(2026·浙江金丽衢十二校联考)The rich aroma of freshly roasted coffee filled the air inside a quaint stone cabin in the eastern Chinese village that houses Frank Sterzer's café： Bamboo Coffee Roasters.

After more than 20 years as an engineer and executive with leading automobile companies in Germany and China, Frank has found a new calling and fulfillment in the village of Maoli near Ningbo in Zhejiang Province. Inspired by his lifelong love of coffee, a passion for roasting beans prompted Frank to turn what had been a hobby into a thriving business. “Zhejiang's countryside has excellent infrastructure and beautiful landscapes, and I find it the ideal place to start my business，” Frank says. Maoli is located less than a 30-minute drive from the Ningbo city center, striking a pleasing balance between urban convenience and rural tranquility.

For Frank, the experience of sipping a cup of coffee while enjoying a slice of handmade cake and gazing at the countryside, captures the type of serene lifestyle he hopes to share with visitors. “Bamboo Coffee Roasters is a place to share the charm of this mountain village with visitors from all over the world，” he explains.

The café is named after the abundance of bamboo around Maoli, while its logo was inspired by a photograph Frank took of a nearby bamboo forest. He has also created a small coffee factory behind the shop front, where excellent beans from around the world are neatly stacked next to gently humming roasting machines. He roasts 10 metric tons a year. All these have become key components of the café's success.

Since opening in June 2024, Bamboo Coffee Roasters has quickly become a popular destination, attracting visitors from near and far including international travelers taking advantage of China's expanded visa-free policies. Frank's own family took advantage of this policy, with his mother

and siblings visiting last year.

Before the Spring Festival, the café was welcoming guests from all over, including nearby cities like Hangzhou and Shanghai. “We came to Ningbo for local delicacies and business, purchasing local produce. Products such as honey oranges, bamboo shoots and tea have also found wider markets, thanks to the café's popularity，” one tourist said.

(2026·长沙二模)Rice, one of the most consumed staple foods globally, holds a universal appeal that goes beyond cultural and geographical boundaries. This humble grain, grown in over 100 countries, is a primary food source for nearly half of the world's population.

As one of the oldest cultivated crops, rice has played a central role in shaping cooking traditions, economies, and cultures around the world. Archaeological evidence suggests that rice was first grown over 10，000 years ago in the regions of ancient China. It has since spread globally, becoming a necessary part of numerous cultures. The spread of rice cultivation followed ancient trade routes, reaching the Middle East, Africa and eventually Europe and the Americas. In China and India, rice has been a staple food for a thousand years, deeply embedded in both daily life and rituals. Rice cultivation techniques and varieties developed in these regions have significantly influenced rice agriculture globally.

Rice holds a place of great importance in Asian cuisine, serving as a main food and a cultural symbol across many countries in the region. Each
