A recently study found people’s lives are made shorter in North China．It shows the life expectancy (平均寿命) has been cut down by 5．5 years there．Researchers think that the heavy air pollution in China should be to blame (承担责任)．It’s really the truth．Our government has already done something．However，it doesn’t seem to work so well．

“Air pollution in China is doing harm to people’s health．The harm i s much more serious than we can imagine，”said Chen Yuyu of Beijing University，one of researchers of this study．

Dirty air brings serious problems in North China．In January this year，the air pollution was worse than that in other places．That was caused by rising temperature and waste gas from coal heating．

Chinese government should strongly fight against air pollution．They should think of more proper ways to deal with the problem．People should be encouraged to take buses，ride bicycles or walk，instead of driving cars．The factories that pollute heavily should be closed．

“We need to improve our environment，although it might be expensive．Protecting our environment means protecting ourselves，” Li Hongbin，another researcher of the study said． ( )26．The passage above may come from a(n) ．

Why are your study habits different from your friends? Why do you seem to learn faster in some classes while more slowly in others? One reason you may not know is that people have different types．Scientists say there are three different learning types：Visual (视觉型)，Auditory (听觉型)，and Kinesthetic (动觉型)．

Visual learners learn best by seeing．If you seem to easily remember information from pictures，graphs (图表)，and videos，you are probably a visual learner．You’re not good at copying down what the teacher says in class．Never mind．You can draw graphs or pictures instead，if you find that works better for you． Auditory learners learn best by hearing．If you seem to easily remember things by hearing them，then you are probably an auditory learner．You must listen carefully while the teacher is speaking because it’s the easiest way for you to learn．Sometimes you may find that taking notes stops you from listening carefully．After class，you can write down what you remember or borrow your friend’s notes to copy．

Kinesthetic learners learn best by doing．If you seem to learn best by working with your hands，you are probably a kinesthetic learner．Taking notes by writing can make you pay close attention to information as you receive it．Of course，you can learn best by making full use of labs or other class activities． Hope you learn better by knowing what your personal learning type is． ( )29．There are different learning types according t o the passage． A．two B．three C．four D．five

Everybody in this world is different from one another．But do you know that understanding differences can help you better manage your money?

As we grow up，we gradually (渐渐地) develop a set of our own values or beliefs．These are influenced by society，our family，the education we receive and so on．Once this value system is set up，it’s not easy to change later in life．Financial experts (财务专家) say that everyone a1os has their own belief of how to manage their finances．This is the part of our value system and it has a great influence on the way we look after our money．According to our different values，experts put us in three categories (类别)．They are：the ant，the cricket (蟋蟀) and the snai l(蜗牛)． The ant—work first

Just like ants who work heart and soul in summer in order to store food for winter，these people don’t care about enjoying the moment．They work very hard and save money
