Some of the first national parks in China
Sanjiangyuan National Park
The first national park to be trialed as part of the new system was Sanjiangyuan, the source of the Yangtze, Yellow and Mekong (Lancang) rivers. Situated in Qinghai province, it covers 190,700 sq km of high- altitude wilderness on the Tibetan Plateau. Protected species include snow leopards, wild yaks, and Tibetan antelopes.
Wuyi Mountain National Park
Both a Biosphere Reserve and a UNESCO World Heritage Site, Wuyi Shan is one of the world’s largest subtropical forest systems. Its dramatic gorges and rivers are home to thousands of types of protected wildlife like migratory birds and rare amphibians. And many visitors come to explore the archaeological remains of Han City as well as numerous 11th-century Daoist temples and shrines.
Northeast China Tiger and Leopard National Park
Situated in the Changbai Mountains along China’s border with Russia, this park covers the wild habitats of the big cats and since 2017, 12 Siberian small tigers and 11 new leopards have been born here. Nearby is Jingpo Lake National Geopark near Mudanjang in Heilongjiang province, with lakes, volcanic craters and ancient lava flows.
Hainan Tropical Rainforest National Park
Preserving the tropical ecosystem of Hainan Island, China’s southernmost province, this national park is home to the world’s rarest primate, the critically endangered Hainan gibbon.

I started earning money as an apprentice at a printing factory, sweeping the floors until I met my life changing mentor at the age of 19. It completely changed the way I think about and do things, and so I finished my apprenticeship and started working in sales. I won a business scholarship at 22 and built up my name in sales. I’ve always been super-disciplined and that helped me climb the corporate ladder, very quickly, at a very young age. Since then I’ve become rich beyond my dreams, travelling around the world and making calls to the high-status people to help them dig deep and find their self-belief.
From my point of view, there’s nothing stopping any of us from becoming successful, and I truly believe that the biggest problem we face is a lack of self-belief. Education can be an obstacle too, when people know what they want but don’t know how to go about it. To them I would say, really educate yourself about self-improvement and find yourself an accountability buddy (问责伙伴) who can keep you on the straight and narrow.
Three months ago I had a business owner come to me in distress. He was about to close his kitchen-making business down and declare bankruptcy so he could go work for his father at his beach hut, which he didn’t want to do. Instead when he heard about me in the media, he told me he was going to give it one last shot, and hired me to work with him mentally to turn things around. Within weeks he’d tripled his income, and things are really looking up.
And a lot of people ask me how I get someone to do that. The biggest thing that people really find through me is self-belief. My role is to support them and inspire and motivate them, and show them the possibilities of what can be achieved.

C We might as well improve ourselves through education.
D. We must seek advice from a life coach.
27. Why did the author mention the distressed business owner

