The new HSK test was launched by Hanban in an effort to better serve Chinese language learners. The new exam combines the advantages of the original HSK while taking into consideration recent trends in Chinese language training.
The new HSK is an international standardized exam that tests and rates Chinese language proficiency (水平). It assesses non-native Chinese speakers’ abilities in using the Chinese language in their daily, academic and professional lives.
Ⅰ. Test Levels
The levels of the new HSK correspond to the levels of the Chinese Language Proficiency Scales for Speakers of Other Languages (CLPS) and the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEF) as follows:

Ⅱ. Test Principles
The new HSK follows the principle of “test-teaching correlation”, bases the design of the test on the current trends in international Chinese language training, and is closely related to textbooks. The purpose of the test is to “promote training through testing” and “promote learning through testing”.
Ⅲ. Results Certificate
Test takers will receive the results for the new HSK issued by Hanban within one month after the test.
The HSK certificate has permanent validity, whereas the accompanying test report will only be valid (有效的) for two years (beginning from the date of the test session) as certification for foreign students to enter a college or university in China.

You need to speak at least basic English, the main language spoken at most projects. Some projects in Latin America will ask you to speak basic Spanish.
Besides, volunteer projects working with wild and more dangerous animals accept volunteers aged 18 but there is no age limit upwards — as long as you are physically fit and ready for a challenge, you are the perfect person to volunteer.

主题语境03 人与自然-环境
(25-26高一上·江西省部分学校·期中)In the long search for a greener food system, animals kept on farms are a mixed blessing.
Farm Animals: Both Helpful and Harmful
On the one hand, by changing plants that people can’t eat into meat and milk, animals, like cows and sheep, are an important source of human food. And for many of the world’s poorest, raising a cow or two can be a key source of wealth.
But those advantages come at a great environmental cost. A study carried out in 2013 showed that animals make up about 14.5% of greenhouse gas emissions (排放), more than all the world’s cars and trucks. And about 40% of animals’ emissions come in the form of methane (甲烷), a powerful greenhouse gas formed as the animals break down the food in their stomachs.
The Search for Solutions
That situation is driving a great research effort to cut down greenhouse gas emissions from animals that eat plants. Present ways, including improved farming practices and recently developed feed additives (添加剂), can help, but are not enough to have a big influence on the whole world. So scientists are looking into new possible solutions, such as changing the small living things that produce the methane in animals’ stomachs and making them give off less methane. While much more research is needed before those new methods take effect, they could be relatively easy to carry out widely and could finally have a big effect.
Good News about Methane
Methane is a relatively short-lived greenhouse gas. While the CO2 let out today will stay in the environment for more than a century, today’s methane will wash out in little more than 10 years. So solving the problem of methane emissions now can lower greenhouse gas levels and help slow global warming immediately.
1.What is farming’s share of US greenhouse gas emissions in 2022?
A. 9.4%. B. 14.5%. C. 40%. D. 85%.
2.Which is a new way to cut down greenhouse gas emissions?
A. Developing feed additives.
B. Keeping low-methane animals.
C. Improving farming practices.
D. Checking animals’ stomachs from time to time.
3.What is a difference between methane and CO2 according to the text?
A. Methane is easier to control than CO2.
B. Methane is let out by animals while CO2 is not.
C. Methane is a more powerful greenhouse gas than CO2.
D. Methane stays in the air for a much shorter time than CO2.
【答案】1. A 2. B 3. D
【解析】【导语】
本文是一篇应用文,文章介绍了牲畜产生的温室气体对全球变暖的影响和研究降低牲畜甲烷排放的新方法对自然环境的保护作用。
(1)题解析:
细节理解题。根据饼状图中的数据信息可知,2022年美国农业温室气体排放占比为9.4%。故选A项。
(2)题解析:
细节理解题。根据The Search for Solutions部分的“So scientists are looking into new possible solutions, such as changing the small living things that produce the methane in animals’stomachs and making them give off less methane.( 因此,科学家们正在研究新的潜在解决方案,例如改造动物胃中产生甲烷的微生物,让它们释放更少的甲烷)”可知,科学家们正在研究的新方法包括改变动物胃中使动物排放甲烷的微生物,使动物排放更少甲烷,也就是培育出低甲烷排放动物。故选B项。
(3)题解析:
细节理解题。根据最后一段中的“While the CO₂ let out today will stay in the environment for more than a century, today’s methane will wash out in little more than 10 years.( 如今排放的二氧化碳会在环境中留存一个多世纪,而当下排放的甲烷则只需十余年左右便会从环境中消散)”可知,与二氧化碳相比,甲烷在环境中停留的时间短。故选D项。

