              Monday,Oct.23,marks the beginning of Shuangjiang or"Frost's Descent",the 18th of the 24 solar terms in the Chinese lunar calendar.It usually falls around October 23 and ends around November 7,making it the last term of autumn and signifying the last two weeks of the season.
              An end and a new beginning
              By the time of Shuangjiang,most of the harvesting work is already completed in northern China.Even the most cold-resistant (耐寒的)crops can no longer grow.Farmers are now able to enjoy a period of rest.
              But in the south,the harvest is still in its best time,as farmers have to take home the sweet potatoes before they are destroyed by the coming frost.
              Across the country,after a year of farming,now it is time to plow the fields and prepare the soil for next year.
              Enjoy the flaming red maple leaves(枫叶)
              Autumn might be the most colorful season in China with the leaves turning from golden yellow to red.Activities like hiking become popular as people appreciate the bright red leaves.
              Nearly all the tourist websites list the best sites for admiring the red maple leaves during this time,and many cities start to offer official routes for the most picturesque views of the leaves.
              Appreciating in the view is an old tradition starting in ancient times.Du Mu,a well-known poet from the Tang Dynasty (618-907)depicted the mountainous scenery in a poem:"I stopped the coach as charmed by the maple woods; Frosted autumn leaves outshine February flowers in redness."
              Best time to adjust to a nourishing lifestyle
              It is said that Shuangjiang is the best time to adjust to a nourishing(营养的) life,which reflects the belief that this is an important time to focus on health."Keeping warm"becomes a top priority(优先考虑).
              Persimmon is the favored fruit in many areas.Chinese believe that permission could not only keep off the coldness,but also strengthen the muscles and bones.Other fruits,include apples and bananas are believed to help supply the necessary nutrition for the human body.

              On a hot evening in September 2016,the Eagles was threatening to win its first game of the season."I was really excited,"said one team member Peter."This was the game we'd been looking forward to as we were going to play against the best opponent(对手)Lions."
              With only seconds left in the fourth quarter and the Lions up 29-28,all the Eagles were quite nervous and they decided to go one yard for a touchdown(触地得分)to grab a dramatic come-from-behind victory.However,they gave the game away.
              Just after the Eagles quarterback(四分卫)David had connected with the receiver Mike at the three-yard line,a Lions defender suddenly delivered a fierce hit,knocking them both to the ground.
              "There was a huge force,as if a truck had hit me,"said Mike,who suffered great pain from the hit.But it was the Lions'player who got the worst of it.He lay on the ground and couldn't move a bit.The trainers and coaches ran to his side.Five minutes later,he still couldn't move.Game officials said that the poor teen had lost all feelings on his left side and an ambulance had been called."I was really scared at that time,"said Mike.
              The doctors then arrived,and soon after,a call to a medical transport helicopter was made.That's when the Lions'coach walked across the filed and told the Eagles'coach Jay that his players were too upset to continue the game and they would give up.Jay then gathered his team members and told them it was time to support their opponent."It was the right thing to do,"said Jay."In life,the well-being of others is what's important,not the scoreboard."All the Eagles agreed.
              After the injured player was sent to a hospital,the two teams took the field again.With the end zone and the Eagles'first victory extremely close,the team's center snapped the ball(开球),the quarterback and his teammates took a knee,and the game clock hit zero.Game over.
              The injured player now is out of the hospital and recovering,which is a relief to the Eagles,who have never regretted their decision."What my players did was amazing,"said Jay."I was surprised and encouraged that they were thinking not about themselves but about others."

              Papa's jaw dropped when Mama told him that Sister had cheated on her final exams-not to succeed but to fail."It's unbelievable!"he said."Sister has always been so proud of her good grades!"
              "Yes,she has,"said Mama."But it's not unbelievable.It just shows how badly she wanted off the swimming team."
              "Wanted off the swimming team?"said Papa."She never said anything about that to me."
              "Of course she didn't,"said Mama."She was afraid you'd blow your top.You already had her getting a swimming scholarship to college and winning gold medals at the Olympics.Can you imagine how much pressure she must have felt?For her,being on the team couldn't have been much fun."