D. To give an example of how his job worked.
C
When people hear “artificial intelligence (AI)”, many think of big data. There’s a reason for that: some of the most prominent AI breakthroughs in the past decade have relied on enormous data sets. But AI is not only about large data sets, and the research in small data approaches has grown extensively over the past ten years.
If you take the top 100 biggest innovations of our time, perhaps around 60% to 65% are really based on small data. Big data is all about finding connections, but small data is all about finding the causation, that is, the reason why.
Sokkelund was bought by an experienced industry professional. The restaurant has a French cafe, in the mid-to high price-segment. At the starting point in 2009 the restaurant had 40 seats and an annual turnover of about USD 1 million. In 2017, 34 seats were added acquiring the neighboring shop and by building a small veranda. The turnover was about USD 6 million-an impressive level of grow driven by a talented team and innovative business thinking.
In the case of Sokkelund, the process of transforming the company to take advantage of small data was started with a focus on improving the traditional competitive parameters (规范；范围) of a restaurant in a structured step-by-step plan. This required managerial skills and industry experience. In terms of the effects on the business model, these changes not only led to cost reductions, but lowered customer acquisition costs, increased the number of customers retention and added new revenue channels.
28. What can we know from the first two paragraphs
A. Research in small data approaches has grown widely.
B. People have more research in big data.
C. Most of the innovations are based on big data.
D. AI breakthroughs have nothing to do with small data.
29. What does the underlined word “turnover” probably mean
A. The money paid to the government.
B. The money added to someone’s wage.
C. The amount of business done in a period.
D. The amount of the goods bought annually.
30. Why did Sokkelund’s income grow dramatically
A. It was mainly due to industry experience.
B. Small data has been made good use of.
C. A structured plan was adopted to lower customer acquisition.
D. It benefited from the traditional business model.
31. What’s the purpose of the passage？
A. To clarify some misconceptions. B. To introduce a big data approach.
C. To predict the future of AI. D. To stress the significance of small data.
D
German workers enjoy good worker protections and shorter working hours than those in other countries. How can a country that works an average of 35 hours per week (with additionally average 24 paid vacation days) maintain such a high level of productivity
In German business culture, when an employee is at work, he should not be doing anything other than his work. Facebook, office chat with co-workers, and pulling up a fake spreadsheet when your boss walks by are socially unacceptable behaviors.
In the BBC documentary Make Me A German, a young German woman explained her culture shock while on a working exchange to the UK. “I was in England for an exchange. I was in the office and the people are talking all the time about their private things...” What’s the plan for tonight ’, and all the time drinking coffee...” She was quite surprised by the casual nature of British workers. Upon further discussion, the Germans reveal that Facebook is not allowed in the office, and no private email is permitted.
German business culture is one of intense focus and direct communication. German workers will directly speak to a manager about performance reviews and use commanding language without softening the orders with polite phrases. For example, an American would say, “It would be great if you could get this to me by 3pm,” while a German would say, “T need this by 3pm”.
Germans work hard and play hard. Since the working day is focused on achieving efficient productivity, the off hours are truly off hours. Because of the focused atmosphere and formal environment of German businesses, employees don’t necessarily hang out together after work. Germans generally value a separation between private life and working life.
32. What should an employee do while working in German
A. Glance over Facebook. B. Just do their work.
C. Chat with co-workers. D. Send private emails.
33. How did the young German woman think of the working life of British workers
A. Agreeable. B. Understanding. C. Tolerant D. Astonished.
34. Which of the following is TRUE
A. German employees have longer hours than most other countries.
B. German employees always communicate by using polite words.
C. German employees often work hard and pursue efficiency.
D. German employees hang out together after work.
35. What is the main idea of the passage
A. Unacceptable behaviors in German business culture.
B. Germans value goal-oriented and direct communication.
C. Germans attach importance to their working life.
D. Why Germans work fewer hours but produce more.

It was a chance meeting that revealed the reality of one life as it changed another. About 20 years ago, while on the way to visit a student’s house, Zhang Guimei noticed a girl sitting on the hillside. She was staring blankly into space. She was completely preoccupied. The girl, 13, told Zhang she was about to get married. It was arranged by her parents. “But I want to go to school,” the girl says. Zhang went to her house and tried to persuade her parents to let the girl return, to school and promised to pay for her tuition herself. However, they didn’t agree.

