I live in Xizhou in Yunnan Province, on the historic Tea Horse Road. I have to admit that when I first heard that Paul Salopek was going to walk the entire globe on his own two feet, I was blown away. I couldn’t imagine that there could be such an unusual person in the world.

Last May, I met Paul. He told me that it was his first time in China. He talked to me with great excitement about the history, migrations, and discoveries in my region of China. He spoke of the Shu-Yandu Dao (the Southern Silk Road), the travels of the 17th-century Chinese explorer Xu Xiake, the Tea Horse Road and the early 20th-century American botanist Joseph Rock. He also talked of Xuanzang. Paul considered many of them heroes and in a sense Chinese pioneers of slow journalism.

I decided to accompany Paul on his walk toward Yunnan. On September 28, 2021, we set out. Our days were simple: walk, eat, sleep, and repeat. We woke up at sunrise, set off in high spirits, and rested at sunset, dragging ourselves into exhausted sleep.

We met many people on the road. Some were curious, surrounding us and watching us; some gave us directions; some invited us into their home to take a rest; some spoke of the charm of their hometown. We met many beautiful souls, simple souls and warm souls. We were walking with our minds.

Together, we were impressed by the biodiversity of the Gaoligong Mountains. As I walked on ancient paths through mountains, I seemed to hear the antique voices of past travelers urging me to be careful on the road.

Looking back on the more than 200 miles I walked with Paul, I came to a realization. Walking for its own sake, while healthy and admirable, is only a small part of the benefit of moving with our feet. A deeper reward is rediscovering the world around us, shortening the distance between each other, and sharing each other's cultures.

4. How did the writer first respond to Paul’s travel plan?

A. Scared. B. Puzzled. 

C. Disappointed. D. Surprised.

5. What can we learn about Paul Salopek from paragraph 2?

A. He was a western journalist. B. He had a knowledge of China.

C. He came to China several times. D. He was Joseph Rock’s acquaintance.

6. What does paragraph 4 tell us about the writer and Paul?

A. They honored the ancestors. B. They set off in high spirits.

C. They satisfied the locals’ curiosity.           D. They built bonds with people.

7. What is the main purpose of the writer’s writing the text?

A. To share and reflect on a journey.       

B. To suggest a new way of travel.

C. To advocate protection of biodiversity.   

D. To introduce and promote Chinese culture.

C

For years, Apple’s business has centered around the iPhone, but sales of that once-revolutionary but now commonplace device have slowed. And the entire world of computers has been flipped (翻动) on its head. Apple has been diversifying beyond hardware, selling iCloud storage to its customers, a $10 a month music streaming service and movies and television shows through iTunes.

But Monday’s concerned announcement takes that diversification to a whole new level. Apple said it was launching a lot of new services, from news to video games and a credit card. Its biggest project is entertainment streaming service Apple TV+.

Apple is expected to invest many billions a year, according to analysts, on making video content to compete in a crowded market that includes Amazon, Netflix, Hulu and Disney.

The real magic in consumer technology is happening less and less inside the devices people carry around and more and more in server farms scattered around the world, where massive amounts of data get processed and then transmitted to electronics like the Amazon Echo or Google Home.

In fact, the electronics people are excited about buying are becoming vessels for sending and receiving data. And in that area, Apple has fallen behind companies like Google, Amazon and Microsoft, which now pull in significant revenue from selling cloud services, which is a fancy term for data center usage and storage.

The invite Apple sent to invitees said simply, “It’s show time.” The question now is whether Apple can break a leg.

8. Where does the magic of consumer technology come from?

A. Streaming service. B. iCloud storage. 

C. Server farms. D. Video games.

9. What does the underlined word “revenue” in Paragraph 5 probably mean?

A. Income. B. Advertisements. 

C. Equipment. D. Games.

10. What does the author tend to agree with?

A. The sales of iPhone have been taking the lead in the world.

B. Apple expects to develop many new functions in its phone.

C. People are crazy about getting some new electronics in life.

D. Apple provides a lot of new services for its consumers now.

11. What is the main idea of the passage?

A. Apple’s new efforts to compete against competitors.

B. Electronics will play important roles in technology.

C. Some companies do better than Apple in technology.

D. Apple is able to benefit a lot from its diverse service.

D

Please don’t feel singled out, special, or view yourself as a chosen one. She bites everyone. This is just the nature of the beast. There is absolutely no truth to the persistent myths that mosquitoes fancy females over males; that they prefer blondes and redheads over those with darker hair；or that the darker or rougher your skin, the safer you are from her bite. It is true, however, that she does play favorites and feasts on some more than others.

