As an old saying in China goes, “The days of the Sanjiu period are the coldest days.” “Sanjiu period”, which is in Minor Cold (小寒), refers to the third nine-day period (the 19th to the 27th day) after the day of the Winter Solstice (冬至). There are many different customs related to Minor Cold in China. Eating hotpot During Minor Cold people should eat some hot food to benefit the body and defend against the cold weather. Winter is the best time to have hotpot and braised mutton with soy sauce. But it is important to notice that too much spicy food may cause health problems. Eating huangyacai In Tianjin, there is a custom to have huangyacai, a kind of Chinese cabbage, during Minor Cold. There are large amounts of vitamins A and B in huangyacai. As huangyacai is fresh and tender, it is fit for frying, roasting and braising. Eating glutinous rice (糯米饭) According to tradition, the Cantonese eat glutinous rice in the morning during Minor Cold. Cantonese people add some fried preserved pork, sausages and peanuts and mix them into the rice. Eating vegetable rice In ancient times, people in Nanjing took Minor Cold quite seriously, but as time went by, the celebration of Minor Cold gradually disappeared. However, the custom of eating vegetable rice is still followed today. The rice is steamed and is incredibly delicious. Among the ingredients (原料), aijiaohuang (a kind of green vegetable), sausages and salted duck are the specialties in Nanjing. 【1】What do we know about Minor Cold? A.It lasts twenty-seven days.

Every week, two converted blue buses packed with children’s books carefully drive along the streets of Kabul, avoiding areas where deadly explosions are common. These travelling libraries stop off at schools in different parts of the city, delivering a wealth of reading material directly to youngsters who have limited access to books. “A lot of schools in our city don’t have access to something as basic as a library,” says Freshta Karim, a 27-year-old Oxford University graduate who was inspired to start Charmaghz, a non-profit organization, in her home city having grown up without many books herself. “We were trying to understand what we could do to promote critical thinking in our country.” While for many people a bus or train journey presents a rare opportunity to get stuck into a book, in some cities public transport is being used as means of getting books to communities that need them most. Afghanistan, for example, has one of the world’s lowest literacy rates, with only three in 10 adults able to read, according to UNESCO. The majority of public schools in Kabul do not have libraries and the city’s libraries do not offer many children’s books. For Karim, buses were a cost-effective, efficient way to get books to children. Charmarghz rents them from a state-owned bus company. “We go to nearby schools,” she says. “We try to stop inside communities rather than on the main streets where explosions often happen.” The organization is funded by donations from local business and communities, and also rents a third bus that acts as a mobile cinema. Over 600 children visit the buses each day to read, socialise and play games. “They are often very excited,” she says. “Our biggest challenge is that so many children want to come inside the bus, but we can’t have all of them in one day.” 【1】Why does Freshta Karim set up the organization? A.To raise money for the poor. B.To recycle abandoned buses. C.To build libraries for the local schools. D.To offer the children more reading opportunities. 【2】What is special about Charmarghz? A.It’s funded by UNESCO. B.It’s a state-owned organization. C.It buys buses from a company. D.It aims to inspire critical thinking. 【3】What is the most pressing problem for Charmarghz? A.Deadly explosions. B.Poor public transport system. C.Shortage of travelling libraries. D.Lack of support from the government. 【4】Which of the following best describes Freshta Karim? A.Caring and courageous. B.Humorous and ambitious. C.Demanding and enthusiastic. D.Honest and hardworking. |

Posing for a picture and flashing the V sign may expose your fingerprints, giving criminals an opportunity to steal your important information. Researchers with the National Institute of Informatics in Japan successfully got fingerprint information from a picture during an experiment, even though the subject was photographed from three meters away, according to the newspaper. “Once you share them on social media then they’re gone. Unlike a password you can’t change your fingers.” Biometric（生物统计的） security is reaching the mainstream with more than 50 percent of mobile phones set to include fingerprint recognition for the first time in 2017. The technology is also used in immigration control and for access to high-security controlled areas. Photos that include both people's faces and fingers run a higher risk of revealing personal information, and the risk for celebrities is even higher. Chinese experts in fingerprint identification confirmed the possibility. "Technically, we can use high-definition video cameras to obtain people's fingerprints," said Dr. Yin Desen of the First Institute of the Ministry of Public Security. He also said that people's external features are easily recorded. However, compared to video, it is more difficult to obtain fingerprints through just one photo. According to experts, criminals are able to use counterfeit fingerprints to commit crimes, such as stealing fingerprint passwords and signing agreements. Yin warned that people should pay more attention when they leave fingerprints or use them as passwords. 【1】What is the difference between passwords and fingerprints? A.Passwords can be changed. B.It is simple to recognize fingerprints. C.Fingerprints have a higher security level. D.Passwords depend on users’ experience. 【2】Which of the following statements is not mentioned as the use of biometric security? A.Fingerprint recognition. B.Immigration control. C.Vehicle identification. D.High-security controlled area. 【3】What does the underlined word “counterfeit” probably mean in the last paragraph? A.Reliable. B.False. C.Genuine. D.Unique. 【4】What can we infer from the text? A.People should use passwords. B.All the photos run a high risk of exposing personal information. C.Passwords can be more easily stolen than fingerprints. D.It’s easier to give away information of fingerprints through video. |

