With a long history of over 1,800 years, it is considered as the world’s oldest computer. However, it is different from the modern computer. It uses an abacus (算盘) for counting. It is a symbol of the wisdom of the Chinese people. But it has lost its role in the 21st century. The 24 Solar Terms (2016) It is part of traditional Chinese culture. It was created by ancient Chinese people about 2,100 years ago. It shows the relationship between the climate and farming. And it plays an important role in Chinese agricultural (农业的) production and daily life. Tai Chi (2020) Tai Chi has been practiced in China for about 600 years. It is popular with the senior people in China, but few young people practice it. So the government is trying to encourage more young people to do Tai Chi. The Spring Festival (2024) On December 4th 2024, China’s application (申请) for the Spring Festival was officially included in the UNESCO Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity (联合国教科文组织非遗名录). We're proud of our rich customs. Let’s pass them on! 16. Chinese Zhusuan has a history of over ________ years. A. 600 B. 1,800 C. 2,100 D. 2,493 17. The newest intangible cultural heritage of humanity of China’s is ________. A. the 24 Solar Terms B. Tai Chi C. Chinese Zhusuan D. the Spring Festival 18. The 24 Solar Terms is used to ________. A. help with people’s farming B. show the climate across the country C. record plant culture D. make farmers remember the time easily 19. What can we learn from the passage? A. The Spring Festival isn’t an intangible cultural heritage. B. More and more young people want to practice Tai Chi. C. Liu Hong is a scientist in the 21st century. D. The abacus has lost its role today. 20. The passage is most probably from ________. A. a music magazine B. a culture magazine C. a school report D. a travel guide B Have you ever watched the famous Disney movie Tangled, which tells the story of Princess Rapunzel with long hair? Elsie Kennedy, 14, from Australia loved Princess Rapunzel very much, so she grew her hair down to her waist from childhood. However, her reason for keeping her long hair has changed recently. She decided to give it away to make a wig (假发) for a child with cancer. She got her first real haircut at her school, the Scone Grammar School, in 2024. She later gave away her hair to Wigs 4 Kids, a program run by Kids with Cancer Foundation in Australia. “I’ve never had a real haircut. My first haircut was when I was 7, and it was just a small trim (修剪),” Elsie said. “I’m excited to get a new look, but I’m also very happy that my hair will go to a good cause.” What’s more, Elsie tried to raise money for other kids with cancer. To do that, she asked her school for help to get the money and let more students know about the Kids with Cancer program. That was the reason why she had her hair cut at the school. Students were then encouraged to wear purple or donate some money to show support. Elsie chose the color purple as the theme because it was Rapunzel’s color. She always wears a beautiful long purple dress in the film Tangled. Aiming to raise $14,000, she had reached just over $10,000 by January 2025. “Knowing that my fundraising (筹集资金) will help kids and families go through a really hard time is amazing,” Elsie said. 21. Why did the writer mention the Disney movie Tangled in the first paragraph? A. To compare Elsie with Princess Rapunzel. B. To introduce a famous movie to the readers. C. To explain why Elsie started to grow long hair. D. To show the popularity of the movie among teenagers. 22. What does the underlined word “that” in Paragraph 3 refer to? A. Getting a new look. B. Having her hair cut at the school. C. Raising money for kids with cancer. D. Giving away her hair to make a wig. 23. What is Elsie like according to the passage? A. Shy and quiet. B. Talented and proud. C. Kind-hearted and helpful. D. Hard-working and clever. 24. Why did Elsie cut her hair at the school? A. Because her school asked students to have short hair. B. Because she wanted more students to notice her new look. C. Because her school provided cheaper hair cutting service. D. Because she wanted to raise money for kids with cancer. 25. Which would be the best title for the passage? A. Elsie’s Love for Tangled B. The Magic of Rapunzel’s Hair C. Wigs 4 Kids: A Great Program D. A Special Haircut with a Big Heart C These years, more e-waste recycling plans have been called for in China. What is E-Waste? E-waste is short for electronic waste, which refers to old technology that you are no longer using. It includes microwaves, computers, TVs, batteries (电池), screens, chargers, printer cartridges and even kitchen equipment. What is the Influence of E-Waste? According to the Global E-waste Monitor 2020, the world’s e-waste would reach 74.7 million tons by 2030. That’s almost a doubling of e-waste in just 16 years. This makes e-waste the world’s fastest-growing household waste. The report also found that only 17.4% of the world’s e-waste was collected and recycled in 2019. This meant that gold, silver, copper (铜) and other high-value materials were mostly burned or thrown instead of being reused. It was a waste of about 360 billion yuan. E-waste can also harm the environment and people’s health. For example, one mobile phone battery can pollute 600,000 liters of water. ________ Technology companies are looking for different ways to solve the problem. For example, a Chinese company built a robot called Reuz to take mobile phones apart. It can take 200 mobile phones apart within an hour. Previously the phones were cut up before people took the useful materials out. Now with Reuz, valuable materials can be pulled out more easily. There are some steps we can all take to reduce our e-waste. Here are my top tips: •Instead of buying a new product, try to repair your old one first. •Search for recycling organizations and give away your old electronics to them. •Take out all the batteries because they need to be recycled separately. •Give much publicity (宣传) in your community to raise people’s awareness of e-waste recycling. 26. Mobile phone batteries can be found in the ________. A. B. C. D. 27. How does the writer introduce the influence of e-waste? A. By telling a story. B. By giving numbers. C. By making a comparison. D. By using an example. 28. Which of the following is the best to fill in the ________? A. What Can We Do to Reduce It? B. Where Are Mobile Phones Taken Apart? C. What Problems Can E-Waste Bring Us? D. Who Are Ready to Solve the Problem? 29. What can we infer from the writer’s tips about e-waste recycling? A. Batteries can be recycled together with other old electronics. B. Raising public awareness is helpful for e-waste recycling. C. Repairing electronics is the most effective way to reduce e-waste. D. Donating old electronics is the only way to deal with e-waste. 30. What is the purpose of this passage? A. To introduce the history of electronic products development B. To warn readers about the dangers of using electronic devices C. To call on people to pay attention to e-waste and its recycling D. To teach readers how to repair old electronic products by themselves 第二节（共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。（选项中有一项为多余选项） Music is often divided into several categories (类别), or groups.
