People there get water from plants like desert melons. When they are ill, they also use plants as medicine, because there are no hospitals nearby. The last people living in the Kalahari are the San, also called “bush people”. They live in small groups of 25-50 people. They live in little houses made of wood and grass. There are no schools for the children. Children learn from the elderly in the group. They have to learn lots of important things about living in such a challenging place. The Kalahari has two parts: the south is drier with fewer plants and animals, while the north gets more rain. When rain comes in late summer, the land becomes green and beautiful with many flowers and butterflies. But soon, the grass and the bushes get dry and turn brown. Thousands of tourists visit the Kalahari every year. They stay in small wooden houses with beds and showers, but no electricity (电). Tour guides, often San bushmen, tell them stories about the Kalahari. Tourists must be careful of wild animals like lions when they go out. 21. People in the Kalahari get their water from rivers and lakes. 22. The bush people teach kids important things about living in the Kalahari. 23. The north of the Kalahari is wetter than the south and has more plants and animals. 24. Tourists stay in wooden houses with electricity in the Kalahari. 25.

She is known as the “Daughter of Dunhuang” because she spent most of her life protecting (保护) the Mogao Caves. Born in Beijing, Fan grew up in Shanghai. In 1963, after she finished college, she went to work in Dunhuang. Life there was very tough. She lived in a small house with poor light. The water was salty and the weather was dry. But she did not give up. In 1987, the Mogao Caves became a World Heritage site (世界文化遗产). This success came from the hard work of Fan and her team. In 2003, a new law was made to protect the caves. Fan played an important role in making this law. At the age of 65, Fan had a great idea. She wanted to use digital (数码的) technology to keep the caves beautiful forever. In 2016, “Digital Dunhuang” was born. People can now see the caves on their computers without traveling to Dunhuang. This helps protect the real caves because fewer people need to go inside. Fan also wrote a famous book about Dunhuang. It took her more than ten years to finish the second part of the book. She worked very hard on it even after she retired. On 4 May, 2023, Fan Jinshi gave 10 million yuan to Beijing University to support Dunhuang studies. A few months later, she gave another 10 million yuan to protect Dunhuang. In total, she donated 20 million yuan. Fan once said, “My life belongs to Dunhuang.” She is truly the daughter of Dunhuang. 31. Why is Fan Jinshi known as “Daughter of Dunhuang”? A. Because she was born and grew up in Dunhuang. B. Because she wrote many books about the Mogao Caves. C. Because she has visited Dunhuang for traveling several times. D. Because she put most of her lifetime into protecting the Mogao Caves. 32. What does the underlined word “tough” in paragraph 2 probably mean? A. Hard. B. Easy. C. Colourful. D. Boring. 33. What can we learn from the text? a. Fan Jinshi didn’t stop working until she was 65 years old. b. People can use “Digital Dunhuang” to see the caves online. c. Fan Jinshi spent many years writing a book about Dunhuang. d. The Mogao Caves have become a World Heritage site since 2003. A. a, b B. c, d C. b, c D. a, d 34. How much money did Fan Jinshi donate in total? A. 10 million yuan. B. 20 million yuan. C. 30 million yuan. D. 40 million yuan. 35. Which of the following words can best describe Fan Jinshi according to the text? A. Kind and polite. B. Strict and practical. C. Creative and helpful. D. Careless and impolite. C Water is basic to life on earth. It is very important in our life. In fact, it is the source (来源) of life. All living things, from the tiniest insects to the tallest trees, need water to survive. Nearly 70 percent of the human body is water. Our bodies need water to work well. It helps control body temperature, digest food, carry nutrients and remove waste. People can only live for a few days without water. Luckily, the amount of water on Earth is almost the same as it was over 100 million years ago. Surprisingly, the water we drink now is the same water that people drank in the past. How is this possible? The answer is the water cycle. Water keeps moving and changes its form all the time in this cycle. Here is how it works. The sun heats the water in lakes, rivers and oceans, and the water turns into water vapor (水蒸气). The water vapor goes up into the sky. As it rises, it becomes cool and mixes with dust (尘土), and then it turns into clouds. When there is too much water in the clouds, rain or snow falls down to the ground. This is precipitation (降水). Rain and snow fall on the earth and flow into lakes, rivers or go into the ground. After that, the water cycle starts again, protecting all living things on earth. The water cycle is an amazing process. It helps keep the balance of our earth. 36. Which of the following is NOT mentioned in paragraph 1? A. Water is very important to humans. B. Water is considered as the source of life. C. All living things can’t live without water. D. To survive, insects need more water than trees. 37. What do we know about water according to paragraph 2? A. Water can’t help control body temperature. B. Nearly eighty percent of our human body is water. C. We can survive for a few months if we don’t drink water. D. The water we drink today is the same as that people used to drink. 38. What is the right order of the water cycle? ① Rain or snow falls down to the ground. ② Water is heated by the sun and turns into vapor. ③ Vapor rises, cools down, mixes with dust and forms clouds. ④ The water runs into lakes and rivers, and the cycle starts again. A. ②③①④ B. ③②①④ C. ②①③④ D. ③①②④ 39. On which website can you most probably read the text? A. www.socialnovels.com. B. www.worldscience.com. C. www.greattravel.com. D. www.sportsgames.com. 40. What can be the best title for the text? A. Water and Water Cycle B. Water and Human Health C. Different Uses of Water D. Different Forms of Water 第三节（共5小题；每小题1.5分，满分7.5分） 根据短文内容，从短文后所给的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Table manners might surprise you with some important rules.

In India, people usually eat with their right hand. In France, people usually hold a knife and fork while they are eating. ____43____ In Chile (智利), people are not allowed to touch food with fingers. ◆____44____ It is fine to ask for salt or pepper in many places.
