One of the most popular street food found in China is no doubt the barbecue. A new programme, called the Story of Chuaner, tells the story of this popular food cooked over hot coals on just about every street corner in cities and towns across the country. Barbecued meat is an important part of people’s nightlife.
Shown on June 20, the programme has had more than 25 million clicks on the video site . To find the most popular barbecue stalls(摊位), the production team travelled to more than 500 locations in 30 cities across the country. Some viewers compare the Story of Chuaner to Midnight Diner, a Japanese TV programme telling stories from late-night informal Japanese bars.
“I’m happy to hear this comparison because Midnight Diner is a good programme and we share the same topic—night food,” the Story of Chuaner’s director Chen Yingjie said. “However, they are quite different.” He said that Midnight Diner focused more on food itself, though there was some conversation while people were eating. However, the night food scene of Chinese people means joy and a more lively atmosphere. People eating these barbecue snacks develop a feeling of connection, which can be a cure for loneliness.
The barbecue, regarded as the most ordinary and common night street snack, is different from home-made food by mothers as that is a symbol of family and kinship. The barbecue is where you go to become connected to people in society. And unlike official business lunches, during which people are rather polite, the barbecue lets people relax with old friends and new friends, leaving a lasting impression of friendship.
The world, as a whole, holds deep-rooted good feelings towards the barbecue, either for the taste or the warmth produced by fire. “What we should do is to present the Chinese barbecue just the way it is. Because with its special ingredients(食材), ways of cooking and more importantly, the special environment and people, the world will recognize it and might fall in love with it just as we do,” said Chen.
24. What do we know about the Story of Chuaner
A. It has become very popular on the Internet.
B. It mainly talks about the most famous Chinese food.
C. It is thought highly of by most of the foreign tourists.
D. It shows the colourful nightlife in large cities of China.
25. In which way was the Story of Chuaner different from Midnight Diner
A. It showed the eating habits. B. It showed more kinds of food.
C. It focused more on people. D. It was less popular than Midnight Diner.
26. What is Paragraph 4 mainly about
A. The importance of the barbecue to family.
B. The role of the barbecue in people’s relationship.
C. The influence of the barbecue on people’s lifestyle.
D. The influence of the barbecue on people’s manners.
27. Why did Chen Yingjie choose the barbecue as the topic of the series
A. To show the feature of Chinese food.
B. To research a special way of cooking.
C. To introduce the history of the barbecue.
D. To help the world understand China.
C
Sixty-six years ago, there was one human-built object in Earth’s orbit. It was Sputnik, the world’s first satellite, launched in October 1957. Try to guess how many human-made objects are circling the planet now. Ready
Your answer is wrong, unless you guessed 100 trillion. That’s a jaw-dropping number. It was provided by an international team of researchers writing in the journal Science. For years, this junk has formed an ever-growing mass near Earth. It’s a danger to spacecraft. The researchers are calling for a global treaty to limit the number of satellites and the amount of rubbish in space.
There are 9,000 active satellites in orbit, the scientists report. That could grow to more than 60,000 by 2030. The rest of that 100 trillion figure includes everything from used-up booster rockets and stray bolts to metal flecks and paint chips. Don’t think a paint chip is harmless. Travelling at 17,500 miles per hour, it can strike a spacecraft hard.The International Space Station is dotted with dents and holes. Astronauts often take shelter in an attached spacecraft to wait out a passing swarm of space debris（残骸）. That way, if the station is severely damaged, they can escape in a hurry.
The mess we’ve made in space is like the mess we’ve made in the oceans. Think of the Great Pacific Garbage Patch. It’s a mass of floating junk twice the size of Texas. We’ve had centuries to make the ocean dirty. But it has taken just decades for us to do the same in space. That’s why the Science authors include experts in satellite technology and in ocean plastic pollution. “As a marine biologist, I never imagined writing a paper on space,” writes Heather Koldewey, who works at the Zoological Society of London. Cleaning up space, she says, has a lot in common “with the challenges of tackling environmental issues in the ocean.”
Coauthor Moriba Jah is an areospace engineering professor at the University of Texas at Austin. “Marine debris and space debris,” he writes, “are both a human-made damage that is unavoidable.”
Why is Sputnik mentioned in paragraph 1
A.To provide background information. B. To introduce the topic.
