1、 What does it mean to be a Chinese? According to a survey, more than 40% of Chinese people believe the Chinese love the country and their families. 1. About one-third of foreign people describe the Chinese as hard-working and creative people. From 1931 to 1945, millions of soldiers lost their lives in the war against Japanese aggression. 2. After 1949, plenty of people worked day and night for the development of China.
While the love of the country joins the people together, family plays a big role in traditional Chinese culture. Aaron Cedillo, an English teacher in Beijing, said, “My Chinese friends get married and have babies when they turn a certain age. 3. 他们选择或者放弃一份工作时，首先考虑的是家人。”
Besides, the characters of being hard-working and creative also come to light. Sheryl, a Malaysian student at Zhejiang University, said Chinese people were hard-working when she saw some men send the package. She said, “4. 似乎那些人从不需要休息。” A foreign university professor has found Chinese students in the lab could always come up with new ideas. “I’m really surprised,” he said. 5. The past 70 years saw China’s rapid rise to become an important country in the world. During the process, the international community, including Chinese people themselves, has got a clearer understanding of Chinese traits(品质).

26、Pictures That Don’t Last
“YEARS ago when I was at the Grand Canyon, I remember someone coming up to the canyon’s edge, taking a shot with their camera and then walking away, like ‘got it – done’, barely even glancing at the magnificent (壮观的) scene sprawling (展开) in front of them,” Linda Henkel, a scientist at Fairfield University, US told Live Science.
Henkel was surprised by how obsessed (着迷的) people are with taking pictures these days – before dinner, during friends’ birthday parties, on museum tours and so on. You know people just like that, don’t you?
They keep taking pictures because they think that it helps record the moment, but as Henkel’s latest study has just found out, this obsession may prevent their brains from remembering what actually happened, reported The Guardian.
In her study, Henkel led a group of college students around a museum and asked them to simply observe 15 objects and to photograph 15 others. The next day the students’ memory of the tour was tested, and the results showed that they were less accurate in recognizing the objects and they remembered fewer details about them if they photographed them.
“When people rely on technology to remember for them – counting on the camera to record the event and thus not needing to attend to it fully themselves, it can have a negative effect on how well they remember their experiences,” Henkel explained.
But there is also an exception: if students zoomed (缩放) in to photograph part of an object, their memory actually improved, and those who focused the lens (镜头) on a specific area could even recall parts that weren’t in the frame.
So basically, this study is saying that constantly taking pictures can harm your memory. But shouldn’t reviewing pictures we have taken help wake up our memories? This is true, but only if we spend enough time doing it.
“In order to remember, we have to access（接近）and interact with the photos, rather than just amassing them,” Henkel told The Telegraph. However, previous research has shown that most people never take the time to look over their digital pictures simply because there are too many of them and they aren’t usually very organized on their computers.
【1】The author mentioned Henkel’s trip to the Grand Canyon at the beginning to ______.
A. complain about some tourists’ bad habits
B. give suggestions on how to enjoy one’s tour
C. describe the great view of the Grand Canyon
D. point out people’s obsession with taking pictures
【2】Which of the following statements about Henkel’s study is TRUE?
A. Reviewing pictures always helps people bring back memories.
B. Taking pictures in a museum tour helps students recognize objects better.
C. Pictures that focus on the details of objects are likely to improve people’s memories.
D. People should spend more time studying real objects than taking pictures of them.
【3】The underlined word “amassing” in the last paragraph probably means ______.
A. displaying B. collecting
C. introducing D. remembering
【4】What is the article mainly about?
A. Some skills to learn for taking pictures.
B. People’s obsession with taking pictures and its influence.
C. How pictures remind us of our past.
D. How to deal with pictures after taking trips.
27、A tree is a plant with a tall woody trunk. Like all plants, trees need air, water and sunlight to live and grow.
A tree has a long, woody trunk covered in bark (树皮). The trunk supports the branches, lifting them high above the ground. Bark is dead and protects the living trunk inside. The trunk grows thicker and taller each year.
Trees have many branches. Tree branches spread out in all directions towards sunlight. More and more branches grow each year.
Leaves grow on the branches. The leaves cover the tree in a canopy of green. Leaves use the sun’s energy to make food for the whole tree.
The tree has roots under the ground. Roots absorb water and nutrients from the soil. Trees need water to live and grow. The roots also hold the tree firm when the wind blows.
In cold climates most broadleaf trees lose their leaves in winter. The short cold days cause the leaves fall. Trees that lose their leaves in winter are called deciduous trees.
In spring, as the weather warms up, the tree buds and new leaves grow. The tree may also flower. In summer, the tree grows. A green covering of leaves provides food for the whole tree. In autumn, as the weather begins to cool and the days grow shorter, the food moves from the leaves to the trunk and roots. Leaves lose their green colour and become dry. When the leaves are dead, they fall from the tree. During winter a deciduous tree stops growing. The tree is still alive. It is waiting for warm temperatures before it starts to grow again.
Many animals live in trees. Trees provide food and shelter for monkeys, squirrels, birds and insects.
Most monkeys find food and shelter in trees. They can also escape from land-based predators to their homes above the ground. Monkeys are well-adapted to life in the trees. Their tails help them to climb and jump from branch to branch. Many small mammals live in trees. Trees provide shelter from wind, rain and other animal.
Many birds live their lives in trees. They build their nests in the branches or hollows of trees. Trees provide fruit, nectar and seeds for birds to eat.
Millions of insects live in trees. Many types of beetles, ants and butterflies depend on trees for food and shelter.
【1】What’s the use of the roots of a tree?
① To protect the living trunk. ②To get nutrients. ③ To absorb water.
④To cover the tree in a canopy of green. ⑤ to hold the tree firm.
A. ①②③ B. ①④⑤ C. ②③⑤ D. ③④⑤
【2】Why the leaves fall from the tree in autumn?
A. Because they can grow again after winter.
B. Because they are short of food, and then die.
C. Because the leaves lose their green colour.
D. Because birds use them to build their nests.
【3】The last few paragraphs tell us that _________________________.
A. many animals live on trees B. there are animals in trees
C. trees provide shelter for man D. trees are still alive in winter
【4】Which of the following statements is true?
A. Trees like to grow towards sunlight. B. Branches hold the tree when it’s windy.