Blood type O seems to be the choice over types A and B or AB. People with blood type O get bitten twice as often as those with type A, with type B falling somewhere in between.

Those who have higher natural levels of certain chemicals in their skin, particularly lactic acid （乳酸），also seem to be more attractive. From these elements, she can analyze which blood type you are. These are the same chemicals that determine an individual’s level of skin bacteria and unique body smell.

Mosquitoes are also attracted by perfumes, soaps, and other applied fragrances. While this may seem unfair to many of you, she also has a desire for beer drinkers.

Wearing bright colors is also not a wise choice, since she hunts by both sight and smell, the latter depending chiefly on the amount of carbon dioxide sent out by the potential target. So she can smell carbon dioxide from over 200 feet away. When you exercise, for example, you emit more carbon dioxide through both breath and output. You also sweat, releasing those appetizing chemicals, primarily lactic acid, that invites the mosquito’s attention.

Lastly, your body temperature rises, which is an easily identifiable heat signature. On average, pregnant women suffer twice as many bites, as they have a slightly raised body temperature.

Please don’t go on a shower, exercise or give up your beloved beer and bright T-shirts just yet. Unfortunately, 85% of what makes you attractive to mosquitoes is fixed in advance in your genetic circuit board （电路板）.At the end of the day, she will find blood from any exposed target of opportunity.

12. What is the purpose of the first paragraph?

A. To explain the reasons for mosquito bites.

B. To introduce a new discovery to the readers.

C. To prove that everyone suffers mosquito bites.

D. To arouse the interest of the readers in the topic.

13. Which element has nothing to do with mosquito bites?

A. Blood type. B. Chemicals of bacteria.

C. Color of clothes.                      D. Body temperature.

14. What does the underlined sentence in the last paragraph mean?

A. All the mosquito bites are caused by your genetic circuit board.

B. Your blood will be targeted by mosquitoes at every opportunity.

C. Mosquito bites can be avoided if you give up some relevant habits.

D. Your genes determine your attractiveness to mosquitoes to a great extent.

15. What is the most suitable title for the passage?

A. Keep off Mosquitoes B. Mosquito Bites Let Nobody off

C. Why are You a Mosquito Feeder D. Mosquitoes, a Threat to Our Health

Want a relaxing but fun challenge at home?    16     Puzzles have been around for more than 250 years and the challenge of working out where each piece goes and carefully recreating the scene on the box lid can keep you busy for hours, days or even weeks.

Puzzles come in a huge range of sizes and difficulty levels. For beginners, a 100-piece puzzle is usually a good starting point.  17    Try grouping pieces with the same colours or design because they will probably go in the same area once the puzzle takes shape.

   18     Those pieces are easier to find because they have a straight side. Stay patient as you search through and try to make it fit together. You may not find any connecting pieces for ages but then several may suddenly appear.

For a real test, puzzles that have 1,000 pieces or more are a tough task and it’s best to complete them with friends or family if you can. Choosing a scene that interests you, such as a favourite film, sport or location, can help keep you interested and determined to work to the final piece. You can get fun educational puzzles, too.   19

Once you have completed a puzzle it’s nice to exchange it with a friend.____20______ You just upload an image, such as a family scene, and they will make a puzzle from it and post it to you. It makes lovely and unusual present.

1. So others can have a go.
2. You can’t beat a good puzzle.

Dear Penny,

Knowing that you are confused about the custom of giving gifts in China, I’d like to share with some suggestions here.

To begin with, the meaning of the gifts lie in value rather than price. Giving that, you’d better found out the preference of your hosts. When comes to the color of wrapping paper, black or white may not be advisable, both of them are considered to be unlucky in China. Beside, it’s bad manner to pick a clock or a pair of shoes for your hosts. Finally, what makes the gifts specially is the bond between the sender and the recipient. The gifts to the hosts should not be cost.

I hope these suggestions will be of great help to you.

Yours,

Li Hua
