Fanlihua is a special and traditional Chinese paper toy. It just looks like a simple stick wrapped (包) in colorful folded paper at first. However, if you give it a gentle twist, amazing things will happen. It opens into a round ball right away. If you keep turning it slowly, it can change into different lovely shapes, such as a beautiful flower and a lion’s open mouth. In fact, people can create about 20 different magic shapes with only one small stick.
Li Mei is a skillful inheritor (传承人) of this traditional fanlihua toy-making skill. She is 36 years old. In the past, she worked as an English teacher, and her old job had almost no connection with this traditional craft. This old craft has been passed down in her husband’s family workshop in Shandong for many years. As her father-in-law grew older, Li Mei decided to leave her teaching job to take over and continue the precious family craft.
The most special part of fanlihua is its rich changing shapes. It only needs cheap and common materials, just paper and sticks, but it can bring people much fun. Now Li Mei holds many community events and hands-on activities to teach people this craft. She once taught nearly 50 art students at Minzu University of China. Most students knew little about fanlihua before, but they showed great creativity when they dyed (染色) the colorful paper.
To let more people know this traditional craft, Li Mei even writes simple English rhymes (押韵诗) about how to play with fanlihua. She loves its amazing changes and the warm feeling of handmade crafts. She hopes to introduce fanlihua to foreign friends and let them feel the great and down-to-earth Chinese wisdom behind it.
36. Why did Li Mei leave her job as an English teacher?
A. Because she wanted to set up her own business.
B. Because she planned to learn skills of drawing.
C. Because her father-in-law was old and she needed to carry on the family craft.
D. Because she got a job at Minzu University.
37. Which of the following is TRUE?
A. Fanlihua can create more than 100 magic shapes.
B. Li Mei took part in many fanlihua competitions.
C. All the students had heard of fanlihua before class.
D. Li Mei writes English rhymes to introduce fanlihua.
38. What can we infer from Li Mei’s words in the last paragraph?
A. She wants more people abroad to know about fanlihua.
B. Chinese people already know everything about fanlihua.
C. English rhymes help change the shapes of fanlihua.
D. It’s hard for foreigners to play fanlihua well.

A creative 16-year-old student named Yang Jun’ao has invented a useful robot to help farmers pick lotus roots (莲藕).
Yang got his creative idea from his daily family life. Every summer, local farmers including his grandmother have to work long hours in the water fields to pick lotus roots. They always work outdoors under the burning hot summer sun. The work is not only tiring but also really difficult. What’s worse, the hard mud and sharp plants may hurt their hands easily. Seeing his grandmother feel tired and painful every year, Yang felt very worried. He finally decided to invent a special robot to take the place of humans in hard and dangerous work.
With professional (专业的) guidance and patient support from his teacher Hong Wei, Yang spent nearly one year trying different ways and finally finished his first robot model. This smart robot can move freely and safely in muddy lotus fields. It uses special technology to check the colour of lotus leaves and find out fully ripe (成熟的) lotus roots exactly. Once it finds the roots, its flexible robotic arm can cut them gently and perfectly without any damage.
The whole invention process was full of challenges. Yang met plenty of difficulties during the whole year. He needed to collect different model parts, put them together patiently again and again, and learn to use new tools like a hot glue gun (热熔枪). He even felt nervous and shaky when he tried these tools for the first time.
In the end, his hard work paid off. His grandmother was greatly surprised and pleased when she saw the functional robot. People who tried the robot also spoke highly of it. From this experience, Yang learned a valuable lesson: only inventions that serve real life have true value.

40. What led Yang Jun’ao to invent the robot?
A. His wish to win a big prize.
B. His plan to sell the robot.
C. His teacher’s requirement.
D. His grandma’s pain from picking lotus roots.
41. How does the robot find ripe lotus roots?
A. By listening to sounds.

