A teacher decided to have her class play a game. The teacher told each student to bring a plastic bag with a few potatoes in it to school. Each student would “name” their potatoes after people they did not like. Therefore, the number of potatoes would be different depending on how many people each student disliked.

The next day, all the students brought their potatoes to school. Some kids had just one or two potatoes, while the others had as many as five or six. The teacher then told the children that they would have to carry their potatoes with them everywhere they went for one week.

Several days passed by. Some of the students started to complain, as their potatoes began to rot (腐爛) and smell bad. The students who carried more potatoes also complained about how heavy their bags were.

One week later, the game was over. The teacher asked, “How did you feel about carrying around your potatoes for a week?” The students complained once again. The teacher simply smiled and said, “This is what it’s like to carry hatred (仇恨) in your heart. You have to carry it with you wherever you go. If you can’t stand carrying rotten potatoes for one week, can you imagine having hatred in your heart for a whole lifetime?”

It can be quite tiring to carry hatred in your heart for a whole lifetime. Please forgive(原諒) others and move on with your life. That’s our best choice.

Chinese buyers used to like foreign brands, thinking that products made by American or European companies are of higher quality than Chinese ones. Increasingly, that's no longer the case.

Chinese people born before 1985 generally think that foreign brands are better than Chinese ones, billionaire William Li told Business Insider(商業(yè)內(nèi)幕) during a recent interview on CCTV9.

But for those who were born after 1985, it is a different picture.

"When I first went to the United Kingdom in 1997, I thought that the difference between China and Europe was quite big," Li said. "But for those born in the 1990s, when they visit Europe or the US, they do not think there is a big difference."

The change in thinking among Chinese buyers is showing up in many markets in China where Western companies used to control. A study by Credit Suisse（瑞士信貸）published(發(fā)表) in March found that young Chinese buyers are increasingly showing a "home brand bias（偏愛）” .

More than 90% of young Chinese buyers would prefer to buy home appliance（設(shè)備） brands, according to the study. Meanwhile, home companies producing food, drinks, or personal care products increased their share of the market by 3.3% over the last ten years to nearly 70%.

"Chinese buyers, especially the younger ones, don't just believe that foreign brands are better.

Right now, Chinese buyers think China is good and ' Made in China' is not bad at all," Charlie Chen, head of China buyer research at Credit Suisse, told South China Morning Post in March.

The Chinese smartphone market is controlled by home companies—Huawei, Oppo, Vivo, and Xiaomi. Apple is the only foreign brand in the top five, but it has lost large ground to the home brands in recent years. Its market share is believed to be down to 37%from a 2015 high of 54%.

1.The underlined word “share” in the passage means________ in Chinese.

A.分享 B.份額 C.分擔(dān)

2.William Li found a big difference between ________ in 1997.

A.China andAmerica B.China and Europe C.America and Europe

3.Who did most of the research for this report?

4.Which of the following is true?

A.More and more foreigners go to buy Chinese products.

B.Older Chinese people don’t like foreign products any more.

C.More and more Chinese people prefer Chinese products.

5.What's the best title for this passage?

C."Made in China" is welcomed all over the world.

Once upon a time, there was a famous saint admired by the local people who lived lonely in the hills. 1. _, they used to ask him for help, and certainly he was wise enough to answer any difficult questions. Every time, he could give the right answers and offer the ways to solve the problems for the people who needed.

2.One day he caught a bird and held it in his cupped hands (捧著的手掌). Then he gathered his friends around. He said “Let's play a trick on that old man. 3. . Of course, he’ll answer that I have a bird. Then I will ask him if the bird is alive or dead. If he says the bird is dead, I'll open my hands and let the bird fly away. If he says the bird is alive, I'll quickly crush （壓壞）it and show him the dead bird. Either way, he'll be wrong. "

4. Up the hill, they went to the old man's house.

"Saint, we have a question for you, they all shouted. What's in my hands?”Asked the little boy. "Well, it must be a bird, "replied the old man." 5.? "Asked the excited boy. The saint thought for a moment and then replied, “It is up to you, my child.”
