W: Yes. The work won’t be very interesting. It’ll be mostly cooking, cleaning and working on reception and selling drinks. But our hours are eight till ten in the morning and six till nine in the evening. So we’ll have plenty of time during the day to go for a walk in the open air.

M: I wish I could get a job like that. How did you find out about it?

W: I read about it in a magazine called Summer Work Round Britain. It tells you about all kinds of different jobs in different places. You can work on farms picking fruits, or at hotels near the sea. You can even get work at music festivals.

【题目】 If you’ve never heard of eight-year-old Gavin Thomas, you clearly aren’t one of the millions of people around the world who have fallen in love with the young internet sensation (网红) .

But it isn’t in his native United States that Gavin has really hit the big time, the honor belongs to China. Since creating a profile a mere four months ago on Weibo, Gavin has gained an astonishing 1.8 million followers - and the number continues to grow, along with his fame. On Twitter, by comparison, Gavin has a mere 450,000 followers.

Why is a young American, born in Minnesota and still in elementary school, an instant sensation in the largest country in the world? It’s because of Gavin’s unique facial expressions, which have become a hugely successful viral meme (模仿传递行为) . Gavin first made a name for himself in the US, when short videos of him playing with his uncle Nick Mastodon quickly became a hit online. But it wasn’t until Gavin’s videos spread gradually to the Chinese cyberspace, particularly one of his reacting with a nervous smile to a gecko (壁虎) being placed on his head, that his fame truly took off. A picture of Gavin’s face, smiling awkwardly, might be used as many as 10 million times a day across China’s various social media platforms, according to Ann Ding, founder and CEO of Dongtu.com, a major distributor of online gifts, told CNN. Ding said Gavin seemed to be more popular in China than in the US. She estimated that all of the total number of Gavin related pictures used across platforms in China has easily exceeded 1 billion. His appearance on Weibo was widely reported by Chinese state media, and his first trip to China in August made headlines across the country.

【题目】 Good education is expensive. Some countries today have proven that belief to be wrong, though.

Norway

Want to achieve your post-graduate degrees? Even if you aim to achieve an undergraduate, Norway is a good option because you will not have to send a penny to anyone. This is possible because of the government's financing of the education from tax income. The only problem is that most of the top universities in the country teach with their mother tongue and as a foreigner, you have to familiarize with the language enough to pass a required test.

Turkey

【题目】 In many-even most-space-themed films, whenever Earth faces a disaster, the solution is always leaving the planet in spaceships. But the latest Chinese sci-fi movie,“The Wandering Earth”offers a different idea.

In the film, which is adapted from a short story by Chinese sci-fi writer Liu Cixin, Earth is in danger of being destroyed by the dying Sun. Humans around the world work together to build a huge engine system that will push Earth away from the Sun. Instead of leaving Earth-again-this time we’re taking it with us.

This idea didn't come from nowhere. For thousands of years, Chinese people have had a special emotion at their “homeland” in their hearts and minds. One old saying is “luo ye gui gen", which means returning to one’s homeland in old age, like fallen leaves returning to the roots of their tree. Or look to an ancient poem: “The season called the White Dew ( 白露) begins tonight/Nowhere as in our native place is the moon so bright.” These both show the strong relationship that Chinese people have had with their homeland.

This is probably what sets “The Wandering Earth" apart from Hollywood-style space films. “What is Chinese sci-fi?”Guo Fan. the film’s director, said in an interview. “Films that can really express Our cultural and spiritual core ( 精神核心) can be called Chinese sci-fi. Otherwise, we' re just copying others and telling the same American stories.

And the makers of “The Wandering Earth” may have chosen the best time to tell the Chinese sci-fi story. The film was screened on Feb 5, the first day of Chinese New Year. It was a time when many people had just made the hard journey back to their hometowns. So to them, there is only one possible way to tell the story: Earth goes wherever humans go, because it's our home.

1What can we know about “The Wandering Earth” from the passage?

A.It follows the latest film fashion.

B.It is based on Liu Cixin' s book.

C.It is a film copying foreign movies.

D.It offers us a new experience of watching films.

2What does Para 3 mainly talk about?

A.The suitable season when the film was screened.

B.The famous poems mentioned in the film.

C.The common points between Chinese films and foreign films.

D.The cultural background of the film.

3The makers of this film choose Feb5 to put on it probably because_________.

A.it was the Spring Festival and many people have time to see it.

B.many old people want to return to their hometown.

C.it can cause many people’s common feelings at this time.

D.Chinese people usually celebrate together on that day.

4What can we infer from Guo Fan's words?

A.American sci-fi fails to express its culture.

B.“The Wandering Earth" tells a foreign story.

C.Chinese sci-fi should have its own features.

D.Science fiction films should express certain spiritual cores.