Culture plays an important role in our ideas and habits of money. Whether we spend, save, borrow or lend money, our culture influences our choices. People from different cultural backgrounds have their own money-related habits, and these differences are easy to understand.
People in different countries have different ways of talking about money. Some people are unwilling to share their personal financial information with others. They seldom talk about how much they earn or how they spend their money. However, most Chinese people are willing to discuss earnings, house prices, savings and spending habits with close friends. By contrast, British people may talk about their daily spending, but they almost never share their earnings or savings with others.
People also have different payment habits. Although cards and mobile payment apps bring us great convenience, some cultures still prefer using cash. For example, Germans pay with cash for 80 percent of their shopping. They believe touching real money can make them clearly realize how much they are spending.
Saving habits also change from country to country. On average (平均), Chinese people save about 37% of their income. Spanish families only save 1.75%. Mexican families save 15%, while Russian families save nearly 8%.
Besides, gift-giving and pocket money cultures show cultural differences too. Most people will remove the price tag (标签) before giving a gift. But in China, for gifts like gold jewellery (黄金珠宝), it is common to keep the price tag. What’s more, some Chinese parents give kids pocket money for doing housework. In the UK, teenagers often take part-time jobs to learn to manage their own money.
It is interesting to learn about these cultural differences. No habit is right or wrong. We should respect different money cultures when we meet people from other countries.
43. What do British people hardly share with others?
A. Their earnings and savings. B. Their daily shopping experiences.
C. Their ideas about gift-giving. D. Their ways of making payments.
44. When do most people remove the price tag of a gift?
A. While choosing the gift. B. After receiving the gift.
C. Before giving the gift. D. When packing the gift.
45. Which country has the lowest average saving rate according to the passage?
A. China. B. Russia. C. Mexico. D. Spain.
46. What can we infer from the passage?
A. People from different cultures will never change their money habits.
B. Cultural differences exist in many small aspects of people’s daily life.
C. Using cash is a better way of payment than mobile payment.
D. Chinese people always show the price tags on every gift they send.
【答案】43. A 44. C 45. D 46. B
【解析】
【导语】本文主要探讨了文化在人们金钱观念和习惯中的重要作用。文章从谈论金钱的方式、支付习惯、储蓄习惯以及送礼和零花钱文化等方面,对比了中国、英国、德国、西班牙、墨西哥和俄罗斯等不同国家的差异。作者指出,这些习惯没有对错之分,我们应该尊重不同国家的金钱文化。
【43题详解】
细节理解题。第二段中提到:“By contrast, British people may talk about their daily spending, but they almost never share their earnings or savings with others.”,说明英国人几乎不与别人分享他们的收入和储蓄。
【44题详解】
细节理解题。第五段开头明确指出:“Most people will remove the price tag (标签) before giving a gift.”,说明大多数人会在送礼物之前去掉价格标签。
【45题详解】
细节理解题。第四段列举了各国的平均储蓄率:中国约37%,西班牙1.75%,墨西哥15%,俄罗斯近8%。比较可知,西班牙(Spain)的储蓄率最低(1.75%)。
【46题详解】
推理判断题。A项“永远不会改变”过于绝对;C项“现金比移动支付好”是德国人的观点,并非文章结论,且文章强调无对错之分;D项“总是展示标签”错误,文中说的是“for gifts like gold jewellery... it is common”,即针对黄金珠宝等特定礼物常见,而非所有礼物。B项“文化差异存在于人们日常生活的许多小方面”符合全文主旨,文章通过谈钱、支付、储蓄、送礼等生活细节展示了文化差异。

