Flower-drum dancing is a traditional Chinese folk performance. It is popular across the county especially in places such as Fengyang in Anhui, Guangshan in Henan, and Haian in Jiangsu.
The Haian flower-drum dance dates back to more than 400 years ago. It became popular in the areas of the Yangtze River and the Huaihe River in the Ming Dynasty (1368-1644). The art form was used to show the peaceful lives of local fisherwomen. It is still popular with local people, known for its lively movements and gentle music. In 2007, the Haian flower-drum dance was included in the list of art forms that make up Jiangsu's provincial intangible (非物质的) cultural heritage.
Yang Peijie, 71, is an inheritor (传承) of the Haian flower-drum dance. He has been performing the dance for more than 50 years. "It has become a part of my life," he said.
In the 1960s, Yang joined an art troupe (艺术团) and started to learn the dance from older artists. At that time, people could only learn it in this way. There were no textbooks. Worrying the art may become lost, Yang spent five years studying the history of the dance and recorded its movements in detail. He visited almost all the local artists and wrote a book about the subject in the 1980s.
According to Yang, the dance movements are easy to learn and understand as they come from everyday life. "For example, there is a movement called fengbailiu (风摆柳),it means you twist (扭动) your body like the wind blowing the willow trees (柳树). ’’
Nowadays, Yang focuses on promoting the dance among all age groups, especially the young. He set up a team to work on this. The team members visit about eight schools each year to teach students. It has been added to break-time exercises in many local schools. "To make it easier for kids to learn, we break down difficult movements into several simple ones," Yang said. They also go to communities and parks to teach older people. "It's my responsibility to pass down the art. I don't want to see it get lost in my lifetime," Yang said.
4. What do we know about the Haian flower-drum dance
A. It was linked to the lives of local fishermen.
B. It is famous for its light movements and music.
C. It was included in the intangible cultural heritage list in 2007.
D. It originated in the areas of the Yangtze River in the Ming Dynasty.
5. What did Yang do to keep the art alive
A He put down what is relevant to it in the 1980s.
B. He consulted the local government about its history.
C. He wrote down the local artists' dance moves in detail.
D. He joined an art troupe to learn the dance from older artists.
6. What does the last paragraph mainly talk about

B. The ways Yang teaches flower-drum dance.
C. Difficulties in promoting flower-drum dance.

China has set new rules limiting the amount of time children can play online games. The rules limit children to just three hours of online game playing a week. That is one hour between 8 p.m. and 9 p.m. on Friday, Saturday and Sunday most weeks.
Li Zhanguo has two children aged 4 and 8. Even though they do not have smart phones, they enjoy playing online games. Like many other parents, Li is happy with new government rules. But experts say it is unclear if such policies can help prevent addiction to online games. Children might just get addicted to social media instead. In the end, experts say, parents should be the ones to set limits and support good practices.
There has been a growing concern in China about gaming addiction among children. Government reports in 2018 found that about one in 10 Chinese children were addicted to the Internet. The new rules are part of an effort to prevent young people from spending too much time on unhealthy entertainment. That includes what officials call the “irrational fan culture”.
Under the new rules, the responsibility for making sure children play only three hours a day as largely on Chinese gaming companies like Net Ease and panies have set up real-name registration systems to prevent young users from going past game time limits. They have used facial recognition technology to check their identities. And they have also set up a program that permits people to report what is against the law. It is unclear what punishments gaming companies may face if they do not carry out the policies. And even if such policies are performed, it is also unclear whether they can prevent online addiction.
A specialist treating internet addiction expects about 20 percent of children will find ways to break the rules by borrowing accounts of their older relatives and find a way around facial recognition. In his opinion, short-video apps such as Douyin and TikTok are also very popular in China. They are not under the same restrictions as games.
8. When can children play games according to the new rules
A Between 10 p.m. and 11 p.m. on Thursday.
