You don’t need to master Chinese to appreciate these local literary centres in the city. Here are four local bookstores worth visiting.
Zhongshuge
This Chinese bookstore chain has been a success mainly for its interior designs, which is a huge draw for the selfie natives. It houses an endless maze of books packed on shelves that go along the walls and even suspended from the ceiling. It’s a wonderful place for parents as it has a reading area for kids. You might as well get some photos posted on social media here.
Spring Whispers Book Club
You may wonder how the owners decided on its name. It apparently attempts to describe the slight wind created when one flips (翻阅) a magazine page. The Book Club is a beautiful magazine library, offering a wide range of magazines that are free for visitors to flip through at their leisure. It is also a great place to step out of crowds, featuring tall glass windows and abundant natural-lit seating.
Quanmin Changdu Bookstore
Nestled inside a park, this bookstore is a thriving community space for artists. It has regular literary and lifestyle events that range from fine dining to indoor concert although you will need some proficiency in Chinese to participate. It has a wonderful glass ceiling letting in natural light and its space is divided up into smaller rooms that bookworms can hole up in for hours.
Insight Books
Insight Books is a 1, 000 sqm space full of books in a warehouse-like setting. Though mostly packed with hip publications in Chinese, its wooden stair seating area encourages visitors to grab a book and relax. It also has a cafe that serves up food and drink so that you can hang out there all day. Because it's huge and quiet, it is a great place to do work that requires your total concentration.

