More and more people in China are now sharing parts of their lives with the world by videos on their phones. Some people send videos of personal events like holidays and weddings.
Using live streaming (网络直播) is particularly popular among the people aged 18 to 35. Besides leaving danmu comments (弹幕), they can also communicate directly with the hosts by buying virtual (虚拟的) gifts such as flowers, toys and cars for them online. The most recent example was the Olympic swimmer Fu Yuanhui. She did one-hour live streaming which attracted more than 11 million viewers.
What’s more, live streaming allows users to communicate with strangers and express themselves. A 19-year-old college student called Nic Li says she spends three to four hours each week chatting and singing with viewers through one app called Ingkee. “Sometimes I feel lonely and want to talk to people,” she says. “It feels nice when viewers are playing attention to me.”
However, there are worries about the misuse of live streaming. Papi Jiang promised to correct her unsuitable and impolite language after she was warned by government officials. As there are more than 80 apps and 300 websites for live streaming in China, the Internet regulator (网络监管机构) can hardly monitor the content all the time.
“We support the use of live streaming. But people should be aware of the two sides of it.” One of the officials said.

We do everything we can to hide from the sun in summer. Some wear hats, others buy umbrellas or sit under trees. But can you imagine what it would be like to have two suns over your head?
Well, the Kepler-47 system does have two stars in its sky, according to a discovery in the Science Journal.
The new system was found by NASA’s Kepler space telescope. It is about 5,000 light-years away from us. One of the stars is similar to our sun, but the other is much smaller and less than 1 percent as bright.
In fact, systems with two stars are quite common. “Unlike our sun, many stars are part of multiple-star(多个恒星的) systems. There, two or more stars circle each other,” said a scientist from NASA’s Research Center in the US.
Scientists are more surprised that there could be two planets in the Kepler-47 system because it is very hard for planets to form in such a complex environment. One of the planets, Kepler-47b, is closer to the stars. It’s three times larger than Earth. The other one, Kepler-47c, is about 4.5 times the size of Earth. Most importantly, Kepler-47c is neither too close nor too far away from the stars. It means the planet won’t be too hot or cold. So scientists believe there could be water on it or even life.
36. Which of the ways is NOT mentioned in the passage for people to hide from the sun? A. Wearing hats
B. Wearing sunglasses C. Buying umbrellas

What does the word “complex” in Paragraph 5 mean? A. 不寻常的

C. 艰难的
D. 困惑的
39. Which is TRUE about the planets in the Kepler-47 system? A. Kepler-47c is neither too hot nor too cold. B. Kepler-47c is proved to be suitable for lives. C. Kepler-47b is 4.5 times as large as the Earth.

It is said that the eyes are “the windows of our soul”. Beautiful and bright eyes not only show a good health but also make you look very attractive. However, to have healthy eyes you have to look after them properly. Your eyes need taking good care of.
Be careful with your diet. First, eat food that is good for your eyes. They are fresh fruits and vegetables as fish, eggs, and milk. Besides, a regular amount of vitamins A and B2 should also be taken.
A regular and sound sleep is a must. It relaxes your eyes and gives them enough rest. Sleep not only helps repair the tired body. Usually, you must sleep for at least seven to eight hours every day. Loss of sleep can give you dark circles under the eye.
You must exercise your eyes every day. Blink(眨眼) your eyes at regular periods, which makes the eyeballs full of water and gives them a good wash.
We use our eyes in many wrong ways. Fox example, if a small thing goes into our eye we start rubbing it, which is wrong. Rubbing can hurt your eyes. Don’t read or write in poor or bright sunlight. Always use sunglasses as sunlight can cause eye tiredness. Light should not shine
