I am Tom from Canada and I am a big reader. I can read both French and English books. The mysterious (神秘的) Stranger is one of the most exciting books I have ever read. It’s not only a mystery story, as the book name suggests, but it’s also very funny. It will make you laugh out loud!

The story is set in New York, America and it’s all about a man called Harry who meets a stranger one day while eating his lunch in the park. The stranger, Mervin, manages to change Harry’s life forever. I won’t tell you how—you will have to read the story yourself to find out! Mervin has special magic, but he uses the magic only when Harry gets into trouble, which he often does.

It’s an easy read and not too difficult. It moves at a fast pace (节奏) and lots of things happen on every page, so you won’t get bored reading it. You might get a bit tired of Harry, though, as he seems to never learn his lesson and keeps on making the same mistakes. I won’t spoil (透露) the ending for you, but if you enjoy a good mystery and a good laugh, you will completely enjoy this book.

First has written two other books called The Lonely Child and Whispering Mountain. But I think this book is his best. I highly recommend (推荐) The Mysterious Stranger to readers over the age of 8. I give it 9 out of 10.

19．What do we know about Tom?

A．He loves reading. B．He lives in New York.

C．He thinks highly of Harry. D．He’s learning two languages.

20．What does Tom think of the book?

A．It’s hard to read. B．It’s slow-paced. C．It’s great fun. D．It’s boring.

21．What is the second paragraph mainly about?

A．How the story started. B．What the story is about.

C．Why the story is so popular. D．Where the story was written.

22．What is Harry like?

A．He is very polite. B．He helps Mervin a lot.

C．He has special magic. D．He often makes mistakes.

The dragon is a great animal in Chinese culture. It brings the wind and rain. It is said that every year on the second day of the second lunar month the dragon wakes up from its winter sleep and raise its head. Because of this, the day is called “Dragon Head-raising Day (Longtaitou). This year, it falls on March 4.

Old people believed that after Longtaitou, there would be more rain. And rain is very important to farming. So Longtaitou was the start of spring and farming.

People have many ways to celebrate the Longtaitou Festival. The most popular one is to have a haircut. Many believe that a haircut during the first lunar month may bring bad luck to your uncles, mainly your mother’s brothers. They hope getting a haircut on Longtaitou sweeps away bad luck.

Among Chinese people’s festival traditions, there is always a place for food. During the Longtaitou festival, people eat food named after dragons. Noodles are called dragon’s beard (longxu). Dumplings are dragon’s ears (long’er). And spring rolls are dragon’s scales (鳞片) (longlin).

People also have activities like dragon dancing on the day. In some places in Shandong Province, people make dragon lanterns too. Small boats go down the rivers and carry the lanterns, which stand for people’s best wishes and good luck.

23．Which is NOT TRUE about the time of Longtaitou Festival?

A．It falls on Mar. 4 this year. B．It’s on February 2 every year.

C．It comes on a different date every year. D．It comes on the second day of the second lunar month.

If you have ever been caught in the rain without an umbrella, you should thank this new invention: Lampbrella. Because it can also help to keep off rain.

The Lampbrella has been designed for those of us who get caught in the heavy rain without umbrellas. When the canopy’s sensors (灯罩的传感器) sense rainfall, the umbrella spreads and if it is left unused for two minutes, it will close again.

The Lampbrella, with a height 1.96 meters from the ground, could comfortably hold 10 to 12 people.

Belyaev, 27, from St Petersburg, Russia, said, “Once I was driving on a street in St Petersburg and saw the street lamps lighting people trying to hide from the rain. I thought it would be good to have a canopy built into a street lamp. When it starts raining, the sensors send a signal to the electric drive, which opens the umbrella at a safe low speed. The umbrella then closes when it doesn’t ‘see’ any people under the canopy for 2 minutes.”

Many companies take an interest in his idea and he hopes to begin production work on the Lampbrella in the next few months. He added, “I’d like to see Lampbrella fixed all over the world—but safety is necessary and the first.” “I think it would be useful almost in every country, but especially in rainy England perhaps—I’d love to see it in London.”

“From the comments I have received, people really like it, I didn’t expect.”

27．What makes the Lampbrella special?

A．Playing music. B．Giving off light. C．Keeping off rain. D．Holding many people.

28．When will the umbrella of Lampbrella close according to Belyaev?

A．After it opens for several minutes. B．After the canopy’s sensors sense rainfall.

C．When there are too many people under it. D．When there’s no one under it for a short while.

29．Which word can best describe the designer Belyaev?

A．Humorous. B．Outgoing. C．Creative.  D．Confident.

30．What can we know from the passage?

A．The designer was sure all people would like his invention.

B．Only companies have an interest in the designer’s invention

C．People can buy this new invention easily in many countries

D．The idea of Lampbrella came to the designer’s mind by accident.

Dear Rose,

I am doing great! How are you?

I’m glad to receive your email. You asked me how to learn Chinese well. Here’s some advice for you. I think it’s important to take Chinese classes. You’ll find it helpful.

What’s more, you could improve your Chinese by watching Chinese movies. It is also a good idea to learn and sing Chinese songs. You’ll learn more Chinese words by doing that. If possible, you can even make some Chinese friends. They will be pleased to help you and it’s a good chance for you to learn more about Chinese culture. Learning is a lifelong journey. Keep practicing every day, then it will bring something new. As for gifts, I suggest you buy tea. It is a symbol of Chinese civilization. Your friends will love it.

I’m looking forward to your coming! Wish you all the best.

Yours,

Li Ping
