26、her. He found it interesting to learn Chinese and Chinese culture. I even taught him some Ningbo dialect(方言). It was a fun experience for me.Then I began to wonder how these two countries, thousands of kilometers apart, are able to be closely linked today. My mother told me it is because of the Belt

27、 and Road Initiative. More than 2,000 years ago, Chinese people explored and opened up routes of trade and cultural exchanges. This was called the Silk Road.

32、CCOVID-19 has made people think harder about their relationship with nature. It has also raised questions about urban (城市的) lifestyles. The sharing economy (共享经济), working in open offices, living in crowded apartments and the food industrys use of reusable products have made the perfect storm for a

33、pandemic (大流行).Although the sharing economy might be good its cheaper to rent than to own sharing spaces and objects are great ways to spread the virus(传播病毒). How does one do “social distancing (和他人保持安全距离)” when they are expected to share cars, bikes, apartments and even the same offices?The trend (

34、趋势) of using open offices, which can save space, is working against us.In this type of office, workers dont have their own desk everything is shared. Sometimes, computers and chairs are also shared, which is not hygienic (卫生的). Fortunately, more workers are working from home during the pandemic, but

35、 that wont last forever. Reusability (循环利用) is a common practice in the restaurant industry. Reusable cups and chopsticks are often used. Unluckily, reusable products increase the chance of spreading disease(疾病). For example, Starbucks recently stopped refilling (重新装满) customers reusable cups in ord

36、er to stop the spread of the virus. People like to be social. But the virus has made this more dangerous. We have to be careful about how we interact (交往) with others for now.

39、stylesB. the sharing economy wont last foreverC. no one can stay out of the sharing economyD. we shouldnt stay away from shared productsDHow could we tell time if there were no watches or clocks anywhere in the world? The sun was probably the worlds first “clock”, except in the far north, where the

40、Eskimos live. There, its dark most of the winter, and light most of the summer. But in most of the world, people have used the sun for a clock. Even today, if you dont have a clock, you still know that when the sun shines, its day, and when its dark, its night. The sun can also tell you if its morni

41、ng, noon, or afternoon.People who live near the sea can tell time from the tides. In the daytime, for about six hours, the water rises higher and higher on the beach. And then it goes down and down for about six hours. The same thing happens again at night. There are two high tides and two low tides

42、 every 24 hours.Seamen on a ship learn how to tell time by looking at the moon and the stars. The whole sky is their clock.In some places in the world the wind comes up at about the same time every day or changes direction or stops blowing. In these places the wind can be the clock.