              Papa put his head in his hands.
              "She must be really mad at me,"he mumbled."Maybe I should say sorry to her."
              Sister's footsteps could be heard on the stairs.She came into the kitchen and looked hopefully up at her parents.
              "Honey,"said Mama with a smile,"your papa and I have decided that there's no reason for you to be on the swimming team if you don't want to."
              Sister's face lit up like a Christmas tree."Yippee!"she cried.
              "And,"added Papa,"there's no need for any more drils.I'm sure you'll bring your grades back up all by yourself."
              Sister ran to Papa and jumped into his arms.She gave him a big hug."I'm going to go play cards with Lizzy!"she said."See you later!"
              From the kitchen window,Mama and Papa watched their daughter run down the sunny road toward Lizzy's house.
              "It's good to see her happy again,"said Mama.
              "It sure is,"Papa agreed."As for the swimming team,there's always next year."
              "If?"Mama prompted him.
              "Oh,right,"said Papa."If she wants to."
              Mama smiled."At least you're learning,dear,"she said.She kissed him.

              Grandparents Answer a CallAs a third-generation native of Brownsville,Texas,Mildred Garza never planned to move away.Even when her daughter and son asked her to move to San Antonio to help with their children,she politely refused.Only after a year of friendly discussion did Ms.Garza finally say yes.That was four years ago.Today all three generations regard the move as a success,giving them a closer relationship than they would have had in separate cities.
              No statistics show the number of grandparents like Garza who are moving closer to adult children and grandchildren.Yet ther is evidence suggesting that the trend is growing.Even Obama's mother-in-law,Marian Robinson,has agreed to leave Chicago and move into the White House to help care for her granddaughters.According to a study by grandparents.com,83percent of the people said Mrs.Robinson's decision will influence grandparents in the American family.Two-thirds believe more families will follow the eample of Obama's family.
              "In the 1960s we were all a little wild and couldn't get away from home far enough or fast enough to prove we could do it on our own,"says Christine Crosby,publisher of Grand,a magazine for grandparents."We now realize how important family is and how important it is to be near them,especially when you're raising children."
              Moving is not for everyone.Almost every grandparent wants to be with his or her grandchildren and is willing to make sacrifices,but sometimes it is wiser to say no and visit frequently instead.Having your grandchildren far away is hard,especially knowing your adult child is struggling,but giving up the life you know may be harder.

              (1) Wh was Garza's move a success? ______
              A. It strengthened her family ties.
              B. It improved her living conditions.
              C. It enabled her make more friends.
              D. It helped her know more new places.
              (2) What was the reaction of the public to Mrs.Robinson's decision? ______
              A. 17% expressed their support for it.
              B. Few people responded sympathetically.
              C. 83% believed it had a bad influence.
              D. Most of them thought it was a trend.
              (3) What did Crosby say about people in the 1960s? ______
              A. They were unsure of themselves.
              B. They were eager to raise more children.
              C. They wanted to live away from their parents.
              D. They had little respect for their grandparents.
              (4) What does the author suggest the grandparents do in the last paragraph? ______
              A. Make decisions in the best interests of their own.
              B. Ask their children to pay more visits to them.
              C. Sacrifice for their struggling cildren.
              D. Get to know themselves better.

              The next time you eat a piece of chocolate,be sure to enjoy it,because according to two of the world's largest chocolate maker-Mars Inc and Barry Callebaut,the treat may soon be in short supply.The problem?We are consuming the candy at a faster pace than farmers can grow cocoa.The can manufacturers say that in 2013,people consumed 70,000 tons more cocoa than was produced.Experts say that this is the worst supply-demand imbalance they have experienced m more than 50 years.
              Parts of the reason for the condition is the large reduction in supply,caused by a continuous drought in the west African countries of Ivory Coast and Ghana,where more than 70 percent of the world's cocoa is produced.Additionally,a certain disease known as frosty pod has destroyed 30 to 40 percent of global cocoa production.As a result,many farmers have turned to more profitable and easier grown crops like corn.This means that even if conditions improve,cocoa production may never get back to normal.
              Meanwhile,the world is only getting hungrier for chocolate.The biggest increase in demand is from the residents of emerging market countries like India.Though their consumption is nowhere close to the amount European devour,their newly acquired amount for the treat,is making a huge dent (凹痕) in an already tight market.
              There is also the growing desire for dark chocolate,which contains more than 70percent cocoa compared to normal chocolates.Experts believe that if consumption continue at this pace,cocoa deficits (差额) could swell to one million tons by 2020 and to an even more worrisome,two million tons,by 2030.
              Not surprisingly,cocoa prices have risen by 60% since 2012,a cost that manufacturers have offset by raising the prices of everyone's favorite candy.As the situation worsens,the price of chocolate can only rise-so be sure to enjoy piece of the sweet treat,like it is your last!

