Dear Jack,
Knowing that you have trouble learning the Chinese pronunciation, I think it doesn’t matter. After all, it’s difficult for foreigners to grasp it. However, some practical approaches are of great help.
Obviously, Xinhua Dictionary is the first choice for you; so it is highly recommended to refer to it when you come across a challenging Chinese character. Then, with mobile phones catching on, some Chinese learning Apps are increasingly popular with Chinese learners because they are so handy and quick that you can acquire the pronunciation. Last but not least, turn to Chinese friends around you for help. We Chinese consider it a virtue to help others.
I know for sure that you will make much progress in learning Chinese pronunciation. It is welcome to write to me and ask questions.
Yours,
Li Hua

M：Researchers in China have shown an ancient skull to the world for the first time．The skull could belong to a completely new species of humans that lived in Asia over 146，000 years ago．It could be from a group of humans that are the closest relatives to us．The researchers have nicknamed the person the skull came from“Dragon Man”．It was originally found by a Chinese worker in the city of Harbin in 1933 but was kept hidden at the bottom of his family's well．It stayed there for nearly 90 years．The man recently told his family about the skull before he died．His family located it and gave it to scientists．
Scientists say Dragon Man could greatly change our understanding of human evolution．They say he looked more like today's humans than any other members of the human family tree．The species Dragon Man belonged to is probably closer to modern-day humans than Neanderthals were．Researcher Chris Stringer of the Natural History Museum in London described Dragon Man's group．He said，“From the winter temperatures in Harbin today，it looks like they were coping with even extreme cold than the Neanderthals.临川二中2021-2022 学年度下学期高二年级第一次月考

When Simon Cane was in the second grade, he began learning about all the ways humans have an impact on the environment and really took those classroom lessons to heart in a way that set him apart from his schoolmates at his elementary school, P. S. 81, in the Bronx. "He told me we drove too much and made too much pollution, "his dad, Jonathan Cane, told Runner's World. So Simon convinced his parents to start hanging their clothes to dry, taking the stairs instead of elevators, and other "green" measures.
"For much of kindergarten and first grade I rode my bike to Simon's school with him on the back, "Jonathan said. "We had a lot of fun being outdoors. We’d stop to give our dog treats and generally enjoyed it. "As Simon got bigger, though, it wasn't practical for him to ride on his father's back, but it also didn't make sense to ride together-both because of safety concerns and because there was no place to put away Simon's bike. So, most of the time they drove the l.5 miles to school.
But in 2019, when Simon was going into third grade, the 8-year-old boy came up with a new way to help the planet: running the l. 5 miles to P. S. 81. And Jonathan promised his son he'd join him for as long as he wanted.
"We did a test run one day in August, and decided to give it a go. To be honest, I thought he'd blink（眨眼）after it got really cold or rainy, but he never did, "Jonathan said. He recalled one day when the weather was particularly bad. "It's really raining out there today, "he told Simon. And Simon said, "Well then we're going to get wet!" He took pride in toughing it out, and it became a really fun family routine.
Since the star, Simon has run with his dad and their black dog, Lola, and has even inspired his mom, Nicole Sin Quee, to join in. They soon became known as "the family that runs to school"
24. What makes Simon different from his classmates
A. Washing his clothes by himself.
B. Taking many classes after school.
C. Taking green measures to protect the earth.
D. Raising strange questions in class.
25. How did Simon usually go to school in second grade
A. By car. B. By cycling. C. By running. D. By school bus.

