China says only selected spectators will be allowed to attend events, and Olympic athletes, officials, staff and journalists are required to stay within a bubble that keeps them from contact with the general public.4 Beijing, with its 20 million residents, has experienced only a handful of COVID-19 cases and reported just two new ones on Wednesday, in keeping with China's "zero tolerance approach to the pandemic, strict rules require lock-downs and mass testing when any real or suspected case 5 (discover).The truncated program seemed to have little effect on Luo, who after receiving the torch from Vice Premier Han Zheng said it was the realization of decades-long aspiration."Ive never participated in the Winter Olympics, so I had hoped our country 6 host the Winter Olympics and I had the dream for nearly 60 years,“ said Luo, wearing a red and white jacket 7 (mark) with No. 1. “Today my dream has come true .

Summary WritingDirections: Read the following three passages. Summarize the main idea and the main point(s) of the passage in no more than 60 words. Use your own words as far as possible.More than any other aspect of the climate crisis, it is the over-production of carbon dioxide that has been valued. But nitrogen and its abundant use in commercial fertilizer, also leads to air pollution and climate change. Evidence suggests their use also contributes to air pollution, increases the rates of cancer and reduces biodiversity, as well as releasing gas (laughing gas).But nitrogen helps feed around half the world's population and remains essential for the foreseeable future. With prices of fertilizer rising, many developing countries don't have access to it, with resulting threats to food security. The global nitrogen challenge involves both reducing fertilizer use, and getting it to where ifs needed most.A team of scientists has come up with a five-step plan to solve this two-sided problem. Benjamin Houlton, the leader, explains that only by undertaking a holistic approach and combining solutions can the problem be solved on both levels.The five steps identified involve changing agricultural practices getting fertilizer to the places it's needed,reducing nitrogen pollution and finally, both reducing food waste and promoting a change in diet. The latter two are essential because approximately one-quarter of all global food produced is wasted along the supply chain, which means that a large portion of the nitrogen fertilizer applied to crops is ultimately wasted.Benjamin admits that adding nitrogen to the list of existing climate woes might cause a sense of exhaustion. Nevertheless, he has an encouraging message. "The truth is, nitrogen is a blessing and a curse J he says, "But if you can reduce the spill-overs of nitrogen, you can quickly get systems to return to a more original state. That makes it very different from CO2. We lock in 30 to 50 years of climate impacts every time we send out a molecule of CO? into the air. But with nitrogen you can get immediate returns on investment.”TranslationDirections: Translate the following sentences into English, using the words given in the brackets.52 .你能帮我转发这条消息到班级群吗?非常急!

But increasingly, the two have merged into a single experience, allowing 11 to get fries and a beer while they watch the latest superhero blockbuster. Full-service theatres have become a Friday-night pastime as American as, well, going to the movies.Dine-in cinemas are not altogether new. In the late 1980s, brothers Mike and Brian McMenamin opened one in Portland, Ore. A decade later, inspired by the McMenamins, Tim and Karrie League began 12 trendy beer with hits like The Craft at the Alamo Draft-house in Austin. But in recent years, the trend has expanded from niche to 13 .There are now 29 Alamo locations nationwide, from Omaha to El Paso.Full-service theaters appeal to a broader, more regionally 14 customer base. At Movie Tavern, for instance, you can order popcorn shrimp and a “Jumbo Jar“ margarita while watching the film. AMC, the biggest U. S. movie-theater company, launched Dine-in, where meals can be ordered with the 15 of a button. iPic Theaters offer something similar to a first-class flying experience: Leather reclining chairs and a menu developed by a James Beard Award-winning chef. For the most 16 experience, you will have to fly to Paris, where Europa Corp First Class, serves champagne, caviar (鱼子酱)and Pierre Herme Macarons.The rise in full-service movie-going coincides with declining ticket sales across the industry. North American movie 17 in 2017 plunged to what appears to be a 27-year low. Between the glut of uninspired reboots18 theaters, young audiences choosing to consume content on their smartphones and the dramatic rise in the popularity of streaming, it is no wonder that theater owners are seeking creative ways to lure customers years, AMC Dine-in achieved 4% growth in just two.Full-service theaters are not without their doubters. Despite server's attempts at stealth (动作轻柔),many find them 19 when serving food. Some prefer to eat post-movie for a chance to discuss what they9ve just watched. And as expensive as traditional theater concessions (小食)have become, prices are apt to get steeper once pancetta (意大利腌肉)enters the 20.But for those with the funds, the full-service theater offers reason enough to quit online movies.III.

The internet began its life displaying nothing more exciting than white text on a black background. Flat27 were added in the 1990s. Video came to dominate in the 2010s.

The United States is a vase country whose long highways connect very distant places. Many famous American novels and films are about stories that occur while their characters are travelling along these highways. These novels are often celebrations of American life.Jesmyn Ward's National Book Award winner Sing. Unburied, Sing is a road novel, but not a celebration. The road journey here is through Mississippi, as an African-American mother and her two children travel to collect her white husband - the children's father - as he's released for jaiLNeither the mother, Leonie, nor the father, Michael, are ideal parents. Leonie in particular is so full of anger and regret that she takes out her unhappiness on her children, the 13-year-old Jojo and his little sister Kayla. And the pain of lacking proper financial support makes the journey even harder.The telling of the story is divided between various narrators. Jojo, the boy, is the most sympathetic of them. But it is worrying to read about how he experiences the world. Even though he's young, he's already experienced the dark side of life. The opening sentence of the book gives a sense of Jojo's unnatural maturity: "I like to think I know what death is. I like to think that I could look at it straight." This maturity (成熟)is tested when a white policeman pulls a gun on him when Jojo puts his hand in his pocket.But who, or what, is to blame fbr these sad circumstances? For Ward, it's clearly the past. She admires the work of fellow novelist William Faulkner. When she thinks about the past, she's of the same mind as him.Faulkner famously wrote: "The past is never dead. Ifs not even past." At one point, Ward says that her characters are “pulling the past with them, like a too-heavy trailer coupled to the car, as they journey on through Mississippi to the jailhouse. The biggest part of this past, of course, is racism - the remains of slavery which is always there, and ruining life.This is probably why The Washington Post listed Sing, Unburied, Sing as one of its 10 choices of 2017's Best Books. "The plight of his one family is tired to crimes that stretch over decades,“ wrote the newspaper. "These are people pulling all the weight of history.What can we learn about Sing, Unburied, Sing from the article?A. It was recently adapted as a film.B. Ifs a celebration of American life.C.
