A Juicier and Sweeter Apple

A father and his daughter were flying a kite in the park. The young daughter was a little bit tired, so they took a break on the bench（长凳）. When the daughter saw an old man selling apples, she asked her father to buy her some apples. Her father didn’t bring much money with him, but it was enough to buy two apples. So he did, and gave both of them to his daughter, smiling.

His daughter held one apple in her right hand. Then the father asked her if she could share one of the apples with him. When the girl heard this, she quickly took a bite from one apple. And before her father could speak, she also took a bite from the second apple. The father was surprised. He wanted to know why his daughter acted in such a greedy(贪婪的) way. He was lost in thought. Perhaps he was just thinking too much. His daughter was too young to understand sharing and giving. A smile disappeared from his face.

Suddenly, his daughter held up the apple in her left hand and said, "Daddy, take this one! It is much juicier and sweeter. Her father didn’t know what to say. He felt bad about making the judgment(判断) so fast about a small child. So he smiled again, knowing why his daughter quickly took a bite from each apple.

Don’t judge anything or draw a conclusion(结论) too quickly. Always spend some more time in understanding things better.

Focus on mental health

At some point in life, many people suffer a mental disturbance. While most people get over it, for others it doesn’t go away easily.

Oct 10 was World Mental Health Day. This year, the theme was “Young People and Mental Health in a Changing World”.

The World Health Organization says that about 20 percent of children and teenagers worldwide suffer from mental illness. It’s thought that the number of children and teenagers with mental illness around the world will increase by half by 2020. It will become one of the main causes of diseases, disabilities and even death.

In China, the picture isn’t bright, either. About 30 million Chinese children and teenagers under the age of 17, or 10 percent of children and teenagers in China, have a mental health challenge, reported China Daily.

The reason for mental problems among young people may be the increasing pressure in life.

The world is changing fast. Study and relationships have always caused stress, but today the stress is much higher than before, the WHO said.

The Young Foundation, a UK-based non-profit think tank, says that young people today have huge stresses at school. For instance, they experience bullying and body image issues. In a 2017 report, the foundation noted that the internet was a special source of stress. Online, young people often see “messages about perfection” and this causes the young “great uncertainty about their adult futures”, says the foundation.

Also, according to China Daily, Chinese people don’t seek help with their mental problems. They fear that others will think less of them if they admit that they are in trouble. Elaine Peng, a US mental health educator, makes a similar point. She thinks that many Chinese people are ashamed of their mental problems. Peng told Xinhua that mental illness “is taboo in many Chinese families”.

In the UK, over three-quarters of young people believe their mental health problems have a social stigma. YouGov, a UK-based data company, reported in 2017 that a quarter of young UK people wouldn’t ask for help if they developed a mental problem.

Young people who don’t seek help for their condition may be creating problems for themselves in the future. Jagannath Lamichhane, a mental health expert in Nepal, warned that, “If we hide our mental health, it may remain a problem forever.”

“My message for young people is, if you feel something is wrong within you—seek help,” he told NPR.

【4】According to Jagannath Lamichhane, ________.

A．people shouldn’t pay attention to mental illness

B．people shouldn’t hide mental illness

23、Zhao Yishen, the 33-year-old artist, is carving a woodblock (雕刻木板) carefully, with a chisel in his right hand. To carve the woodblocks, he has to hold this position for six hours. He has been carving woodblocks since 2012. “It feels good and looks beautiful when a Chinese character slowly appears on the woodblock under your chisel," says Zhao.

Zhao is now the only full-time carver working at a workshop that creates woodblock-printed books in Beijing. As a teenager he loved to read ancient Chinese books in the library, and the curiosity of how the books were made led him to get a job at an ancient books woodblock printing studio in Yangzhou in 2011 after graduating as a law major from university.

Block printing was listed as a UNESCO World Intangible Cultural Heritage in 2009. Zhao started to learn the skill from Chen Yishi, one of the skill's masters, in 2012.

“The first step is to learn how to sharpen your chisel, "says Zhao. “After using it for a while, you need to sharpen it again.” After that, the woodblock must be put at a certain angle that is deep enough to show up the characters and also to make sure the cuts are deep enough-but not too deep. Then Zhao puts the paper, face down, onto the wood after brushing oil on the paper. This helps to transfer the characters onto the block. Once the carving is finished, the woodblock is brushed with ink and paper pressed onto it. It is ready to print.

In Zhao's mind, the inked woodblock is a work of art. After a year of learning from Chen, Zhao found a job at Zhuyu Shanfang in 2013. His carved woodblocks have been used for several books over the past six years. “I just learned the basic skills, but to master it, I still need years of practice,” says Zhao. “A good craftsman can carve an entire book with every single character aligned in order.”

【1】Hong long has Zhao Yishen carved woodblocks?

A．For 5 years.

B．For 6 years.

C．For 7 years.

D．For 10 years.

【2】The underlined word "it" in Paragraph 4 refers to _______.

A．woodblock

B．character

C．chisel

D．ink

【3】Which is NOT the key to his success?

A．Patience.

B．The knowledge of law.

C．Hard work.

D．Years of practice.

【4】In what order did the following events take place?

a. Zhao found a job at Zhuyu Shanfang.

b. Zhao graduated as a law major from university.

c. Zhao's carved woodblocks have been used for several books.

d. Zhao began to love reading ancient Chinese books in the library.

e. Zhao learned block printing from Chen Yishi,one of the technique's masters.

A．b-e-a-d-c

B．b-e-d-a-c

C．d-b-e-a-c

D．d-b-a-e-c

【5】What is the passage mainly about?

24、   The Flame Mountain（火焰山）is about 200 km away from Urumqi in Xinjiang. It is in a place with many high mountains around it. It is much hotter than nearby places. If you want to enjoy the feeling of a hot shower in summer, it's the right place to go!

On hot summer days, it can get hotter than 80℃. Try to cook eggs or cakes in the sand and they will be ready in a few minutes!

The mountain came into being millions of years ago when the earth was changing a lot. We can't see any plants on the top of the mountain, only red rocks. They make the whole mountain look red. In hot air and strong sunshine, the mountain looks like a burning flame. That's where its name comes from.
