W: Good evening, everyone. In tonight’s program, let’s get to know an inspiring blind Chinese man named Zhang Hong. He has climbed onto the tallest peak in the world from the Nepal side. He became the first blind man in Asia and the third in the world to climb Mount Qomolangma. (18)The man completed the 8,849 meter-high Himalayan feat on May 24, 2021 along with three high altitude guides. And then he returned to the base camp three days later. Zhang was born in southwestern Chinese city of Chongqing. He lost his sight at the age of 21 due to some kind of disease. (19)He was inspired by Erik Weihenmayer, a blind American mountaineer who climbed onto the tallest peak of Qomolangma in 2001. Zhang began training under the guidance of a mountain guide friend. He was still very scared while climbing. Because he couldn’t see where he was walking, and he couldn’t find his center of gravity, so sometimes he could fall. Zhang said, “I kept thinking even though it was hard, I had to face those difficulties and dangers. This is the meaning of climbing. No matter if you’re disabled or normal, whether you have lost your eyesight or you have no legs or hands, it doesn’t matter as long as you have a strong mind. You can always complete a thing that other people say you can’t.”

第一节
Dear Tanya,
I am delighted to receive your Email telling me that you are going to pay a visit to my hometown Jingdezhen in the upcoming Spring Festival. The following are my suggestions for your two-day trip.
On the first day, after enjoying the local food I strongly recommend the Imperial Kiln Museum where archaeologists have been excavating a huge amount of porcelain relics since 1982. In the afternoon, it will be a great delight to visit the ancient kiln porcelain factory. In order to attract tourists, bands are often arranged there to play porcelain musical instruments. You can finish the day by enjoying a wonderful light show on the biggest porcelain bowl in the world in Changnanli. As for the following day, it’s definitely a wise choice for us to travel around Yaoli in Fuliang County, where you will be undoubtedly thrilled by its breathtaking natural beauty. In the evening, if time permits, we can go to the Internet-famous ceramic art avenue, Taoxichuan, to experience the rich artistic atmosphere and buy some exquisite ceramic artworks.
I wish you an enjoyable and worthwhile journey.
Yours sincerely,
Li Hua

If you can't trust an expert to make a good prediction, who can you trust
Try a crowd. Under the right conditions, crowds can make better predictions than the individuals in them--a crowd can even beat a single expert.
More than a hundred years ago, the scientist Francis Galton visited an English country Faithere, he came across a contest to guess the weight of an ox. Interested in mathematics, Galton gathered 800 guesses and dealt with the numbers. To his surprise, Galton found that the crowd's guess(the average)was just 1 pound different from the ox's real weight. Did Galton happen to collect a lot lucky guesses
David Kestenbaumand Jacob Goldstein, a pair of reporters, wanted to find out. One steamy summer day in 2015, they visited the “Burlington County Farm Fair” in New Jersey. There, Penelope, a black and white cow, shining with good health, greeted them. She was as tall as Goldstein's shoulder. The reporters led the cow onto a large, flat truck scale(秤). A curious crowd had gathered, but Kestenbaum and Goldstein carefully guarded the scale's digital display (数字显示), It flashed 1, 355 pounds.
Later, far from the sweet smell of warm hay, the reporters uploaded a photo of Penelope to the Planet Money website. They invited people to guess her weight, and more than 17, 000 people did. The crowd's guess was 1, 287 pounds. That was just 5 percent less than Penelope's true weight. Impressive!
Among the crowd, some called themselves cow experts, while others probably couldn't tell a cot from an ox. When Goldstein and Kestenbaum calculated the guesses only from the experts, the result wasn't any better. In fact, it was even worse:83 pounds off for the experts compared to 68 pounds for the whole crowd.
Crowds aren't just lucky. Lots of people with different bits of information and ideas can make crowds collectively smart. A crowd will always make a prediction at least as good as the typical person in it, Often a crowd will do better. If people in a crowd have reasonably good information, they can make excellent predictions. Some businesses, financial markets, and Internet searches rely on this phenomenon(现象).
If you want to predict who's going to win the big game on Saturday or when school buses will fly, ask a crowd of reasonably knowledgeable people instead of a single expert. Just make sure the crowd has people who know different things and have different ways of thinking. Without a diverse crowd, predictions can go badly.
28. Why is the example of Francis Galton mentioned in the passage
A. To explain why crowds can't make an accurate prediction.
B. To state Francis Galton happened to collect many lucky guesses.
C. To show how to predict an ox's weight.
D. To prove crowds can make a better prediction.
29. How did the reporters prove the advantage of prediction made by crowds over experts
A. By conducting a series of research. B. By explaining the theories involved.
C. By making comparisons. D. By doing experiments.
30. Who may give a better prediction according to the passage
A. An expert who has a different way of thinking from others.
B. A crowd of people with different backgrounds and knowledge.
C. A single expert who is knowledgeable.
D. A crowd of experts who have the same way of thinking.
31. What can we learn from this passage
A. Two heads are better than one.
B. You never know what you can do till you try.
C. Practice is the sole criterion for testing truth.
D. Seek the truth from facts
D
Although-London's red telephone boxes may not get as much use these days, they are one of the city's most recognizable features-but some could soon have a new purpose.
Recently, a developer wants to turn two run-down telephone boxes on Coventry Street in London's West End into vending machines(自动售货机)that will operate 24/7. These telephone boxes will be filled with snacks for sale.
Application for this interesting redevelopment has been submitted by Nuriyeh Popalzi as part of the Young Entrepreneur Support Scheme (VESS), with plans currently in the consulting stage. If successful, this would mean the boxes on Coventry Street, which have sadly been subject to disrepair, get a fresh red lick(一点)of paint and have their doors removed to create the machines.
In her application, Nuriyeh Popalzi said, “Both telephone boxes are out of service and kept in poor condition of maintenance, creating an unpleasant site in one of the most historic and touristic parts of London, "she added. “These red telephone boxes are considered a key part of London not only for the Londoners but also for the tourists from all over the world. For decades, these red telephone boxes have been a symbol of London and in fact a symbol for the whole of Great Britain. "
Popalzi believes the transformed boxes will have a positive effect on the community, much like other telephone boxes that have been turned into libraries. All profits made by the machines will go to charity, meaning happiness can be spread in multiple ways.
Before long some Londoners' next afternoon pick-me-up could come from one of London's iconic red boxes. However, there should be a speed dial(快速拨号)option-we know Londoners are always in a rush, after all.
32. What may be the future use of the two red telephone boxes
A. To sell snacks. B. To raise money.
C. To store snacks. D. To serve as libraries.
33. What can we infer from paragraph 3
A. The two telephone boxes will be taken down soon.
B. The two telephone boxes' color will be changed.
C. Popalzi's idea has drawn many Londoners' attention.
D. Popalzi's idea hasn't been put into effect currently.
34. How will the two transformed boxes have a positive effect
A. They will offer a great discount. B. They will make a difference to charity.
C. They will provide the delivery service. D. They will help attract more tourists.
35. Where does the text probably come from
A.A book review. B. A science report. C.A newspaper. D.A travel brochure.
