Thugh the FIFA Wrld Cup came t an end in December 2022 the peple f a particular city in China were busy making sccer histry f their wn.
Zib in Shandng prvince is called “the hme f sccer ball”, being the birthplace f the ancient Chinese sprt f cuju．Mdern sccer sprt started in England, but cuju wn recgnitin frm FIFA, as the earliest frm f sccer in 2004．
“Side-flicking”, “chest dwn” and “shulder stpper” are sme f the key mves acquired by cuju players．Li Weipeng,34, frm Linzi district f Zib city, is a seventh-generatin inheritr (传承人) f cuju．He has been practicing these skills fr 18 years.
Acquiring different cuju skills is nt easy．“At the beginning, I spent eight hurs a day practicing juggling (颠) a ball．It was tiring,” Li said．He is nw able t juggle a ball with his ft ver 10,000 times in a rw.
Teaching students cuju mves is a part f Li’s jb．The traditinal Chinese sprt cuju is nw ppular at primary and middle schls in Linzi．Its mves have been adapted int dances and mrning exercises．“Students shw great interest in playing cuju, which encurages me t prmte the ancient sprt,” Li added.

It was a quiet early afternn in the library, and we librarians were enjying a chat at the library desk．Suddenly, a regular reader, wh had been reading a magazine, marched up t us, gave us an annyed “Shush (嘘)!” and went back t her seat．
Shcked int silence, we tried nt t laugh．Hw strange fr a grup f librarians t be shushed by a reader! Shuldn’t it be the ther way arund?
Well, it seems hard t explain．If yu’re a baby bmer (婴儿潮出生的人) like me, yu prbably remember libraries as places f adults’ silent reading．These days, hwever, libraries are mre like busy cmmunity centers, where being nisy t sme degree is the new nrmal, especially when kids are taking part．
I am a lud librarian．My vice is naturally n the luder side．The hundreds f prgrams I led as a children’s librarian were filled with singing, dancing, mvement exercises and cheerful readings f bks with crwds f children and their caregivers．N shushing allwed!
Grwing knwledge abut the imprtance f kids and teens learning thrugh hands-n experiences has since caused a sea change in hw public libraries cnnect with yung readers．These types f prgrams like bard games, petry reading and stry times certainly aren’t designed t be silent．
But it’s a balancing act．Nt all readers—r librarians—like the idea f a nisy library．It’s clear t me nw that n the day my clleagues and I were shushed by a reader, we shuld have been using ur “library vices” as we talked．Still, it’s unlikely that libraries will ever return t the days when they were places f silence．There’s just t much fun and learning happening．I heartily agree with my friend Rachel Payne, an early-childhd service educatr at the Brklyn Public Library, wh tld me, “When I visit a library and it is quiet, I always feel a bit sad．A library where cnversatins are happening and tables are full is a very gd thing!”
32．Hw did the authr think f the shush frm a reader?
A．Unexpectedly funny.B．Really annying.
C．Quite necessary.D．Very heartwarming.
33．What can be inferred abut tday’s libraries?
A．They serve kids nly.B．They becme quieter.
C．They are less ppular.D．They have different functins.
34．Why des the authr qute Rachel Payne?
A．T shw different vices.B．T express the authr’s idea.
C．T make the end interesting.D．T prmte a new reading methd.
35．What is the best title fr the text?
A．Hw t Act in the LibraryB．It’s OK fr a Library t Be Nisy
C．Why t Keep Silent in the LibraryD．It’s Necessary fr Librarians t Change

