"Our teas can help protect your teeth and your heart, possibly even help to prevent cancer(癌症), "said Luo Shengkai, 17, one of the four student hosts from Sichuan University High School. They excitedly introduced three self-made health teas through a livestream(直播)on Douyin on March 27, 2023. The livestream got over 60, 000 likes and many online orders, with all income going to the local tea farmers.
"It's the first time we have sold tea online. We not only need to introduce our tea, but we also need to do something with the audience and answer their questions, "said Luo. "We've learned a lot from this. "
Luo is one of a group of students taking part in a two-year course(课程)on tea research. Through research and fieldwork, they learn about tea planting and picking, tea making, package design and marketing. However, making a new and popular tea isn't easy. To create a kind of tea that can protect students' eyesight, Luo and his team members first met with a professional from Traditional Chinese Medicine Center of Chengdu University and researched the characters of the local tea. Then they learned different uses of ingredients such as goji-berries(枸杞), mangosteen(山竹果)and cassia-seed(决明子)and did experiments to find what would happen if they were mixed all together. At last, they made it! They successfully produced a cassia-seed tea and then added other ingredients based on people's feedback(反馈).
"Through the tea course, students learn how to be creative and improve their hands-on skills. They also learn to respect tea workers and how to make a difference to rural vitalization(乡村振兴). That's the meaning of our education, " said Mi Yunlin, the headmaster of the school.
a. They met with a professional.
b. They planted goji-berries and mangosteen.
c. They did experiments.
d. They collected people's feedback.
Last Saturday, I went to a coffee shop to meet a friend of mine. I got there ten minutes earlier.
I ordered a cup of coffee and sat by the window, watching people. There were some boys playing football on the street and a small boy was running after the ball as it rolled across the road.
Suddenly, there came a car. It was going very fast. When the driver saw the boy in his way, he braked hard. But it was too late. The small boy was lying on the street without moving. To everyone's surprise, the car didn't stop. It drove away quickly.
People ran to the boy. There was a cut on the boy's head and he lost a lot of blood. The coffee shop owner telephoned the police. Soon an ambulance(救护车)arrived and took the boy to the hospital. At 6:30 p. m., the police arrived and started questioning people. About half an hour later, they asked me to go to the police station because I saw everything. I gave them all the information I had known because I really wanted them to catch the driver. I didn't leave the police station until 8:00 p. m.. After that I went home because I didn't want to talk to anyone.
The next day, the boy's parents called me to say thanks. They also told me their son was fine and the driver was at the police station now.

This is a story of two friends -one is blind, and the other has no arms. On their own, the two are "disabled". This team has changed their village in North China's Hebei Province into a rich, green forest. Now, let's get to know these two heroes.
Their story began in 2000. In that year, Jia Haixia, who was already blind in the right eye, lost his left one after an illness. The other person, Jia Wenqi, lost his arms in an accident when he was just three years old. Life was really unfair for them. But they didn't give themselves up. Then they rented(租)some poor land and began to plant trees. Jia Haixia and Jia Wenqi never imagined that they would create an environmental wonder(奇迹). After years of hard work, their forest now has over 10, 000 trees, hundreds of birds and many other wild animals.
Their day begins at 7:00 in the morning. They get to their work place after a quick and simple breakfast. Since they cannot afford to buy young trees to plant, they use branches(树枝)from existing(现有)trees. First, Haixia climbs to the tree-top. Next, with Wenqi's direction(指弓), he chooses the perfect branch. Finally, Wenqi waters that newly-planted tree. )
But in fact, they have already got everything that they need — a perfect pair of eyes, two strong hands, and the best friendship in the world!
A. Although hard-working, the two men haven't made much money. B. In addition, it saves the village from river-flooding(洪涝) during the rainy season. C. But together, they are a powerful team. D. They were really sad about themselves E. As they couldn't find a job, the two men decided to make a team. F. It is really dangerous to climb a tree, but Haixia isn't afraid. G. He then digs a hole and carefully plants it. |
