Li Qingzhao (1084-1155) is one of the best-known female writers in Chinese history. She showed great love for writing and was known as a talented special woman then. But her life was a bittersweet (苦乐参半) story.
Born into a famous literary (文学) family, Li was someone who always wanted to destroy old customs and traditions from the start. Women in the Song Dynasty stayed indoors. They didn’t discuss politics, and only spoke when spoken to. But just at the age of 17, Li Qingzhao made a name for herself.
She was lucky in her marriage. In 1101, she married Zhao Mingcheng, with whom she shared the interest in the art collection. They lived in present-day Shandong. They were not wealthy, but they lived happily together. Li and her husband collected many books. They shared a love of poetry and often wrote poems for each other. They sold clothes and went hungry to slowly build up a big library, and they always spent their nights on literary drinking games like this one: An event would be chosen from a pile of books, and the person would win if he/she first named the book, chapter, page, and line where it was found.
This happy life was ruined by the wars of 1127. The Northern Song capital fell this year during the Jin-Song wars. Fighting took place in Shandong and their house was burned. The couple took many of their possessions and ran away to Nanjing, where they lived for a year. Zhao Mingcheng died in 1129, leaving her childless and alone. Li Qingzhao’s life was full of twists and turs (波折), but she left many valuable poems to us.

Does the endless messages and the thought of replying to unread text messages make you stressed (焦虑不安) Texting stress is a real thing, and more common than you’d think.
In the last 25 years, texting has already changed the way we communicate. From QQ to WeChat, likes, shares and group chats join traditional forms of communication like email and texting. Many find themselves tired out from the endless notices and group conversations.
The average person in 2022 checks their phone 262 times a day, up from a daily average of 80 in 2016. On average, each person will have 47 unread text messages and 1,602 unread emails. Yet the average phone screen time is more than ever before, at 4.2 hours per day.
Leah Aguirre, a psychotherapist (心理学家) explains that text conversations are usually a cause of stress as they come with a lot of uncertainty. “We don’t know how someone will reply, if they will reply, or how quickly they will reply. We can’t control other people’s actions or behaviour or how they think, and for people that are more likely to be stressed this can be hard to deal with.”
Text stress can influence (影响) your relationships with friends and loved ones. A 2018 study found that friendships are far more successful when you and the other person have a similar texting style. If both of you reply to texts quickly, the relationship is less likely to hit the rocks. Similarly, if everyone is happy to go hours, days, even weeks with replying to texts, then the relationship is better.
Aguirre suggests limiting (限制) the time you are on your phone will help with the stress. “By reducing the time spent on that making you worried, you’ll feel more relaxed,” she said.
“You can tell yourself that you have no control over another person’s reaction or behaviour. Remind yourself that this is just a phone or a text message and that you are okay and will be okay,” she said.
Now, time to get to all those unanswered texts.
9. The writer listed the data (数据) in Paragraph 3 to tell us __________.
A. texting has taken up too much of our time
B. technology has developed fast over the years
C. cellphone has become a useful tool in daily lives
D. people would like to communicate through messages
10. What can we learn from the passage
A. Too many group conversations often make people stressed.
B. It may be impolite not to reply all the text messages.
C. Whether people get stressed depends on how someone replies.
D. People don’t get stressed if they have similar texting styles with their friends.
11. According to Aguirre, we can reduce texting stress by __________.
①spending less time on the phone
②paying no attention to messages
③communicating in another way
④reminding ourselves to relax
A. ①③ B. ②④ C. ②③ D. ①④
12. Which part of the newspaper is the passage probably from
A. Education. B. Science. C. Society. D. Culture.

