Water Festival of Dai People The Water Festival is the New Year for the Dai people living in Xishuangbanna, Yunnan. It lasts 3 days in April. During the festival, Dai people wear their festival suits to dance and throw water at each other (they believe it could bring happiness and good luck). The wetter you get, the luckier you will be. Interested in these Chinese festivals? Go and experience them yourself. ( ) 21. Which festival lasts the longest time? A. The March Fair. B. The Torch Festival. C. The Water Festival. ( ) 22. Why do Yi people need to light a torch in the festival? A. Because they want to do some cooking with a torch. B. Because they think it can drive away bad luck. C. Because they think it can bring happiness and good luck. B There’s a new sport at this year’s Paris Olympics: breaking (霹雳舞), sometimes called breakdancing. Here’s what you need to know about the sport. Why is it called breaking? Breaking started in the 1970s, in New York City. At parties, dancers got up to perform during musical “breaks”, which gave breaking its name. Breaking is now an important part of hip-hop culture around the world. Who can be a breaker? Anyone can be a B-girl or a B-boy, which is what breakers call themselves. Voctor Montalvo is an American B-boy. “Breakning is great because it’s part of hip-hop culture, and in hip-hop culture, it doesn’t matter what color you are, who you are, where you’re from. It’s inclusive,” he says. “It’s all about peace, love, unity, and having fun.” What is the breakers’ language? Breakers have their own language to describe their dance style. They take turns to show their best moves in a friendly competition called “battling” (斗舞). They might spin, flip, or blance on their hands. It’s like playing with the body to music. Normally, they would dance to fast and energetic music. Do the breakers pick their own music? No! In breaking competitions, a DJ picks the music for each round. The breakers never know what songs the DJ will pick, so they have to choose their moves on the spot (场所，地点). ( ) 23. When did breaking first appear at the Olympics? A. In the 1970s. B. In 2024. C. In 2021. ( ) 24. Which is close to the underlined word “inclusive” in meaning in paragraph 3? A. 独一无二的 B. 广泛的 C. 包容性强的 ( ) 25. Which statement is NOT true according to the passage? A. An African girl can be a B-girl. B. The breakers usually dance to soft and light music. C. A DJ picks the music for the breakers in breaking competitions. ( ) 26. What is the main purpose of the passage? A. To tell us who can be breakers. B. To introduce a new sport at this year’s Paris Olympics. C. To encourage us to learn breaking. C Which is more important in your mind, looking fashionable or feeling comfortable? You may find many people choose style over comfort and some even go to extremes (极端) to follow fashion. But we should remember: being fashionable isn’t everything. It’s more important to be healthy. Some people believe that they need to be a certain size to look good. So, they start extreme diets that are not good for their health. They might not eat meals or eat too little, which can make them feel sick. Is it a healthy way to live? Also, many girls wear shoes with very high heels(鞋后跟). They might think high heels make them look taller. But these shoes can actually hurt their feet and make it hard to walk comfortably, and they can increase the risks of falls. Some even wear tight (紧的) clothes that influence blood circulation (循环), making it hard to breathe. Should we put fashion over comfort and physical health? Besides, some boys and girls spend a lot of time and money changing their hair color. The material they use is usually harmful to their health. To make their hair straight or curly, they also use tools that are hot enough to burn their hair. But using these tools too often or at very high temperatures can make the hair dry or even burnt. Is it really worth it to risk our health, spending so much time and money? So, let's think again what's really important. Is it fashion or is it our well-being? Clothes or hairstyles don't tell us anything about a person's character. Instead of spending a lot of time choosing clothes, we could use that time to do fun things with friends. And instead of following extreme diets, let's eat properly and exercise regularly(有规律地). Remember, the value of you is not decided by your appearance, but by who you are as a person. ( ) 27. Why do some people go on extreme diets according to the passage? A. Because the diets are healthy. B. Because they just want to look good. C. Because they want to save time. ( ) 28. What is the writer’s purpose of using a question in each paragraph? A. To ask for help from readers. B. To introduce the latest fashion. C. To lead readers to think about the topic. ( ) 29. What can we know from the passage? A. Wearing shoes with high heels can make people have trouble breathing. B. Changing the hair style too often has no influence on people’s health. C. Eating in the right way and doing exercise often can make people healthier. ( ) 30. Which of the following is the structure of the passage? (=paragraph 1; =paragraph 2...) 第二节 （共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分） 阅读下面短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。每个选项仅使用一次。 Learn Better With the Feynman Technique (费曼学习法) What is the Feynman Technique? Albert Einstein once said, “ 31 ” This idea is similar to the Feynman Technique, which suggests the best way to understand something is to try to explain it in a simple, clear way.

He would keep studying for another hour after a day’s work. Even the 20-minute break during the day at the bus station was not wasted. After years of hard work and preparation, Feng began making biligual (双语的) announcements during the evening rush hour, when there are the most passengers, starting in the early 2023. “I made several mistakes and felt upset when I tried it for the first time, but to my surprise, many people gave me thumbs-ups and supported me. So I feel that I should persist (坚持) and make bilingual announcements one of my goals. It’s also one of my wishes,” Feng said. After a year and a half of offering billingual announcements, Feng has many fans. Many passengers choose to take the No. 38 bus, while some parents bring their children to experience the bilingual environment. 56. How long has Feng Zhiliang been working as a bus driver? 57.
