Learning Chinese is a challenging but gd experience as it gives yu the pprtunity t cmmunicate with mre than a billin peple.
Freigners think Chinese is a mysterius and difficult language because it is very different frm the Rman alphabet(罗马字母). In fact, Chinese is nt much mre difficult than learning any ther language. One reasn is that Chinese des nt require memrizing the kind f cmplex tenses(时态) like Eurpean languages.
Althugh it is certainly nt easy fr freigners, in my experience yu can learn Chinese fast. Yu will certainly find differences between the language in textbks and peple’s everyday speech. One example f this is the difference between language n the street and written Chinese. It prduces new phrases and vcabulary. In real life nwadays, peple ften use shrt, less cnversatinal phrases(词组) t cmmunicate with each ther. China has many prvinces and their dialects are different. After yu learn and understand the Beijing dialect, yu may find it is hard t understand Shanghai dialect.
The language cntinues develping. S it is still nt easy fr learners, n matter hw well they learn frm textbks.
I hpe that ne day mre Chinese curses are able t cnnect with “real” spken Chinese and the way in which Chinese peple speak daily. It will help freign learners t help bridge the gap between learners and native(本土的) speakers.

C. It is very different frm the Rman alphabet.
27. What des the underlined wrd “dialects” in the third paragraph mean?
A. Sme special peple in ne area.
B. Sme special languages in ne area.
C. Sme special custms in ne area.
28. Accrding t the passage, which sentence may agree with the writer’s idea?
A. Chinese is mre difficult t learn than any ther language.
B. Peple ften use lng sentences in the real life nwadays.
C. The develpment f language is still ging n.
29. Accrding t paragraph 5, what shuld yu d if yu want t learn Chinese well?
A. Learn sme dialects in Chinese daily life.
B. Learn written Chinese in Chinese daily life.
C. Learn real spken Chinese in Chinese daily life.
30. What can we infer(推断) frm the text?
A. It is difficult t learn Chinese.

D
Peple ften say, “Yu can’t live nly n air.” But Chinese scientists can nw tell yu: Maybe yu can.
Scientists frm Tianjin Institute f Industrial Bitechnlgy f the Chinese Academy f Sciences made a big breakthrugh. They have turned carbn dixide (CO2, 二氧化碳), the “infamus”(声名狼藉的) greenhuse gas, int starch (淀粉).
Starch is the main part f the flur, rice and crn that we eat every day. It’s created by plants thrugh phtsynthesis (光合作用). But accrding t the team’s directr Ma Yanhe, plants d this in a cmplex(复杂的) and inefficient（低效的） way, which takes abut 60 steps. The new study, after six years f hard wrk, has fund a simpler way t d this, with nly 11 steps.
“Our study shws that creating cmplex cmpunds (化合物) like starch is pssible in a lab(实验室), and there are many areas that can benefit frm this technlgy, ” Ma tld China Daily.
The scientists first turned CO2 and hydrgen gas int methanl (甲醇). Then they pieced these methanl mlecules(分子) int bigger and mre cmplex mlecules. Finally the starch came ut.
This methd makes it pssible t prduce fd in factries, replacing traditinal farming. This will nt nly help make plenty f starchy crps (农作物) such as ptates, but als save water, fertilizer (肥料) and land. It may als help recycle CO2 t deal with climate change, accrding t China Daily.
The study can benefit space explratin t. Astrnauts n lnger need t wrry abut their fd as they travel in space. They may simply turn the CO2 they breathe int the fd they eat!
31. What’s the main part f flur, rice and crn?
A. Water. B. Starch. C. CO2.
Cmpared with the prcess used by plants, it’s ____ t make starch using CO2.
A. harder B. mre cmplex C. easier
