21、   I've handled chopsticks skillfully for decades. While it used to amuse me, it mildly annoys me now that Chinese react with astonishment to see a foreigner handle them—as if someone from a country that put a man on the moon would somehow be incapable of handing two simple sticks. As you can see, China’s influence stretched far and wide long before opening-up in the late 1970s or today’s Belt and Road Initiative. So the idea that most foreigners cannot use chopsticks is, simply put, fiddlesticks.

My first exposure to chopsticks came way back in the 1960s via the elementary piano tune known as Chopsticks, which aroused my curiosity as to what the word meant. Not long afterward, my parents introduced me to Chinese food at King Fong Cafe in Omaha, Nebraska, which, I only learned recently, was among the landmarks of the heartland city’s once-thriving Chinatown in the early 1900s.

In fact, I have undergone special kuaizi training (improving skills, for example, by constantly picking up peanuts when I lived with my Chinese tai chi master) and experimentation (exploring the use of chopsticks to snap up popcorn and donuts; I’m working on ice cream).

But there’s one western food for which chopsticks are truly a godsend: salads. After moving to China in 2014, I bought a salad at a convenience store, and the clerk handed me kuaizi. I refused at first, but then thought, “All right” and gave it a try.

Amazingly useful! I could pick and choose each small piece much more carefully, without having to move awkwardly trying to spear (刺) the crispy carrot or cherry tomato and then move it mouth ward.

Another clear advantage of these simplest of tools is that they regulate the pace and volume of eating. It's much harder to “pig out” by shoveling food with chopsticks than with a fork and spoon.

However, in the spirit of globalization, let’s not overlook the finer points of knife and fork. In fact, a handy thing about the fork is that everyone can basically use it with each hand. I dare to say that, for Chinese and foreigners alike, switching hands while using chopsticks is not so readily done with confidence.

【1】What makes the author feel unhappy about using chopsticks?

A.The comments on chopsticks from foreigners.

B.Incapacity to handle two simple sticks.

C.The idea that foreigners don't like chopsticks.

D.Reaction of Chinese on seeing him using chopsticks.

【2】What does the underlined word “fiddlesticks” in Paragraph 1 mean?

A.nonsense B.reasonable

C.acceptable D.shameful

【3】What is the advantage of chopsticks according to the passage?

A.They can let people wolf down food easily.

B.They can spear the crispy carrot or cherry tomato.

C.They can be amazingly useful to eat western food.

D.They can help users control the pace and volume of eating.

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

A.Me and Chopsticks B.Chinese Kitchen Culture

C.The Globalization of Chopsticks D.Two Sides of Chopsticks

22、   You know how much your telephone has changed over the past 10 years? Your car will change even more than that in the next 10 years.

One of the big changes is that cars will drive themselves. Some day you may not need to drive a car. You will just tell the car where you want to go and it will drive itself.

“We definitely have the technology for it now,” says Andrew Poliak of automotive technology supplier QNX. “We expect self-driving cars to be a mainstream thing between 2020 and 2025. ”

The American company Google has been working on a self-driving automobile for years.These cars are already on the roads in the United States, mainly in California. Google cars are truly self-driving. These cars have no steering wheels (方向盘）or pedals.

Last week, police ordered one of Google’s cars to stop for driving too slowly on a public road. The car was not disobeying any law, so no one was punished. But police did speak with the operators of the vehicle. According to Google, its self-driving cars have been driven nearly 2 million kilometers. That is equal to the distance the average person drives in 90 years. So far, no Google self-driving car has gotten a traffic ticket. Some of them have been in accidents when other cars hit them.

Other companies are working on self-driving cars. Mercedes-Benz, Audi, BMW, Volvo and Toyota all have plans for such vehicles. A company called BestMile plans to operate selfdriving buses in Switzerland next spring. The buses will hold up to nine people and will be tested for two years. Mercedes-Benz is developing large self-driving trucks for long trips. These trucks use drivers to control them.

【1】What Andrew Poliak said suggests that .

