The movie Home Coming took the lead in the box office(票房) during the National Day holiday in 2022.

It tells a story that happened in North Africa. After a war breaks out there, two Chinese diplomats(外交官) are ordered to help evacuate the overseas Chinese. After completing the first task successfully, they learn that another group of Chinese citizens(公民) are still in great danger. Realizing that these people will die if they don’t give a hand, the two men travel through the war area. They risk their lives to help over 100 Chinese citizens go to a safe place. The movie not only shows how the two diplomats protect the people with courage, but also shows their deep love for the country and people.

Home Coming reminds many people of a similar real event which truly happened in Libya in 2011. Chinese Embassy(大使馆) helped the evacuation of more than 30,000 Chinese citizens.

The main module, Tianhe, was launched in April 2021. It holds the power source and main controls for the station, as well as the astronauts’ living area.

The new module, Mengtian (meaning “dreaming of the heavens”), is also designed as a laboratory. It is about 18 meters long and has 8 special research areas for experiments(实验). Mengtian is set up so that experiments can also be run outside the module itself. Chinese astronauts can use special robotic arms to run experiments from inside Tiangong.

China’s space program is working with the European Space Agency on some experiments on the Mengtian, China says that one day, foreign astronauts will also be able to visit Tiangong.

Tiangong space station is expected 19 last 10 to 15 years. Though the Mengtian module completes the station, China could add more modules in the future.

Many people may throw away the pits inside fruits after eating them, but inheritors of nut carving（核雕继承人）have turned them into artworks instead.

Weifang nut carving goes back to the Qing Dynasty. During that time, an old imperial craftsman（皇家手艺人）Wang Dayan spread the skill to the local people in Shandong Province. Craftsmen back then often used peach pits（桃核）to show off their artistic skills. Because of the high level of carving skills needed, the traditional culture and its rich artistic theme, Weifang nut carving was listed as a national intangible cultural heritage（国家非物质文化遗产）in 2008.

“One nut, from 0.8 to 6 centimeters long, can be made into fan pendants, earrings, buttons, seals and so on,” said Tan Wanhai, 48, an inheritor of Weifang nut carving. Tan has studied the art of nut carving for 25 years and has created many nut carvings.

However, the craftsman also said that bringing this kind of artwork to life is not easy. “Unlike some pits like olive（橄榄）pits which have a flat surface, each peach pit has its own special texture（质地）like human fingerprints, “ Tan said, adding, that, craftsmen have to study each peach pit to carefully plan out their artwork.

Nut carving craftsmen also need to have knowledge in many areas. According to Tan, they have to master skills in painting, seal carving and calligraphy from many traditional cultures.

Thanks to their creative design and fresh ideas, Weifang nut carving artworks have been increasingly welcomed by people in China. More people are learning the art and have even become inheritors to pass down the skill to young people.

“Now, the number of inheritors is about 1,000. But I believe it could be bigger. More craftsmen now give up the tradition of passing down the skill only through the family and open it up to anyone who is interested in learning the skill,” said Tan.

22．Weifang nut carving was listed as a national intangible cultural heritage because of ________.

①the high level of carving skills needed         ②its rich artistic theme

③the traditional culture                      ④the popularity around the world

A．①②③ B．②③④ C．①②④ D．①②③④

23．What does the fourth paragraph mainly tell us?

A．The cultural value of nut carving. B．The knowledge craftsmen have to master.

C．The inheritor and his carving artworks. D．Difficulties craftsmen have.

24．What can we learn about the passage?

A．Weifang nut carving goes back to the Ming Dynasty.

B．Tan thinks there could be more inheritors of nut carving.

C．More craftsmen now give up the tradition of passing down the skill.

D．Each peach pit has a flat surface and it’s easy to carve on it.

25．What could be the best title for the passage?

A．Tan’s Nut Carving Achievements B．Amazing Artworks in China

C．Carving Artworks out of Nut D．The History of Nut Carving

Life cycle of a butterfly

Have you ever seen a baby butterfly? If you have seen a caterpillar（毛虫）, then you have!    26    

This is called the larva stage（幼虫阶段）. Now let’s learn about the life cycle of butterflies.

   27    Some types of butterflies lay only one egg at a time. Other types lay up to a few hundred at a time! Caterpillars hatch（孵化）from the eggs. They are very tiny at first. The main job for caterpillars is to eat a lot and grow. They eat the leaves of the plant where they hatched.

   28    They form a cocoon（蚕茧）around themselves. Some types of caterpillars stay in their cocoons for only a few days. Other types stay inside for many months.    29    This change is called a metamorphosis（变形，尤指从蛹到昆虫）.

After the metamorphosis is done, they come out of their cocoons. But they are no longer worm-like babies! They are adult butterflies. They have beautiful wings.    30    Most of them live only two to four weeks. None of them live more than one year. So they start laying eggs right away. The cycle starts again!

A．Adult butterflies do not live very long.

B．Butterflies lay eggs on plants.

C．But all of them go through an amazing change!

D．Caterpillars then begin the pupa stage（蛹阶段）.

E．Butterflies start their lives as worm-like caterpillars.

ChatGPT is an AI system(系统) that can have a discussion and create written work. It can create material based on what it has learned     36     digital books and online naissance. Now three high school students in Cyprus have developed an     37     robot with the help of their teachers. It is special as it uses ChatGPT AI technology.

The robot is named AInstein. It is the size of a small adult and even has a screen for a face that appears to show human facial(面部)     38    . It speaks a North American form of English. And it can tell jokes, like “    39     was the math book sad? Because it had too many problems.” The robot enjoys     40     science books and spending time playing the violin.

The creators of AInstein want to use the technology to     41     learning experiences in the classroom. In fact, there     42     be a place for robots in education after all. British education expert Anthony Seldon predicts that robots will take over the classroom in 2027 and teachers will work as their helpers.

One thing is certain, though. A robot teacher is     43     than no teacher at all. In some parts of the world, there aren’t     44     teachers and 9—16 percent of children under the age of 14 don’t go to school. That problem could be partly     45     by robots, because they can teach anywhere and won’t get stressed, or tired, or move somewhere for an easier, higher-paid job.
