First launched in 2010 by China's e-commerce giant Jingdong,the 618 shopping event has developed into a major mid-year shopping event that has driven online consumer spending over the decade.However,consumers are becoming more cautious during a pandemic-hit economic downturn and growing tired of more frequent shopping events stimulation over the past decade.
   The event was originally created as a competition for the Alibaba-backed Singles' Day shopping event (on November 11).And similar to Singles' Day,the 618 shopping festival has grown out of its founding platform and become a promotional event across all major Chinese e-commerce platforms.The event is also considered a barometer (指標(biāo)) for consumer spending capacity and new shopping trends in China.For those who are taking a close look at the country's second-largest shopping carnival,this year's edition of 618 might seem like 2020's all over again,yet if anything the situation is even more serious.
   In both years,China was just coming out of lockdowns which had taken a toll on the country's economy and led to negative consumer consumption concept.But the timing is different.In 2020,COVID-19 broke out in January and most pandemic-related lockdowns were removed in early April.By the time 618 arrived in June,the state had already stepped in to boost consumption by launching a series of digital subsidy programs over April and May.On top of that,the two-month gap allowed more time for manufacturing and logistics (物流) companies to recover from the lockdowns ahead of the shopping festival.
   This year,however,there's less time for the market – either consumer consumption concept,merchants (商人),or logistics companies – to react since the months-long lockdowns to control new COVID-19 outbreaks in cities like Beijing and Shanghai only ended on June 1,just as many retailers were preparing for the 618 shopping festival with pre-promotion and early deals.Moreover,recent trends make it obvious that Chinese consumers will be even more cautious in 2022 than they were near the start of the pandemic.

  • 1.Most of us spend our lives seeking the natural world.We go fishing,sit in the garden,have a picnic,live in the suburbs or go to the seaside.The most popular leisure activity in Britain is going for a walk.When joggers jog,they don't run on the streets.Every one of them tends to go to the park or the river.
       But despite this,our children are growing up naturedeprived(剝奪).I spent my boyhood climbing trees.These days,children are robbed of the ancient freedom,due to problems like crime,traffic,the loss of the open space and strange new ideas about what is best for children,that is to say,things that can be bought,rather than things that can be found.
       The truth is to be found elsewhere.A study in the US:families had moved to better housing and the children were assessed for ADHD—Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder(注意力缺陷多動癥).Those whose accommodation had more natural views showed an improvement of 19%;those who had the same improvement in material surroundings but no nice view improved just 4%.
       ADHD is one of the great problems of modern childhood.One study after another indicates that contact with nature gives huge benefits to ADHD children.However,we spend money on drugs rather than on green places.
       The life of old people is measurably better when they have access to nature.The increasing concern for the growing population of old people is in quality rather than quantity of years.And study after study finds that a garden is the single most important thing in finding that quality.Even problems with crime and aggressive behaviour are reduced when there is contact with the natural world.
       We need the wild world.It is essential to our wellbeing,our health and our happiness.

    B.Children's performance at school is greatly improved.
    C.Problems with crime and violent behavior will easily be solved.
    D.A garden nearby improves the quality of old people's life.

  • 2.It is widely believed that biodiversity(生物多樣性)is promoted to save species.But in reality species exist only as part of ecosystems and cannot survive unless their ecosystems are protected along with as much as possible of the diversity they contain.
       Protecting habitats(棲息地)is important for keeping biodiversity.In 2003,over 102,000 habitats covering nearly 19 million square kilometres,or 11.5% of the world's land surface,were under some form of protection.Though this is a great improvement since 1962,when just 1,000 protected habitats were listed,it is still not considered enough to stop the ecocide that is endangering the world's biodiversity.
       For a number of environmentalist,protecting the world's 25 biodiversity hotspots(熱點地區(qū))is critical to saving habitats and species.But many hotspots are endangered already,having lost up to three-quarters of their original plants.
       The poor state of most biodiversity hotspots results directly from population growth and migration(遷移) into these areas.A study found that by the mid-1990s around 1.1 billion people lived in these hotspots.Moreover,the annual population growth rate in these areas was 1.8%,higher than the global average of 1.4%.The PAI report concluded that human-related environmental changes will continue to put pressure on hotspots.Therefore,keeping biodiversity requires paying close attention to population size.
       Protecting hotspots is not simply a matter of putting up fences and employing guards.The best results are achieved when local people are educated about the value of wildlife,and actually gain a share of the benefits from eco-tourism.Only then do they have a chance to see the benefits of protecting hotpots.

    (1)What can we infer from paragraph 1?

    A.The loss of any species can affect humans.
    B.Endangered species are paid more attention to by humans.
    C.Species can still survive when their ecosystems are destroyed.
    D.Ecosystem protection is as important as diversity protection.
    (2)What does the underlined word "ecocide" in paragraph 2 mean?

    A.Ecosystem protection.
    B.Reduction of the number of species.
    C.Serious damage to habitats.
    D.Habitats protection.
    (3)What's the direct cause of the terrible state of the hotspots?

    A.Population growth in hotpots.
    B.Migration out of these areas.
    C.Global warming.
    D.The global average population growth rate.
    (4)What's the author's opinion on protecting the hotspots?

    A.It's simple to carry out.
    B.It leads to the increase of tourists.
    C.It's closely connected with local people.
    D.It suggests that the local people are well educated.

       Many students say they need to be in the US for more than attending cljye.ais.As a PhD student,the library is an extremely important resource for them,although it is because of COVED that those services have been closed,which means even this advantage is gone.

       International students staving in the United States say the new ruling has disturbed their plans to return. "I know it is a fact that when it comes to rules,guidelines,laws and stuff like that,international students are sort of treated as low-level citizens.Even I can't even use the word "citizen" to begin with because that's what they make clear we are not."
       The government said that the policy speaks for itself and that online coursework is not worth a visa.So far,not any sign of change has been within sight.As students are waiting for the policy to improve,their fall programming and their future remain in limbo.