As autumn comes, migratory birds start their long journey. Welcome to one of the best places to watch migrating (迁徙) birds—the Yellow River Delta.
The Yellow River Delta (黄河三角洲) lies in Dongying, Shandong Province, where China’s mother river flows into the Bohai Sea. It is part of the Migratory Bird Sanctuaries (候鸟栖息地) along the Coast of the Yellow Sea-Bohai Gulf, which was added to the UNESCO World Heritage (联合国教科文组织世界遗产名录) List in 2024. People also call it“the international airport for birds”.
This is the youngest and most complete wetland in China’s warm temperate zone. When the river carries silt (淤泥) down and meets the sea, new land slowly forms year by year. Wide reed beds (芦苇丛) and red seepweed (盐地碱蓬) cover the land. If you visit in autumn, you will see the famous “Red Beach”, where the red plants stretch as far as your eyes can reach.
The delta sits on the East Asian-Australasian bird migration flyway that crosses 22 countries. Every year, millions of migratory birds stop here to rest, feed or raise their babies. Some rare birds, such as Oriental white storks (东方白鹳) and Saunders’s gulls (黑嘴鸥), choose this place to build their nests. Scientists use cameras and drones to watch the birds and protect their home.
However, this beautiful wetland still faces risks. Less silt arrives because of upstream dams (上游水坝), and rising sea levels also bring trouble. Workers have spent years carrying out wetland repair projects. They add water to dry areas and plant native plants to bring back good living conditions.
The Yellow River Delta shows the great power of nature. It also tells us that humans must live in peace with wildlife. When we protect wetlands, we are protecting our shared home on Earth.
47. What does the underlined word “stretch” in Paragraph 3 mean?
A. 消失 B. 改变 C. 延伸;绵延 D. 掉落
48. Why is the delta called “the international airport for birds”?
A. Because it has many modern airports nearby.
B. Because lots of migratory birds stop and live here.
C. Because birds can fly fast over the sea here.
D. Because it welcomes visitors from all countries.
49. What is the best title for the passage?
A. The Yellow River Delta World Heritage Wetland B. Beautiful Birds in Shandong Province
C. The History of the Yellow River D. How to Protect Sea Levels
【答案】47. C 48. B 49. A
【解析】
【导语】本文介绍了位于山东东营的黄河三角洲的基本情况,包括其世界遗产身份、独特的湿地景观、作为候鸟重要栖息地的作用,以及该湿地面临的生态风险与保护修复措施,传递了人类要与自然和谐共处的理念。
【47题详解】
词句猜测题。根据文章第3段“If you visit in autumn, you will see the famous “Red Beach”, where the red plants stretch as far as your eyes can reach.”,句中“as far as your eyes can reach”意为“尽你目光能到达的范围”,由此可推知红色的植物是沿着视野向远处延伸、绵延,stretch的含义是“延伸;绵延”。
【48题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第4段“Every year, millions of migratory birds stop here to rest, feed or raise their babies.”,黄河三角洲地处跨国候鸟迁徙路线上,每年有数百万候鸟在此停歇、觅食、繁殖,就像国际机场一样为鸟类提供中转栖息的场所,因此被称为“鸟类的国际机场”。
【49题详解】
最佳标题题。全文围绕黄河三角洲展开,依次介绍了它的地理位置、世界遗产地位、湿地景观、候鸟栖息地的作用,以及生态保护相关内容,核心描述对象是黄河三角洲这一世界遗产湿地,因此“The Yellow River Delta World Heritage Wetland”最适合作为文章标题。

