Hangzhou is the most beautiful garden city in China. There is an old Chinese saying that goes, "Hangzhou is an earthly paradise." Marco Polo, the first westerner to visit Hangzhou in the13th century, described Hangzhou as "without doubt the finest and most splendid city in the world." It is famous for lots of local products, such as silk, umbrellas, color-glazed porcelain (瓷器) and Longjing tea, etc.

①With the development of technology over the years, people have more ways to get the news around the world. Newspaper, TV and radio news are popular among the older age groups, but many young people prefer social media (社交媒体) apps such as Instagram, TikTok or YouTube to get the latest news. A recent report shows that the number of people in the UK watching news on TikTok in 2022 is 3.9 million, up from 800,000 in 2020. And 29% of UK teenagers use Instagram to get the news.They think it is a fast way to get what they need. But are social media apps a proper news source(来源)
②For some, especially youngsters. social media apps are a great way to get news. Many people use social media apps every day, so they can quickly get the latest news on Instagram or TikTok.
③The news is also shown in a user-friendly way, such as a short and lively post of video, which makes it easier to understand. This means people. are more likely to take in more news than just reading about it.
④Social media apps can also bring you news stories that you can't find on TV or newspaper. They provide a platform for different voices. such as people's experiences during big events.
⑤However, _______▲_______. In a recent report by Ofcom, a media regulator (监管机构) from the UK, 63% of TikTok users say they often get news that is clearly false (假的). News from local newspaper or TV station is carefully checked before it comes out, but other people who post news online might not do this.
⑥Besides, smart phones make it much easier to get more news and stories online, so it seems there is no stop of reading on social media apps. Research shows that people in the UK spent 108 minutes a day on social media apps. If people get their news from a newspaper or the TV, they will get a much-needed social media break.
⑦News on social media may bring people an easy way to receive news. But it still has a long way to go before it can finally become a suitable news source. Until then, people, especially youngsters, should think twice before believing any news.
29. News on social media is_____________.

Most people ride the bus to get from point A to point B, but riders taking a new route in Hong Kong are only interested in sleeping. Ulu Travel Agency, a tour company in Hong Kong, has designed a five-hour bus journey especially for passengers to sleep as much as they want. Tickets for the first tour on Oct.16 sold out right away, The Washington Post reported.
Many people find it easy. But why According to a website, there are several possible reasons.
White noise
White noise is a kind of noise made by sounds with different frequencies(频率) together. Buses are often crowded every day with people going to and from work. Therefore, they are the perfect environment for white noise. They make continuing noises. White noise makes people feel relaxed and helps them sleep.
Rocking movement
Another popular view on why it's easy to fall asleep on buses is because of the rocking movement. "The movement of buses feels like a mother shaking a baby in her arms. It is very comfortable, "Frankie Chow, the founder of Ulu Travel Agency,told The Washington Post.
When you were a baby, you were rocked to sleep.That makes you connect the rocking movement with sleeping. Sitting on a bus gives people similar experiences. That's why you want to sleep.It's the rocking movement that induces sleep.
Long periods of inactivity
On buses, you don't move around very much. You just sit down and enjoy the scenery as the bus moves along the road. Basically, you're away from the things that keep your mind and your physical body busy. This inactivity also slows your brain activity down because there's no stimulus (刺激物)to keep it awake.
Increase in carbon dioxide
Buses often get crowded with people going to and from work. Carbon dioxide(二氧化碳) increases when there are lots of people in a small place. The thinner oxygen (氧气) slows the brain down,causing people to feel sleepy.
33. What does the underlined word "it" in paragraph 2 refer to
A.To fall asleep. B.To ride a bus.
C.To design a journey. D. To buy a ticket.
34. Which statement is right about white noise
A.It is useless for people to get to sleep.
B.It is the sound with the same frequency.
C.It is connected with the rocking movement
D.It is the continuing noise which can relax people.
35.What does the underlined word "induces"in paragraph 5 mean
A.Stops. B.Causes. C.Lowers. D.Avoids.
36.What can we learn from the passage
A.The buses for sleeping are popular.
B. When you are rocked, it's hard to fall asleep.
C.The moving scenery outside is helpful for sleep.
D.The thinner carbon dioxide inside the bus makes people sleepy.
D

"What's that!!" said the boss. "Riverside! I didn't know you had a boy there. That's an expensive school for a man with your salary(薪水)." "I know, sir.But be likes it there so much! He's a star athlete and the best boxer in the school. The boys call him Champ there.

And there's one boy here who is really great. He's a track star and boxing champ(冠军) and just tops in chemistry. The boys call him Champ. He made them stop throwing my books around.
