As an old saying in China goes, “The days of the Sanjiu period are the coldest days.” “Sanjiu
period” , which is in Minor Cold, refers to the third nine-day period (the l9th to the 27th day) after
the day of the Winter Solstice(冬至). There are many different customs related to Minor Cold in
China.
Eating hotpot
During Minor Cold people should eat some hot food to benefit the body and defend against
the cold weather. Winter is the best time to have hotpot and braised mutton with soy sauce. But it
is important to notice that too much spicy food may cause health problems.
Eating huangyacai
In Tianjin, there is a custom to have huangyacai, a kind of Chinese cabbage, during Minor
Cold. There are large amounts of vitamins A and B in huangyacai. As huangyacai is fresh and
tender, it is fit for frying, roasting and braising.
Eating glutinous rice (糯米饭)
According to tradition, the Cantonese eat glutinous rice in the morning during Minor Cold.
Cantonese people add some fried preserved pork, sausages and peanuts and mix them into the rice.
Eating vegetable rice
In ancient times, people in Nanjing took Minor Cold quite seriously, but as time went by, the
celebration of Minor Cold gradually disappeared. However, the custom of eating vegetable rice is
still followed today. The rice is steamed and is unspeakably delicious. Among the ingredients (原
料), aijiaohuang (a kind of green vegetable), sausages and salted duck are the specialties in
Nanjing.

If you’re reading this, you were probably born in the 2000s. The ohohs. The 21st century.
That would make you young, creative, connected, global, and no doubt smart. Maybe good-
looking, too. Right? But what do other people think about your generation?
Some adults worry that you’re more interested in the screen in front of you than the world
around you. They think of you as the “facedown generation” because you use your phone so much
and they wonder how you will deal with school, friends, and family. Are today’s teenagers too
busy texting and taking selfies to become successful in real life — or “IRL”, as you would say?
Other adults worry that today’s youth are spoilt (宠坏的) and don’t want to face the
challenges of adult life. Many children born in the 1990s and 2000s were raised by “helicopter
parents”. They were always there to guide and help them with a busy schedule filled with
homework and extracurricular activities such as dancing, drawing, or sports. With parents who do
everything for them, today’s youth seem to prefer to live like teenagers even when they are in their
20s or 30s.
Does the facedown generation need a headsup? Well, probably not. The fact is that many of
today’s teenagers are better educated and more creative than past generations. They also seem to
be enthusiastic (热情的) and willing to become leaders. More young people than ever volunteer to
help their communities. There are also brave young people such as Malala Yousafzai, the teenager
who won the 2014 Nobel Peace Prize for pushing girls’rights to go to school.
So if you’re one of the ohohs, there’s reason to be hopeful about the future. Things are
looking up for the facedown generation. Chances are that you will do GR8 (great) and LOL (laugh
out loud).
5. What can we learn about the ohohs ?
A. They are addicted to screens.
B. They are always in bad mood.
C. They were born before the 2000s.
D. They are busy with their texts.
6. Which of the following is true about “helicopter parents”?
A. They travel by air all year round.
B. They instruct everything for their children.
C. They depend on their teenagers.
D. They avoid challenges of adult life.
7. What qualities does the ohohs have in para 5 ?
A. Proud. B. Awkward.
C. Passionate. D. Peaceful.
8. Which of the following is the best title for the text?
A. Facedown Generation
B. Promising Generation
C. Struggling Teenagers
D. Generation Under Control
C
In 1916, two girls of wealthy families, best friends from Auburn, N. Y. — Dorothy Woodruff
and Rosamond Underwood — traveled to a settlement in the Rocky Mountains to teach in a one-
room schoolhouse. The girls had gone to Smith College. They wore expensive clothes. So for
them to move to Elkhead, Colo. to instruct the children whose shoes were held together with string
was a surprise. Their stay in Elkhead is the subject of Nothing Daunted: The Unexpected
Education of Two Society Girls in the West by Dorothy Wickenden, who is a magazine editor and
Dorothy Woodruff’s granddaughter.
Why did they go then? Well, they wanted to do something useful. Soon, however, they
realized what they had undertaken.
They moved in with a local family, the Harrisons, and, like them, had little privacy, rare
baths, and a blanket of snow on their quilt when they woke up in the morning. Some mornings,
Rosamond and Dorothy would arrive at the schoolhouse to find the children weeping from the
cold. In spring, the snow was replaced by mud over ice.
In Wickenden’s book, she expanded on the history of the West and also on feminism, which
of course influenced the girls’ decision to go to Elkhead. A hair-raising section concerns the
building of the railroads, which entailed (牵涉) drilling through the Rockies, often in blinding
snowstorms. The book ends with Rosamond and Dorothy’s return to Auburn.
Wickenden is a very good storyteller. The sweep of the land and the stoicism (坚忍) of the
people move her to some beautiful writing. Here is a picture of Dorothy Woodruff, on her horse,
looking down from a hill top: “When the sun slipped behind the mountains, it shed a rosy glow all
around them. Then a full moon rose. The snow was marked only by small animals: foxes, coyotes,
mice, and varying hares, which turned white in the winter.”
9 Why did Dorothy and Rosamond go to the Rocky Mountains?
A. To teach in a school. B. To study American history.
C. To write a book. D. To do sightseeing.
10. What can we learn about the girls from paragraph 3?
A. They enjoyed much respect. B. They had a room with a bathtub.
C. They lived with the local kids. D. They suffered severe hardships.
11. Which part of Wickenden’s writing is hair-raising?
A. The extreme climate of Auburn. B. The living conditions in Elkhead.
C. The railroad building in the Rockies. D. The natural beauty of the West.
