【题目】China used to be called the “Kingdom of Bicycles”, but since then, cars have taken over the country. There are too many vehicles and pedestrians in the street now, so the roads are crowded nearly all the time, and even going a few kilometers can take up to an hour, which can explain the fact that it’s very difficult to travel across major Chinese cities.

Now, new apps that help people register and find bikes are being used more and more across cities like Beijing. The new apps that let people share bicycles are easing traffic, and reducing pollution. Cheng Li started using bike share services about six months ago. He said now he is using the car less and the bike more. For Zhang Jian, the bike share revolution makes him recollect the old days. “Now, when we’re riding home from work, especially in the evening, when it’s not rushed, it feels like we’re reliving the past,” Zhang said.

However, there is now a lot of competition among bike share providers because of their popularity. Some providers are trying to flood the streets with bikes to be more visible. Sometimes there are so many bikes that they completely block the sidewalks. This has become a problem for city governments. It is not uncommon for bike users to leave bikes in the middle of the street or on the sidewalk. This blocks cars and people in already crowded cities.

In Beijing’s southern district of Daxing, officials have been trying to fix the problem by seizing illegally parked bikes. VOA spoke to a woman who said, “Bike sharing is really convenient, but no one is taking care of the problem of illegally parked bikes.” Behind her were several thousand seized bikes.

Many people in China feel that bike shares are helping reduce the country’s transportation problems and polluted air. However, they also hope companies will do more to improve their service and avoid flooding the streets with bikes.

1Which is the cause of traffic jams in major Chinese cities?

A. The booming of cars. B. Lack of bike share services.

C. Poor road conditions. D. Lack of parking lots.

2What does the underlined word “recollect” in Paragraph 2 probably mean?

A. Step forward. B. Back off.

C. Look back. D. Slide away.

3What does paragraph 3 mainly want to tell us about the bike shares?

A. Their popularity. B. Their problems.

C. Their competition. D. Their advantages.

4What do you think will be discussed about the bike shares in the following paragraph?

A. They create bike revolution. B. They solve the traffic problems.

C. They bring about polluted air. D. They need further improving.

【题目】In Spain, there are as many gazpachos (西班牙冷汤菜)as there are Spanish people. Every family here has its own recipe with its own little changes.

I much prefer gazpacho mil do in a food mill,as that: allows tor some texture (口感),and that is the way it was made when I was young, Nowadays it is done in a blender, an electric machine tor mixing soft foods mil liquid together, but it does not torn out exactly the same. Machine-blended gazpacho with bread and olive oil is more like a salmorejo (chilled tomato soup) , but without that soup’s creamy smoothness.

Although tomatoes and peppers arrived on our tables by the 16th century, red gazpachos that mod them did not become popular until the 19th century. Big landowner families that had a lot of country employees generally had a “gazpachero”, a man who would prepare gazpacho for the peasants working on their estates. These men made gazpacho by pounding the vegetable mixture in an olive wood bowl, as in a mortar. They were very patients,as it took quite some time.

The main difference between gazpacho and some of its variations lies in texture and emulsion (乳状液).In a classic Spanish gazpacho,olive oil is simply stirred

in at the end; in salmorejo, porra and other soups? the olive oil is emulsified, resulting in rd brighter orange colour and a smooth, creamy texture. Pipirrana's components are the same as those in gazpacho,but they arc cut into pieces; with the addition of a little water or ice cubes,it turns into a liquid salad,and the bread is served separately ,for dipping.

Gazpacho is a sophisticated (复杂的)dish that takes to a multitude of variations. But with all its versatility (易变),it still requires a certain balance of components. In particular, too much vinegar or garlic can ruin it

Here in Spain,gazpacho can be a drink,a a dip,a sauce or seasoning, a starter* a main dish,even a dessert. It is eaten at any time ot the day and at any time during a meal. Nothing is more delicious than a piece of toast with a little gazpacho or salmorejo for breakfast! Gazpacho goes well with almost everything but is difficult to pair with wine. The best wines to drink with gazpacho are sherries (fortified wines from Jerez) and whites.

1Which of the following opinions can you infer the writer is in favour of?

A. No other food in the world is more delicious than gazpachos.

B. A new technique does not necessarily mean an improvement,

C. You cannot make any real achievement without a big dream.

D. A recipe is the crucial factor in whether a dish will be popular.

2Which of the following can Ix? TRUE to the fact?

A. Gazpachos have a sour taste,

B. Gazpachos me unhealthy food.

C. Gazpachos started in the 16th century.

D. Gazpachos are nothing but a popular dish.

3What is the writer's purpose of writing the passage?

A. To introduce gazpachos to the readers.

B. To show ways of preparing gnzpachos.

C. To explain why gazpachos are popular.

D. To urge people to eat more gazpachos.

【题目】Chinese writers seldom win a big prize in the world. One of those prizes is the Hans Christian Andersen Prize, the highest honor in the world that can be given to an author and an illustrator of children's books. No Chinese writer had ever won it, until April 4, 2016, when 62-year-old Cao Wenxuan received the prize. Cao received the honor at the Bologna Children’s Book Fair in Italy.

Patricia Aldana praised Cao’s “deeply humanistic” books. These novels admit that life can be sad for children.

Instilling children with good virtues for the sake of humankind is something that Cao stresses. He said, “It’s time for us to alter our understanding of reading. Books should bring not only joy to young readers, but also have their ideas about life.”

That feature of his works has touched many adults too. “The common choice of the judges, Cao writes beautifully about the lives of children facing great challenges,” said Aldana.

After his success, Cao praised good translation for bringing attention to his work. Chinese children's literature could get high honor in the world if it were correctly translated in a style that could be easily understood, he said.

Other writers, including Jin Bo, have also blamed poor translation as the reason why Chinese literature fails to get honor in the world. Jin was named for the Hans Christian Andersen Prize in 1992, but at that time, he had to translate, in a hurry, several paragraphs from his book to give to the judges. "On one hand, the jury has little knowledge of Chinese authors. On the other hand, it is we ourselves who didn't introduce our work and promote (促进) ourselves enough," he said in a class in 2013.

1According to the passage, Cao was awarded, because ________.

A. the children in his books are poor

B. he wrote books for children

C. his books are about human kindness

D. he came to the Bologna Children’s Book Fair

2According to Cao, reading should ________.

A. change the ideas of children on books

B. help kids kill time gladly

C. bring more joy to children

D. make children think actively about life

3The last paragraph suggests that most Chinese writers ________.

A. poorly translate their books into English

B. failed to get to know the judges

C. didn’t try to introduce their books to foreigners

D. didn’t know how to introduce themselves
