“We Need Volunteers!”

A little time to spare for cats?

Across North Sheffield, there are thousands of stray cats(流浪猫). These cats need temporary(临时的)homes until they find their forever families.

Many of them are cared for by volunteers in their homes. Most of our volunteers care for one or two cats at a time. They also help find new homes for these cats. Their efforts make a great difference.

For further information, please contact us.

Xiao Li, a college student born after 1995, used to wash her hair every two days. But as the weather has got colder, she has become lazier. She bought a mist spray(免洗喷雾), which allows her to wash her hair less often.

She is not the only you Chinese who spends money because she's lazy According to a report in December by Taobao on Chinas lazy economy(经济), Chinese people spent 16 billion yuan on products and services online in 2018. The post-1995(95后)generation was the laziest as its consumption(消费)increased by 82 percent, compared with that in 2017.

The so-called lazy economy refers to a new type of consumption of products and services which are designed to save time and labour.

According to the report, many people of the post-1995 generation buy high-tech electronic devices such as floor mopping robots and automatic window cleaners, which save the trouble of doing housework. Meanwhile, take-out food delivery services are also popular among people born after 1995.

Young people are willing to spend money on such products so that they can enjoy their spare time after a busy and stressful day at work or school. Besides, they can also focus on their studies or jobs, these so-called lazy people tend to use their spare time more freely.

While the lazy economy might be convenient for young people, it might also create problems. The lazy economy is expressed in things like people buying food or other things without leaving their living places. As a result, they stay in their houses all day long, playing on computers and phones. This situation could lead to young people becoming less sociable and even developing problems of communicating with others. Young people should pay more attention to it.

The lazy economy is a choice of lifestyle. While the lazy economy saves time and labour, the saved time should be used to do valuable things.

Do You Go To Sleep In Class?

The “Acronym”, our student newspaper, reports that most students go to sleep at 1: 30 a. m. Even if that’s an exaggeration(夸张), it’s too close to the truth. Scientists say teenagers should sleep nine hours each night. But that’s hard to do.

Some even “pull all-nighters”. These are lazy students who have homework due to(到期) the next day that they haven’t done. In the morning they don’t look healthy and you can tell who has been doing it.

One of my classmates did a survey(调查) on the problem. She found that most kids pull all-nighters to finish homework, but some do it for other reasons, such as playing computer games!

Maybe our lack of sleep is because of laziness — I think I’m a lazy student — or maybe it’s because we have too much to do in American high schools.

I usually go to bed around midnight. If I stayed up past 1: 30 a. m., I wouldn’t get any work done. I’d be falling asleep at my computer. My classes begin at 7:30 a.m. I’m partly awake in my first class. By the second, I’m slightly tired and sleepy. By my third class, I’m sleepy. By midday I’m finally wide-awake. But by 3: 00 p. m., I’m slowing down again.

Most American high schools seem to have such a problem.

High school classes start at 7: 30 a. m., so students have to wake up one and a half hours before that to get ready and catch the bus. It’s believed that lack of sleep can do harm to both grades and health.

Some schools are paying attention. Classes in those schools start at 8:30 a. m.

1.What’s the problem talked about in the passage?

A.Many kids have too much homework to do.

B.Many teenagers don’t have enough sleep.

C.Many children are crazy about playing computer games.

D.Many kids are too lazy to finish their homework on time.

2.The underlined expression “pull all-nighters” most probably means ________.

A.开夜车 B.上夜班 C.睡懒觉 D.补作业

3.Which of the following is NOT a reason mentioned in the passage?

A.Laziness. B.Homework. C.Housework. D.Computer games.

4.What’s the idea suggested at the end of the passage?

A.Later start of classes. B.Less homework.

C.Going to bed early. D.Eating healthy food.
