A British friend told me he couldn't understand why Chinese people love eating sunflower seeds (嗑瓜
子) as a snack so much. "I've met a lot of older Chinese and many have a crack in their front teeth; I believe
that's from cracking the seeds," he said.
I had never noticed the habit, but once he mentioned it, I suddenly became more aware. I realized
that whenever I'm watching TV or typing a report, I always start mindlessly cracking sunflower seeds. My
friend doesn't like sunflower seeds, and, to him, it seems unnecessary to work so much just to get one small
seed.
When we were young, the whole family would usually get together for Chinese New Year. Then,
we all lived close to one another, usually in a small city, and sometimes even neighbors would go door-to-
door on Chinese New Year's Eve to check out what every household was making.
I remember my parents would be in the kitchen cooking. Out in the living room, a large table would
already be laid out, complete with fancy tablecloth, ready-made dumpling fillings, and dishes full of candy,
fruits and sunflower seeds. Some of the dishes were to be offered to our ancestors later, while others were for
neighbors and children to eat before the evening feast. I must have learned how to crack sunflower seeds back
then.
I don't think it's right to criticize one's choice in food or eating habits, no matter how strange they may
seem.It's not only in China. When I went abroad, I found people had all sorts of strange habits when it came
to food. In Denmark, they put salted red fish on bread and eat it for dinner, no matter how much it ruins your
breath. They think it's a delicacy (美味佳肴), and it's connected to their certain culture. I think it's a wonderful
tradition.
24.What did the writer become aware of?
A. She had ever typed a report about seeds.
B. She had various snacks while watching TV.
C. She damaged her teeth by eating sunflower seeds.
D. She had a habit of cracking sunflower seeds.
25.What does the writer prove by mentioning Chinese New Year?
A. The traditions of celebrating it disappear.
B. Eating sunflower seeds is related to it.
C. The families get together for it.
D. Children can eat delicious food on that day.
26.The writer's attitude to Denmark's way of eating bread is ______ .
A. neutral B. critical C. acceptable D. doubtful
27.What lesson can we learn from the story?
A. One kind of food doesn't necessarily suit everyone.
B. It is good to form healthy eating habits.
C. Eating habits come from a certain culture.
D. Changing your eating habits will change your life.
C
Fashion inspired by traditional Chinese culture is experiencing revived global interest, with designers and
their collections increasingly impressing fashion show audiences. At China-France Fashion Week, held at the
China Cultural Center in Paris, designers showed 30 outfits (服装), each presenting the cultural heritage of
Quanzhou, a coastal city in East China’s Fujian Province, which became a UNESCO World Heritage Site in
2021.
"The event promoted a dialogue between tradition and modernity, Eastern and Western aesthetics (美
学)," says designer Meng Yueming. Borrowing elements (元素) of the city’s heritage, including zanhua, the
traditional dress of Hui’an women, local tea culture, and architecture, Meng mixed traditional and modern
elements into his designs.
Describing the show as "fantastic", Isabelle Lawson, executive director of the French International Art
Salon, says it was a "brilliant" idea for the designers to transform Quanzhou’s landmarks and architecture into
the designs.
The week was designed to deepen China-France cultural exchange and strengthen cooperation in the
cultural and creative industries between China and France.
"Before this show, my understanding of traditional culture was superficial, but when I dug deeper, I found
a treasure in front of me to explore," Meng says, adding that he feels that using Chinese elements is important
for native designers and companies to go global.
Meng’s experience highlights how an increasing number of designers are drawing on their heritage and
cultural traditions while celebrating their own cultural identity. For Meng, it is a good time for Chinese
designers to find their voices on the global stage, and to show how rich and graceful Chinese-style can be
today.
28.What was special about the 30 outfits?A. They brought about a change in fashion.
B. They were inspired by modern western fashion.
C. They included elements of Chinese culture in the design.
D. They were created by Chinese and French designers together.
29.What was the aim of the Fashion Week?
A. To promote cross -cultural communication.
B. To strengthen a sense of cultural identity.
C. To show designers’ wonderful collections.
D. To introduce Chinese traditional dress to the world.
30.Which is closest in meaning to "superficial" in paragraph 5?
A. Narrow. B. Unique. C. Detailed. D. Balanced.
31.Which of the following is the best title for the passage?
