Fancy some steamed buns or sandwiches to beat the hunger pangs when hiking on the Great Wall?
Gone are the days of a 50-minute trek — now, drones have got us covered, slashing the journey to a mere 5 minutes.
Operating in the South Nine Towers area of Badaling, the service promises delivery by drones within five to 15 minutes.
The South Nine Towers area, which opened to the public at the end of last year, is a less commercialized, rugged section of the Great Wall. It preserves the Wall’s historical charm while accommodating activities such as hiking and photography.
At present, the starting delivery fee of this service is 15 yuan, and the drone delivery fee is just 4 yuan, the same as regular deliveries. The service will take orders from 10 a. m. to 4 p. m., after which the drones will be tasked with carrying trash to recycling stations. After the end of daily operation hours, the unmanned aerial vehicle will transform from a “mountain worker” to a “sanitation worker” to assist the scenic area operation and maintenance personnel to transport nearby waste to the designated recycling location, relieving the daily transportation pressure of staff in the hot summer.
The drones still need human help. Once an order is received, a worker will pick it up from a nearby store and bring it to the hotel rooftop, where it will be weighed and packaged. An operator then attaches the package to the drone, which will fly on autopilot to the watchtower, where another worker waits to receive it.
It’s the capital’s first drone service, adding to a fast-growing drone delivery business across China, which is the world’s largest manufacturer and exporter of civilian consumer drones. The industry has brought convenience to people living in both cities and hard-to-reach rural areas.
In addition to boosting rural logistics, drones are also increasingly used to fetch quick takeout for people living in China’s metropolises.
21. When could people order takeout food on the Great Wall?
A. At the end of 2023. B. In the spring of 2023.
C. In April 2024. D. In July 2024.
22. How much does it cost to order takeout at least once?
A. Four yuan. B. Fifteen yuan.
C. Nineteen yuan. D. No information in the text.
23. What information can we learn from the passage?
A. You can place an order at any time.
B. Drone delivery doesn’t require human help.
C. Drone deliveries are only available in major Chinese cities.
D. The packaged food is delivered to the watchtower, where it is then picked up by another worker and delivered to consumers.
B
As students of all ages in China have started their summer vacation, “parent-child” travel welcomes its peak season, with museums being one of tourists’ top choices. Tickets that have been released so far for many popular museums, including the Palace Museum in Beijing, and the Nanjing Museum in Nanjing, have all been fully booked, according to a report by the paper.cn on Tuesday.
Data from online platforms Meituan and Dianping show that the search popularity of “museum” has increased by 61 percent month-on-month since June, with “Shaanxi History Museum”, “Shanghai Museum” and “National Museum of China” as related hot search phrases.

The popularity of museums has also triggered demand for nearby accommodations. According to Ctrip, The Civilization of Ancient Egypt exhibition at the Shanghai Museum has driven summer orders of nearby hotels to a 20 percent increase year-on-year.
Data from homestay bookings and operating platform Tujia show that guest house bookings around museums nationwide jumped nearly two times compared with the same period last year.
Beijing, Chengdu, Xi’an, Chongqing, Shanghai, Wuhan, Luoyang and Zhengzhou are the most popular cities for booking guest houses around museums in China, with Luoyang and Zhengzhou seeing the highest increase in bookings, both more than doubling over the same period last year.
Summer bookings for guest house around Guanghan Sanxingdui Museum jumped by more than 15 times year-on-year, the report said, adding that bookings of guest houses near Nanjing Museum and Shaanxi History Museum increased by nearly 1.5 times and 50 percent year-on-year, respectively.

