Liang Zhenqing, an 83-year-old agronomist (农艺师), has a lot of knowledge about farming. Instead of keeping it to himself, he decided to tell people some things about it. In January 2023, he started live streams (直播) on the Internet. He talked about different farming skills by using a phone, a blackboard and a piece of chalk.
At first, only a few people watched his live streams. Liang was upset, but his family encouraged him to keep on. Slowly, more and more people started to watch his live streams. In less than a year, he got nearly 30, 000 fans!
Liang faced some difficulties along the way and his family always helped him. Sometimes, he didn’t know what to do when there was something wrong with his camera. But with the help of his family, he learned how to mend it. When his family learned some of his fans couldn’t understand his dialect (方言), they even bought a blackboard for him to write on.
Huang Yifei, one of Liang’s biggest fans, studied horticulture (园艺) and learned a lot from Liang’s live streams. She often asked him questions, and he always gave answers. She said, “Mr. Liang is the reason why I want to keep working in this field.”
Not only does Liang teach online, but he also helps people with their real-life problems. For 27 years after retiring (退休), he has taught thousands of farmers about farming skills. He even helps disabled people learn how to make a living by farming.
Liang believes that age can never stop him from doing what he loves. He used to work on growing crops in fields, but now he is enjoying planting thoughts and ideas in people on screens. With his knowledge and experience, he wants to make a difference to the people and the land.
36. When did Liang Zhenqing start live streams on the Internet
A. In January 2022. B. In January 2023.
C. In December 2024. D. In December 2023.
37. Why was Liang upset at first
A. Because only a few people watched his live streams.
B. Because there was something wrong with his camera.

Do you pay with paper money, credit (信用的) cards, or your phone when you go shopping People in China may pay with WeChat (微信) on the phones. We seldom use paper money.
While WeChat Pay is now a part of life in our country, this way of paying also appears in other countries. A lot of foreign companies and traders have to accept it. According to Xinhua News, about 13 foreign countries have WeChat Pay services for Chinese travelers.
Is it good or bad to use WeChat Pay Will people no longer use paper money in the future Some discussions appear on the Internet.
“I don’t think so. Nearly half of Chinese people live in the countryside. People there can’t enjoy it without good Internet service. And most old people like to use paper money,” said Winnie.
“WeChat Pay is convenient and safe. We needn’t tell if the money is real or fake. But paper money is just the opposite. We should encourage people to use WeChat Pay more,” said Kim Smith, a wise man.

A greener city, a better life
As middle school students, we should create a greener city to live a better life. However, it’s a pity that we often see some people drop litter everywhere. Some forget to turn off the lights when leaving the room.
To live a better life, we can ride or walk to school instead of taking a car. Also, it’s a good idea to separate the rubbish into different groups so that things like bottles can be recycled. Moreover, it is important for us to develop a green lifestyle. We should save water and stop wasting food.
All in all, if everyone does his part, we can live a better life in a greener city.