Imagine a world where you move around in front of a personal computer in your own sound space. You listen to your favorite songs, play loud computer games or watch a movie—all without other people hearing the sound. That is the possibility presented by “sound beaming,” a new technology from Noveto Systems, an Israeli company.
On Friday, the company presented a desktop device that sends sound directly to a listener without the need for headphones or a special receiver. Noveto Systems gave The Associated Press (AP) a chance to test its Sound Beamer 1.0 before its debut. The AP’s Louise Dixon writes that listening to the device is like something from a science fiction movie. The sound seems so close it feels like it is inside your ears while also in front, above and behind them.
Noveto expects the device will have many uses. Office workers could listen to music or conference calls without others hearing. People could play a game, a movie or music without waking up others in the same room. Because the device does not use headphones, it is possible to hear other sounds in the room clearly.
The device uses a 3-D technology that finds and follows the ear position of the listener. It sends ultrasonic waves to create sound pockets by the user’s ears. Sound can be heard in stereo or 3-D. The 3-D method creates sound on all sides of the listener The demo version of the device included nature videos of birds on a lake, bees flying and a quiet waterway. By changing a setting, the sound can follow a listener around when they move their head. It also is possible to move out sound beam’s path and hear nothing at all.
While the idea of sound beaming is not new, Noveto was the first to launch the technology. Its chief executive officer Christophe Ramstein said a smaller version of the device will be ready for release to consumers next year.
8. What do we know about Sound Beamer
A. It’s a device appearing in the science fiction movie.
B. Listeners got its sound through a receiver.
C. It can prevent other sound being heard.
D. The smaller one will be on market next year.
9. What does the underlined word “debut” in paragraph 2 mean
A. New version. B. First appearance. C. Another failure. D. Some doubt.
10. What does the fourth paragraph tell us
A. How the device works. B. How to use the device.
C. The device’s advantage. D. Why the device is invented.
11. What is the text mainly about
A. The introduction of a new device — sound beamer. B. The usage of 3D technology.
C. The influence brought by sound beamer. D. 3D technology and listening experience.

Some of the first national parks in China

Northeast China Tiger and Leopard National Park
Situated in the Changbai Mountains along China’s border with Russia, this park covers the wild habitats of the big cats and since 2017, 12 Siberian small tigers and 11 new leopards have been born here. Nearby is Jingpo Lake National Geopark near Mudanjang in Heilongjiang province, with lakes, volcanic craters and ancient lava flows.

I started earning money as an apprentice at a printing factory, sweeping the floors until I met my life changing mentor at the age of 19. It completely changed the way I think about and do things, and so I finished my apprenticeship and started working in sales. I won a business scholarship at 22 and built up my name in sales. I’ve always been super-disciplined and that helped me climb the corporate ladder, very quickly, at a very young age. Since then I’ve become rich beyond my dreams, travelling around the world and making calls to the high-status people to help them dig deep and find their self-belief.
From my point of view, there’s nothing stopping any of us from becoming successful, and I truly believe that the biggest problem we face is a lack of self-belief. Education can be an obstacle too, when people know what they want but don’t know how to go about it. To them I would say, really educate yourself about self-improvement and find yourself an accountability buddy (问责伙伴) who can keep you on the straight and narrow.
Three months ago I had a business owner come to me in distress. He was about to close his kitchen-making business down and declare bankruptcy so he could go work for his father at his beach hut, which he didn’t want to do. Instead when he heard about me in the media, he told me he was going to give it one last shot, and hired me to work with him mentally to turn things around. Within weeks he’d tripled his income, and things are really looking up.
And a lot of people ask me how I get someone to do that. The biggest thing that people really find through me is self-belief. My role is to support them and inspire and motivate them, and show them the possibilities of what can be achieved.
24. What does the author do for a living now
A. By making sales calls. B. By giving life guidance.
C. By offering business advice. D. By providing technical support
25. According to the author, how can we become successful

