（ 8 分） Wuyi Rock Tea is a kind of Oolong tea.It got its name from the place where it's produced ﹣ Wuyi Mountain in Fujian Province.The tea trees usually grow on rock cracks（缝隙）.The traditional home of Rock

Tea is only from a small area in the mountain.Wuyi Rock Tea is famous for its rich smell and good flavour.There are different kinds.The best is Dahongpao.
With its long history，Wuyi Rock Tea dates back to the Shang Dynasty.People used to send it to the emperor

as a tribut（e 贡品）.In 2006，the skills of making Wuyi Rock Tea were added to China's national intangible cultural

heritage list.

Zhang Huichun，65，is a master of making Wuyi Rock Tea.In 1980，he learned to make the tea and opened a tea factory.To his surprise，the skills were very complex.After 10 years of learning，he could finally make the tea
by himself.Zhang said there were 13 steps to make it，including drying，shaking and roasting （焙火）.The most challenging for him is shaking.It takes strength and patience to shake the tea leaves by holding the round bamboo trays. "You have to decide when the best time is to stop based on the color，" Zhang said. "Sometimes you stop after shaking dozens of （几+） times，while sometimes it can be hundreds of times.Only years of experience can help you figure it out（弄明白）."
The last step ﹣ roasting ﹣ is also important.With three stages，it usually takes more than 20 hours!Each

stage needs temperatures from 125℃ to 155℃.Tea makers have to keep a close eye on the process.Every 50 minutes，you have to turn over the leaves，or it might burn，" Zhang said.
Zhang is already a master， but he is still learning. "The most fascinating part is that every step is full of

changes ﹣ different tea trees，weather and temperatures.Every time is an adventure."

In recent years，Zhang has often worked with schools to train tea makers."It's my responsibility to pass on the traditional skills，" he said.

（8 分）The Mayan number system appeared in the fourth century，which was about 1，000 years earlier than the time when the European number system was created. It is different from the Arabic number system with a base
10.The Mayan system had a base 20.This system is believed to have been used because the Mayans lived in such a warm area and there was hardly a need to wear shoes，20 was the total number of fingers and toes，so the system was workable.Therefore，there were two important numbers in this system.Besides 20，the other important number is 5，which had a connection with the number of fingers and toes on one hand or foot.
The Mayan system used two symbols（符号）A dot （.）was used to mean the units（one to four）and a dash

（—）meant five.The Mayans were also the first to create symbols of nothing（or zero）.The most common symbol was that of a shell（ ）but there were several other symbols（e.g.ahead）.It is interesting to learn that with all of the great experts on Maths and scientists in ancient Greece and Rome，it was the Mayan Indians who came up with this symbol zero or nothing.Picture 1 is a form of different numbers and how they would have been written.
From further study，people found that the 360 day calendar（日历）also came from the Mayan.They actually used base 18 when they made the calendar.Each month included 20 days with 18 months in a year.This left five days at the end of the year which was month in itself，full of danger and bad luck.In this way，the Mayans had invented the 365 day calendar.
