Qingtuan is a green rice dumpling made with mugwort (艾草). Online sales platform(平台) got record-high daily sales of 13, 000 qingtuan on the first day when it came out in early March.The seasonal snack, which stands for the cultural symbols of many areas in China, is becoming a popular snack in the country. If the charm of zongzi lies in bamboo leaves and packaging, the charm of qingtuan lies in its green appearance and rich filling.Similar to moon cakes, the taste of qingtuan has broken traditional limits and is becoming a creative snack. Besides traditional sesame(芝麻) fillings, there are also strawberry, sweet potato, rose, rice, noodles and beef. The new tastes are created to meet the needs of young customers with different tastes.supermarkets and convenience stores, qingtuan makers are also exploring online methods to reach more young customers.As the geographical characteristics of qingtuan are very strong and many customers outside the Yangtze River Delta area are not familiar with it. Some of the customers there buy the snack out of curiosity. The supply chain(供应链) also faces challenges. Fresh qingtuan is the most welcome in the market, but it is sometimes unavoidable to sell them as quick-frozen products, which will naturally be refused by a certain group of customers. Therefore, to achieve higher sales, qingtuan sellers should improve their supply chains.In a word, qingtuan is becoming a common snack and has achieved innovation(创新) in terms of tastes and different kinds of markets.31．How does the writer describe qingtuan being very popular among people?A. By listing numbers.B. By telling stories.C. By comparing facts.D. By asking questions.32．Why does qingtuan have so many new tastes now?A. To draw more customers’ attention.B.

From online shopping websites.35．What is the structure of the passage?A. B. C.

When she was two and a half years old, a medical accident after a fever made her fall in the world of silence.When Zheng entered primary school, she could not understand the teachers’ words in class, so she had to follow what others were doing. But she never gave up. In class, she sat inher classmates to fill in the missing contents(内容).In 1998, Zheng was one of a small group of deaf students who took part in Gaokao. She was admitted to Wuhan University to study Chinese language and literature. Four years later, she did a lot of research about sign language and deaf people throughout her graduate study at Fudan University. But she was not satisfied. “I want to make a difference,” said Zheng, “I want to apply(应用) my research results to deaf education. Most deaf students feelinferior(自卑的) because of poor communication.” Zheng Xuan now works at the School of Educational Sciences at Chongqing Normal University.Over the past 10 years, she has trained nearly 800 special education graduates, 30 percent of whom are deaf. “I want to train a group of special education teachers with bothpolitical(政治的) integrity(正直) and ability for deaf children,” said Zheng, “Deaf people cando anything but listen! We need to help them build confidence so that they can create their own future.”36．How did Zheng Xuan become a child with impaired hearing?A. She had a car accident.B. She had a fever.C.

