Spring Festival Garden Fairs: A Trio of Traditions
Across China, Spring Festival garden fairs showcase a fascinating combination of ancient customs and modern innovation, each with its own regional flavor and immense popularity.
Beijing Ditan Fair
In Beijing, the fair at Ditan Park remains a beloved pilgrimage for locals. Amidst the aroma of candied hawthorns, elderly calligraphers still write couplets by hand. This year, a tech-savvy twist appeared: visitors could scan QR codes on blank scrolls, and a robotic arm would perfectly clone a master calligrapher’s strokes, allowing anyone to “write” their own couplets. The fair’s enduring popularity was evident in the long, patient queues.
Shenzhen Pingshan Cultural Temple Fair
In tech-forward Shenzhen, the fair was a spectacle of the future. Traditional paper lanterns were replaced by a dazzling display of programmable drones and immersive light projections onto modern skyscrapers. Instead of physical lion dances, augmented reality filters on a city app let users “dance” with a virtual lion in their own living rooms, especially for young people. Its popularity exploded online, with millions watching the live-streamed light show, bridging the gap for those who couldn’t attend.
Wuhou Shrine Chengdu Temple Fair
In Chengdu, the fair celebrated its heritage with a global audience. Visitors could still enjoy traditional Sichuan opera face-changing. Yet, these performances were simultaneously live-streamed in multiple languages by hosts using smart translation earpieces. The fair’s popularity has become international, with interactive online sessions where global viewers can “send” virtual red envelopes to performers.
From the ancient lanes of Beijing to the digital frontiers of Shenzhen and the global stage of Chengdu, the garden fair evolves, proving tradition and technology can flourish together.
21．What was new at the Beijing Ditan Fair this year
A．A light show for home viewers. B．A robotic arm writing couplets.
C．Digital couplets on smartphones. D．Calligraphy lessons from the elderly.
22．What did fairs in Shenzhen and Chengdu have in common
A．They targeted young visitors. B．They displayed traditional lanterns.
C．They reached online audiences digitally. D．They featured operas in multiple languages.
23．Which category does this text fit into best
A．Culture. B．Art. C．Travel. D．Health.
Recently, the list for the 2026 Sloan Research Fellowships was announced in the United States. Chinese young scientist Cao Yuan has been awarded this well-known honor.
Cao Yuan, born in 1996 in Chengdu, Sichuan Province, graduated from University of Science and Technology of China in 2014. In 2018, Cao, 22, was named as the most influential scientist of the year by Nature magazine, for a major discovery of graphene superconductivity angle (石墨烯超导角度).
Nature on March 5 published two major papers by Cao. It was the first time that Nature released two continuous articles with the same first author. Cao became the youngest Chinese who published an article in Nature. The discovery was a breakthrough in the area of condensed matter physics and received worldwide attention.
Every year, Nature releases an issue highlighting the “ten people who mattered.” The cover is always a large number ten. Its design and pattern depend on the major scientific advances of the year. The year of 2018, the cover referred to Cao’s contributions.
Cao’s passion for science emerged early: as a child, he loved buying electronic components to study circuits. His talent and diligence impressed his mentors, including Professor Zeng Changgan, who recalled that as an undergraduate Cao wrote a PRB theory article. He thought Cao was awesome and active. Beyond brilliance, Cao exemplifies perseverance. According to Nature, “despite a disappointing PhD start that made six months’ work fruitless due to experimental accidents, he simply rolled up his sleeves and continued working.”
Humble about his achievements, Cao once said, “I just skipped some boring stuff in middle school.” He advises, “Those who walk every step conscientiously will have a bright future.” This mixture of modesty and perseverance defines his inspiring journey.
24．What honor did Cao Yuan receive in 2018
A．The most influential author. B．The Sloan Research Fellowship.
C．The title of the youngest professor. D．One of Nature’s 10 people who mattered.

A quiet AI revolution is unfolding in China’s countryside. In provinces like Jilin, Yunnan and Hubei, farmers are turning to AI to save their crops from flooding and disease. China is showing the world a different roadmap of AI’s path forward.
Free AI services in China fuel mass adoption. DeepSeek’s integration into WeChat caused a traffic surge, absorbed by Tencent’s Yuanbao, whose DAU (Daily Active Users) jumped 20 times in two months. AI now rapidly integrates into daily life, reaching vast rural populations at scale.
By making AI tools free and accessible through platforms like WeChat, China has opened the floodgates to grassroots adoption. Chinese companies have prioritized scale. And that scale is surprising: Nearly 300 million farmers, representing 20% of the national population, are potential AI users.
