I arrived in the UK weeks ago and would stay to receive further study in English. I made quite a few friends and experienced some traditional English food. However, after having several days of hamburgers, sandwiches and tomatoes, I made a conclusion (下结论) that nothing could be more delicious than Chinese food, especially my favorite—huo guo. You just can’t imagine how excited I was getting when someone notified me that there was going to be a free meal of hotpot to welcome all the new students. On the way to the restaurant, I seemed to smell huo guo in the air.
Much to my surprise, when I went into the room, I didn’t see any sign of huo guo. Where was it? With many questions in my head, I sat down to have the free meal. After talking with an English girl, I got to know that Chinese huo guo is completely different from hotpot. Hot pot, two words, is Chinese huo guo; and hotpot, one word, is a traditional English dish.
People use mutton (羊肉) to make hotpot. On the top are pieces of potatoes. Most of the time, onion (洋葱) is also needed. People put the food in the oven (炉) all day in a heavy pot on a low heat. It takes very little effort to prepare. You can often see hotpot at parties in the UK because it’s easy to prepare for a large number of people and is not expensive.
Hotpot doesn’t taste bad. However, I still miss huo guo—hot pot, two words!
31. The writer was missing Chinese food after tasting ______.
A. hamburgers, sandwiches and mutton B. hamburgers, tomatoes and onion
C. hamburgers, sandwiches and tomatoes D. hamburgers, mutton and onion
32. The writer felt excited when she thought she would ______.
A. have her favorite huo guo B. meet some new friends
C. try traditional English food D. learn English in the UK
33. What does the underlined word “notified” in Paragraph 1 probably mean in Chinese?
A. 表扬 B. 告知 C. 要求 D. 忘记
34. What does the writer think of hot pot?
A. Very delicious. B. Too hot. C. Not bad. D. Not expensive.
35. What would be the best title for the text?
A. Language and culture B. English food and hotpot
C. Hot pot and hotpot D. Chinese food and huo guo
C
Even though faraway countries may now seem closer thanks to modern travel, they may still be different from your home country. The following are some tips that will make your trip more enjoyable.
Never raise your voice in order to make yourself understood. If you do not know the word for something in the local language, try to draw a picture or point to an object. If you have to point something out, do so by gesturing (做手势) towards the object, with the palm (掌心) of your hand open, facing upward, and your fingers straight.
Consider the main religion (宗教) of the country you plan to visit and read about any taboos (禁忌) related to clothing, especially if you plan to visit places that are considered serious. You’d better wear T-shirts that cover your shoulders, and long trousers. What’s more, avoid topics of conversation that you think may be sensitive (敏感的). If a topic is sensitive in your own culture, it will more than likely be the same in other cultures.
If you plan to stay with a host family, and you wish to take a gift, do some research. One of the easiest ways to upset somebody is to give the wrong gift. In China, you mustn’t give fans as gifts. The Chinese word for “fan” has a similar sound to the word for “separation”.
Wherever you go in the world, always show respect for the values of the country you are in.
36. Which of the following shows the right gesture when you point to an object?
A. B. C. D.
37. What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 3 refer to (指代)?
A. The main religion. B. The country. C. A topic. D. Your own culture.
38. From which paragraph can we know what must be avoided in conversation?
A. Paragraph 2. B. Paragraph 3. C. Paragraph 4. D. Paragraph 5.
39. What can be given as a present in China according to Paragraph 4?
A. A fan. B. A clock. C. A fish. D. A pear.
40. What can be learnt from the text?
A. To see is to believe. B. Experience is the mother of wisdom.
C. East or west, home is the best. D. When in Rome, do as the Romans do.
D
In many small Indian villages, water shortage (短缺) has a direct connection to the life of women. Faculty of Communication and Culture professor Aradhana Parmar once travelled throughout the small villages in the Rajasthan province (省份) in India and found out this connection. “We think of water as a necessity (必需品) for drinking, but we don’t think of it as a women’s problem,” said Parmar. “In Rajasthan, water is connected to women’s lives.”
In those villages women have to make a long journey for water. The result has a deep influence on women’s lives. Daughters are forced to give up their education in order to manage the family household, because their mothers have to spend about six hours every day in collecting water. The result is that the level (水平) of women’s education is now the lowest in the country.
To deal with water shortage, the province got the help of local non-government organizations (NGOs) to use ancient knowledge of rain water collecting. The 5,000-year-old way is building wells to catch rain where it falls, clean and store it.
Parmar and two of her students are spending the winter in India. They are studying how traditional rain water collecting influences women’s lives. “In this world of water shortage, rain water collecting can help everyone, and things will become better and better.” Parmar said with a smile.
41. What makes Parmar think water has a connection to women’s life?
A. A recent report about some Indian villages. B. Her experiences in some Indian villages.
C. A study about the life of professors. D. Her travelling around the world.
42. What is the result of water shortage in those villages?
A. Women travel to other countries. B. Nobody manages family household.
C. Many schools have to be shut down. D. Women’s education level becomes low.
43. The way to deal with water shortage in the text is ______.
A. to store rain water B. to ask for help from government
C. to make dirty water in the wells clean D. to make use of the 5,000-year-old water
44. What can we know from the text?
A. Daughters have to spend six hours a day at home.
B. It takes mothers a whole day to get water every day.
C. Local government order people to learn old knowledge.
D. Water shortage is a common problem around the world.
45. What did Parmar feel about dealing with water shortage?
A. Worried. B. Bored. C. Hopeful. D. Uncertain.

Hi, John,
I’m writing to share with you an activity called Opera Entering Campus in our school.
It was held on the school playground at 3 pm on December 30, 2024. First, our headmaster gave a speech about opera. Then, there was an exciting opera knowledge competition, from which I learned a lot of interesting opera knowledge. The highlight was the wonderful opera performances by teachers and students.
I really enjoyed it. It not only provided me with the opportunity to learn more about opera but also made me proud of our traditional culture.
Yours,
Li Hua