During ancient times, children didn’t have smartphone, iPad or computer to entertain them. Instead, they came up with interesting games to play in their childhood. Let’s take a look.
Playing Hide-and-seek Hide-and-seek is a traditional game for children, popular around the nation. There are two ways to play: covering a child’s eyes while other kids run around to play a trick on him or, more commonly, others hide and one child must try to find them.
Flying Kites Kites have quite a long history in China. The earliest kites weren’t made of paper. They were made of wood instead. Nowadays, the three most famous kites are the Beijing kite, Tianjin kite and Weifang kite. Each has its own style. For example, the bird-shaped kite with long wings is a special kind of the Beijing kite.
Watching Shadow Plays The most similar thing to watching a film during ancient times was going to see a shadow play. The artists controlled puppets behind the screen to make the puppets move like people and tell stories. People liked listening to the music and enjoyed the beautiful puppets.
Kicking Stone Balls During the Qing Dynasty (1644-1911), kicking a stone ball around was a popular sport in the northern part of China, and it was often played in winter to keep warm. Stones were carved into small balls and kicked along with feet.
13. In ancient China, the earliest kites were made of __________.
A. paper B. metal C. plastic D. wood
14. The game that’s like watching a film is __________.
A. kicking stone balls B. flying kites
C. watching shadow plays D. playing hide-and-seek
15. From the passage we can learn that __________
A. Tianjin is famous for the bird-shaped kite with long wings.
B. the puppets could move like people with the artists’ controlling.
C. kicking a stone ball was a popular game before the Qing Dynasty.
D. all the children must cover their eyes while playing hide-and-seek.

Does the endless messages and the thought of replying to unread text messages make you stressed (焦虑不安) Texting stress is a real thing, and more common than you’d think.
In the last 25 years, texting has already changed the way we communicate. From QQ to WeChat, likes, shares and group chats join traditional forms of communication like email and texting. Many find themselves tired out from the endless notices and group conversations.
The average person in 2022 checks their phone 262 times a day, up from a daily average of 80 in 2016. On average, each person will have 47 unread text messages and 1,602 unread emails. Yet the average phone screen time is more than ever before, at 4.2 hours per day.
Leah Aguirre, a psychotherapist (心理学家) explains that text conversations are usually a cause of stress as they come with a lot of uncertainty. “We don’t know how someone will reply, if they will reply, or how quickly they will reply. We can’t control other people’s actions or behaviour or how they think, and for people that are more likely to be stressed this can be hard to deal with.”
Text stress can influence (影响) your relationships with friends and loved ones. A 2018 study found that friendships are far more successful when you and the other person have a similar texting style. If both of you reply to texts quickly, the relationship is less likely to hit the rocks. Similarly, if everyone is happy to go hours, days, even weeks with replying to texts, then the relationship is better.
Aguirre suggests limiting (限制) the time you are on your phone will help with the stress. “By reducing the time spent on that making you worried, you’ll feel more relaxed,” she said.
“You can tell yourself that you have no control over another person’s reaction or behaviour. Remind yourself that this is just a phone or a text message and that you are okay and will be okay,” she said.
Now, time to get to all those unanswered texts.

10. What can we learn from the passage
A. Too many group conversations often make people stressed.
B. It may be impolite not to reply all the text messages.
C. Whether people get stressed depends on how someone replies.
D. People don’t get stressed if they have similar texting styles with their friends.
11. According to Aguirre, we can reduce texting stress by __________.
①spending less time on the phone
②paying no attention to messages

During ancient times, children didn’t have smartphone, iPad or computer to entertain them. Instead, they came up with interesting games to play in their childhood. Let’s take a look.
Playing Hide-and-seek Hide-and-seek is a traditional game for children, popular around the nation. There are two ways to play: covering a child’s eyes while other kids run around to play a trick on him or, more commonly, others hide and one child must try to find them.
Flying Kites Kites have quite a long history in China. The earliest kites weren’t made of paper. They were made of wood instead. Nowadays, the three most famous kites are the Beijing kite, Tianjin kite and Weifang kite. Each has its own style. For example, the bird-shaped kite with long wings is a special kind of the Beijing kite.
Watching Shadow Plays The most similar thing to watching a film during ancient times was going to see a shadow play. The artists controlled puppets behind the screen to make the puppets move like people and tell stories. People liked listening to the music and enjoyed the beautiful puppets.
Kicking Stone Balls During the Qing Dynasty (1644-1911), kicking a stone ball around was a popular sport in the northern part of China, and it was often played in winter to keep warm. Stones were carved into small balls and kicked along with feet.
