China has also joined its friends across the sea on other important projects.Although the ancient sea routes of Zheng He have been travelled many times, there are still many other places left to explore. In recent years, China has joined other nations on several expeditions to explore the Arctic.From a scientific point of view, there is an urgent need to study the Arctic in order to understand climate change and its effects. Hundreds of years on, and with the latest technology in hand, the need to trade and the desire to enhance relationships will drive China to reach out across the sea far into the future.

At first, her coworkers at the Kentucky Horse Hospital doubted her methods. However, Carter's use of Chinese herbal treatments for horse injuries has shown remarkable results. Her interest in traditional medicine began in 2015 during a study program in Beijing. There, she saw Chinese veterinarians (兽医) using herbs like Huangqi (黄芪) to help farm animals recover faster. Inspired, Carter decided to combine Western medical tools with these ancient methods. A study she published in a veterinary journal showed that her patients recovered 30% faster than those treated only with standard methods. Despite her success, some experts argue that more long­term research is needed. They argue that herbs have varying effects on different animals and that clearer guidelines for their use are essential. In response to these concerns, Carter is now working with universities to develop safe and reliable herbal standards. She is confident that this partnership will not only enhance the effectiveness and safety of herbal treatments but also help traditional Chinese medicine gain wider acceptance in the global medical community. In the quiet corner of her clinic, where the scent of dried herbs mixes with the calm breaths of recovering horses, Carter's work tells a story of its own — a story which reflects a growing trend: mixing Eastern and Western practices in animal care. Her hands, steady and sure, move from tending to a horse's wound to explaining the delicate balance of nature's treatments to its owner. “Respecting nature's wisdom benefits both animals and humans，” she often says, her voice carrying the weight of belief. 语篇解读：本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了艾米丽·卡特博士将中医草药用于马伤治疗获成效，推动东西方动物医疗实践融合。 √ 解析：细节理解题。根据第一段第一句可知，卡特博士用由当归制成的混合物(传统草药)涂抹在赛马受伤的腿上，即使用传统草药治疗马受伤的腿。 1．How did Dr Carter treat the horse's injured leg?

B One of the most famous archaeological discoveries in all history is the Terracotta Army.They were found by farmers digging for a well on the outskirts of Xi'an in 1974.Becoming a UNESCO World Heritage site in 1987，the spectacular figures continue to attract millions of visitors from all over the world.Yet the excavations (发掘) are unfinished. Famously, archaeological work at the site and the accompanying tomb of the First Qin Emperor has been allowed to slow down until technology advances enough to preserve the artworks currently buried underground.In addition to this，safety concerns have been raised regarding the unusually high levels of mercury (水银) found in the soil.It is supposed that this is from the mercury streams which were inlaid in the floor of the burial chamber，but only time will tell if this ancient tale is true. Currently over 8,000 Terracotta Warriors have been found, each one with a distinctively different look.This was achieved through an early use of assembly­line­type construction.The warriors were assembled with 8 different heads to choose from，and features being added with additional clay by skilled craftsmen. Studying the warriors and their horses offers historians an important insight into this period in Chinese history.The technology used to assemble the underground army was truly remarkable.Over 40,000 bronze weapons were found, and after more than 2,000 years they still appear sharp.How is this possible？The ancient Chinese managed to use protective chrome plating (镀铬)，something that was thought to have been invented in Germany in 1937! When it is completely uncovered, the sight will truly be spectacular and much more will be understood about China's first Emperor and the level of technology the ancient Chinese possessed. 语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了兵马俑的发掘以及中国古代的工艺技术。 √ 解析：细节理解题。根据第一段可知，农民在挖井时，偶然发现了兵马俑。 5．How was the Terracotta Army found?

Today， the ancient sea routes travelled by Zheng He are ② being revisited with the 21st Century Maritime Silk Road, which is part of the Belt and Road Initiative. The aim of this initiative is to encourage cooperation and trade across the historic Silk Road areas, and strengthen the bonds between China and the rest of the world.Trading has grown greatly in recent years, and will continue to do so in years to come.China has invested billions in systems and services along these routes, which will help to greatly develop the whole area for the benefit of future trade and cultural exchange. $
