For middle and primary school students, being able to cook has become a must. They will also need to learn how to plant vegetables, raise poultry (家禽) and maintain home appliances (维修电器) under new requirements for labor (劳动) education.

The Ministry of Education (MOE) brought out a new standard for labor education in schools last year. Starting from 2022 fall semester, students in primary and middle schools have to take courses on labor skills at least once a week.

The new standards include three types of labor tasks. The first is basic life skills like everyday household chores, including cleaning, cooking, using and maintaining home appliances. Next is industry and agriculture (农业) labor practice, including new technologies like 3D printing, and traditional crafts (工艺) learning. The third type is service work such as community volunteer services.

Schools in China have traditionally placed more focus on studying, and many have regarded household chores as a waste of children’s time. But according to the MOE, labor education must be built up to help students enrich their life experience, cultivate(培养) a positive view of labor, value hard work, and develop an interest in labor.

Online people have been busy discussing the new standards on social media.

Li Ting, a mother of 6-year-old twins in Shanghai strongly supports labor education. For the past year, she trained her daughters to do chores and make simple dishes for the family.

“The main idea is to let kids share responsibility and become independent as early as they can,” said Wang Peng, a father from Guangdang.

“Children’s hand-eye coordination(协调) time management and organization skills can be trained by doing housework,” said Sun Yunxiao, a parenting expert.

They all agree that children will find fun in doing chores through such education.

26．What can a ninth-grade student learn through labor education?

a. How to plant vegetables.

b. How to raise chicken or ducks.

c. How to be more careful in class.

d. How to repair computers or fridges.

A．a b c B．a b d C．b c d D．a c d

27．The meaning of the underlined word “enrich” in Paragraph 4 is ________.

A．improve B．teach C．achieve D．value

28．What does Sun Yunxiao think of labor education?

A．It lets students share responsibility and become independent.

B．It helps students enrich life experience.

C．It takes up too much of students’ free time.

D．It helps students manage their time better.

29．What is the main idea of this passage?

A．New courses of household chores for primary school students.

B．Labor education for primary and middle school students.

C．People’s opinions on labor education.

D．New technological skills used in primary and middle schools.

30．If we put the passage into three parts, which of the following is best ? (①=Para.1)

A．①②; ③④; ⑤⑥⑦⑧⑨ B．①; ②③④⑤⑥⑦⑧; ⑨

When Emily was four years old, her grandfather gave her a hammer for her birthday. She loved using it to make toys from old things that nobody used any more.

When she was a teenager, she thought about inventing something to help others. Emily’s grandfather had arthritis (关节炎). His hands and fingers hurt seriously. He had difficulty getting toothpaste out of the tube. So she created a product to help him, and won the Young Engineer for Britain Award.

A few years later, Emily learned about the situation that people often walked a long distance to get water in some African countries. They could only carry one bucket (桶) at a time, and they usually put it on their heads. Emily’s invention was a simple water carrier. The “wheel” on the water carrier was made from wood. It made it possible for women to transport up to five buckets each time.

Her latest project is a simple fridge that runs without electricity using only the energy that comes from the sun. There are now many families in villages in Zambia and South Africa using it.

Emily is now a young woman. She is the winner of several prizes for her inventions. She is named one of the world’s top ten young people. She often visits schools and encourages teenagers to come up with new ideas that make the world a better place. She wants to use her skills to make a difference.
