22、Generally, Chinese scripts(字体)have five categories(种类): The seal character (Zhuang), the official script (Li), the regular script (Kai), the running hand (Xing) and the cursive hand (Cao).
To produce Chinese characters, one will need a brush, a paper, ink and ink stone. They are called the “Four Treasures of the Study”. To learn calligraphy, it is necessary to learn about these tools.
White-goat-hair, black-rabbit-hair and yellow-weasel-hair brushes are the main ones. Brush handles are usually made of bamboo. The ink stick is a special pigment(颜料)used for Chinese traditional painting and calligraphy. The most famous ink stick is Hui Mo, made of pines that grow on Huangshan Mountain in Anhui Province. Xuan paper, produced in Xuanzhou (today’s Anhui Province), is said to be the best for Chinese calligraphy. Ink stones have three categories: Duan, She and Tao. Although the stone is hard and fine, it is not dry or slippery. Using this kind of stone, liquid ink can be produced easily.
By using the four tools well, the artist can produce kinds of calligraphic styles and forms.

24、How would we travel without maps? It would be a bit adventurous (冒险的) to set off from Oxford University to go to London Bridge if there was not a map of the London Underground at each station. In fact, a lot of the early map—makers were explorers (探险家), especially in the 15th and 16th centuries.
So what did people do before there were maps? Well, it was quite easy to use natural signs like mountains and rivers if you were travelling on foot or riding a horse. People took small boats down rivers and followed coastlines (海岸线). And people world use time, not distance (距离), to measure(测量)the way they went; the next village was a three—hour ride, for example.
In fact, in the early maps, people did not draw marks. They drew stars. It was very easy to the night sky and use it for navigation (航行). The sky was a lot clearer before the light pollution from cities appeared. When towns and cities were built, people drew road maps which gave distances and directions.
The London Underground was opened in 1863 and it also used a road map style. But a man called Henry Beck realized that travelling by train was not the same as driving your car across London. Passengers only needed to know which stations to change. His new design for the Underground map was not very popular with the train companies at first. But the passengers loved it and 700,000 copies were printed in 1933.
These days, of course, you can ride a bike, drive a car or go through a forest and know where you are exactly with a GPS. It’s really difficult to get lost!

C. The sky was polluted by light before cities were built.
D. Henry Beck’s map was not popular with passengers.
【3】What is the main idea of the passage?
A. Maps have a long history.
