“No building comes without carvings，and carvings make buildings more valuable，”goes an old saying in Minnan，an area in southern Fujian Province. The saying refers to brick carvings，which were an important feature of the old red brick buildings in the area

The carvings were once commonly found on either side of the main entrance of Minnan's buildings. However, with development, the number of ancient red brick buildings has decreased, and Minnan's brick carvings have gradually faded from sight, said Wu Jiandong, a young master brick carver from Fujian's Quanzhou City.

The 42-year-old has learned the traditional technique and now combines it with modern tastes to develop his own style of brick carving. Wu said that he hoped to be able to help the traditional craft continue through innovation.

“Market demands have changed in recent years，and so has our thinking，”Wu said, “We must add modern elements to help pass down and develop traditional crafts.”

People in Minnan love tea, so Wu created a series of carved brick tea decorations, including tea plates, cup holders, pot holders and other items. They have been warmly received by local people and foreign visitors.

Earlier this year, a pendant(挂件)decorated  with a swallow tail ridge(屋脊)and a bright moon was bought by an overseas Chinese man from the Philippines. The customer told Wu that he would hang the pendant in his office as a reminder of the architecture and the moon of his hometown.

Because of the market's recognition of his work, Wu will be able to pass down the craft and further develop his pieces，and the popularity of short videos has also given him new hopes of promoting(推广) Minnan brick carvings.

The art form originated during the Song Dynasty and flourished(繁荣)during the Ming and Qing dynasties.It is now an important part of national cultural heritage .

29.The underlined word "innovation" in the passage probably means _________in Chinese.

A. 推广               B.雕琢              C.模仿             D.创新

30.We can infer from the sixth paragraph that___________.

A. Wu's most customers came from abroad.

B. brick carvings become symbols of homesickness for overseas Chinese.

C. the pendant of brick carving becomes popular.

D. Wu's brick pieces are warmly received all over the world.

31.How did Wu feel about his brick art pieces?

A. Confident.               B. Worried.              C .Disappointed.    D. Surprised.

32.What is probably the best title for this passage?

A. An artist with his own style of brick carvings.

B. The ancient red brick buildings in Minnan.

C. Minnan's brick carving art is coming back.

D. The history of Minnan's brick carvings.

The Royal Mint has announced plans for a new factory where it will deal with electronic waste to get precious metals for coins and gold bars. The factory plans to open at Llantrisant in South Wales next year. It will be the first of its kind in the world.

The Royal Mint is a government-owned company that makes coins for the UK and lots of other countries. Most of its coins are made from cheaper metals such as copper, tin and zinc, but the Mint sometimes makes coins and medals from precious metals like gold and sliver.   ______  Countries and banks like to keep gold bars. They are very valuable and their price doesn’t go up or down suddenly.

The precious metals used by the Mint mostly come from the ground, but now it plans to make use of the large amounts of electronic waste (known as e-waste)that is thrown away in the UK each year. Many electronic devices use small amounts of precious metals such as gold and silver because they are good conductors (of electricity. However, it is believed that just 20%of old electronics are recycled worldwide. This is not just a waste, it can be dangerous, because when e-waste is buried in rubbish dumps, metals and chemicals can leak out and pollute the environment.

Now, e-waste from the UK is sent abroad to be melted down to recover precious metals. The new factory will use chemical reactions to do the same job much quicker with far less energy. The process can get 99%of the precious metals from plastic circuit boards within a few seconds, and could provide the Mint with hundreds of kilograms of gold each year.

“Our new plant will see the Royal Mint become a leader in sustainably(可持续地)sourced precious metals,” said Anne Jessopp，the Mint’s chief boss. She added that the factory would also help the UK process its own e-waste rather than send it to other countries.

33. What is the plan for the new factory?

A. It will try to recycle plastic waste.

B. It will keep as many gold bars as it

C .It will make different plastic circuit boards.

D. It will get precious metals from electronic waste.

34. Which of the following sentences can be put in   “_____”in the second paragraph?

A. Gold and silver run out.

B. It also makes gold bars.

C. Medals are very popular.

D. They come from electronic waste.

35.What can be inferred from Paragraph 3?

A. Old electronics are not fully recycled.

B. E-waste isn't thrown away in the UK a tall.

C. Most old electronics are recycled worldwide.

D. E-waste should be buried in rubbish dumps carefully.

 We all need to eat.    36    But sometimes they are not. However, could eating too many meals alone be bad for our health? A recent study suggests that frequently eating alone may lead to poor eating habits and poor food choices.