What is the world’s second-largest continent (洲)? You’d be right to say Africa. However, if you look at the most common world map — the Mercator map (墨卡托地图) — you will never get this true idea. Surprisingly, the map makes huge Africa look almost as big as Greenland, which is much smaller in real life.
To solve this long-existing problem, countries at the United Nations (联合国) held a vote on September 4th. By a huge score of 164 to one, they agreed to widely use a new kind of map called the “Equal Earth” map. The US was the only country that voted against this new plan.
You may wonder why traditional maps show wrong sizes in the first place. The truth is that no flat map can be completely perfect. It is impossible to turn the 3D (三维的) surface of our round Earth into a 2D (二维的) flat map without changing its size or shape. Back in 1569, a man named Gerardus Mercator made the map mainly for sea travel. So, he chose to show shapes and directions accurately (精确地) rather than real land sizes.
Today, many schools still teach geography with the Mercator map, which brings negative influences. Experts point out that maps shape people’s imaginations (想象). When children always see Africa shown smaller than Europe, they may wrongly believe Africa is less important. What’s more, this old map once helped Europeans colonize (殖民) Africa. It is even called “a map made by Europe for Europe”.
This does not mean the Mercator map must disappear completely. However, the UN strongly advises governments, schools and map apps to make the change. As Togo’s foreign minister (外交部长) said, a fair world always begins with a fair map.
50. Who agreed to widely use the “Equal Earth” map after the vote?
A. Most UN member countries. B. Only the United States.
C. All European countries. D. Schools in Africa.
51. What is Paragraph 3 mainly about?
A. The history of the Mercator map.
B. The difficulty in showing Earth’s surface on 2D maps.
C. The importance of the Mercator map in sea travel.
D. The cause of the Mercator map’s size problems.
52. What do Togo’s foreign minister’s words suggest?
A. Maps help people improve their imagination.
B. Maps can be harmful if used wrongly.
C. Maps influence the way people think.
D. African children need better geography education.
【答案】50. A 51. D 52. C
【解析】
【导语】本文主要介绍了联合国投票通过推广使用“Equal Earth”地图以解决传统墨卡托地图面积失真问题,探讨了地图失真产生的技术原因及其对人们认知和想象的影响,强调了公平地图对公平世界的重要性。
【50题详解】
细节理解题。第2段“countries at the United Nations... By a huge score of 164 to one, they agreed to widely use a new kind of map”表明联合国成员国中以164票对1票的巨大比分同意使用该地图,说明绝大多数联合国成员国都同意了。
【51题详解】
主旨大意题。第3段“You may wonder why traditional maps show wrong sizes in the first place. The truth is that no flat map can be completely perfect.”表明,本段首句提出为何传统地图显示错误尺寸的问题,随后解释了将三维地球转为二维平面必然导致变形的技术原因,核心内容是解释墨卡托地图尺寸问题的成因。
【52题详解】
推理判断题。第5段“As Togo’s foreign minister said, a fair world always begins with a fair map.”并结合第4段“maps shape people’s imaginations”表明,外交部长认为公平的地图是公平世界的开端,暗示地图会影响人们对世界的认知和看法,即影响人们的思维方式。

阅读下列短文,并用英语回答问题(请注意每小题的词数要求)
Recently, an old story from the year 1999 has become popular on the Internet. Many years ago, a young boy called Chen Yuwen made a warm and moving decision. He gave all his 140 yuan to help our country build its first aircraft carrier (航空母舰). The official workers who received his kind money did not take it. Instead, they wrote a letter to praise his simple and true love for his motherland. After twenty-six years, many people are curious about what the boy is like now.
Chen Yuwen’s father fully supported his son’s meaningful choice. This small action tells us that every common person’s dream can be closely connected with the development of our country. When Chen was a little child, he saw terrible news. In 1999, after China’s embassy (大使馆) was attacked, he felt extremely sad and disappointed. He kept thinking about one question: if our country had a strong aircraft carrier at that time, would we still face such unfair treatment from other countries?
As time goes by, the little boy has grown into a responsible adult. He always cares about the development of our country’s military power. Today, when he watches our country own several modern and powerful aircraft carriers, he feels proud and satisfied. His simple childhood dream has finally come true step by step. He often says he is lucky to grow up together with the fast progress of China.
On November 10th, a famous Chinese shipbuilding company replied to his story online. They said his 140 yuan was just like a tiny seed of hope for our navy. Today’s powerful three-carrier navy is the best gift for his young and sincere dream. The company also invited Chen Yuwen for a visit and gave him a special watch about the Fujian carrier. The watch does not cost a lot of money, but it holds the most precious and unforgettable meaning.
Chen’s story teaches all teenagers a great lesson about patriotism (爱国主义). True patriotism never depends on great actions. Even small love and simple wishes from ordinary people can light up the future of our country.
53. What did Chen want to build with his 140 yuan?(答案不超过5个词)
________________________________________________________________________
54. How did officials reply to Chen’s donation?(答案不超过10个词)
________________________________________________________________________
55. What can we learn from the story?(答案不超过10个词)
________________________________________________________________________
【答案】53. Our country’s first aircraft carrier.
54. They refused money and wrote a letter.
55. Even small love and simple wishes can show true patriotism.
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文,讲述了1999年少年陈虞文捐出140元零花钱支持国家建造第一艘航空母舰的故事,以及26年后他的梦想成真、爱国情怀得到回应的感人经历。
【53题详解】
根据第一段“He gave all his 140 yuan to help our country build its first aircraft carrier.”可知,陈虞文捐款是为了帮助国家建造第一艘航空母舰。
【54题详解】
根据第一段“The official workers who received his kind money did not take it. Instead, they wrote a letter to praise his simple and true love for his motherland.”可知,工作人员没有收下这笔钱,而是写了一封信表扬他。
【55题详解】
根据最后一段“True patriotism never depends on great actions. Even small love and simple wishes from ordinary people can light up the future of our country.”可知,真正的爱国主义不取决于伟大的行动,普通人小小的爱和朴素的心愿也能照亮国家的未来。

