Ten years ago, Lu Xiaofang was one of millions of young Chinese women who left their rural homes to find work in cities. Now, the 30-year-old woman has returned to her village in Shangshui County, Henan Province. She has built a business in the village that makes shopping bags. She can live with her family, and it's easy to hire workers there. but the most important reason is that she can help the village women to get rich.

In 2011. she set up the first factory, using the sewing skills she learned while working in Jiangsu Province. She owns nine factories now and hires more than 300 young women from nearby villages.

The bags are sold to supermarkets, such as Wal-mart and Whole Foods. Profit (利润) on a shopping bag is just pennies, but a fast worker can earn 150 yuan a day, nearly 4,000 yuan a month. That's less than the pay in cities, but they enjoy living with their children and parents. That's why they want to work in the factories nearby.

For many years, young people have left the countryside because of poverty(贫穷). Now they are harvesting opportunities at home, attracting many companies to start businesses and build better lives.

"In Shangshui County, more than 110,000 people have found jobs in the ir h ometowns, and 20,000 have been lifted out of poverty in the last few years. But it's far more than making people rich. It allows villagers to stay near their family. There are fewer children and old people left behind in the countryside." said a leader of the county.

March 30th is the World Bipolar Day. Liu Tiebang, president of Shenzhen Kangning Hospital,introduced bipolar disorder (BD) to the public in an effort to raise awareness for the mental health illness.

Bipolar disorder, also called manic depression (躁郁), is a mood disorder which can cause a patient's mood to change from a very high to a very low. Manic symptoms (症状) can include increased energy, quick response, unusual talkativeness, a lack of need for sleep, high self-esteem and so on. Depressive symptoms can include less energy, loss of interest or pleasure, feeling worthless, low self-esteem and suicidal(自杀性的) thoughts.

Patients with BD are often misdiagnosed (误诊) as depression. Liu said that while someone is experiencing a manic stage, he or she may be unusually talkative, sociable and outgoing. Patients having these kinds of problems may not realize that they are ill and often do not look for medical care. On the other hand, patients experiencing depressive periods are more likely to be noticed.

"With the development of treatments and medications, the treatments for BD have become better at present," said Liu. "The medications are safer. Patients getting the right treatments at the earlier stage of BD have a higher possibility of recovery (恢复); or the mania and depression may happen again."

For patients with BD, in addition to medication, other methods such as physical treatments, psychological treatments, social support groups and crisis intervention may be useful for managing their symptoms and controlling mood changes.

 阅读下面材料, 从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。

①An energy company in Sweden has started a project to heat up the city of Västeras using large underground caves(洞穴) full of warm water — like a huge hot water bottle under the streets.

②The energy company, Mälarenergi, will use large caves that already been there and can hold almost the same amount of water as 120 Olympic- sized swimming pools. Around 40 years ago the caves were used to hold large amounts of oil, in case it was needed for fuel(燃料). However, the caves were emptied in 1985 and they haven't been used to store anything since then.

③Mälarenergi is cleaning the caves before it fills them with water, which will be heated up to 95℃ using heat from Mälarenergi's nearby power station. The thick rock holds the heat and will keep the water warm even in winter. An instrument called a heat exchange r will warm the water and will turn the heat into another liquid(液体) when it is ready to be used. This liquid will then travel into people's heater through the local heating network, which supplies warmth for 98% of the households in Västeras. The town is home to 130,000 people.

④The system should help the company to carry on providing heat for customers, even on really cold days when lots of people turn on the heating. The company hopes it will be a useful way to warm homes, with less waste, because it will be difficult for the heat to run away from underground.

⑤ In Finland, a system like this is already in use, providing 25,000 homes with heat from underground caves. Some scientists think it could be used in the UK. About a quarter of the British population live above coal mines(煤矿) that are no longer used. Over the years, lots of these man- made caves have been covered in water and the natural warmth underground has kept the water at a temperature of around 15℃. The water could be warmed up even more by using a heat machine and sent to nearby houses to heat them. This method has already been used before in England.

 阅读下列短文,从下面每小题的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。

If you go to the Gulf of Mexico, you can see there is a big hole. It is called Chicxulub Crater. Some people believe it was because of a huge asteroid(小行星) hitting this place, and the hit made dinosaurs die out millions of years ago.

This idea was first suggested in 1980. Later, scientists used special tools to find out what would happen if it was true. It showed that the asteroid could hit Earth at 40,000 miles per hour, leading to a big hole, a great tsunami(海啸), earthquakes, and the melting(融化) of tons of rock. The hit took away millions of lives around the Chicxulub Crater.

The terrible story didn't stop there. Minutes later, hot rock started to rain down, and there was deadly dirt everywhere on the ground. More animals were burnt to death. After several hours, a super- hot wind knocked down anything still standing.

In weeks, the sky was full of ash. Days became nights. This covered the sunlight for months or even years. Many plants died first. Then lots of animals died too because of food shortage, including almost all dinosaurs.

Although this idea sounds possible, the question of how dinosaurs died out remains unsolved scientifically. But as scientists discover more dinosaur fossils, we may know the truth one day.
