On Feb. 3, 2014, a girl from Massachusetts, the US, said that circuses(马戏团)should no more use hooks(钩子)or chains on elephants. And the government should do something
【2】 They can’t walk freely. And chains bring them great pain. Some people even use hooks when they train elephants. The hooks are sharp and bring elephants much more pain. Circus actors even push a hook into an elephant's body to move it along during a show. “After some time, the elephant's skin breaks down. It feels the pain, but it can’t say anything. It can' t say no to those cruel people." Sophie told local newspaper Marblehead Reporter. She also said that it would be bad for children.
【3】 Back in 2011, as a sixth-grader, she searched for different animal protection groups online and helped them.
So when she spoke in front of 70 people at the state house, Sophie was not afraid. She was full of courage.
“Elephants aren’t treated with kindness. 【4】 I speak for them with my voice, and my love." she said.

The Huawei Mate Xs seems like the first truly model of foldable(可折叠的)phones. It's a huge-screened smart phone that fold with the screen on the outside. Unlike the competition, this is a killer phone. ①
This phone catches a lot of attention-unfold it and people will be amazed. ____② We've been stopped in the street, interrupted on a train and watched by a waiter while using it.
With a battery in each half, the Mate Xs has 4500mAh of power and charges very quickly-over 80% in 30 minutes. Open the Mate Xs out and you can multitask (多任务) across three different apps on the screen at once. With the help of a sidebar, you can drag one to the right and one to the left.
③ First, the screen. It's plastic, as on most foldable phones, so more fragile(易碎的)than glass ones. Next, the software. As it was not allowed to use Google, many apps you use in your daily life may just don't work properly on the Mate Xs. ④ There's a lot to weigh up here, especially that price-£2299, but there's no doubt the tech in this thing is great and surprising.
【1】Which is TRUE about Mate Xs according to the passage?
A.Mate Xs has only a battery of 4500 mAh of power.

A recently study found people’s lives are made shorter in North China. It is showed the life expectancy(平均寿命) had been cut down by 5.5 years there. Researchers think that the heavy air pollution in China should be to blame. It’s really the truth. Our government has already done something. However, it doesn’t seem to work so well.
“Air pollution in China is doing harm to people’s health. The harm is much more serious than we can imagine,” said Chen Yuyu of Beijing University, one of researchers of this study.
Dirty air brings serious problems in North China. In January this year, the air pollution was worse than that in other places. That was caused by rising temperature and waste gas from coal heating.
Chinese government should strongly fight against air pollution. They should think of more proper ways to deal with the problem. People should be encouraged to take buses, ride bicycles or walk, instead of driving cars. The factories that pollute heavily should be closed.
“We need to improve our environment, although it might be expensive. Protecting our environment means protecting ourselves,” Li Hongbin, another researcher of the study said.

【2】The study showed the life expectancy had been cut down by 5.5 years in North China.
【3】Air pollution is very harmful to people.
【4】People shouldn’t be encouraged to take more transportation .
【5】People need to make pollution less, although it might cost a lot.

I wish you enough rain to appreciate (欣赏) the sun more. I wish you enough happiness to keep your spirit alive. I wish you enough pain so that the smallest joys in life appear much bigger ...
