AI hair washing is popular in Shenzhen, but it is not very expensive. With just 9.9 yuan, you can experience it.

At that critical moment, 13-year-old Li Jiating, a seventh-grade student, stepped forward bravely. “I'm light---I'll go!” she said. She took a long pipe handed to her by a bystander and crawled carefully toward the ice hole. As she reached out to give the pipe to the boy, the ice broke again. Both she and the boy fell into the freezing water.
But Li Jiating didn't let go. She held tightly onto the pipe until adults on the shore pulled her out. Soon after, firefighters arrived and rescued the boy. Soaked and shivering, Li Jiating quietly rode her bike home without saying a word.
Her father asked about her wet clothes, and she smiled and “lied": “A water truck splashed me!” It wasn't until 1l p.m. that night, when his sister called, that the father learned the truth. “I'm scared and sad, but also proud of her kindness,” he said.
The boy's parents were very grateful. They posted messages to find the “unknown hero” and visited Li Jiating with gifts and money. Though Li Jiating refused the money, they left fruits and a sheep. “This is our sincere thanks," the boy's father said.

Recently, a term called “'La Nina” has been discussed a lot, but there is a common misunderstanding. The fact is, a large area of ocean water in the central and eastern Pacific has become unusually cold. This is what we call a“'La Nina state." It is important to know that this is happening in the ocean, not directly over China.
This cold ocean state can influence China's weather. Looking at past years, when the ocean is in this state winter in China sometimes becomes colder. However, in recent decades, with the overall warmer global climate the chance of a cold winter is about half and half, In autumn, northern parts of China might also see more rain.
It is important to clarify a key point: a “La Nina state” is not the same as a full “La Nina event.” For it to become an official “event," the ocean temperature needs to stay that cold for five months in a row. Experts believe the current situation is less likely to last that long.
Looking ahead to this winter, forecasts suggest most of China will have temperatures close to normal or slightly higher. But the weather will likely change a lot, swinging between sudden cold spells and warmer periods. The country as a whole may get less rain and snow than usual, with the north possibly seeing more and the south seeing less.
Because of this, some areas need to prepare. The northern and northwestern regions could face times of ver ycold weather, strong wind, and heavy snow, which could afiect farming and travel. People in the south and east should watch out for dry conditions and a higher risk of drought or wildfires. For everyone, the frequent and big changes in temperature could be challenging for health, especially for breathing or heart-related issues. It is important to stay informed and take good care of ourselves
26. According to the first paragraph, which of the following is TRUE about the “La Nina state”
A. It means China's weather is getting colder. B. It is a state that is happening over China
C. It describes a hot ocean in the Pacific D. It is related to a cold ocean area in the Pacific
27. What can we learn about La Nina's effect on China's winter from the passage
A. It might cause a colder winter, but the chance is not 100% now
B. It will definitely make every winter in China much colder
C.It has no connection with China's winter temperature at all
D. It makes sure that China's winter is always warmer.
28. Experts think the, current "la Nina state” is less likely to become a full “la Nina event" mainly because_______.
A. the ocean is not cold enough B. it is happening in the wrong place
C.it has already lasted for five months D. it probably won't last for five months
29. According to the weather forecast in the passage, what is the expected situation for this winter in MOST parts of China
A. Very cold and snowy all the time.
B. Temperatures near normal or a bit higher, with big changes
C. Much warmer and very rainy.
D. Dry and sunny with no changes
30.What is the main purpose of the last paragraph
A. To explain the scientific cause of La Ni a.
B. To compare weather in the north and south
C. To give advice on how to prepare for the possible weather effects
D. To tell a story about a past winter

Ann went to bed, wishing that at least this time she would get a gift from Santa Claus. Ann slowly drifted off to sleep. She dreamed of Santa riding in the snow.
The next morning Ann jumped up after hearing her alarm. Out of her expectation, there lay a beautiful packet tied with a red ribbon near her bed. Inside the package was a pretty white dress with fluffy frills and attractive lace!
Ann checked the gift carefully to find out who had given her this beautiful dress. Suddenly a small piece of paper fell out from the dress.
Dear Ann, This dress is gifted to you for being a good girl. Hope you continue to do good things and help your mother. Your Loving friend, Santa Claus
Ann felt that there was something familiar about this note. She looked into the note carefully. Then it struck her. She realized that this handwriting was similar to her mother's.

Dear John,
I am Li Hua, a junior high school student. I am writing to apply for the position of Chinese learning adviser. I am confident that I can help you with your Chinese learning for the following reasons.
First, I have been learning Chinese since I was a child and have a deep understanding of Chinese characters and idioms. I can share effective methods to memorize characters, such as breaking them into parts or creating stories. For example, to remember the character “爱” (love), you can think of it as “friends under a roof,” which symbolizes care and protection.
Second, I am familiar with Chinese culture and can help you understand cultural differences. For example, many idioms come from historical stories, and knowing the background can make them easier to remember.
If you have trouble with Chinese characters, I suggest practicing writing them daily and using flashcards. For idioms, try to use them in sentences and learn their stories. I believe I can be a helpful adviser for you. I look forward to your reply.
Best wishes,
Li Hua
