A
The traditional Chinese solar calendar divides the year into 24 solar terms. Start of Spring (立春), the first
solar term of the year, lifts the curtain of spring. After that everything turns green and is full of vigor. People
clearly see that the daytime is becoming longer and the weather is becoming warmer. Here are four things you
should know about Start of Spring.
Erecting the egg
In China, it is said that the egg can be set upright on the first day of Start of Spring, Spring Equinox Day (春分)
and Autumn Equinox Day. It is believed that if someone can make the egg stand on the first day of Start of Spring,
he will have good luck in the future. According to astronomers and physicists, the trick is to set the egg’s center of
gravity to the lowest part of the egg. In this way, the trick is to hold the egg until the yolk (蛋黄) sinks as much as
possible. For this, people should choose an egg about 4 or 5 days old, whose yolk is inclined (倾向于) to sink down.
Wearing fabric swallows
Wearing fabric swallows is a custom in some regions in Shaanxi. Every Start of Spring people like to wear a
swallow made of colorful silk on their chests. The custom originated during the Tang Dynasty. The swallow is a
harbinger (前兆) of spring and a symbol of prosperity and happiness.
Making a spring ox
This custom in Shaanxi is practiced right before Start of Spring. The tradition can be traced back to the Zhou
Dynasty and became popular during the Tang Dynasty. The local government hires some skilled artisans and
gathers them to build the frame of an ox out of bamboo strips and the legs with wood. Then they paste some paper
and paint onto it—and soon, the image of an ox is complete. It is said that if more red and yellow paper is used,
then there will be a good harvest that year; if black paper is pasted, then the year will be poor. When the paper ox is
ready, there is a ritual to paint the eyes. After that, people will set up an altar (祭坛) for it and worship it.
Posting spring calligraphy and paintings
The custom of posting calligraphy and paintings on one’s door in the spring first appeared during the Tang
第 3页/共 12页Dynasty. People would do so to welcome spring and pray for good luck on the first day of Start of Spring.
1. Which factor is key to successfully erecting an egg according to scientists?
A. The specific solar term date. B. The age of the egg selected.
C. The surrounding temperature. D. The time spent on the experiment.
2. What does the color of paper used in making a spring ox primarily reflect?
A. People’s belief in gods. B. People’s love of beauty.
C. People’s harvest expectations. D. People’s historical knowledge.
3. Which custom originates during the same dynasty as posting spring artwork?
A. Erecting the egg. B. Making a spring ox.
C. Wearing fabric swallows. D. Setting up an altar.
B
By the time Nalin Kamat was 13, the Toronto teen had been well on his way to becoming a working artist. He
had already had his first show at a local art center, showcasing his series titled “Dispositions”, which illustrated his
own growth during adolescence.
Yet he wanted more — specifically to start showing his work in a juried exhibition, an exhibition with judges,
where a group of art experts would evaluate and select pieces in a competitive review process. That’s when he hit
an obstacle, discovering in the very last line of a multi-page application that the minimum age for submission was
18.
However, being refused became a motivation for creation. “I thought it’d be really cool if I could provide the
opportunity to more young artists,” says Nalin, now 15. With the support of his parents, in January 2023, Nalin
rented a storefront and founded Little EGG Gallery, which is now profitable enough to make ends meet by charging
a small hanging fee for any displayed work. In turn, Little EGG helps promote young talent by showcasing their
work.
Not long after opening, David Griffin, a professor and artist of Ontario College of Art and Design University,
stepped into the gallery and met Nalin. Griffin considered him as someone special: “a strong young artist with a
really excellent idea — creating a space for showing the natural genius of young people. It was a void (空白) in
the art world.” There Nalin asked Griffin to help judge an upcoming competition. The first show with judges was
last spring, and five-year-old Jack Gamble won for his abstract painting titled “Pokemon”.
As Nalin is busy with school, life and his own art, Little EGG is mostly open by appointment only, but he’s
still committed to growing it with seasonal and themed shows scheduled a few times a year.
第 4页/共 12页4. What do we know about Nalin?
A He drew teenagers’ growth in his work.
B. He became a working artist when aged 13.
C. He was disqualified for a juried exhibition.
D. He showed his series at the capital art center.
5. Why did Nalin decide to set up Little EGG Gallery?
A. To promote artists by showcasing their works.
B. To form the association between different galleries.
C. To expand his own business through themed shows.
D. To show young artists’ talent by offering them a stage.
6. Which of the following can best describe Nalin’s idea of opening the gallery?
A. Unpromising. B. Short-lived.
C. Thought-provoking. D. Groundbreaking.
7. What kind of person is Nalin according to the text?
A. Helpful and cautious.
B. Devoted and creative.
C. Humorous and intelligent.
D. Knowledgeable and ambitious.
C
More than 20,000 ready-to-cook fotiaoqiang have been exported to the United States and Canada, marking the
first international shipment for Juchunyuan, a time-honored Chinese food brand.
Fotiaoqiang, also known as “Buddha Jumps over the Wall”, gets its name from a legend that its irresistible
scent could tempt (诱惑 ) even a vegetarian Buddha to leap over a wall for a taste. This luxurious dish mixes
expensive ingredients like abalone (鲍鱼), chicken, and mushrooms, which are slow-cooked for hours or even days
to blend rich flavors. Dating back to the Qing Dynasty, it is often served at special events, symbolizing wealth and
hospitality. The original recipe was created at Juchunyuan restaurant in Fuzhou, the capital city of Fujian.