B. Between 8 p.m. and 9 p.m on Tuesday.
C. Between 10 p.m.and 11 p.m. on Saturday.
D. Between 8 p.m. and 9 p.m on Friday
9. What will children probably do to battle with the new rules
A. Design an advanced program.
B. Use facial recognition systems.
C. Set up real-name registration systems.
D. Borrow accounts of their older relatives.
10. According to experts, .
A. the new rules can stop children’s addiction to social media
B. parents play a greater part in limiting the time of online games
C. the new rules will help prevent children playing online games
D. parents play a smaller part in limiting the time of online game
11. Which of the following is a suitable title for the text
A. Rules Limiting Short-video Apps.
B. Rules Banning Irrational Fan Culture.
C. Rules Limiting Video Game Time.
D. Rules Breaking Addiction to Social Media.
D
Australian consumers in Adelaide are taking part in a study to help realize the potential for edible insects as a food industry. Consumers’ attitudes are being put to the test at Adelaide Central Market with an offering of roasted crickets and ants mealworm cookies and cricket energy bars.
Researchers want to further probe into consumers’ attitudes towards edible insects and evaluate taste preferences and consumers’ willingness to buy such products. In an earlier online survey of 820 Australian consumers, the researchers found that 20% had tried edible insects. Of those surveyed, 46% said they’d be willing to try a cookie made from insect flour.
“In the earlier survey, consumers said they were most likely to try flavored or roasted insects and least likely to want to try cockroaches or spiders,” Postdoctoral Fellow Dr Anna Crump says. “In this taste test, we’ve chosen products that consumers are most likely to react positively to — apologies to anyone keen to try a cockroach or spider. The samples we’ll be offering consumers provide a good spread of the available insect products in Australia’s marketplace, some of which may be more acceptable than others.”
Dr Crump says the research will help guide the development of an edible insect industry. In Australia, edible insects remain a new agricultural industry. Consumer research is needed to improve consumers’ acceptance of edible insects, so as to realize their potential as an alternate protein source.
Associate Professor Kerry Wilkinson says edible insects could play a role in global food security. “Food security issues such as climate change, increasing global population, scarcity of agricultural land and consumers’ rapidly changing preferences, particularly in developing countries where there is increasing demand for high quality animal protein will be overcome by a shift in food consumption habits. Edible insects could provide one solution. We want to look at ways of overcoming barriers to insect consumption in Australia,” he says.
12. What does the underlined phrase “probe into” in Paragraph 2 probably mean
A. study B. assess C. compose D. dive
13. Why have the researchers chosen those insect products for the taste test
A. They are richer in protein than other insects. B. It is not difficult to flavor or roast them.
C. They are widely acceptable in Australia. D. They are probably to consumers’ taste.
14. Kerry Wilkinson thinks consumers can help remove food security problems by __________.
A. controlling their appetite B. altering their eating habits
C. expanding agricultural land D. Overcoming barriers to insect consumption
15. Which of the following can be the best title for the text
A. Insects make food security no longer a problem
B. Edible insects appear to be gaining in popularity
C. Could edible insects help global food security
D. What counts most when it comes to edible insects

Flower-drum dancing is a traditional Chinese folk performance. It is popular across the county especially in places such as Fengyang in Anhui, Guangshan in Henan, and Haian in Jiangsu.
The Haian flower-drum dance dates back to more than 400 years ago. It became popular in the areas of the Yangtze River and the Huaihe River in the Ming Dynasty (1368-1644). The art form was used to show the peaceful lives of local fisherwomen. It is still popular with local people, known for its lively movements and gentle music. In 2007, the Haian flower-drum dance was included in the list of art forms that make up Jiangsu's provincial intangible (非物质的) cultural heritage.
Yang Peijie, 71, is an inheritor (传承) of the Haian flower-drum dance. He has been performing the dance for more than 50 years. "It has become a part of my life," he said.
