Li Chunlin is a farmer who used to live in a poor village in the north of Shanxi Province. In the 1980s, he went to Shenzhen to make a living with his wife.
Years later, they became rich and returned to their hometown. To their surprise, the land around the village was covered with sand. That made them feel sad. After thinking carefully, Li and his wife made up their minds to fight against the sand.
They bought thousands of young trees and planted them around the village. However, only a few survived (活下来），because the trees were not regularly watered. But how to get water was a big problem. They dug a well (井）but it became dry soon. Then they asked a drilling (钻孔）team to dig a deep well. Clear water appeared, but their money was used up. They couldn’t afford to buy young trees. They went to several banks for help but got nothing. Finally they turned to a friend who was also from the village for help. The friend had a big business. Learning what they were doing, their friend was moved and decided to do something for their village too. So he offered the money they needed.
With the money, they bought trees and had them planted. They looked after the trees as if they were their own children. After some time, green leaves came out. When the villagers saw the changes, some started to join Li and his wife in the fight.

Living in a new country gave me many surprises. The first surprise was the way that the US people speak.
One day I saw someone having a public speech in a square. I thought it would be a serious speech. But I soon found that it was a kind of entertainment (娱乐) show.
The speaker told the audience to protect the environment with humorous words. Later he said some people’s behavior didn’t go with their words. He took the example of Taylor Swift’s song We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together.
He said, “Since Swift doesn’t want to be with the boy any more, she doesn’t need to speak it aloud, and she doesn’t need to sing unless she still keeps in touch with that guy.”
Then he sang the song in a funny way. The audience laughed out loudly. I felt quite angry because Swift is my favourite star. I couldn’t understand why they laughed at Swift.
As time goes on, I find many US people make fun of others. But they don’t mean to hurt them. They do that to show closeness and humour. And people who are laughed at seldom get angry. Now l understand the speaker at the square. Now I’ve got used to the way the US people speak.
It’s easy to find culture shock when you’re in a new place. But everyone should learn to understand different cultures and customs.

()30. The public speech was held __________.
A. in a park B. in a square
C. in a hall D. in a classroom
()31. How did the writer feel after she listened to the speech?
A. Excited. B. Sad.
C. Mad. D. Disappointed.
()32. What does Paragraph 6 mainly want to tell us?
A. Many US people like to laugh at others.
B. Many US people are friendly and humorous.
C. The US people get angry at others easily.
D. The writer doesn’t like the way the US people speak.
()33. The passage is mainly about __________.
A. differences between the Chinese and the US people
B. in what way the US people speak in public
C. the way to get used to the life in the US
D. a girl’s culture shock experience in the US

Peonies (牡丹）are regarded as China’s national flower. In ancient times, people planted peonies because they stand for happiness I and good luck. Luoyang, Henan, and Heze, Shandong are famous for peonies. There are many kinds of peonies all around China now. The flower period often comes in April. Tourists all over the world come to these places to enjoy peonies every year.

Travel to Las Vegas (拉斯维加斯）and you’ll likely hear a lot about nearby attractions like the Grand Canyon, the Hoover Dam, and Lake Mead. These places are well worth seeing and are great ways to get away from the sights of Vegas. Besides these crowded tourist spots, there are also some not so well-known areas that are well worth your time, and they don’t cost much money.
Red Rock Canyon lies about 15 miles west of Las Vegas. It is just outside the city. When you first get to Red Rock Canyon, there is a visitors, center where you can check out some of the history of the canyon. You can learn about the Native Americans who first lived in the area, as well as the animals and plants in the canyon.
The canyon itself is made up of red sandstone which is very striking in colour when the Sun hits the canyon walls. There are many hiking routes that you can choose. They range (延伸)from easy to difficult. The canyon is also popular with rock climbers, who can often be seen in the area.
The greatest thing about Red Rock Canyon is that you can see the sights without ever leaving your car. Even though you are just outside Las Vegas, a trip to Red Rock Canyon is a great escape from the noise of the city.

Last year, I went to China for my holiday. One day, I noticed something strange at the dinner table. I was in a restaurant with my friends then, and beside us on another table, a group of four men were shouting at each other and waving their money around. In the end, I learnt that they were actually “fighting” to pay the bill!
This scene made me think of what it would look like in Britain. It would be almost unheard of (前所未闻的）.British food culture usually means that you pay for whatever you ordered. In a British restaurant, you’ll just pay for yourself. It’s called “splitting (分担）the bill”or“going Dutch”.
I guess there is one reason that could explain some of the differences between East and West. How you pay the bill depends on how you order, as well as how you eat. Usually in Chinese restaurants, the group decides on each dish, so the group eats all of the dishes. Can you imagine trying to work out how much each person needs to pay if you’re all sharing?
The opposite is true for western-style food. Each person chooses the food that he or she wants. Sharing isn’t commonly practised. So it’s simple to pay for what you ordered.
I personally enjoy both practices. It’s nice to treat your friends to dinner sometimes. And it’s nice to be treated. And on days when I miss western food, I know there will be no “fighting” over who should pay!
()42. The four men were shouting at each other in the first paragraph because ___________.
A. they wanted to order different food
B. each of them wanted to pay the bill
C. they didn’t agree with each other
D. some of them didn’t want to pay the bill
()43. The third paragraph mainly tells us ____
A. some differences of eating habits between East and West
B. some similarities of eating habits between East and West
C. “going Dutch” is popular in British restaurants
D. the reason why there are different paying habits between East and West
()44. What’s the writer’s attitude towards paying the bill?
A. He prefers “going Dutch”.
B. He prefers to treat his friends.
C. He prefers both practices.
D. He prefers neither practices.
()45. What’s the best title of the passage?
A. Different paying habits between East and West
B. Why do Chinese like to pay the bill
C. How to pay the bill
D. Why are the Chinese restaurants very noisy
