Five Ancient Chinese Poems about Spring
As the winter chill still lingers through early spring, longing for warm days has sprung up everywhere. Before the flowers are in full blossom, here is a collection of ancient Chinese poems picturing the revival of life during spring. The English translations used in this article are from Chinese translator Xu Yuanchong's editions.
Spring Morning-by Meng Haoran (689-740) of the Tang Dynasty (618-907)
This spring morning in bed I'm lying,
Not to awake till birds are crying.
After one night of wind and showers,
How many are the fallen flowers
Written in a Village South of the Capital-by Cui Hu (772-846) of the Tang Dynasty
In this house on this day last year, a pink face vied
In beauty with the pink peach blossoms side by side.
I do not know today where the pink face has gone;
In the vernal breeze still smile pink peach blossoms full-blown.
Happy Rain on a Spring Night (Excerpts)-by Du Fu (712-770) of the Tang Dynasty
Good rain knows its time right;
It will fall when comes spring.
With wind it steals in night;
Mute, it moistens each thing.
Dreaming of the Southern Shore-by Bai Juyi (772-846) of the Tang Dynasty
Fair Southern shore,
With scenes I adore.
At sunrise riverside flowers redder than fire,
In spring green waves grow as blue as sapphire,
Which I can't but admire.
Love Seeds-by Wang Wei (701-761) of the Tang Dynasty
Red berries grow in the southern land,
How many load in spring the trees
Gather them till full is your hand;
They would revive fond memories.

On the outside, 12-year-old Luna seems like your average kid. It's not until you get to know her that you learn that Luna is anything but average.
Born with a heart defect (缺陷) called dextrocardia, Luna has had three open-heart operations and continues to pursue her interests in art and fashion. But when Luna was approached by athletic shoe company Saucony to design a shoe for sale across the country, it came as quite a surprise.
"This is so incredible. I got to use my art and creativity for something new that I'd never thought I'd be able to design," Luna said. She is one of six patients from Boston Children's Hospital (BCH) who have partnered with Saucony to design their own shoe to launch the Shoes with Soul campaign.
"Rather than just a donation, we wanted to create an experience and a moment that would not only raise money, but also awareness to highlight all the amazing work that's being done at BCH," says Chris, Saucony's vice president. "Specifically, we wanted to give some of the BCH kids an opportunity to share their stories and their talents with the world."
Luna's design is fashionable. "On the tongue, they digitalized one of my drawings, and then on the bottom it's a really bright pink color, and on the inside, the sole of the shoe is actually another drawing I did of a sunset," she said. "Thinking about kids everywhere around the world wearing my shoe is amazing. It blows my mind."
The income from the shoe sales will benefit the Boston Children's Hospital Cardiac Fitness Program, which encourages kids to "find your possible" through personalized exercise programs tailored for each individual patient's heart condition.
"It feels really good to help people and it's really something I can relate to," says Luna. "The advice I would give a kid or someone like me is to never give up. There are a lot of kids out there with your condition and you're not alone."
24. What can we infer from Chris' words
A. It's unwise to raise money. B. It's optional to seek donations.
C. It's wonderful to study art. D. It's necessary to show kids' talents.
25. What does the underlined sentence "It blows my mind." in paragraph 5 probably mean
A. I'm overjoyed. B. I'm very serious.
C. My mind goes blank. D. My mind is racing.
26. Which of the following best describes Luna
A. Grateful and helpful. B. Generous and serious.
C. Gifted and determined. D. Creative and sensitive.
27. What is the text mainly intended to do
A. Tell us the challenges the disabled face. B. Introduce a campaign with kid patients.
C. Launch Saucony's new brand shoes. D. Set a good example to the disabled.
C
Talking to your children about the misinformation (错误信息) they may find online is a great idea. Children don't always have the judgment or critical thinking skills to test what they read or watch, but they'll develop these abilities quickly if you help them figure out how to separate fact from fiction. We're here to help you do just that!
Don't wait for your kids to approach you with questions-instead, take a few minutes to sit down with them. Let them know that there's a lot of content out there on the Internet, and not all of it is true. With everything going on in the world, remind your kids that they might be seeing a lot of confusing, false information going around on social media and other parts of the web.
It's a good idea to turn news reports and TV shows into teachable moments. Look for small opportunities to start helpful conversations about misinformation with your kids. Take a TV show or newspaper article and transform it into a helpful, easy way to understand what misinformation is and how to avoid it.
Misinformation can be really upsetting and stressful for your kids to think about. Let them know that you're always available to listen and answer their questions if they're feeling confused. Reassure your kids that there are no stupid questions, and that you're always willing to explain something to them.
Teach your kids a few tricks to fact-check misinformation online. Remind your kids to be on the lookout for strange-looking website like those ending with co. Tell them to read through the headline. If it has a lot of mistakes, or if it's written in all capital (大写的) letters, there's a good chance that it might be misinformation. Additionally, introduce your kids to official websites, which are quick and easy ways to fact-check information.
28. Why should people talk to their children about online misinformation
A. There is no information holding true online.
B. There is no one else willing to teach the children.
C. Children lack the ability to judge the information sometimes.
D. Children can't develop the judgment on their own.
29. Why does the author mention the approach in paragraph 4
A. To relieve children's financial burden.
B. To discourage children from asking stupid questions.
C. To remind parents to seize every chance to teach.
D. To encourage children to communicate with parents.
30. Which of the following is most likely to be misinformation
A. A passage on the website www..
B. A passage on the website www..cn.
C. A passage titled with "Origins of the Mandela Effect".
D. A passage titled with "SHOK! GAS RAN OUT YESTERDAY".
31. Who is the text intended for
A. Parents. B. Teenagers. C. Students. D. Teachers.
D
Wildfires have recently seriously destroyed areas across the world. Hoping to reduce harm, researchers led by Yapei Wang, a chemist at Renmin University of China, say they have developed a sensor to detect (检测) such wildfires earlier and with less effort.
Present detection methods rely heavily on human watchfulness (警觉性), which can delay an effective response. The team says its new sensor can be placed near tree trunks' bases and send a wireless signal to a nearby receiver if there is a sharp temperature increase. That heat also powers the sensor itself, with no need to replace batteries. The sudden temperature change will give off electrons (电子) to move within the liquids, creating electrical energy to send the signal.
McCarty, a geographer at Miami University says places such as San Diego-where wild land and city meet-could benefit from sensors like this. When a fire breaks out in a valley that extends to someone's property, she says, with such a device, "As a homeowner, you will know it earlier than the fire agency." And she adds that it is even more important to improve cooperation among the different agencies involved in firefighting.
Wang says his team's next steps are to extend the device's signal range beyond the present 100 meters, which can limit its practical use, and to develop a protective cover for it. The sensor's effectiveness, Wang notes, will also need to be tested in the field.
32. What can we learn about the new sensor
A. It replaces batteries itself. B. It produces response more easily.
C. It depends on human observation. D. It sends a wireless signal continuously.
33. What's McCarty's attitude towards the new sensor
A. Cautious. B. Ambiguous. C. Supportive. D. Indifferent.
34. What will the author most probably talk about next
A. How people use the new sensor. B. How much the new sensor costs.
C. How the new sensor comes into effect. D. How Wang's team better the new sensor.
35. What's the best title for the text
A. A Research into Wildfires B. A Widely Accepted New Sensor
C. A New Senor to Detect Wildfires D. Different Opinions on a New Sensor

