Everyone deserves to love where he or she lives. That's why Tash Frootko, a property developer in Gloucester, England, began the Rainbow Street project in her quiet town four years ago.
Frootko brought a new life to her properties by brightening the outside of each home, transforming her neighborhood into a colorful place. Now, she is partnering with local street artists to take her project a step further and turn Gloucester’s city center into a Rainbow Square.
“We didn't get recognition from local people at first. But later, an unexpected outcome happened," said Frootko.
“It has brought the community together really well,”Michelle, a local citizen said. “If it hadn’t been for Frootko, then none of us would have come out and spoken to each other.”
“I actively seek out areas that can't receive enough attention and turn them into huge attractive colors for everyone to enjoy and add a much-needed cultural boost for the city,” Frootko said.
The new Rainbow Square includes an even more special design. Frootko convinced two street artists to get on board and contribute large murals to two buildings on the Square. Power, a street artist and printmaker, has worked on community art projects across the UK. She said,“This was truly a labour of love. With a uniquely designed typeface, shadows and gold leaf, I hope that this mural becomes a much-loved landmark of the city and makes the city attractive.”
The final result of the project was a huge hit, turning a once sleepy collection of streets into a place that celebrates joy and culture. Every local citizen and visitor who walks by is sure to have their day brightened by the art of the Rainbow Square. And all of this is related to Frootko’s strong willpower.
24. Why did Frootko set up the Rainbow Street project
A. To find talented street artists.
B. To brighten everyone’s day.
C. To beautify where she lived.
D. To make a profit for her company.
25. What is the local people's attitude to Frootko’s Rainbow Square at first
A. Supportive. B. Doubtful
C. Cautious. D. Tolerant.
26. What does Power think of the mural on the Rainbow Square
A. It helps improve her skills.
B. It is fit to promote culture.
C. It shows her talent for art.
D. It adds to Gloucester’s tidiness.
27. Which word can best describe Frootko
A. Determined. B. Courageous.
C. Humorous. D. Generous.

Port Lympne Reserve (保护区), which runs a breeding (繁育) programme, has welcomed the arrival of an uncommon black rhino calf (犀牛幼崽). When the tiny creature arrived on January 31, she became the 40th black rhino to be born at the reserve. And officials at Port Lympne were delighted with the new arrival, especially as black rhinos are known for being difficult to breed.
Paul Beer, head of rhino section at Port Lympne, said, “Obviously we’re all absolutely delighted to welcome another calf to our black rhino family. She’s healthy, strong and already excited to play and explore. Her mother, Solio, is a first-time mum and she is doing a fantastic job. It’s still a little too cold for them to go out into the open, but as soon as the weather warms up, I have no doubt that the little one will be out and about exploring and playing every day.”
The adorable female calf is the second black rhino born this year at the reserve, but it is too early to tell if the calves will make good candidates to be returned to protected areas of the wild. The first rhino to be born at Port Lympne arrived on January 5 to first-time mother Kisima and weighed about 32kg. His mother, grandmother and great grandmother were all born at the reserve and still live there.
According to the World Wildlife Fund, the global black rhino population has dropped as low as 5500, giving the rhinos a “critically endangered” status.
28. What does Paul Beer say about the new-born rhino
A. She is in good condition. B. She dislikes outdoor activities.
C. She loves staying with her mother. D. She is afraid of hot weather.
29. What similar experience do Solio and Kisima have
A. They enjoyed exploring new places.
B. They lived with their grandmothers.
C. They had their first baby born in January.
D. They were brought to the reserve young.
30. What can be inferred about Port Lympne Reserve
A.The rhino section will be open to the public.
B. It aims to control the number of the animals.
C. It will continue to work with the World Wildlife Fund.
D. Some of its rhinos may be sent to protected wild areas.
31. What is the article mainly about
A. A black rhino family. B. A breeding programme.
C. The rhinos in danger. D. A new arrival at Port Lympne.
D
Going against the tide of flocking (蜂拥) to well-known yet generally jam-packed tourist destinations on vacation, a growing number of holidaymakers in China tend to spend their leisure time at lesser known resorts to seek unique, relaxed holiday experiences. Reverse Tourism （反向旅游） has emerged as a new trend among young holidaymakers in China.
Besides crowds, some vacationers chose less-traveled places to save on the cost of trips to popular destinations, which often require pricey tickets, meals and hotel stays. “Tourism used to be about sightseeing. Now it is about experiences,” said Dai Bin, president of the China Tourism Academy. He said popular tourist spots are always packed and often raise their prices during holidays. As people become more mature travelers, they are increasingly unwilling to follow the herd. Some of them are simply looking to take a rest somewhere quiet for a couple of days, which is a good way to vacation.
In addition, lesser-known attractions are not as “commercial” and “standardized” as developed ones and are able to offer more genuine experiences and natural encounters, according to social media posts. And unlike popular destinations, some under-explored places with little online exposure can offer more surprises. COVID-19 is another key factor fueling Reverse Tourism. As precautionary measures continue, traveling has an unpredictable quality. A traveler has no way of knowing what lies ahead before departure, be it a perfect holiday or one interrupted by a sudden outbreak.
“The rise of Reverse Tourism is not a bad thing,” said an opinion piece in Zhengzhou Daily. It means that vacationers now have more options, which brings more possibilities to the tourism market, the article explains. More importantly, the trend is set to force popular destinations to improve themselves instead of resting on their achievements, it noted.
What is the feature of Reverse Tourism according to the passage
Less-traveled places offer less attractive sightseeing.
Lesser known resorts often raise their prices during holidays.
Popular destinations are not welcomed by people nowadays.
Less-traveled places are increasingly valued among young holidaymakers.
33. Which of the following factors doesn’t contribute to the rise of reverse tourism
A. Tourists spend less than usual.
B. It has already been commercialized.
C. COVID-19 makes tourists more cautious.
D. Tourists can get a better sense of experience.
34. Why do people choose lesser-known attractions according to social media posts
A. To create surprises on their own. B. To escape the uncertainty in life.
C. To promote the local tourism. D. To explore the original beauty.
35. What is the text mainly about
A. The promising future of Nature tourism.
B. The challenges popular tourist spots are facing.
C. The reason why people prefer Reverse Tourism.
D. The way to explore the lesser-known attractions.

