the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.
Task 1
In October, 2021, a week-long exhibition at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Center exhibited Chinese architecture. China has long been known for its pagodas （宝塔）and palaces. The event happened to fall on the 24th anniversary of Hong Kong’s return to the motherland.
“The exhibition aims to promote national pride,” said Carrie Lam, the then
Chief Executive of Hong Kong, China.
China has a history of thousands of years. Many ancient dynasties came and went, with each era reflecting new architectural feats. One of the models on show describes the Summer Palace, which was built in 1709, during the rule of Emperor Kangxi of the Qing Dynasty. Situated on over 864 acres in Beijing, its palaces and gardens were once meant to serve Chinese emperors.
China is now home to several modern architectural treasures. These include a hospital in Hong Kong that was completed in just four months to treat patients with COVID-19, the disease caused by the coronavirus. Other famous structures include the Shanghai Tower, the third-tallest building in the world, and the Qinghai-Tibet Railway. The high-speed railway was completed in 1984. Its route includes a station in the Tanggula Mountains that is the highest railway station in the world.
Another celebrated structure, the Bank of China Tower in Hong Kong, wasdesigned by famous architect I. M. Pei. Its triangular shape was inspired by bamboo shoots, standing for growth and hope.
Looking to the future, Chinese architects are exploring several possibilities, including the idea of “sponge cities”. This idea could help with the country’s water shortage by taking in rainwater and turning it into drinking water.
“The purpose of this exhibition,” said Fionz Chan, one of the organizers, “is to show that China is not just thinking about the past, but also the future.”
31. How long did the exhibition of Chinese architecture last?
A. 7 days.
B. 10 days
C. 15 days
D. 30 days
32. According to Carrie Lam, what is the goal of the exhibition ?
A. To celebrate the 24th anniversary of Hong Kong’s return.
B. To review the history of Chinese architecture.
C. To show great achievements of Chinese architecture.
D. To promote national pride.
33. Which modern architecture below is NOT mentioned in the passage?
A. The Shanghai Tower.
B. The Bank of China Tower in Hong Kong.
C. The Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge.
D. The Qinghai-Tibet Railway.
34. What problem can “sponge cities” help to solve?
A. Water pollution.
B. Little rainfall.
C. Housing shortage.
D. Water shortage.
35. The best title for this passage could be ________.
A. Chinese Architecture Has Been Improved Greatly
B. Chinese Architecture Is Celebrated in Hong Kong
C. Chinese Architecture Is Famous around the World
D. Chinese Architecture Has a Bright Future
Task 2
Have you ever run into a careless cell phone user on the street? Perhaps they were busy talking, texting or checking updates on WeChat without looking at whatwas going on around them. As the number of humans of this new “species” has kept rising, they have been given a new name-- phubbers(低头族).
Recently, a cartoon created by students from the China Central Academy of Fine Arts put this group of people under the spotlight. In the short film, phubbers with various social identities(身份) bury themselves in their phones. A doctor plays with his cell phone while letting his patient die, a pretty women takes selfies in front of a car accident site, and a father loses his child without knowing about it while using his mobile phone. A chain of similar events eventually leads to the destruction of the world. Although the ending sounds overstated, the damage phubbing can bring is real.
Your health is the first to bear the effect and result of it. “Constantly bending your head to check your cell phone could damage your neck,” Guangming Daily quoted doctors’ words. “The neck is like a rope that breaks after long-term stretching.” Also, staring at cell phones for long periods of time will damage your eyesight gradually, according to the report.
But that’s not all. Being a phubber could also damage your social skills and drive you away from your friends and family. At reunions with family or friends, many people tend to stick to their cell phones while others are chatting happily with each other and this creates a strange atmosphere, Qilu Evening News report.
It can also cost you your life. There have been lots of reports on phubbers who fell to their death, suffered accidents, and were robbed of their cell phones in broad daylight.
36. What is the Chinese meaning of the word “species” in the first paragraph?
A. 品种

Task 3
Many farmers in China are opening new career paths. From drone（无人驾驶飞机） operators to social media influencers（网红）, new types of jobs taken on by Chinese farmers not only bring higher incomes but also bring new life to China’s countryside.
In April 2016, Yu Xiaojun, 28, founded a company in partnership with his friends to provide services including plowing（耕地）, sowing, crop protection and harvesting for large farms. The company now has over 100 sets of machines and equipment and more than 20 workers, serving three counties, including Lujiang, Anhui.
As a wave of short videos sweeps China, many farmers are becoming enthusiastic about sharing their lives online. Livestreaming （网络直播）has become a new farming tool, allowing farmers to get the benefits of selling goods directly to people in cities.
Holding a plate of dried sweet potatoes, Zhang Chuanfeng stood in front of a mobile phone to introduce the product. The 40-year-old farmer is 1.4 meters tall and was worried about his future after struggling in various jobs because of his height. However, his change from farmer to online seller has been a success.
With the support of the local government, Zhang opened his online business. To improve his marketing skills, he attended training courses and learned from other online streamers. In April 2020, Zhang started livestreaming sales by showing local special food from Tangjiahui township in Anhui’s Jinzhai county, his mountainous hometown. The products received a positive reaction from the market, and that encouraged Zhang to include more types of local products in his sales.
Zhang has over 90,000 followers on Douyin. He brought 5 million yuan from sales of local products last year. He also volunteered to help locales sell otherproducts through livestreaming.
“Through my efforts, I have supported my family and bought a car and an apartment, which was unimaginable before,” Zhang said. “Compared to professional livestreamers, we are just beginners. I hope more professional people will join us.”

Task 4
South Korean officials have a message for pet owners in Seoul: Beware---your cat might burn your house down. The warning comes as it was estimated that more than 100 fires over the past three years were started by cats, many of which managed to turn on electric stoves with their furry paws. In the recorded incidents, four people were injured. But often the pets themselves do not survive.
Fires accidentally started by pets are not just a problem in South Korea. In the United States, almost 1,000 home fires each year are started by pets, although it remains unclear what percentage of these blazes are started by cats.Aimed at pet safety, people are advised by experts to ensure that their pet is unable to access appliances when left home alone and gates and cages are recommended to contain them. Experts also recommend using protective covers on stove controls.
Cats can also be heroes in a house fire. In Canada, a cat woke its owners as their home burned during the early hours of the morning in February 2017. Officials said animal pawed its way into the bedroom and bit its owners on the arm as the fire took hold.
But cats aren’t the only animals that have sent firefighters running to family homes. On December 24, 2019, a 45-year-old tortoise in Essex, England, knocked a heat lamp onto its bedding and started a fire while its owners were out of the house. As thick smoke rose, neighbors in the town of Great Dunmow called emergency responders, who rescued the tortoise and extinguished the flames.

Task 5
Nowadays, online shopping has become very popular. People can buy almost everything they need on the Internet. The main reason for its popularity is convenience. You can shop at any time of the day or night, and you don't need to go to a physical store. You just need to click the mouse, and the products will be delivered to your door.
Another advantage of online shopping is the wide variety of products. You can find things that are not available in local stores. For example, if you are looking for a special book or a unique piece of clothing, you are more likely to find it online.

Sometimes, the product you receive may not be the same as what you saw on the screen. Also, there are concerns about the security of online payment. Hackers may steal your personal information.