The new HSK test was launched by Hanban in an effort to better serve Chinese language learners. The new exam combines the advantages of the original HSK while taking into consideration recent trends in Chinese language training.
The new HSK is an international standardized exam that tests and rates Chinese language proficiency (水平). It assesses non-native Chinese speakers’ abilities in using the Chinese language in their daily, academic and professional lives.
Ⅰ. Test Levels
The levels of the new HSK correspond to the levels of the Chinese Language Proficiency Scales for Speakers of Other Languages (CLPS) and the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEF) as follows:

主题语境03 人与自然-环境
(25-26高一上·江西省部分学校·期中)In the long search for a greener food system, animals kept on farms are a mixed blessing.
Farm Animals: Both Helpful and Harmful
On the one hand, by changing plants that people can’t eat into meat and milk, animals, like cows and sheep, are an important source of human food. And for many of the world’s poorest, raising a cow or two can be a key source of wealth.
But those advantages come at a great environmental cost. A study carried out in 2013 showed that animals make up about 14.5% of greenhouse gas emissions (排放), more than all the world’s cars and trucks. And about 40% of animals’ emissions come in the form of methane (甲烷), a powerful greenhouse gas formed as the animals break down the food in their stomachs.
The Search for Solutions
That situation is driving a great research effort to cut down greenhouse gas emissions from animals that eat plants. Present ways, including improved farming practices and recently developed feed additives (添加剂), can help, but are not enough to have a big influence on the whole world. So scientists are looking into new possible solutions, such as changing the small living things that produce the methane in animals’ stomachs and making them give off less methane. While much more research is needed before those new methods take effect, they could be relatively easy to carry out widely and could finally have a big effect.
Good News about Methane
Methane is a relatively short-lived greenhouse gas. While the CO2 let out today will stay in the environment for more than a century, today’s methane will wash out in little more than 10 years. So solving the problem of methane emissions now can lower greenhouse gas levels and help slow global warming immediately.
1.What is farming’s share of US greenhouse gas emissions in 2022?
A. 9.4%. B. 14.5%. C. 40%. D. 85%.
2.Which is a new way to cut down greenhouse gas emissions?
A. Developing feed additives.
B. Keeping low-methane animals.
C. Improving farming practices.
D. Checking animals’ stomachs from time to time.
3.What is a difference between methane and CO2 according to the text?
A. Methane is easier to control than CO2.
B. Methane is let out by animals while CO2 is not.
C. Methane is a more powerful greenhouse gas than CO2.
D. Methane stays in the air for a much shorter time than CO2.

Tent Camping
This is the most basic and common way of camping. You can put up a tent in a park, on the beach, in the woods, or anywhere else you like, enjoying a few nights. Tent camping is a great choice for people who don’t want to spend a lot of money to get started. It is perfect for families with children because it creates a special time for parents and kids.
Hiking Camping
Hiking camping, also known as backpacking, is a type of outdoor camping where you spend the whole day hiking with necessary equipment (设备) on your back. It can last anywhere from a few days to several months. It gives you the chance to get closer to nature. In case of an emergency (紧急情况), you’d better share your travel plans with someone.
Survival Camping
In this type of camping, you need to learn a variety of skills to stay safe in various outdoor conditions. You will search for food on your own in the wild and take emergency medical measures in the event of danger. It would be a good idea to have a partner with a wealth of experience in the wild.
RV Camping
If you go camping in a motorhome (旅宿车), you will have more time to enjoy the outdoors. With a motorhome, you have almost everything at home, including comfortable beds, kitchens and entertainment. A key step is to find a suitable place for parking. You can also cook and enjoy food in the car and it will feel great. However, this is not recommended for beginners.
