Our trip to China felt like a fantasy movie. I had read comments (评论) online about trips to China before, yet our experience still surprised me.
Our first big surprise happened in Suzhou. Many people call Suzhou the "Venice (威尼斯) of the East," so I pictured a small town with quiet canals (河道). As soon as we stepped out of the railway station, we were shocked (震惊的). Suzhou was so huge and modern! Tall glass buildings stood beside old waterways and wooden boats. It felt strange to see both a "village" and a "city" in one place. This contrast made us look at the city with fresh eyes.
Later, we saw an even stronger contrast in Beijing. The hutongs showed the traditional side of the city. These narrow alleys (小巷) were crowded and full of life. A short walk away, modern skyscrapers (摩天大楼) rose into the sky. People say many hutongs are disappearing each year. How lucky we were to visit them!
After these surprises, we faced a problem: the language barrier (障碍). Simple words like "toilet" or "passport" were not always understood. Translation apps became our closest friends. They helped most of the time, though sometimes the results were funny.
Still, we met people who spoke English well in the most unexpected moments. A stranger at the Summer Palace helped us during heavy rain. A young man in an Apple Store in Shanghai sounded like a native speaker (母语者). Sometimes, we almost forgot we were abroad. These moments showed a friendly side of China.
In the end, this trip gave us many stories to remember. We enjoyed every moment and we really can't wait to go back to China.
34. What did the writer think Suzhou would be like
A. A city that seemed similar to Beijing. B. A busy town with many tourists.
C. A large city filled with modern buildings. D. A small town with quiet canals.
35. Why did the writer think the visit to the hutongs was "lucky"
A. They are disappearing year by year. B. They are less famous than the skyscrapers.
C. The alleys showed the lively traditional life. D. It is not easy to visit hutongs in modern Beijing.
36. What does the writer think of the whole journey
A. It was exciting but tiring. B. It helped him see China in a new way.
C. It was fantastic but completely as hoped. D. It was difficult because of the language problem.
C
Do you have a "meal buddy" for trying out new hotpot places, or a "study buddy" to help you focus at the library In China, this trend has a special name: "Dazi." The term, which means "buddy" or "partner," has become popular among young people, especially in busy cities. It describes a simple kind of friendship, where people connect through shared interests.
So, why is everyone looking for a "dazi" One of the main reasons is efficiency (效率). "I used to cancel (取消) trips because my friends were busy," says Ye, a hiking lover. "Now, with a 'dazi,' everything is set from the start. We meet at the starting point, share some snacks, and hike together. No extra coordination (协商) is needed."
In addition, "dazi" culture helps young people manage their social (社交的) energy. They can enjoy being with someone without a deep, heavy relationship. While traditional friendships are like gardening, requiring time and care, a "dazi" comes with no pressure to stay in touch or solve each other's life problems. Partners enjoy the time together, and then simply return to their own lives.
However, some people worry that "dazi" culture might lead to the "McDonaldization" of relationships. If young people only look for "dazi," they might forget how to build long-lasting deep friendships. Also, meeting strangers can be unsafe.
Besides these worries, many young people still like dazi. "It's not about replacing (取代) best friends," explains Chen, a young woman working in Shenzhen. "A buddy is more like a fellow traveler (同路人) on life's journey. 'Dazi' brings simple joy without stress (压力)." To stay safe, she always meets her "dazi" in public places and tells her parents where she's going. For her and many others, a "dazi" is only a way to make a busy life a little more social and a lot more fun.
37. Ye prefers a hiking "dazi" to going with old friends because ______.
A. a dazi may have more hiking experience B. they can help organize the trip more easily
C. she doesn't need to match everyone's plan D. it helps her save money on snacks and transportation
38. According to the article, the "McDonaldization" (Para. 4) of relationship most likely refers to ______.
A. popular and deep friendships B. fast and casual friendships
C. making friends in restaurants D. eating fast food with friends
39. What would be the best title of this passage
A. Dazi Culture: Sharing Snacks, Not Secrets B. Dazi Culture: A New Rule for Public Safety
C. Dazi Culture: A Popular Choice Among Old People D. Dazi Culture: The Best Way to Make Lifelong Friends
D
Scene 1: A classroom. Leo shows Mia his tablet (平板电脑). Jordan sits nearby. Jordan's notebook is open. In the center, a hero's outline is drawn, cleaned, and redrawn.
