四、阅读理解

What are the cultural differences between China and the West You might be able to find the answer in Cao Siyu’s comics(漫画).
Cao was born in Beijing, but left home at 20 and has studied and lived in the US, the UK, and France for 12 years. Having seen so many cultures, Cao wanted to use her drawing skills to show the differences she has experienced. So she created the cartoon series TinyEyesComics.
“My experience shows that although travel is much easier and faster today, the distance between cultures hasn’t shortened,” Cao said. She hopes to build bridges and break down misunderstandings between different cultures. One of her cartoons shows water forms in different countries. Three glasses of water are shown. The glass of water from the US has ice; the one from France is full of sparkling water(气泡水);the one from China is steaming(冒热气的).
Cao also uses her cartoons to show different ways of thinking and social customs. During the COVID 19 pandemic, she used her comics to explain why Chinese people like to wear masks while Western people don’t.“Her simple pictures have played a big part in reflecting(反映) Chinese culture,” Italian magazine Grazia reported.
Many foreign readers say that Cao’s comics help them understand China, while Chinese living abroad have felt that they are seen and understood.
She said that this voice had been the biggest motivation for her to keep creating.

　　The mountains where I live are full of curvy(弯曲的) and dangerous roads. I was driving down one of those roads last spring. Days of storm made the ground wet.
As I turned around, I saw a tree that had fallen across the road. I slowly drove around it. Then I stopped. I knew it was only a matter of time before someone driving faster than I was would run into that tree.
I got out of my car and tried to pull the tree into the pool, but it was too big and heavy to move. I didn’t know what to do. But 30 seconds later, a white truck appeared and pulled over.
Out stepped a young man.“You need a chainsaw(链锯) ” he asked. I said, “Yes!” He pulled one out of the back of his truck. He cut the tree into several parts while I carried them across the road and dropped them on the other side.“You never know when you’ll need a chainsaw,” I joked while my new friend smiled and put his chainsaw back in the truck. I said goodbye and watched him drive off before heading back to my own car.

In America, a new activity known as “zero waste” is becoming popular. It is carried out in schools, coffee shops, gyms, restaurants and other places.“Zero waste” activity calls on people to produce less rubbish. It encourages people to reuse whatever they can.
Although the idea seems to be a little unrealistic(不实际的),it is necessary. According to a new report, American people produce the largest amount of rubbish in the world. Each person produces about 4.6 pounds of rubbish each day. More than half of the rubbish is put into landfills and then burned. Actually, this is bad for the environment. Besides this, more landfills are needed.
“Nobody wants to have a landfill near his house,” said Jon D. Johnson from the Environmental Protection Agency, which helps to carry out “zero waste” activity.“There aren’t enough landfills, so we can’t put all our rubbish into them. We should try to recycle it as much as we can.”
1.What does “zero waste” encourage people to do (不超过10个词)

2.How much rubbish does each person produce every day in America (不超过5个词)

3.How do people deal with most of the rubbish now (不超过10个词)

Firstly, we went to pick tea in person and made things by hand to experience life. Secondly, we got close to nature and learnt more knowledge by watching many real plants and animals. Then, after we visited some museums as well as places of interest, we understood Chinese history and culture more deeply. Finally, we saw some meaningful movies and felt the great changes of our country.
　　In my opinion, the study trip is very helpful for us and we will be able to have more chances to take part in these kinds of activities.
