Thirty-Six Stratagems(计谋), which show our ancient Chinese wisdom, are our ancient culture treasure. And many of these stratagems can still be put into practice in many fields, such as war, politics, business and even daily life. The following are four of them. Let’s enjoy the charm of our traditional culture.

Many Chinese primary and middle-school students can’t do housework today and do not take such work seriously. As a result, some are unable to cook or wash their own clothes when they enter college.

The Ministry of Education has recently released the new curriculum standard(新课程标准) for housework education for students from Grade 1 to Grade 9, making it an independent course that students must take at least once a week. The new standard requires students in Grade 1-2 to learn to sweep the floor, Grade 3-4 to learn to plant cabbages, and Grade 5-6 to master the skills of cooking two to three dishes. Students in junior middle schools will learn to repair simple electrical machines. This new standard has been widely welcomed by the public.

Wang: We all know the importance of housework education. However, at home, some students are unable to do the simplest housework, as their parents insist they should devote themselves to study. Some of them gradually grow to be unwilling to do any kind of housework. Housework education is supposed to raise students’ interest in labor, help them experience different kinds of housework and, most importantly, correct their attitudes toward labor. The housework course will become an important step to develop and improve personalities of students.

Li: In order for students to develop in an all-round way, it’s absolutely necessary to add the housework course to school curriculums, which aims to encourage students in primary and secondary schools to progressively learn and love housework. It is important to make the housework class interesting, so that the students will really gain some practical skills. For this reason, schools should add professional(专业的) teachers to give the classes, instead of adding this new stress on parents and other teachers who are already busy with their daily work.

Zhang: Some people think it’s unnecessary to waste time on learning housework. If you want to have a meal, you can order food online, and for electrical machine repairs, you can ask for specialized help. However, people with the basic skills for daily life can go much more confidently and smoothly through everyday life.

It is the first step in encouraging young students to develop a healthy concept(观念) of labor and to be able to take care of themselves in daily life.

34. Which of the following is true according to the new curriculum standard?

A. Students in Grade 1-2 should learn to plant cabbages.

B. Students in Grade 5-6 should learn to cook 2-3 dishes.

C. Students in Grade 3-4 can repair simple electrical machines.

D Students should take the housework course at least twice a week.

35. According to Wang, why can’t some students do any basic housework?

A. Because students don’t realize the importance of labor.

B. Because housework can’t improve students’ personalities.

C. Because housework classes are not interesting as expected.

D. Because their parents require them to spend more time on study.

36. Which of the following opinions comes from Li?

A. Ordering food online is a good way for students to save time.

B. Non-professional teachers should help give housework classes.

C. Students get useful skills and confidence through housework classes.

D. Teachers of the housework course are expected to make classes interesting.

37. The passage mainly wants to tell us ________.

A. the importance of the housework course

B. the new stress on both teachers and parents

C. different opinions on the housework course

D. the concept of the new curriculum standard

C

Technology and sustainability(可持续性) are two driving forces in the world today. For the agriculture department, sustainable agriculture technology must be the new trend, and farmers should follow it.

The following sustainable agriculture technologies are necessary.

Smart irrigation

Crops need water—that’s needless to say. However, how they get water is another story.

With smart irrigation technology, water can be put to good use. New irrigation systems with smart technology can report soil moisture(湿度) and temperature in real time. These new technologies help farmers properly take care of crops in a more efficient way. For example, most crops have specific requirements for temperature and moisture. The new irrigation systems can show farmers whether they need to make changes for their crops’ growing environments. In this way, they may help reduce the waste of water.

Drones

Drones’ abilities get them a place on this list. They can do a lot and most importantly, they can make the boring and tiring farm work much easier.

These devices have high-definition cameras that take pictures and videos. Through wireless control, just at home farmers can fly the drones over the fields and check on crops. If one area of crops isn’t doing well, farmers can quickly record the details and then spray chemicals with the help of the drones.

Data and software

Data is rich in this tech-driven world. Farming and data working together can greatly change the way farmers plant, harvest and water.

As computers gather information, they report it all back to a central system. So when farmers learn in which area crop health needs to improve, they can use water and fertilizer(肥料) more efficiently, causing less waste.

The three technologies are helpful for farmers to save costs, labor and energy. And they can contribute to the final goal of agricultural sustainability—that is to improve the environment. As these new technologies continue to develop, we are sure to have a cleaner environment.

Sustainable agricultural technology is the future—and it will change the game.

38. According to the passage, smart irrigation can ________.

A. make full use of every drop of rain

B. decide crops’ growing environment

C help farmers water the crops when necessary

D. support the growth and harvest of crops efficiently

39. From “Drones” part, we can learn that ________.

A. drones can help provide water and fertilizer

B. drones help farm work in a more efficient way

C. farmers can fly in their drones to check on crops

D. farmers can record the details about their drones

40 What is the final goal of agricultural sustainability?

A. To help us have a better environment. B. To make farmers work more efficiently.

C. To raise the production of crops quickly. D. To reduce farmers’ boring and tiring work.

41. The passage is mainly to ________.

A. think highly of the agriculture department

B. make sustainable agriculture technologies better

C. change farmers’ misunderstanding of agriculture technologies

D. stress the importance of sustainable technologies in agriculture

As Xiong Chuanfa, 34, blew a lifelike puppy out of molten maltose(溶化的麦芽糖) in just minutes, kids looked carefully at him with great surprise, thinking he was a magician.

