Everything is changing every day in the world. While long-distance travel is not a top choice during this special time,camping has risen as a new travel trend (趋势)for people living in Chinese cities.

Ji Nan, 31, from Zhejiang, went camping with her friends in the mountains during the holiday.“It was relaxing,"Ji told China Daily.She said camping is a good way to get closer to nature and enjoy outdoor activities.
The growing popularity has also led to the need for camping products (产品),such as tents, outdoor tables and chairs, things for picnic and sleeping bags.Trip, an online travel company, said searches for their camping products on the first day of the May Day holiday rose by90 percent over the past week.
However,the need for places for camping is greater than the camping products.“Everywhere is full and there is a tent every several meters,” a tourist from Beijing told the reporter.
Besides these,camping isn't always good for the local(当地的)environment.In Shuangfeng area of Beijing,some of the land is barren because of too much foot traffic. Litter,like bamboo barbecue sticks(烧烤签)and waste paper ,could be seen everywhere,reported Xinhua.

Mr. Guo is a teacher from Xi'an. He asked his students to hand in their homework through a QR code (二维码).“We spend an hour or two in class learning how to generate (使产生) the code, and in the end everything gets easier," said Guo.“ When students finish the homework,they keep it on WeChat.Then,each student makes his own QR code and gives it to me.So I can check their work everywhere using my computer or phone.”
The QR codes can be sent to Mr.Guo by e-mail,QQ and WeChat.When Guo scans(扫描) his students’QR codes,their homework appears on his phone.He finds that their homework becomes more creative, with many pictures,music and even videos.
Guo's students like the new way and think it is interesting." We are living in the information age.Many students like to work with computers, which makes learning more fun," said Tingting, a student of Guo's.
“The paper is not easy to keep,but the code is easy to keep and share," Guo said."It is worth(值得)trying using new technology in education.Education itself is a kind of creation. I don't want my students to fall behind the times.”
However ,some parents are worried. They are afraid that their children will spend too much time on computers or phones and less time communicating with teachers.But in fact,it's unnecessary. Students still need to look up information in books and write it down when they do their homework. They only use the code when they hand in their work, which doesn't take them too much time.Also for teachers, it allows them to check the students' work at any time. And it's also an easy way to share homework with other students.

Children's lives have changed a lot in the past few years.But do they have a happier childhood than we did
36______ I have two brothers and two sisters,and my memories are all about being with them.We used to play board games in the living room, spend days in the street with other children, race up and down on our bikes, or explore(探究) the nearby woods. 37______ They only appeared during meals.
These days, the nature of childhood has changed. Firstly,families are smaller.It is common for both parents to work outside. They don't have any way to take their children with them.38______ Another change is that children spend most of their free time at home, inside. Parents worry too much about their children's safety, so they don't allow their children to play outside by themselves.
Finally, the toys children have and the ways they play are completely different. 39______ The funny thing is that so many ways of playing games are called “interactive(互动的)”.The fact that you play electronic games on your own can increase the sense of loneliness.
40______ I personally believe that they do, but perhaps every generation(一代人)feels exactly the same.
A. I usually look back on my own childhood.
B. As a result,children spend much of their time alone.
C. My parents seldom appeared at the moments.
D. Do these changes mean that children today have a less relaxing childhood than I did
E. Computer and video games have taken the place of the board games and other interesting activities of my childhood.
