Places to Spend Christmas in Canada
Quebec City
Quebec City would be a great place to spend the holidays， with stone streets， soft white snow， and some of the most historic and striking architecture in Canada． And there's a lot going on
in the capital of La Belle Province， including an authentic German Christmas market where
you can drink hot wine and look for gifts， and the chance to meet Santa Claus himself at
Fairmont Le Chateau Frontenac Hotel．
St． John's， Newfoundland
In St． John's， Newfoundland， people would disguise （伪装）themselves in whatever small
objects they could find in their homes and show up on their neighbours doorsteps singing，
dancing and celebrating-and not removing their masks until the neighbours correctly guessed
their identities． This fun and festive tradition lives on with an annual Christmas festival，
complete with workshops and a big parade that shows these simple disguises．
Niagara Falls， Ontario
The illumination （照明）of the magnificent waterfalls is part of Niagara Falls' annual Winter Festival of Lights， which sees more than three million lights lighted throughout the
city． There are also weekly fireworks over the falls during the whole festival， and a number
of other festive events， including musicals， shopping fairs and concerts．
Saskatoon
There are few bigger thrills than being a kid at Christmas， especially if you live in Saskatoon． A recent study by the University of Toronto's Rotman School of Management
found that Saskatoon has the highest number of candy and toy stores， in the country， and a
very good probability of having snow on December 25． It's the perfect combination for a
magical Christmas! Grown-ups will also appreciate the booming food scene．

The retired officer runs at a track near his home in Leeds．

competing when he passes a hundred．
"I probably won't be doing a crouch start （蹲式起跑），but it's only 16 years away，" he joked． Like anyone his age， he's had health problems． He's had a string of severe heart attacks， but doctors have told him as long as it makes him feel good， he should carry on running．
"I can't let my heart get in the way of my training． When I am sprinting I have to give it my absolute all． My heart is the last thing on my mind．" he said．
He trains every other day， dances and plays hockey and he recently cuts down on alcohol and chocolate． He said， "I've heard alcohol can lead to dementia and I don't want that． I've cut down to one glass of wine every other day． I now have to stay as fit as I can be to keep up my lifestyle．"

Screens during meals rob kids of opportunities to improve language and communication skills （storytelling， making jokes， etc．）， as well as to develop patience and even imagination as they entertain themselves waiting for food to arrive．
Meals are an opportunity to connect， to learn more about and enjoy each other． They strengthen the bonds that will bring benefits to the rest of our lives． We squander that opportunity when we stick a screen in front of our kids during dinner．
Of course， we all want to have enjoyable family meals， which is why I love Bruce Feiller's book "The Secrets of Happy Families"， in which he devotes an entire chapter to ways to make them fun and meaningful for everyone---such as "fill in the blank" sentences you make
up． Sharing something good and something challenging makes for pleasant conversations， too． And I've had fun playing Uno with my daughters until the food arrives in a restaurant． "The game you're going to try during your next family meal is The American Academy of Pediatrics （小儿科）also offers guidelines to help families manage children's screen time． The academy recommends avoiding digital media for children under 2， except for video-chatting， and limiting screen time to just one hour a day of high-quality programming for children ages 2 to 5．
Fundamentally ， we all benefit from more human connection ， not less - and that's especially true for children ． Schools ， airplane trips ， most jobs ， games ， even "social" interaction were all once done without screens but now are filled with them ． And while we have gained some advantages ， including new connections ， we have lost something fundamental ， as well ． Less is always more when it comes to screens ， even if they are effective at keeping kids quiet ． But soon after complaining that they are "bored ， " kids have a natural tendency to fill the screenless void （空虚）with creative games ， art ， exploration and conversation ． There are no studies that warn against having too many hours of those activities ．
Let's all work harder to keep family meals special by getting rid of the iPads and nourishing our personal connections as we nourish our bodies ．
8. What's the author's attitude to the kids' staring at screens during meals ？ ______
A. Disapproving ．
B. Favorable ．
C. Cautious ．
D. Unconcerned ．
9. What does the underlined word "squander" in paragraph 2 probably mean ？ ______
A. Take ．
B. Waste ．
C. Expect ．
D. Create ．
10. What will kids do if they have no access to screens ？ ______
A. Keep quiet ．
B. Refuse to eat ．
C. Feel bored all the time ．
D. Find ways to entertain themselves ．
11. What is the author's purpose in writing this passage ？ ______
A. To introduce the iPads to the children ．
B. To stress the importance of family meals ．
C. To appeal for family meals without screens ．
D. To teach parents how to punish their children ．

A 23-year-old British woman has invented a product that she hopes will one day take the place of single-use plastic ． The new product is made by combining fishing waste and algae （藻类）．类）． Lucy Hughes created the material ， called MarinaTex ， for her final year project at the University of Sussex ． She continued her research after she left the university ． On November 13， the James Dyson Foundation announced that Hughes was the international winner of the 2019 James Dyson Award for design ．
MarinaTex is edible ， meaning it can be eaten without danger ． Hughes says it also is strong and stable ． But unlike plastic ， MarinaTex breaks down in four to six weeks under normal conditions and does not pollute the soil ．
The inventor said she is concerned about the growing amounts of plastics in ocean waters ． She noted one report that there would be more plastic than fish in the world's oceans by the year 2050．
The United Nations estimates that 100 million tons of plastic waste has already been left in the oceans ．
Hughes also was investigating ways to reduce the amount of waste from the fishing
industry ． The industry produces an estimated 50 million tons of waste worldwide each year ， UN officials say ．
Hughes told Reuters that she was "trying to work out how I could use the waste stream and add value to that waste ．" Examining fish parts left over from processing helped to give her the idea for a material that was useful and did not harm the environment ．
To create a strong material ， Hughes added the molecule chitosan ， which comes from sea
creatures like crabs， and agar， a material from red algae．
After months of testing， Hughes produced a strong， flexible sheet that forms at temperatures below 100 degrees Celsius．
Inventor James Dyson said that MarinaTex is "stronger， safer and much more sustainable"
than the plastic polyethylene． It is also easier to break down than other possible replacement
products for polyethylene， the material that single-use plastic bags are made of．
Hughes will receive about $41，000 in prize money as the first place winner of the James Dyson
Award． She told Reuters that she plans to use the money to better develop the product and
ways to mass produce it．
12. When did Lucy Hughes create MarinaTex ______
A. At university．
B. After graduation．
C. Before going to university．
D. After winning the James Dyson Award．
13. What's true about MarinaTex？ ______
A. It is delicious．
B. It is environmentally friendly．
C. It is a type of plastics．
D. It exists for a long time in nature．
14. What helped to give her the idea for MarinaTex ______
A. Observing the process of fishing．
B. Studying different parts of a fish．
C. Checking waste from the fishing industry．
D. Examining left-over fish parts after cooking．
15. In which section of a newspaper may this text appear ______
A. Entertainment．
B. Education．
C. Lifestyle．
D. Technology．
