Fireworks explosions killed many people and injured hundreds more in China as the 2006 traditional Lunar New Year celebrations led to much disorder as well as joy across the nation.

    At a temple fair in Henan, 36 people were killed on New Year's Day when a nearby storeroom full of fireworks exploded. The accident, caused by 3 children who threw burning fireworks into the storeroom, injured up to 48 people.

    In the capital, Beijing, where a 12-year ban on Lunar New Year fireworks had just been lifted, the government reported 112 people were treated at hospital emergency rooms over the weekend for fireworks-related injuries.

    "On New Year's Eve alone, we had more than 40 injuries and among them there were around a dozen people with serious injuries," hospital assistant director，Tian Jian said. In China's south-western city, Chongqing, where the fireworks ban was also lifted after 12 years, firefighters rushed to put out nearly 200 fires caused by fireworks on New Year's Eve.

    A ban on fireworks, which are traditionally believed to ward off evil spirits and ghosts trying to enter New Year, was put in place across 200 cities in China due to safety and environmental pollution concerns. The ban was lifted in Beijing and many other cities in 2006.

    However, despite the fireworks disorder, China's 1.3 billion people were largely enjoying the festival, with celebrations to continue throughout all of this week-long public holiday.

第二節(jié)：讀寫任務(wù)（共1小題，滿分25分）

閱讀下面的短文，然后按照要求寫一篇150詞左右的英語短文。

An Internet war of words is violent between China’s younger generations---the 1980s and the 1990s---commonly known as the “Strawberries” and the “Jellies”. It’s about values and identity, who’s patriotic and responsible, who’s spoiled.

The Strawberries see the Jellies as “self-centered and irresponsible, materialistic, spoiled kids.” while the Jellies see the Strawberries as “out-of-date.”

Retired English teacher Paul Wang has taught both the 1980s and 1990s students and worries more about kids the latter. “I worry more about the 1990s, because kids from the 1980s, although naughty and rebellious, would still listen to teachers, if not fear teachers. They have different opinions and would argue with me, but there was still respect.” Kids today are different, says Wang. “They know your salary, they know that you won’t criticize them and many of them don’t respect us any more.”

Since the earthquake on May 12th, media have shown a greater appreciation of the 1980s generation. “ We used to feel disappointed about the 1980s, but they showed unbelievable courage and energy after the earthquake and proved they are patriotic and responsible enough to support this nation. However, the 1990s generation is listless. They don’t know what they want because they have everything. They don’t care about anything else except themselves.”
