14．　　In my opinion, China's "Double Reduction" Policy ("双减"政策) aimed at easing (减轻) education-related pressure on parents and children is effective. Now take my home as an example to show how it works.
　　"Dad! Get up! You promised to take us to the zoo today!" my two daughters shouted together one recent Saturday morning. The clock had just struck seven, but our house had already gotten nosier than the monkeys in the zoo!
For families with children, weekends have become very different. In the past, my wife and I could at least sleep in (睡懒觉). Then at 9 o'clock, we had to wake up the kids. After throwing them into a tutoring class (辅导班), we could enjoy several hours to ourselves. But now, these classes are gone altogether. Kids, of course, are happy about this. Every Tuesday or Wednesday evening, my girls would ask me, "Where are we going to spend this coming Saturday?"
Luckily, there are still some classes for them to attend. On Sundays, my girls go to learn ballet and chess. They really enjoy their time there. My elder daughter is old enough to read quietly on her own. On lucky days, we can get her to read together with her sister. Still, a quiet "competition" is on. My girls sometimes talk about how their classmates have spent an exciting weekend. It's their way of complaining about my laziness.
Weekends are more tiring now for parents, but I think they are good for kids. After all, childhood should be more than just studying school subjects. It should be more colorful.

15．根据文段内容, 给每个文段选择一个最合适的标题．其中有一项为多余选项．
　　(1)      Many people like animals and take them as their pets. Nowadays pet hospitals are very busy. Persons who love animals are needed to work in busy animal hospitals.
　　(2)      What about a robot for a pet?This may sound silly, but it could become true. Robot dogs have been made to bark like real dogs. These "pets" might become more and more popular in the future. After all, robots don't lose hair or chew on things the way real pets do.
　　(3)      Lots of people miss their pets while they are on holiday. One hotel in Minnesota, USA, has solved this problem. They lend cats to their guests. Many experts believe this idea will become more and more popular. It is very possible that in the future you will be able to order a pet, as well as room service, at a hotel.

16．阅读下列材料, 根据其内容完成阅读任务．
　　What's the Silk Road?In history, it was an important international trade route (贸易路线) between China and the Mediterranean Sea (地中海). The Silk Road began in the Western Han Dynasty and has a history of more than 2, 000 years.
　　In the past, the road started in Chang'an (now Xi'an) and ended in Eastern Europe near the Mediterranean Sea. It was about 6, 500 kilometers long and went across 1/4 of the world.
　　The Silk Road got its name in the 19th century because Chinese silk was famous, and traders carried it to other places along this road. Traders also carried porcelain and other things to the West. And glass, gems and food like carrots from the West came to China.
　　The Silk Road was very important to both China and the rest of the world. It was more than an international trade route. Lots of arts and science of other countries came to China across the Silk Road. In this way, languages and cultures influenced each other.
　　Today, China is trying to make the dream of the Belt and Road come true.

17．　　Beep! Beep! Beep! The barcode (条形码) technology makes it faster and easier to buy things in stores. You have probably see the black﹣and﹣white barcode on (1)      (product) packaging (外包装). In 2022, the great invention is 51 years old.
