It may come as a surprise to learn that she neither shopped at a mall nor ate at a fancy restaurant. She climbed a mountain. For eight days in May, Minnal hiked nearly 100 kilometres to reach the 5364-metre-high Everest(珠穆朗瑪峰) base camp in Nepal. The girl talked about her special trip, “I thought this was the most meaningful trip for me.” It has not been confirmed if the Primary Four pupil is indeed the youngest Singaporean to reach the base camp, as no such records are kept. Everests south base camp in Nepal is where climbers planning to climb the worlds highest peak, stay to get used to the altitude(海拔高度). However, it will be some years before Minnal can actually climb the Everest as climbers have to be at least sixteen years to climb the peak. How did it all start? It all began last year when Minnals mother decided she might want to climb the famous Himalayas. As a good hiker, she asked both father and daughter if they were up for the challenge. This year, on 20 May, the family flew to Nepal. Minnal shared that most of the eight days were spent hiking ten to fifteen kilometres from 8a.m. to 6 p.m. each day, with the help of three local guides. Luckily, she added, nobody fell ill with altitude sickness.

Well, the Chinese government does this too-it writes the Government Work Report.Every year in spring, the National Peoples Congress (全國人民代表大會) meetings are held in Beijing, and big issues (議題) of the country are discussed. At one meeting on March 5th, Premier Li Keqiang brought out this years Government Work Report. This year is quite special because 2016 is the beginning of the 13th Five-Year Plan. Thus, this report lays out (制定) a big plan, which China will follow over the next five years.For a long time, China has seen fast economic development. Both the country and its people have been becoming richer and richer. But last year, China saw the slowest economic growth speed in the past 25 years. The report pointed out that people dont have to worry because China is welcoming a “new economy”. Goals for the economy are always one of the most eye-catching parts.China used to rely(依靠)a lot on industries like making clothes and toys, which dont need much science or technology. But now China is changing. It will focus more on developing high-tech companies and service industries like tourism, according to the report.The report also plans to help people have better lives. The government needs to make sure that city air is clean 80 percent of the year. China will also help more people get good medical care, and they want to increase the average persons lifetime by one year.Although facing different kinds of problems, the report believes in a bright future for China. “From the start, China has been developing while dealing with challenges. There is no difficulty we cannot get beyond,” wrote the report.（請將答案寫在答題卡上）1. How often are the National Peoples Congress meetings held in Beijing? 2.

When in standby mode (待機模式), your PC is still using energy. Turning off a monitor (顯示器) for 40 hours a week may only save $ 5 a month, but it reduces CO2 by 750 pounds. WAY 3: Reuse plastic bags. Instead of throwing away 100 billion plastic bags a year, try and get a second, third, or tenth use out of them. Better yet, next time you shop, try a reusable bag. The amount of oil it would take to make just 14 plastic bags would run your car for one mile. WAY 4: Use recycled paper in the bathroom. Most of the toilet paper we use is made from trees found in forests. If every family took the place of one roll of toilet paper with a recycled one, 424,000 trees would still be standing.

Just one tree will help make cleaner air and save the environment from 5,000 pounds of hot carbon dioxide each year. 1. How many ways are mentioned in the passage? 2.