Xiong Chuanfa has been working on blowing sugar figurines, a Chinese traditional folk art with a history of over 600 years, for more than twenty years.

In this special art form, the artist heats the syrup(糖浆) to a certain temperature, pulls off a small amount, makes it into a ball with an open center, presses the open area together and stretches it to form a tube. Then he blows air into the tube and makes it into different shapes. The traditional folk art has been listed as a state-level intangible cultural heritage(非物质文化遗产).

Every morning, Xiong prepares the molten syrup and drives to start his “magic show” around his city. “Many people, particularly kids, are attracted by this sugar art. After all, the ancient art is gradually disappearing,” Xiong said. Simon, from Australia, was attracted by a sugar Bing Dwen Dwen, the mascot of the Beijing 2022 Winter Olympics, in Xiong’s stall. Simon couldn’t resist trying to make one himself. However, he couldn’t get the wanted shape though he tried several times. “It looks simple, but actually it’s very difficult to master the skill,” he said. Thanks to Xiong’s helping hand, Siunon finally saw a horse gradually taking shape. “Can’t believe I’ve done this,” he said, expressing his excitement at how a pot of sugar syrup has been turned into something “truly amazing”.

Xiong said that blowing sugar figurines can date back to the Ming Dynasty and that his family has passed down this art for four generations. “My 6-year-old son often blows up a balloon-like sugar figure, just like I used to do as a child,” he said. Xiong’s wife Wang Li is an artist of the sugar painting, which is a form of traditional Chinese folk art that uses hot, liquid sugar to make 2-D objects.

“None of the cultural heritage left by our ancestors should be lost. They are name cards of the splendid Chinese culture and should be spread around the world,” Xiong said. The couple often show their skills beside colleges to draw youngsters closer to the traditional art and allow them to experience its charm. “Sugar paintings and sugar figurines are childhood memories of several generations of Chinese people. We try to combine paper-cutting skills and modern elements(元素) with sugar figurines, making them similar to modern trend(趋势) while keeping a balance between beauty and taste. We will spend the rest of our lives helping pass on this intangible heritage,” Xiong said.

Many people were deeply moved after learning about the family’s story.

42. What is the correct order of making sugar figurines?

a. Making it into a sugar ball.    b. Stretching it to make a tube.

c. Pulling off some heated syrup.    d. Blowing air to make wanted shapes.

A. c-a-b-d B. c-b-a-d C. b-a-c-d D. b-c-a-d

43. The underlined word “resist” in Paragraph 4 probably means “________”.

A. be praised by B. stop oneself from

C. be attracted by D. remind oneself of

44. Which of the following is true according to the article?

A. Xiong’s son blows up a horse with his father’s help.

B. Xiong’s wife is also good at making sugar figurines.

C. Xiong tries to add modern elements to sugar figurines.

D. The Xiongs visit colleges to teach students their skills.

45. What’s the best title of the passage?

A. A Chinese artist on tasty folk art B. A new modern trend

C. A balance between beauty and taste D. Tasty sugar figurines

A teenager with autism swims toward victory

Chen Xingrong won five medals, including a gold, at the 11th National Games for Persons with Disabilities and the 8th National Special Olympics Games.

Born in Hainan Province, Chen Xingrong could not say a word until he was 2 years old. When Chen Xingrong was found autistic(自闭的), his parents were worried. In 2012, his father learned that swimming could help people with autism, so he spent months learning how to swim by watching videos and reading books. When Chen Xingrong was 5 years old, he began to teach him how to swim. At the very beginning, he spent three months teaching his son, but all his efforts failed. To his surprise, after another three months, he discovered that his son had developed the ability to control his breath under water, which greatly increased his confidence, and swimming soon became a key activity of the family. His father planned all his exercises for him at first, but then it was all up to him. He decided how many exercises he wanted to do, and his parents respected his choices. It was a process of self-management. With his father’s help as well as his good self-management and perseverance, he succeeded in winning many medals in the swimming competitions.

As well as swimming, learning basic life skills is also an important part of life for a teenager with autism. His father hopes that his son can live well on his own when he and his wife grow old. To help the public to know more about autistic people so as to reduce misunderstanding, he once organized about 500 people to watch an autism-themed film.

Thanks to his father's endless efforts, Chen Xingrong has learned to buy food in the market in their neighborhood. He also does voluntary jobs at supermarkets and fast-food restaurants, such as arranging shelves and cleaning dining tables. “He is good at skillfully arranging things. He is part of the community, and I hope he will live a wonderful life in the future,” his father says proudly.
