At Beijing’s Palace Museum, it sometimes seems that time stands still, but the clocks keep ticking at a small workshop. This is where Qi Haonan works. As the fourth generation to deal with ancient clocks at the museum, Qi has returned more than 100 timepieces to their former glory.
“Restoring (修复) such treasures doesn’t mean making them look brand new. Through cleaning and restoration. I try to make the clocks return to their former form, restoring their mechanical (机械的) and performance functions (功能),” the 41-year-old restorer says.
Born in Beijing in 1981, Qi graduated from the capital’s North China University of Technology in 2004, majoring in mechanical automation. In 2005, he joined the cultural relics restoration department at the Palace Museum, becoming an apprentice (学徒) of Wang, the museum’s third generation watchmaker. “What amazes me most about these clocks is that they are mechanical wonders combining technology and art. In the beginning, everything in the palace was fresh to me. It made me excited to even think about repairing clocks,” Qi says.
But reality soon weakened his excitement. There is an apprenticeship rule: For the first year, you can look, but don’t touch. “Clock restoration includes too many details. Being in a hurry can do a great deal of damage.” he says.
From 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. every day in the apprenticeship year, Qi did research by checking and taking apart watches and clocks collected from his friends. At the end of the year, he could finally get his hands on a small French clock in the museum. He still remembers the excitement when the hands of the French clock began to move, which took him a month to restore.
“Now I have two apprentices. They both have their unique skills. These skills will make us better at restoring the treasures.” Qi says.
24. What is Qi’s task at the museum
A. Making the clocks look as new as possible.
B. Keeping the clocks clean and well preserved.
C. Bringing back the appearance and functions of the clocks.
D. Improving the performance of the clocks to be used in real life.
25. What is the work of restoring clocks like
A. Simple. B. Demanding. C. Profitable. D. Threatening.
26. Which of the following can best describe Qi
A. Creative and honest. B. Careful and energetic.
C. Curious and humorous. D. Patient and devoted.
27. What is the suitable title of the text
A. A Man with Time on His Hands B. Amusing Events in the Palace Museum
C. An Apprentice Making Wonders D. Ancient Clocks Housed in the Museum

A pacer is someone who runs in races or marathons to help set the pace for runners. There are different types of pacers. A race pacer usually carries a sign highlighting a specific competition time for a race. He helps runners reach their goals without relying on technology, such as a smart watch or GPS. Professional pacers are used in long-distance races. They run at different sections of the race to inspire runners. A record pacer helps a professional runner set a new record, who often leads the race for a predetermined distance at a predetermined pace.
A runner being paced runs directly following a pacer. Having a pacer can be helpful for a long-distance runner because researches show that it takes more energy to lead in a race all through the race than to follow another runner. The pacer takes on the responsibility of timing and establishing the pace so the runner only has to focus on his own running. Having a pacer as a guide in a long race can take some of the stress and pressure off by keeping an even pace. The pacer may also provide encouragement along the way to work towards the goal.
There are times, though, when running with a pacer can be more stressful than beneficial for a runner—especially for amateur runners. Not having taken professional training, you set a goal to run a particular pace, but then you realize this may not be the best speed for you. In some cases, the pacer is running too quickly for what you can stand. Other times, you could misjudge your abilities and run a slower pace than what your body can bear.
It is important to note that you don’t have to stay with a pacer just because you started with him. If you feel strong at the end and want to finish faster, you can run ahead. Or if he is too fast, you could slow down and maybe even join the slower pace group behind you.
28. What does a record pacer do
A. He provides technical support.
B. He helps a runner keep the record.
C. He offers medical help to a runner.
D. He leads a professional runner at a speed set beforehand.
29. What does the underlined word “amateur” in Paragraph 3 probably mean
A. Injured. B. Legendary. C. Unprofessional. D. Graceful.
30. What advice does the author give us in the last paragraph
A. Changing pacers from time to time.
B. Following the pacer strictly all through the race.
C. Giving up something and preparing for a breakthrough.
D. Listening to your body and doing what feels right for you.
31. In which section of a website can the text be found
A. Sport and fitness. B. Science and technology.
C. History and culture. D. Health and lifestyle.
D
You might remember watching Tweety and Sylvester from the Looney Tunes cartoons while growing up. Every time the cat Sylvester would try to eat the bird Tweety, the latter would call its owner and complain about the cat, just as a human would. In reality, several birds are able to mimic (模仿) speech. The most common bird known to do this is the parrot.
Studies have shown that the young birds learn and memorize species-specific songs by mimicking vocalizations (发声) of their father, starting as early as a week after birth. If separated from the father during this sensitive (感觉敏锐的) period, young birds may develop very strange songs.
It is common sense that a singer with a broader vocal range (范围) will be more successful than one with a smaller vocal range. Similarly, male songbirds with the vocal learning ability to learn broader types of songs enjoy higher chances of attracting attention of female. Therefore, such songbirds started achieving broader song learning skills as time went by. Eventually, they ended up with vocal skills so broad that they could not just learn songs from other males in their species, but songs from different species too.
Parrots have been kept as pets for thousands of years, and are probably the most famous mimics. Vocal mimicry in parrots has often caught human’s attention, since they can mimic the difficult vocalizations of human speech learned from their caretakers. The reason for this is not to attract mates. Parrots raised as pets often mimic humans to establish social connections.
In a study on an African Grey parrot, scientists observed that it could not just mimic human speech, but could also learn several hundreds of words and their meanings, recognize objects by names, and even count! The study has made scientists think that parrots are not simply mimicking, but that their vocal ability is very similar to that of human speech. This is a huge discovery, as humans are the only animals known to be capable of using “language” to date.
32. Why does the author mention the cartoon in Paragraph 1
A. To introduce the main topic.
B. To find a solution to a problem.
C. To present conflicts between animals.
D. To encourage readers to watch the cartoon.
33. What can be inferred from Paragraph 2
A. Male birds are born to have the ability to use their language.
B. Animals start learning language one week earlier than humans.
C. Young male birds are more sensitive to vocalizations than female ones.
D. Language learning needs proper language environment at a proper stage.
34. Why do pet parrots mimic humans
A. To attract mates. B. To build relations with humans.
C. To show off their vocal abilities. D. To communicate with other parrots.
35. How does the author feel about the findings of the study in the last paragraph
A. Confused. B. Honoured. C. Amazed. D. Disappointed.

Single mother Krystal works hard to provide daily necessities for her kid. They may not have many material things. But love is clearly in no short supply.
Krystal was having a particularly tough time making ends meet. The bike she rode to work broke and couldn’t be used. But she couldn’t afford a new one. So she had to walk to work, spending an extra hour on the way. Once in a while, she would wonder whether there was hope in life. Her son, 13-year-old William Preston, couldn’t help but notice.
Seeing his mother work so hard to earn money, William, the sweet young man, was always helping his mother with housework. He didn’t want to see his mom walking to work every day. So, he decided he was going to do whatever it took to buy his mom another bike.
William saw on YouTube that a boy bought his mom a bike and then surprised her with it. He also wanted to do that. William came across a cheap used bike on sale on Facebook. And he knew what he needed to do to help out his struggling mom.
In fact, the 13-year-old has been doing yard work for people in his community to make some money. So, he continued to work hard and save money, which was impressive enough for someone his age. But William took it one step further.
Back in his own room, William was staring at the big box of toys that his relatives and friends had bought him as gifts. He treasured the toys. He spent most of his spare time playing with them. Among them was the game player Xbox, his most prized possession (财产). When his mother called him to have supper, he had an idea.
