Passage 1
On April 26, 2017, a big Chinese ship caught the eye of the whole world. China's first homemade aircraft carrier(航空母舰) hit the water in Dalian, Liaoning.
The new big ship is China's second aircraft carrier. It was designed in China and built in China, too. It is about 315 meters long and 75 meters wide. That is a bit larger than three soccer fields.
An aircraft carrier is like an airport on the sea. It can carry planes and troops to war. Planes fly from the carrier and land back on it, and soldiers work and live on it, too. But building an aircraft carrier is so hard and expensive. It
costs a lot of money and needs a large amount of steel and other special materials. For example, a basic aircraft carrier is made of 60,000 tons of steel. It also uses complex(复杂的)technologies, including radar, electrics, mechanics and weapons. Finally, it takes years to build one. Today, not many countries own an aircraft carrier or have the ability to build one. China has become the seventh country in the world that can build an aircraft carrier by itself, after the USA, Russia, England, France, Italy and Spain.

Passage 2
With the rapid development of technology and the Internet, new methods and ecological(生态的) ideas provide more possibilities for the Chinese to read. The newly national reading report shows that 80 percent of Chinese adults read books, newspapers or magazines in 2018, a year-on-year increase.
Prevailing(盛行的) digital(数字的) reading
The growth of digital reading has made reading more popular among the Chinese. According to a survey, about 76 percent said they had accessed(访问) content through digital channels.
Listening to audiobooks has become a new growth point in terms of reading habits. According to Ximalaya, 16.9 percent of its total users listen to its audiobooks. To attract more users, the mobile app allows users to vote for the book they hope to listen to most. The audio app tries to meet their needs.
①
Li Yang, a student in Beijing, used to be worried by piles of books as her house is too small. The problem was solved when she started to sell the used books on an online second-hand bookstore Deja Vu. “By selling them, most of my books which used to gather dust in the corner can come to life again,” she said.
According to a survey by giant Alibaba in 2018, the market for the second-hand book was booming last year as more Chinese tend to trade or exchange their used books online.
The rise of online second-hand book platforms and sharing ideas also contributed to the booming book recycling.
Users are able to sell their books by scanning the barcode(扫条形码) of books and then wait for the courier(快递员) to collect them. The collected books will be cleaned, disinfected(消毒) and packed before selling to other readers at a lower price.
According to Deja Vu, its total users hit 1.4 million in 2018, with 2 million used books being sold. It has a daily business of 20,000 books. “When I see my books being read by others, I can feel a pleasure of sharing, which is really amazing,” Li Yang said.