C. Simon didn't get support from his father.
D. Simon is much tougher than expected.

D. Three Inspiring Running Athletes to Protect the Environment
C
To persist, life must reproduce（繁衍）. Scientists at the University of Vermont, Tufts University, and the Wyss Institute for Biologically Inspired Engineering at Harvard University have discovered an entirely new form of biological reproduction and applied their discovery to create the first-ever, self-replicating （自我复制的）living robots.
Named Xenobots after the African clawed frog from which scientists take their stem cells, the machines are less than 0. 04 inches wide—small enough to travel inside human bodies. They can walk and swim, survive for weeks without food, and work together in groups. They even have regenerative capabilities; when the scientists sliced into one robot, it healed by itself and kept moving.
The Xenobots could potentially be used toward a host of tasks. Xenobots could be used to clean up radioactive waste and collect microplastics in the oceans. Some Xenobots had holes in their center, which could potentilly be used to transport drugs or medicines. "Traditional robots degrade（降解）over time and can produce harmful ecological and health side effects, "researchers said in the study, which was published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. As biological machines, Xenobots are more environmentally friendly and safer for human health. Aside from these immediate practical tasks, Xenobots could also help researchers to learn more about cell biology—opening the doors to future advancement in human health and longevity.
While the prospect of self-replicating biotechnology could spark concern, the researchers said that the living machines were entirely contained in a lab and easily destroyed, as they are biodegradable and regulated by experts. "There are many things that are possible if we take advantage of this kind of plasticity（可塑性）and ability of cells to solve problems, "said Joshua Bongard, one of the lead researchers at the University of Vermont.
28. Which of the following best explains "regenerative" underlined in paragraph 2
A. Fighting disease. B. Replacing old cells.
C. Self-cleaning regularly. D. Recovering and growing again.
29. What can we learn about Xenobots from paragraph 3
A. They can be widely applied to curing diseases.
B. They can serve well the research on human health.
C. They are specially designed to collect radioactive waste.
D. They are harmless to the environment by degrading plastics.
30. What is Bongard's attitude towards the self-replicating biotechnology
A. Positive. B. Indifferent. C. Doubtful. D. Ambiguous.
31. What does the text mainly talk about
A. A new application of a machine in medicine.
B. The latest trend of developing biotechnology.
C. The invention of the first self-reproduction robots.
D. An experiment on cells from African clawed frogs.

Majlis Jonsson is a 73-year-old living in the centre of Sweden's capital Stockholm. She leads an active life with her friends, travelling around the city and meeting in coffee shops. However, one issue causes her stress.
Sweden has been steadily moving towards a completely cashless society for a number of years. Cash is now used in less than one in five of all cash transactions（交易）in stores—half the number as five years ago. The law says shops can refuse to accept cash. Life can be hard for those unwilling or unable to adapt to the changes. Not everyone hates cash. Majlis Jonsson is one such person. She must go to a bank in order to pay her friend back for a train ticket bought digitally. "I just don't know how to do it. "
Niklas Arvidsson, Sweden's leading expert on the payment system, acknowledges that some people are in danger of being left behind, like the elderly. "We've also got a problem with smaller businessmen in rural areas where perhaps the telecommunication systems are not working, "he Says.
Is Sweden benefiting from all this According to Arvidsson, it is. "Electronic transactions are quicker and cost less in general and make the payment system more efficient. "He also points out that "it is a little bit more difficult in general for the people to get away with not paying taxes or making small thefts without cash. "
Of course, with an increase in digital transactions, the question of data security comes into play. As we freefall through an increasingly virtual world—and payments over the cloud instead of payments with paper—who has access to our information It is a global problem with no easy solution.
But Arvidsson remains largely positive about cashless transactions. "It's like a virtual infrastructure is being built. …. if a highway or a railroad has the capacity to bring people in business closer and increase output, the same thing will happen with technology. I really do believe that once the technology genie is out of the bottle, how do you put it back "
32. What upsets Majlis Josson
A. She owes her friend some money. B. She has to pay without cash.
C. She has to draw money from the bank. D. She knows little about the phone.
33. What's mentioned by Arvidsson as an advantage of digital transactions
A. They help reduce some illegal acts. B. They make paying taxes convenient.
C. They improve telecommunication systems. D. They save the cost of printing paper money.
34. According to the text, what problem will digital transactions bring about
A. They will charge extra fees.
B. They will stimulate overspend.
C. They will destroy the computer system.
D. They will pose a threat to data security.
35. How does Arvidsson show the importance of technology
A. By using study results. B. By making a comparison.
C. By providing examples. D. By quoting a famous saying.

It's certain that we're all getting older. And while the older among us may be no spring chickens any more, growing old gracefully is no bad thing. 36_________ However, as the world population ages, will there be enough people to replace our younger selves
A situation where there are more old people than young certainly has an effect on the world. A report by the Pew Research Center says that globally the number of people over 65 years old will triple by 2050, drastically altering some countries' demographic（人口的）make-up. 37 _______________ Governments will struggle to provide satisfactory pensions, which are ultimately funded by taxes paid by the working population.

Some countries thought the elderly should take care of themselves, while others thought it was the responsibility of the family. 39______________
But old age shouldn't just be seen negatively. Elderly people have knowledge and experience to pass on. Some have wealth which they can spend, helping the economy. And some do voluntary or charity work. 40________________ And these include increasing the retirement age, encouraging people to save for the future, or even convincing people to have more children.
A. And with age comes wisdom.
B. Of course, solutions are needed to tackle the issue.
C. Many thought the government should be responsible.
D. The aging population can be potential new customers.
E. Attitudes to an aging population vary around the world.
F. It also predicts that the world population will decline in the next century.
G. This aging population means an increased demand for health and social care.