C. Exposure to natural light. D. Access to free magazines.

I am not alone while I read and write, though nobody is with me. But if a man would be alone, let him look at the stars. The stars awaken a certain respect and amazement, because though always present, they are inaccessible; but all natural objects make a similar impression, when the mind is open to their influence.
When we speak of nature in this manner, we have a distinct but most poetical sense in the mind. To speak truly, few adults can see nature. Or, at least, they have a very shallow seeing. The sun shines light only on the eye of the man, but shines into the eye and the heart of the child. in the presence of nature, not the sun or the summer alone, but every hour and season brings delight; for every hour and change brings a different state of the mind.
Strolling across the fields and woods delights me. And the greatest delight is the suggestion of ad magical relation between man and the vegetable. I am not alone and unacknowledged. They nod to me, and I to them. The waving of the branches in the storm is new to me and old. It takes me by surprise, and yet is not unknown. Its effect is like that of a higher thought or a better emotion coming over me, when I considered I was thinking justly or doing right.
Yet it is certain that the power to produce this delight does not exist in nature, but in man, or in a harmony of both. It is necessary to use these pleasures with control. For nature does not always wear holiday clothes, but the same scene which yesterday breathed perfume is filled with solemnity (庄重) today. Nature always wears the colours of the spirit.
24. What is the difference between adults and children in seeing nature
A. Children prefer to explore nature.
B. Children have less access to nature.
C. Adults often overlook the beauty of nature.
D. Adults are more knowledgeable about nature.
25. Why is "the waving of the branches in the storm" mentioned in paragraph 3
A. To tell a new and exciting experience.
B. To describe a familiar yet surprising sight.
C. To illustrate the power and beauty of storm.
D. To show nature's effect on man's mind or feeling.
26. What kind of feelings did the author have when he went into nature
A. Pleased and proud. B. Amazed and inspired.
C. Lonely but delighted. D. Shocked but respectful.
27 Which would be a suitable title of this essay
A. Being Truly Alone B. Nature Is Wonderful
C. What Nature Can Bring to Our Lives
D. How to Become Young Again Through Nature
C
As you enjoy the companionship of your pets at home, have you ever thought about the more meaningful things they can do Wu Qi, a pet trainer in his 30s, has demonstrated their enormous potential, as his team has trained over 300 dogs, most of them pets, to help people in need.
On a recent day at a support center for elderly people with cognitive (认知的) disorders in Shanghai, seniors warmly greeted the adorable therapy (治疗) dogs upon their arrival. Assisted by devoted volunteers, the dogs participated in a range of interaction and activity-based recovery training. These sessions included exercises tailored to aid in muscle recovery and enhance communication skills and self-expression among the elderly. Autistic (自闭的) children, seniors with cognitive disorders, people with disabilities and those with mental health disorders are all target clients of the therapy dog team.
According to a report on China's pet industry in February, last year alone, urban people had more than 50 million pet dogs. "I hope to reach out to the vast population of pet owners and encourage them to participate in our initiative. Their pet dogs have enormous potential in making a difference and helping others, " Wu said. His team has now prepared a set of comprehensive training courses designed to enhance the pets' sociability, obedience and interactive skills, while also reducing potential overreactions.
Many pet owners are willing to extend a helping hand to assist those in need. Jin Pei, a 75-d year-old grandmother from Shanghai, is among the generous pet lovers. Her dog Biubiu is now a frequent visitor to local nursing institutions for the elderly, recovery organizations for children with developmental disabilities, and hospitals. "On the New Year's Eve, I welcomed Biubiu, a stray dog, into my home, and since then, she has become an essential part of my family. The dog healed me with its companionship and support, and so I would like her to become a therapy dog and cure more people, " Jin said.
28. How did the team train the pet dogs
A. By involving them in healing activities.
B. By guiding them to entertain the patients.
C. By instructing them to greet the target clients.
D. By assisting them to enhance self-expression skills.
29. Which of the following people can benefit from the programme
A. The voluntary children. B. The disabled adults.
C. The beloved pets owners. D. The committed volunteers.
30. What is Jin Pei's attitude towards the programme
A. Objective. B. Unconcerned. C. Skeptical. D. Approving.
31. What is the best title of the text
A. Team Calls on People to Assist the Elderly
B. Dogs Are the Best Friends of Human Beings
C. Team Trains Pets for Animal-assisted Therapy
D. Pet Owners Are Willing to Extend a Helping Hand
D
Energy-storing concrete could, in the future, be used to hold electricity in houses and other buildings.
In a study published earlier this summer, it was demonstrated that a basic mix of concrete and fine charcoal (木炭) can create a low-cost and efficient energy storage system. This could allow homes to store a full day's worth of renewable energy. This interesting mix of ancient materials demonstrated in testing that it could charge and discharge in over 10, 000 cycles. Small handheld lithium-ion batteries(锂电池) can recharge in cycles up to 1, 000 times, with the large-scale batteries powering high-end electric vehicles touching near 1, 500.
As promising as this new technology sounds, replacing our energy facilities with it is not so simple, since it would require a complete change in how we approach modern architecture and lay down roadworks. The chemical required to carry electrical charge through the design would also mean parts of the structure would have to constantly remain wet, and would carry its own additional maintenance (维护) challenges. Nevertheless, our existing energy storage is far from perfect and an urgent maintenance is needed. Electricity from renewable sources, such as solar and wind, all produce power at unstable rates. Wind will change direction frequently, clouds can form unpredictably, and water flow is often chaotic minute-to-minute. These variable times of output mean that the question of how power is stored for a consistent output is a huge issue. Current lithium-ion batteries used for this purpose are expensive, and rely on limited supplies of the precious element itself.
Meanwhile, calculations suggest that a simple cube of charcoal concrete sized just 3. 5 meters across could hold 10 kilowatt-hours of energy, enough to supply the average household's electricity needs for the day. The prospect of using such cheap and readily available ancient materials to fulfill this role is extremely promising, though it may be a while before you see it on a building site near you.
32. How did the author explain the benefits of energy-storing concrete
A. By giving definition. B. By making contrasts.
C. By presenting data. D. By analyzing causes.
33. What is one disadvantage of the new technology
A The chemical involves regular replacement.
B. All parts of the structure should be kept wet.
C. Replacing facilities with it requires transformation.
D. The batteries used are expensive and can't last long.
34. What does the underlined word "chaotic" in paragraph 3 mean
A. Strengthened. B. Disordered. C. Existent. D. Consistent.
35. What can be inferred from the last paragraph
A. We need to be patient to wait for a building site near our houses.
B. The researchers give a suggestion based on the promising future.
C. Energy-storing concrete can be introduced to building the houses.
D. A simple cube of concrete is enough to supply the electricity needs.

I start_51_piano lessons at 41 years old with the idea that if she sees me_52_ as I practice, she'll understand that things don't come easy, even for grown-ups. I know there's going to be a time when I'll_53_on the sideline cheering her on as she finds her own passions. I'm okay with this, and I'm hoping that by then she'll carry the_54_of knowledge through life.

