What would you give up to protect the environment? Many people have given up animal products of all kinds. They are practicing a lifestyle called veganism（純素主義）. Some people choose to become vegan(素食主義者）because they are upset about the way humans treat animals.

For many people, veganism simply means eating no meat, cheese or eggs. But the idea of saving animals also appears in the fashion and manufacturing industries (制造業(yè)）.

For example, leather（皮革）is used in many products, such as shoes and clothes. Every year more than a billion animals, listing from horses to snakes, are killed so that we can use their skin to make leather products. Now, many brands are looking for other ways to make their products.

The sports brand Puma, for example, has made shoes out of pineapple(菠蘿）leaves. Tesla, the American car-maker, is reported to have stopped using leather to make its seats.

Veganism is growing in popularity. In 2017, the BBC said it was the fastest-growing lifestyle movement in the United Kingdom. At the same time, some news reported that a quarter of Americans between the ages of 25 and 34 are vegans. No wonder the map7ine named 2019 "the year of the vegan".

So, if you're interested in protecting animals and saving the environment, you might want to give veganism a try. But somebody asks: "Is veganism healthy?" Some people worry that eating no treat at all is not good for our health. It's your personal choice to be a vegan or tot. Just make sure to keep healthy as well.

Open an app, place your order, and wait for your food to be delivered（遞送）to your home-this is how many people eat in China these days. According to the latest report, 421 million Chinese people use online food delivery services. That's about half of the total number of internet users in China.

Which group of people is ordering food online the most? It's mainly young people. Meituan, a food delivery service, showed that 86.3 percent of the service's users are between 20 and 34 years old. These people, who live in small families, are driving the development of the food delivery industry. Small families depend greatly on food delivery services.

Chinese families have changed in size over the past years. In 2002, only 7.7 percent of them were single-person families. But this number increased to 15.6 percent in 2017. The two-person families rose from 18.4% in 2002 to 27.2% in 2017. For small families, cooking needs more time and materials, so ordering food online has become more popular.

The food delivery services have become much faster than before at present. According to Meituan's report, the time it takes to make a food delivery dropped from 38 minutes in 2016 to 29 minutes in 2019. Many delivery platforms(平臺）are also offering more services, delivering products such as fruit, vegetables, medicine and flowers. More and more customers are interested in the improvement of China's food delivery services. As its services continue to improve, it's possible that the food delivery industry will keep growing.

Do you get lots of reading tasks as part of your homework? You might wish that you could read faster. 1. But experts have dismissed(駁回）this announcement.

"Speed reading is not actually possible," said Elisabeth Schotter, a scientist at the University of South Florida, US. Schotter pointed out that people who say that they can teach others how to speed read are usually doing it to make money by selling courses and books.

In fact, speed reading has been advertised (做廣告）since 1959, when US educator Evelyn Wood introduced a speed reading program. Several US presidents have event asked their staff to take speed reading courses, 2.

Schotter explained that reading is a complicated(復(fù)雜的）process. It includes four stages: seeing a word, searching its meaning from your memory, connecting it with other words in the same sentence, and then moving on to the next word. 3. It can't be sped up. Some people who are able to speed read are simply skimming(略讀）4. Skimmers can find out the main idea of a passage. But they will not be able to recall all of the information.

5. Research suggests that you should try to improve your vocabulary and simply read more. Then you can improve your reading speed.

閱讀文章并根據(jù)上下文用下面適當(dāng)選項補全短文。

A.This process uses many parts of the-brain at one time.

B.Skimming needs to read a passage quickly and only look for certain words or sentences.

C.There are some people who announce that, you can learn to read at super-high speeds.

D.So is there a way to become a faster reader?

E.However, the staff found that there is no real science behind speed reading.

At the age of 16, Einstein always played with a group of crazy kids. Because he was so busy playing, he didn’t study enough and failed his final exam.

One morning, when Einstein was holding a fishing tool and was about to go fishing with his friends, his father stopped him and said seriously, “Einstein, you’re so crazy about playing that you failed your exam. I’m worried about your future.”

“What are you worrying about? Jack and Robert also failed, but don’t they still get to go fishing?”

“My boy, you can’t think like that,” his dad said. “There is a story that people tell in our hometown. Listen to it now.”

“There were two cats playing on the top of a house. One cat was careless and fell down the chimney(煙囪) while holding the other cat. When the two cats climbed out of the chimney, one of the cats had soot(煙灰) on his face, while the other cat’s face was clean. Seeing the soot-faced cat, the clean cat thought its face must be dirty, so it quickly ran to the riverside and washed its face. The soot-faced cat saw the clean-faced cat and thought its face was also clean, so it just walked down the street happily.”

“Einstein, no one can be your ‘mirror’. You have to think for yourself. If you follow others, you will never learn.”

Hearing this, Einstein laid down his fishing tool and returned to his room. He studied hard and didn’t follow others from then on. This allowed him to be successful.

So, what kind of people do you usually hang out with? Do they study a lot or do they just want to play all the time? Don’t blindly follow others.
