Passage1
Once upon a time, a man punished his 5-year-old daughter for using up the family’s expensive gold wrapping paper.Money was always not enough, and he became even more upset when on Christmas Eve，he saw that the child had pasted the gold paper to decorate a shoebox to put under the Christmas tree.The next morning the little girl，filled with excitement，brought the gift box to her father and said，“This is for you，Daddy!”
As he saw the box，the father was sorry for his earlier overreaction.But after he opened it，he found it was empty and again he was angry.“Don' t you know， young lady?”he said.“When you give someone a present there's supposed to be something inside the package! ”
The little girl looked up at him with tears running from her eyes and said，“Daddy，it 's not empty.I blew kisses into it until it was all full.”
When the father heard this，he fell on his knees and put his arm around his dear little girl.He begged her to forgive him for his unnecessary anger.An accident took the life of the child only a short time later.It is told that the father kept that little gold box by his bed for all the year of his life.Whenever he was sad or faced difficult problems he would open the box, take out an imaginary kiss, and remember the love of this beautiful child who had put it there.In a very real sense, each of us as human beings have been given an invisible golden box filled with love and kisses from our children, family, friends and God.This is the most expensive possession (财产）anyone could hold.

Passage2
Reading habits look different around the world.In India, the average person devotes 10 hours and 42 minutes to reading per week—which is five hours more than the average person spends in the US.What people choose to read also varies depending on their geographic location.Studying in Switzerland looked at in international Google search numbers to determine the most popular book genres (类型)in countries where date was available.According to search trends, American readers prefer the classics to other popular categories.Book lovers in New Zealand and Ireland are also searching for older books that tend to be taught in literature classes.In Latin America，horror and romance are the most popular genres.Scary books dominate in Mexico and Argentina, and love stories win over readers in Brazil.The two genres tie for the No.1 spot in Venezuela.Fantasy is another popular genre read around the world, coming out on top in Italy, Germany, and Poland.India, home to the world's most voracious readers, gravitates toward poetry over the other genres.No matter what your genre of choice is，reading is a great way to feel well-traveled without leaving home, but to achieve effective reading, you will need to read the following tips.

Passage3
In Denmark, parents are allowed to set up a new school if they are dissatisfied with the school in the area where they are living.Although these schools have to follow the national courses, they are allowed a lot of choice in deciding what to teach.Some of these new schools are called “small schools” because usually the number of pupils in them is only sixty, but a school has to have at least twenty-seven pupils.Cooleenbridge School in Ireland, is a small school similar to the ones in Denmark.It was set up by parents who came from Holland, Germany, Czechoslovakia, England and other parts of Ireland.They came because they wanted to live in the countryside and to grow their own food.In June 1986，they decided to start a school.They managed to get an old, disused primary-school (小学）building and started with twenty-four children aged from four to twelve.The teachers say," The important thing in school is doing，not sitting." And so the courses include yoga (瑜伽）, cooking, knitting, kite-making，music, fishing, drama (戏剧）and environmental (环境的）river studies, as well as reading, writing, math and science.

Passage4
In 2020，there were 118 million elderly people living alone in China, 29 million of whom were 80 or above.If even 10 percent of these senior citizens require eldercare services , at least 11.8 million eldercare service positions are needed.Given the above-mentioned characteristics， Chinese-style eldercare is faced with numerous challenges.First, the country must urgently establish a multilevel, multidimensional and intelligent eldercare services system.Today，most seniors in China prefer home-based care.Ninety percent of seniors take care of themselves at home.About 7 percent rely on community support, and only 3 percent live in nursing homes.At the same time, however, a gap remains between the supply and demand for eldercare with regard to the ability of seniors to pay for these services, as well as numerous disparities in the quality of nursing institutions.Due to bed shortages, for example, mid-range nursing institutions are failing to meet the needs of those who require their services.Second, the three-pillar structure of China’s pension system is out of balance.In 2020，the basic pension insurance fund, the first pillar, accounted for 70 percent of the market.Occupational pension schemes，the second pillar，accounted for nearly 30 percent of the market， and commercial insurance, the third pillar, equaled almost nothing.Third, the development of the pension industry faces both institutional and conceptual obstacles.This is manifested in a number of ways, including the ambiguous distinction between competitive and noncompetitive industries，a lack of a clear boundary between the government and the market，as well as the inability of private organizations to provide financial support and medical insurance so as to compete with public organizations.Fourth, the pension system needs to be further improved.At present, development of the second and third pillars of China 's pension system is lagging behind，and there are also concerns about the adequacy and sustainability of pension funds.
