In English, feeling "blue" means feeling sad. But in 2020, the word "blue" could mean something more positive.

The Pantone Color Institute in the US predicts color trends every year. For 2020, it has chosen "classic blue", a color that reminds people of the sky at dusk. The reason is that it brings "calmness, confidence and connection," according to Pantone. As Pantone Vice President Laurie Pressman said, "The color of classic blue makes you feel comfortable and relaxed as well as calm and confident."

Imagine that you are lying down on the ground and looking at the evening sky. It will make you feel calm and relaxed, as well as make you think on a deeper level. Pantone said that classic blue connects people everywhere as we all look up at our shared sky. "This is a color we can relate to (引起共鸣) around the world, no matter where we live. We look outside the door and we see this color," Pressman said.

Classic blue also plays into the sustainability (可持续性) movement, as it reminds us of tines when things were simpler and more comfortable.

"Like blue jeans, it's always there and you're comfortable with it," said Pressman, who referred to classic blue as a "timeless shade". If the color is never out of style, people won't throw "classic blue" things away. We can buy less and save resources.

So if you want to add some new things to your wardrobe, choose something blue to keep up with the latest trend.

（1）、According to Pantone, "classic blue" is the color of __________.

A、the sky at dusk B、light blue jeans C、sadness D、the ocean

（2）、The Pantone Color Institute chose "classic blue" as the color of 2020 because _________.

A、more people are feeling sad these days B、it is the important color of their website C、it connects with the fashion industry D、it makes people feel calm and confident

（3）、What do we know from the passage?

A、People will face fewer challenges in 2020. B、It's hard for people to feel connected with others. C、Classic blue was chosen through a worldwide survey. D、There might be many new classic blue products in 2020.

The world has many beautiful sounds. We can hear the songs of birds and the laugh of people. We can listen to the cool music and news reports. And it's all because of our ears! They bring us a world of sounds. But some people can't hear any sound at all. Some are born deaf. Others can hear well in their childhood, but too many loud sounds hurt their ears later on. Many people in China can't hear ordinary sounds clearly. A large number of them are children. Most of them are born with good hearing. But six children of every 1,000 have hearing problems when they are born. And if a child has hearing problems, he or she usually will also have some learning problems at school. A lot of things can cause hearing problems. For example, too much earwax is not good for our hearing. And noise louder than 85 decibels (分贝) can hurt our ears and make us lose our hearing for a short time or even for ever. Hearing is important for all of us. So we should do our best to give our ears special care. Don't forget to do the following:

● Try to stay away from places with too much noise. If you have to go, wear earplugs. A pair of good earplugs can cut the noise by 30 decibels. ● When swimming, remember to put earplugs into your ears to stop water from getting in.

● Never put anything sharp into your ears. If you think you have too much earwax, ask your mum or dad to help you clean it out. Keep these things in mind! Then you won't be saying “WHAT? WHAT?" when you are older.

Skin-diving(潜水) is a new sport today. This sport takes you into a wonderful new world. It is like a visit to the moon. When you are under water, it is easy for you to climb big rocks, because you are no longer heavy.
Here, under water, everything is blue and green. During the day, there is lots of light. When fish swim nearby, you can catch them with your hands.
When you have tank (罐) of air on your back, you can stay in deep of water for a long time. But you must be careful when you dive into deep water.
To catch fish is one of the most interesting parts of this sport. Besides, there are more uses for skin-diving. You can clean ships without taking them out of the water. You can get many things from the deep sea.
Now you see that skin-diving is both useful and interesting.

Some people seem to have unusual memories. Zheng Aiqiang, a "memory athlete" on TV show Super Brain, can remember 2,660 numbers in just one hour!

You would think people like him must have special brains. But according to a recent study by researchers from America and Holland, the brain structure (结构) of ordinary people and 23 of the world's leading memory athletes shows no difference.

Good memories can be trained. New research in the magazine Neuron suggests that a person will get a super memory with just six weeks of hard training.

Researchers found that a technique (技巧) called loci, invented by the ancient Greeks, can greatly help improve memory.

By using loci, you are using your imagination to improve the brain's memory networks. You can link (关联) something you need to remember with a place that you know very well. For example, to remember a list of numbers, imagine yourself walking through your house. Each thing is linked to a number. For example, zero could be the handle on the door and five could be the painting on the wall.

In one study, some ordinary people were given 20 minutes to remember 72 nouns. At the beginning, they could only remember 26 words, but when they were taught loci, they could remember 62 words.

"Not everyone can become a memory winner. But everyone using the technique can improve his memory greatly," said Boris Konrad, one of the researchers in the study.

In Xi'an, there are special sidewalks for the phubbers ( 低头族 ). Different people have different opinions on it.

Li Minyi,14,Beijing

This special walkway can keep people who are always looking at their phones safe and protect them from accidents. People might feel much freer when using this walkway, because they used to knock into someone else on a crowded one.

Huang Xi,15, Jiangsu

It just encourages people to keep looking at their phones. Just imagine if everyone only paid attention to their mobile phones while walking, walkways like this would be useless and accidents would still happen.

Chen Yecheng, 14，Hubei

Mobile phones have made a big difference in our lives. It seems that many people can't live without them. Every year, many people get injured or lose their lives because they are playing on their mobile phones while walking. So why not create a better environment for them? The special walkways can protect them from danger.

Sun Run,14，Zhejiang

Smart phones are making a difference to our lives too much. They keep us away from reality and the beauty around us. A special walkway for those is indulgence(纵容). Can't people put their phones down for a while and enjoy a beautiful day? This is what we should encourage.

Sarah got angry. "How dirty and untidy this place is!" she said to her children. "I can't work all day and then do housework all evening. I'm not doing the housework!" And so, Sarah didn't do the housework. She didn't clean. She didn't do 'the dishes. She didn't wash the clothes. Every evening she sat in the sofa and watched TV.
