「 Big things have small beginnings. 大的成就始于小的开始。  每晚遇见每一个关注昕妈心语的你 」 喜欢郑燮《竹石》里的这一诗句：“千磨万击还坚劲，任尔东西南北风。” 转眼间就是三月的第二周，迎来了万木生芽的阳春之际。凡事都要再坚持一下，因为熬过困苦寒霜时，生活所给予的苦难，终将成为笑谈，亦是成为激发我们成长的催化剂。 1 The annual sessions of China's top legislature and political advisory body will open this week to chart the course for a key year in the country's new journey toward national rejuvenation.

The company is shutting down a total of 68 physical and this is already the end of its Amazon Books. Amazon put an end to traditional bookstores after it opened its own, but now it is getting rid of them, so the most extensive place to find books has been officially extinguished. The company confirmed its plan to shut all of Amazon Books and some other retail shops on Wednesday, March 2. It explained that the move is part of the company's strategy to shift its retail business and broaden its scope. It was mentioned earlier that Amazon will also end the operations for its two other physical retail concepts - the 4-star, a store designed to help customers discover products they will love and offers selections for devices, games, books, consumer electronics, kitchen, home, toys, and many more. The Pop Up store is a place where customers can find trending and most exciting items. Millions of products are available, and people can also find these items on Amazon.com. As per CNN Business, the closure of physical stores of the said Amazon brands was done so the company can focus more on its other retail businesses with physical outlets such as Whole Foods and Amazon Fresh. 解析：亚马逊将关闭所有实体书店，包括Pop Up和四星级零售店。该公司将关闭总共68家实体书店，这已经是其亚马逊图书的终结。阅读时注意宾语从句、动词不定式等语法知识点的应用。 4 BEIJING — In March, China plans to have 115 of its superbly trained and intensely driven athletes compete on the Chinese Paralympic Team at the Winter Games in Beijing. China has dominated the medal count at the last five consecutive Paralympic Games and is projected to sweep again this year. Its method for success? Substantial state funding and a highly competitive track for identified athletic talent. "China was always behind disabled athletes as an acceptable symbol of China's modernity that the government cares for the people," says Susan Brownell, an anthropology professor at the University of Missouri-St. Louis who studies big sporting events. "Now they've become savvier about utilizing the Games as a platform to promote their national image." Yet this system also reflects a paradox: While China supports Paralympic athletes, people with disabilities ordinarily face extreme hurdles in accessing jobs and public spaces in China. "Sports is one of the few ways a person with disabilities can receive resources from the state," says Chen Bo, a law professor at the Macau University of Science and Technology who specializes in disability access.（NPR） 解析：今年3月，中国计划派出115名训练有素、干劲十足的运动员参加北京冬冬残奥会。在过去五届残奥会上，中国一直在奖牌榜上占据主导地位，预计今年将再次称霸。取得成功方法是什么?大量的国家资金和高度竞争的轨道，以确定体育人才。阅读时注意定语从句、动词不定式等语法知识点的应用。 |
