In December 2004, as a professional photographer (摄影师), I was working on a project about people who lived on the sea. I lived with members of the Chao-Ley tribe (部落) on a small island. We didn’t    16    a language and depended on body language to communicate.

I often went out to sea with them. One morning, I    17    with a group of six fishermen in a small boat. It was about 8 am, and the sea looked different. But the water was    18    quiet.

About 20 minutes later, we saw a small white spot a few miles away in the open    19   . It was getting bigger very quickly. This was a tsunami (海啸) wave    20    through the ocean.

Usually, the deeper the water, the    21    the wave (波浪). But we weren’t out far enough to be safe, nor close enough to make it back. We were stuck. I began to feel really    22   .

At some point the captain took control. He told the six of us    23    to sit, so we would balance (平衡) out the boat. My    24    was in my backpack. I wanted to catch the scene, but I couldn’t. I sat quietly and got ready    25    being hit.

Suddenly there was a huge    26   . The wave hit the boat, but just at that moment, the    27    captain managed to surf it for a few seconds. Then the boat glided (滑行) from the top of the wave down into safe waters. The captain had    28    us all.

It gave me a deep understanding. My photography    29    has become a thank-you to the people who saved my life. The picture I wanted to take on the boat becomes “the one that got away”—I think every photographer has one. But    30    changed my life. How amazing!

At the end of the third term, we had a celebration at our school. We played a game of dodgeball (躲避球). It was our first dodgeball game since the quarantine (隔离) came to an end in Johor Bahru, Malaysia.

Dodgeball is a game played by two teams of people. Both teams try to hit each other with dodgeballs. The team that the most players are left on the court (球场) wins.

I was on the red team. Our competitor, the green team, had many experienced players. So it was not a good start for us at first. We lost many important teammates, while only a few of their unimportant players was knocked out. I got knocked out early as well.

Surprisingly, the rest of teammates tried to knock out a number of our competitors, leaving the green team with fewer numbers.

In our dodgeball game, we didn’t need to completely knock out the other team. All we needed was just to have our last members try their best to avoid being hit at the last five minutes! I shouted: “Guys! Just keep your eyes on them and dodge (躲开)! We have more people on the court! Time is on our side!” The plan worked: All of our members saved, winning the match when the last whistle (哨声) blew.

Dodgeball, while being a seriously fun and competitive sport, also requires critical thinking (批判性思维). If I learned anything from that game, it was that my brain can get me out of a lot of difficult situations.

34. The 2nd paragraph is mainly about ______.

A. the introduction of the team B. our first dodgeball game

C. the rules of the dodgeball D. a celebration at our school

35. We can learn from the passage that the writer ______.

A. came from the green team B. was stopped playing early

C. was the leader of the team D. kept playing till the last minute

36. If a team want to win the game of the dodgeball, they should ______.

A. hit skilled players first  B. have young players

C. have more players remained D. knock out more dodgeball

37. In the last paragraph, the writer thinks the game of dodgeball is ______.

A. full of surprising  B. a bit dangerous

C. kind of upset  D. full of thinking

C

Stooping (弯腰), the practice of hunting down and picking up waste goods on city sidewalks, has become popular in big Chinese cities including Beijing, Shanghai, Wuhan and Shenzhen.

A young man nicknamed Luo Ergou recently rode a second-hand electric bike through hutongs in Beijing, in search of valuable goods that had been thrown. As a skilled sidewalk searcher, he knows where and when to hunt. Luo went through hutongs two or three days a week and focuses on rubbish bins, street corners, or doorsteps of people who are moving the house or decorating their homes. As he gets more experience, he can discover unwanted things from local people’s homes.

Stoopers turn street finds into things they need. For example, Luo has ever turned a headboard he recycled (回收) into a cat toilet.

And for stoopers who are also renters (租客), they need to find out whether they actually need the finds. “I got some sidewalk finds for free. So when I move out of my old apartment, I will leave the things I no longer want in the house for the next renter. I can fill my new apartment with new sidewalk finds,” Boniu, a woman from Shanghai, said. Sometimes, she found that she didn’t need all the things, so she shared photos of them online, in the hope that someone would take them and give them a new home. Because of it, she has attracted over 20000 followers on Xiaohongshu.

One person’s trash is another person’s treasure. Although some have criticized (批评) sidewalk stoopers like Luo and Boniu as being nothing more than attention seekers, that does not upset them. They think it is the older people’s tradition of hard work.

38. According to the passage, stooping is ______.

A. sharing the street finds with people in need

B. looking for old things in small cities in China

C. searching for valuable things in people’s homes

D. hunting down and picking up waste things

39. The underlined word “it” in Paragraph 4 probably means ______.

A. getting more waste things B. finding a new home

C. sharing photos online  D. meeting a partner

40. Luo and Boniu think stooping ______.

A. makes them feel sad  B. is a tradition of hard work

C. is a waste of time  D. helps them make money

41. The best title of the passage might be ______.

A. Give new life to old objects B. Getting more fans

C. Learn to share things online D. Stop picking waste things

D

A team of Volkswagen (大众) designers and engineers developed a high-tech office chair that you can drive at a top speed of 12mph (20km/h).