Thousands of people took to the streets across the United Kingdom on Wednesday to protest against anti-immigrant, far-right rioting that had flared throughout the previous week. Anti-racism protests held placards with words such as “Smash fascism & racism”, “Refugees welcome. Stop the far-right” and “Love, not hate.” Express their demands in a peaceful manner. According to the British “Independent” statistics, a total of about 25,000 people participated in the peaceful demonstration.
The attack at a children’s summer dance class on July 29 has triggered violent anti-immigrant riots across the UK fueled by false social media claims that the suspect was a radical Islamist migrant. The day after the knife attack, thousands of people gathered near British Prime Minister Starmer’s Downing Street office in central London.
Far-right protests targeted Muslims and the immigrant population in general, gripping the country and resulting in police officers being injured, stores being looted, and hotels housing asylum-seekers being stormed. The reality is that the suspect, a British-born descendant of Rwandan immigrants, has been charged with murder. However, disinformation quickly spread, and far-right elements used the opportunity to launch violent riots, causing widespread social unrest.
The British government and police have stepped up their presence in anticipation of further unrest. London’s Metropolitan Police said it was prepared with “all forces, tactics and tools” to protect the capital.
Police sources told Sky News they were aware of more than “100 events and 30 counter protests” planned on Wednesday, with 41 out of 43 police forces in England and Wales expecting activity. More than 6,000 specialist officers have been mobilized in anticipation of potential violence.
On August 6, local time, British Prime Minister Starmer said at a cabinet meeting that the ongoing violence was no longer a protest, but a “violent riot” and those involved in violent acts would quickly face “the full force of the law”. After a week of violent anti-immigrant and anti-Muslim protests in the United Kingdom, the British government blamed social media platforms, particularly Musk’s X platform, for stoking tensions.
The government has also vowed to go after not just the rioters, but those who used social media to spread the trouble. In the multiday violence that followed that incident, police made more than 400 arrests and charged 140 people.
Immigration and security issues are long-standing social contradictions in Britain, but also reflect the wider concerns of the British people, the riot and anti-far-right events are the reality of this issue again. How to solve the immigration problem from the source is a chronic disease that has troubled the previous British governments, and it is also a challenge that the new Labour government must deal with immediately.
32 What was the cause of these protests?
A. The protesters wanted more rights.
B. The protesters fought for more jobs.
C. The protesters demanded the right to vote.
D. A children’s summer dance class was attacked.
33. What caused the violence to flare up so quickly?
A. Disinformation spread quickly, and the far right took advantage.
B. The rioters were numerous.
C. The British government did nothing.
D. The protesters did not organize the event well.
34. In order to protect social stability, what measures has the British government not taken?
A. The British government has mobilized more than 6,000 police officers.
B. The British government vowed to crack down on the rioters, and those involved in the violence quickly faced the full force of the law.
C. The British government blamed social media for exacerbating tensions.
D. The British government mobilized troops to suppress it.
35. What is the biggest challenge facing Britain’s new Labour government?
A. To solve the immigration problem.
B. To solve the problem of food and clothing for all.
C. To eliminate social instability.
D. To deal with those who perpetrated the riots.

On the video games circuit, an arena dominated by Western legends, one can say the Chinese legends have arrived. On Tuesday, the day of its official release,1.6 million global players were playing together online the newly developed game Black Myth: Wukong on the Steam platform. It had more takers than Counter-Strike 2, Dota 2, and Elden Ring, all popular worldwide. ____36____
The investment has received good returns as by Tuesday evening over 3 million copies had already been sold on video game digital distribution service Steam. Another 1.5 million copies were sold on WeGame, Epic and PlayStation services, with the total sales having exceeded 1.5 billion yuan ($210.3 million). ____37____.
It was in the 1960s and 1970s that video games first emerged in Europe, the US, and Japan, with the first batch of developers naturally choosing Western legendary and historical stories as the basis of their games. Contra and Super Contra had their tales started in New Zealand, the King of Dragons and the Knights of the Round were based on the novel Lord of Rings and the story of Arthur King, while Super Mario told stories about an Italian pipe worker’s adventures in the underworld of New York.
____38____ Games that are popular among games around the world are still developed abroad, such as Starcraft, Warcraft, and Counter-Strike, which are popular in Internet cafes. Even old favorites such as Red Alert 2 or WarCraft Ⅲ or SuperMario have a Western cultural background. After them, there is Dota 2 and its predecessor Dota, which, too, are based on a fictional magical world but most of their heroes, such as Alchemist, Paladin Om-niknight and Naga Siren can all be traced to ancient European tales. Elden Ring’s characters are mostly Western in style. ____39____ Surely they do—their world was invented by English-speaking teams based on English-language literature to serve English-speaking customers.
China had its games but most were played domestically only. ____40____ By July its international server claimed to have over 50 million registered users accumulated, covering more than 160 countries and regions worldwide.
Compared with Honor of Kings, Black Myth: Wukong is the first Chinese game developed by a Chinese team based on a Chinese legend that has gained world influences, which makes it a more suitable culture exporter. Its engine, modeling, and quality of image are all among the world’s mainstream ones, making it appealing to global players.
A. So foreign players ask around: “What is the origin of that Chinese monkey”?
B. Of course, “Black Myth: Wukong” made a good start, can not be separated from the development team for six years to forge a sword.
C. By the beginning of the 21st century, computers had replaced arcade and red and white machines.
D. Compared with Honor of Kings, in which most heroes are drawn from Chinese history or legends.
E. Throughout the history of gaming, such a highlight moment is truly rare.
F. All of which made some joke that all legendary heroes have one thing in common, namely speaking fluent, standard English.
G. It was not until Honor of Kings, which picked the absolute majority of its heroes from Chinese legends and history, was welcomed by players worldwide that the situation started to change.

