 Some people live to climb the highest mountains. Some people only think about it while others avoid ever climbing at all. But one thing is certain that all people come across mountains in their life. When I was a little girl, my parents moved us to the tiny village of Otongo, Hidalgo, Mexico. This town was built at the bottom of a big mountain. One day after school, while exploring(探索) the green woods of this mountain, I came upon a lot of stairs. What could these steps lead to? Could this be the way to the top? I was so curious that I started climbing up those mysterious(神秘的) steps. I climbed and climbed, but still there was nothing in sight. It was getting really dark, and I wasn’t even close to the top. The voice of reason told me to hurry back home and try again the next day. I ran back home in the dark while trying not to get too afraid. I didn’t tell anyone about what I found that night. I went to bed dreaming about what I would find at the top of this magical mountain we lived on. Could there be a handsome prince, treasure or ghosts up there? Ah...such childhood fantasies(想象)! Those were the days when we could dream. We could do crazy things. We believed! I'm all grown up now, and life has shown me a beating at times. I did live on a mountain in a town as described, but I created this childhood fantasy to make my days so much more fun as a kid. This story is a good metaphor(比喻) for life today. You might ask, "What was at the top of that mountain?" I ask you, "What would you have wanted to find?" Dream about what's at the top of your mountain. What do you want out of life? Tomorrow is another day, and still, you must climb. Whatever you do, never ever give up on your dream! Never let anyone tell you, "You can't." 【1】Which word is the best to describe the writer as a child according to the article? A.Honest. B.Friendly. C.Humorous. D.Imaginative. 【2】What do paragraphs 2-7 mainly talk about? A.How the writer reached the top of a mountain. B.A childhood story told by the writer. C.Advice the writer gave on climbing a mountain. D.What the writer's favorite mountain was like. 【3】What does the word “mountains” stand for in real life? A.Dreams. B.Treasures. C.Difficulties. D.Fantasies. 【4】What does the underline word “reason” in Chinese? A.理由 B.理智 C.理解 D.理论 【5】What is the writer 's purpose in writing this article? A.To encourage people to follow their dreams. B.To share her childhood memories with readers. C.To explain the advantages of climbing mountains. D.To show how adults think differently from children. |

Chinese animal symbols hold amazing power in all cultures. As with all symbols, these can bring about great positive(积极的) parts into our lives. By understanding their meanings, we think about the desired(渴望的) part each symbol represents. Crane: The crane is a legend(传说) in China for being the prince with feathers on earth. Next to(仅次于) the phoenix(凤凰), the crane is Chinese favourite bird symbol. The crane is the ancient symbol for long life because it can live for a long time. In many legends, the spirits ride on cranes, which are also said to take the souls(灵魂) of the dead people to heaven.  Goldfish: This symbol means a lot of gold, making the goldfish a popular symbol in the Chinese culture. One of the most popular New Year's pictures is a child holding a large goldfish and a flower which brings both wealth and harmony. A goldfish embroidered(刺绣) on a bag or a shirt is a sure way to bring enough energy into your life.  Magpie(喜鹊): This Chinese animal symbol translates into the bird of joy. It is believed that when the magpie nests in your house, it brings much cause for celebration and many happy occasions(场合). Those people who wish to live a happy life in a new place will do well to have this symbol in their lives, as it attracts the settling(安居) energies into our lives. What’s more, the magpie is a powerful symbol to attract the happiness with marriage and children.  Rooster: A picture of a rooster stands for a wish for advancement because the rooster's crest(冠) sounds similar to the word “官” in Chinese. More importantly, legend has it that the Heavenly Rooster of Dusu Mountain was crowing(啼叫) loudly and making all the roosters on earth crow along with it. This crowing would drive away all evil spirits away. 【1】What is a fact about the crane? A.It’s the princess of all animals on earth. B.The Chinese favourite bird symbol. C.It will live for quite a long time. D.It can take people to heaven. 【2】Which brings a lot of wealth(财富) and energy? A.The crane. B.The rooster. C.The goldfish.

 Why did Song Dynasty (960-1279) officials(官员) wear hats that had two “wings”? Several months ago, many pictures of Chinese students wearing winged-hats have been posted online. They use the hats to practice social distancing when they return to school. Many people say the hats look like those worn during the Song Dynasty. It's true that in the Song Dynasty, officials wore hats that had two long wing-like flaps(长翅). According to one legend(传说），the hats were designed by Zhao Kuangyin, the first emperor(皇帝) of the dynasty. One day, when listening to a minister's report, Zhao noticed that many ministers were whispering to each other and not respecting court rules. Zhao came up with a practical solution. He required that wings should be added to the ministers' hats. Using a metal plate and bamboo strips as the wings, the "wings" prevented the ministers from talking to others sitting beside them. Since then, the court order had been kept. Although the story is recorded in a book from the Yuan Dynasty (1271-1368), some historians(史学家) think the story may not be true. The wings of the hats might just be a decoration that could make people look dignified(庄严的). They were not convenient(方便) to wear, so the hats disappeared in later dynasties at last. 【1】When did the Chinese students began to wear winged-hats? __________________________________ 【2】Why did the Chinese students wear winged hats? __________________________________ 【3】What materials were the ancient hats' wings made of? ___________________________________ 【4】Where is the story recorded? ___________________________________ 【5】Why did the hats disappear at last? __________________________________ |

After a busy morning at work, lunchtime gives me a chance to do many things, such as exercise, read or watch TV. One cultural difference I've noticed between Britain and China is what we do during lunchtime. Here in China, workers have longer lunch breaks, which gives them enough time to take a short nap(午睡). Therefore, Chinese people usually use lunchtime to rest. I often see office workers rest their heads on their desks. The room turns into a quiet "bedroom". Once, I even saw workers in a restaurant taking short naps as well. This is also very common for students in China. After lunch, they will go back to their dormitories(宿舍）or classrooms to take a nap. Chinese people believe a short nap at noon can help them feel more energetic(精力充沛的) in the afternoon. In the UK, this activity is quite uncommon. British students usually have one hour for a lunch break. They don’t nap. Instead, they fill that time by playing sports or talking with friends. Most workers in the UK don't get the chance to nap. They generally have short lunch breaks-between 30 minutes to an hour. There is not enough time to have a nap. Because of the shortness of their lunch breaks, it is common for people to work through lunch or just finish their lunch at their desk.