A
Fanlihua is a special and traditional Chinese paper toy. It just looks like a simple stick wrapped (包) in colorful folded paper at first. However, if you give it a gentle twist, amazing things will happen. It opens into a round ball right away. If you keep turning it slowly, it can change into different lovely shapes, such as a beautiful flower and a lion’s open mouth. In fact, people can create about 20 different magic shapes with only one small stick.
Li Mei is a skillful inheritor (传承人) of this traditional fanlihua toy-making skill. She is 36 years old. In the past, she worked as an English teacher, and her old job had almost no connection with this traditional craft. This old craft has been passed down in her husband’s family workshop in Shandong for many years. As her father-in-law grew older, Li Mei decided to leave her teaching job to take over and continue the precious family craft.
The most special part of fanlihua is its rich changing shapes. It only needs cheap and common materials, just paper and sticks, but it can bring people much fun. Now Li Mei holds many community events and hands-on activities to teach people this craft. She once taught nearly 50 art students at Minzu University of China. Most students knew little about fanlihua before, but they showed great creativity when they dyed (染色) the colorful paper.
To let more people know this traditional craft, Li Mei even writes simple English rhymes (押韵诗) about how to play with fanlihua. She loves its amazing changes and the warm feeling of handmade crafts. She hopes to introduce fanlihua to foreign friends and let them feel the great and down-to-earth Chinese wisdom behind it.
36. Why did Li Mei leave her job as an English teacher?
A. Because she wanted to set up her own business.
B. Because she planned to learn skills of drawing.
C. Because her father-in-law was old and she needed to carry on the family craft.
D. Because she got a job at Minzu University.
37. Which of the following is TRUE?
A. Fanlihua can create more than 100 magic shapes.
B. Li Mei took part in many fanlihua competitions.
C. All the students had heard of fanlihua before class.
D. Li Mei writes English rhymes to introduce fanlihua.
38. What can we infer from Li Mei’s words in the last paragraph?

D. It’s hard for foreigners to play fanlihua well.

A creative 16-year-old student named Yang Jun’ao has invented a useful robot to help farmers pick lotus roots (莲藕).
Yang got his creative idea from his daily family life. Every summer, local farmers including his grandmother have to work long hours in the water fields to pick lotus roots. They always work outdoors under the burning hot summer sun. The work is not only tiring but also really difficult. What’s worse, the hard mud and sharp plants may hurt their hands easily. Seeing his grandmother feel tired and painful every year, Yang felt very worried. He finally decided to invent a special robot to take the place of humans in hard and dangerous work.
With professional (专业的) guidance and patient support from his teacher Hong Wei, Yang spent nearly one year trying different ways and finally finished his first robot model. This smart robot can move freely and safely in muddy lotus fields. It uses special technology to check the colour of lotus leaves and find out fully ripe (成熟的) lotus roots exactly. Once it finds the roots, its flexible robotic arm can cut them gently and perfectly without any damage.
The whole invention process was full of challenges. Yang met plenty of difficulties during the whole year. He needed to collect different model parts, put them together patiently again and again, and learn to use new tools like a hot glue gun (热熔枪). He even felt nervous and shaky when he tried these tools for the first time.
In the end, his hard work paid off. His grandmother was greatly surprised and pleased when she saw the functional robot. People who tried the robot also spoke highly of it. From this experience, Yang learned a valuable lesson: only inventions that serve real life have true value.

