You probably remember the Flaming Mountains from Journey to the West. But do you know where the real Flaming Mountains are? They are in Turpan, in the east of the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region.
It’s known as one of the hottest areas in the world. The desert sand can be as hot as 80°C in mid-summer. That’s enough to make your feet burn! It may sound crazy, but the locals can cook an egg on the desert sand. Rainfall in Turpan is only 16 mm a year. It is one of the driest places in China. How do people survive in such a terrible climate? The secret lies in the ancient karez system.
The karez system in Turpan includes more than 1,000 wells. They appear every 20-30 metres. Some of them are 100 metres deep! Under these wells are large underground canals. Water from the mountains falls into the wells. It then runs underground in the canals. It is kept cool and safe from the desert heat. There are over 5,000 km of underground canals in the area. That’s nearly as long as the Yellow River! Thanks to the karez system, people can grow plants for food in this difficult environment. And amazingly, all of this was completed with only hand tools! No wonder it’s among the top three projects of ancient China.
Today, the area faces a water shortage. There is less water from the mountains, lower rainfall and a large increase in water use. Although modern technology is solving some problems, the karez system still plays an important role. Now, more and more young people are taking action to protect it. The centuries-old water system will surely be carried into the future.

“Excuse me, may I have a purple crayon, please?” five-year-old Leah asked a nurse. “I want to colour the butterfly.”
“Sorry, but I can’t find one,” said the nurse. “I’m afraid you’ll have to draw a grey butterfly.”
This conversation happened in a waiting room at Sunshine Hospital. The hospital provided colouring books for young patients. But there were never enough crayons. Why? Well, crayons may carry viruses and spread diseases. They can only be used once. Then they must be thrown away. The hospital had many new patients every day. It just couldn’t afford new crayons for every child.
Leah was born with a serious disease, and she made many hospital visits. “A lot of the time she’s in great pain,” her mum said. “But colouring has helped her get through it.” Leah didn’t want other young patients to feel her disappointment. “It can be boring to wait for X-rays and treatments. I want them to feel good,” she said. “There must be something for me to do.”
Leah planned to buy 500 boxes of crayons for the hospital. However, all her pocket money was only enough for about 40 boxes. Because of her illness, she couldn’t do chores for money, either.
It might sound impossible, but Leah didn’t give up. With the help of her family and friends, she held many activities to raise money. And she would always be there in her wheelchair. Word spread fast, and Leah’s story went public. So far, she has collected 2,675 boxes.
“She is a kind girl,” said one nurse. “She’s added colour to this hospital. The waiting rooms are now filled with happier kids and brighter pictures!”
请根据以上短文内容,选择最佳答案。
31. Why did Leah ask the nurse for a purple crayon?
A. To draw a butterfly. B. To colour a grey book. C. To give it to other kids.
32. Why couldn’t the hospital prepare enough crayons for children?
A. The nurses hated buying crayons.
B. Few little kids liked using crayons.
C. Used crayons have to be thrown away and new ones cost much.
33. What helps Leah get through her painful hospital life?
A. Taking X-rays. B. Doing housework. C. Colouring.
34. How many boxes of crayons has Leah collected in total so far?
A. About 40 boxes. B. 500 boxes. C. 2,675 boxes.
35. What can we learn from Leah’s story?
A. Never give up when helping others.
B. We can make money only by doing chores.
C. Sick children can’t take part in activities.

Dear diary,
I had a really bad day. I tried out for the basketball team, but the coach said I wasn’t tall enough. This has been my dream since I was little! ____36____ I have practised so much, and it all ended today. I feel very bad.
17 September, 2023
Dear diary,
I was just reading my diary from four years ago. How time flies! Back then, I was so disappointed at being too short and failing to get on the basketball team. I couldn’t help laughing at my heartbreaking words then. Basketball was really a big deal for me. But things changed soon after that. I was so hurt by my failure back then, and my friends were all worried. ____37____ “Why not try something else, like swimming or skiing?” suggested my best friend.
At first, I swam just to take my mind off things. ____38____ But soon, I fell completely in love with the sport. I’ve won several competitions now and I’ve made a lot of friends. My life has taken a different turn. ____39____
It’s great to look back and see my pains and gains with fresh eyes. Growing up will never be an easy thing. But we need to look at challenges in the right way. Now I understand that failure is a part of life. It may fall upon us at any stage in our lives. I have experienced many other terrible moments since then. But I have never felt so bad again. I know clearly that failure lasts just a moment. When one door closes, another opens. Life is waiting for us with many other surprises. ____40____ Tomorrow is another day.
A. Every time I meet difficulties, I will think of this experience.
B. I even wanted to give up all sports at that time.
C. Slowly, swimming became my new hobby and passion.
D. I felt lucky for the unexpected change in my life.
E. I still keep playing basketball in my free time now.
F. I spent almost all my free time practicing dribbling and shooting.

阅读下面短文,根据短文内容,按要求完成任务。
At noon on 24 May 1960, four climbers stood alone on the “roof of the world”. They were near the top of a thirty-metre-high wall of rock. It was called the Second Step. The top of Mount Qomolangma seemed right within reach. But no one had ever climbed the last few metres of the Second Step before.
Liu Lianman led the way. He tried four times. Each time, he fell back into the snow. The thin air took his strength away. “I’m not strong enough to try again,” he thought. So he chose to be a “human ladder” for his teammates! He lowered his body and let Qu Yinhua stand on his shoulders. Slowly, bit by bit, Liu stood up and helped Qu climb to the top. Every second was painful, but Liu stood still. And he did the same for Gong Bu. Then he and Wang Fuzhou climbed up with a rope.
But Liu was too tired to keep going. The team were worried, but they had to carry on. They gave Liu all their oxygen. It was dangerous to climb without oxygen, but they knew Liu needed it. They made every effort through the cold and dark. Hours later, they reached the top of the towering mountain at 4:20 am on 25 May. They were the first Chinese to do so! They were also the first people to climb the difficult North Ridge. What’s more, no one had done so without using oxygen.
When they returned to base camp, they were welcomed as heroes. People cheered for Liu, too. He did not reach the top, but he shouldered his team into China’s mountaineering history.
Task I: Finish the chart according to the article. Fill in each blank with no more than 3 words. 请根据以上短文内容填空,每空不超过3个单词。
Four Chinese climbers’ climb to Qomolangma
The four climbers were near ____41____ a thirty-meter-high rock wall.
Lianman ____42____ the way, though falling back into snow.
Teammates gave Liu all their ____43____.
They arrived at the towering mountain on ____44____.
