Song Chunfang still remembers his teacher Yuan Longping, known as the “father of hybrid rice,” telling them to speed up the promotion of hybrid rice in Madagascar before their trip to the country in October 2020.
Yuan Longping, famous for developing the first high-yield hybrid rice strain capable of eliminating (消灭) hunger for large numbers of people, died of organ failure at 91 on May 22, 2021.
In April 1979, Yuan presented his paper to an international academic conference on hybrid rice in Manila, sharing China's experience in hybrid rice research with the rest of the world. Over four decades, research teams working on hybrid rice have been promoting the technology overseas. So far, Yuan's hybrid rice has been grown in more than 60 countries, with a total growing area of 8 million hectares (公顷) outside China, according to the China National Hybrid Rice R&D Center where Yuan worked.
Established in Madagascar in 2019, the African sub-center is the only overseas sub-center of China's national hybrid rice engineering technology research center, and it is functioning well. Chinese experts in the sub-center set up a service chain including providing seeds, relevant training and technical guidance. More than 100 skilled local trainees were given online courses to become hybrid rice experts who can better serve the needs of local farmers. So far, the sub-center has approved three hybrid rice varieties in Madagascar, with two other varieties suitable for growing in most regions of the country expected to gain approval this year.
4. Why was Yuan Longping known as the “father of hybrid rice”
A. Because he sped up the planting of hybrid rice.
B. Because he promoted the first hybrid rice strain.
C Because his hybrid rice eliminated people's feeling of hunger.
D. Because he contributed greatly on hybrid rice development.
5. Paragraph 3 mainly tells about________.
A Yuan's effort in promotion of hybrid rice overseas B. the global hybrid rice development in the past
C. rice-growing area distribution outside China D. the influence of Yuan's paper on hybrid rice
6. What can we learn from the African sub-center
A. It is a company selling rice-growing technologies.
B. It functions well in promoting China's hybrid rice.
C. It teaches local farmers to grow rice directly.
D. It has altogether five rice varieties to approve.
7. The author wrote this passage mainly to________.
A. tell Yuan Longping's contribution B. report Yuan Longping's death
C. present hybrid rice's achievement D. show African sub-center's success
C
One of Britain's few typical contributions to world culture may come to an end, according to a survey that suggests holiday postcards are being emailed and texted into extinction(消亡). More than half of the 1,000 holiday-makers interviewed said they had decided to send fewer cards, turning instead to their electronic competitors.
A quarter of the respondents(受访者)dismissed postcards as old-fashioned and slow to arrive. A further 14% admitted that thinking of something to fill the space was too challenging, compared with a call home. Although officially invented by a Hungarian, Emanuel Herrmann, in 1869, the idea of illustrated cards was taken up with most enthusiasm in Victorian Britain, joining Gothic architecture and landscape gardening as fields in which the country excelled.
“If the British postcard did become extinct, we would lose for ever something of great importance to the nation," said Chris Mottershead of Thomson Holidays, which charged with the survey. He was backed by Marie Angelou of Sussex University, who has studied the importance of sending and receiving postcards. “Postcards are nothing like phone calls, instant texting and direct photo shots via the mobile," she said. “All these are useful, practical devices, but postcards offer something else, something additional that is not mundane(世俗的)and simply functional, but imaginative and personal. They can produce the real atmosphere of your holiday in a way that nothing else can do. They're also for more than a moment—with some people adding them to collections built up over years and years.”
Postcard-collecting, is third only to coins and stamps in Britain's related tradition of collecting things. The country's uniquely postcard-related achievements include the invention in 1902 of the“divided back”. With the address taking up half of the writing area, brief postcard scribbles(潦草的书写)became the forerunner to today's text messages.
8. What does the survey suggest
A. Postcards are being emailed to people. B. Fewer people care about holidays.
C Postcards are now less preferred. D. Paper cards are people's favorite.
9. What does the underlined phrase "was taken up with most enthusiasm" in paragraph 2 probably mean
A. Gained popularity. B. Took place. C. Came back. D. Went into service.
10. What does Marie Angelou think of postcards
A. Postcards are not as effective as phone calls. B. Postcards send information much more quickly.
C. Postcards should give way to text messages. D. Postcards carry more than what they show.
11. What is the best title for the text
A. Last Post for Britain's Card Habit B. Time for A Change
C. Britain: Dreamland for Postcards D. Fall of A Great Power
D
Human societies depend on healthy ecosystems (生态系统). People use their products in the shape of fish, meat, crops and fibers such as cotton and silk. Medicines may be directly harvested from the natural world or inspired by molecules (分子) and elements found within it. Through light reaction, trees and other plants take in carbon and pump out oxygen.
The services that ecosystems provide to humans depend, in turn, on there being a diversity of living things. More than 75% of global food-crop types, including coffee, cocoa and almonds, are pollinated (授粉) by animals. The complex web supporting every food chain and ecosystem means that the narrow range of species that humans eat and exploit cannot be sustained (维持) without the existence of a much greater diversity of animals, plants and bacteria.
When IPBES published its assessment of the state of global biodiversity in 2019, it offered a sobering picture. Roughly 1 million animal and plant species were considered to be at risk of extinction. These included many that are used in farming. At least 9% of the 6,200 sorts of house-trained mammals that humans eat, or use to produce food, had become extinct by 2016, and at least 1,000 more are threatened. And one-third of ocean fish stocks were being unsustainably exploited in 2015.
Surveys also show that the loss of biodiversity is the result of a combination of factors: climate change, pollution, human exploitation of land, sea, plants and animals, and the movement of some species into new territories where they destroy existing ecosystems.
Understanding a problem, however, is a necessary step towards solving it. And that is where technology can help. Ironically (讽刺地), it is humans’ use of technology, whether in simple forms such as chainsaws (链锯) or dragnets, or more complex ones such as modern agriculture and transportation, that is chiefly responsible for biodiversity loss. The challenge now is to arrange it so that it is not just part of the problem, but part of the solution.
12. What does paragraph 1 try to tell
A. Great success achieved by human societies. B. People’s role in reconstructing the ecosystems.
C. People’s wisdom and experience in exploiting nature. D. Benefits brought by ecosystems to human societies.
13. In paragraph 2, the author tries to explain the relationship between________.
A. humans and ecosystems B. ecosystems and biodiversity
C. animals and food chain D. biodiversity and resources
14. What does the underlined word “sobering” in paragraph 3 mean
A. Saddening. B. Comprehensive. C. Concrete. D. Thorough.
15. Which of the following will the author probably agree
A. We need to rid technology to promote biodiversity.
B. Loss of biodiversity is simply related to human activities.
C. Technology is double-edged when it comes to biodiversity.
D. Climate change poses greater risks than loss of biodiversity.

One of Britain's few typical contributions to world culture may come to an end, according to a survey that suggests holiday postcards are being emailed and texted into extinction(消亡).

答案 Knowing that you are willing to learn Chinese traditional art skills, I would like to recommend paper cutting to you.
First of all, paper cutting is the most popular folk traditional art in China. It has a history of more than 1500 years. During the Spring Festival, people use paper cutting to decorate doors, windows and rooms, which can enhance the festive atmosphere. What’s more, there are many kinds of paper-cut, such as character paper-cut, picture paper-cut, Chinese character paper-cut and so on. You can learn paper-cut Chinese characters so that you can learn more about Chinese.
I hope you will learn and master this skill soon.
