These large, closed, and strong earth buildings were added to UNESCO's World Heritage(遗产) List in 2008 Made of cearth, wood, stone and bamboo, each Tulou usually has three to four floors with a big courtyard and only one main gate. The walls cannot only provide protection but also make it warm in winter and cool in summer. ①Each Tulou can hold up to 800 people and act as a community. ②Fujian Tulou is an example of this. In Zhangzhou's Nanjing County, over 15, 000 Tulou buildings are kept. They attract a large number of tourists. In the Tulou area, you can always see many travellers taking videos with their phones or cameras. Local people may invite visitors to their homes for a short tour, sharing stories about the inside design of the Tulou. ③There are also shops offering visitors the chance to dress in the clothes of the local She ethnic minority(畲族) for photos. ④Usually, the ink rubbing(墨水拓片) workshop also interests lots of visitors. The leader of the workshop guides people, showing them luck and happiness in China, on a woodcut(木版画) of a Tulou. After rolling the paper with golden ink, they get a beautiful picture of the Tulou, a unique souvenir(纪念品) made by their own hands that they can take home. 26. Which of the following is NOT a Tulou? 27. What can we learn about Tulou from Paragraph 2? A. It is mainly found in northern China. B. It can create a comfortable living environment, C. It is built with local special materials(材料). D. It divides local people into small groups. 28. What can visitors do in the Tulou? a. Make a film. b. Enjoy the view. c. Learn about the history of the Tulou. d. Buy local clothes. e. Get a picture of the Tulou. A. a, c, d B. b, c, e C. a, b, e D. b, c, d 29. Where can we best put the sentence "China's development has not given up traditional culture." in the article? A. ① B. ② C. ③ D. ④ 30. What is the best title for the passage? A. The Beauty of Fujian Tulou B. Interesting Activities in Fujian C. The History of Fujian Tulou D. A Visit to Fujian Buildings B ①Imagine you are collecting some information &bout winter traditions in northern China. You click on a link (链接) for a video that you think could be useful to you. The video, however, takes time to load(加载). After ten seconds, it hasn't even started playing yet. Will you continue to wait patiently? ②Ramesh Sitaraman is an American computer scientist. He placed 6.7 million people in a situation like the one above. According to his study, people would begin giving up on a video after only two seconds if it still hadn’t started loading yet. And with every additional(额外的) second that would pass without the video starting to play, another 5.8 per cent of them would click on the "Close" icon. ③Sitaraman's study, along with several other studies, shows people are becoming less and less patient. Because of the faster and faster internet speeds, we are used to receiving "instant gratification"(即时满足). We expect to get what we want without having to wait. When we don't get what we want al once, we become worried or even angry. This happens not only in front of our screens. ④Take one of my friends for example. One day last summer, he was cycling home after work. At one crossing, he had to stop because of a red traffic light. After waiting for 30 seconds, he felt impatient and made a crazy decision: Go in whichever direction he saw that had a green light. The decision didn't really save him time. In fact, he took a detour and needed 20 minutes more than usual to get back home. ⑤My friend is not alone. Whenever there are traffic jams, many drivers try to quickly change lanes(变道)---a main reason for accidents. Being patient doesn't just save you trouble. It is also the key to your success in life. ⑥The next time you want to get instant gratification, ask yourself: Why are you in such a hurry? Are you worried that you might miss out on something important? Keep in mind that good things do take time. 31. Why does the writer ask readers to imagine putting themselves in the situation in Paragraph 1? A. To make people think about if they are patient. B. To introduce the right way of clicking on links. C. To recommend readers how to find useful videos. D. To describe the importance of Chinese traditions. 32. Suppose(假定) "x" means the time people have to wait before the video begins and that "y" means the number of the people who choose to wait for the video to start playing. According to Paragraph 2, which of the charts below shows the relationship(关系) between "x" and "y"? 33. What does the underlined part "took a detour" mean in Chinese in Paragraph 4? A. 抄近道走 B. 长久等待 C. 原地转圈 D. 绕远路走 34. What is the CORRECT structure(结构) of the passage? A. ①/②③/④⑤/⑥ B. ①②/③④⑤/⑥ C. ①②/③④/⑤⑥ D. ①/②③④/⑤⑥ 35. How does the writer feel about "instant gratification"? A. The writer strongly supports it. B. The writer doesn't agree about it. C. The writer can't decide if it is right. D. The writer shows great interest in it. C Scene1 (On a cold night, Buck, the half-dog and half-wolf, sits with his kind master John. They are having a heart-to-heart talk by the fire.)

It's completely normal for teenagers to face such challenges about relationship as you're growing up. When it comes to how to get along with classmates, you should actively join class-based projects. For example, if there's a project preparation, volunteer to join a team. Working together towards a goal helps build bonds. For the problems about your parents, leave a specific “chat time" daily, even just 10 minutes. Share your small joys with them, like a funny thing at school, and also listen to their workday stories. I’m sure with these efforts, you’ll see positive changes. Keep your kind heart and open up! Yours, Li Hua 2 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
