Zhang Hua is a college student. Last summer vacation, she went to a mountain village in Sichuan Province to work as a volunteer teacher. She wanted to help the children there get a better education.
The village was very poor. The school was small and old. There were only 3 classrooms and 2 teachers in the school. Most of the children’s parents went to big cities to work, so they lived with their grandparents. They had never left the village before, and they knew little about the outside world.
At first, Zhang Hua was worried that she couldn’t get along with the children. But soon she found that the children were very lovely and hard-working. They were thirsty for knowledge, and they listened to her carefully in every class. Zhang Hua taught them Chinese, Maths, English and also told them stories about the outside world. She also bought many books for the children with her own money.
After class, Zhang Hua played games with the children, and talked with them about their dreams. Some children wanted to be doctors, some wanted to be teachers, and some wanted to go to college in big cities. Zhang Hua encouraged them to study hard and chase their dreams.
When the vacation was over, Zhang Hua had to leave the village. The children cried and gave her many small gifts, such as paper flowers and hand-drawn pictures. Zhang Hua also cried. She promised the children that she would come back to see them.

We all know banks where we save money, but have you ever heard of a “Food Bank”? In Shenzhen’s Futian District, you will find smart boxes that look like package lockers. They provide free, fresh food day and night to those in need.
Starting in May 2022, the project is a team effort including the government, companies, and social organizations. So far, 22 smart boxes across Futian’s 10 streets are filled with different safe foods.
Just like a traditional bank, this system depends on “deposits (存入)” and “withdrawals (提取).” The “deposits” come from 87 partner companies which make food donations. A touching example is the “steamed buns”—handmade by a retired soldier using his pension (退休金), which have become a local favourite.
The “withdrawals,” however, work differently. Instead of the owners taking the food back, it is offered to the vulnerable. First, the food is saved for poor families, the disabled, and street cleaning workers through the “I Shenzhen” App before 8 p.m. To reduce waste, any leftovers (剩余食物) are offered to the general public after 8 p.m.
Safety is the top worry. The bank follows strict rules: boxes are kept at a low temperature, all food sources are known, and officials do regular checks.
By December 2025, the project has helped 484,000 people, saving 195 tons of food from waste and reducing CO2 by 390 tons. These food banks do more than provide food; they build community spirit and help save food and energy, acting as a shining model of Shenzhen’s creative and kind citizen care.
22.What is a “Food Bank” according to the passage?
A.A traditional bank to save and withdraw money.
B.A smart box providing free food to people in need.
C.A supermarket that sells fresh vegetables and fruits.
D.A large package locker for mail delivery.
23.Which of the following statements is TRUE?
A.The food banks have run for more than three years.
B.Only partner companies donate food for the bank.
C.The general public can get food from the bank at any time.
D.The “steamed buns” are made by a famous hotel.
24.What does the word “vulnerable” probably mean in Paragraph 4?
A.People who are rich and powerful.
B.People who work for the government.
C.People who need help and support most.
D.People who like using smart phones.
25.What can we infer from the last paragraph?
A.The project wastes too much money and food.
B.The project is helpful to environmental protection.
C.Shenzhen will stop the project after December 2025.
D.People in Shenzhen don’t like using these food banks.
【答案】22.B 23.A 24.C 25.B
【导语】本文是一篇说明文,主要介绍了深圳福田区“食物银行”项目的相关情况。
【详解】22.根据第一段中的“In Shenzhen’s Futian District, you will find smart boxes that look like package lockers. They provide free, fresh food day and night to those in need.”可知,食物银行是给有需要的人提供免费食物的智能箱。
23.根据第二段中的“Starting in May 2022, the project is a team effort including the government, companies, and social organizations.”和最后一段中的“By December 2025, the project has helped 484,000 people, saving 195 tons of food from waste and reducing CO2 by 390 tons.”可知,项目从2022年5月运行至2025年12月,时长超过三年,可知A项正确。
24.根据第四段中的“Instead of the owners taking the food back, it is offered to the vulnerable. First, the food is saved for poor families, the disabled, and street cleaning workers through the ‘I Shenzhen’ App before 8 p.m.”可知,食物提供给贫困家庭、残疾人等群体,因此“vulnerable”指最需要帮助和支持的弱势群体。
25.根据最后一段“By December 2025, the project has helped 484,000 people, saving 195 tons of food from waste and reducing CO2 by 390 tons…they build community spirit and help save food and energy”可知,该项目减少了浪费和二氧化碳排放,有助于环境保护。

