23、   There was a farmer in a small village. One day, he had a headache. He heard that there was a famous doctor in the nearby village, so he decided to go to visit her.

24、   When throwing away rubbish, do you know which bin it should go in? Have you ever noticed the differently-colored rubbish bins on the street?

Some of you might not be able to answer the questions. However, it’s actually quite important to know how to sort(分类) your rubbish .Not knowing how to sort rubbish can make it harder to save energy and protect the environment. If you don’t sort your rubbish .all of it will be buried(埋) together .It can take up large areas of ground that could have been used for planting trees. Shanghai is the first city to put rubbish-sorting into practice in China .Shanghai government has asked all the people who live there to sort rubbish into four groups: wet, recyclable, harmful and dry.

“Wet” rubbish is also known as “household” rubbish. It is what people produce every day after they eat or drink. “It is the thing you don’t want but pigs can eat”, Guangzhou Daily explained. Paper, metal, glass and other things that can be recused are recyclable rubbish. Harmful rubbish includes things like medicine, batteries and so on. Finally, any rubbish that is not wet, recyclable or harmful will go in the dry rubbish bin.

Many other Chinese cities, including Changsha, plan to use this method to sort their rubbish.

Now that you know this, perhaps you can do your part in protecting the environment.

25、   When you're sitting in class, have you ever drawn pictures in the margins(边缘) of your notebooks? If so, your teacher may have told you to stop 【1】 them. Many people think of doodling (涂鸦）as distraction（精神涣散) from more important things 【2】 it might be just the opposite.

Some people realize that drawing may help you remember things you hear. In 2019 researchers asked two 【3】 of people to listen to a phone message and then gave them the same task of remembering the information from it. The researchers encouraged one group to doodle, but not the 【4】 . At last, the group that doodled remembered 29 percent more.

Other people have found other uses for doodling.

Jesse Prinz, a professor who studies doodling, says it can help you think creatively. Walking away from a problem to draw might actually help you 【5】 it. When you come back, you will have a fresh idea and work out an answer more quickly.

Two years ago, an author named Sunni Brown wrote a book on doodling. Many people regard doodling 【6】 doing nothing, but 【7】 she doesn't think so. She argues that in fact, doodling is a tool that can help people think, it isn't useless at all. Through doing experiments(实验), Brown shows doodling incorporates (整合) many ways of learning. You use four ways seeing, hearing, reading or writing through doodling. The 【8】 ways you use, the better you learn. And when you doodle while you are listening to lecture(讲座), you use all four.

You might think that being good at drawing is important for doodling. But if doodling is to help you think, it doesn't matter what the picture looks like. So next time you need help to focus, pick up pen and doodle away.
