In recent years, some comics have become increasingly popular in China. Among them, those covering science, history, psychology(心理学) and traditional Chinese culture have developed the largest following. These comics are not only funny but also helpful to people’s lives.
One great example is the Half-An-Hour Comics series. It was created by Chen Lei, whose pen name is Erhunzi. While working as a car designer in Shanghai, Chen began creating comics filled with jokes and creative metaphors (比喻) based on historical facts.
For example, when explaining the seven states during the Warring States period, he compared them to seven students in a class. One student, Qin, was so strong that he looked down on the others, and the other six teamed up against him.
Interestingly, these comics were first made for adults, but they quickly became popular with students. History may seem challenging or boring to many children, but Chen’s humorous method makes it much easier to understand. Now his series has grown to 47 volumes (册), with over 20 million copies sold so far.
Another popular style is “healing (治愈) comics”. Unlike long, complex stories, these are short, warm, and funny tales about everyday life.
One example is Oysters With Shells Are Grownups’ Hearts by Wang Manni. Using bright colours, it tells 17 stories about love, dreams, and courage. These stories offer comfort to readers and help them find strength to face life’s ups and downs.
While these comics are well-loved, they don’t always sell as well as expected. Most comic book writers stay in this field out of love. Creating these comics is difficult and costly. But with so many talented artists creating wonderful works, it is believed that these meaningful comics will have a bright future in China.
( ) 19. How did Chen Lei explain the states in the Warring States period
A. By drawing maps. B. By collecting facts.
C. By making comparisons. D. By showing real photos.
( ) 20. Why did Chen’s comics become popular with children
A. Because they were cheap.
B. Because they made history fun to learn.
C. Because they had many colourful pictures.
D. Because they were highly recommended by teachers.
( ) 21. What do we know about “healing comics”
A. They talk about difficult science topics.
B. They use more black and white colours.
C. They are not suitable for children to read.
D. They might support people through difficulties.
( ) 22.What’s the author’s purpose in writing this text
A. To introduce popular comics in China.
B. To share some talented comic book artists.
C. To tell people the history of Chinese comics.
D. To encourage people to create their own comics.
C
Staying safe online is important. But a lot of us are making mistakes with the passwords we use for our different accounts. Password manager company Bitwarden found that a quarter of people use the same password for at least 11sites or apps. And more than one-third of us use personal information in our passwords.
Personal information isn't a good idea to use, because it's quite easy for others to find it out.
But here's something else that isn't a good idea: using the name of your favorite famous person, band, singer or superhero!
A company called Mailsuite has been looking at the most dangerous pop culture passwords you can use online.
Mailsuite made a list of more than 2,600 pop culture terms and almost 64,000 different ways of writing them.
It then looked at something called the Pwned Passwords database(数据库),which gives information about hundreds of millions of passwords that have been exposed in online data breaches(数据泄露).
The pop culture password that came up most was" Superman". It appeared in almost 585, 000 data breaches.In second place was the US band Blink-182. Used as a password, it appeared in more than 482,000 data breaches.
"Batman" "Star Wars" and "Eminem" were also in the top five.
Bitwarden says you should choose a long password that includes letters, numbers and symbols.
You should also have a different password for each app you use. Sites like Bitwarden also let you check how strong a password is before you choose it.
( )23. What do the first two paragraphs mainly tell us
A. Many people are making mistakes in using passwords.
B. Going online too often is dangerous for many people.
C. It is very dangerous for us to use the same password.
D. It is the most important thing for us to stay safe online.
( )24. What is the rule for choosing a password
A. Use the same password for each app you use.
B. Use the passwords that you can remember forever.
C. Use the name of someone, band,singer or superhero.
D. Use a long password that includes letters, numbers and symbols.
( )25. What are the main writing skills used in this passage
① Taking examples. ② Listing numbers.
③ Telling stories. ④ Making comparison.
A.①②③ B.②③④ C.①②④ D.①③④
( )26. What is the best title for the passage
A. The safety on surfing online must be cared
B. The worst online passwords are discovered
C. It's hard to keep away from simple passwords
D. It's important for us to choose right passwords

72 Changes
④The Monkey King learned “72 Changes” from his master. He can turn into a bird, a tree, or even a temple! Now, we use “72 Changes” to talk about someone who can fit in well to different situations. For example, my friend is great at sports. On the basketball court, he’s a star. In the art class, he draws amazing pictures. He’s like having “72 Changes”!
Riding the Clouds and Driving the Mist
⑤In Journey to the West, Wukong has a magic cloud called Jindouyun. With it, he can do a huge flying jump and travel far quickly. This phrase first described magic flying. Now, it means moving very fast.

Everybody Dance is an award-winning film that follows a group of dancers as they take ballet (芭蕾舞) classes and prepare for a big dance show. What makes their story special is that they are a part of Ballet for All Kids, a dance program for kids with physical disabilities.
Dan Watt, once a dancer, a dance teacher, directed (导演) Everybody Dance. Through the film, he wanted to show “arts are for everyone” or “everyone can learn something”.

It was founded by Bonnie Schlachte, who created teaching ways for kids with different learning styles or physical differences.