Does life seem to be full of impossible problems How many times do you find yourself saying things like “I really don't understand this maths problem” Maybe it’s time to introduce yourself to the 41 of “yet”. By adding this simple word, you can change everything, “ I really don’t understand this maths problem yet.” Suddenly, the 42 becomes possible.
I read about a school that has 43 the way it evaluates its students' exams. The school recognized that the old pass/fail system wasn't helping students’ 44 . If you passed, then great, but those students who didn't pass often felt like 45 . So now students who don't get the 46 they need to pass, don’t see a big red “F” for “fail” on their exam papers; 47 they see a“Not yet”. That way the students feel that they are on a journey. They haven't reached the 48 , but they know that they are going the right way.
This kind of 49 is part of what experts call “having a growth mindset”. People with a growth mindset don't 50 failure. They aren't worried by not getting things right the first time and are 51 to keep trying until they do. They enjoy the 52 and believe they can change. 53 , people who just focus on failure have what the experts call “a fixed mindset”. These people are always worried about failure and are happy to 54 when things don’t go right. 55 , it is better to have a growth mindset than a fixed mindset.

It was a hot day in the middle of July. I decided to walk to the neighborhood store where it sold my favorite thing, ice cream. I pulled a friend towards the ice cream store, almost passing out from the burning sun on the way.
As we walked on, my friend kept saying that it was too hot. She thought that she was stupid to decide to come with me to buy ice cream. I felt sorry and tried to encourage her. “We're almost there. Just think of the cool and sweet taste of ice cream in your mouth. It'll be worth the walk," I told her. But I had to admit that the store was quite a distance from our houses. During the journey, my mouth began to become dry and I wanted to drink.
When we were about a block away from the store, I noticed an old lady who was walking in our direction. She was about 70 years old. She had a big back problem, so she was unable to keep her back straight. She was struggling, pushing a shopping cart (购物车）full of things like the soap, bread and water. With each step towards her, we began to see her appearance more clearly. It appeared that she was often unhappy and easy to get angry.
I looked at my friend to see if she had noticed her. I could see that she had and that she disliked the old lady due to the lady's appearance. As we approached the lady pushing the shopping cart, my friend directed me away from the old lady and the cart.
I began to observe other passers-by. They were also trying to avoid her, Suddenly I heard a terrible sound behind me. I quickly turned around to see what it was, I found the lady's cart had been knocked over by something on the ground.

Dear Mike,
Thanks for inviting me to have dinner with you at the new restaurant this Saturday night. I'd love to go, but I can't, because I have promised to go back to my hometown with my parents to visit my grandparents this Friday, and I will stay there until this Sunday evening. I am terribly sorry for not being able to go with you. My grandparents have raised many ducks, and I'll bring some duck eggs to you when I come back.
I really hope I will have another chance to have dinner with you.
Yours, Li Hua
