Fan Shenghua, is one of the inheritors（继承人） of West Lake Longjing tea roasting technique（炒茶技艺）. He has been making Longjing tea for more than forty years.

Longjing tea leaves are famous for their color, taste and shape.

“You have to touch the leaves with your hands to feel how much water is being removed（去除）,” Fan said. “If too much is removed, the leaves will break into pieces; if not enough is removed, the tea will taste bitter（苦的）.”

This traditional technique dates back to the Ming and Qing dynasties. It not only makes the tea taste good, but has also become an important part of Chinese tea culture.

These days, however, more people are using machines to do the job. “It’s easier, but the quality is not as good,” Fan said. “Machine-made tea floats longer in water and tastes bitter.”

In March this year, when President Xi Jinping visited Hangzhou, he watched Fan roast tea. Fan changed the strength and movement of his hands as he roasted leaves. Xi later said, “The things made by two palms（手掌） connot be replaced by modern technology.”

Fan is now teaching some young men. His son, a 27-year-old college graduate, is one of them. “It’s a tradition. We need to pass it down,” he said.

26. According to Paragraph 3, what will happen to tea leaves if they have too much water?

A. They will go bad quickly. B. They will break into pieces.

C. They will lose their fresh taste. D. They will have a bitter taste.

27. What does the underlined part “this traditional technique” refer to?

A. Picking tea leaves. B. Roasting tea leaves by hand.

C. Drinking tea in a traditional way. D. Growing tea plants on the mountains.

28. What does Fan think of making tea by machine?

A. It is easier than by hand. B. It has a long history in China.

C. It makes tea taste better and better. D. It becomes an important part of tea culture.

29. What can we learn from the last paragraph?

A. Fan’s son studies tea culture in college.

B. Fan will open his own tea houses in China.

C. Fan’s son is learning the tea roasting technique

D. Fan is making this technique popular worldwide.

30. What does the passage mainly want to tell us?

A. How to tell good tea apart from bad tea.

B. Longjing tea leaves are the best in the world.

C. How tea is packed and sent to many different countries.

D. Sometimes only by hand can we make the best of the things.

You may have heard the saying “The Yangtze River is China’s mother river.” It is almost 6,400 kilometers long. As the world’s third-longest river, it covers one-fifth of China’s land area. The Yangtze River Economic Zone(长江经济带) covers eleven provinces and cities, making up about forty percent of China’s total population and GDP.

On December 26, China passed the Yangtze River Protection Law, which came into force on March 1, 2021. It is the first law to protect a waterway in China.

The mother river is in great need of protection because something is wrong with it. For example, because of overfishing and water pollution, the river’s Chinese paddlefish has died out there. There’s also desertified land and soil pollution near the river.

According to the law, fishing will not be allowed in all of the Yangtze’s natural waterways, including its major tributaries(支流) and lakes. Those who are caught fishing will be fined(罚款) 50,000 to 500,000 yuan.

Digging sand will be strictly limited(限制) in the river. Many companies are digging sand along the river. However, this has led to lower water levels on the river, which has caused the river’s water to decline.

Companies and factories along the river will need to focus on green development. If their activities do harm to the waterways, they will be moved away, the law says.

31. What does the first paragraph tell us about the Yangtze River?

A. How old it is. B. Why it’s important.

C. What problems it has. D. Where it joins the sea.

32. What do we know about the Yangtze River Protection Law?

A. It was passed on March 1, 2021.

B. It came into force about ten years ago.

C. It has increased the population of the area.

D. It’s the first law to protect a waterway in China.

33. What does Paragraph 3 explain?

A. Why the river needs protection. B. How the river is being polluted.

C. When Chinese paddlefish died out D. How the river will be protected.

34. What does the underlined word “decline” in Paragraph 5 mean?

A. Disappear. B. Become worse. C. Be hard to test. D. Be easy to control.

35. According to the passage, which is true about protecting the river?

A. People can’t fish in the river’s major tributaries.

B. Digging sand will not be allowed in the river anymore.

C. Companies along the river will be moved to other places.

D. Anyone who causes pollution will be fined at least 50,000 yuan.

【答案】例文

The Story of Wang Erxiao

A long time ago, there was a young hero, who was Wang Erxiao. Please follow me to recall his story.

Wang Erxiao was born in 1929. When he was eleven years old, his parents passed away. Then he became a member of the Children’s League. Wang was clever and brave. On the morning of October 25, 1942, he was killed by enemies for protecting villagers. He was just thirteen years old.

We live in times of peace and maybe we don’t need to sacrifice ourselves. But we should remember the heroes who once fought for their country. At the same time, we should study hard to build a better society.
