23、   【1】   Then we usually go to see a doctor. Doctors know a lot about what makes us ill. They may give us something to take. The medicine often makes us well again.

But sometimes the doctor’s medicine doesn’t work. A sick person does not get well.

【2】   This happened to one man. He was in hospital, but he wasn’t well. Then he found a new “doctor” inside himself. This “doctor” was his own sense of humor. He saw funny films. He read funny books. And something wonderful happened.  【3】    Then he was able to sleep and rest. His own happy feeling helped him to feel well again. And he told his story in a book. He said that laughing was his best “medicine”. His doctor thought so, too.

Another man was ill, and he had a terrible pain in his back.  【4】  So the man began to “picture” his pain. In his head he “drew” a picture of a dog. He imagined it as a real dog. And it was biting（咬） his back. It was hurting him. Then the man talked softly to the dog. He put his hand on the dog’s head. He made friends with the dog. And his pain went away.

【5】   But more and more people are getting well in this way. So call on the “doctor” inside your own head. And stay happy and well.

24、When your pen is broken, the battery in your toy runs out, or you have some leftover food. What do you do with these things? You will probably throw them into one bin.

But actually, all of these pieces of trash need to be sorted (分类) separately.

Garbage sorting is a big issue worldwide. In recent years, some Chinese cities have been working hard on it.

Shanghai has worked with Alipay to create a “green account (账户)” service for its residents. Account holders get points by correctly sorting their garbage. Through the Alipay app, they can exchange the points for milk, phone cards and other products. The city is asking all of its residents to sort their garbage into four groups: wet, recyclable, harmful and dry.

Wet waste is also known as household waste. “They are things you don’t want, but that pigs can eat,” Guangzhou Daily explained.

Paper, metal (金属), glass and other things that can be reused are recyclable waste.

Harmful waste includes things like medicine, batteries and fluorescent bulbs (荧光灯泡).

Finally, any waste that’s not wet, recyclable or harmful will go in the “dry waste” bin.

Many other Chinese cities are also using this method to sort their garbage. For example, Shenzhen has been sorting its garbage into the same four groups since 2012. Students there also receive waste-sorting guidebooks that they must study.

China is improving its waste-sorting efforts. There is still a long way to go. But it’s never too late to learn how to sort your trash properly and protect the environment.

If you don’t sort your garbage, all of it will go to a landfill (垃圾填理场) and be buried together. These landfills can take up large areas of ground that could have been used for planting trees or crops. The electronic waste you throw away, such as batteries, can pollute the soil and groundwater (地下水). Other pieces of garbage, like the metal part of a pen, can be used to make other things if they are properly recycled.

【1】How is Shanghai encouraging people to sort their garbage?

A．Creating a “green account” service with the help of Alipay

B．Paying people to sort their trash correctly

C．Allowing people to exchange garbage with each other

D．Providing its residents with guidebooks to help them

【2】Which of the following would be classified as wet waste?

A．Batteries

B．Glasses

C．Leftover food

D．Medicine

【3】What do we know about garbage sorting in China?

A．It started its garbage sorting system in 2012.

B．Students have to take waste-sorting classes in school.

C．There is still a lot of work to be done in this area.

D．Burying garbage is a common method of getting rid of garbage.

【4】What is the main idea of the last paragraph?

A．Where we can bury our waste.

B．Why we should sort our garbage properly.

C．What kinds of waste can pollute the environment.

D．How some kinds of waste can be reused and recycled.

25、

With a habit of drinking coffee on weekends while doing schoolwork, Wu Zibo, a 17-year-old student from Beijing No.1 High School, wanted to order a cup of Moutai-flavored latte (茅台味拿铁). “I wonder how my father’s favorite Chinese strong drink would taste with my favorite coffee,” Wu told China Daily (中国日报).

In 2023, China’s team-up market will grow to over 100 billion yuan and may reach 300 billion yuan by 2025, according to China Quality Daily.
