Near the end of 2022, when looking for ideas for his third film, director Lan Hongchun visited a museum about qiaopi(侨批) in South China. He stayed there all day.
Qiaopi are letters and money sent home by overseas Chinese in the past. They traveled across the sea, carrying messages and news from far away to their families in China.
Lan read every letter on show. Then he bought many books to study them. “The more I read, the more I loved these stories,” he said.
What touched him most was the warm feelings behind the paper. They show deep love for family and country, and the strong spirit of overseas Chinese in the past.
“I knew I must tell these stories,” Lan said.
Now the stories are on the big screen.
Dear You is a low-cost film made in Chaoshan, Guangdong. It has become very popular across China. The film is about qiaopi and tells a warm story of family love across the sea.
In the past, many people from coastal places left home to work in Southeast Asia. They sent qiaopi to tell family news and send money back home. These letters kept families close even over thousands of miles.
With the help of the film, qiaopi gets wide attention again. Young people learn about this great cultural treasure through films, shows and online activities.
In 2013, qiaopi was added to the UNESCO Memory of the World Register(世界记忆遗产名录). Today, museums in South China collect and protect these old letters. They help people know about the strong tie between overseas Chinese and their motherland.
19.What is the passage mainly about?
A.A museum in South China. B.A popular film and qiaopi culture.
C.How to write letters in English. D.Life in Southeast Asia.

C.New films about history. D.Books about foreign countries.
21.Why did director Lan Hongchun want to make the film?
A.Because he needed more money. B.Because he worked overseas before.
C.Because he was moved by qiaopi stories. D.Because he lived in Chaoshan.

B.Young people know nothing about qiaopi.
C.All old letters should be thrown away.
D.The film is expensive but not popular.

Imagine this: you sit down and begin to eat a tomato. Suddenly, the tomato starts to scream! This thing would never really happen. But a new study showed that plants make sounds when they are stressed.
Scientists in Israel did the study. They used ultrasonic(超声波) microphones to record the sounds of tomato plants in boxes.
The first two groups made sounds 30 to 50 times every hour, while the third group only made a sound once every hour. “When tomatoes are not stressed at all, they are very quiet,” scientists from the study team reported.
The researchers don’t know how the sounds are made, but they believe the noise comes from the breaking of air bubbles(气泡) in the plants. Scientists also believe that animals and insects may listen to the sounds. For example, the sound can tell them that the plant is stressed and not good for laying eggs on it. When an animal wants to eat plants, it can also use sound to choose which to eat.
After the experiment, the researchers listened to other plants such as wheat, corn and trees and found they also made more sounds when stressed. Researchers said the study can help farmers in the future, as they can better take care of the crops by “hearing” how plants feel.
23.Why did scientists do the study on tomato plants?
A.To help plants grow faster.
B.To find out why tomatoes taste good.
C.To teach farmers how to grow tomatoes.
D.To test if plants make sounds when they’re stressed.
24.Which group of tomato plants made the most sounds every hour?
A.The group with stems cut off. B.The group untouched.
C.The group with enough water. D.The group kept in quiet boxes.
25.What does the underlined word “them” in Paragraph 4 refer to?
A.Animals and insects. B.Air bubbles.
C.Scientists. D.Plants.
26.What can we learn from the passage?
A.Only tomato plants can make sounds.
B.Plants can scream loudly like humans.
C.The study may be useful for farmers in the future.
D.Scientists have known clearly how the sounds are made.

Miss Martha owned a small bakery(面包店). She was forty, a kind woman with a big imagination. She often wondered about the customers in her shop.
One customer made her very curious. He was a middle-aged man with glasses, who always wore old clothes, but clean. He came twice a week, and each time, he only bought two loaves(条) of hard bread. He never looked at her delicious pies or fresh cakes.
Miss Martha decided he must be a poor, hungry artist. She imagined him living in a very small, cheap room, thinking only about his painting so much that he forgot to eat. The idea touched her kind heart. She began to wish she could help him.
The next time he came to the shop, she acted quickly while his back was turned. She took two hard loaves, made a small hole in each, and put a large piece of fresh butter(黄油) inside. Then she wrapped(包裹) them up as usual.
Her heart beat fast as she handed him the bread. She spent the rest of the day dreaming that he would discover her kindness and thank her.
Suddenly, the quiet of the afternoon was broken. The shop door flew open, and the man stormed in. His face was dark with anger. He threw the bread down hard on the table.
“I am an architect(建筑师)!” he shouted. “For the past three months, I have been working on a building plan. I draw in pencil, and I use pieces of hard bread as erasers. It works better than a rubber eraser! But now... look.”
He held up his drawing. A huge, dirty mark from the butter ran across the clean, straight lines.
“You filled my bread with butter!” he shouted. “My work is damaged!”
—Adapted from Witches’ Loaves by O. Henry

The hot pot is one of the most popular meals in China. 36 The hot pot used to be preferred in winter, but recently it has been appearing on tables all year round.
Apart from its delicious taste, there are two other important reasons for the Chinese to like the hot pot. The first one is that the hot pot is considered a great way to make new friends. People gather around the pot, chatting, eating, drinking and having fun. 37 Eating the hot pot can warm the body and improve circulation(血液循环) in winter, but can increase perspiration (出汗) to help cool the body in summer.
38 Two of the most popular hot pots are Sichuan hot pot and Beijing mutton hot pot. Sichuan hot pot is famous for its numbing and spicy(又麻又辣的) taste, because of the addition of some special food materials—Sichuan pepper and other spicy things like chili(辣椒). 39 Beijing mutton hot pot is the most popular hot pot in the northern China hot pots. Mutton is its main part and the soup is made from meat bones.
When you eat a hot pot in a restaurant, generally, there are two types of soup bases: spicy and clear. A clear soup base has a quite light taste. 40 A spicy soup base usually has Sichuan pepper, which is numbing and spicy.
If you have a mixed group with some who don’t eat spicy food, there is a special pot with a divider in the middle between the spicy and clear soup, which is called a double-flavor hot pot(鸳鸯锅).
A.It’s made from seafood or meat bones.
B.It has a long history of about 2,000 years.
C.The other is that the hot pot is a “healthy meal”.
D.Pepper and chili make it different from other hot pots.
E.The hot pot is becoming more and more popular in China.
F.There are several kinds of hot pots in China with different soups.

The Power of Small Kindness
A small act of kindness can make a big difference. For me, that power came from a stranger I met on my way home.
One afternoon, I carried too many books and my schoolbag suddenly broke. Books dropped everywhere. I felt nervous and helpless. A young man stopped at once. He helped me pick up books and tied my bag tightly with a rope he got in the shop nearby. He left quietly before I could say thanks.
This small help brightened my whole day. I realized small kindness is powerful. It doesn’t need great actions, but it gives people hope and comfort. From then on, I try my best to pass on this kindness to others.