In one Hubei village, weeks of heavy rain threatened to destroy rice fields. Consequently, farmers turned to Yuanbao. The chatbot recommended building embankments and switching to high-ridge planting — the advice arrives instantly, tailored to specific problems and images uploaded by farmers with little formal education.
AI is inserted into everyday life in China. For Chinese farmers, the benefits are real and immediate. For many, AI is no longer a futuristic idea but a daily tool. While China’s rural AI surge is impressive, it faces challenges of its own. AI researchers found that most farmers didn’t know how to pose useful questions to AI chatbots unless prompted by local officials. Educational gaps remain a barrier: Even when farmers receive answers, they might not understand the technical terms involved. Without a closed loop of comprehension and action, the benefits of AI can’t be fully realized.
Researchers also stress that making AI useful for the farmers as well as elders will require more than a stylish UX and bigger models. It urgently demands simplified responses, voice interfaces and solutions tailored to real-world conditions.
28．What resulted from DeepSeek’s integration into WeChat
A．Free AI services in China became available.
B．Tencent’s Yuanbao saw a rapid increase in users.
C．Farmers in Hubei doubled their rice production.
D．The number of WeChat users dropped significantly.
29．What do the underlined words “opened the floodgates to” mean in paragraph 3
A．Blocked the way of. B．Tested the limits of.
C．Increased the cost of. D．Allowed widespread entry of.
30．What will the researchers most probably do next
A．Develop larger AI models. B．Expand AI access to more cities.
C．Provide simplified practical instructions. D．Teach farmers to understand technical terms.
31．What is the main idea of the passage
A．AI companies profit greatly from rural users.
B．AI has solved all farming problems in China.
C．Farmers prefer traditional methods to AI technology.
D．China’s rural AI holds promise but faces challenges.
Dreschel is going for his daily morning walk around Thalangama Wetland, in Sri Lanka’s capital Colombo. The sun casts a warm glow over flowering pink water lilies (睡莲) as a farmer washes down his water buffalo. A kingfisher hovers (盘旋) nearby.
But this hasn’t always been the case. About 15 years ago, Thalangama’s wetlands were polluted and filled with rubbish. Dreschel, the country manager at the International Water Management Institute (IWMI) in Colombo, recalled a decade ago he began cleaning the lake alone. Surprisingly, passersby stopped to help. Inspired the community formed the Thalangama Wetland Watch.
Colombo, a Ramsar wetland city, located in a river basin and naturally trending to floods, relies on its wetlands as natural flood barriers, absorbing 40% of floodwaters. They also sink carbon, purify air, and control temperatures. Historically central to local life, they now help reduce climate change, pollution, and stress for residents in high-rise buildings.
It is said that after significant flooding events the government realized wetlands are a significant flood control mechanism and began to act, launching a revival strategy to restore these critical ecosystems. The metro Colombo wetland management strategy was introduced in 2016, which aims to include wetlands in urban planning, prevent further wetland loss, restore the ecosystems and involve the local community in their conservation. Following that, wetlands were included into urban infrastructure by constructing cycling tracks, jogging paths and recreational areas around them. Invasive species were almost cleaned and new soil and wetland plants were introduced to attract birds and other animals.
Green infrastructure projects have reconnected people with Colombo’s munities like Wetland Watch now maintain them, boosting property values. The Ramsar status temporarily stopped wetland destruction.
But an expert warns that coordinated efforts are essential to resist growing flood risks. He emphasizes that public education on wetlands is crucial for urban resilience. Another notes a fundamental urgency to protect these ecosystems. “If we lose our wetlands, Colombo will be unlivable.”
32．What is the author’s purpose in mentioning Dreschel’s morning walk
A．To recommend a way to protect wetlands.
B．To show Dreschel’s healthy and peaceful life.
C．To present a scene full of life around The wetland.
D．To suggest benefits of morning walks in Sri Lanka.
33．What is the function of the wetland
A．Releasing the impact of floods. B．Providing residential areas for people.
C．Preventing climate change and pollution. D．Improving air quality by removing pollutants.
34．What can be inferred about the government’s restoration measures
A．They removed all invasive species. B．They integrated wetlands into urban life.
C．They prioritized economy over ecology. D．They relocated communities over wetlands.
35．Which is the most suitable title for the text
A．How a Walk Saved a Wetland B．Colombo: A City Built on Wetlands
C．The Future of Sri Lanka’s Waterways D．Wetlands: From Wasteland to Lifeline
Ever feel like you just put something down and can’t remember where Or that your reactions aren’t quite as sharp as they used to be Don’t worry — you’re not necessarily getting older; your brain might just be telling you it’s time to get moving. 36
When we think of exercise, running or walking usually comes to mind. But the real game-changer for keeping your brain young is resistance training, a strength training. 37 A recent study found that sticking with resistance training for a year could make your brain up to 2-3 years younger.
