24、Can you write the Chinese characters “ganga” (embarrassment) correctly? Do you know how to write characters like “gala” (the corner of walls)? If you can’t, you are not alone. “Now most people are typing into computers instead of writing on paper. We type Chinese characters mainly according to their pronunciation. The result is to recognize characters without remembering how to write them. China Youth Daily did a survey of 2,517 people, in which 90 percent said they had once forgotten how to write a common Chinese character.

Compared to adults, teenagers are better at writing Chinese characters because they spend more time learning and practicing at school. However, the influence of digital (数字的) technology cannot be left out, according to He Yu, head of a research team for Chinese teaching.

“Many students are obsessed with digital tools such as mobile phones and computers, they spent too much time on these tools. As a result, too much use of the tools will make students too lazy to think and write.” he said. Such worries have brought about a popular TV show titled Chinese Spelling Hero, which pays attention to Chinese character writing among teenagers.

In April, the Ministry of Education called for better calligraphy (书法) education in schools. Organizations like the China Calligraphy Association are also working to train more teachers in calligraphy. Interestingly, calligraphy teachers can’t always avoid the influence of modern technology. Shen Bin is a calligraphy teacher at a primary school in Beijing. She said that it’s common for teachers like her to forget certain words. “The calligraphy class is also a good chance for me to remember how to write.” she said.

26、On Nov 8, Wang Yaping, a female astronaut (宇航员) of Shenzhou XIII, became China’s first and the world’s 16th female space walker. The expected six-month journey in space has left many curious about the differences between male and female astronauts, especially in terms of performing extravehicular (舱外的) activities (EVAs). Except body challenges, female astronauts have special advantages.

Understanding between astronauts is very important for carrying out EVAs, which is based on excellent communication skills. Women are better in communication and language expression, and this helps female astronauts do extravehicular activities, according to Yang Yuguang, head of Space Transportation Committee.

Men and women are different in body size, which also gives women special advantages for spacewalks. “Their generally smaller size is an advantage, as women will be able to control their weight better and perform different kinds of tasks,” Pang told China Daily.

Women in general weigh less, eat less food, use less oxygen(氧气), and therefore require less fuel(燃料) to get into space. An astronaut must weigh between 55 kilograms and 70 kilograms to fit in the cabin (舱) of spacecraft and use less fuel, according to CGIN.

A different body shape requires a different spacesuit. A spacesuit was prepared for Wang’s extravehicular activities, which was lighter than the males’. Designers optimized the pattern of this spacesuit in the lower part area to make it more suitable for astronauts with slimmer bodies.

According to Pang, many studies have found that female astronauts are more suitable for space tasks, and have advantages over male astronauts in qualities such as attention to detail and thinking thoughtfully .

Men do better in shorter-term, goal-oriented (目标导向的) situations while women are better in longer-term habitation-type (居住类) situations, according to National Geographic.

Women’s taking part in EVAs is an important part of space tasks, and we are seeing history thanks to Wang’s bravery, according to Yang.

【1】What do we know about Wang’s extravehicular activities?

A．She is the first ever female space walker.

B．The spacesuit she wore was specially designed.

【2】What does the underlined word “optimize”in Paragraph 5 mean in this passage?

A．make something better

B．make something worse

C．make something colourful

D．make something colourless

【3】Which of the following is an advantage females have over male astronauts?

A．Females have better communication skills.

B．Female bodies are stronger and more smart.

C．Females can be used to the life in space more quickly.

D．Females deal with goal-oriented situations better than males.

【4】What’s the main idea of the article?
