How often do you change your hairstyle or ask for new dresses? You may try to follow trends in Western countries，but your peers(同龄人)in the United States don't care as much about fashion(时尚)as you do．
A recent survey among high school students in China，Japan，South Korea and the US found that Asian teenagers care more about their looks than young peopl e in the US．This survey was held in 156 high schools in the four countries. More than 7,000 teenagers were questioned about their view on life and the world. South Koreans, at 83 percent, cared most
about their appearance. They were followed by the Chinese and Japanese while US students showed the least interest in fashion at only 33 percent.
“The different results show differences of cultural background,” said Sun Yunxiao from the China Youth and Children Research Centre. He explained that in the US there are many different standards of beauty, so teens are more likely to be confident about their appearance.
US teenagers’ high self-confidence is showed in survey. About 85 percent are happy with themselves. The percentage of self-confident Chinese students stands at only 30 percent. Strong ambition( 雄心) is seen in Chinese high schools. Only two in five high school students are satisfied with “an average living”. Koreans are next at 48 percent，Japanese come in at 66 percent and Americans are at 71．
“According to the survey, Chinese students are happy. But Chinese students need to be more independent and learn how to relax.” said Sun.

From the jagged (锯齿状的) peaks of the Himalayas to the powerful Yangtze River that flows into the Pacific, China’s vast terrain (地带) and varied climate make it the sixth most biologically
diverse nation on the planet.
Since 1998, The Nature Conservancy has been working in China’s northwest Yunnan Province to protect some of the amazing natural and cultural diversity unique to this country for its future generations. In cooperation with Chinese local and state government agencies, the Conservancy established the Yunnan Great Rivers Project, which protects an area about the size of West Virginia.

In response, the Conservancy launched a new program called Education for Sustainability which tests means of teaching and learning that combine conservation goals, social justice, and appropriate development and participation in a vision and mission for personal and social change. Promoting Green Tourism
Tourism is both an environmental threat and an economic opportunity, with the potential to provide extremely needed income to northwest Yunnan. The Conservancy is working with local communities, government agencies, and tourism ,enterprises(企业) to develop strategies for “green” tourism which will limit the footprint of mass tourism while generating income for local people.

根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

选项中有两项为多余选项。

Have you heard about Leap year? Leap year is a year that has 366 days instead of the usual 365. It normally occurs every four years，always on an even-numbered year．The extra day is added to our shortest month. That is the second month of the year, which in non-leap years has 28 days, two fewer than any other month．71
We also call Leap year the bissextile year．72 In our calendar system there is a need for a leap year because the so1ar year (the time it takes the earth to go around the sun once)is actually slightly more than 365 days long. That extra day—Feb 29 every four years—helps correct the difference between our calendar and the solar calendar．
It is said that Leap year was first made part of the calendar by the ancient Roman leader Julius Caesar. His astronomers had calculated the length of the solar year to be 365 days and six hours．So Caesar declared that an extra day be added to the calendar．73 However，Caesar’s adjustment was not completely accurate because his astronomers’ year exceeded the true solar year by eleven minutes and fourteen seconds. By 1582, a difference of ten days had developed between the calendar year and the true solar year. To correct this error，Pope Gregory X III ruled that every fourth year would continue to be a leap year except for century years that could not be divided evenly by 400. By this system，century years such as 1700，1800，and 1900 were not leap years，but the year was a leap year．74
People born on Feb 29 celebrate their growing up a little differently from the rest of us.
75 But if they go strictly by the calendar, they have only one-fourth as many birthday celebrations as most people.
A．They acknowledge that they get older each year.
B．when you see Feb 29 on a calendar, you know that year is a leap year.
C．This is its formal, or scientific title.
D．This may seem complicated, but it works．
E. In a leap year, the extra day is added to the second month, giving it 29 instead of the usual 28
days．
F. The leap year was introduced in the Julian calendar in 46 BC.
G．This is done every four years.

One possible version:
Every student will be faced with the question when he passes the college entrance examinations: Should we choose a good major or a good university first?
Opinions are divided on this issue. Some students prefer to consider majors first so that they can learn what they are interested in. A good major can ensure their future success based on their interest and mastery of their major. It will also make it possible for them to take their favorite jobs in the future.
However, those who think differently believe that the environment is important to one’s development and that graduates from leading universities are often more likely to find a good job. It is true that graduates from prestigious universities are popular in talent markets, so, many students would spare no efforts to be enrolled in good universities. To them, entering a good

university means standing on the threshold of a promising career after graduation.
In my opinion, the best choice is a good major at a good university. If we cannot obtain both, the first thing to consider is a good major, because no matter where we study, we can still achieve a lot in a certain field if we try our best. Do not always pursue a good university; choosing a good major suitable to you is wiser.。
