The brush had magical power—if he drew something with it, the picture would become a real one. This information reached a local office (官员). He put Ma Liang into prison (监狱) and confiscated his brush. The officer asked Ma Liang to draw a golden mountain. Ma Liang agreed, but he also drew a big sea around the golden mountain.

23、       The Chinese tradition of giving gifts of money in red envelopes at Lunar New Year has turned into big business for Web giants Alibaba and Tencent, which now both offer electronic “hong bao”.

       At the end of each lunar year, it is common in China to give children hong bao—some money in envelopes that are red, the colour of success. But now the old also take part in this activity.

       It is now possible to exchange “red envelopes” with smartphone, which is popular in China and has caused a battle(战争) for the lucrative market between the two companies providing the service, Tencent and Alibaba.

       “You don’t have to pay the same cost or wait as long as you would for a traditional bank transfer(转账). It’s more convenient, simple and fun,” Wang Le, a 28-year-old Beijinger, told AFP. “With electronic red envelopes, you’re not limited by your identity(身份) or the time of year. It’s a new, fresh way of playing the game.”

       The idea was introduced in 2014 by WeChat, a mobile messaging system with over 400 million users and run by Tencent, China’s largest Internet service system. It was successful at once.

       This year, Alipay Wallet(阿里支付宝), the payment system run by Alibaba, is ready to take on the competition. It is allowing its 190 million users to send digital gifts, especially on the Twitter-like Sina Weibo.

       For the past few weeks, a digital battle has been terrible, with Tencent banning(禁止) Alipay from sending red envelopes on WeChat, saying they were at a risk. Recently, WeChat also blocked(封锁) Alibaba’s music app Xiami.

       To attract the public’s attention, the two companies have launched lotteries through which they award red envelopes to users in an online game.

       It’s easy to send and receive hong bao or take part in the lotteries: you simply need to register(登记) your bank details.

       According to market research group iResearch, Alipay controls 82.6 percent of the Chinese mobile phone payment market, compared to 10 percent for Tencent’s Tenpay.

【2】According to the passage, what’s the popular trend for people to send “red envelopes” ?

24、When I was a boy my mum used to say I would read the back of a medicine bottle if I didn’t have a book in my hand. It was true, and even now that reading habit has been with me, I always have at least one book being read, sometimes I might have two or three. And I’m talking about real books, books made out of paper, books that you can hold in your hand, to read, at the table, on the subway or my favorite place to read-in the bath.

But the number of people reading books is dropping. A recent survey tells us that Chinese people only read 4.77 printed books a year on average and in the US, 25 percent of the population say they didn’t read a book last year! So what’s stopping people from reading?

The answer of course is the huge influence that technology has had on our life. Why read a book when you can watch a movie or TV play on your smart phones or iPads? For younger people, books may not be as exciting as online games. With stories you have to work at it, closely follow the turns of the plot (情节). There are no shortcuts with a book. You have to turn page after page.

But you can still get lost in a book. We all have this thing called imagination. It’s much more powerful than any computer; in fact, it’s worth remembering that any online game was first written in words as a story by its writer. It’s all about his or her or their imagination.

So we need to read-if we do not read, it will be hard for us to improve our ability to think widely, to have an imagination. Reading is a process in which we need to compare and connect other things we have read and seen in the past. If you do not read, this will not only influence your study, but also your social life in the future.

So why not follow me from now on? Run a hot bath, or find a comfortable chair and read a good book for a few hours-there are quite many, for free, in your local library.

【1】What’s the main idea of Paragraph 1?

A．The writer used to enjoy playing with a medicine bottle.

B．The writer has had the reading habit since his childhood.

C．The writer always has two or three books in his hand.

D．The writer often reads books at a table on the subway.

【2】The number of people reading books is dropping because ______.

A．books are becoming less interesting

B．technology has greatly influenced our life

C．25% of Americans don’t read books

D．there aren’t enough printed books to read

【3】What does the word “shortcuts” in Paragraph 3 most probably mean in Chinese?

A．捷径

B．理念

C．缺点

D．短文

【4】According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true?

A．Reading can help to develop our imagination.

B．All online games were first written in words.

C．We need to think a lot while reading a book.

D．Younger people prefer books to online games.

【5】In the last paragraph, the writer mainly suggests that we should ______.

A．run a hot bath to read books

B．borrow books from the library

C．read more books in our life

D．read books in a comfortable chair

25、Happiness is for everyone. In fact, happiness is always around you if you care about it. When you are in t【1】 at school, your classmates will help you; when you study hard at your l【2】, your parents are always taking good c【3】 of you; when you get success, your friends will say “Congratulations” t【4】 you, when you do something w【5】, people around you will help you correct it, and when you do something good to o【6】, you will feel happy too. All these things are your h【7】. If you pay attention to t【8】, you can see happiness is always around you.

Happiness is not the same as money. When you are poor, you can say you are very happy, because people can’t buy happiness w【9】 money. When you meet problems, you can also say loudly you are very happy, because you have many friends to help you. So you can’t always say you are poor or you have bad luck. If you agree with me, you can be a happy and lovely p【10】.