A. he takes pride in their technology on self-driving cars

B. he is eager to sell their technology on self-driving cars

C. he is optimistic about the development of self-driving cars

D. he feels sure people will soon have the technology for self-driving cars

【2】Why did the police order one of Google’s cars to stop last week?

A. Because its speed was too low.

B. Because it disobeyed local laws.

C. Because the operators behaved badly.

D. Because there existed technological problems.

【3】What caused some of Google’s self-driving cars to have accidents?

A. Lack of experience. B. High speed.

C. Other cars’ faults. D. Too much traffic.

【4】What can be the best title for the text?

A. Self-driving Cars

B. How to Develop Self-driving Cars

C. The Advantages of Self-driving Cars

D. Owning A Self-driving Car Is Fashionable

23、China Merchants Bank Co Ltd has teamed up with ride-hailing major Didi Kuaidi to provide automobile financing and expand its reach in China's booming mobile payment industry.

The two have inked a comprehensive partnership, which includes a strategic investment by the former in the latter. Under the partnership, CMB will become the first bricks-and-mortar bank that can offer in-app credit card payments to Didi users. At present, users of Didi can only choose third-party payment solutions like WeChat Payment and Alipay to pay cab fares.

Zhao Ju, vice-president of CMB, said the cooperation with Didi was an important step in its mobile Internet finance strategy. “CMB's mobile payment is going to enter a new chapter by leveraging Didi Kuaidi's vast user base," he said.

According to a report by China Internet Network Information Center earlier this month, Didi holds 87.2 percent of China's private car hailing market. The company said it has received 1.43 billion car-hailing requests on its platforms in 2015, which means 1.43 billion payments were made via smartphones.

CMB is expected to use Didi to reach the core users of China's mobile payment market. Jean Liu, president of Didi, said many of the expats prefer payment by credit card rather than Alipay or WeChat. "The new partnership will help improve service quality and customer loyalty," she said. The investment makes CMB part of Didi's existing investors, including Tencent Holdings Ltd, Alibaba Group Holding Ltd and China Investment Corporation. Both of the companies declined to reveal the actual amount of the investment.

Liu, who showed up on Tuesday for the first time in public after her treatment for breast cancer, said the cooperation with CMB is for the long run and "the capital investment is only part of it".

Under the partnership, CMB and Didi will cooperate on a wide range of initiatives on financial services and online-to-offline cooperation. Apart from the in-app credit card payments, the two companies are going to launch joint credit cards in late February and automobile financing services for Didi's car owners. CMB's branches across China are expected to help Didi recruit more drivers.

"There is a lot of room for imagination in our partnership," Li said, adding in future people may use their CMB credit card reward points to pay for the ride on Didi.

Li Chao, an analyst with iResearch Consulting Group, said the partnership may not significantly boost CMB's mobile payment business. "Didi has educated the market for three years and its customers have formed the habit of paying by WeChat or Alipay. So I think CMB can only turn a very smart proportion of Didi users into its payment customer," he said. "But the move shows that China's traditional banking industry is finally thinking out of the box and looking for outside partners in Internet finance competition," he said.

Statistics from Big-Data Research showed that more than 90 percent of China's 9.3 trillion yuan ($1.41 trillion) worth of third party mobile payment market is donated by Alibaba and Tencent.

【1】Which of the following sentences is true about Didi Kuaidi ?

A. The users of Didi can pay cab fare in cash.

B. At present, Didi holds the largest market of China's private car hailing business.

C. With several years of development, the users of Didi have abandoned the third-party payment.

D. CMB will become the most important investor of Didi.

【2】Which of the following is not the purpose of CMB’s cooperation with Didi? .

A. CMB is expected to use Didi to reach the core users of China's mobile payment market.

B. Through the cooperation with Didi, CMB will help improve service quality and customer loyalty.

C. CMB will launch joint credit cards with Didi to expand its service.

D. CMB will turn a very large proportion of Didi users into its payment customer.

【3】What can be inferred from the passage?

A. CMB's mobile payment is going to enter a new chapter.

B. China's traditional banking industry is facing fierce Internet finance competition.

C. CMB and Didi will have a online-to-offline cooperation.

D. Mobile payment market is donated by Alibaba and Tencent.

【4】What’s Li Chao’ attitude towards the partnership between CMB and Didi?