              (1) The underlined phrase"supply-demand imbalance"probably means ______ .
              A. People consume more chocolate than production
              B. Farmers grow more cocoa than people's demand
              C. More and more people like eating chocolates now
              D. Chocolates are becoming more and more expensive
              (2) It is hard to raise cocoa production probably because ______ .
              A. The weather is changeable in the west Africa
              B. A certain disease spread around the world
              C. Many farmers don't grow any longer
              D. It is impossible for conditions to be improved
              (3) Where has the demand of chocolate been increasing greatly according to the passage? ______
              A. In Asia B. In Africa C. In Europe D. In America
              (4) According to the author's prediction,we can know that ______ .
              A. Chocolate will become cheap sooner or later
              B. The farmers will produce more cocoa in 2030
              C. The price of chocolate will be going up all the way
              D. Dark chocolate will be more popular than common one.

              Next morning,there was no wind and we were half a mile from the eastern coast of the island.Although the sun shone bright and hot,I hated the thought of Treasure Island,afraid of what would happen there.
              Guns were given to all the honest men.Hunter,Joyce,and Redruth were told what was happening,and were less surprised than we expected them to be.Then the captain went on deck to talk to the crew.
              They all became happier at once.I think they thought they would find the treasure lying around on the beach!After some talk,six men stayed on board,and the others,with Silver,got into the small boats.
              I then had the first of the mad ideas that helped to save our lives.If six men were left,we could not take control of the ship; and because only six were left,the captain's men did not need my help.So I quickly went over the ship's side and into the nearest boat.
              No one took much notice of me,only one man saying,"Is that you,Jim?"But Silver called from the other boat,wanting to know if it was me.Then I began to worry if I had done the right thing.
              The crews rowed to the beach and our boat arrived first.I ran towards the trees.Silver and the rest were a hundred metres behind,and I heard him shouting,"Jim,Jim!"But I took no notice,pushing through trees and bushes,and ran until I could run no longer.
              I was pleased to lose Long John and began to enjoy looking around this strange island.I crossed wet ground and came to a long,open piece of sand,then went on to a place where the trees had branches that were thick and close to the sand.
              Just then I heard distant voices,Silver's among them,and hid behind a tree.Through the leaves,I saw Long John Silver and another of the crew talking together.
              "I'm warning you because I'm your friend,Tom,"Silver was saying.
              "Silver,"said Tom."You're old and you're honest,or so men say; and you've money,too,which lots of poor seamen haven't.And you're brave.Why let yourself be led away with that kind of scoundrel?I'd rather die than-"
              Suddenly,there was a noise of distant shouting,then a long horrible scream.I had found one honest man here,and that terrible,distant scream told me of another.
              "John!"said Tom."What was that?"
              "That?"replied Silver.His eyes shone like pieces of broken glass in the sun."That'll be Alan."
              "Alan!"cried poor Tom."An honest and true seaman!John Silver,you've been a friend of mine,but for no longer.You've killed Alan,have you?Then kill me,too,if you can!"
              The brave man turned his back on Silver and began to walk back to the beach.With a shout,Silver threw his crutch through the air.It hit poor Tom between the shoulders,and he fell to the ground with a cry.

              The world is filled with smart,educated and gifted people.We meet them every day.A few days ago,my car was not running well.I pulled it into a garage and the young mechanic(技工) fixed it in just a few minutes.He knew what was wrong by simply listening to the engine sound.I was amazed.The sad truth is that great talent is not enough.
              However,most workers" live within their means":they work and they pay the bills.I suggest that young people find work for what they will learn,more than what they will earn.In my opinion,financial intelligence is important.
              When I ask the classes I teach,"How many of you can cook a better hamburger than McDonald's?"almost all the students raise their hands.I then ask,"So if most of you can cook a better hamburger,how come McDonald's makes more money than you?"The answer is obvious:McDonald's is excellent at business systems.The world is filled with talented poor people.They focus on perfecting their skills at building a better hamburger rather than the skills of selling and delivering the hamburger.
