University kitchens serve many kinds of food. Some students choose unhealthy food, because now their parents are not nearby to help them choose.

What do people do with their old, out-of-date but still useful computers? Most people don’t know what to do with them. Many old computers are put away in homes. Many more are simply thrown out with the rubbish.
Finally, some companies are thinking of ways to bring down the number of old computers. Sony has agreed to help recycle old Sony products (产品). Dell, Hewlett-Packard and other companies now also take back some old computers. In some countries, laws are being passed, too. Computer companies will have to pay for collecting and recycling their used products. And 70% of computer waste must be recycled. The idea behind the laws is that computer companies themselves should pay the cost. That will encourage them to make computers that are easier and cheaper to repair and upgrade (升级).
Yet while many people are throwing away good computers, others can’t afford them at all. Hundreds of organizations (组织) are working to solve this problem. They collect and repair old computers. Some also teach others how to pair computers. The computers then go to schools, charities (慈养机构) and people who need them. Giving a used computer to one of these organizations can turn one person’s rubbish into someone else useful things and cut down in waste, too.

DNA is the whole “map” of the human body. It is something that all humans have, and it tells the body what to do. DNA is the reason that we look like our parents, because we get some of their DNA to make our own.
People have been trying to understand the human body for a long time. In 1860, Mr Mendel discovered why we look the same as other people in our family. It is because of small things called “genes” (基因) in our body. In 1953, two scientists, Watson and Crick, found out that those small parts are really messages. They’re written in the DNA with a special language.
In 1961, another two scientists found the first “word” that they could understand in that language. It shows how DNA tells the cell (细胞) to build its parts. So far, scientists have found all the words in the DNA map, but we still do not understand what they all do. By understanding what just one “word” means, we can help to save people from several illnesses. So the more we understand, the more doctors will be able to do.
Most people hope that this will help to make better medicine and help sick people. Other people worry that when we learn more “words” and find out more information, we will use it in the wrong way, just to make people more attractive (有吸引力的), or stop sick people getting jobs.

What makes Chinese sci-fi (科幻) stand outPeople from other countries talk about what they think of Chinese sci-fi Q:Have you read or watched any Chinese sci-fi works, such as The Wandering Earth or The Three-Body Problem? What do you think of Chinese sci-fi? (Wang Hexuan, 13, Sichuan) A: I must say that not many Asian sci-fi works are promoted (宣传) in the US. But some US people know the Chinese writer Liu Cixin. I read the English translation of The Three-Body Problem as a high school student. At the time, in my physics class, we were learning about nuclear physics (核物理), and I really loved the idea in the book that the aliens unfold (展开) a 试卷第7页,共12页
B.It can be only good. D.It can be good and bad. proton (质子) and put machine parts into it. My physics told me that while now, technology doesn’t allow you to do this, we have created quantum (量子) computers that work similarly. A lot of Western sci-fi stories today focus on robots and artificial intelligence instead of aliens. But Liu’s books are really fun to read. (Natasha Ellis, 18, US) I watched the movie The Wandering Earth years ago, and it was a great work of sci-fi. But the recent The Wandering Earth Ⅱ was even better. The story is so touching and it covers many aspects (方面). For example, it shows how Chinese parents are caring for their kids. It shows that when it’s time to serve the nation (国家) or in a bigger picture save Earth, Chinese people don’t hesitate (犹豫). But the most beautiful thing in this movie is the efforts made by people together from different countries. This is not like US sci-fi or superhero movies where one person saves the world. The Chinese sci-fi shows how we can work together to overcome our biggest challenges. I love this idea. (Uzair Faiz, 30, Pakistan) 46.What is The Three-Body Problem?
A.It’s a book.
B.It’s a play.
C.It’s a sport
D.It’s a shop.

Running late? Then it’s time to speed up and climb some stairs (台阶). Shopping 57 mum and dad? Carry the bags! These small everyday things can be great 58 when we do them quickly, reported National Geographic.
Several 59 have shown that short, intense (高强度的) exercises can be good for our health. One study at The University of Sydney, Australia, 60 that just doing three 1-minute sets of intense physical activity every day can lower the risk of death from cancer (癌症) and heart disease by 40 61 . The study tracked (追踪) the health of 25,000” non-exercisers” over seven years.
Of course, you can’t beat getting regular (规律的) exercise four or five 62 a week, said the study’s exercise scientist Emmanuel Stamatakis. But the more everyday exercise you get, “the better”, he said. Another study looked at 63 just four seconds of strong, fast physical activity can help 64 the bad effects of sitting for too long.
In the study, young adults pedaled (脚蹬) an exercise bike as 65 as they could five times every hour for four seconds over eight hours. The study found that the very speedy four seconds were as good as doing 30 minutes of exercise.

Chinatown is the name given to an area in the middle of London. It is a large Chinese community (社区) with a lot of Chinese restaurants, Chinese supermarkets and shops.
In the 1950s, it was a poor area and everything was very cheap. At the same time, the world rice market changed and thousands of farm workers in Hong Kong lost their jobs. They began arriving in London to look for work. They found jobs in the restaurants in this area.
These restaurant workers often worked 17 hours a day and had no time to learn English. As more Chinese arrived, more shops and businesses grew. Wives came and joined their husbands and children came and joined their fathers. The community grew, and Chinatown was born.
In the 1970s and 1980s, British-born Chinese started to have a better education and this brought economic (经济的) success to the area. Many families moved out of Chinatown, and there was more space for businesses. Chinatown soon became a popular place for tourists.
Now everyone knows about London’s Chinatown. During the Chinese New Year, the