Have you ever bought any second-hand things? Maybe you’ve noticed that this trend (趋势) is spreading fast around us. 26 One million people are buying over 2 million second-hand items, such as clothing and books every day.
People have bought more things than they really need. As more people turn to a simple lifestyle, they are selling their used items cheaply. Shoppers like low prices. Besides the cost-saving benefit, there’s another nice reason behind this choice. 27

29 Zhao, a college student in Harbin, once found a note in a second-hand book she bought. “Its previous (以前的) owner shared her thoughts and hoped I would enjoy it. It was so heart-warming,” Zhao said. “ 30 ” This small connection makes second-hand books carry more warmth than new ones.

51.句意:在中国,鼓励你尊重并遵循当地的用餐礼仪。然而,也要确保你品尝当地特产,并享受有趣的美食之旅。前句说“要遵守礼仪”,后句说“也要享受美食”,语义转折,用However“然而”,后面接逗号。

Zhang Hua is a college student. Last summer vacation, she went to a mountain village in Sichuan Province to work as a volunteer teacher. She wanted to help the children there get a better education.
The village was very poor. The school was small and old. There were only 3 classrooms and 2 teachers in the school. Most of the children’s parents went to big cities to work, so they lived with their grandparents. They had never left the village before, and they knew little about the outside world.
At first, Zhang Hua was worried that she couldn’t get along with the children. But soon she found that the children were very lovely and hard-working.

We all know banks where we save money, but have you ever heard of a “Food Bank”? In Shenzhen’s Futian District, you will find smart boxes that look like package lockers. They provide free, fresh food day and night to those in need.
Starting in May 2022, the project is a team effort including the government, companies, and social organizations. So far, 22 smart boxes across Futian’s 10 streets are filled with different safe foods.
Just like a traditional bank, this system depends on “deposits (存入)” and “withdrawals (提取).” The “deposits” come from 87 partner companies which make food donations. A touching example is the “steamed buns”—handmade by a retired soldier using his pension (退休金), which have become a local favourite.
The “withdrawals,” however, work differently. Instead of the owners taking the food back, it is offered to the vulnerable. First, the food is saved for poor families, the disabled, and street cleaning workers through the “I Shenzhen” App before 8 p.m. To reduce waste, any leftovers (剩余食物) are offered to the general public after 8 p.m.
Safety is the top worry. The bank follows strict rules: boxes are kept at a low temperature, all food sources are known, and officials do regular checks.
By December 2025, the project has helped 484,000 people, saving 195 tons of food from waste and reducing CO2 by 390 tons. These food banks do more than provide food; they build community spirit and help save food and energy, acting as a shining model of Shenzhen’s creative and kind citizen care.
22.What is a “Food Bank” according to the passage?
A.A traditional bank to save and withdraw money.
B.A smart box providing free food to people in need.
C.A supermarket that sells fresh vegetables and fruits.
D.A large package locker for mail delivery.
23.Which of the following statements is TRUE?
A.The food banks have run for more than three years.
B.Only partner companies donate food for the bank.
C.The general public can get food from the bank at any time.
D.The “steamed buns” are made by a famous hotel.
24.What does the word “vulnerable” probably mean in Paragraph 4?
A.People who are rich and powerful.
B.People who work for the government.
C.People who need help and support most.
D.People who like using smart phones.
25.What can we infer from the last paragraph?
A.The project wastes too much money and food.
B.The project is helpful to environmental protection.
C.Shenzhen will stop the project after December 2025.
D.People in Shenzhen don’t like using these food banks.

29 Zhao, a college student in Harbin, once found a note in a second-hand book she bought. “Its previous (以前的) owner shared her thoughts and hoped I would enjoy it. It was so heart-warming,” Zhao said. “ 30 ” This small connection makes second-hand books carry more warmth than new ones.