In the 1960s, Yang joined an art troupe (艺术团) and started to learn the dance from older artists. At that time, people could only learn it in this way. There were no textbooks. Worrying the art may become lost, Yang spent five years studying the history of the dance and recorded its movements in detail. He visited almost all the local artists and wrote a book about the subject in the 1980s.
According to Yang, the dance movements are easy to learn and understand as they come from everyday life. "For example, there is a movement called fengbailiu (风摆柳),it means you twist (扭动) your body like the wind blowing the willow trees (柳树). ’’
Nowadays, Yang focuses on promoting the dance among all age groups, especially the young. He set up a team to work on this. The team members visit about eight schools each year to teach students. It has been added to break-time exercises in many local schools. "To make it easier for kids to learn, we break down difficult movements into several simple ones," Yang said. They also go to communities and parks to teach older people. "It's my responsibility to pass down the art. I don't want to see it get lost in my lifetime," Yang said.

China has set new rules limiting the amount of time children can play online games. The rules limit children to just three hours of online game playing a week. That is one hour between 8 p.m. and 9 p.m. on Friday, Saturday and Sunday most weeks.
Li Zhanguo has two children aged 4 and 8. Even though they do not have smart phones, they enjoy playing online games. Like many other parents, Li is happy with new government rules. But experts say it is unclear if such policies can help prevent addiction to online games. Children might just get addicted to social media instead. In the end, experts say, parents should be the ones to set limits and support good practices.
There has been a growing concern in China about gaming addiction among children. Government reports in 2018 found that about one in 10 Chinese children were addicted to the Internet. The new rules are part of an effort to prevent young people from spending too much time on unhealthy entertainment. That includes what officials call the “irrational fan culture”.
Under the new rules, the responsibility for making sure children play only three hours a day as largely on Chinese gaming companies like Net Ease and panies have set up real-name registration systems to prevent young users from going past game time limits. They have used facial recognition technology to check their identities. And they have also set up a program that permits people to report what is against the law. It is unclear what punishments gaming companies may face if they do not carry out the policies. And even if such policies are performed, it is also unclear whether they can prevent online addiction.
A specialist treating internet addiction expects about 20 percent of children will find ways to break the rules by borrowing accounts of their older relatives and find a way around facial recognition. In his opinion, short-video apps such as Douyin and TikTok are also very popular in China. They are not under the same restrictions as games.
8. When can children play games according to the new rules
A. Between 10 p.m. and 11 p.m. on Thursday.
B. Between 8 p.m. and 9 p.m on Tuesday.
C. Between 10 p.m.and 11 p.m. on Saturday.
D. Between 8 p.m. and 9 p.m on Friday
9. What will children probably do to battle with the new rules
A. Design an advanced program.
B Use facial recognition systems.
C. Set up real-name registration systems.
D. Borrow accounts of their older relatives.
10. According to experts, .
A. the new rules can stop children’s addiction to social media
B. parents play a greater part in limiting the time of online games
C. the new rules will help prevent children playing online games
D. parents play a smaller part in limiting the time of online game
11. Which of the following is a suitable title for the text
A. Rules Limiting Short-video Apps.
B. Rules Banning Irrational Fan Culture.
C. Rules Limiting Video Game Time.
D. Rules Breaking Addiction to Social Media.
【答案】8. D 9. D 10. B 11. C

Australian consumers in Adelaide are taking part in a study to help realize the potential for edible insects as a food industry. Consumers’ attitudes are being put to the test at Adelaide Central Market with an offering of roasted crickets and ants, mealworm cookies and cricket energy bars.
Researchers want to further probe into consumers’ attitudes towards edible insects and evaluate taste preferences and consumers’ willingness to buy such products. In an earlier online survey of 820 Australian consumers, the researchers found that 20% had tried edible insects. Of those surveyed, 46% said they’d be willing to try a cookie made from insect flour.