67. 读后续写
Sometimes we will impatiently dismiss the people and things that we think are not important, and we are perfunctory about the commissions of others, but this casual and irresponsible attitude often affects us.
An elderly carpenter was ready to retire. He told his employer contractor of his plans to leave the house building business to live a more leisurely life with his wife and enjoy his extended family. He would miss the paycheck each week, but he wanted to retire.
The colleagues, having worked together for a long time, persuaded him to work together. But the carpenter’s determination did not change.
The contractor was sorry to see his good worker go and asked if he could build just one more house as a personal favor. The carpenter said yes, but over time it was easy to see that his heart was not in his work. He recruited some poor workers and used substandard materials. The work is also very rough. It was an unfortunate way to end a dedicated career.
When the carpenter finished his work, his employer came to inspect the house. Then he handed the front-door key to the carpenter and said, “This is your house — my gift to you. This is your reward for all the work you have done for me.”
Paragraph 1:
The carpenter was shocked.

【66题答案】
【答案】Dear Li Ming,
There is no doubt that typhoons are terrible. The first thing to do is to learn to protect yourself when the typhoon comes.
Secondly, we should always pay attention to the weather forecast and the direction of the typhoon. When the typhoon comes, it is necessary to understand the dynamics of the typhoon in time, and personnel should be transferred to safe areas in time, avoiding places that are easy to cause casualties (dangerous and old houses, factories, sheds, temporary buildings), and do not shelter from the wind and rain in the above places.
Again, secure the doors and windows. Doors and Windows should be tied tightly, especially aluminum alloy doors and windows. Remove all hangings inside and outside the house; Close doors and windows and nail boards if necessary.
It is also necessary to prepare emergency supplies for escape.
Yours,
Li Hua

【67题答案】
【答案】Paragraph 1:
The carpenter was shocked. The carpenter covered his face and said to himself, “If I had known that the house was built for myself, I would not have done so carelessly.” The carpenter wanted to ask the boss, “Why didn’t you tell me earlier?” He opened his mouth and before he could ask, the boss understood what he meant and smiled and said, “I want to give you a surprise.” The carpenter, holding the house key firmly in his hand, crouched down slowly, his face full of regret speechless.
Paragraph 2:
It tells us that everything we do now is building the future for ourselves. If you do not treat your work seriously and responsibly, you will ultimately suffer yourself. Always maintain professionalism, do every job with your heart, and create better conditions for your future. This story also reminds us to cherish every opportunity in front of us. Every opportunity in life is precious, we should cherish and make full use of them, rather than waiting until lost only to regret it later. The story also teaches us to be honest and trustworthy. Everything must be completed seriously, every step of the way to go down to earth, and every day to spend hard!
