Before arriving in China,I had read lots of books about China.I found it was quite
different from the UK
However,I didn't decide to leam Chinese because I was not confident enough to learn
the most difficult language in the world.Besides,once I moved to China,I lived in
Shanghai,an international city where many people speak English as a second language.
Therefore.I thought English would be enough.
But after a year in China,I found many expats (speak Chinese.I felt
uncomfortable because I couldn't speak the most basic Chinese.To deal with the
challenge.I decided to begin my language journey.
In the two years since starting to learn,I have made great progress.Now,I am able to
talk in Chinese on many topics.Learning to speak Chinese isn't as difficult as I once
expected.When I speak to Chinese people in Chinese,they almost always understand me.
The most challenging thing is listening since Chinese people talk at such a speed.I can't
always understand what's been said,but my weekly online language exchanges help with
this.Leaming Chinese has taken a lot of hard work,but there is still a long way to go before
I reach my goal of fluency ()Learning Chinese not only helps me in day-to-day life,
but deepens my cultural understanding of such a great country.
24.What's the most difficult language in the world in the writer's opinion?
A.Chinese.

25.Why didn't the writer feel comfortable in Ching a year later?

Can plants communicate?Modern research has found something amazing:they do
talk with each other.
It has been known for some time that plants use chemicals to communicate with each
other.This happens when a plant gets attacked (by insects.The plant gives out
chemicals from the leaves that are being eaten.This is like a call for help:"I'm being
attacked!"When another plant gets the chemicals,it starts to give out its own different
chemicals.Some of these chemicals drive insects away.Others attract the wasps()
which kill the insects that are eating the plants.Scientists hope to learn more about this
plant warning system,so that we can use it to grow more crops.
More surprisingly,plants also use sound to communicate.People can't hear these
sounds.Some plants make noises with their roots.Corn and chili plants do this.Some trees
make clicking noises when there is not enough water.
Most surprisingly of all,plants have an amazing system of communication that can
link nearly every plant in a forest.Scientists call this system the "wood wide web".The
wood wide web is linked underground by fungi )It links the roots of different plants
to each other.It is in some ways similar to the Internet we use.Using the wood wide web,
plants can share information and even food with each other.However,it has bad impacts.
Plants may use it to steal food from each other,or spread chemicals to attack other plants.
Perhaps one day scientists will learn how to create a"firewall"to help prevent these attacks
within the wood wide web.

阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有
一项为多余选项。
Recently,there is a discussion among students about whether it is right for strangers
to educate others'kids in public places.32
"It's not OK for strangers to educate the children of others,"says Cui Luoyao,a 14-
year-old girl from Beijing.Sometimes,children can be naughty and might shout in public
But from the child's point of view,a stranger shouting at them can be scary and parents
can also feel stressed when their children disturb ()other passengers,but they might
not know what to do.33So as strangers,it's best to kindly remind parents to look
after their kids and check if they are hungry or unwell.
"34 But I do understand why sometimes strangers choose to educate other's
kids.I believe many passengers'dislike children'just because they really can't stand their
parents'attitude.What is really scary is that parents turn a blind eye to their children's
mistakes,use 'he is just a kid'as an excuse and force others to tolerate (their children,"
says He Liyan,a 14-year-old boy from Jiangsu.
The girl named Zhang Kexin from Beijing holds the opinion that though we may be
strangers,we should help teach and care for noisy and crying children.Children are an
important part of human society and need attention and care.35
Helping kids learn how to get along with others and behave properly in public places
is important for them to fit in well with others.Staying calm and patient when
communicating with children sets a good example for them to follow.
A.Parents should be the ones teaching their children how to behave properly
B.Sometimes children cry because they can't express their needs well.
C.By offering support and guidance can we make society better for everyone.
D.Here are some opinions from students
E.We should be brave enough

Can plants communicate?Modern research has found something amazing:they do
talk with each other.
It has been known for some time that plants use chemicals to communicate with each
other.This happens when a plant gets attacked()by insects.The plant gives out
chemicals from the leaves that are being eaten.This is like a call for help:"I'm being
attacked!"When another plant gets the chemicals,it starts to give out its own different
chemicals.Some of these chemicals drive insects away.Others attract the wasps (
which kill the insects that are eating the plants.Scientists hope to learn more about this
plant warning system,so that we can use it to grow more crops.
More surprisingly,plants also use sound to communicate.People can't hear these
sounds.Some plants make noises with their roots.Corn and chili plants do this.Some trees
make clicking noises when there is not enough water.
Most surprisingly of all,plants have an amazing system of communication that can
link nearly every plant in a forest.Scientists call this system the "wood wide web".The
wood wide web is linked underground by fungi ()It links the roots of different plants
to each other.It is in some ways similar to the Internet we use.Using the wood wide web,
plants can share information and even food with each other.However,it has bad impacts.
Plants may use it to steal food from each other,or spread chemicals to attack other plants.
Perhaps one day scientists will learn how to create a"firewall"to help prevent these attacks
within the wood wide web

to educate others'kids in public places.32
"It's not OK for strangers to educate the children of others,"says Cui Luoyao,a 14-
year-old girl from Beijing.Sometimes,children can be naughty and might shout in public.
But from the child's point of view,a stranger shouting at them can be scary and parents
can also feel stressed when their children disturb (other passengers,but they might
not know what to do.33So as strangers,it's best to kindly remind parents to look
after their kids and check if they are hungry or unwell.
"34 But I do understand why sometimes strangers choose to educate other's
kids.I believe many passengers'dislike children'just because they really can't stand their
parents'attitude.What is really scary is that parents turn a blind eye to their children's
mistakes,use 'he is just a kid'as an excuse and force others to tolerate (their children,"
says He Liyan,a 14-year-old boy from Jiangsu.
The girl named Zhang Kexin from Beijing holds the opinion that though we may be
strangers,we should help teach and care for noisy and crying children.Children are an
important part of human society and need attention and care.35
Helping kids learn how to get along with others and behave properly in public places
