In ancient times, people sent messages by smoke signals or carried letters on horseback. It could take weeks or even months for a letter to reach a faraway place. Later, the telegraph and telephone changed the way people communicated. However, only a few people could afford them. Today, communication has become much faster and easier. With smartphones and the Internet, people can send messages, make video calls, and share photos instantly. Wechat and QQ are very popular among Chinese people. Social media platforms allow people to stay connected with friends and family no matter where they are. The changes in communication have greatly influenced our daily lives. In the past, people had to wait for a long time to get news from others. Now, we can know what is happening around the world in seconds. This convenience has made the world feel smaller and closer. However, some people worry that too much time spent on screens may weaken face-to-face communication skills. Despite these challenges, communication technology continues to develop. It has brought people closer together and made information more accessible. As technology keeps improving, we can expect even more exciting changes in the future. 21.

They are a new way of growing food in cities. Unlike traditional farms that need a lot of land, vertical farms grow crops in tall buildings. This idea is becoming more and more popular in China as cities grow bigger and land becomes less available. One of the largest vertical farms in China is in a city in Jiangsu. Scientists there grow vegetables in a building with many floors. Each floor has rows of plants that grow under special LED lights. The temperature and humidity are carefully controlled to make sure the plants grow well. This method uses much less water than traditional farming because water is recycled in the system. In the past, people had to travel far to buy fresh vegetables. Now, vertical farms in cities can provide fresh vegetables to local supermarkets. The food does not need to travel long distances, so it stays fresher and is better for the environment. Vertical farming has many advantages. It can produce food all year round, no matter what the weather is like outside. It also uses less land and water, which makes it a good choice for cities. Moreover, it creates jobs for local people. As more cities face the problem of feeding a growing population, vertical farming might be a helpful solution. However, vertical farming also has some challenges. The cost of building and running a vertical farm is high. The special lights and climate control systems use a lot of electricity. Scientists are working hard to find ways to make vertical farming more affordable. They hope that one day, every city will be able to grow its own food this way. 36. Where do vertical farms grow crops? A. On the ground in the countryside. B. In tall buildings in cities. C. Under the sea. D. In small gardens. 37. How does vertical farming use water? A. It wastes a lot of water. B. It uses more water than traditional farming. C. It recycles water in the system. D. It does not need any water. 38. How does the writer support the main idea of paragraph 3? A. By giving examples. B. By asking questions. C. By listing numbers. D. By comparing with the past. 39. In which part of a newspaper can you probably read this text? A. Sports. B. Travel. C. Science. D. People. 40. What can be the best title for the text? A. Traditional Farms in China B. The Future of Vertical Farming C. How to Grow Vegetables D. The Problems of Cities 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。 Do you know what life was like in your grandparents’ childhood? It was probably very different from today. 41 Let’s take a look at some of the biggest changes. In the past, people used to write letters to communicate with family and friends far away. 42 Now, we have smartphones and the Internet. We can send messages, make video calls, and share photos in seconds. This change has made the world feel much smaller. Transportation has also improved a lot. People used to travel by bus or train, and it often took a long time to get to another city. 43 It has made traveling faster and more convenient. 44 In the past, most families lived in small houses or apartments. Now, many people live in modern buildings with better facilities. The development of technology has brought many new appliances into homes, making daily life easier. These changes have brought many benefits to our lives. However, it is also important to remember the good things from the past, like the joy of receiving a handwritten letter or the time spent with family without screens. 45 A. People’s living conditions have improved greatly. B. It would take weeks for a letter to arrive. C. Life was much harder in the past than it is now. D. We should value both the past and the present.