C. We gain enough support D. We have great courage.
26. When we don’t know how to achieve our goal, what suggestion does the author make
A We should read more books on self-improvement.
B. We had better become an accountability buddy.
C We might as well improve ourselves through education.
D. We must seek advice from a life coach.
27. Why did the author mention the distressed business owner
A. To show the danger of doing businesses.
B. To prove the power of believing in oneself.
C. To explain how he got started on the job.
D. To give an example of how his job worked.
C
When people hear “artificial intelligence (AI)”, many think of big data. There’s a reason for that: some of the most prominent AI breakthroughs in the past decade have relied on enormous data sets. But AI is not only about large data sets, and the research in small data approaches has grown extensively over the past ten years.
If you take the top 100 biggest innovations of our time, perhaps around 60% to 65% are really based on small data. Big data is all about finding connections, but small data is all about finding the causation, that is, the reason why.
Sokkelund was bought by an experienced industry professional. The restaurant has a French cafe, in the mid-to high price-segment. At the starting point in 2009 the restaurant had 40 seats and an annual turnover of about USD 1 million. In 2017, 34 seats were added acquiring the neighboring shop and by building a small veranda. The turnover was about USD 6 million-an impressive level of grow driven by a talented team and innovative business thinking.
In the case of Sokkelund, the process of transforming the company to take advantage of small data was started with a focus on improving the traditional competitive parameters (规范；范围) of a restaurant in a structured step-by-step plan. This required managerial skills and industry experience. In terms of the effects on the business model, these changes not only led to cost reductions, but lowered customer acquisition costs, increased the number of customers retention and added new revenue channels.
28. What can we know from the first two paragraphs
A. Research in small data approaches has grown widely.
B. People have more research in big data.
C. Most of the innovations are based on big data.
D. AI breakthroughs have nothing to do with small data.
29. What does the underlined word “turnover” probably mean
A. The money paid to the government.
B. The money added to someone’s wage.
C. The amount of business done in a period.
D. The amount of the goods bought annually.
30. Why did Sokkelund’s income grow dramatically
A. It was mainly due to industry experience.
B. Small data has been made good use of.
C. A structured plan was adopted to lower customer acquisition.
D. It benefited from the traditional business model.
31. What’s the purpose of the passage？
A. To clarify some misconceptions. B. To introduce a big data approach.
C. To predict the future of AI. D. To stress the significance of small data.
D
German workers enjoy good worker protections and shorter working hours than those in other countries. How can a country that works an average of 35 hours per week (with additionally average 24 paid vacation days) maintain such a high level of productivity
In German business culture, when an employee is at work, he should not be doing anything other than his work. Facebook, office chat with co-workers, and pulling up a fake spreadsheet when your boss walks by are socially unacceptable behaviors.
In the BBC documentary Make Me A German, a young German woman explained her culture shock while on a working exchange to the UK. “I was in England for an exchange. I was in the office and the people are talking all the time about their private things...” What’s the plan for tonight ’, and all the time drinking coffee...” She was quite surprised by the casual nature of British workers. Upon further discussion, the Germans reveal that Facebook is not allowed in the office, and no private email is permitted.
German business culture is one of intense focus and direct communication. German workers will directly speak to a manager about performance reviews and use commanding language without softening the orders with polite phrases. For example, an American would say, “It would be great if you could get this to me by 3pm,” while a German would say, “T need this by 3pm”.
Germans work hard and play hard. Since the working day is focused on achieving efficient productivity, the off hours are truly off hours. Because of the focused atmosphere and formal environment of German businesses, employees don’t necessarily hang out together after work. Germans generally value a separation between private life and working life.
32. What should an employee do while working in German
A. Glance over Facebook. B. Just do their work.
C. Chat with co-workers. D. Send private emails.
33. How did the young German woman think of the working life of British workers
A. Agreeable. B. Understanding. C. Tolerant D. Astonished.
34. Which of the following is TRUE
A. German employees have longer hours than most other countries.
B. German employees always communicate by using polite words.
C. German employees often work hard and pursue efficiency.
D. German employees hang out together after work.
35. What is the main idea of the passage
A. Unacceptable behaviors in German business culture.
B. Germans value goal-oriented and direct communication.
C. Germans attach importance to their working life.
D. Why Germans work fewer hours but produce more.

Zhang Guimei, a rural teacher in Huaping county, Lijiang, Yunnan province, breaking cycle of poverty in mountain areas realizes potential of students.
It was a chance meeting that revealed the reality of one life as it changed another. About 20 years ago, while on the way to visit a student’s house, Zhang Guimei noticed a girl sitting on the hillside. She was staring blankly into space. She was completely preoccupied. The girl, 13, told Zhang she was about to get married. It was arranged by her parents. “But I want to go to school,” the girl says. Zhang went to her house and tried to persuade her parents to let the girl return, to school and promised to pay for her tuition herself. However, they didn’t agree.
Zhang says she feels sorry not being able to help “We always say, each child should stand on the same starting line, but these girls didn’t even have a chance to get on the track,” she tells Xinhua News Agency.
That fateful encounter persuaded Zhang to build a free big school for girls, aiming to help break the cycle that saw women drop out of education, marry early and spend their whole life in the remote mountain.

