24、Teenager Jake Deham was skiing with his family in the USA when he fell over and lost one of his skis. His family didn’t know that he had a problem. They kept on skiing. When they got to the foot of the mountain, there was no sign of Jake.

Jake couldn’t find his ski anywhere. In the end, he decided to take off his other ski and walk down the mountain. But he couldn’t work out the right way to go.

It was now getting dark and he was a long way from any place of safety. He knew that he might die that night in the cold temperatures. But Jake kept calm. At home, Jake watched a lot of programmes about living in difficult situations. He remembered the advice from these programmes and knew that he should build a hole in the snow. He made a hole and pointed it up the hill so the wind couldn’t blow into it. Outside his hole, the temperature fell to a dangerous-15℃ that night, but inside it Jake was safe from the cold.

But he had to get down the mountain. The TV programmes always said,“ If you are lost, you should find someone else’ s tracks(足迹) through the snow and follow them.” “I wanted to live my life.” remembers Jake.“So I got up and I found some ski tracks and I followed those.” He walked and walked and finally he saw lights. Nine hours after he lost his ski, he found a team of worker who came to save him. He was safe!

His mum was very happy when she heard the news. Amazingly, Jake didn’t even have to go to hospital. He got through the terrible experience without any injuries.

25、   It is the year 1026, the time of the Song Dynasty. You are trained to become a Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) doctor. You are about to take your final exam. What kind of thing will you face?

During the Song Dynasty, doctors needed to show thy understood meridians (经络) — paths of energy running through the body.

If you were the one to take the exam, you would be asked to show how you would treat symptoms on a life-sized model covered in wax (蜡). Under the wax, the model would be made of bronze (铜), filled with water, and covered in holes running along the meridian paths.

You would need to place an acupuncture needle (针灸用的针) into the correct part of a meridian to pass the exam. If you got it right, the needle would go straight through he hole, and water would pour out of the model. If you picked the wrong spot, the needle would hit the bronze model and you failed.

The exams wanted to make sure all young doctors knew how to treat patients hitting the same correct acupuncture points.

The first “bronze man” acupuncture model was made in 1026 by one of the great doctors named Wang Weiyi. Wang also wrote a book that was used across the country to teach how to use the model. Now you can see a copy of one of these bronze men in China’s National Museum.

【1】Why was there wax on the model?

A.Because the model was totally made of wax.

B.Because wax can protect the model well.

C.Because wax stopped test takers seeing the holes.

D.Because the meridians of the body were covered with wax.

【2】What does the underlined word “spot” mean in the passage?

A.地点 B.斑点 C.职位 D.疤痕

【3】What would happen if a test taker put his needle into a wrong point?

A.The water would pour out of the model.

B.The needle wouldn’t go straight through the hole.

C.There would be one more hole in the bronze model.

D.The hole would be covered with wax.

【4】From the last paragraph, we learn that________ .

A.Wang Weiyi invented the bronze man to test doctors

B.Wang Weiyi was also a teacher in the Song Dynasty

C.doctors now still take the bronze men now

D.we can’t see any of the bronze men now

【5】What does the story mainly talk about?

C.How doctors in the Song Dynasty treated different symptoms.

D.The exam for the TCM doctors in the Song Dynasty.

26、   China is the home of tea, which has more than 4000 years of history. Among the three main drinks—tea, coffee and cocoa, tea is drunk by the largest number of people in the world. Tea from China, along with silk and porcelain, began to be known by the world over a thousand years ago.

Tea leaves are produced mainly in the south of China because of the mild climate and rich soil there. Longiing, Pu’ er, Wulong and Tieguanyin are all famous tea.

Box-office monster “Zootopia” has been called the “most Easter egg-packed(彩蛋) movie ever made by Disney”.

Zootopia went a step further to make the different versions (版本). In the US, Canada, France, the news anchor is moose(麋鹿). In Brazil, it’s a jaguar(美洲虎). Australia and New Zealand get a koala; while Chinese audiences see a giant panda.
