25、Who is Li Ziqi? For 7 million YouTube viewers and 20 million Weibo users, it’s an easy question to answer. The 29-year-old girl’s videos about her country’s rural life have become very popular around the world. From making bamboo furniture to raising baby ducklings in order to make a sauce from salted duck eggs, Li Ziqi is known for her videos, shot in an idyllic （田园的） rural setting. Her fans call her “the goddess of nature”.

Li was raised by her grandparents in a small village in Sichuan province. When she was 14, she went to the city to work, but returned to the countryside in 2012 to take care of her sick grandmother. To make a living, Li ran an online store, selling fresh farm products and some local items. The store was doing well, but among thousands of similar sellers, it didn’t stand out in any way. In 2016, Li started to make videos, originally as a way to promote her store. Her videos were of high quality and the rural life she recorded was so fantastic that they soon caught the attention of many people.

In her videos, Li always wears homemade hanfu, the traditional clothing of the Han ethnic group. She also rears silkworms in order to sew a quilt for her grandmother and grows plants. Many videos show her picking seasonal vegetables and fruit from her own garden and cooking them up with her wood-fired wok. A warm bowl of soup for the winter, a lighter plate of noodles for the summer, Li follows the seasons in her cooking, as China's traditional 24 solar terms also do, and makes food suitable for the particular climate. Li seems to be a master of all kinds of skills — cooking, painting, designing and farming. The most fascinating thing about her ingenuity（心灵手巧） is that she does almost every thing in a traditional Chinese way cooking.

“I want to do my part to let more people know about Chinese culture,” she said. “Much of the popularity of my videos can be attributed to the attraction of Chinese culture.” On the 14th 2019 she won Person of the Year in the category of cultural influence awarded by China Newsweek. On the early 2020, China Women’s News rewarded her Top 10 women for her effort and hard work.

Li’s success also comes from her “passion for life, for her home and for her culture”. Li’s simple pleasures and positive attitude toward life strike a chord（引起共鸣） with people living in the busy and noisy cities. She leads a life that many dream of, but don’t dare to give up their current life in exchange for. One of her fans wrote.

Li’s idyllic lifestyle somehow has become a fantasyland. “In today’s society, many people feel stressed.” she told the South China Morning Post. “When they watch my videos at the end of a busy day, I want them to relax and experience something nice, to take away some of their anxiety and stress.”

【1】What is NOT the purpose for Li to make the videos?

A．To spread Chinese traditional culture.

B．To promote her online store.

C．To release People from their stressful life.

D．To make people return to an idyllic lifestyle.

【2】What is the correct order for the following events?

a.Li ran an online store.

b.Li won Person of the Year.

c.Li made videos to promote the products.

d.Li went to the city to work.

e.Li became one of the Top 10 women.

A．dacbe

B．adceb

C．daceb

D．acdbe

【3】Which of the following best describes Li Ziqi?

A．Polite and easy-going.

C．Humorous and hard-working.

D．Strict and strong-minded.

【4】What is the best title for the passage?

27、 It was a cold winter afternoon before Christmas. My parents and I sat on the beach in Washington, D.C’s Union Station, waiting for the train. Inside the waiting hall were many people.

A boy sat nearly. His worn jacket, pale face, dirty hands all seemed to tell me that he was homeless.

“He must be cold and hungry. Maybe I should help him,” I said to myself.

Just at that moment, a well- dressed young couple walked towards him.

“Excuse me,” the man bent down. “My wife and I thought two meal boxes but one was enough for us. We hate to waste good food. Can you help us out and put this to use?” He handed the boy a meal box.

The boy thanked them and opened the box with joy and care. Suddenly he stopped. In the direction to which he looked, I saw an old man in rags(衣衫褴褛) – in a worn sweater, worn trousers and open shoes, entering the hall.

Putting the meal box aside, the boy stood up and helped the old man to his seat. He took off his jacket and covered the old man’s shoulders, saying, “A gentleman brought me this warm meal but I just finished eating. I hate to waste good food. Can you help me out?” He placed the still—warm meal box in the old man’s hands without waiting for an answer.

“Sure, son, but if only you share that sandwich with me. It’s too much for a man at my age.”

We were all touched. Dad went away and soon returned with cups of hot chocolate and a big pizza. Mum and Dad went up to those in rags, “Excuse me…”

I rushed into a KFC and took out my pocket money.

It was so cold that afternoon but I felt much warmer than I had ever though possible.
