1、阅读下面的短文，将划线部分译成英文或中文。

The giant panda is the national treasure of China. 1.People around the world love pandas.

The black and white animals have also played an important role in China’s diplomacy(外交). It is known as “panda diplomacy”.

In the 1950s, China sent two pandas to the Moscow Zoo. By 1982, China had already given 23 pandas to nine different countries. 2.然而，这些大熊猫中大多数均已经死亡。China stopped giving away pandas in the early 1980s. Instead, the animals are lent to other countries. In general, they are to be returned to China after 10 years.

But why is it hard for these cute “diplomats(外交官)” to live in other countries? 3.最重要的原因之一是他们的饮食习惯。 They feed on bamboo. Adult pandas need about 40 kilos of bamboo a day.

It takes 10 years for bamboo to grow, and 4.many countries do not have a good environment for bamboo growth. This means that food has to be imported (进口).

But other countries are still trying their best to keep this special kind of diplomacy. “We don’t own the pandas. 5.但全世界都想拯救大熊猫。 And we do that by sharing knowledge.” said Steven Montfort, director of the Smithsonian’s National Zoo.

21、   Many daily American expressions are based(以……为基础) on colours.

Red is a hot colour. Americans often use it to represent heat. When they say “red-hot”, that means they are very angry about something. Loud music is popular with many people. Some may say that such music is red-hot.

Pink is a lighter kind of red. People sometimes say “I’m in the pink” when they are in good health. The expression was first used in America at the beginning of the 20th century. It probably comes from the fact that many babies are born with a nice pink colour that shows that they are in good health. Blue is a cool colour. The old Blues music in the United States is the opposite of red-hot music. Blues is slow and sad. Someone who is “blue” is very sad.

The colour green is natural for trees and grass. But it is an unnatural colour for humans. A person who has an upset stomach may say “I’m feeling a bit green”. A person on a boat who is feeling very sick from high waves can be said “look very green”. Sometimes a person may be very jealous because he does not have anything as nice as someone has, like a fast new car. That person may say “I’m green with envy”. Some people are green with envy because someone has more dollars or “greenbacks’’. Dollars are called greenbacks in American slangs because that is the colour of the bottom of their bank notes.

The colour black is used often in expressions. People may say “it’s a black day’’ when everything goes wrong on that day.

In some cases, colours describe a situation. Blackouts were common during the World War II. All the lights in a city were turned off at night to make it difficult for enemy planes to find their aims in the dark.

【1】What does “I’m in the pink” mean?

23、Searching for parking spaces has long been a headache for many office workers in many big cities of China, especially for those working in central business districts. Parking near their companies for five days a week could cost them a lot of money. At the same time, even with prices for parking lots in residential areas（居民区） rising, most of their spaces remain idle during workdays.

Now a new form of sharing economy has appeared in China—the shared parking space. It has become a huge market in some big cities. In Qingdao, a coastal city in Shandong, up to 10,000 personal parking spaces have been turned into shared ones with the help of “Airparking”, an online shared parking platform developed by a network company from Guangzhou.

Users can share and order a parking place by downloading and using a special app. Owners who have idle parking spaces can share some information, including the parking position, license number and time limit on the platform. With the information, users can easily find the nearest place to park. The average parking cost for shared parking is 4 yuan each hour, almost the same as the service cost in traditional parking spaces.

Qingdao is one of the Chinese cities that encourage shared parking. Some other big cites, including Beijing, Shanghai and Hefei, have also begun to try this idea. The Shanghai government, for example, has set up more than 6,500 shared parking spaces to encourage the public to use. Shared parking will be more and more helpful to the drivers.

【1】The underlined word “idle” probably means ________ in Chinese in Paragraph 1.

A．懒散的

B．降价的

C．闲置的

D．废弃的

【2】If you want to use shared parking in Qingdao, you should ________.

A．download and use a special app

B．share your personal information

C．have a parking space of your own

D．work in central business districts

【3】The structure（结构） of the passage is ________.

A．

B．

C．

D．

【4】What can we infer from the passage？

A．Qingdao has fewer shared parking spaces than Shanghai.

B．Shared parking will probably become more and more popular.

C．Shared parking is less expensive than traditional parking service.

D．It’s hard to find parking spaces in residential areas during workdays.