Culture plays an important role in our ideas and habits of money. Whether we spend, save, borrow or lend money, our culture influences our choices. People from different cultural backgrounds have their own money-related habits, and these differences are easy to understand.
People in different countries have different ways of talking about money. Some people are unwilling to share their personal financial information with others. They seldom talk about how much they earn or how they spend their money. However, most Chinese people are willing to discuss earnings, house prices, savings and spending habits with close friends. By contrast, British people may talk about their daily spending, but they almost never share their earnings or savings with others.
People also have different payment habits. Although cards and mobile payment apps bring us great convenience, some cultures still prefer using cash. For example, Germans pay with cash for 80 percent of their shopping. They believe touching real money can make them clearly realize how much they are spending.
Saving habits also change from country to country. On average (平均), Chinese people save about 37% of their income. Spanish families only save 1.75%. Mexican families save 15%, while Russian families save nearly 8%.
Besides, gift-giving and pocket money cultures show cultural differences too. Most people will remove the price tag (标签) before giving a gift. But in China, for gifts like gold jewellery (黄金珠宝), it is common to keep the price tag. What’s more, some Chinese parents give kids pocket money for doing housework. In the UK, teenagers often take part-time jobs to learn to manage their own money.
It is interesting to learn about these cultural differences. No habit is right or wrong. We should respect different money cultures when we meet people from other countries.
43. What do British people hardly share with others?
A. Their earnings and savings. B. Their daily shopping experiences.
C. Their ideas about gift-giving. D. Their ways of making payments.
44. When do most people remove the price tag of a gift?
A. While choosing the gift. B. After receiving the gift.
C. Before giving the gift. D. When packing the gift.
45. Which country has the lowest average saving rate according to the passage?
A. China. B. Russia. C. Mexico. D. Spain.
46. What can we infer from the passage?
A. People from different cultures will never change their money habits.
B. Cultural differences exist in many small aspects of people’s daily life.
C. Using cash is a better way of payment than mobile payment.
D. Chinese people always show the price tags on every gift they send.

As autumn comes, migratory birds start their long journey. Welcome to one of the best places to watch migrating (迁徙) birds—the Yellow River Delta.
The Yellow River Delta (黄河三角洲) lies in Dongying, Shandong Province, where China’s mother river flows into the Bohai Sea. It is part of the Migratory Bird Sanctuaries (候鸟栖息地) along the Coast of the Yellow Sea-Bohai Gulf, which was added to the UNESCO World Heritage (联合国教科文组织世界遗产名录) List in 2024. People also call it“the international airport for birds”.
This is the youngest and most complete wetland in China’s warm temperate zone. When the river carries silt (淤泥) down and meets the sea, new land slowly forms year by year. Wide reed beds (芦苇丛) and red seepweed (盐地碱蓬) cover the land. If you visit in autumn, you will see the famous “Red Beach”, where the red plants stretch as far as your eyes can reach.
The delta sits on the East Asian-Australasian bird migration flyway that crosses 22 countries. Every year, millions of migratory birds stop here to rest, feed or raise their babies. Some rare birds, such as Oriental white storks (东方白鹳) and Saunders’s gulls (黑嘴鸥), choose this place to build their nests. Scientists use cameras and drones to watch the birds and protect their home.
However, this beautiful wetland still faces risks. Less silt arrives because of upstream dams (上游水坝), and rising sea levels also bring trouble. Workers have spent years carrying out wetland repair projects. They add water to dry areas and plant native plants to bring back good living conditions.
The Yellow River Delta shows the great power of nature. It also tells us that humans must live in peace with wildlife. When we protect wetlands, we are protecting our shared home on Earth.
47. What does the underlined word “stretch” in Paragraph 3 mean?
A. 消失 B. 改变 C. 延伸;绵延 D. 掉落
48. Why is the delta called “the international airport for birds”?
A. Because it has many modern airports nearby.
B. Because lots of migratory birds stop and live here.
C. Because birds can fly fast over the sea here.
D. Because it welcomes visitors from all countries.
49. What is the best title for the passage?
A. The Yellow River Delta World Heritage Wetland B. Beautiful Birds in Shandong Province
C. The History of the Yellow River D. How to Protect Sea Levels

