Imagine you live in a smart city. Everything you need—schools, cinemas and parks—is all within a 10-minute walk. People in South Korea are planning such a community in Seoul.
The idea of such a city is not new. In 2016, French-Colombian researcher Carlos Moreno came up with the “15-minute city” idea. Such a city sees offices, sports centers and other things all within a 15-minute walk or a short bike ride from people’s homes. This way people can save time and enjoy themselves. Their pace （节奏） of life will slow down as well.
His idea interests more people during the pandemic（疫情）. People have to stay at home, with less chance to go outside their communities. But some people can’t find the things they need in their communities. Paloma Ezzet, 16, is an example. She has to give up soccer and dance as there are no places where she can do the things nearby. If she lived in a 15-minute city, it would not be a problem. But not everyone agrees with the idea. Some worry that such cities will gather wealth in the most convenient areas, so house prices will be high.

This year is the 41st anniversary of The Smurfs (蓝精灵) US cartoon show. These little blue elves (精灵) smurfed their funny language to the world.
The Smurfs first came out as a series of (一系列) comics. Their creator, Pierre Culliford, once said, “In three years, nobody will talk about them.” Instead, The Smurfs ran for nine years.
What made The Smurfs popular? There were not many cartoons for kids on TV then. Famous cartoonist Joseph Barbera called them “a relief (解脱)” from superhero cartoons.
Unlike superheroes, Smurfs are not powerful. Their leader is Papa Smurf, an old man. Each Smurf is different. They often argue with each other. But if a Smurf is in trouble, the others work together to protect him. Maybe that’s all the superpower they need.
Meet the Smurfs
Papa Smurf: The leader of the Smurfs. He is the only Smurf with a red hat. He understands the feelings of others.
Brainy Smurf: The village student. He wears glasses. He always shares “wisdom (智慧)” even though it annoys everyone. He writes many books.
Smurfette: The only female Smurf. She wears a white dress. She usually organizes big activities in the Smurf village.
Gargamel: An evil wizard (邪恶的巫师). He uses magic to catch the Smurfs. He wants to eat them or turn them into gold.

Every year on March 5, China celebrates “Lei Feng Day”. It’s a day to encourage community service and volunteering.
Lei Feng was a soldier in the People’s Liberation Army. He died in 1962, aged 22. His short life was filled with “selfless（无私的）service for the people”, reported China Daily.
As a non-Chinese person, I learned about Lei Feng once I came to China. The lesson was quite unforgettable.
One day, I was riding my bicycle down the street and a tire burst（车胎爆裂）. A passerby asked if I needed any help. He kindly guided me to a nearby bike stand for repair. Once we got there, I thanked him and asked what his name was in Chinese. He said, “I’m Lei Feng.” Not knowing who Lei Feng was, I replied,” Well, thank you, Lei Feng.” He and the others at the bike repair stand began laughing. I stood there confused（困惑的）. Why were they all laughing?
A few months later, our Chinese teacher told us about Lei Feng, this hero of small acts of kindness and community spirit. I remembered the man who helped me with my bicycle. Then it was my turn to laugh.
After this, I began to notice Lei Feng’s image（形象）on cultural souvenirs（纪念品）in local tourist shops. We need people to lend a hand and show the “Lei Feng spirit” now more than ever.
34．The author might know something about Lei Feng from ________.

I grew up in a family of 12 (10 children and parents) and a large family of grandparents, aunts, uncles, and cousins. Neighbors were in and out of each other’s homes at any given hour of any day, for years! Everybody was “family”. They married freely—that is, to people from any country. So it was common to hear people talking but not sure what they were speaking—there were Italian and French mixed with English, Eastern European accents (口音) with Asian English.
I later learned Spanish while living in New York City and married a Japanese man who could speak English. One day, my husband received a letter from a friend from Japan who he hadn’t seen in many years. This friend was visiting our city and we planned to meet. When we finally met, we discovered that his friend had been in South America for many years and spoke only Japanese and Spanish. So he spoke to me in Spanish and to my husband in Japanese; I spoke to him in Spanish and to my husband in English; and my husband spoke to me in English and to his friend in Japanese. We did this for about an hour! It was fun.
These experiences taught me the importance of learning other types of language. I can understand other people who speak a different language—language of someone whose experience has taken them down a road very different from mine.