67. 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
We moved to a small seaside community in New Zealand 10 years ago, because my husband Phil worked as a biologist and he had to do research near the sea. I had seen seals (海豹) around Pilot Bay, which is near here. Sometimes I see them out on the rocks, sunning themselves or playing-but usually in their own territory (领地). They never thought about disturbing their neighbors.
It was a dark winter morning in August this year when a seal came. At 5:50 a.m., I left the house to go fitness training. I went down to the car parked in the driveway and heard a growl (咆哮). I thought our cat, Coco, must have chased a dog under the car. I jumped into the car to avoid getting my ankles bitten, and moved slowly, but then I felt the car hit something. When I got out to have a look, I couldn't see anything and thought it must have moved on. Then when I got back into my seat, I saw a baby seal in the headlights.
I thought, "Oh, my God." However, I didn't panic-the ocean is just down the driveway and I thought it would find its way back. Off I went to the training center and gave everyone there a laugh when I said, "Sorry I'm late; there was a seal under the car." I didn't think about it again until I got home. As I walked through the garage (车库), I noticed our baskets had been moved. I wondered if it was the seal, but then I guessed it could not be the seal because I didn't think it could fit through the cat door, which was the only way into the garage. But I was wrong. As I opened the door to the house, I brushed something and heard this flip-flip-flip-flip sound, and thought, "My God, that is the seal."

【67. 写作二参考答案】
It was so cute like a lovely soft toy. It had watery eyes and looked at me like a child, which made me desperate to long to keep it secretly. But I thought, "It was a wild animal and it should be back to its home, because wild animals belong to the wild." With a deep sigh, I phoned Phil, who was on his way home from a work trip. "Wild animals should be protected but you probably never know how sharp their teeth are," he warned me on the phone. On Phil's arriving home, we immediately looked for the contact information.
We called Animal Protection Station, and a worker came over. It was sad to see the little lovely wild creature wrapped up in a net to be taken away, but the worker said, "It would be released into the sea after being checked." Hearing this, I felt a great relief lifted from my inner heart. Experiencing this fortuitous encounter with the seal reminded me that we should help raise the awareness of protecting seals. Therefore, I, together with Phil, posted the photos on the social media and it snowballed. For us, it was pretty good to see so many people care for our lovely wild neighbors: seals.

It was so cute like a lovely soft toy. It had watery eyes and looked at me like a child, which made me desperate to long to keep it secretly. But I thought, "It was a wild animal and it should be back to its home, because wild animals belong to the wild." With a deep sigh, I phoned Phil, who was on his way home from a work trip. "Wild animals should be protected but you probably never know how sharp their teeth are," he warned me on the phone. On Phil's arriving home, we immediately looked for the contact information.
We called Animal Protection Station, and a worker came over. It was sad to see the little lovely wild creature wrapped up in a net to be taken away, but the worker said, "It would be released into the sea after being checked." Hearing this, I felt a great relief lifted from my inner heart. Experiencing this fortuitous encounter with the seal reminded me that we should help raise the awareness of protecting seals. Therefore, I, together with Phil, posted the photos on the social media and it snowballed. For us, it was pretty good to see so many people care for our lovely wild neighbors: seals.
