24、Hello, Mr. Smith, Mrs. Smith and little Tom! I’m Lee Ling. It’s my honor to show you around our beautiful Suzhou. Suzhou, which lies in the east of China’s Jiangsu Province, is a well-known city with rich history and culture. Its beautiful scenery and classical gardens attract millions of tourists every year. There is a popular saying that “gardens in the south of the Yangtze River are the best in China, yet gardens in Suzhou are the best among the best”. So Suzhou is known as the Garden City. Records show that there are almost 200 gardens of different sizes in Suzhou. Among them, Lingering Garden (留园) is the most famous and best preserved. In 1997, the Lingering Garden has been added to the World Cultural Heritage List by the UNESCO.

Lingering Garden has a history of over 400 years. The garden was first built as a private (私人的) living place in 1583 by Xu Taishi, an official in Ming Dynasty. Covering an area of 33,000 square meters, Lingering Garden was divided into four parts: eastern, central, northern and western parts. The architectural structures mainly gather in the eastern part. Entering this area, you will see that doors are open upon doors and courtyards are linked with gateways and covered with corridors (廊道). You will lose yourselves in the unique buildings.

25、①Confucius, who was born more than two thousand years ago, is one of the most important Chinese philosophers (哲学家). After all these years, his influence is still strong in modern times.

②Unlike the abstract (抽象的) philosophy of Laozi, Confucian ideas about right and wrong are easy to understand and connected to daily life. “It’s all about the everyday. It’s all about family,” Roger Ames, a Confucius expert at Peking University, told China Daily.

③For example, many Chinese learn at an early age to “be filial (孝顺的) to parents and respectful to brothers”. Confucius believed that if everyone knows how to love their families, they will know how to love others, love their country and love the world.

④“Don’t do to others what you don’t want others to do to you” is the favorite Confucius idea of Guo Jiulin, a professor at Dalian Minzu University. “It reminds me that if a person wants to achieve his social dreams, he must first be strict with himself in words and behaviors,” he told China Daily.

⑤Another important Confucian idea is he, or harmony (和谐). Sun Yiting, a student from Zhejiang University, values it. “It reminds me to calm down when I get angry,” she told TEENS. “It reminds me to put oneself in others’ shoes. This way of thinking makes my life much happier.”

⑥Confucian ideas can even be connected to today’s global problems, according to Ames.

⑦“Confucius believed that the only way I can take my stand is by helping other people take theirs. If my neighbor does better, I do better. That’s the Confucian wisdom (智慧). This is really needed in the world today,” said Ames.

⑧“Global warming, food and water shortages, environmental problems, international terrorism (恐怖主义). We can solve these problems only if we work together.”

26、

Everyone knows by now that plastic pollution is a big problem for the environment. Beijing, for example, has dealt with this by stopping using thin plastic bags, plastic tableware (餐具) and other plastic products in supermarkets, restaurants and hotels  since May 1, 2020.

But an even better solution might be on the way. Researchers at a French company called Carbios have discovered a bacterial enzyme (细菌酶) that can break down plastic. The enzyme, which was first found in compost (堆肥) leaves, can not only break down  plastic in hours, but also use the things left to create new products.

In fact, the first compost enzyme was found in 2012. Scientists changed its genes (基因), allowing it to break down 90 percent of one ton of waste plastic in less than 10 hours. “It had been completely forgotten, but it turned out to be the best,” said  Professor Alain Marty, chief science officer at Carbios.

The new enzyme was discovered in research published in April, 2020. Before that, the team, led by Professor Alain Marty, studied over 100,000 micro-organisms (微生物) to find one that could break down plastic quickly.

The enzyme especially breaks down PET, a kind of plastic that is most commonly used for plastic bottles and food packaging. It is also the fifth most common kind of plastic that we use.

However, waste bottles must be ground up (磨碎) and heated before the new enzyme is mixed in. These will make the recycled PET more expensive. But because of a shortage of this recycled plastic, people still like paying more money for it.

Carbios said it is working together with companies like Pepsi and Nestle — main users of plastic themselves — to develop their research and start using the enzyme in the factories. “There is still a lot of work to do to use it in the factories, but this opens the door.” said a research scientist.

【1】What is regarded as a big problem for the environment?

A．Air pollution.

B．Plastic pollution.

C．A bacterial enzyme.

D．Emissions from cars.

【2】What do you know about the enzyme?

A．It’s a type of plastic.

B．It can break down plastic quickly.

C．It can break down PVC.

D．It’s the fifth most common type of bacterial.

【3】How did scientists find the new way to deal with plastic?

① studied lots of micro-organisms

② discovered the new enzyme

③ found the first compost enzyme     

④ changed genes of the enzyme

A．①-②-③-④

B．②-①-④-③

C．③-④-①-②

D．④-③-②-①

【4】What is the best title of this passage?

A．Natural Way to Recycle Plastic

B．The Most Common Way to Stop Plastic

C．The Bright Future of Using Plastic

D．A New Way to Create the New Enzyme

27、It is human nature to love celebrations. Some festivals have been celebrated tor centuries or thousands of years. So, what are the reasons behind all these celebrations?

Some festivals are celebrated in memory of (纪念) an important person or an important event, such as the Dragon Boat Festival in China and the Independence Day in the U.S. Some festivals are celebrated to welcome new life, such as the Spring Festival in China and Easter in Western countries. All these festivals are of great importance and have become necessary parts of the country’s culture.

People also celebrate festivals for social and economic (经济) reasons. Festivals can bring freshness to life and make it more colorful.

And these feelings can work as medicine and the patient may get well without any treatment. Sometimes a person gets well from a serious illness just by thinking he should remain alive so that be could celebrate festivals with his family members. So festivals can sometimes work as a reason for living.

When we celebrate festivals, we also remember the historical events related to them.
