“This lady is in her 60s, lives alone and often needs help,” said Chen, 45, a volunteer of “Time Bank”. The government in Haikou, Hainan has run the Time Bank programme for 3 years to help make the life of local elderly people easier.
Time Bank collects the daily needs of the old in communities and then posts the orders on a programme online. Volunteers then take the orders and offer the services (服務) to those in need. Each volunteer can get the “time currency (貨幣)” for every hour of voluntary service they offer. They can use the currency to ask for the voluntary services when they grow old themselves, or give away their currency to others in need of elderly care.
Wu Meiling helps with the monthly activities of the programme. “Most of the elderly people on the programme are those who live alone, or those in poor health. But the volunteers come from all walks of life, such as teachers, doctors and workers,” said Wu. “Time Bank provides a chance for volunteers to get to know each other and learn new skills from others. By exchanging time and skills, members can develop the spirit (精神) of mutual aid, save costs and build stronger communities.”
“However, the Time Bank programme needs more changes,” said Li Jinling, a leader of the programme. “Many elderly people do not know about the programme or do not know how to order it online. We’ll go on working hard to get more people interested in it.”
21. Why does the local government run the programme
A. To raise money for the old. B. To help the poor in the city.
C. To improve the life of the old. D. To offer jobs to young people.
22. What can the volunteers use their “time currency” to do
A. Buy gifts in shops. B. Save money in banks.
C. Pay for online courses. D. Get free voluntary services.
23. What does the underlined words “mutual aid” mean
A. Helping each other. B. Respecting old people.
C. Protecting the environment D. Loving our country.
24. What’s mainly talked about in the last paragraph
A. The ways to invite volunteers to Time Bank. B. The problems Time Bank meets at present.
C. The changes Time Bank has already made. D. The activities Time Bank plans to organize.
25. What is the writer’s purpose of writing the article
A. To ask people to be kind to the elderly. B. To teach people to make money by doing good.
C. To recommend people to save joy in Time Bank. D. To help people know about Time Bank programme.
B
In small villages, people often say hello to their neighbors in stores, on the streets, or outside their homes. But in cities, many people don’t greet their neighbors, even when they are standing in line at a supermarket. A recent study shows that greeting neighbors, especially up to six people a day, is really good for you.
The study has found that greeting others can make you happier. The magic number is six. When you greet up to six people, your happiness score goes up. After that, the score shows no further rise. The study was carried out last year and got replies from more than 4, 000 people. It tested people’s social happiness, physical happiness, community happiness and more. People who greeted six neighbors had a much higher happiness score than those who didn’t greet anyone.
You might think that saying hello is only about social happiness, but that’s not true. Regular (經常的) greetings also improve your physical and community happiness. ▲ If you feel your community is safe, it’s more possible for you to talk to people. Walking around your neighborhood can make you feel better physically.
Dan Witters, the leader of the study, said, “we don’t mean that you should know the person well. Just stop and talk to them. The more people you greet, the more chances you have to start a conversation.”
Remember, saying hello regularly is a good way to improve your own happiness.
26. How does the writer lead into the topic
A. By telling a story. B. By explaining the reason.
C. By asking a question. D. By introducing different actions.
27. Which of the following shows the change in happiness score after people greet neighbors
A. B. C. D.
28. Which sentence can be put in ▲
A. That’s because all of these are joined together. B. It’s best to greet your neighbors in the morning.
C. Different neighbors can greet you in different ways. D. The reason is they have nothing to do with each other.
29. What can we learn from Dan Witters’ words
A. The more people you know, the happier you are.
B. Saying hello may help people start a conversation.
C. Nothing improves happiness more than conversations.
D. Knowing people is more important than greeting them.
30. What is the main idea of the passage
A. The differences between village life and city life.
B. The importance of knowing neighbors well in cities.
C. The good points of greeting neighbors in our daily life.
D. The useful way to help people get to know neighbours.

Zheng got the idea for the vegetable blind boxes by accident. One day, he noticed that his garden grew more vegetables than his family could eat. He then shared some photos of the vegetables online.

Zheng’s business also helps other villagers. To provide enough vegetables, he has worked with the local farmers. He has paid farmers to use 32 mu of their unused land. Zheng not only helps farmers make more money but also reduces waste. Sometimes he can sell over 200 boxes every day, which is more than 600 kg of vegetables!

How to be a person with good manners
As the saying goes, “Manners make the man”. A person with good manners behaves politely. As teenagers, what should we do to show good manners
Above all, when in public places, it’s polite of us to keep our voice down. We should be patient enough to queue for our turns.
What’s more, it’s important for us to have good table manners. When we are sitting at the table, we should not start eating until everyone is ready. It’s polite to wait for everyone to finish before we leave the table.
At school, we must follow all the school rules. It’s a good habit to greet teachers with a warm smile. We should respect our classmates.
Let’s practice good manners to make ourselves better people!
