influence of modern technology. Shen Bin is a calligraphy teacher at a primary school in Beijing. She said that it’s common for teachers like her to forget certain words. “The calligraphy class is also a good chance for me to remember how to write.” she said.
