WeChat is a social mobile application with voice and text messaging timeline and several social features like ‘Message in a Bottle’. WeChat, a popular instant messaging tool run by Tencent Holdings, aims to help users access mobile services without downloading separate apps, which experts said may challenge the business of smartphone app distributors such Apple Store.
This new feature, named ‘Mini Programs’, allows WeChat users to find a variety of services such as ticket buying by scanning a QR (quick-response) code, saving them the trouble of installing a number of different apps on smart devices, according to the transcript of a speech by Zhang Xiaolong, Tencent’s senior executive vice president, on Wednesday. The new function is expected to come online on January 9.
Zh ang, known as the father of WeChat, emphasized that ‘Min Programs’ is
not a mobile app distributing function.
Still, experts and app developers said that the rollout (推出) of ‘Mini Programs’ on WeChat will erode the market share of app distributors like Apple
Store in China.
“‘Mini Programs’ will attract lots of start-ups, because a program based on WeChat can help them build up businesses at much lower costs,〞 a Shanghai-based app developer, told the Global Times Wednesday.
If a start-up wants to promote its business via a separate application, it has to hire a special team to develop two different apps— one each for iOS and Android.
Lsiunched in 2021, WeChat has evolved to include services such as ‘Order Taxi’, ‘Food Delivery’, e-commerce and payments from just an instant messaging app.
28. What can we know about ‘Mini Programs’?
A. It’s expensive.
B. It’s complex.
C. It’s convenient.
D. It’s free.
29. Why do lots of start-ups choose the ‘Mini Programs’?
A. It can cut the costs of building business.
B. It can help build up business.
C. It can help them make a big fortune.
D. It can promote their business.
30. What does the underlined word “erode〞 probably mean in Paragraph 4?
A. reduce
B. increase
C. improve
D. promote
31. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?
A. WeChat will be a perfect app.
B. WeChat will meet a great
challenge.
C. WeChat will meet needs of more people.
D. WeChat will replace other apps.

A new study shows that rising levels of planet-warming gases may reduce important nutrients〔营养物质〕in food crops
Researchers studied the effects of carbon dioxide on rice. In the experiment， scientists grew 18 kinds of rice in fields in China and Japan．They set carbon dioxide levels to what scientists are predicting for our planet by the end of the century．Rice grown under high carbon dioxide conditions had，on average，13 to 30 percent lower levels of four B vitamins and 10 percent less protein〔蛋白质〕The crops also had 8 percent less iron and 5 percent less zinc than rice grown under normal conditions. However, vitamin E levels increased by about 13 percent on average．
The researchers said the effects of planet-warming gases would be most severe for the poorest citizens in some of the least developed countries．These people generally eat the most rice and have the least complex diets．That includes about 600 million people in Indonesia， Cambodia，Myanmar，Bangladesh，Laos and other nations，mainly in Southeast Asia．
Other studies have shown that higher temperatures from climate change and weather extremes will reduce food production．But scientists are finding that rising levels of carbon dioxide and other planet-warming gases threaten food quality．
Earlier studies showed that wheat，rice，field peas and soybeans grown under high carbon dioxide conditions all had lower levels of protein and minerals．Scientists predicted that almost 150 million people might be at risk of having too little protein or zinc in their diet by 2050．
The new study suggests a way to lower the nutritional harm of climate change．That is to grow different forms of rice that can adapt to higher carbon dioxide levels．
32．Growing rice under high carbon dioxide conditions may____．
A．increase iron in the rice B．make it more delicious
C．cause losses of Vitamin E D．make it less nutritious
33．How can people reduce the nutritional harm of climate change？
A．By importing rice from China and Japan．
B．By taking other kinds of food instead of rice．
C．By avoiding eating rice from Southeast Asia．
D．By growing rice suitable for the environment．
34．What’s the author’s purpose of writing the text？
A．To inform readers what nutrients food crops contain．
B．To call on people to care for the planet they live on．
C．To share the results of some studies on people’s diets．
D．To tell readers where food crops are mainly produced．
35．In which part of a magazine can you read the text？
A．Advertisements． B．Arts and culture．
C．Science report． D．Business news．

How to Be a Good Listener to Your Family
Communication is important for strong family relationships． 36 Working on your listening skills can help you communicate better and form stronger bonds．
Listen actively. When listening to a family member，do not let your mind wander to other things．It’s important to make your family member feel heard and valued. Put your phone away and give them your full attention．Never think about other things when someone is talking． 37 ．
Repeat what has been said．Briefly summarizing what the speaker has said can go a long way towards effective communication. Everyone wants to feel valued and h eard, so repeating a family member’s point can show you were listening. 38 It can really allow you and your family to communicate better as well.
39 Interrupting can put breaks on effective conversation. Always allow a few seconds of silence after someone finishes talking before offering your response．This allows you to make sure the speaker has finished talking．Do not talk over someone either．No matter how curious you feel about a subject, do not start talking until the other person has finished.
Avoid hurrying the speaker．40 Do not break in before the speaker is finished just to hurry the speaker along. Never say things like，"Can you get to
the point?" This will make it seem like you’re not interested in the conversation.
A．Do not interrupt.
B．Never rush the person talking.
C．Instead, focus on what’s being said.
D．People tend to pause when they speak.
E．It can help you make sure you understood the speaker.
F．When someone finishes talking, ask questions if necessary.
G．However, if you don’t truly listen to others, it can be difficult to communicate.

I am an 18-year old middle school student. I have been busy with my study and seldom helped my parents with the housework. Feeling quite sorry for that, I begin to think about what to do to help.
Last Sunday, when my parents went out shopping, I suddenly got an idea: why not give the rooms a thorough cleaning? Firstly I collected all the books, newspapers and other things scattered in the rooms and put them in place. Then I wiped the dust off all the furniture. After that, I swept and mopped the floors.
At this very moment, my parents came back and were quite surprised to see all the rooms tidy and floors shining. My mother gave me a hug and I could see satisfaction in her eyes. Tired as I was, I never felt so happy.