C. To make a comparison. D.To tell a story.
What’s the main idea of paragraph 3
A.What caused space debris. B. The number of space debris.
C. The seriousness of space pollution. D. What astronauts often do in space.
What does Heather’s words suggest
A.Ocean pollution is very serious. B. Ocean is the same as space.
C.Space pollution is getting worse. D. She is going to write a paper on space.
What can be inferred from the last paragraph
There is the same amount of marine debris and space debris.
B. Humans are to blame for the space pollution.
C. Marine and space pollution are unavoidable.
D. Humans can do nothing to prevent space pollution.
D
We all follow pretty much the same pattern with any skill we learn,from baking a pie to writing a descriptive paragraph.We typically start with a general idea and receive instruction before practicing to reach an acceptable level of performance, and then let it become automatic. However once we reach this point, we often stop improving. People often misunderstand this because they assume that their continued baking or writing is a form of practice and that they are bound to get better at it as long as they keep doing it.
Research has shown that additional years of “practice” may not lead to improvement and can even result in a decline in performance. So what do you need if you are not satisfied with this automated level of performance Purposeful practice turns out to be a successful approach
Purposeful practice has several characteristics that set it apart from what we might call “naive practice," which is essentially just doing something repeatedly,and expecting that the repetition alone will improve one's performance
First of all,purposeful practice has well-defined,specific goals. It is all about putting a bunch of baby steps together to reach a longer-term goal.
Furthermore, purposeful practice involves feedback. You have to know whether you are doing something right and,if not, how you may be going about it the wrong way. Without feedback-either from yourself or from outside observers-you cannot figure out what you need to improve on or how close you are to achieving your goals.
Purposeful practice also requires getting out of one’s comfort zone which means trying to do something that you couldn’t do before.This is perhaps the most important part of purposeful practice Sometimes you may find it easy to accomplish that new thing,and then you keep pushing on. At other times, however, you run into something that stops you cold.The best way to get past any barrier is to come at it from a different direction, which is one reason why it is useful to work with a teacher or coach.
32. What is the author’s attitude towards aimless continued practice
A. Positive. B. Indifferent. C. Negative. D. Unclear.
33. What does the word “naive practice” in paragraph 3 refer to
A. Practice that involves specific goals and feedback.
B. Practice that is only about repetition without improvement goals.
C. Practice that will improve one’s performance by repetition.
D. Practice that involves getting out of one’s comfort zone
34. What does the last paragraph imply
A. Feedback is not necessary for purposeful practice
B. You are expected to overcome the barriers on your own.
C. Purposeful practice involves doing something repeatedly without specific goals.
D. Purposeful practice requires a teacher or coach to help overcome barriers.
35. Which is the best title for the text
A. The Shortcut to Success. B. The Challenges of Learning a New Skill
C. Not All Practice Makes Perfect. D. Automation Makes Satisfaction

The bell rang, announcing the end of the vivid art class Karson loved most. He was delighted that he had created a very satisfying work. So he walked to the back of the classroom to put his work away carefully. There, lying on the carpet in front of the classroom bookcase, was a golden ticket! Karson picked it up. His heat beat faster when he saw that the name line was blank. He couldn’t believe his luck!
The boys and girls in Karson’s class could earn golden tickets by doing well in their study or by being extra helpful or kind. Once a week their teacher drew a ticket out of a box on her desk and let the winner choose a prize.
Today was the golden ticket drawing, and here was another ticket, just for him! Karson looked around. No one else was near the ticket. All his classmates were at their desks, laughing and talking with each other. Miss Evans was engaged in grading the papers collected early in the morning.
Karson decided to write his name on the blank line. Then he could put it into the prize box with the six tickets he’d already earned. With so many chances, one of his tickets would most probably be picked! Then he could choose the pink toy pig for his sister’s birthday, just like he had been hoping.
He smiled and reached for the pencil in his pocket. Suddenly his fingers stopped. There was a strange feeling in his chest, and it wasn’t his heartbeat. “It’s ‘finders keepers’, right ” he wondered. He looked out of the window and tried to figure it out. On the one hand, he did find the ticket, but he hadn’t earned it. Somebody must have lost it. But on the other hand, he did need tis extra ticket for his great plan!
注意：1. 续写词数应为150左右；

Karson stared at the blank name line for a moment. ______________________________________________
