about characters     1     advancing the plot. The book’s most famous dish, a preparation of eggplant called 
qiexiang(茄鲞), is a rich dish that requires     2    (day) to prepare involving steaming eggplant ten times in soup 
made from old hens. The dish overwhelms the family’s poor relatives, first with envy, and later, with terrible discomfort 
in stomachs.
The novel provides ample     3    (inspire) to today’s cooks. Food bloggers go viral with attempts     4 
 
(recreate) the book’s most famous dishes. “Red Chamber Banquets” pop up in theme restaurants across China, and 
indeed worldwide, with the dishes plated in Michelin style.
While most foods     5    (serve) in the novel are made with high skill, they are made with only a few 
simple seasonal ingredients. In China’s culinary culture, humble ingredients     6    (prize) because they are in 
season. A relative     7     brags (吹嘘) about enjoying food out of season is later revealed to have a dangerously 
violent temper. A “bad apple,” one might say.
Like all great literature, the enduring popularity of Dream of the Red Chamber comes from     8    (it) 
many layers of meaning. Readers can appreciate it     9     an engaging story. The same can also be said about 
the food. When we read about it, we can admire the cooking art, mine     10     text for historical clues, or seek double

China Focus: China’s upscale ice creams melting hearts of consumers
Once just a simple way to cool off, ice cream is seeing a surge of new varieties to meet the expanding tastes

souvenir shops at tourist attractions across China since their first appearance. Handan Museum, a well-known tourist 
site in Hebei in April introduced creative ice creams that drew inspiration from two precious artifacts     5     (house)

train in 24 hours,”     1     (cover) an impressive 5, 887.76 kilometers within a single day, according to the

The real     7     (excite) came near the end of the journey. “My final train, D5122 from Guiyang to Yibin, 
was planned just four minutes before the 24-hour mark,” Wang said. “If it had been put off by over three minutes, my

As the doors opened and Wang     8     (step) onto the platform, his watch showed just 40 seconds 
remaining, which was     9     exciting margin (差距) between success and failure.
At the end of his journey,     10     made Mr Wang think highly of the power of China’s high-speed 
railway system was its rapid development and high efficiency, which made the impossible possible.

Did you know that     1     (cut) meat and dairy products from your diet can reduce your food carbon 
footprint by 73 percent? It’s likely you’ve heard similar statistics before. It might have even held your attention long 
enough to try a plant-based diet for a while. However, for some, cutting out delicious meat products forever seems 
too     2     (restrict) to sustain long term.
It’s true that we’re creatures of habit, so it’s no wonder that the dishes we’ve grown to love might be difficult

change the way we as a nation consume food.

Currently, companies are racing     9     (create) the first “lab-grown” meat products as a seemingly 
simple answer to everyone’s concerns. The exciting thing to take from this, whichever side you may be on, is that the 
fake meat industry is growing so rapidly, and it’s certain to produce a     100     (sustain) option soon.

In ancient times, the names and contributions of many     1     (talent) women often went unrecorded in 
history. One such remarkable woman was Wu, a Chinese cook from the Southern Song Dynasty,     2     creations

Health is wealth. In May 2025, Hunan Province introduced a three-year action plan     1     (reduce) salt and oil 
in local diets, including new standards for Hunan cuisine, traditionally known for its strong flavours. Earlier, in

Guidelines (2025—2030) ,     3     advocate for limiting salt, oil, and sugar intake while promoting portion

These efforts go with the Healthy China Initiative,     4     national strategy emphasizing disease prevention 
through better nutrition. In the past, food choices were driven     5     (primary) by taste, but today, scientific 
dietary principles are gaining attraction. As people become more health-conscious (注重健康的) , they recognize the 
link between improper diets and diseases. This awareness is driving a shift towards healthier     6     (eat) 
patterns. 
Modern lifestyles,     7     (characterize) by long work hours, sedentary (久坐的) behaviour, and irregular 
mealtimes, have contributed to unhealthy dietary habits. Many people rely     8     takeout meals, often containing 
excessive (过多的) amounts of oil, salt, and sugar, posing risks to long-term health. While urbanization has expanded 
food choices, it has also made processed and unhealthy foods more     9     (access) . 
At the same time, increased access to nutrition information—through websites, apps, and social media—has 
improved public awareness of health. This shift reflects broader social values, as people prioritize health and well-
being in their      10      (pursue) of a better quality of life.

As is known to all, English is      1      (wide) used in global affairs. No matter what kind of English 
people are speaking, native speakers have no trouble understanding the basic words like “gas”, “petrol”, “subway”, 
“apartment”, “pants” and other words      2      small differences in spelling and pronunciation. But students, 
3      mother tongue is not English, are struggling with billions of words. On      4      other hand, from 
foreigners' point of view when they refer to learning a language, Chinese      5      (regard) as a demanding 
language. 
Firstly, the major language which is called Putonghua in China is hard enough      6      (learn) , let alone 
varieties of dialects and a large vocabulary. Secondly, Chinese characters are abstract symbols for them. The writing 
system,      7      (date) back to the Shang Dynasty when people carved something with specific      8 
 
(mean) on bones or shells, is like strange pictures. However, based on the common      9      (appreciate) of 
these characters, some classic works are still read now. Besides, calligraphy is also an art form closely       10  
(relate) to Chinese culture. Both languages are of equal importance. We should learn them well to bridge the gap 
between cultures.

Life’s True Value
In the journey of life, we often seek the answer to the question: what is life’s true value? While opinions vary 
across time and cultures, some core principles have always guided humanity forward.
Festivals and celebrations, deeply rooted in diverse cultures, offer vivid reflections of this     1     (pursue). 
For instance, Chinese Lunar New Year places great emphasis     2     family bonds, while Western Thanksgiving 
highlights the spirit of gratitude — both guiding people to seek values beyond material gains.
At the core of life lie unshakable morals and virtues, as     3     (illustrate) by Lin Qiaozhi. She     4  
(make) a lifelong decision decades ago to dedicate herself to maternal and child health,     5     (abandon) 
personal comfort and even marriage. Her choice clearly shows that true value never comes from self-interest, but 
from devotion to     6     well-being of others.
Such a spirit also drives grand undertakings like space exploration. Astronauts brave countless dangers not for 
fame, but to expand human     7     (horizon) and push the boundaries of knowledge. This proves that noble 
endeavors always transcend material desires.
Mark Twain’s The Million Pound Bank Note     8     (far) demonstrates this truth. The protagonist’s 
experiences vividly show that money is merely a tool.     9     is integrity and kindness, not wealth, that earn 
respect and bring true happiness.
In short, after all these explorations, we ultimately arrive at a point     10     life's true value shines through 
— not in chasing material gains but in pursuing meaningful goals and contributing to the greater good.
