To find the answer, we did a survey among 1,000 young people. Q: ▲ Q: What life skills do you want to learn? Q: Why do you spend time learning life skills? Li: We live and learn. It’s fun to learn something new. Wang: I don’t want to ask my parents for help all the time in my life. Su: Learning something new is exciting. It is also a good way to relax. 26．Which of the following can be put in the “ ▲ ”? A．Should children take the internet seriously? B．Is it important for young people to learn life skills? C．Does the internet play an important role in your life? 27．How many young people want to learn how to shop for food? A．408. B．339. C．318. 28．What are the top three most popular life skills?

B．More than 400 people want to learn first aid. C．Over 90% think young people should learn life skills. B ①Have you eaten a “China burger” yet? In recent years, “China Burger” fast food restaurants have opened and become more and more popular. Although they go by different names, like Tastien and Ranxiong, they are like McDonald’s, KFC or Burger King, but more Chinese. ②I wanted to try something special from Tastien. So a few days ago, I got a Peking duck burger with a drink. ③When I got my food, I loved the packaging (包装). The paper bag and boxes came in red, white and blue colors. They also had the words “Made in China” on them. The burger is pretty good. It has the Peking duck meat with some cucumber, lettuce and plum sauce. I really like their freshly made bread. It’s better than the bread from other brands. Although the Chinese bread used was not perfect, the China Burger gave people a more Chinese taste. It opens the door for me to try more different burgers. I’d still like to eat more from this and other China Burger restaurants in the future. ④Tastien started selling burgers in 2017, but since then it has grown fast. With its slogan (标语) of “Chinese stomachs (胃) love Chinese burgers,” Tastien now has over 5,400 stores, making it the fourth-largest burger chain in China. A Tastien customer spends just 19 yuan for every meal, far less than that spent at McDonald’s and KFC. And these “Chinese burgers” are often on sale for as little as 7 yuan. ⑤The popularity also has something to do with a growing sense of national pride among Chinese consumers. Chinese products are getting more fans and young Chinese consumers think “Made in China” is not bad at all. 31．How much does a Tastien customer often spend for these “Chinese burgers”? A. 19 yuan B. 12 yuan C. 7 yuan 32．According to the passage, which of the following is NOT right about the food from Tastien? A. There aren’t any words on the packaging. B. You can have Peking duck meat in the burger. C. The paper bag and boxes are in red, white, and blue. 33．In Paragraph 4, the writer mentions McDonald’s and KFC to show ______. A. food from Tastien is very cheap B. Tastien is more popular than them C. the burger from Tastien tastes much better 34．What can we infer (推断) from the passage? A. Tastien will be the largest burger chain in China. B. Most young people don’t think Chinese products are good. C. The writer would like to try food from Ranxiong in the future. 35．What is the best title for this passage? A. Chinese Food Is the Best B. Burgers: A Cheaper Choice C. Chinese Stomachs Love Chinese Burgers C In China, a man with great virtue (美德) is called a true junzi. In Chinese culture, four plants are known as the “four junzi”. We can find them in traditional Chinese art, like Chinese paintings and poems. The plum tree is famous for blooming (开花) in the dead of winter. People like plum blossoms because they stay strong even in difficult times. Artists started to paint plum blossoms 1,600 years ago. The orchid grows in mountains. It is named as the fourth of China’s “Ten Famous Flowers”. Because of their elegant postures (优雅的姿态) in the wind, they are praised as symbols of elegance in the hearts of the Chinese people. These flowers symbolize (象征) perseverance. The bamboo is thin but strong. It’s a symbol of tolerance (耐力) and open-mindedness. Su Shi once wrote down “Rather eat without meat than live without the bamboo” in his poem to show his love for the bamboo. Chinese people began growing chrysanthemums more than 3,000 years ago—the strength to get over life’s challenges. That’s why the chrysanthemum is one of China’s most beloved traditional flowers. 36. Match the plants a~d with the virtues ①~④. Which is right? a. orchid b. bamboo c. plum blossom d. chrysanthemum ①elegance ②staying strong ③getting over difficulty ④tolerance and open-mindedness A. ①-a; ②-c; ③-d; ④-b B. ①-a; ②-c; ③-b; ④-d C. ①-c; ②-a; ③-b; ④-d 37. If you want to describe a girl’s beautiful dance, which plant could you use to symbolize her? A. The bamboo. B. The orchid. C. The chrysanthemum. 38. What can we infer from the text? A. Virtue is highly valued in Chinese culture. B. Artists drew the chrysanthemum earlier than the other three. C. All of the four plants are listed as China’s ten famous flowers. 39. Why are the four plants called “four junzi”? A. Because they are symbols of good luck. B. Because they are often used in Chinese art. C. Because they have the virtues that Chinese people admire. 40. Why does the writer introduce the “four junzi”? A. To compare different Chinese flowers. B. To discuss unusual Chinese painting art. C. To show good virtues of Chinese people. 第二节 （共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有一项为多余选项。 In today’s world, many students feel worried because they often compare themselves with others. ___41___ Here is something they can do to help with this.

New studies show that they do! Although plants don’t have mouths like humans, they have their own ways to have communication. Some plants use chemicals (化学物质) to communicate with each other. This happens when insects eat a plant, for example a bean plant. The plant sends out chemicals from the leaves. It is telling other bean plants, “I’m in danger!” When other bean plants smell the chemicals, they start to send out their own, different chemicals. Some of these chemicals can drive the insects away, and others can attract (吸引) bees! Then the bees kill the insects. More surprisingly, plants also use sounds to communicate. People can’t hear these sounds, but plants are making them. Some plants make sounds with their roots (根). Corn and chili plants do this. They also listen to sounds from other plants. A chili plant can tell if a plant around is helpful or unfriendly. Some trees make sounds when there is not enough water. Most surprisingly of all, plants can communicate through an amazing network (网络) called “wood wide web”. The “wood wide web” is connected to each other underground by fungi (真菌). These fungi connect the roots of different plants together. Through the “wood wide web”, plants can exchange information with each other. Some trees can even send food to help smaller trees grow. Scientists are learning more about the ways plants talk to each other. Maybe one day we will be able to “talk” with them. Plant 46 Through chemicals It happens when insects eat plants. * The 47 : → A plant sends out chemicals to remind other plants of the danger. → Other plants send out different chemicals. → Some chemicals drive the insects away, and others attract bees to kill the insects.
