fast-paced societies 3 convenience dominates, many Chinese people prefer daily visits to local markets for the
finest produce. Traditional diets feature four main groups: grains, vegetables, fruits, and meats. Fresh ingredients
are always preferred, with preserved foods like salted fish, or dried fruit 4 (include) only occasionally.
Great value 5 (place) on texture (口感) and original flavors since ancient times. Cooking methods like
steaming and stir-frying are preferred to preserve the natural quality of ingredients. Even though Western influences
have introduced deep-fried options, traditional cuisine generally avoids heavy frying. The texture, whether it’s the
mouthfeel of cooked meat 6 the chewiness of noodles, is considered equally important as taste.

The Step Pyramid, built around the 27th century BCE, was the tallest structure of its time. 11 numerous
discussions on pyramid-building techniques, how these massive stones, some weighing 300 kilograms, 12
(move) remains a mystery. According to a study, a hydraulic ( 液压) lift system consistent with the pyramid’s
internal architecture could explain 13 (it) construction.
The research team proposed that ancient 14 (stream) from the west of the Saqqara plateau flowed into
deep-water tunnels 15 (surround) the Step Pyramid. These waters would have filled the Gisr el-Mudir, 16
massive stone structure acting as a dam to control and store floodwater. This water could have powered a hydraulic
lift within the pyramid’s vertical shaft (竖井), raising heavy stones.
Although the theory is innovative, some Egyptologists remain 17 (convinced). A more widely accepted
theory is that ramps and haulage (货运) devices were used 18 (position) the heavy blocks. David Jeffreys of
University College London argues that the ancient climate may not have supported such a hydraulic system, 19
it required more rainfall than was likely available.
The study’s authors acknowledged that the hydraulic lift system might not have been 20 (permanent)
filled with water but rather operated during periods of flash floods. More research is needed to understand the
rainfall and flooding during that time.

The Canopy Nexus, 71 (situate) in the heart of Berlin, redefines urban green spaces through its creative
use of upright gardening and renewable energy systems. Designed by Lena Müller, 72 eco-architect
celebrated for her award-winning work in sustainable and community-driven urban design, this six-story structure
features 20,000 native plants grown on its solar panel-coated walls, which not only produce clean energy but also
naturally regulate indoor temperatures. The 73 (combine) of plants and advanced technology creates a striking
visual effect in the city.
Visitors enter through a tunnel of recycled glass bricks that soften sunlight, creating rainbow patterns that
change with the time of day. The effect is particularly magical during morning and afternoon hours. At the center
lies a circular (圆形的) place 74 community workshops are held weekly, teaching urban farming skills to
75 (local). The top floor’s observation platform,
76
(access) to the public through stairs lined with air-
purifying moss (青苔), walls, offers amazing views while displaying real-time data on air-quality improvements.
It’s a space that educates as it inspires.
77 truly sets the Nexus apart is its AI-powered irrigation system. Using weather predictions and soil
sensors, it calculates precisely how much water each plant needs, reducing waste 78 90% compared to
traditional methods. This smart water management represents the future of sustainable urban agriculture. Since its
