21、Listen to your books

With the development of technology and the Internet, there is a new trend（趋势）in reading audiobooks. More people are choosing to listen to audiobooks these days, according to this year's national reading report.

The report was released by the Chinese Academy of Press and publication (CAPP ). It shows that audiobooks have become quite popular among most readers. One in three adults listen to audiobooks. They mainly use popular audio sharing platforms（平台）like Ximalaya.

Kids have also been a main driver（主要驱动力）in the development of audiobooks. Ximalaya noted that the value of audiobook purchases (购买）made by those aged 13 to 18 in 2018 increased by 330 percent over that of 2017, the Beijing Evening News reported.

In addition, around 26. 8 percent of children under 3 years old listen to audiobooks. Most of them listen at least once a week. Their favorite categories（分类）are "stories for kids" and "poetry reading".

One of the reasons audiobooks have taken off is that people want to get more use out of their free time, China News Service reported. Whether they're at the gym, on a bus, or in bed, people can enjoy reading without a heavy paper book or an e-reader. Faster internet speeds mean one can download a whole book in just seconds, according to Wei Yushan, director of CAPP.

Audio app content designers have invited broadcasters (播音员）and production(制作）groups to join in content production. Both the quality and number of audiobooks being offered have greatly improved. More people can find the audiobooks they like the most, the report says.

22、When the weather is hot, you go to a lake or an ocean. When you are near a lake or an ocean, you feel cool. Why? The sun makes the earth（地面） hot but it cannot make the water very hot. Although the air over the earth becomes hot, the air over the water stays cool. The hot air over the earth goes up. Then the cool air over the water moves in and takes the place of the hot air. When it moves in, you will feel the wind. And the wind makes you cool.

Of course, scientists cannot answer all of our questions. If we ask “Why is the ocean full of salt（盐）?”, scientists will say that the salt comes from rocks. When a rock gets very hot or very cold, it cracks (断裂). Rain falls into the cracks and then carries the salt into the ocean. But then we ask, “What happens to the salt in the ocean?” The ocean does not get saltier every year. Scientists are not sure about the answer to this question.

25、People burn coal, gas and oil to get energy. But there are problems with these fuels (燃料). Firstly, these fuels c【1】 pollution. Pollution makes the air and water unsafe for p【2】. Secondly, these fuels will not last forever. One day, we will r【3】 out of these fuels. Scientists are looking for new k【4】 of energy. One is heat from the Earth. We know that the centre of the Earth is very hot. We cannot r【5】 the centre of the Earth, but in some places the heat from the Earth’s centre comes to the surface of the Earth. Perhaps you k【6】 about some of these places. One place is volcanoes (火山). It is very d【7】 to go near an active volcano, so we cannot use the energy from this. A【8】 kind of heat from the Earth is hot springs (温泉). In these places, hot water comes to the surface of the Earth. If this water is near a town, the hot water can be sent in pipes directly to people’s houses to heat them. In Iceland, this is a common w【9】 to heat houses. In Australia, scientists are looking for ways to make energy using hot rocks under the surface of the Earth. They want to pump water onto the hot rocks.
