That makes the lake a main source of salt in our country. On a clear day, the lake offers a beautiful reflection (映像) of the blue sky. That is why people call it “the mirror of the sky”.

B Hui Cuisine: Source of Delicacy and Charm of History As is known to us all, an increasing number of people are especially fond of traditional Chinese cuisines. Among them, Hui cuisine is well-known for its unique blend of flavors, colors, and cooking techniques, which is considered one of the eight major cuisines in the country. Hui cuisine is a combination of three distinct culinary (烹饪的) styles: southern Anhui, along the Yangtze River, and along the Huai River. Of these, the southern Anhui style is considered the foundational source of Hui cuisine. With a rich history that can be traced back to the ancient Huizhou region during the Southern Song Dynasty, Hui cuisine has developed over centuries with the tireless efforts of many chefs and it has reached such heights of excellence and popularity. The formation and development of Hui cuisine are closely linked to the rise and prosperity of Huizhou merchants (徽商). The wealth of Huizhou merchants in the world and their love for hometown flavors played an important role in the evolution of Hui cuisine. During the Ming and Qing Dynasties, Huizhou merchants flourished in Yangzhou, Shanghai, and Wuhan, contributing significantly to the promotion and development of Hui cuisine. The features of Hui cuisine are its rich flavors, vibrant (鲜艳的) colors, and high heat. Using unique ingredients that are often local specialties, it focuses on natural flavors and nourishing properties (滋养特性). A typical dish is the Stinky Mandarin Fish (臭鳜鱼), a traditional Hui dish that shows its unique pickling and cooking methods. This dish is famous for its rich taste with a hint of sweetness and spiciness. It is often served with rice or other local dishes, making it a popular choice for many people. All in all, culture and cuisine go hand in hand. Therefore, Hui cuisine is not only a culinary tradition, but also carries the folk culture and historical tradition of Anhui. Its unique flavors, cooking techniques, and presentation methods make it a must-try for anyone who loves to explore the diverse flavors of Chinese cuisine. 16. What is the passage mainly about? A. The life of Huizhou merchants. B. The eight major cuisines in China. C. The most popular dish in Hui cuisine. D. The history and features(特点) of Hui cuisine. 17. Which culinary style is the foundation of Hui cuisine? A. Southern Anhui style. B. Northern Anhui style. C. Along the Huai River style. D. Along the Yangtze River style. 18. What contributed to the development of Hui cuisine during the Ming and Qing Dynasties? A. The support of the royal family. B. The invention of new cooking tools. C. The introduction of foreign ingredients. D. The rise and prosperity of Huizhou merchants. 19. Which of the following is NOT a feature of Hui cuisine? A. Rich flavors. B. Vibrant colors. C. High heat cooking. D. Light and delicate taste. 20. What can we infer from the last paragraph? A. Hui cuisine will soon be replaced by modern food. B. Culture and cuisine are closely connected with each other. C. Only people in Anhui like Hui cuisine. D. Hui cuisine has no historical value at all. Diving underwater is exciting, but it can be dangerous in many ways. So organizations like PADI (国际专业潜水教练协会) offer training courses to make sure divers can enjoy themselves safely underwater. C From a young age, Mia DaPonte learned that her mother was a diver.    21    But the minimum age (最低年龄) to start diver training is 10. Starting on her 10th birthday, Mia got serious. Mia lives in Rhode Island, where the oceans are cold.    22    Mia’s diving coaches were impressed with her energy and drive. “She sets her mind to something and she gets it done,” said one of her diving teachers. Over the next two years, Mia kept at it. She not only practiced diving, but also took several other courses where she learned different skills, including first aid and how to find her way underwater.    23    In February, Mia and her family travelled to Mexico, where she made her first night dive. Over the next week, Mia did most of the training needed for the last two courses.    24    Mia completed three dives in one day, including a deep dive to 17.5 metres underwater. The hardest part was showing she could raise an injured adult diver to the surface and take the steps needed to help him breathe again. Mia says she feels proud to have become a Master Scuba Diver (名仕潜水员). The 12-year-old is now New England’s youngest girl to earn the title. Most divers, even adults, never complete this level of training.    25    She’s prepared to take on more training as a diver. In the future, Mia hopes to become a marine biologist (海洋生物学家).

IV．阅读表达（共 25 分） A 阅读下面短文，完成 36 至 39 小题。（共 12 分） These years, many college students choose to join the army after graduation. Zhao Huan is one of them. When Zhao Huan was 26 years old, he joined the army and became one of the soldiers on the top of Changbai Mountain in Jilin Province. The three-year life in the army made him really strong-willed. The weather on the mountain is terrible in winter. The snow can reach as deep as 2 metres. The lowest temperature can be -40℃. There are over 200 days a year when the wind speed is nearly 12 metres per second. “It is very difficult to fall asleep with the wind outside crying like a wolf,” Zhao said. Life was hard because of the weather. When the snow cut off the roads, the soldiers needed water most. They had to heat the snow to get water to drink, cook and wash with. To save water, they only took a bath once a month. Even so, Zhao and his team did not give up. Whatever difficulties they met, they tried their best to finish their tasks. Especially when they were on duty outside in winter, snow hit their faces and they were frozen because of the low temperature. But they put their duty before anything and stood like a statue (雕像) without a slight move. Zhao said, “Life is not easy on the top of Changbai Mountain. Thinking of the lights of thousands of homes, I think my efforts paid off. For me, all the difficulties can be overcome in the future.

Here are four beautiful bookstores that are famous around the world, each offering a special experience for visitors. Livraria Lello in Porto, Portugal Wuguan Books in Kaohsiung,Taiwan, China Opened in 1906 and designed by Francisco Xavier Esteves, this bookstore is famous for its beautiful woodwork, a bright red spiral staircase (螺旋式楼梯), and colorful glass ceilings. Author J. K. Rowling visited it often while living in Porto in the early 1990s. Many believe its magical style inspired the school in her Harry Potter books. Known for its dark design, this bookstore was created by Chu Chih Kang and completed in 2018. It has no common layout (陈列品). Over 400books are displayed, each with its own light and shelf, inviting readers to look through the pages. Small tables with lamps allow visitors to read a little before buying. Phone flashes are not allowed, as the store wants to create a quiet reading space. Visitors must be at least 18 years old. Libreria Acqua Alta in Venice, Italy El Ateneo Grand Splendid, in Buenos Aires, Argentina In a city that often floods, this bookstore creatively keeps its books in bathtubs, waterproof (防水的) boxes, and even boats. Opened in 2004, it also has a “fire escape” leading straight to a waterway and a backyard with walls made of books. At the back, a staircase built from old novels and textbooks offers a beautiful view of the waterway. This bookstore was once a performing arts theater that opened in 1919. It was turned into a bookstore in 2000, but many old details remain, such as red stage curtains, theater boxes, and a painted round ceiling. In the former stage area, there is a café where people enjoy coffee while reading books in Spanish and English. 40．根据文章内容，完成下列表格。（每空不超过3个词）（6分） ① ________________________________ Names ② __________________and foundation time ③ __________________ Special story/rules Livraria Lello In Porto, Portugal, in 1906.
