The traditional Chinese name chop (名章) or seal has been used for thousands of years. 1 is quite likely that people began using name chops because Chinese characters are so complex and few people in ancient times2(be) able to read and write. In addition, chops date back to a time3there was no other form of4(identify) such as ID cards.

A chop also served as a valid signature. All official5(document) in China needed a chop to be valid. Today, most Chinese are educated, but the tradition6(keep) alive in China.

If you spend any length of time in China, you will almost 7(certain) need to have a chop. If you’re staying a short time, a chop makes a(n) 8 (amaze) souvenir. A chop can be made quickly, but first you will need to have your name9 (translate) into Chinese characters.

There are many different sizes and styles of chops. Inexpensive small chops can be carved 10wood or plastic — upmarket chops are made from ivory, jade, marble or steel. Only a special type of slow-drying red ink is used for a name chop, so if you buy a chop in China, get an inkpad (印泥盒) too.

【题目】阅读下面短文,根据所给情节进行续写,使之构成一个完整的故事。

The day of the balloon festival, I felt as light as a hot-air balloon. This year I wouldn’t just be watching. I’d be riding in Mr. J’s truck, following the flight of the balloon and meeting it when it came down.

It was a perfect day. Dad and I drove down the road, circled along the lake and turned into the field that was being used as a parking area. Dad pointed to the lake. “That’s where the balloon festival will take place.” he said. We came to a stop and I got out of the car. And then I saw it, a white bird with black stripes, brown head, and skinny legs. It screamed and beat its wings in the dirt in front of the cars that were driving downhills. Its wings looked broken. Suddenly it cried bitterly and flew off.

“Dad,” I called, but my father was watching the balloons.

“It’s a killdeer(北美喧鹆).” A silver-haired old woman said to me, adding that there must have been a nest here somewhere. “In the parking area?” I asked. She nodded firmly. “It was a nesting place before it became a parking area. No one told the killdeer about the balloon festival!”

“Jack!” Dad called “Isn’t it time you went down to meet Mr. J?”

“I have got to go.” I said to the woman but she pointed with her walking stick. There, on the ground was a perfect nest of eggs, looking like pebbles(卵石). They were almost in the path of cars, trucks and motorbikes.

Suddenly, the parent bird was back to its nest and its wings both twisted again. “Jack!” Dad called again. “The balloons are ready to fly.”

“Dad! I am…” A truck roared over the hill. Brakes(刹车) screamed and dust flew. “What’s the matter?” asked Dad angrily from the truck.

【题目】 Bill Gates’ body might live in the present, but his brain lives in the future. He has made a career out of predicting what will happen in matters of computing, public health and the environment. He correctly predicted the rise of smartphones and social media, and his latest predictions could come true, too. Here’s what Gates predicts for the future of our world.

In his Annual Letter 2015, Gates made the prediction that Africa’s agriculture industry would increase productivity by 50% by 2030. Now the continent buys about $50 billion worth of food from other countries each year, although 70% of people in Africa are farmers. “In the next 15 yearshowevercreations in farming will solve the food problem in Africa,” Gates wrote. “The world has already developed crops that are more productive; with all the technologies, African farmers could possibly double their harvests.”

By 2035, there could be almost no poor countries. In his Annual Letter 2014, Gates bravely predicted that continued levels of foreign help could mean there would be almost no more poor countries by 2035. “Almost all countries will be what we now call lower-middle income or richer,” Gates explained. “Countries will learn from their most productive neighbors and benefit from things like better seeds and the digital revolution. ”

By 2030, the world will discover a clean-energy breakthrough to power our world. One of Gate’s more hopeful predictions which came in 2016 said that wind, solar, or some other renewable resources would power most of the world within 15 years. “The difficulty we face is big, perhaps bigger than many people imagine,” he wrote in his letter. “But so is the chance to make things better.” Many of the poor countries he visited had no running water or electricity. At night this meant they couldn’t light or power their homes, and keep businesses open.” If the world can find a type of cheap, clean energy, it will do more than prevent climate change,” he wrote. “It will change the lives of millions of the poorest families.”

1What does the author think of Gates’ predictions?

A.They sound quite unreal.B.They are mainly about computers.

C.They will probably come true.D.They haven’t produced any end result.

2How is the agriculture in Africa?

A.It is losing its workforce.B.It is in need of productivity.

C.It can satisfy the local needs.D.It is as backward as Africa’s industry.

3What should poor countries do according to Gates?

A.Use expensive seeds.B.Expect less foreign help.

C.Rely on the digital revolution.D.Learn from the experience of other countries.

4What’s Gates’ attitude to clean-energy development?

A.It’s no easy task.B.It’s hard to imagine.

C.It can put climate change to an end.D.It has little to do with poor families.

【题目】 Many people believe that language belongs to human beings. However, cats have developed a language not for each other, but for the human beings who have them as pets.

When communicating with each other, cats "talk" with a system of signals. Their tails, rather than any kind of “speech", act as an important way to express themselves. They also touch each other to express their feelings. With other cats, they will use their voice only to express pain. Unbelievably, all of that changes when a human walks into the room. Cats use many different kinds of vocal (声音的)expressions when they communicate with a person. Since these vocal expressions are not used to communicate with other cats, it seems that cats have developed this "language" to communicate with their human owners.

This fact is shown more clearly when researchers are watching rooms that have only one cat and those with several cats. And when there is only one cat in the room, it is usually very vocal, since the only creature around with whom the cat can communicate is its owner. Cats with other cats, though, are much quieter. If they want to have a conversation, they only need go to other cats and communicate in their natural way.

Since cats have learned to meow 喵喵叫) for the only purpose of communicating with human owners, their owners should take the time to learn what their different meows mean. If an owner knows, to name just a few examples, which meow means the cat is hungry, which means the cat .wants to be petted, and which means the cat wants to have a little "conversation" , the relationship between cats and owners will be closer.

1If a cat, together with other cats, finds its body hurts, it may express it with its _______.

A.tailB.eyes

C.headD.voice

2When a human enters a room with some cats, what will they do?

A.Stop making any noise.B.Use their tails to show love.

C.Begin .to use vocal expressions.D.Stop communicating with each other.

3What are cat owners advised to do?

A.Communicate more with cats.B.Learn to meow in different ways.

C.Encourage cats to talk with each other.D.Teach cats to understand human language.

4What is the text mainly about? . .

A.The language of cats.B.Advice on keeping pets.

C.Pets* different expressions.D.Communication among cats.