On April 5, Queen Elizabeth II gave a short but powerful speech to inspire (激励) the British people. The UK, like many countries around the world, has been hit hard by the coronavirus pandemic (冠状病毒流行) . Many people have to stay at home and many businesses have been closed.
In her speech, the Queen thanked people of all walks of life (各行各业) for both following stay-at-home rules and making efforts to help their neighbors. She also thanked the country’s medical workers as they continue to fight the virus.
The Queen talked about her first-ever radio broadcast—delivered in 1940—when she and her sister Margaret spoke to children who had been evaluated ( 撤 离 ) from their homes during World War II. Fearing that German bombing ( 轰 炸 ) would kill people in the cities, millions of children in England were sent to safer places in the countryside.
“Echoes (再现) of that struggle of the 1940s, which for so long defined (定义) Britain and its self-image, ran through the broadcast,” the BBC said.
She ended the speech with a familiar phrase: “We will meet again.” It’s a reference  ( 引 用 ) to Vera Lynn’s We’ll Meet Again, a song that encouraged unity (团结) and optimism (乐观) among Britons during the World War II. With her speech, the Queen hoped to encourage national unity.

England has roses, the Netherlands has tulips, and India has lotuses. When you think of a particular country, its national flower might come to mind.
More than 100 countries have a national flower. But China, despite many beautiful flowers, does not.
China once had national flowers. During the Qing dynasty, it was the peony (牡丹). The government of the Republic of China later changed it to the plum blossom (梅花). But after the People's Republic of China was founded in 1949, a national flower was not chosen.
Debate over which flower should represent China continues today. China's two former national flowers—the peony and the plum blossom, remain as the two most popular choices.
Compared with small plum blossoms, the peony has large blossoms and vivid colors. Supporters of the peony think they represent China's continuing rise.
However, plum blossom supporters argue that the peony is often connected with chasing wealth and fame, which is not encouraged. On the contrary, the plum blossom has very noble (高洁的) qualities. It is said to be modest and persistent, as it is able to grow even during cold winters.
Some people have suggested that both flowers could be China's national flowers. One country, two flowers, you might say. China is just so big geographically, and both flowers are popular. Li Qingwei, an associate professor at Beijing Forestry University, told China Daily. So why not let both become national flowers? That would be harmonious (和谐的).
30．What do you think the text above is mainly talking about?
A．Different countries have different national flowers.
B．More than 100 countries have a national flower.

D．after the founding of PRC．
32．Why do plum blossom supporters disagree that the peony is chosen as a national flower?
A．It has large blossoms and vivid colors.
B．It is able to grow even during the winter.
C．It has something to do with wealth and fame.
D．It is said to be modest and persistent.
33．Which of the following can best summarize Li Qingwei’s idea?
A．That would be harmonious.
B．One country two flowers.
C．Both flowers are popular.
D．China is just so big geographically.

In a restaurant, a bug (虫子) suddenly flew in and landed on a woman. She started shouting out of fear. With a panicked (惊慌失措的) face, she started jumping around with both her hands shaking. Trying to scare away the bug. Her reaction was so strong that it panicked everyone in her group.
She finally got the bug off of her. But then it landed on another woman in the group. Now it was her turn to continue the drama (戏剧).
A waiter rushed to their table. The second woman somehow managed to get the bug on the waiter. The waiter stood firm and looked at the bug on his shirt. He carefully picked up the bug with his fingers and threw it out of a window. People around him were impressed.
Watching the drama go on, I started wondering: Was the bug responsible for their behavior. If so, then why was the waiter not disturbed (打扰)?
He solved the problem perfectly without any chaos. It was not the bug, but the inability of those people to deal with the disturbance caused by the bug that disturbed the woman.
I realized that it is not the shouting of my father or my boss or my wife that disturbs me, but my inability to deal with the disturbances caused by their shouting that disturbs me. It's not the traffic jams on the road that disturb me, but my inability to deal with the chaos caused by the traffic jams that disturbs me.
I understood. I should not react in life. I should always respond. The customers reacted, however, the waiter responded. Reactions are always instinctive (本能的), well responses tend to be well thought out.

A．complain your delay
B．feel upset and annoyed

36．推理判断题。A：抱怨阻塞；B：感到沮丧和心烦；C：听音乐放松自己；D：期待有人来清理道路。分析“It's not the traffic jams on the road that disturb me, but my inability to deal with the chaos caused by the traffic jams that disturbs me.”和“Reactions are always instinctive (本能的), well responses tend to be well thought out.”可知，让我烦恼的不是路上的交通堵塞，而是我无法处理由交通堵塞引起的混乱。作者明白反应总是本能的，但是好的反应往往是经过深思熟虑的。所以作者建议大家经过考虑后做出好的反应。结合选项，故选C。
37．主旨大意题。A：少说，多做；B：行胜于言；C：在餐馆时，举止要成熟；D：不要只凭感觉做出反应，要积极地做出反应。分析全文内容可知，本文通过描述作者在参观目睹顾客和服务员对突然进入参观的虫子的反应，感悟到反应是本能的，但是好的反应是经过深思熟虑的，不要只凭感觉做出反应，要积极地做出反应。结合选项，故选D。
