Perhaps you’ve seen the English letters “WC” in your city. They show public toilets. But do you know it is far from elegant (优雅的) English? In fact, foreigners from English-speaking countries rarely use the letters.
Workers in our city are changing “WC” signs all over the city. The government is spending much money changing all the bad English on signs and restaurant menus. Many other places in China are following our steps.
“WC, or water closet, is old-fashioned English. It sounds dirty to me,” says Charlie Shifflet, a young man from the US. The old sign will become “Gents/Men” and “Ladies/Women”.
“I see lots of poor English in everyday life, and not only on signs,” he says. “I know what they mean. But they are Chinglish, not real English. For example, when someone says to me ‘My hometown is Henan Province’, I know he should say: ‘My hometown is in Henan Province’. ‘Hometown’ is a smaller place in a province.” The common(通常的) mistakes include “Not Entry”, which should be “No Entry”, “Direction(方向) of Airport” should be changed to “To the Airport”. And it is “room rate(房价)”, not “room price”. And remember to “Keep off the grass”, rather than “Care of the green”.
1.What does the writer think of the use of “WC”?
A. He doesn’t think it means water closet.
B. He doesn’t think it old-fashioned English.
C. He doesn’t think it proper for a sign.
D. He thinks it elegant English.
2.The underlined word “rarely” means .
A. sometimes B. seldom C. often D . always
3.Charlie Shifflet .
A. is a Chinese living in America
B. thinks Chinese people are sometimes using incorrect English
C. likes to hear or see Chinglish
D. sometimes uses Chinglish
4.Which of the following signs does NOT use Chinglish(中国式英语)?
![]()
![]()
A.
B. ![]()
![]()
C.
D.
5.The last paragraph is about .
A. why there are so many Chinglish signs B. examples of Chinglish
C. where Chinglish signs are D. who uses Chinglish signs

Many children spend a lot of time watching or playing with electronic media –from televisions to video games, computers and other devices(设备).
So, it is natural that parents should wonder about the time children spend looking at a TV or computer screen. Americans say “screen time” when they talk about any time children spend in front of an electronic device.
Perhaps parents can stop worrying so much about screen time, at least for older boys and girls. In October 2016, the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) listed several suggestions for parents and child care workers. Here are some of the suggestions.
? Avoid digital media use in children younger than 18 to 24 months.
? For children aged 18-24 months, avoid letting the child watch media alone. And avoid using media as a way to comfort your child.
? For children two to five years of age, allow one-hour screen time on “high-quality(质量)programming” a day and watch it with your child.
? For children aged 6 and older, don’t spend too much time using media. Also, make sure that screen time does not take the place of healthy sleep, exercising, doing homework and other activities.
? Make sure to have media-free time together as a family, such as dinner or driving. Also make some areas of the home media-free. Turn off you child’s electronic devices an hour before bedtime.

3.How do parents deal with the screen time for children two to five years of age?
A. Choose proper programs and watch with them. B. Play with them for at least one hour.
