Now, it has also won global recognition as a shared cultural treasure of mankind.On Nov. 29, Chinese traditional tea processing skills and their related social practices were added to the UNESCO intangible cultural heritage (非物质文化遗产) list. Since ancient times, Chinese people have been planting, picking, making and drinking tea.More importantly, China’s tea culture has formed Chinese customs. It is Chinese traditional custom that a host should welcome visiting guests with boiled tea. A poem by Song poet Du Lei reads, “I offer tea, not wine, to a guest on a cold night. When water boils on the stove, fire burns with flame bright.”Boiling tea is one of the oldest Chinese tea brewing methods, dating back to the Tang Dynasty (618—907). Tea leaves were boiled for a long time and sometimes they were cooked together with different kinds of herbs and fruits. During this process, people can enjoy a quiet time. Later in the Ming Dynasty (1368—1644), a faster and more convenient method become more popular—steeping (冲泡).________. On the app Xiaohongshu, or Little Red Book, there are over 40,000 posts on the topic of “stove-boiled tea” (围炉煮茶). They lightly roast tea leaves before boiling them in a teapot on a stove. People sit around the stove in a natural setting and have snacks with their hot tea. Some also wear traditional hanfu as if it could take them back to those ancient times. Through “stove-boiled tea”, people can taste a slower life and find their inner peace. As is written in one Xiaohongshu post, “It is very relaxing to drink hot tea, feel the fall breeze, and chat with best friends.”34．The writer introduces the topic by ________.A．asking questions B．listing numbersC．telling stories D．stating facts35．We can learn from the third paragraph that ________.A．Du Lei is a great poet in Tang-DynastyB．“stove-boiled tea” becomes popular againC．Chinese tea culture has spread to western countriesD．it is an old tradition to welcome guests with boiled tea36．The best sentence to fill in the blank in the last paragraph is “________”.A．Let’s try the old method of boiling tea in spare timeB．These days, the old method is making a comebackC．Chinese invented many different ways of drinking teaD．Therefore, it is a good choice to drink tea with friends37．The writer writes this passage to ________.A．introduce a popular way of making tea, “stove-boiled tea”B．invite more and more people around the world to visit ChinaC．call on the young to learn more about Chinese traditional teaD．show how popular and interesting the app Xiaohongshu is  CIn the future we may not need to have money in our pockets. Is life easier when people don’t need to carry any money at all? Is money heavy to carry? Is it safe to carry money? Maybe in the future each of us will have only one small credit card （信用卡）. We will use it to buy all the things easily. Of course, we may still have some of the same problems with cards we now have with money. For example, we always lose money. Maybe we will lose the cards. Maybe someone will take the cards. Someone may make a card that looks like our cards. Since we can’t buy anything without our cards, the credit cards may be no better than money. Is there something easier to use than credit cards? Each of us has a thumbprint （拇指指纹）. No two thumbprints are the same. Maybe someday the government will keep people’s thumbprints with a number. When you want to buy something, you will put your thumb on a machine or a computer. Each store or business will possess one. Everyone’s thumbprints will be in the computer. It will be hard to lose our thumbprints! It will be hard for someone to steal it or to make one like it.38．The writer probably agrees that credit cards are ________ to carry than money.A．heavier B．more difficult C．easier D．larger39．What may be a problem with credit cards in the future?A．We can’t use the cards easily. B．We won’t be able to make enough cards.C．We may not know how to use the cards. D．We may sometimes lose the cards.40．The underlined word “possess” probably means “________” in English.A．have B．lend C．sell D．spend41．In the writer’s opinion, it’ll be the best way to buy things with ________ in the future.A．money B．credit cards C．thumbprints D．