A. cautious   B. positive

C. indifferent D. disapproving

【5】The main idea of this passage is that ___________.?

A. CMB develops partnership with Didi Kuaidi.

B. CMB is looking for outside partners in Internet finance competition.

C. Didi Kuaidi is going to enter a new chapter.

D. Alibaba and Tencent dominate the mobile payment market.

24、Scottish Storytelling Centre, Edinburgh

The Centre’s idea is summed up nicely by the old Scottish proverb, “The story is told eye to eye, mind to mind and heart to heart”. The main draw is its programme of spoken-word performances, most of which take place in its 100-seat basement theatre. The storytelling doesn’t just happen on stage, though. The ground floor has a large, airy room used for exhibitions, workshops as well as a monthly story session for tots (Tiny Tales for one- to three-year-olds).

Exit through the gift shop

No gift shop! Better than that, the centre has an independent bookshop, which specializes in fables, myths and folk stories. Many are classics passed down from generation to generation, although contemporary material also exists in abundance. Kids’ books are plentiful. Contemporary highlights include Lari Don’s Serpents and Werewolves and Janis Mackay’s The Selkie Girl. Also worth a look is Animals, Beasties and Monsters of Scotland by Lea Taylor, which forms part of The History Pres’s superb compilation (编纂) of regional Scottish folk stories. There are also Scots’ versions of Harry Potter, as well as Roald Dahl’s The Twits.

Getting there

The centre is in the middle of Edinburgh’s Old Town, at the eastern end of the Royal Mile. It’s a five-minute walk from Waverley railway station. Driving in the city centre is to be avoided; the nearest bus stops are on the High Street and North Bridge. For more information, visit Lothian Buses.

Value for money

Reasonable. Entry to the ground-floor space is free, although all the theatre performances are ticketed. Prices for shows vary, with the average around £8 for adults and £6 for children. Café Voices, the centre's monthly storytelling night, is £5.

Opening hours

10 a.m. -6 p.m. from Mondays to Saturdays; Sunday (July and August only). Last entry: 5:30 pm.

【1】What can visitors do in the shop at the exit?

A.Enjoy classics. B.Exchange folk stories.

C.Meet contemporary writers. D.Talk about Harry Potter in Scots.

【2】What can be learned about transportation to the centre?

A.Self-driving is encouraged in the city centre.

B.Public transportation is recommended.

C.Round-trip transportation is provided by the centre

D.The nearest bus stop is next to Waverley railway station.

【3】When can you visit the storytelling center?

26、阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一算完整的短文。

“I’m sorry, sir. There’s no cash assistance left for you. Maybe you can come back tomorrow”, the staff said. The poor father, wearing a torn face mask, had to leave. A tear drop stained (留下污迹) his cheek, realizing that he wasn’t able to buy food for his family again. In the past week he had been waiting early just for the help from the local government.

He was starting to leave when the staff suddenly called him. “Wait, sir! I have something for you”, said the staff, handing him a kilo of rice. “That’s for you, sir. That’s all I can give you”, the staff said shyly.

The father was quite happy with the rice. “What’s your work, sir?” the staff asked. The father sighed deeply as he began to speak. “I am just a plumber (水管工), sir. I can’t do my job now because of this pandemic (流行病). I felt helpless, so I tried to get a little help here for my wife and three daughters,” he said sadly.

“Wow. Your family is very lucky to have you, a devoted and loving father. I hope I will be like you one day. And you deserve more help and kindness from others”, the staff said. The father smiled widely. “Thank you, sir. You will be a good family man. Bye.”

On his way home, however, his joy gradually disappeared. It was afternoon when he arrived home. He handed his wife the rice, who happily went to the kitchen with it. Later on, the whole family sat in front of the table except the father.

The youngest daughter noticed it and said, “Father, the porridge is delicious. Why don't you want this?” Hearing those words, the father started to drop tears. “I’m sorry if I'm only feeding you the porridge right now. Nothing better. Sorry.” he cried.

注意：

1.续写词数应为150左右；

2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