More than 1. 800 graduates have been admitted to college, which is regarded a “miracle” in the remote area, as most students didn’t perform well in academic study before the school was established.
In early December. she was named a national outstanding member of the Communist Party of China for her dedication to education in rural China. She was also given the honor of the country’s “role model for teachers”, advanced worker “and” outstanding woman”. Her moving stories inspire thousands of people.

Imagine a world where you move around in front of a personal computer in your own sound space. You listen to your favorite songs, play loud computer games or watch a movie—all without other people hearing the sound. That is the possibility presented by “sound beaming,” a new technology from Noveto Systems, an Israeli company.
On Friday, the company presented a desktop device that sends sound directly to a listener without the need for headphones or a special receiver. Noveto Systems gave The Associated Press (AP) a chance to test its Sound Beamer 1.0 before its debut. The AP’s Louise Dixon writes that listening to the device is like something from a science fiction movie. The sound seems so close it feels like it is inside your ears while also in front, above and behind them.
Noveto expects the device will have many uses. Office workers could listen to music or conference calls without others hearing. People could play a game, a movie or music without waking up others in the same room. Because the device does not use headphones, it is possible to hear other sounds in the room clearly.
The device uses a 3-D technology that finds and follows the ear position of the listener. It sends ultrasonic waves to create sound pockets by the user’s ears. Sound can be heard in stereo or 3-D. The 3-D method creates sound on all sides of the listener The demo version of the device included nature videos of birds on a lake, bees flying and a quiet waterway. By changing a setting, the sound can follow a listener around when they move their head. It also is possible to move out sound beam’s path and hear nothing at all.
While the idea of sound beaming is not new, Noveto was the first to launch the technology. Its chief executive officer Christophe Ramstein said a smaller version of the device will be ready for release to consumers next year.
8. What do we know about Sound Beamer
A. It’s a device appearing in the science fiction movie.
B. Listeners got its sound through a receiver.
C. It can prevent other sound being heard.
D. The smaller one will be on market next year.
9. What does the underlined word “debut” in paragraph 2 mean
A. New version. B. First appearance. C. Another failure. D. Some doubt.
10. What does the fourth paragraph tell us
A. How the device works. B. How to use the device.
C. The device’s advantage. D. Why the device is invented.
11. What is the text mainly about
A. The introduction of a new device — sound beamer. B. The usage of 3D technology.
C. The influence brought by sound beamer. D. 3D technology and listening experience.

I started earning money as an apprentice at a printing factory, sweeping the floors until I met my life changing mentor at the age of 19. It completely changed the way I think about and do things, and so I finished my apprenticeship and started working in sales. I won a business scholarship at 22 and built up my name in sales. I’ve always been super-disciplined and that helped me climb the corporate ladder, very quickly, at a very young age. Since then I’ve become rich beyond my dreams, travelling around the world and making calls to the high-status people to help them dig deep and find their self-belief.
From my point of view, there’s nothing stopping any of us from becoming successful, and I truly believe that the biggest problem we face is a lack of self-belief. Education can be an obstacle too, when people know what they want but don’t know how to go about it. To them I would say, really educate yourself about self-improvement and find yourself an accountability buddy (问责伙伴) who can keep you on the straight and narrow.
Three months ago I had a business owner come to me in distress. He was about to close his kitchen-making business down and declare bankruptcy so he could go work for his father at his beach hut, which he didn’t want to do. Instead when he heard about me in the media, he told me he was going to give it one last shot, and hired me to work with him mentally to turn things around. Within weeks he’d tripled his income, and things are really looking up.
And a lot of people ask me how I get someone to do that. The biggest thing that people really find through me is self-belief. My role is to support them and inspire and motivate them, and show them the possibilities of what can be achieved.