A. Chinese Designers: A Voice in Fashion
B. Celebrating Cultural Diversity Through Fashion Show
C. Chinese Elements Shine on the Global Fashion Stage
D. Fashion Changes: From Traditional to Modern Elements
D
Dreams can be familiar and strange, fantastical or boring, but some dreams might be connected to the
mental processes that help us learn. In a recent study, scientists found a connection between nap-time dreams
and better memory in people who were learning a new skill.
In the study, 99 college students between the ages of 18 and 30 each spent an hour on a computer, trying
to get through a virtual maze(迷宫). The maze was a different place each time they tired—making it even
more difficult. They were also told to find a particular picture of a tree and remember where it was.
For the first 90 minutes of a five-hour break, half of the participants stayed awake and a half were told to
take a short nap. Participants who stayed awake were asked to describe their thoughts. Participants who took
a nap were asked about their dreams after sleeping—and they were awakened within a minute of sleeping to
describe their dreams. Stickgold, a neuroscientist(神经科学家), wanted to know what people were
dreaming about when their eyes werenˈt moving during sleep.
Four of the 50 people who slept said their dreams were connected to the maze. Some dreamed about the
music that had been playing when they were working. Others said they dreamed about seeing people in the
maze. When these four people tried the computer maze again, they were able to find the tree faster than before
their naps.
Stickgold suggests the dream itself doesnˈt help a person learn—itˈs the other way around. He suspects
that the dream was caused by the brain processes associated with learning.
All four of the people who dreamed about the task had done poorly the first time, which makes Stickgold
wonder if the dreams show up when a person finds a new task particularly difficult. People who had other
dreams, or people who didnˈt take a nap, didnˈt show the same improvement.
32.After having a short nap, participants of the experiment were asked to _______.
A. stay in a different place in the maze
B. try to remember something about their dreams
C. design a virtual maze which is difficult to get through
D. get through a virtual maze on a computer from the same place
33.What can we learn from the text?
A. Participants who took a nap were required to express their thoughts.
B. Some dreams may encourage people to invent something new.C. Participants who dreamed about films could finish the task more easily.
D. Participants who dreams about the maze could find the tree faster.
34.According to Stickgold, __________.
A. every person may dream about what they learnt
B. once peopleˈs eyes stop moving, they are sure to dream about something
C. peopleˈs brain processes may still be connected with their learning in their dreams
D. no matter how fantastical or boring, dreams are connected with peopleˈs life
35.What is the best title for this text?
A. Dreams Are Strange B. Not All Dreams Are True
C. Dreaming Makes Better Memory D. Stickgold, a Dream Expert

阅读下面的材料,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。
The Wilson family was enjoying a weekend hike in a national forest. The path was clear, and the sun was
warm. Mr. and Mrs. Wilson walked ahead, while their two children, thirteen-year-old Sarah and ten-year-old
Leo, followed behind. Leo, full of energy, was fascinated by everything around him. He kept pointing at
squirrels and unusual insects, his laughter echoing through the trees.
“Stay close, kids. The forest is vast, and it’s easy to get lost.” Mr. Wilson reminded them as they reached
a fork (岔口) in the path. “If anyone gets separated, don’t panic. Stay where you are and act positively.” Mr.
Wilson emphasized. Leo nodded, but his attention was soon caught by a large, colorful butterfly that fluttered
near the bushes.
Without a second thought, Leo stepped off the main path to get a closer look. The butterfly led him deeper
into the woods, where the trees grew thicker and the sunlight faded. He walked further and further, his eyes
fixed on the dancing insect. When Leo finally looked up, the butterfly was gone, and he realized that he could
no longer see his family or hear their voices. He called out, “Mom? Dad? Sarah!” but there was no answer.
The forest, once so friendly, now felt vast and silent. The only sounds were the whisper of the wind and the
call of a distant bird.
Meanwhile, Sarah noticed her brother was missing. “Mom, Dad, where’s Leo?” she asked, a note of worry
in her voice. The family immediately stopped. “Leo!” they called out, their voices growing more and more
anxious with each shout. Above the trees, dark clouds began to gather, blocking out the sun. The air grew
cooler, and the wind started to blow more strongly, rustling the leaves loudly.
What had begun as a perfect family day was now a race against time to find Leo before the weather turned
worse and the forest was drowned into the deep shadows of evening.
注意:续写的词数应为150个左右。
Paragraph 1:
Knowing he was lost, Leo remembered his father’s advice about staying calm._____________________

Paragraph 2:
Just as Leo was starting to lose hope, he heard a familiar voice calling his
name.___________________