What is the world’s second-largest continent (洲)? You’d be right to say Africa. However, if you look at the most common world map — the Mercator map (墨卡托地图) — you will never get this true idea. Surprisingly, the map makes huge Africa look almost as big as Greenland, which is much smaller in real life.
To solve this long-existing problem, countries at the United Nations (联合国) held a vote on September 4th. By a huge score of 164 to one, they agreed to widely use a new kind of map called the “Equal Earth” map. The US was the only country that voted against this new plan.
You may wonder why traditional maps show wrong sizes in the first place. The truth is that no flat map can be completely perfect. It is impossible to turn the 3D (三维的) surface of our round Earth into a 2D (二维的) flat map without changing its size or shape. Back in 1569, a man named Gerardus Mercator made the map mainly for sea travel. So, he chose to show shapes and directions accurately (精确地) rather than real land sizes.
Today, many schools still teach geography with the Mercator map, which brings negative influences. Experts point out that maps shape people’s imaginations (想象). When children always see Africa shown smaller than Europe, they may wrongly believe Africa is less important. What’s more, this old map once helped Europeans colonize (殖民) Africa. It is even called “a map made by Europe for Europe”.
This does not mean the Mercator map must disappear completely. However, the UN strongly advises governments, schools and map apps to make the change. As Togo’s foreign minister (外交部长) said, a fair world always begins with a fair map.
50. Who agreed to widely use the “Equal Earth” map after the vote?
A. Most UN member countries. B. Only the United States.
C. All European countries. D. Schools in Africa.
51. What is Paragraph 3 mainly about?
A. The history of the Mercator map.
B. The difficulty in showing Earth’s surface on 2D maps.
C. The importance of the Mercator map in sea travel.
D. The cause of the Mercator map’s size problems.
52. What do Togo’s foreign minister’s words suggest?
A. Maps help people improve their imagination.
B. Maps can be harmful if used wrongly.
C. Maps influence the way people think.
D. African children need better geography education.

阅读下列短文,并用英语回答问题(请注意每小题的词数要求)
Recently, an old story from the year 1999 has become popular on the Internet. Many years ago, a young boy called Chen Yuwen made a warm and moving decision. He gave all his 140 yuan to help our country build its first aircraft carrier (航空母舰). The official workers who received his kind money did not take it. Instead, they wrote a letter to praise his simple and true love for his motherland. After twenty-six years, many people are curious about what the boy is like now.
Chen Yuwen’s father fully supported his son’s meaningful choice. This small action tells us that every common person’s dream can be closely connected with the development of our country. When Chen was a little child, he saw terrible news. In 1999, after China’s embassy (大使馆) was attacked, he felt extremely sad and disappointed. He kept thinking about one question: if our country had a strong aircraft carrier at that time, would we still face such unfair treatment from other countries?
As time goes by, the little boy has grown into a responsible adult. He always cares about the development of our country’s military power. Today, when he watches our country own several modern and powerful aircraft carriers, he feels proud and satisfied. His simple childhood dream has finally come true step by step. He often says he is lucky to grow up together with the fast progress of China.
On November 10th, a famous Chinese shipbuilding company replied to his story online. They said his 140 yuan was just like a tiny seed of hope for our navy. Today’s powerful three-carrier navy is the best gift for his young and sincere dream. The company also invited Chen Yuwen for a visit and gave him a special watch about the Fujian carrier. The watch does not cost a lot of money, but it holds the most precious and unforgettable meaning.
Chen’s story teaches all teenagers a great lesson about patriotism (爱国主义). True patriotism never depends on great actions. Even small love and simple wishes from ordinary people can light up the future of our country.
53. What did Chen want to build with his 140 yuan?(答案不超过5个词)
