Have you ever got such a question in your mind？Although there have been so many new inventions and tools today, why are Chinese people still using chopsticks after they were invented about 3,000 41 ago ?
Chopsticks were invented and used by the 42 during the Zhou Dynasty. They are 43 made of bamboo, plastic, wood or steel. They were not used as eating tools at first. They were probably first used for 44 , like stirring (搅动) the fire or serving food in the kitchen. But gradually people found it 45 to use chopsticks to eat. So chopsticks began to be used as eating tools. I can imagine how 46 a westerner can feel when he first sees someone eat with chopsticks. The same is true when we Chinese people first see westerners using fork and knife to eat. This is the cultural difference.
And 47 you take a closer look at the chopsticks, you will find that the chopsticks are usually round of one end and square of the other end. The round end stands for the sky. The square end stands for the 48 . And this is the Chinese understanding of the relationship between man and the world. Sky is up, earth is down, and people are in the middle.
Now, we may know why Chinese people 49 to use chopsticks. Because chopsticks are not only useful for eating and cooking but also include deep cultural connotations (内涵). 50 have been lasting for centuries. And we believe that they will last even more time into the future.

A
China is a country with rich culture, beautiful landscapes as well as a long history of over 5,000 years. What could best represent (代表) China in your mind? Here are some of the reviews from teenagers around the world.
The Great Wall is the symbol of China in my eyes. It is about 21,000 kilometers long and over 2,000 years old. There is a famous Chinese saying, “He who does not reach the Great Wall is not a true man.” I really hope I can go and enjoy the fantastic view in the future!
——Xinran, Beijing

porcelain
China is a country. But the word china also means porcelain. I think porcelain is the symbol of China. In the past, Chinese porcelain was sold abroad. China was called "the nation of porcelain”. The invention of porcelain is a great contribution (贡献) to the world.
——Mark, San Francisco

Dumplings, of course! I found them more delicious than anything I’d ever tasted when I had a mutton dumpling for the first time during the Beijing Winter Olympics. Dumplings represent happiness and reunion. Families in China always get together and make dumplings during festivals. When they make dumplings, they talk and laugh.
——Bianca, Mexico City

What makes a perfect symbol of China? My answer is hanfu because it shows the beauty of our culture to the world. This ancient Chinese style of clothing is usually made of silk, cotton or linen.

Benefiting from the growing use of social media (媒体), many young Chinese post photos and videos of themselves dressing in hanfu to show their cultural confidence worldwide.

Developed by US company OpenAI, ChatGPT, a powerful tool that can write stories and emails, translate languages, and answer all kinds of questions, has swept the education world in the past months. According to a US survey of more than 1,000 students, over 89% of them have used ChatGPT to help with homework. And this has caused argument in education.
Some schools in the US and France have banned the use of ChatGPT. For example, New York City public schools didn’t allow students to use ChatGPT on their electronic devices(设备). The move comes out of two worries. Firstly, ChatGPT could make it easier for students to cheat on homework. Secondly, it may spread incorrect information.
Some experts says that it doesn’t develop critical-thinking(批判性思维) and problem-solving skills which are necessary for lifelong success. Besides bans, teachers are making changes to their classes to block the use of ChatGPT. Some teachers in the US try to include more speaking exams and handwritten papers instead of typed ones.
But not all educators say “no” to ChatGPT. Some Canadian universities are making rules on its use. They have no plans to completely ban the tool.
Bhaskar Vira, pro-vice-chancellor (副校长) at the university of Cambridge, said that bans on AI software like ChatGPT are not wise. “We have to know that AI is a tool people will use,” he said, “What we need to do is to change our learning, teaching and examinations. That way we can have honesty while recognizing the use of the tool.”
56．How does the writer start this passage?
A．By showing an example B．By giving numbers
C．By telling a story D．By comparing some facts
57．The underlined word banned in Paragraph 3 means______________.
A．accepted B．stopped
C．allowed D．offered
58．Why have some schools in the US and France banned ChatGPT?
① Because ChatGPT is a very powerful tool.
② Because ChatGPT may help students cheat.
③ Because ChatGPT may spread wrong information.
④ Because ChatGPT will change their learning and teaching.
A. ①③ B. ②④ C. ①④ D. ②③
59．From the passage, we can infer (推断) that_____________.
A．ChatGPT is so intelligent that nothing it provides is incorrect and false
B．it’s easier for students to cheat in typed reports than in speaking exams
C．most students can achieve lifelong success without problem-solving skills
D．Bhaskar Vira believes that it’s wise to make some changes to use AI dishonestly
60．What is the main idea of the passage?
A．ChatGPT helps many students with their homework.
B．Advantages and disadvantages of ChatGPT.
C．Educators’ different opinions and moves on ChatGPT.
D．ChatGPT is banned in the education world.

