Liu Hui , 17 , is worried about visiting her father’s hometown in Jiangxi during the Spring Festival . “ It’s really cold there , ” she said . Liu grew up in Beijing . In

Beijing , almost every home has central heating（集中供暖）, but Jiangxi doesn’t have that service .

This is because of a government decision made in the 1950s . The government drew a line on the map of China . It divides China into northern and southern areas . And it also decides who gets central heating and who doesn’t . If there are more than 90 days with very low temperature , then the government will provide central heating . So people in the south don’t have central heating . Instead , they have to use private heating tools to keep warm in the winter .

Although the temperatures in the south may be higher , the winter is hard for people , too . In recent years , more and more people are asking for central heating in the south . Many private heating tools are not useful , said professor Liu Jiming at Guizhou University .

However , the voice against the idea is strong , too . One the one hand , according to many experts , China’s heating systems depend heavily on coal（煤）. And coal-fired central heating often leads to smog（雾霾）. On the other hand , some other people say heating the south will cost too much money . There are no basic facilities（设备）for heating systems in most southem cities , so people have to build a new heating network . 58. Liu Hui is worried about __________ during the Spring Festival . A. visiting her father’s hometown B. visiting Xinjiang

C. staying in Beijing D. having no private heating tools 59. Northern areas get central heating because __________ . A. the people there are richer than people in the south B. the winter in the south is much colder

C. the number of days with very low temperature is more than 90 D. people in the south have private heating tools

60. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage ? A. The winter in the south is not cold at all . B. Not all the people agree to heat the south .

C. People in the south think the private heating tools are very useful . D. There are basic facilities for heating systems in most southern cities . 61. What’s the main idea of the passage ? A. The northern areas are really cold . B. The advantages of heating the south .

C. The reason why the northern areas get central heating . D. Whether we should heat the south or not .

The Internet plays an important part in our lives . We use it for work and fun . We can find new books , and interesting movies on the Internet or advice on staying healthy . We can even use it to learn a new language .

However , some researchers say using the Internet too much might be bad for our health . A new study finds that heavy Internet use may be connected with high blood pressure in teenagers . If the teens spend at least 14 hours a week online , they may get high blood pressure easily .

Dr. Michigan from the Henry Ford Hospital did the study . It included 335 young people , from 14 to 17 years old . The study showed that 134 of the teens were “ heavy Internet

users . ” They were online on average（平均）25 hours a week . Researchers found that 26 of them had high blood pressure . The researchers say the study is the first to connect heavy web use with high blood pressure . Other research has connected heavy Internet use with health problems including anxiety , depression and obesity .

Although it’s bad to use the Internet too much , we can’t go back to an Internet-free life . So it’s important to do something to limit the use of internet , Here are some suggestions . First , it is important for teens to take “ regular breaks from their computers or smartphones ” and to do some exercise . Second , Children aren’t supposed to go online for more than two hours a day , five days a week , but they may not be able to control themselves well . So parents shouldn’t allow their children’s to use the Internet too much . 62. In our lives , we CAN’T use the Internet to __________ .

A. do some work and have fun B. find advice on keeping healthy C. check our blood pressure D. learn a new language 63. __________ may get high blood pressure . A. Teenagers who stay up late

D. Teenagers who do too much exercise

On Dec. 7 2015 , the smog（雾霾）was so serious that Beijing gave the public a red alert（警报）. It was the first time for Beijing to give a red alert . And the alert lasted from 7 a.m. Tuesday until noon on Thursday . Heavy smog had a great influence on the northern areas of China . And the lives of people in the north were in trouble . Facing such serious air pollution , the government took action immediately .

First of all , primary and middle schools were advised to put off classes . Many students were happy to have a day off while a few students chose to attend class . “ Although the air is poor , I prefer to go to school rather than stay at home . ” said Li Yue , a fifth-grade student in western Beijing . So some teachers still went to school to give lessons to these students .

Besides , certain cars were not allowed to be on the road on particular days . And the government encouraged people to use public transportation . But how can the public transportation manage extra（额外的）passengers ? To solve the problem , the government added more than 840 buses and 53 subway trains .

Finally , all the heavy industries were asked to cut down their productions .
