25、   Was it probable that Tang Dynasty poet Li Bai and Western hero King Arthur meet and fight against each other? Yes. In a game called King of Glory(王者荣耀). Created by Chinese company Tencent, King of Glory was one of the most popular MOBA games in China in 2017.

About one in every seven Chinese people plays the game, and 55 million of them play it every day. The game is easy for beginners. Social media like QQ and WeChat have also helped the game’s community grow. New players can be invited to play the game by their WeChat contacts(联系人), with some seeing it as a good way to keep in touch with old friends and make new ones.

The game has more than 60 characters to unlock and play as you progress, each with their own special style and abilities. The characters cover different times and countries. Some are real historical characters, like Li Bai. Some are not. Players use them to fight against each other or team up to fight. The winners can reach higher ranks(排名).

However, some people think King of Glory gives the students incorrect information about events and people in history. For example, the poet Li Bai is described as a killer; Jing Ke, the man who tried to kill the first emperor of China, is a girl in the game. But more people worry about children playing the game too much and spending too much money on it. Most of the players are below the age of 19. It’s reported that a 17-year-old boy had a stroke(中风)after playing the game for 40 hours.

To change the situation, Tencent added a time limit feature to the game to prevent kids from playing too much. From July 4, 2017, children under 12 years old can play the game for only one hour a day, while users between 12 and 18 get two hours. Those who try to play beyond the time limit will be locked out of the game.

【1】Which of the following is TRUE about King of Glory?

A．It is the most popular online game in the world.

B．It offers 60 characters for players to choose from.

C．All of the characters are real historical characters.

D．Players fight against each other or team up to fight.

【2】The best title of the passage is _________.

A．King of Glory-easy for anyone to play

B．King of Glory-popular around the world

C．King of Glory-inviting you to play

D．King of Glory-adding a time limit

27、   Alex Winter is a rock climber. He spoke to Craig Jackson from Out and About magazine.

Imagine hanging on a rock face, with nothing between you and the ground hundreds of metres below. For Alex Winter this is just another normal day. I called him at his home in Fresno, California.