“In the earlier survey, consumers said they were most likely to try flavored or roasted insects and least likely to want to try cockroaches or spiders,” Postdoctoral Fellow Dr Anna Crump says. “In this taste test, we’ve chosen products that consumers are most likely to react positively to — apologies to anyone keen to try a cockroach or spider. The samples we’ll be offering consumers provide a good spread of the available insect products in Australia’s marketplace, some of which may be more acceptable than others.”
Dr Crump says the research will help guide the development of an edible insect industry. In Australia, edible insects remain a new agricultural industry. Consumer research is needed to improve consumers’ acceptance of edible insects, so as to realize their potential as an alternate protein source.
Associate Professor Kerry Wilkinson says edible insects could play a role in global food security. “Food security issues such as climate change, increasing global population, scarcity of agricultural land and consumers’ rapidly changing preferences, particularly in developing countries where there is increasing demand for high quality animal protein will be overcome by a shift in food consumption habits. Edible insects could provide one solution. We want to look at ways of overcoming barriers to insect consumption in Australia,” he says.
12. What does the underlined phrase “probe into” in Paragraph 2 probably mean
A. study B. assess C. compose D. dive
13. Why have the researchers chosen those insect products for the taste test
A. They are richer in protein than other insects. B. It is not difficult to flavor or roast them.
C. They are widely acceptable in Australia. D. They are probably to consumers’ taste.
14. Kerry Wilkinson thinks consumers can help remove food security problems by __________.
A. controlling their appetite B. altering their eating habits
C. expanding agricultural land D. Overcoming barriers to insect consumption
15. Which of the following can be the best title for the text
A. Insects make food security no longer a problem
B. Edible insects appear to be gaining in popularity
C. Could edible insects help global food security
D. What counts most when it comes to edible insects
【答案】12. A 13. D 14. B 15. C
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了食用昆虫有助于解决全球的粮食安全问题,文章介绍了相关调查以及人们对此的态度和看法。
【12题详解】
词句猜测题。根据画线词上文“Researchers want to further”以及后文“consumers’ attitudes towards edible insects and evaluate taste preferences and consumers’ willingness to buy such products”可知,要想评估消费者的口味偏好和购买此类产品的意愿,研究人员希望进一步调查消费者对食用昆虫的态度。故划线词意思是“调查、探究”。故选A。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中“In this taste test, we’ve chosen products that consumers are most likely to react positively to — apologies to anyone keen to try a cockroach or spider.(在这个味觉测试中,我们选择了消费者最有可能对之做出积极反应的产品——向那些想尝试蟑螂或蜘蛛的人道歉)”可知,研究人员选择这些昆虫产品进行味觉测试是因为它们可能符合消费者的口味。故选D。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段中“Food security issues such as climate change, increasing global population, scarcity of agricultural land and consumers’ rapidly changing preferences, particularly in developing countries where there is increasing demand for high quality animal protein will be overcome by a shift in food consumption habits.(粮食安全问题,如气候变化、全球人口增长、农业土地稀缺和消费者偏好迅速变化,特别是在对高质量动物蛋白需求日益增加的发展中国家,将通过粮食消费习惯的转变来克服)”可知,只有改变食品消费习惯才能解决这些食物安全问题。故选B。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“Australian consumers in Adelaide are taking part in a study to help realize the potential for edible insects as a food industry. Consumers’ attitudes are being put to the test at Adelaide Central Market with an offering of roasted crickets and ants, mealworm cookies and cricket energy bars.(澳大利亚阿德莱德的消费者正在参加一项研究,以帮助认识食用昆虫作为食品工业的潜力。阿德莱德中央市场正在考验消费者的态度,那里供应烤蟋蟀、蚂蚁、粉虫饼干和蟋蟀能量棒)”结合文章主要说明了食用昆虫有助于解决全球的粮食安全问题,文章介绍了相关调查以及人们对此的态度和看法。由此可知,C选项“可食用昆虫能有助于全球粮食安全吗?”最符合文章标题。故选C。