Mr. Fang is now the owner of 36 greenhouses producing organic vegetables in the Gobi desert in Northwest China’s Gansu province. He is one of the beneficiaries of the Gobi Farming Program of Gansu province that is building rows of greenhouses in the desert to help transform local farming and alleviate poverty. Grain production in Gansu is greatly affected by the climate and the output is unstable. Agricultural production there relies heavily on rivers, oases and groundwater irrigation. If traditional extensive agricultural production continued, it could gradually narrow the living space. In 1995, a local entrepreneur ventured to use Israeli technologies to build greenhouses for vegetables growing in the desert. Such individual pilot projects encouraged the Gansu government to launch a provincial-level Gobi farming program in 2017 with a target to build up a controlled-environment agriculture of about 20,000 hectares by 2022. Some cities in the province, which include Fang’s village, have already been experimenting with Gobi farming for several years. Despite the harsh environment, farming in the Gobi desert has its advantages: the extended amount of sunlight provides adequate energy for crops, a significant temperature difference between day and night helps crops accumulate nutrients and the Gobi’s hot and dry air means fewer pests and crop diseases. The Gobi greenhouses popping up in Gansu use drip and spray irrigation, which can cut water consumption by almost 50 percent compared to a normal farm. The greenhouses are also eco-friendly, as they use substrates for soilless cultivation recycled from rotten leaves, straw and cow and sheep feces. With the greenhouses, Fang earns around 70,000 yuan annually. Data from Suzhou. district of Jiuquan showed the greenhouse program has helped bring an average revenue of about $ 72,300 per hectare to local farmers. Large scale greenhouse farming is an investment-intensive project and cannot be sustained only by government financial support. Therefore, the local government has been encouraging villagers such as Fang to take the lead to rent greenhouses or build their own. It is not an easy task, and many villagers still want to wait and see. However, more and more are starting to join in,either to rum their own greenhouses or work as hired workers for greenhouse owners. Starting from managing four greenhouses in 2009, Fang now is also a partner of a greenhouse farming cooperative running 120 greenhouses. The relatively low cost of large-scale land use in the Gobi desert have also encouraged large firms to start their Gobi farming pilot projects in Gansu. If the Gobi farming proves successful, it could provide experiences for countries in Central Asia linked with Gansu both by the ancient Silk Road as well as its modern version of the Belt and Road Initiative. 【1】What affects grain production in Gansu most? A.Money. B.Sunlight. C.Air D.Water. 【2】What does the Gobi Farming Program aim to do? A.Change the local climate. B.Make the local residents rich. C.Protect the traditional agricultural production. D.Help university students start their own business. 【3】What can we learn from the text? A.The harsh environment is good for crops . B.At first, Fang only ran four greenhouses. C.With the greenhouses, Fang earns around $ 70,000 annually. D.Mr. Fang now owns 120 greenhouses producing organic vegetables. 【4】What can be the best title for the text? A.The Belt and Road Initiative B.A Great Adventurer — Mr. Fang C.The Gobi Farming Program of Gansu D.The Advantages of Farming in the Gobi Desert |

阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。 Devi looked through the observation window at the kids below, all waiting in line to get into the pool. She turned to her mother with a furious frown on her face. “Mom, they’re all little kids! I’m 15 already! This is ridiculous!” “I know, Devi,” replied her mother, “but you’re a beginner, too, and you have to start somewhere!” Devi had never been to a swimming lesson in her life. Between schoolwork and helping on her grandfather’s farm, she hadn’t had time for lessons. The closest swimming pool Devi had been to was the alligator pool her mother bought her when she was five. Now that Devi was older, her mother had found a new jo b in the city, and Devi faced a new challenge—school field trips to the local pool. The first day that Devi went with her class to the pool, she had no idea what she was in for. What could be so difficult about swimming? Devi confidently slipped into the water and held onto the side of the pool, expecting to be able to touch the bottom with her feet. But when Devi let go of the side of the pool, she slipped under the water—the whole pool was one big deep end! Devi threw her arm toward the side of the pool and grabbed the ledge (池壁), out of breath. “I really can’t swim! Everyone’s going to laugh at me!” she thought to herself in a panic. On the next field trip to the pool, Devi sat on the side on a bench, paralyzed with fear. She huddled with a towel over her shoulders, too embarrassed to try again. When she came home, her mother noticed right away that Devi was upset. “Honey, I’ve signed you up for Angela’s swimming lessons at the local pool. Soon you’ll learn how to swim just like everyone else,” she assured Devi, showing photos of Angela with her prize-winning students. 注意： 1. 所续写短文的词数应为 150 左右； 2. 每段的开头语已为你写好； Paragraph 1 Then came the time for Devi to take her first lesson. Paragraph 2 Soon Angela came over to where Devi sat and introduced herself. |
