Three students are talking about the New Year tradition of their own country. Christina from Spain On the last day of the year, the 31st of December, people wait till 12 p.m. Everybody must have 12 grapes to eat at midnight. At each sound of the clock, we must eat a grape. But we can’t ever finish eating the grapes on time! Usually when people still have some grapes in their mouths, they look at each other and start to laugh. This tradition started in Spain long ago. One year, when there were a lot of grapes, the king of Spain decided to give grapes to everybody to eat on New Year’s Eve. Cordon from Britain On New Year’s Day in Britain, people have parties. At 12 o’clock, the music stops, and we listen to the radio. On the radio we hear Big Ben, the famous clock in London. Then everybody sings a song about friendship and kisses their friends. We say “Happy New Year” to each other. It’s lucky if a tall man with dark hair is the first person to come to the house in the New Year. So I go and visit as many friends as I can. They all give me a drink. Angela from Brazil In all cities in Brazil, we have a big party on New Year’s Eve, especially in Rio de Janeiro. People in this city go to the beaches to watch fireworks.

It’s nothing new to learn on the Internet, but since 2012, a new kind of online education has become more and more popular. Do you know what it is? It is called MOOC（大规模在线公开课程）. In 2012, two Stanford professors, Sebastian Thrun and Peter Norvig, decided to offer their lessons for free online. To their surprise, more than 160,000 students in 190 countries took their classes. This led them to build Udacity.com, the first website for MOOC. In less than a year, other MOOC websites, such as Coursera.com and EdX.com, were also set up. MOOC is different from usual online learning. Professors have been trying to keep it similar to a real class. You should sign up（报名）to take the class. You can communicate with other students in many different ways. You have to answer some questions when you watch videos, and you will have some homework to do after class. If you take the class on time, do all the homework, and pass the final test, you can get a certificate in the end. Some people believe MOOC will change the traditional education style.

Many of us love stories of time travel, aliens, and the future. But Chinese sci-fi has not seen much attention until now. One work from a Chinese writer made it a hit around the world. On Aug 23, Liu Cixin, 52, won the world’s top sci-fi prize. He’s the first Asian to ever win the Hugo Award. Liu received the award for Best Novel through his book The Three-body Problem (《三体》). Liu’s winning work takes the reader back to China in the 1970s. In the book, scientists found a planet with three suns. The aliens on the planet created their own civilization (文明) called “three-body”. The aliens planned to invade (入侵) Earth, but humans on Earth started to form camps to protect themselves from danger. Liu uses his professional background in computer engineering to write the book. His work is seen as “hard science fiction”, which aims for scientific accuracy (准确). Some say this is why Liu’s novels stand out among other similar Chinese books. The Chinese culture in Liu’s work also makes his book special. For example, Liu’s work talks about filial piety (孝顺). This is a theme Western sci-fi doesn’t pay much attention to. Most importantly, Liu’s work, like many successful works of science fiction, is popular with people who are unsure of the future. According to Liu, China is growing quickly and is full of temptations (诱惑). This makes it the perfect time for sci-fi. “People nowadays are locked (困住) in this small box of reality, but science fiction is a way to broaden our minds”, said Liu. 【1】According to the article, which of the following is NOT true? A. Liu Cixin is the first Asian to win the world’s top sci-fi prize. B. The Hugo Award is an award for science fiction. C. Liu Cixin wrote The Three-body Problem with his friend. D. The Three-body Problem is a story set in the past. 【2】In The Three-body Problem, _____. A. there was one sun in the system B. humans and the aliens were friends C. the aliens wanted to invade Earth D. humans gave up fighting against enemies 【3】What makes The Three-body Problem different from Western sci-fi? A. It is based on scientific accuracy. B. Readers can find Chinese culture in the book. C. It includes some uncertain parts about the future. D. It can broaden people’s minds. 【4】According to the passage, Liu’s work is popular with people____________. A. who work in computer engineering B. who are interested in aliens C. who love Chinese culture D. who are unsure of the future 【5】Why is The Three-body Problem successful? Reasons are as follows EXCEPT__________. A. he uses his professional background in computer engineering to write the book B. his work aims for scientific accuracy C. it is similar to other Chinese books D. he talks about Chinese culture in the book
