Do you still remember the cultural TV show National Treasure hosted by Zhang Guoli on China Central TV As a cultural show, this program is to show the background stories about some national treasures. The treasures in the show are presented by national treasure keepers who tell their stories with the collections in a special way. Today, I'll introduce two treasures to you.
Name Sword of Goujian (勾践剑) Tiger Shaped Tally (杜虎符)

Several large companies have begun creating paper bottles to replace glass and plastic ones.
A company called Paboco has been working with many large companies to develop paper bottles. These companies are creating their own bottle designs.
Clearly, one of the biggest challenges is keeping a paper bottle from leaking (渗漏). The inside of the bottle needs a special liner (衬层) to make sure the liquid doesn't leak through. Many companies are lining their bottles with thin plastic.
Though bottle makers may say this liner can be removed and recycled, many recycling programs don't have the right machines to deal with these liners.
A Danish beer company called Carlsberg is working with Paboco on a paper bottle called the “Green Fiber Bottle”. Now the bottle uses a plastic liner. In the future the company hopes to use a “bio plastic (生物塑料)” that will break down naturally over time.
But even without the plastic, paper bottles aren't perfect. Most paper bottles use wood pulp(木浆). That could lead to the loss of forests.
Frugalpac,__a company from the United Kingdom, has created bottles made of recycled paper, so no trees need to be cut down. Frugalpac still uses plastic liners, though. But with so many companies working towards the same goal, we will see more paper bottles on store shelves in the near future.
44. One of the biggest challenges of using paper bottles is ____.
A. how to use fewer liners
B. how to make perfect liners
C. keeping the paper bottles from breaking down
D. keeping the paper bottles from leaking
45. What does the underlined word “Frugalpac” refer to
A. A Danish milk company.
B. A Danish beer company.
C. A company from the United States of America.
D. A company from the United Kingdom.
46. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage
A. A company called Paboco has been working to develop paper bottles alone.
B. Many paper bottles have the thin plastic inside.
C. It's impossible to remove and recycle the liners of paper bottles.
D. The loss of forests leads to the use of wood pulp in most paper bottles.
47. What's the main idea of this passage
A. Paper bottles are not perfect.
B. Bottles are made of recycled paper.
C. Some companies work to develop paper bottles.
D. Some companies work to develop glass and plastic bottles.
C
Tea and coffee are two of the most popular drinks in the world. However, people usually like one more than the other. These drinks also have very different uses.
Tea drinking started in China over 4,000 years ago. Tea is made from leaves. These days, some people drink tea for health, using it to help with stress (压力) or losing weight. However, most people in tea drinking countries think of tea as more than just a healthy drink. In fact, tea drinking in some countries is a part of the culture. In Turkey (土耳其), tea is always there when people meet. Whether in someone's home or a company, tea is always offered as a way of welcoming. In the UK, homes and offices usually have tea time. Tea and other dishes are served at tea time in the afternoon. It is a way of relaxing with friends or co workers (同事).
Coffee came much later than tea, just over 1,000 years ago. Coffee is made from beans. Something in the coffee beans makes a person feel active. Most people do not drink coffee to relax. Instead, they drink coffee to get going. Many people drink coffee in the morning to help them wake up. Others will also drink coffee during short breaks in the afternoon to keep going through the working day. Some people may visit coffee shops just to meet and talk with friends. However, many people in coffee shops drink coffee while working on their computers.
Is tea or coffee more common in your country Between the two, which do you like to drink more
48. We can learn from Paragraph 2 that people in the UK ____.
A. drink tea to get fat
B. offer tea to say goodbye
C. think of tea as a bad drink
D. have tea to relax
49. Which of the following is NOT true according to Paragraph 3
A. Coffee came much earlier than tea.
B. Many people drink coffee to wake up.
C. Many people work on their computers in coffee shops.
D. Some people meet friends in coffee shops.
50. What is the best title of the passage
A. The Smells of Tea and Coffee
B. The Prices of Tea and Coffee
C. The Different Cultures of Tea and Coffee
D. The Different Ways of Making Tea and Coffee

Can you imagine a world without chocolate According to chocolate makers, it could happen if we don't act soon.
One of the main causes of the chocolate shortage (短缺) is less production of cocoa (可可). New plant diseases (疾病) and little rain in Ivory Coast and Ghana,the world's largest producers,have reduced cocoa production by 40 percent in the past 10 years. What's worse,many cocoa farmers are changing to easier-to-grow crops in order to make more money.
Therefore, what we can do is increase cocoa production. To prevent more farmers from changing,researchers at the International Cocoa Control Center are trying to create new cocoa plants that are stronger and faster growing. But first they must make sure the new plants are safe to grow.
First, each new plant is stored at the Control Center for six months to make sure it is healthy. It is then planted in the Center's fields, studied and tested for another two years. Only after scientists are certain that they're disease-free, will the plants be sent to farmers who grow them.
To create new stronger types of cocoa, scientists at the Center are combining the best parts from different cocoa plants. Though the world is facing a serious chocolate shortage, they still believe that there is hope!
71. How does the writer start the passage
The writer starts the passage by ______________________.
72. Why has the cocoa production dropped in the past 10 years
Because there are new plant diseases and __________________ in Ivory Coast and Ghana.
73. What does the underlined word “they” in Paragraph 3 refer to