     The Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development(OECD) looked at data from nearly three quarters of the world’s countries.    37    Children who eat a main meal with their families are also less likely to abuse drugs and alcohol.

     Another study from the University of Montreal found that children who ate with their families experience long-term physical and mental health benefits. These children were physically in better shape and drank fewer sugary soft drinks.    38__  

     If you find too many of your mealtimes to be lonely events,experts at the Mental Health Foundation in the U.K. suggest making small changes.   39   And keep it simple. Even if dinner is a salad and a sandwich, it is still time for a family to be together.

       40   Once a month potluck(便餐会)dinners where every friend or neighbor brings a dish could be an easy way to start.

     If you work in an office, step out with a co-worker for a bite to eat every once in a while instead of eating at your desk every day. Or you could simply schedule time in your week to share a cup of coffee or tea with a friend.

A.So, meals could be a chance to spend time with others

B. These children also seemed to have better social skills

C. Eating alone can also have some benefits according to him.

D. They suggest making room for at least one shared meal a week.

E. So spare time with families and friends as long as possible.

F. If you live alone, reach out to those in your social circle or neighborhood.

G.They found that students sharing a main meal were less likely to skip school.

阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。

Since I was young, I always enjoyed cooking. Every night I would sit in the kitchen and watch my mother make dinner. I had a set of toy pots and pans, and would copy her actions at the table---pretending to pour in ingredients and mix them excitedly just as she did. On Sundays,my grandmother would make us a huge family dinner.  A dish cooked from a charred chicken with flavored sauce enjoyed great popularity with us. Watching her in the kitchen was like watching an artist at work. She never needed a cookbook and never had to follow a recipe. Everything was second nature.I couldn't wait to learn to cook myself.

So it was no surprise when as an adult I decided to be chef. I had worked in a number of kitchens over the years but when I got the chance to be the head chef at an new restaurant, I could not  have been more excited.

On the first night the restaurant opened, I proudly put my apron on and prepared for success. Soon, orders came in, and the kitchen was full of staff running in every direction. There were many waters coming in and out, and cooks walking between stations. It was very exciting, but a bit stressful. There was so much to do and a lot of pressure to do it perfectly. It seemed like the crowd was not slowing down.

I was hurrying to gather ingredients from the shelves and fill the orders when there was a scream from the other side of the kitchen. Looking over, I saw one of the other cooks holding her hand in pain. She had burned her fingers on a pan. I ran over to help, and as we placed her hand under cold water, a puff of smoke started to rise out of the oven.

“Oh, no!”I screamed. I reached the oven just in time to open the door and see the charred remains of a roast. Placing my hand on my head，I thought the night couldn’t get much worse. One of the waiters came into the kitchen, looking very worried. Wiping the sweat off his forehead, he said anxiously, “ The guests are asking for the roast.”

注意：续写词数应为150左右。

I stared at the charred roast, anxious to find a solution .

One possible version:

Dear David

It’s  said that our drama club will celebrate its twentieth birthday and I’d like to offer some of my suggestions about how to improve our club to a new level.

I joined the club last year. In the club, not only did I learn some techniques in opera,but also I made some good friends, from whom I also learned a lot about opera.However, I’ve also found that the costumes prepared for the dramas are a bit too old and simple, which really greatly affects the final performances.

Despite the seemingly disappointing costumes,I’m sure our club will make the best one in the future. 

Yours,

 Li Hua

I stared at the charred roast, anxious to find a solution. Suddenly, its smell dragged me back to a family dinner, when my grandmother cooked a delicious dish from a charred chicken. Letting out an excited scream, I cooked like an artist just the way she did. I mixed vinegar with sugar to make a kind of sauce and then poured it onto the roast. Finally, the waiter served a flavored roast to the guests. "What if the guests don't like the dish?" I thought to myself.

Just then, one of the guests asked to speak to the chef. Never before in my life had I sunk into such a nervous situation. I followed the waiter ,my heart in my mouth. To my surprise, the guest stood up and held my hands. "Thanks for bringing the taste of the hometown back to me, "she said in excitement. Beyond my expectation ,the first night as the head chef turned out to be a great success. With a brand-new outlook, I returned to the kitchen and continued to brighten people's lives with delicious food.
