Wuhan Hot Dry Noodles Wuhan’s favorite breakfast is hot dry noodles! First, we cook the noodles and mix them with a little oil to cool down. When we eat it, we add delicious sauce, small pieces of carrot and beans. Every bite is delicious—the noodles are chewy, and the sauce smells great. Have a bowl with a cup of bean milk, and you’ll feel good all morning!
Xiangyang Beef Noodles Xiangyang Beef Noodles are the “breakfast king” here! The hot soup smells pleasant. We put the nice noodles into the soup, then add soft beef pieces and fresh cilantro (香菜). It’s not too spicy, just right for most people. Many local people eat it every morning—it’s a tasty start to the day!
Yichang Liangxia Yichang’s Liangxia is a great summer snack—it’s not real shrimp (虾)! We pour the rice paste (糊状物) into cold water, and it becomes small “shrimp-shaped” pieces. Then we add some sweet sugar water. It’s cool and perfect for hot days. One bite, and you’ll feel refreshed right away!
Jingzhou Fish Cake Jingzhou Fish Cake is a special snack for festivals! We make it with fresh fish and meat, then cook it slowly. It’s soft and delicious—you can eat it as a snack, or put it in soup. Local families love to make it for big days, and it’s always a hit with kids!

①Imagine drinking warm water instead of cold soda, cooking a pot of pear soup on a lazy evening, or doing baduanjin (八段锦) to start your day. These are not only Chinese habits now. Fun TikTok videos with words like “Tomorrow, you’re becoming Chinese!” have started a world-wide popular activity, making “Becoming Chinese” a hot topic on social media. From New York to London, foreigners are sharing their “Chinese-style days”, showing that you don’t need to change your nationality (国籍) to love Chinese daily life.
②Why do these habits attract so many foreigners For most people, it is because they are good for health and easy to do. Unlike expensive gym cards or expensive health products, Chinese daily habits are cheap and easy to learn. “Warm water calms my stomach much better than cold drinks,” a US life blogger said. Another user said that 10 minutes of baduanjin every day has fixed her long-term sleep problems. These small changes fit people’s wish for a slower, healthier lifestyle—no wonder these habits became popular!
③Another two main reasons make this trend (潮流) grow: rules and technology. China has made visiting easier by making the transit visa-free (过境免签) time longer from 144 to 240 hours for travelers from 55 countries. Foreign visitors have taken this chance to walk on city streets, try local food, and share their trips online. Also, translation tools and social media let these daily moments spread fast—even if you don’t speak Chinese, you can easily follow a porridge recipe (食谱) or baduanjin guide and join the fun.
④This trend is not only about habits, it is also about seeing China beyond kung fu, pandas and old palaces. As friends from all over the world enjoy warm daily joys like ginger (姜) tea, porridge and baduanjin to relax, it shows that Chinese culture is not only for watching but also for living and enjoying. With easier travel rules and better translation tools, more people will find its beauty. The popularity of “Becoming Chinese” is not a short-lived thing—it is a nice start to closer cultural ties around the world.
21. What does the phrase “Becoming Chinese” mean in Paragraph 1
A．Moving and living in China for a long time.
B．Learning to post a video on TikTok in Chinese.
C．Changing nationality to enjoy Chinese daily life.
D．Following Chinese daily habits for a healthier lifestyle.
22. What is NOT the reason for the popularity of Chinese daily habits
A．They are healthy and easy to follow.
B．The longer transit visa-free time attracts visitors.
C．Translation tools speed up their spread.
D．They have a long history of thousands of years.
23. What is the author’s attitude towards the popularity of “Becoming Chinese”
A．Worried.
B．Objective (客观的).
C．Positive.
D．Doubtful.
24. What is the main purpose of the last paragraph
A．To list more examples of Chinese daily habits.
B．To warn readers the popularity will not last long.
C．To explain the cultural meaning behind the popularity.
D．To compare Chinese culture with other countries’ cultures.
25. What is the structure of the text
C
Have you ever dreamed of having a smart helper inside your computer Now, a new kind of AI “assistant (助手)” called OpenClaw is making this dream come true. It is not a physical robot but an intelligent program. Because its logo looks like a cute little lobster (龙虾), many young people enjoy “raising a lobster” on their computers.
Unlike common chat apps that can only chat with you, OpenClaw can actually do things on your computer. You just tell it what you need. For example, as a student, you can say, “Find all my English homework in the download folder (文件夹), put them into a new folder called ‘English Project’, and send them to my teacher by email.” Amazingly, OpenClaw will finish the job step by step, just like a real person!
OpenClaw has become very popular at schools in China. Many students use it to organize their study materials, make notes, and even help with group projects. It can work 24 hours a day, remember your study habits, and help with school tasks. Some teachers are even using it to help manage homework. This makes study and work much faster and saves a lot of time and energy.
However, each coin has two sides. There are some dangers. Because OpenClaw can control your computer, it might be dangerous if we don’t use it carefully. Sometimes, it could follow a wrong order and delete important homework files by accident. Bad people might also use it to get others’ personal information.
Experts advised us to use OpenClaw wisely. The writer uses a comparison to explain this: just like a pair of scissors, it is helpful in your right hand but might hurt you in your left one. So, before we start “raising a lobster”, we must learn how to keep it safe and under our control. After all, this clever “lobster” is here to help us, not to take the place of our own smart thinking.
26. How does the writer start the passage
A．By asking a question.
B．By describing a scene.
C．By explaining a word.
D．By sharing the writer’s opinion.
27. What is OpenClaw according to the passage
A．A smart computer program.
B．A new chatting app for fun.
C．A kind of seafood like a lobster.
D．A physical robot helper at home.
28. what is the writer’s purpose of writing Paragraph 3
A．To suggest that OpenClaw is only helpful for schoolwork.
B．To show how students have changed their learning ways.
C．To explain why teachers are better at using new technology.
D．To show that OpenClaw is widely used among students and teachers.
29. What is the best title for the passage
A．How to Use Your New AI Assistant.
B．The History and Future of OpenClaw.
C．OpenClaw: Your Smart computer Helper.
D．Why a “Lobster” is Taking Over Our Study.
30. Imagine your classmate wants to use OpenClaw to help with homework. According to the passage, what advice would you give him/her
A．Let it “run” on your computer. Don’t worry. It’s safe.
B．Don’t use it at all because it will surely delete all your homework.
C．Be careful. Use it for simple tasks but always check its work.
D．Great idea! Let it do all your homework and enjoy more game time.

The Yangtze River is one of the most important rivers in China. It is the longest river in Asia and the third longest river in the world. It is about 6,300 kilometers long and covers an area of about 1.8 million square kilometers.