In the cming decade, space agencies and private space cmpanies like SpaceX are planning t build a base n the Mn and Mars．While scientists are already building rckets fr the jurney, fr lng-term human settlements n them, astrnauts will need fuel t carry ut daily tasks．Many have suggested hydrgen (氢)．But a grup f scientists is wrking n turning CO2 in the atmsphere int jet fuel．As Mars is rich in CO2 and the lunar surface has a high cncentratin f CO2, it may be a feasible slutin.
Fr nw the team f scientists at the University f Oxfrd is fcusing n making jet fuel fr the aviatin (航空) industry．As the aviatin industry releases ver 900 millin tns f CO2 every year, t battle climate change, it is necessary t turn the tide．S far aviatin scientists have tried t use ther energy resurces like electricity t fly．But such flights are limited t shrt distances．Fr lng-distance flights, there is n alternative yet.
The cncept f turning CO2 int jet fuel is nt new．Previusly, ther similar methds had t rely n expensive catalysts (催化剂) like cbalt t speed up the chemical reactin．But what Oxfrd scientists suggest is adding a cheap irn-based catalyst and hydrgen t turn CO2 int liquid fuel．As the prcess wuld nt require using fssil fuel, it will make the industry carbn neutral (碳中和的).
The scientists tested the new catalyst in a lab at 300°C and at 10 times the air pressure at sea level．The entire prcess tk 20 hurs and turned 38 percent f CO2 int new chemicals．Abut 48 percent f the chemicals were jet fuel hydrcarbn and the rest were ther by-prducts that are used in the prductin f plastic.
Prfessr Peter Edwards, a lead scientist in the prject, said the new methd culd be imprved in tw t three years t prduce jet fuel in large quantities．“This is a really exciting, ptentially revlutinary advance．Our visin is that the wrld can see that CO2 cllected can be used as an energy carrier t enable sustainable aviatin.”
36．Which wrd can best explain “feasible” underlined in paragraph 1?
A．Unique.B．Practical.C．Time-tested.D．Quick.
37．What prblem des the aviatin industry face?
A．It is suffering frm a serius fuel shrtage.
B．The traditinal jet fuel is much t expensive.
C．Climate change partly disturbs lng-distance flights.
D．Its alternative energy resurces are nt pwerful enugh.
38．What d we knw abut the Oxfrd scientists’ methd f fuel-making?
A．It is green and cst-saving.
B．It is cmplex and time-cnsuming.
C．It runs tests in natural envirnment.
D．It starts with immediate chemical reactin.
39．What’s the purpse f the authr?
A．T attract peple t explre the space.
B．T infrm us f a breakthrugh in fuel research.
C．T warn us the dangers f climate change.
D．T encurage us t wrk in the aviatin industry.

Thugh the FIFA Wrld Cup came t an end in December 2022 the peple f a particular city in China were busy making sccer histry f their wn.
Zib in Shandng prvince is called “the hme f sccer ball”, being the birthplace f the ancient Chinese sprt f cuju．Mdern sccer sprt started in England, but cuju wn recgnitin frm FIFA, as the earliest frm f sccer in 2004．
“Side-flicking”, “chest dwn” and “shulder stpper” are sme f the key mves acquired by cuju players．Li Weipeng,34, frm Linzi district f Zib city, is a seventh-generatin inheritr (传承人) f cuju．He has been practicing these skills fr 18 years.