LEO: (excitedly) Mia, look! I made the AR glasses show a dragon in the classroom.
MIA: Wow, Leo! That's cool, but our project is about "Growing Up". How does a dragon help
LEO: It's a metaphor (隐喻)! The dragon represents… uh… the challenges we face as we grow. And we can make it part of our film!
MIA: Hmm… maybe. But I think we need something more connected. Like a story about real kids.
(Jordan looks up from his notebook, then down at his own drawing of the hero. He takes a quiet breath.)
JORDAN: Excuse me…I have an idea. (Leo and Mia turn to Jordan.) What if we tell a story about a kid who feels invisible Like, in the real world, they're shy and unseen, but in the AR world, they become a hero
LEO: Awesome! We can use AR to show the transformation (转换)!
MIA: And we can use music to set the mood. Like, when the character puts on the AR glasses, the music becomes big and exciting.
TEACHER: (coming close) How's the project coming along
MIA: Great, Ms. Garcia! We're mixing AR, film, and music to tell a story about growing up and finding voice.
TEACHER: Excellent! Remember, the fair is next week. You'll need to work together.
LEO: We will! Jordan, you lead story and art. Mia deals with film and music. I'll do technology. Teamwork!
JORDAN: (growing in confidence) And we'll call it… "The Augmented Reality (AR) of Us".
MIA: Perfect! Because it's about all of us growing up in a digital world.
Scene 2: One week later, at the school project fair.
LEO: (to the audience (观众)) Welcome to our project! Put on these AR glasses.
MIA: (music begins) And…action!
JORDAN: (narrating) This is the story of Alex, a kid who felt overlooked…until he discovered a world where he could be anything. (Through the AR glasses, the audience sees a shy kid change into a shining hero.)
MIA: (The music changes from lonely piano to an exciting piece when Alex becomes a hero.)
LEO: (smiling at Jordan) See Your idea was great. Now everyone can see how amazing you are.
JORDAN: Thanks. I guess growing up is about finding your own superpower.
MIA: And sharing it with the world.
TEACHER: Well done, team. You've shown that technology and art can help us understand ourselves better.

八、阅读表达(共3小题;54题1分,55题2分,56题3分,满分6分)
For me, spring break is more than a great holiday. It is also a chance to return to my hometown, Ningbo. But this year, I found a new side of it.
It all started when my father suggested going for a drive. Without a plan, we set off for a little adventure.
As we drove out of Suzhou, the city's tall buildings slowly gave way to golden fields. After we drove further for about three hours, small villages began to appear.
"We're in Ningbo now," Dad said. Soon, we were driving up a winding mountain road near an old temple. At first, there were only trees. But as we climbed higher, an amazing view opened up: a green lake shining under the blue sky, with high mountains in the distance (在远处).
I was lost in the beauty of nature when I suddenly noticed a coffee shop on the roadside. A red national flag was flying in the wind in front of the shop. The shop was full of fashionable young people. It turned out that we were in a village. It wasn't quiet or old-fashioned. Instead, I saw freshly-painted houses next to traditional tile-roofed ones (瓦房). The elderly chatted at their doorsteps while young visitors enjoyed their holiday. The mix was lively and beautiful.
We drove even higher, where wildflowers lined the road. After we parked and walked a bit, a huge wind turbine (风力发电机) came into view. I stood under the blades (叶片) and watched them spinning (旋转) in the wind. I looked further and saw rows of such turbines. The view was powerful beyond words.
That day, I saw the true face of my hometown: ancient yet new, peaceful yet strong.
61. Which city did the writer go to during spring break
62. What does the writer think of her hometown after the trip
63. What great change has taken place in your hometown How has it influenced your life (Within 20 words)