"Good morning, Betty, " Mr. Edmond greeted his daughter at the breakfast table. "How is everything going "
"I slept very well, Papa. I had a dream that I scored the winning goal on a brand new soccer field! "
Mr. Edmond smiled and said, "Your dream could be a sign that River Edge will finally get ad regulation soccer field. Maybe you have special insight into what will happen at tonight's Town Council meeting. Remember, we must get the whole team there to convince them we need a better field. "
That night, Betty and her father arrived at the meeting hall to find it filled to capacity. They sat with the other River Edge Rockers, their community soccer team. Councilwoman Maloof opened the discussion, and Mr. Boyd, the Rockers manager, spoke first. "Our team currently practices in a tiny school yard, and only when it's not already booked. " The team nodded quickly.
Mrs. Smith, owner of Something Sushi, walked to the podium (讲台). "I Believe the town owns an empty lot next to my restaurant, " she said. "Couldn't that be a soccer field " The Rockers applauded.
"A soccer field would be a good use for that lot, " Councilwoman Maloof said. But the town simply doesn't have the money to build and maintain one. "
"The Rockers can do it!" Jamil spoke up.
"Jamil's right, " Mr. Edmond said. He began to negotiate with the Council. "If the town lets the Rockers use the empty lot, we will tun it into a soccer field. "
After some discussion, the Council reached a decision. "We thus approve using the empty lot nearby to Something Sushi for a community soccer field!" Betty looked nervously at her cheering teammates, then at her father. Mr. Edmond winked at her, as if to say, "Didn't you have a dream "

Dear George,
I hope this letter finds you well. I'm writing to share with you the wonderful experience I had at the coming-of-age ceremony held at our school's hall yesterday.
The ceremony was held in the school auditorium. It was a significant event for all of us who turned 18 this year. The principal first delivered an inspiring speech about the responsibilities and challenges that come with adulthood. Then we expressed our thanks to our parents and teachers who had been accompanying us during our growth. There was also a video showcasing our progress over the years, which brought tears to many eyes.
Personally, it was a moment of reflection and appreciation for the people who have shaped me into the person I am today. Looking ahead, I am determined to fulfill my dream so that I can better shoulder my responsibility. I hope this gives you a good overview of the ceremony. If you have any more questions, please feel free to ask.
Yours,
Li Hua

Dear George,
I hope this letter finds you well. I'm writing to share with you the wonderful experience I had at the coming-of-age ceremony held at our school's hall yesterday.
The ceremony began with a heartwarming speech by our principal, who spoke about the importance of embracing adulthood and the responsibilities that come with it. After the speech, we were treated to a series of performances, such as heartfelt poetry recitations and musical performances. Towards the end of the ceremony, each student was presented with a personalized keychain engraved with our names to commemorate this special occasion, which will remind us of our transition into adulthood. Overall, it served as a time to reflect on our past experiences, embrace our present circumstances, and look forward to the future with hope and determination.
I hope this letter has given you a glimpse into the joy and significance of the event. Take care and stay blessed!
Yours,
Li Hua

The following day, the team got together to share ideas for raising money. One idea after another popped up, all of which sounded practical. So they divided themselves into several groups and were each assigned to one particular task. One undertook the newspaper-delivering in the neighborhood, and one group were up to taking care of the gardens for the busy neighbors. Amazingly, Betty managed to find a job at the pet store, where she would feed, walk and wash the dogs. Money seemed to roll in, but it was still far from enough. To make up for the difference, the Rockers organized a charity performance in the community, asking for donations to the soccer field. Their efforts finally paid oft' and a soccer field of their own was on the way.
A week later, the team gathered at the lot, carrying tools purchased with their earnings. Overgrown weeds and large rocks were really a challenge for these soccer enthusiasts, but with the dream of a soccer field in mind, they immediately set out to work. The next few days witnessed the group removing the overgrown weeds and digging out the large rocks from the lot and having them taken away. After smoothing the field with the soil brought somewhere else, they took one step further by planting grass on it. With all the work done, a soccer field of their own was finally born. Looking at the field, the teammates exchanged an understanding smile, imagining themselves sending the ball through the air, and toward the goal.