Zheng Xuan has managed to train teachers with both political integrity and ability.Enjoying the beauty of the sky at night is a rare thing for people in cities since light pollution ruins everything. However, photos taken by astrophotographers(天文摄影师) give people opportunities to admire the stars.Being a full-time astrophotographer, Zhang Jingyi, 27, grew up being an astronomy enthusiast(爱好者). When being asked why she chose this career, Zhang said, “We all dream of what it is like to live on planets so far from us. Isn’t it cool?”As a result of the fast development of China’s space industry, Zhang started toshoot(拍摄) rocket launching(发射) moments in recent years. “I basically followed the construction of the Tiangong space station with my camera.” She said, adding that every launch has given her a strong sense of achievement.Zhang believes that her photos are artworks that money cannot buy. “Some photographers may sell their works —some photos even reach six digits(六位数),” Zhang said, “For me, I would be satisfied if people simply like my work.” As an influencer on Sina Weibo with more than 2.5 million followers, Zhang also shares videos that she’s filmed,giving her audience a more authentic(真实的) impression of her work.Zhang said that an astrophotographer needs to be devoted to their career. For example, when taking photos of the stars, they have to film them on plateaus(高原) which are freezing at night. “These hardships are nothing if you truly love what you do,” Zhang said.Gaining experience is also important. “There isn’t a detailed guidebook for creating art,” Zhang said, “You have to learn from your own works. Gradually, you can add personal thoughts into the filming process and witness your work improving.”41．What led Zhang to become an astrophotographer?A. Her curiosity about space.B. A beautiful photo she saw on Weibo.C. Fewer chances for citizens to admire the stars.D. The development of China’s space industry.42．What did Zhang begin to shoot in recent years?A. People.B. Scenery.C. Wildlife.D. Rocket launching 43．What does Zhang value about her photos?A. How much they can sell for.B. The media’s comments on them.C. The public’s recognition(认可) of them.D. The social influence they have.44．What does Zhang think is necessary for a successful astrophotographer?A. Expensive equipment.B. A detailed guidebook.C. Devotion and learning ability.D. A formal education in photography. 45．What might be the best title of the passage?A. Achieve her dreams through camerasB. Enjoy the beauty of the skyC. How to create artD. Photos are valuable works of art四、填空题46．Connecting with NatureHow do you feel when you hear birds singing freely in the trees? What’s your feeling when you see butterflies dancing slowly and lightly in the wind? Whether you love researching the outdoors or watching far away, getting close to nature can keep your mindaway from your worries and make you feel relaxed.What is nature?Nature means the world around us that is not man-made, including birds, mountains, trees, the sea and the stars. It’s a force and can control things like weather. We can find nature wherever we are and wherever we go—beaches, gardens, parks, rivers, and even unexpected places like cracks(裂缝) in the stones.Why does nature make us feel good?Spending time in nature makes our lives peaceful, joyful and wonderful. It takes us outdoors, gets us active and lets us care more about the environment. Even a little gift of nature can make us feel free and hopeful, such as breathing in fresh air, listening to the wind in the trees or standing at a mountain. Ralphie, who is 10, likes being close to nature on a bike with his family. He says, “It makes us feel happy and takes our mind off things because we have to pay attention. We are away from traffic and we hear more birdsong and see more wild animals.”How can we feel closer to nature?Feeling closer to nature is easy. We can build a connection with nature wherever we are using our senses. Try listening closely to birdsong, smelling flowers and feeling sand between our fingers. Paint a picture and take photos of the natural places that we like best. They may help us feel closer to the natural world. It’s important to try and connect with nature, notice its beauty and how it makes us feel.“Ladies, don’t let anyone ever tell you you’re past your prime(黄金期),” said 60-year-old Michelle Yeoh at the Academy Awards ceremony(奥斯卡颁奖礼) as she received her Best Actress Award.①_________ March 12 local time, the Malaysian-born actress made history by becoming the first Asian woman ②_________ (win) this Oscar award. She defeated great competitors, including two-time winner Cate Blanchett and five-timenominee(候选人)Michelle Williams for her ③_________ (wonder) performances in the film Everything Everywhere All at Once ( 《瞬息全宇宙》) . In the film, she plays an ordinary Asian mother who struggles with daily things but later finds ④_________ (confident) andvalue in the multiverse (多元宇宙).Yeoh started acting at 22 when she played a bullied girl in her first film, after which she picked ⑤_________ harder road and more important roles by becoming an action heroine. In the ⑥_________ (high) competitive Hong Kong film industry in the 1980s and 1990s, she fought her way up by doing crazy stunts(特技)by herself —jumping from bridges,⑦_________ (fly) into the air and crashing through glass.But that’s just the start, she didn’t just stay in Hong Kong or as an action star. She broke into Hollywood and made more blockbusters (票房大片) as well as artistic movies.Yeoh ⑧_________ (respect) for her lengthy career. That’s because while most actresses of her age have stopped working ⑨_________ all kinds of reasons, she never gave up. Yeoh has faced fewer ⑩_________ (act) chances too as she has aged. “It probably was at a time when I thought, ‘Hey, come on, girl. You had a really, really good run.’ Then along came the best gift: Everything Everywhere All at Once.” She said.五、写作题48．学会表达自我，对培养青少年心理健康具有重大意义。

（10分）Baozi is one of the common Chinese foods for breakfast. Whowould have thought that this simple meal would become a leadingcharacter in a film, and even win an Oscar?On February 24, 2019, the short film Bao won the Oscar for Best Animated Short Film. In the film, a small baozi comes to life and becomes the “son” of a lonely Chinese woman in an immigrant(移民) family in Canada.Domee Shi, Pixar’s first Chinese-canadian woman director, got the idea from her own experience. When Shi grew up, she was busy working and spent little time with her mother.Bao explores the life of an empty-nest Chinese Canadian mother who feels lonely after her son leaves home to go for his own life.In the film, many details show the way the Chinese woman loves her “son”. She prepares delicious food, cleans up the house carefully and always buys him snacks. These details are true to the strong and protective love of Chinese parents for their childrenTraditionally, Ch inese parents don’t say ‘I love you’ to their kids. They express it with food or by fussing(小题大做) over them. “I didn’t use dialogue in the film because I wanted it to be a story that spoke to everyone around the world.” said Shi at an interview.Moreover, this film can serve as a bridge to help parents and children better understand each other and learn how to express love.Answer the following questions. (No more than seven words)46. What becomes a leading character in the film Bao?________________________________________________________________47. In which country does the story in the film happen?________________________________________________________________48. How does the mother feel after her son leaves home for his own life?________________________________________________________________49.