A Meaningful and Unforgettable Event
An online exchange program between students in Shenzhen and Heidelberg, Germany was held last Monday. It provided the students from both cities with a chance to practice spoken English while improving their understanding of different cultures.
To start with, 48 Chinese students and 17 German students have group discussions. They were designing a plan for a one-week international student exchange program between them.
What subjects should the visiting students learn? What places in and outside the city are they recommended to visit? What food should they try? Through heated discussions, the students knew about the similarity and differences of a school in another country. They also learned about cultural differences between the two countries.
“I managed to overcome shyness when communicating with the German teenagers,” said Guan Zimeng, a student from Shenzhen. “It’s an experience that I’ll always remember.”
Li Shiqi, another student, shared a common opinion. “This program has given us a chance to exchange our views with students in another country. I’ve learned a lot.”

An Unforgettable Class
Looking back at my junior high school life, one of my most unforgettable lesson is a lesson on cultural difference. I still remember it was on March 12th. Fifteen Chinese students, including me, attended the class with 15 Italian students in our school museum. Our teachers led us into a discuss about how ancient people get food from plants. It is unforgettable. I was shocked to find that there were such big differences between our ancestors and theirs. And I will always remember how knowledgeable the Italian students were. They even know much about Chinese history. （原因）
It is a meaningful lesson as I’ve learnt not only different cultures but also cross-cultural communication and global vision.

An Unforgettable Class
Looking back at my junior high school life, one of my most unforgettable classes is a PE class in Grade 9. Our class were learning to run quickly on the playground. My classmate Peter ran slowly so I laughed at him. He got upset. Our teacher saw that and told us to do rope skipping. He knew I was bad at it. Then I fell and was laughed at by others. I almost cried. The teacher just helped me realized how mean I was to Peter in a wise and unforgettable way. （事件）
From that lesson not only did I learn to treat others kindly, but also learn to solve problems wisely.

Good afternoon, parents and teachers. Thank you for attending this meeting.
Last weekend, one of our students went to hospital.The student played computer games on the Internet all day Saturday without stopping to drink, eat or sleep. Finally, he became very ill.
Some students play computer games for too long.This is a serious problem. In the past, students used to play outside more often,but now they spend more time in front of computers. This is bad for their health.
Tomorrow we’ll have some experts here to talk to the students about the bad effects of playing computer games. They’ll also give some advice on how to use computers for study.
I hope we can all work together to stop students from spending too much time playing computer games.Thank you for your time.

Good morning, boys and girls. I believe everyone is excited about going on the educational exchange. You’re going to experience life in London and learn about British culture. All of you will set off by air on Saturday, the 6th of November. You must arrive at the airport before 6 am that day.
For the next two weeks in London, you’re going to stay with your host families. They’ve already planned some weekend activities for you. On weekdays, you’re going to have classes at Woodpark School. Please remember, you should be polite at all times. You should respect local culture. When you come back, you’re going to write a report on the educational exchange, so you’re supposed to bring a camera with you.