“For many overseas Chinese, fotiaoqiang is a must at Spring Festival feasts,” said Wang Yue, deputy general
manager of Fuzhou Juchunyuan Group. Now, they are processed following the standards for ready-to-cook foods
and then, they are distributed via a cold chain system. This keeps the traditional flavor preserved. It was by no
means easy to make and export Chinese delicacies like fotiaoqiang in large quantities due to the complicated
第 5页/共 12页traditional cooking method. Fortunately, the development of the ready-to-cook food business and related techniques
has presented new opportunities for Chinese catering companies to break into overseas markets, according to Wang.
There are around 60 million overseas Chinese worldwide. This means there is huge potential for the export of
Chinese foods. China’s abundant supply of agricultural produce, rich food culture, stable industry and supply chain
and policy support from local authorities in recent years, have collectively laid solid groundwork for taking
ready-to-cook Chinese foods globally.
In June, Fujian province hosted a special event for more than 40 suppliers. They were able to connect both
online and offline with representatives of over 10 buyers from the US and Canada. This will help take the country’s
food culture further to the world.
8. What can be learned about Fotiaoqiang in the first two paragraphs?
A. It was initially served in court.
B. It has a fascinating religious origin.
C. It is a dish with unique cultural identity.
D. It mirrors a dialogue between different cultures.
9. What was the main challenge in exporting fotiaoqiang in large quantities?
A. Limited cold chain technology.
B. High costs of expensive ingredients.
C. Less acceptance by vegetarian consumers.
D. Technical complexity of the cooking method.
10. What does the underlined word “collectively” mean?
A Jointly. B. Literally. C. Greedily. D. Abstractly.
11. What’s the passage mainly about?
A. The cultural heritage value of Fujian’s typical dish.
B. Authorities’ support in boosting regional food exports.
C. The global expansion of Chinese ready-to-cook foods.
D. The challenges of preserving traditional cooking skills.
D
If humans were truly at home under the light of the moon and stars, we would go in darkness happily, the
midnight world as visible to us as it is to the vast number of nocturnal (夜间活动的) species on this planet. Instead,
we are diurnal creatures, with eyes adjusted to living in the sun’s light. This is a basic evolutionary fact, even
第 6页/共 12页though most of us don’t think of ourselves as diurnal beings. Yet we’ve engineered the night to receive us by filling
it with light.
With this kind of engineering comes light pollution, largely resulting from ill-designed lighting washing out
the darkness of night and completely changing the light levels. Wherever human light spills into the natural world,
some aspect of life is affected.
We’ve lit up the night as if it were an unoccupied country, when nothing could be further from the truth.
Among mammals alone, the number of nocturnal species is astonishing. Light is a powerful biological force, and
on many species it acts as a magnet (磁铁). The effect is so powerful that scientists speak of songbirds and seabirds
being “captured” by searchlights on land or by the light from gas flares on marine oil platforms. Flying at night,
birds tend to crash into brightly lit tall buildings.
Frogs living near brightly lit highways suffer nocturnal light levels that are as much as a million times brighter
than normal, throwing nearly every aspect of their behavior out of joint, including their nighttime breeding
choruses. Humans are no less trapped by light pollution than the frogs. Like most other creatures, we do need
darkness. Darkness is as essential to our biological welfare, to our internal clockwork, as light itself.
Living in a glare of our making, we have cut ourselves off from our evolutionary and cultural heritage—the
light of the stars and the rhythms of day and night. In a very real sense, light pollution causes us to lose sight of our
true place in the universe, to forget the scale of our being, which is best measured against the dimensions of a deep
night with the Milky Way—the edge of our galaxy—arching overhead.
12. Why do we humans light up the night?
A. To go outside happily. B. To adapt it for ourselves.
C. To prove the revolutionary fact. D. To learn about nocturnal species.
13. Why does the writer mention birds and frogs?
A. To provide examples of animal protection.
B. To show how light pollution affects animals.
C. To compare the living habits of both species.
D. To explain why the number of certain species has declined.
14. What can be implied in the last paragraph?
A. Human beings cannot go to the outer space.
B. Light pollution does harm to the eyesight of animals.
C. Light pollution has destroyed some of the world heritages.
第 7页/共 12页D. Human beings should reflect on their position in the universe.
15. What might be the best title for the passage?
A. The Magic Light B. The Night Light
C. The Disappearing Night D. The Rhythms of Nature

47. 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。
It was the day of the big cross-country run. Students from seven different primary schools in and around the
small town were warming up and walking the route(路线)through thick evergreen forest.
I looked around and finally spotted David, who was standing by himself off to the side by a fence. He was
small for ten years old. His usual big toothy smile was absent today. I walked over and asked him why he wasn’t
with the other children. He hesitated and then said he had decided not to run.
What was wrong? He had worked so hard for this event!
I quickly searched the crowd for the school’s coach and asked him what had happened. “I was afraid that kids
from other schools would laugh at him,” he explained uncomfortably. “I gave him the choice to run or not, and let
him decide.”
I bit back my frustration(懊恼). I knew the coach meant well—he thought he was doing the right thing. After
making sure that David could run if he wanted, I turned to find him coming towards me, his small body rocking
from side to side as he swung his feet forward.
David had a brain disease which prevented him from walking or running like other children, but at school his
classmates thought of him as a regular kid. He always participated to the best of his ability in whatever they were
doing. That was why none of the children thought it unusual that David had decided to join the cross-country team.
It just took him longer—that’s all. David had not missed a single practice, and although he always finished his run
long after the other children, he did always finish. As a special education teacher at the school, I was familiar with
the challenges David faced and was proud of his strong determination.