It is a sweet job for a sweet tooth. However, the person needs to be good at maths. Chocolate has a melting (融化) point close to our body temperature. For that reason, chocolate melts easily in hot weather. You might think the advertisement from Cambridge University is funny, but if there is really a “doctor of chocolate”, he or she will help people a lot._________One logo (商标) isn’t too expensive to print because it doesn’t need much ink, but printing a large number of logos could cost a lot. In order to save money and energy, an American design company made small changes to some famous brands, such as Nike, McDonald’s and Starbucks, to cut the cost. The design company remained the main body of these logos, but left an empty space inside. The logos look almost the same, but in this way, the famous brands could save 39 percent of the ink during the printing. Let’s hope other companies will take this advice. The way will save them money and use less energy, too.Funny menu for childrenDining out with children can be an unpleasant experience for most parents, because kids are always runninground the whole restaurant, saying “I don’t know what I want” or “I’m not hungry.” But now, a Maryland restaurant has created the “Kid Friendlies” menu. It translates children’s words into meals to help parents order for their kids. A father said, “As a dad, I think this is on the money.” Here is the menu.Kid Friendlies“I don’t know.” - - - Triple Layer PB&J“I don’t care.” - - - Grilled Peanut Butter & BananaSandwich“I am not hungry.” - - - Basket of Chicken Tenders“I don’t want that.” - - - Kids Fries“What?” - - - Cheese Quesadilla31.

This thing will never really happen, but a new study shows that plants can make sounds when they are stressed.②Researchers from Tel Aviv University in Israel did the study. They used ultrasonic microphones (超声波麦克风) to record the sounds of tomato plants in boxes.③Three groups of plants were listened to: One group wasn’t watered for five days, another group had the stems (茎) cut off, and the third group was untouched. It turned out that the first two groups made sounds 30 to 50 times per hour, while the untouched group only made the sound once per hour. “When tomatoes are not stressed at all, they are very quiet,” Hadany from the team told CNN.④The researchers didn’t know how the sounds were made, but they believed the noise came from the breaking of air bubbles (泡) in the plants. This meant the noise produced by the plants was not on purpose.⑤Animals and insects may benefit (受益) from the sound. For example, the sound can tell a butterfly that the plant is under stress and not a proper place to lay eggs on. An animal that wants to eat a plant could also use the sounds to decide what to do, according to Science Focus.⑥After the experiment, the researchers listened to other plants such as rice, corn and grapes, and found they also made more sounds when stressed. Researchers said the study can help farmers in the future, as they can better take care of farm by “hearing” how plants feel.36. According to the experiment, we know that _______.A. the plants produced the noise on purposeB. the plants which had the stems cut off were very quietC. air bubbles in the plants broke and made the noiseD. the untouched group made more sounds than the other two groups37. How can animals and insects benefit from the sound of plants?A. To communicate by themselves.B. To break the air bubbles.C. To listen to other plants.D. To make right decisions.38. The study may help farmers to _______ in the future.A. improve the growth of plantsB. protect the environmentC. tell the weatherD. decide what to plant39. Which of the following is the structure of the passage?A. ①|②③④|⑤⑥B. ①②|③④⑤|⑥C. ①②|③④|⑤⑥D. ①②③|④⑤|⑥40. What’s the main idea of the passage?A. Plants that make sounds are tasty.B. Plants can show feelings by sounds.C. Researchers listen to plants.D. Animals benefit from the sounds.DHow would you like to build a time machine? Paper, sticks, glue and string are all you need. Put them together to build a kite. A kite connects you to the past.No one knows who flew the first kite. It was probably someone in China or perhaps Indonesia. Indonesian fishermen hung fishhooks on kites and sent them out to sea to catch fish. Starting 2,000 years ago, Chinese farmers flew kites to welcome the New Year and bring good luck to Earth.In China, people also used kites during the war. One Chinese story tells how people put noise makers on kites and flew them at night over the enemy camp. The enemies were afraid of the noise and ran away.About 1,300 years ago, Chinese travelers took kites to Japan. Soon kites filled the skies there. Kites reached Thailand about 700 years ago. During floods, Thai farmers flew kites over their fields. They hoped the kites would drive away the clouds and stop the rain. Over time, kites flew their way out of Asia. Today more and more people are crazy about flying kites. They are a passion all over the world. Kite fans meet at festivals in many parts of the world and have great fun together.Over the years kites have also helped people understand the natural world. For example, in 1906, cameras hanging from kites took pictures of San Francisco, California after an earthquake. The photos helped people plan what to do. Kites also helped inventors find out how to make airplanes. The Wright brothers studied how kites flew, which helped them make the first successful airplane.Since the ancient Chinese first set their kites into the air, people have loved flying kites. Kites give us ways to celebrate, relax and explore. So go fly a kite! Enjoy the feeling that kite flyers have felt for centuries.41. In which countries were kites used to make good wishes?A. China and Japan.B. China and Thailand.C. Japan and Indonesia.D. Thailand and Indonesia.42. According to the Chinese story, the kites were used to ________.A. make the enemies leave in fearB. celebrate victories during the war C stop the enemies from sleeping well D. carry people to fight against the enemies 43.

By listing numbers.C. By comparing facts.D. By giving examples.,.45. What’s the purpose of this passage?A. To show people how to fly kites.B. To explain how kites are used in science.C.
