Cnfucianism (儒家思想) has been fllwed by Chinese peple fr mre than tw thusand years.

Ren is the feeling f care and lve we shuld have fr thers. Cnfucius explained ren culd best be understd as lving thers. He is famus fr teaching peple “What yu d nt want dne t yurself, d nt d t thers”. It is quite similar t what is knwn in the West as the Glden Rule (treat thers as yu wish t be treated).

（2023·江苏扬州·统考中考真题）What wuld happen if yu tried t blw a sap (肥皂) bubble in belw-freezing weather? Wuld it freeze and fall t the grund? Wuld yu have t hit it with a stne t break it? These questins came int my mind ne cld winter day. It was t cld t play in the snw, but it was a perfect time t experiment with blwing frzen bubbles.
T blw frzen bubbles, I had t wait until the air utside was very cld. Fr this activity, that meant 10 degrees belw 0 Fahrenheit r clder. I didn’t have the bubble things that cme in a bttle, s I used dish-washing sap. Adding a drp f glycerin made the sap wrk even better. I chse a place ut f the wind, and blew bubbles the same way I always d. I watched t see what wuld happen. Here’s what I learned.
If the temperature is lw enugh, the skin f the bubble frsts (结霜) ver, becming cludy instead f clear. And what abut thse rainbw swirls (漩涡状物体) that yu see in sap bubbles? The rainbw clrs stay even (均匀的) when the bubbles frst, but they dn’t spin anymre. The bubbles still flat in the air. They dn’t fall t the grund any faster than they wuld n a warm summer day.
When these frzen bubbles break, they dn’t turn int tiny drps f sap as summer bubbles d. They turn int shiny rainbw pieces and fly slwly t the grund. Smetimes a frzen bubble will rll acrss the snw withut breaking. If it breaks, it may leave a strng bubble skin n the grund. Leave the bubble alne and it may stay there fr a lng time.
Smetimes I culd catch a bubble and hld it until the heat f my hand made it pp.
I learned ne ther thing abut blwing frzen bubbles. It’s s much fun. I want t try it again next year!

（2023·浙江杭州·统考中考真题）We all enjy being part f a grup—there’s n better wrk than teamwrk, right? Actually, I disagree. Teamwrk can be hard. In fact, it was s difficult that I left my ffice jb and started wrking frm hme n my wn. It’s a much better fit fr me, and it has made me think abut why teamwrk can make ur jbs harder rather than easier.
Persnalities (个性) can make teamwrk difficult. There’s ften smene n the team that puts their needs first. The team ften ges alng with this persn, whse ideas might nt be the best, just the ludest. Just ne difficult persnality can make teamwrk hard. Cmbine (结合) several challenging persnality types, and it’s even harder.
Nt having enugh time tgether can als make teamwrk challenging. Fr example, I was nce n a team where we never had enugh time t meet as a grup. T successfully wrk as a team, yu need time tgether—and lts f it.
A final reasn teamwrk is difficult is because there’s ften n training n hw t wrk n a team. Yu can’t just put peple in a rm and expect them t wrk well with each ther. Yu need t build trust with yur team members. Think f ftball players: They aren’t just given a ball and tld t play. They practice, and they train.
Team can be hard, but wrking alne has its challenges, t. When my cmputer desn’t wrk, I dn’t have an IT persn t turn t. When I have a great idea, I dn’t have anyne t share it with t see if it really is a great idea. Dn’t get me wrng—I still like my team f ne and enjy making all f the imprtant decisins myself. But nw I realize what was wrng with the teamwrk I did in the past and hw gd teamwrk culd be if dne crrectly. And that’s useful infrmatin—because ne day I might want t turn my ME TEAM int a WE TEAM.