It was a quiet early afternn in the library, and we librarians were enjying a chat at the library desk．Suddenly, a regular reader, wh had been reading a magazine, marched up t us, gave us an annyed “Shush (嘘)!” and went back t her seat．
Shcked int silence, we tried nt t laugh．Hw strange fr a grup f librarians t be shushed by a reader! Shuldn’t it be the ther way arund?
Well, it seems hard t explain．If yu’re a baby bmer (婴儿潮出生的人) like me, yu prbably remember libraries as places f adults’ silent reading．These days, hwever, libraries are mre like busy cmmunity centers, where being nisy t sme degree is the new nrmal, especially when kids are taking part．
I am a lud librarian．My vice is naturally n the luder side．The hundreds f prgrams I led as a children’s librarian were filled with singing, dancing, mvement exercises and cheerful readings f bks with crwds f children and their caregivers．N shushing allwed!
Grwing knwledge abut the imprtance f kids and teens learning thrugh hands-n experiences has since caused a sea change in hw public libraries cnnect with yung readers．These types f prgrams like bard games, petry reading and stry times certainly aren’t designed t be silent．
But it’s a balancing act．Nt all readers—r librarians—like the idea f a nisy library．It’s clear t me nw that n the day my clleagues and I were shushed by a reader, we shuld have been using ur “library vices” as we talked．Still, it’s unlikely that libraries will ever return t the days when they were places f silence．There’s just t much fun and learning happening．I heartily agree with my friend Rachel Payne, an early-childhd service educatr at the Brklyn Public Library, wh tld me, “When I visit a library and it is quiet, I always feel a bit sad．A library where cnversatins are happening and tables are full is a very gd thing!”
32．Hw did the authr think f the shush frm a reader?
A．Unexpectedly funny.B．Really annying.
C．Quite necessary.D．Very heartwarming.
33．What can be inferred abut tday’s libraries?
A．They serve kids nly.B．They becme quieter.
C．They are less ppular.D．They have different functins.
34．Why des the authr qute Rachel Payne?
A．T shw different vices.B．T express the authr’s idea.
C．T make the end interesting.D．T prmte a new reading methd.
35．What is the best title fr the text?
A．Hw t Act in the LibraryB．It’s OK fr a Library t Be Nisy
C．Why t Keep Silent in the LibraryD．It’s Necessary fr Librarians t Change

In the cming decade, space agencies and private space cmpanies like SpaceX are planning t build a base n the Mn and Mars．While scientists are already building rckets fr the jurney, fr lng-term human settlements n them, astrnauts will need fuel t carry ut daily tasks．Many have suggested hydrgen (氢)．But a grup f scientists is wrking n turning CO2 in the atmsphere int jet fuel．As Mars is rich in CO2 and the lunar surface has a high cncentratin f CO2, it may be a feasible slutin.
Fr nw the team f scientists at the University f Oxfrd is fcusing n making jet fuel fr the aviatin (航空) industry．As the aviatin industry releases ver 900 millin tns f CO2 every year, t battle climate change, it is necessary t turn the tide．S far aviatin scientists have tried t use ther energy resurces like electricity t fly．But such flights are limited t shrt distances．Fr lng-distance flights, there is n alternative yet.
The cncept f turning CO2 int jet fuel is nt new．Previusly, ther similar methds had t rely n expensive catalysts (催化剂) like cbalt t speed up the chemical reactin．But what Oxfrd scientists suggest is adding a cheap irn-based catalyst and hydrgen t turn CO2 int liquid fuel．As the prcess wuld nt require using fssil fuel, it will make the industry carbn neutral (碳中和的).
The scientists tested the new catalyst in a lab at 300°C and at 10 times the air pressure at sea level．The entire prcess tk 20 hurs and turned 38 percent f CO2 int new chemicals．Abut 48 percent f the chemicals were jet fuel hydrcarbn and the rest were ther by-prducts that are used in the prductin f plastic.
Prfessr Peter Edwards, a lead scientist in the prject, said the new methd culd be imprved in tw t three years t prduce jet fuel in large quantities．“This is a really exciting, ptentially revlutinary advance．Our visin is that the wrld can see that CO2 cllected can be used as an energy carrier t enable sustainable aviatin.”
36．Which wrd can best explain “feasible” underlined in paragraph 1?
A．Unique.B．Practical.C．Time-tested.D．Quick.
37．What prblem des the aviatin industry face?
A．It is suffering frm a serius fuel shrtage.
B．The traditinal jet fuel is much t expensive.
C．Climate change partly disturbs lng-distance flights.
D．Its alternative energy resurces are nt pwerful enugh.
38．What d we knw abut the Oxfrd scientists’ methd f fuel-making?
A．It is green and cst-saving.
B．It is cmplex and time-cnsuming.
C．It runs tests in natural envirnment.
D．It starts with immediate chemical reactin.
39．What’s the purpse f the authr?
A．T attract peple t explre the space.
B．T infrm us f a breakthrugh in fuel research.
C．T warn us the dangers f climate change.
D．T encurage us t wrk in the aviatin industry.
