They get up early every day to make and sell baozi. At around 3:00 a.m. on October 29, 2023, Yang and Guo were busy making baozi. Suddenly, they heard a loud cry. Then Yang saw a little girl crying and running without shoes on the street. She had only a paper diaper (纸尿 布) on her body. Seeing her without anyone else, Yang quickly brought the girl into the shop and wrapped (裹) her in a coat to comfort her. And Guo reported it to the police right away. The police officers came and brought the girl to the police station. Very soon, the girl's parents picked up their daughter at the police station. On their way back home, the parents went to the baozi shop and said thanks to Yang and Guo in person. The couple (夫妻) got 5, 000 yuan as a reward for helping the lost girl. But they didn't keep the money. Instead, they offered over 2, 000 hot and free baozi to the cleaners who had to work early in the morning. After their story got popular online, more people came to their shop. Yang said, “Our daily life is still the same. We still make baozi every day. We hope to help more people in need.” ( )24.

When she heard that her friend passed a difficult test, she was upset. She failed (不及格) that test. The test was very important, and it might make a difference to her future. “I got upset,” said Amelia. But then, instead of being lost in the sad feeling, Amelia called her friend.“I told her I failed and I was jealous (忌妒的),”she said. Amelia was surprised that after she spoke her thoughts out, she had a change in her heart so she could share her friend's happiness.“I found happiness growing in my heart. Then I told my friend that I was happy for her,”she said. What Amelia did is called freudenfreude. It means finding joy in others' success (成功). It is very important. It can make our relationships with others enjoyable and improve our life satisfaction. It can also help us to become strong, or happy again after a difficult situation. Freudenfreude is helpful, but it doesn't always come easily. It might need some exercise. Scientists advise that one way to show good feelings for others is to ask questions. This means that you're sharing joy. A study finds that even if your heart isn't in it, your happiness grows when you try to share the joy. Thinking of a person's success as the success of your group also helps. ( )28. How did Amelia feel when she knew her friend passed the test? A. Excited. B. Upset. C. Relaxed. D. Worried. ( )29.

And they are many people's favorite fruit. Liu Wanlin lives in Xining, Qinghai. She describes watermelons as the “fruit of the people”.“They are not like expensive mangoes (芒果). They are cheap and common people can buy enough of them,”she said. Liu grew up in the countryside of the dry Qinghai-Xizang Plateau (青藏高原). The weather there is not good for the planting of watermelons.“I never tasted watermelons as a child,” she said. “But ‘freedom of watermelons’is now not a dream anymore in my place.”People in her place can have as many watermelons as they wish. They get the fruit mostly from Gansu, Shaanxi, and Xinjiang. Song Shaozhe works in a restaurant in Wuhan, Hubei. He says that watermelons are really common at many restaurants as the after-meal fruit, partly because they are cheap. However, the“freedom of watermelons” didn't come easy. For many years, scientists have tried hard to improve watermelon breeding (育种). Watermelons become abundant. The large number of watermelons makes them cheaper. Also, thanks to the development of farming techniques (技术), it is possible for people to enjoy the fruit all year around. ( )32. Why does Liu describe watermelons as the“fruit of the people”? A.