Back in Brisbane, Australia, fr the Christmas break, I fund myself in a public transprt dead zne. Bikeless, 7 kilmeters frm where I was meeting friends and unwilling t get a taxi, I decided t brrw an electric scter. The trip tk far lnger than it wuld have by bike, mainly because f a majr spill halfway there. A rck, hit at speed, is a terrible thing: weeks later, I still had the red knees f a primary schler.
In the UK, they are legal (合法的) nly n private land, but the Department fr Transprt is discussing hw t cntrl them n public rads and pathways, with the pssibility fr legalizatin later this year. Other cities that have e-scter rental prgrams have had prblems in the early perid. In Paris, Mayr Anne Hidalg described the situatin last year as messy. She has annunced that the city is reducing its number f e-scters t 15,000 and plans t create laws frbidding them frm pavements (人行道). France has put int frce laws limiting e-scter speeds t 25 kilmetres per hur.
Similar t dckless (无桩的) hire bicycles, e-scters are parked n pavements and peple leave them up trees r thrw them int rivers. Wild treatment shrtens their lifetime, which is bad fr bth prfitability (盈利) and the envirnment. Analysis suggests that the average e-scter’s lifetime is just three mnths.
I think e-scters are an basic part f the effrt t make city transprt greener. They are seen as a key t the “last mile” prblem—a ptential way t reduce transprt jam by rapidly getting smene t their final gal. Cars can take up 28 times the space f a persn riding a bicycle. As far as the envirnmental effect ges, recent research suggests that e-scters are nt as green as walking r cycling, but they are still better than cars. And thugh there are still many reprts f serius accidents, scting is abut as safe as cycling. Stephen Gssling at Lund University in Sweden has suggested we build car-free “micrmbility” streets, where cyclists, pedestrians (行人) and e-scters culd share the rad. He thinks this will reduce accident risks and invite mre vulnerable (易受伤害的) traffic participants, such as children, t becme active transprt users. If mre e-scters mean fewer cars n rads, an imprvement in lcal air quality is als a likely result. When 20 kilmeters f rads in central Lndn clsed fr Wrld Car-Free Day last September, the air quality was greatly imprved accrding t the reprt.

Sweden prduces abut 4. 4 millin tns f waste a year, but nly 1% makes its way t the landfill. When it cmes t waste management, Sweden is ahead f its time. Hw has Sweden dne it?
In Sweden, everyne wrks hard t make the envirnment free f waste. Peple are taught t recycle frm a very yung age. They are asked t return cans and bttles t supermarkets. The gvernment places recycling statins n mre than 300 meters frm hmes, schls, and ffices. These all help waste management in Sweden much easier and mre practical.
The cuntry als rewards thse wh recycle. In 1984, Sweden started the panta system. It encurages peple t recycle bttles in exchange fr mney. The prcess is very simple. Peple put their items int a machine. Each piece has a small barcde that tells the machine hw much it is wrth. Peple can cllect a vucher fr that amunt by pressing a green buttn, r they can dnate the mney t charity by pressing a yellw buttn. In 2021, the Swedish recycled 1.8 billin bttles and cans by using panta system.
Sweden recycles nearly 50% f what it thrws away. But what abut the ther half? ________ Altgether Sweden has 34 waste-t-energy plants that prvide 1, 445, 000 hmes with heat and 780, 000 hmes with electricity. Changing waste int energy has reduced Sweden’s CO2 emissins by 2.2 millin tns a year. In 2016, Sweden had started running ut f trash, s it began imprting waste frm ther cuntries. It nt nly keeps the plants wrking, but als lets Sweden make much mney. That is what makes Sweden different frm the ther cuntries.
Sweden’s waste management has made a great success. But still, the cuntry is wndering hw it can d mre. They hpe t see a day when landfills are a thing f the past.

（2023·山东日照·校考一模）TOKYO, JAPAN — What d yu d when yu see a cckrach (蟑螂)? D yu hit it with a newspaper? D yu step n it?
When researchers at Tky University see a cckrach, they take the remte cntrl and make the cckrach turn arund, run left r right, r g frward. These scientists are changing the cckraches int rbts. Each cckrach has a very small packet that has in it a micrprcessr(微处理器). Then researchers can send signals frm the remte cntrl t the packet. The signals cntrl the mvements f the cckraches.
Why des anyne want t cntrl a cckrach? “Insects can d many things that peple can’t,” says Isa Shimyama, head f rbt research at Tky University. In a few years, he says, these rbt insects will carry very small cameras. They will be able t mve thrugh earthquake rubble(瓦砾) t lk fr peple r mve under drs t find infrmatin abut smene.
This may seem strange, but the Japanese gvernment thinks the research is very imprtant. The gvernment is giving the scientists $ 5 millin fr this research.
First, the researchers breed (培育) hundreds f cckraches. They use nly the American cckrach because it is bigger and strnger than ther cckraches. Then they chse the best cckraches and remve their wings and antennae(触须). They put small packs where the antennae were. The packs weigh abut three grams, r abut tw times the weight f the cckraches themselves. “Cckraches are very strng,” says Ralph Hlzer, wh is a researcher at Tky University. “They can lift 20 times their wn weight.”
With a remte cntrl, the scientists send signals t the packs. When a cckrach gets the signal, it mves. The prblem is that the cckraches dn’t always mve in the right directin.
9．The scientists are changing the cckraches int rbts because ________.
A．they want cckraches t d things peple can’t in the future
B．they want t cntrl the mvements f the cckraches
C．they want cckraches t take phts f the earthquakes
D．they want t send signals t the packs n the cckraches
10．What can cckraches d t help peple?
