Once Lu Xun spoke to the young men about the study of foreign languages. He said, “You mustn’t give up studying foreign languages for even a day. To master a language, words and grammatical rules are not enough. You must do a lot of reading. Take a book and force yourself to read it. At the same time, turn to dictionaries and memorize grammatical rules. After reading a book, it’s only natural that yon won’t understand it at all. Never mind. Put it aside, and start another one. In a few months or half a year, go over the first book again; you are sure to understand much more than before. Young people have good memories.

Why do Chinese people tend to eat dumplings or drink ginger soup on certain days?
The answer comes from 24 solar terms, which were added on Nov 30, 2016 to the UNESCO list of Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity(人类非物质文化遗产).
Unlike the four general seasons, China’s 24 solar terms are based on people’s observations of the sun’s annual movements and its influence on the climate. The calender divides the year into 24 parts to guide agricultural activities, such as when to sow seeds and when to harvest them.
The 24 solar terms are: Start of Spring(立春), Rain Water(雨水), Awakening of Insects(惊蛰), Spring Equinox(春分), Qingming(清明), Grain Rain(谷雨), Start of Summer(立夏), Grain Buds(小满), Grain in Ear(芒种), Summer Solstice(夏至), Minor Heat(小暑), Major Heat(大暑)Start of Autumn(立秋), End of Heat(处暑), White Dew(白露), Autumn Equinox(秋分), Cold Dew(寒露), Frost’s Descent(霜降), Start of Winter(立冬), Minor Snow(小雪), Major Snow(大雪)，Winter Solstice(冬至)，Minor Cold(小寒), and Major Cold(大寒).
It started in the Spring and Autumn Period(770--476 BC) and began properly during the Qin(221--206 BC)and Han(206BC--220) dynasties. Today, people still use the calendar to prepare their bodies for changes in climate, too. When it is time for Major Snow, many drink hot soup with ginger and Chinese dates(枣)to fight the cold and eat oranges to prevent coughing.
“Making up a traditional knowledge system that has enjoyed thousands of years to use, the 24 solar terms clearly show the ideas of respect for nature and harmony between man and nature, ” Zhang Ling, an official at the Ministry of Culture, told Xinhua.
25. The author mentions dumplings and ginger soup to . A show interest in Chinese food and culture B describe how these two types of food are made
C show the influence of solar terms on the Chinese way of living D show how much wisdom our ancestors had in inventing these foods
26. According to the article, the solar terms are born out of people’s understanding of . A the changes between the four seasons B normal agricultural activities
C the sun’s movement and its influence on the climate D the living habits of ordinary animals and plants
27. Which of the following solar terms has the closest connection to the season of spring? A Awakening of Insects B Frost’s Descent C Grain in Ear D Minor Heat
28. From Zhang Ling’s point of view, .
A solar systems show how important it is for Chinese people to keep old traditions B solar terms show ancient wisdom about environmental protection C solar terms are the natural results of the Chinese way of thinking D solar terms prove that modern people should have a slower pace of life

Your house may have an effect on your figure . Experts say the way you design your home could play a role in whether you pack on the pounds or keep them off . You can make your environment work for you instead of against you . Here are some ways to turn your home into part of diet plan.
Open the curtains and turn up the lights . Dark environments are more likely to encourage overeating , for people are often less self-conscious（难为情）when they’re in poorly lit places and so more likely to eat lots of food . If your home doesn’t have enough window light , get more lamps and flood the place with brightness.
Mind the colors . Research suggests warm colors fuel our appetites . In one study , people who ate meals in a blue room consumed 33 percent less than those in a yellow or red room. Warm colors like yellow make food appear more appetizing, while cold colors make us feel less hungry. So when it’s time to repaint, go blue.
Don’t forget the clock or the radio. People who eat slowly tend to consume about 70 fewer calories
（卡路里） per meal than those who rush through their meals. Begin keeping track of the time, and try to make dinner last at least 30 minutes, And while you’re at it, actually sit down to eat. If you need some help slowing down , turn on relaxing music. It makes you less likely to rush through a meal.
Downsize the dishes, Big serving bowls and plates can easily make us fat. We eat about 22 percent more
when using a 12-inch plate instead of a 10-inch plate. When we choose a large spoon over a smaller one ,total intake（摄入） jumps by 14 percent. And we’ll pour about 30 percent more liquid into a short, wide glass than a tall, skinny glass.
