Despite the lack of new releases due to the outbreak of COVID-19, there was no shortage of good

films in 2020. We've rounded out the top 4 films. Check them out!

Soul

In the first Pixar cartoon to have an African-American lead character, Jamie Foxx provides the voice

of a music teacher who dreams of making it as a jazz pianist. But just after a successful interview, he falls

down a manhole and finds himself in a soul world where human spirits are assigned their personalities. And

things get even stranger from there.

Nomadland

When Fern loses her husband and can't afford to live in a house, she packs her few belongings into a

camper and drives off into the Nevada desert. She encounters a large community of senior citizens who

have also been forced to live on the road, supporting themselves with short-term jobs along the way. What

makes Nomadland unique is that while Fern is played by an Oscar-winning actress, nearly all she meets are

real people who relate their own experiences. Written and directed by Chloe Zhao, the film is a

combination of documentary and fiction.

The Croods: A New Age

The prehistoric family from 2013,s hugely enjoyable cartoon, The Croods, directed by Joel Crawford,

makes a welcome return, so we can expect more crazy adventures and unusual animals. In the much-

delayed sequel （续集），they meet another family, the Bettermans, whose advanced lifestyle and

technology make the Croods look even more primitive than they did already. There's conflict but they learn

to appreciate each other's differences.

Wolfwalkers

The year's finest cartoon film comes from Cartoon Saloon, an Irish studio specialising in stylised

hand-drawn 2D art. Its latest production is set in the mid-17th Century, when English soldiers are trying to

occupy the wild woods. One hunter's daughter meets with a girl wolfwalker and they make joint efforts to

rescue the forest. It's a heartwarming story of friendship and an inspiring adventure about two girls finding

themselves. Wolfwalkers stands proud as a new classic.

A. A pianist's dream coming true.

B. A musician's romantic journeys.

C. A music teacher's unusual experiences.

Most teenagers are still trying to find their passion and purposes in life. However, not Gitanjali Rao.

The 15-year-old girl has been coming up with innovative solutions to worldwide problems since she was

ten. It is, therefore, not surprising that the teenager has won the honor of “America's Top Young Scientist”.

In the third grade, Rao was inspired to build a device after witnessing the shocking story unfold in

Flint, Michigan, where cost-cutting measures led to the use of a polluted river as the city's primary water

supply and incredibly high levels of lead made their way into people's drinking water.

After two months' research, Rao designed a small and portable device that used sensors to instantly

detect lead in water. Called Tethys, after the Greek Goddess （女神） of freshwater, it attaches to a

cellphone and informs the residents via an app if their drinking water contains lead. The design earned her

the 3M Young Scientist Challenge in 2017. She is currently working with scientists and medical

professionals to test Tethys' potential and hopes the device will be ready for commercial use by 2022.

Later, Rao took on another social issue - drug addiction. Her app, called Epione, which won the Health

Pillar Prize at the TCS Ignite Innovation Student Challenge in May 2019, is designed to catch drug

addiction in young adults before it's too late.

More recently, the teenager has developed an app named Kindly, which uses artificial intelligence

technology to detect possible signs of cyberbullying （网上欺凌）.When users type in a word or phrase.

Kindly is able to pick it up if it's bullying, and then it gives the option to edit it or send it the way it is. It

gives them the chance to rethink what they are saying so that they know what to do next time.

All kinds of awesome, Gitanjali Rao has been selected from 5,000 equally impressive nominees （被

提名人）for TIME Magazine's first-ever "Kid of the Year”.

4. What gave Rao the idea of inventing the device Tethys?

A. The incident of lead pollution.

B. The issue with drug addiction.

C. The shortage of water supplies.

D. The high cost of purifying water.

5. What is Rao expecting of Tethys?

A. It'll remove metal from water.

B. It'll make it to market soon.

C. It'll win her a higher prize.

D. It'll be fitted to cellphones.

6. What will Kindly allow users to do?

A. Receive pre-warning signals of threat.

B. Input words into a computer automatically.

C. Choose from secure social networking sites.

D. Weigh their words before posting them online.

7. Which of the following can best describe Gitanjali Rao as a young scientist?

A. Ambitious and humble. B. Optimistic and adventurous.

C. Talkative and outstanding. D. Creative and productive.

One in five children starting primary school in the UK are overweight. By the time they leave school,

that figure will rise to one in three. The chance of them being overweight in adulthood, which brings a

range of associated health risks, is high, at 50-75%.

The root cause of diet-related fatness is no secret: an energy imbalance between the quantity of food

being consumed and the level of physical activity being conducted. Addressing this imbalance needs to be,

in part, a review of our diet. More fresh ingredients （原料）especially fruit and vegetables, less processed

foods and fewer additives （添加剂） are all important factors in building a balanced diet.

The Department of Health has recognized that a collective approach, rather than just individual

behavior change, is a successful way of achieving this. Universal adjustments like a blanket decrease in

sugar content influence the way we eat through the choices available to us.

Applying this approach to school kitchens makes sense. They have an important role to play in

maintaining healthy diets. Offering a school menu packed with fresh ingredients and without artificial

additives makes a direct and effective impact on what children eat at school.

It's an area the Soil Association consistently works to handle through its Food for Life program —

working with schools to transform food culture, improve food education and encourage lasting changes to

the way schools think about food. It works. In Food for Life schools, pupils are a third less likely to eat no

fruit or vegetables than those in comparison schools.

One way for schools to get involved is a Food for Life Served Here award, which means at least 75%

of dishes are prepared on site using fresh ingredients. It encourages local seasonal produce and, at silver or

gold level, requires a commitment to environmentally friendly produce. At its heart, the award is designed

to support health and enhance food understanding.

Over 50% of English primary schools have such an award already, serving around 1.7 million meals

each day to over 10,000 schools and it's a figure we'll see grow.

8. What does the underlined word “addressing" in paragraph 2 mean?

A. Tackling. B. Ignoring. C. Maintaining. D. Postponing.
