I had been invited to go to my friend Tori’s birthday party. Tori was not my best friend, but I liked to go to parties. I asked my mom and she said I could go, so I told Tori excitedly that I'd be there.
    And then, two days later, my best friend Lisa called. She and her family would go to Chimelong Safari Park（长隆野生动物世界）for a whole day. She invited me to go with them. I loved Chimelong Safari Park so much. I really wanted to go. I ran to ask my mom if it was okay. That's when my mom reminded me that Tori’s party was on the same day. She said I couldn't change my mind just because something better came along.
    I was mad, so mad. Chimelong Safari Park was my favorite place in the world. I loved to go there and I especially liked going with my best friend. I begged（恳求）my mom，but she said no. I cried. My mom still said no. She explained patiently that once I accepted an invitation to something, I couldn't change my mind for the reason that I preferred to do another thing. At last, I went to Tori’s birthday party.
    The party turned out to be great. We watched a movie that hadn't come out in theaters yet. We had a make-your-own pizza competition. There were many toppings（配料）to choose from. We each got a piece of dough（生面团）and then made our own pizza as we liked. Tori’s parents even gave a present to each of us! When my mom came to pick me up, I didn't want to leave. She was so glad that I'd had a good time and she told me that she was proud of me. Not only did I enjoy the party, but I learned an important lesson——__▲__. My mom was right as usual.

Sugar painting, as the name means, is a painting made of sugar. It's the sugar for us to taste, and the painting for us to admire.
    Since the Warring States Period（战国时期），the ancient people loved sweets and developed methods of producing sugar. In the Tang Dynasty, there was huge progress in the technology of sugar making. And sugar, the precious product once only served to the emperors and princes, also went into common people's homes. With the cultural and economic（经济的）development of Song and Yuan Dynasties, people became less interested in only tasting sweetness. In the Ming Dynasty, some people added pictures with good luck into the bowl of sugar, and sugar painting appeared.
    Sugar painting is different from normal painting. Sugar painters use syrup（糖浆）as the material， a spoon as the “paintbrush”， and a smooth table as the “paper”. To make syrup, they have to make sugar hot before painting. Since syrup may become hard if it cools, the painters have to produce the work very quickly. They move the spoon full of syrup up and down, left and right. Soon a sugar painting is done.
    However, it's a pity that this folk art is dying. The sugar painting that used to be rich in shapes has become poorer and poorer because of fewer needs. What's worse, few people seem to be willing to pass down the art except those aging sugar painters.
    For most people, painting is a kind of art and difficult to understand. However, sugar painting has pulled the art down into people's daily lives. Through it, we may see the spiritual support of the ancient people across centuries. Now, sugar painting has been listed as an intangible cultural heritage（非物质文化遗产）in China. Therefore，the art should be remembered, missed and passed down.

31.What does the underlined word "precious" in Paragraph 2 probably mean?
A. Valuable and expensive.    B. Useful and cheap.
C. Special but worthless.             D. Simple but priceless.
32.When did sugar painting appear?
A. In the Warring States Period.               B. In the Tang Dynasty.
C. In the Yuan Dynasty.                     D. In the Ming Dynasty.
33.Why should sugar painters make the work very quickly?