When people hear “artificial intelligence (AI)”, many think of big data. There’s a reason for that: some of the most prominent AI breakthroughs in the past decade have relied on enormous data sets. But AI is not only about large data sets, and the research in small data approaches has grown extensively over the past ten years.
If you take the top 100 biggest innovations of our time, perhaps around 60% to 65% are really based on small data. Big data is all about finding connections, but small data is all about finding the causation, that is, the reason why.
Sokkelund was bought by an experienced industry professional. The restaurant has a French cafe, in the mid-to high price-segment. At the starting point in 2009 the restaurant had 40 seats and an annual turnover of about USD 1 million. In 2017, 34 seats were added acquiring the neighboring shop and by building a small veranda. The turnover was about USD 6 million-an impressive level of grow driven by a talented team and innovative business thinking.
In the case of Sokkelund, the process of transforming the company to take advantage of small data was started with a focus on improving the traditional competitive parameters (规范；范围) of a restaurant in a structured step-by-step plan. This required managerial skills and industry experience. In terms of the effects on the business model, these changes not only led to cost reductions, but lowered customer acquisition costs, increased the number of customers retention and added new revenue channels.
28. What can we know from the first two paragraphs
A. Research in small data approaches has grown widely.
B. People have more research in big data.
C. Most of the innovations are based on big data.
D. AI breakthroughs have nothing to do with small data.
29. What does the underlined word “turnover” probably mean
A. The money paid to the government.
B. The money added to someone’s wage.
C. The amount of business done in a period.
D. The amount of the goods bought annually.
30. Why did Sokkelund’s income grow dramatically
A. It was mainly due to industry experience.
B. Small data has been made good use of.
C. A structured plan was adopted to lower customer acquisition.
D. It benefited from the traditional business model.
31. What’s the purpose of the passage？
A. To clarify some misconceptions. B. To introduce a big data approach.
C. To predict the future of AI. D. To stress the significance of small data.
D
German workers enjoy good worker protections and shorter working hours than those in other countries. How can a country that works an average of 35 hours per week (with additionally average 24 paid vacation days) maintain such a high level of productivity
In German business culture, when an employee is at work, he should not be doing anything other than his work. Facebook, office chat with co-workers, and pulling up a fake spreadsheet when your boss walks by are socially unacceptable behaviors.
In the BBC documentary Make Me A German, a young German woman explained her culture shock while on a working exchange to the UK. “I was in England for an exchange. I was in the office and the people are talking all the time about their private things...” What’s the plan for tonight ’, and all the time drinking coffee...” She was quite surprised by the casual nature of British workers. Upon further discussion, the Germans reveal that Facebook is not allowed in the office, and no private email is permitted.
German business culture is one of intense focus and direct communication. German workers will directly speak to a manager about performance reviews and use commanding language without softening the orders with polite phrases. For example, an American would say, “It would be great if you could get this to me by 3pm,” while a German would say, “T need this by 3pm”.
Germans work hard and play hard. Since the working day is focused on achieving efficient productivity, the off hours are truly off hours. Because of the focused atmosphere and formal environment of German businesses, employees don’t necessarily hang out together after work. Germans generally value a separation between private life and working life.
32 What should an employee do while working in German
A. Glance over Facebook. B. Just do their work.
C. Chat with co-workers. D. Send private emails.
33. How did the young German woman think of the working life of British workers
A Agreeable. B. Understanding. C. Tolerant D. Astonished.
34. Which of the following is TRUE
A. German employees have longer hours than most other countries.
B. German employees always communicate by using polite words.
C. German employees often work hard and pursue efficiency.
D. German employees hang out together after work.
35. What is the main idea of the passage
A. Unacceptable behaviors in German business culture.
B. Germans value goal-oriented and direct communication.
C. Germans attach importance to their working life.
D. Why Germans work fewer hours but produce more.