phones  DLitterati is the name of a company that’s trying to make the world a cleaner place and doing a fine job of it. It has created an app that people can use to upload information about the litter they collect outside, such as its appearance, material and location. Shared online, this information helps to build a global data (数据) base of “litter maps”, which can influence government management and packaging design.Jeff Kirschner is the inventor of Litterati app. He came up with the idea while walking in a northern California forest with his four-year-old daughter, who noticed a plastic kitty litter box in a river. Young as she was, she expressed her worries about the box being somewhere that it wasn’t supposed to be. This knowledge stays with Kirschner as adults -The litter problem is so huge: What’s a single person supposed to do?That’s where Kirschner thinks an app can help. “Society’s failure to solve the litter problem has not been from lacking (缺乏) government support. There have been public service announcements, neighborhood litter walks and coastal cleanups. And these activities successfully raise public knowledge of pollution,” said Kirschner. But he believes one thing is missing from the discussion-online data-and if these are added in, people can start solving the problem in a better way.Uploading pictures to an app shows users that they’re not the only ones picking up litter from public places. And the data has been gathered rapidly, telling a story that helps people understand who picked up what, where and when. “In San Francisco, the Litterati app was able to discover and map more than 5,000 pieces of rubbish in order to find out how much was produced by cigarettes exactly. Using this information, the city successfully doubled an existing cigarette sales tax (香烟销售税). In the Netherlands, Litterati’s data helped push brand Anta Flu to repackage its hard candies in paper, rather than non-recyclable plastic,” said Kirschner.Litterati shows a positive we-can-do-it attitude. “Its goal isn’t to shame. It’s to provide a real way to solve the litter problem and encourage people to be part of the project,” explained Kirschner.42．The underlined word “upload” in Paragraph I probably means ________in Chinese.A．搜寻 B．上传 C．储存 D．处理43．What does Kirschner think has caused failure to solve the liter problem?A．Lack of online data about litter.B．The public’s refusal of community action.C．Absence of government support.D．People’s poor environmental knowledge.44．What can people do with Litterati app?A．They can know where to drop litter.B．They can invite more people to join them.C．They can find an area littered with rubbish.D．They can help people sort litter for recycling.45．Why did Kirschner give the examples in Paragraph 4?A．To encourage a wider use of the app.B．To introduce the function of the app.C．To voice his views on managing the appD．To show the practical advantage of the app.  第II卷（非选择题 共60分）第II卷共36小题，请将答案按要求写在答题卡上。四、词汇（本题共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分）请根据括号中的中文提示、英文释义或句意，写出句中所缺单词，使句子通顺。46．Our government has paid more attention to the problem about food ________ (安全) .47．All of us went and cleaned up the old people’s home ________ (除……之外) Eric.

But Arthur Han, an office worker, says that now is the best time to eat at McDonald’s in China because they are paying more attention to food safety at the moment. Mr Han says he hardly ever eats at McDonald’s, whose image (形象) for cleanliness and quality was shaken last month by a television report. It showed McDonald’s and several other western fast-food companies of using a supplier (供应商) that sold expired meat. McDonald’s said this month something worst happened. Shanghai government closed down the factory of Shanghai Husi Food Co., which was the supplier of McDonald’s. It badly influenced the sales of McDonald’s. Yum said its brands KFC and Pizza Hut also saw sales drop at first, adding that if the falling continues, it could have a really bad effect. But experts say that, whatever the effect on western brands, it is difficult for local companies to do better in fast food production. “Food safety is not just something that affects McDonald’s and KFC, they are just the biggest problem for all the food companies,” says Torsten Stocker, an officer from a famous food company. “If it’s a problem they are facing, why would others be any different?”“Many diners (就餐者) seem to realize that western brands are not the only ones with a problem,” Wang Lan, a young office worker, eating lunch at a local fast-food, said this week. As for food safety, he said the best way was not to pay attention to it. 阅读短文, 根据短文内容回答问题。76．What does Arthur Han think of eating at McDonald’s in China now?________________________________77．How often does Mr Han eat at McDonald’s?________________________________78．What badly influenced the sales of McDonald’s?________________________________79．Who said that local companies might not do better in fast food production?________________________________80．What did Wang Lan think of fast food safety?________________________________  八、书面表达（本题满分20分）81．假设你是Sarah。你校英文报近期正在开展“保护环境，从我做起”的主题活动，要求每位同学写一份倡议书，号召全体师生从小事做起，维护我们赖以生存的环境。请你根据下面的图示，写一份英文倡议书。Importance of the environmentWays to protect it1.