Here are five simple resistance exercises you can do at home: Wall sit, Calf raise, Wall push-up，Glute bridge, Dumbbell shoulder press (water bottles work great, too!) 38
To get the most out of your resistance training, keep these four tips in mind.
Breathe naturally — Avoid holding your breath during exercise. 39 It also ensures your muscles receive enough oxygen when you need them most.
Find the right intensity — You should feel tired but able to recover by the next day. Too easy training won’t bring results; too much may cause injury.
Stay consistent — Aim for 2-3 sessions per week to let your muscles recover and rebuild gradually. 40
Listen to your body — Skip workouts when sick. If you feel chest pain, dizziness, or unusual joint pain during exercise, stop immediately and seek help if needed.
A．It’s also important to consult your coach.
B．In fact, even simple activities can improve your memory.
C．It involves working your muscles against a weight or force.
D．This helps prevent dizziness and keeps your blood pressure stable.
E．But did you know that the type of exercise you choose matters greatly
F．The real benefits come from long-term habits, not short bursts of effort.
G．These exercises require no special equipment and can be done anytime.

六、书面表达
67．阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Grandpa Wang had been a calligraphy master in a small town for over sixty years. Every morning, he would set up his brush, ink, and rice paper on the old wooden table by the window, practicing characters stroke by stroke with steady hands. His grandson, Zhiyuan, now sixteen, had watched this routine countless times since childhood but had never shown interest in learning. “Too slow, too old-fashioned,” he would tell his friends, scrolling through his phone while Grandpa wrote.
One Saturday afternoon, Zhiyuan burst through the door, his face flushed with frustration. He threw his backpack on the floor and sank into the sofa. Grandpa Wang continued writing, his brush moving gracefully across the paper. After a long silence, he asked gently, “School not going well ”
Zhiyuan sighed heavily. “We have this school culture festival next month. Each class needs to present something about traditional Chinese culture. My classmates recommended me to organize our class performance because I’m ‘the Chinese kid’. But I don’t know anything! I can’t even write proper characters. Everyone expects me to be some kind of expert just because my grandparents are from China.”
Grandpa Wang put down his brush and looked at his grandson. For a moment, the room was silent except for the soft ticking of the old clock on the wall. Then Zhiyuan continued, his voice cracking, “I told them my grandpa is a calligraphy master. I don’t know why I said that. Maybe I wanted to sound impressive. Now they want me to do a calligraphy demonstration during the festival. Me! I can’t even hold a brush properly.”
Tears welled up in Zhiyuan’s eyes. He had always taken pride in being modern, fitting in with his friends, distancing himself from these “old traditions.” Now, for the first time, he felt ashamed — not of his heritage, but of his ignorance of it.
注意：
（1）续写词数应为150左右；
（2）请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Noticing Zhiyuan, his grandpa asked him to sit at the table.

66．Dear Ben,
Your worry is completely understandable. It’s true that clubs take time, but they’re not necessarily a waste. The real issue might be how we balance things rather than whether we participate at all.
I suggest you prioritize your studies by making a weekly schedule. Reserve club time only after finishing homework, treating it as a well-deserved reward. Also, pick clubs that truly interest and benefit you so that they can help you relax, develop new skills, and even make studying less stressful afterward.
A balanced life leads to better learning and personal growth. Hope this helps!
Agony Aunt

Noticing Zhiyuan, his grandpa asked him to sit at the table. “It’s never too late to learn”, said Grandpa while he placed the brush in his grandson’s trembling hand. “Hold it like this — firm but gentle,” he demonstrated. For hours, they sat together, the old man’s steady hand guiding the young one’s. Character after character, Zhiyuan felt something shift inside him. The strange strokes began to make sense. When he finally wrote “和” (harmony) on his own, Grandpa’s eyes sparkled with pride. Night after night, they practiced together. He stopped seeing calligraphy as old-fashioned and began feeling its quiet beauty, even kind of looking forward to the big day.
Finally came the culture festival day. Surrounded by curious schoolmates, Zhiyuan’s heart raced. But as he touched the brush, calm washed over him. Stroke by stroke, he wrote — characters flowing like water. Gasps turned into murmurs of admiration, then into applause. Looking up, he spotted Grandpa standing at the back, nodding with pride in his eyes. With a smile, deep faith welled up in Zhiyuan’s heart. This wasn’t just writing. It was a legacy passed down through generations. He was proud to carry it forward.