Most high-tech office chairs simply prevent either water or kinds of pollution, or they are designed at a higher standard, especially about ergonomics (人类工程学). But Volkswagen’s recent take on a high-tech office chair shows just how low the standard is at the present.

The German car producer designed an office chair with a built-in motor and controls allowing the user to drive it at a top speed of 12mph. And that’s just one of the crazy ideas that built into this one-of-a-kind piece of office furniture (家具).

The main goal of this project was to put many smart parts that were found in a real Volkswagen car into an office chair, and the team did a truly excellent job.

Not only did they manage to put in a real motor and driving controls, but also a seat belt, honk, built-in speakers, and even tiny parts for the chair wheels.

The futuristic office chair also comes with 360-degree collision prevention sensors (感应器), a backup camera, a touchscreen display, headlights built into the armrests, LED party lights, USB charging, a small pocket for storing documents and the WV logo added into the headrest.

If you’re wondering about self-acting driving, Volkswagen says that its high-tech office chair comes with an exchangeable battery (电池), which offers a list of around 12km on a single charge.

42. The high-tech office chair made by Volkswagen can be driven at a top speed of ______.

A. 12 meters an hour  B. 12 kilometers an hour

C. 20 miles an hour  D. 20 kilometers an hour

43. The underlined word “designed” in Paragraph 3 probably means ______.

A. imagined B. attended C. created D. found

44. The main goal of the high tech office chair project is to ______.

A. compete with the other high-tech office chairs

B. allow the user to drive it at a speed of 22mph

C. fully use those great parts found in a real car

D. help it drive for about 12km without electricity

45. Paragraphs 5 and 6 mainly tell us ______ of the high-tech office chair.

A. the speed B. the advantages C. the influence D. the history

Afternoon tea is perhaps a relatively new tradition. In China, the custom of drinking tea can date back to 3BC. It    51    (传播) to England during the 1660s and its name first appeared in the 19th century.

It was introduced to England by Anna, the    52    (第七) Duchess of Bedford, in 1840. The Duchess would become    53    (饿的) around 4:00 pm. The evening meal was served at 8:00 pm, leaving a long    54    (时期) of time before dinner. The Duchess asked that a cup of tea, bread and butter and cake would be brought to her room,    55    (确切地) during the late afternoon. Gradually, it became her habit and she began inviting friends to join her.

This pause for tea became    56    (极有吸引力的) social event. The 1880’s upper-class women would change into long gowns,    57    (手套) and hats for their afternoon tea. It was usually served between 4:00 pm and 5:00 pm. Traditional afternoon tea is    58    (包装) with sandwiches and cakes. Nowadays however, afternoon tea is just a biscuit or small cake and a cup of tea,    59    (几乎) produced by using a teabag.

To experience the best of the afternoon tea tradition,    60    (任何人) can take a trip to one of London’s finest hotels in the west country. There is a wide choice of hotels in London offering the typical afternoon tea experience.

More Lebanese (黎巴嫩的) Students Fall In Love With Chinese Culture!

“More Lebanese students have shown interest in learning the Chinese language and studying China’s culture.” said    61    director of the Confucius Institute.

Lebanese parents expect their children to learn Chinese language. It is good for making friends and job    62    (chance) in the future, because China is super in economy and wins a lot of attention    63    other countries.”

During the celebration of the 15th anniversary, students showed their great interest in Chinese culture.    64    gave speeches in Chinese and performed Chinese calligraphy (书法) actively.

“So far, students at the Confucius Institute    65    (reach) over 1000.” Lattouf said. “They will    66    (offer) a new one-year program in Chinese culture and translation in September, mainly covering Chinese-Arabic translation.” Lattouf added    67    (proud).

“The Chinese embassy (大使馆) in Lebanon    68    (show) great support and promises to find training centers for students who have graduated from the project.” The Confucius Institute’s director said, “we hope that more Lebanese friends, especially the young people, can experience one of    69    (great) cultures in the world.

Good time management allows a person to complete more in a short time and leads to succeed. But what you achieve depends on how well you manage your time.    71  

Make a plan.

The best way to achieve success is to make a plan. This starts with a list of all the tasks that are important for achieving your goals.    72    As the time goes, you’ll feel that it’s not as good as you think it is.

Learn to say “no”

Many business leaders put a lot of their success down to simply saying “no”. That is, they put their effort into the few areas that really matter and have the courage to say no to everything else.

Give yourself a break.

Taking breaks is good for your brain. Don’t be hard on yourself. You will actually perform better if you take break and develop a life outside study. When you are not working, try to avoid looking at your work e-mails.    73    The world will not end if you delay opening some e-mails.

Update (更新) your plan.

Your plan list will need to be regularly updated, particularly when things are not going well: Work with your advisers to form updated list of tasks.    74  

Generally speaking, managing time is the key to success, so it’s necessary for you to manage your time properly.

75. Please give another suggestion on how to manage your time. (不多于5个词)
