The Best and Worst Things to Buy in March

Frozen food

Grocery store ads aren't the only places to find deals on freezer-section treats. To take

advantage of the deepest discounts, combine coupons (优惠券) from sponsoring brands, such as

Dole, Green Giant and Tyson Foods, with grocery store sales. Plus, look for printable savings on

Coupons. com and EasyHoreMeals.com. Brands participating in National Frozen Food Month

will offer more than 180, 000 coupons that make frozen food among the best things to buy in

March.

Boxed chocolates

If you desire to give a gift to a friend in March, consider chocolate. Two minor holidays in

March provide the perfect excuse: National Chocolate Caramel Day on March 19 and National

Chocolate-Covered Raisin Day on March 24. You can discover chocolate deals online as well as

in stores. Head to sites like RetailMeNot.com to find discount coupons for boxed chocolate

savings of 10 percent or more.

New cars

With the latest car models filling dealers' lots, you'll have a hard time finding discounted

models from the year before. Car dealerships are less motivated to offer steep discounts from

March through May. Instead, plan to buy your car during the fall or winter. You should also

research the auto you want at TrueCar before heading for the dealership. The site offers

information on how much the previous buyers paid for the vehicles you want.

Spring clothing

When warm weather makes you want to head outdoors, resist the urge to do so wearing the

latest fashions. You won't find March deals on swimsuits, Easter dresses or other spring items.

To find discounts on clothes of this spring, hold off until Memorial Day weekend. You can also

look for online and in-store savings at Amazon, Macy's, Saks Fifth Avenue and other retailers.

Staying connected

When Central Bucks South became one of the first Philadelphia-area high schools to close

because of the fear of novel corona-virus( 冠状病毒 ) exposure in early March, 16-year-old

sophomore Andrew Chen knew that things were not going to return to normal as quickly as

some of his peers hoped.

But still, the change from seeing his friends on the swim team during daily practices to

learning alone at home was jarring.

“I only have three years here at South, and it pains me to see one of them being wasted,”

Chen said.

The corona-virus has changed everyone’s lives, but for students, the disruption feels

particularly serious. Schools closed and graduation ceremonies were put off. Summer plans,

such as camps, are up in the air.

But right now, many students are trying to stay connected, struggling with false

information, and finding out the best ways they can help – through online method.

For Josh Harycki, 17, a senior student at the Shipley School in Philadelphia, the best way

to help was to create a “social distancing promise” for young people.

“I saw a lot of young people not paying attention,” he said. “They were … still going out,

hanging out with others. I thought that there had to be a way to reach younger people, who were

possibly not watching the news.”

Harycki started a call to action on social media and then built a website with a map that

followed and kept the locations of people who’d signed the promise. The site also shares links

to accurate sources of information like the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

Harycki knows that his peers are worried they can’t connected with their friends in the

same way, so he created the social distancing promise to strengthen that although everyone

might be physically distant, they’re still connected.

“Part of what we’re showing is that you might feel like you’re the only one taking this

seriously, but our map shows that you’re not alone,” he said.

4．What does the underlined word “jarring” in Paragraph 2 probably mean?

A．natural B．necessary C．worrying D．reasonable

5．Who does Harycki mainly want to reach?

A．Friends who are worried and bored. B．Young people not aware of the situation.

C．Younger students trying to help. D ．People taking the corona-virus

seriously．

6．What’s Harycki’s purpose in creating the “social distancing promise”?

A．To order young people to stay at home.

B．To follow those infected with the corona-virus.

C．To tell young folks of latest news about the corona-virus.

D．To show young people that they are still connected.

7．Why does the author describe Andrew Chen’s experience in the text?

A．To explain what worried students most when schools closed.

B．To show the different views of students toward the corona-virus.

C．To show how the corona-virus affected students’ lives.

D．To explain the proper reaction to the close of school.

According to the Study Abroad Trend Report for 2018, conducted by Chinese education

website Eol. cn, the number of Chinese students who study abroad to gain a bachelor’s degree

or below is rising, and the current group of Chinese overseas students is younger than those in

the past years.

Du Xiying, a Beijing-based study-abroad agent, has first-hand experience working with

this younger crop of students. “When I started this job some 10 years ago, almost all cases were

filed by college graduates trying to apply for a master's degree in the US, UK, Australia and

Canada,” said Du. “Now quite a number of my clients are high school graduates, and my

company even employed some experienced consultants to satisfy the increasing need of college-

bound Chinese students.” However, in the eyes of Du, most of them are not ready to put

themselves in a completely different context at such a young age. Although there are no

statistics available, according to Du’s observations, college-bound high school graduates from

China fall into two groups. There is a group of students from well-off families, with good grades

and excellent command of English, and there is another group who did not do very well in their

college entrance exams, so they seek to study abroad as a solution to their troubles. “In recent

years, with the financial ability of Chinese families growing with the country's development,

buying into college is very common,” said Du.

Complaints come from both destination schools in the US and parents of students. Going

abroad at a young age needs a great deal of discipline( 自律),and college students don't usually
