I am sitting in a station when I overhear (无意听到) a woman seated behind me say, “What’s the best gift you ever get?”

“Well,” the young man says, “maybe the gold coin (金币) I get for graduation (毕业).”

“What?!” I think about the question. For me it is a high school graduation gift.

“Congratulations.” my grandfather says.

“Wow,” I say, “a spade (铁锹)?”

“Yes, it’s a spade,” he says, gently but surely, “stay close to the land. Don’t be afraid to dig (挖) in and get a little dirt (灰尘) on you.”

“Oh, I won’t,” I say. I laugh at how it sounds. He doesn’t.

That autumn, I go off to college, and that bright new spade stays untouched on the wall in my parents’ home. A few years later, I get an office job and have a family. And that graduation spade makes its way from my parents’ house into my own. I dig gardens, plant trees and bushes. The spade is nothing but a tool (工具). I am just glad to have it. Glad I don’t have to buy one.

Now, 40 years after I get the gift, I still dig hard into the earth, more often than ever. It’s more than(不仅仅) a friend. It’s a reminder of my family. If I get a gold coin that day, I will spend it. But a useful tool with a message about staying close to the earth? Priceless.

七、阅读与回答问题 (本题共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)

请认真阅读下面短文，并根据短文内容回答问题。

Riding a Mobike on the street, you might hear some people speaking Chinese aloud. Turning to the right, you might see a Sichuan-style restaurant. After walking into a store, you might see that Huawei smartphones are on sale (在售). But you’re not in China — you’re in Manchester in Britain. In fact, you might see similar things in many other cities. Chinese products (产品) have been going all over the world.

Chinese food became popular in western countries hundreds of years ago. To meet local people’s tastes (口味), Chinese restaurants make some changes to the dishes. “One example is the meat.” Said Liu Wen, a Chinese student who is studying in Australia. “We like to eat meat with the bone in, but people here don’t. So the local Chinese restaurants provide big pieces of meat without bones, even for fish.”

Some Chinese brands (品牌) are also becoming more popular. In many cities in Europe, many stores sell TCL televisions, Haier fridges and Lenovo computers. More than half of US-owned drones (无人机) are Chinese models. They’re not only made in China, but also designed and developed in our country.

In the past, most Western people thought Chinese products were cheap and not so good. But now, things have changed greatly. More people trust Chinese brands. “Made in China” becomes cool. “They are beautiful and offer something special that American smartphones don’t have.” an article on CNN once said.

As it is said, Chinese government (政府) has been trying its best to improve its national brands of all kinds to meet the needs of modern life.
