The last Wednesday in August marks Spain’s messiest festival. Held in Buñl, 40km west f Valencia, La Tmatina is a tmat-thrwing spectacle that draws mre than 20, 000 turists each year.
There are a number f stries related t its beginning f this festival but n ne knws fr sure the exact rigin. One stry states a fight between the lcals and the city cuncilmen ver an issue, frced the lcals t thrw tmates at the cuncilmen. The event smehw transfrmed frm a methd t display anger t ne f fun and entertainment and year after year, the “tmat fight” began t attract the public f Buñl.
On the day f the festival, trucks arrive at the center f twn, carrying trucklads f tmates belnging t the relatively cheaper kind. The trucks then empty the tmates n the streets t be picked up by the participants. The tmat-thrwing ften starts at abut 11 a. m. Peple pick up the tmates n the streets, thrwing tmates at each ther. Certain rules apply during this perid. Peple are expected t squash the tmates befre thrwing t minimize the chances f injury and n ther bjects except fr tmates can be used in the play. After the tmat thrwing ends, cleaning peratins begin. The twn authrities get busy cleaning the streets while lcal residents ften help the turists clean themselves with water frm pipes. Many take dips in lcals’ pls and rivers t clean themselves.
Over the past years, turists in Buñl have heavily increased due t the increasing ppularity f La Tmatina. Hwever, such a huge gathering in a small twn center is believed t be a risk t peple. This has frced the gvernment t regulate the number f participants at the festival t 20,000. An entry fee has als been charged while free passes are kept fr the lcals. Safety fficials, plice frces and ambulance services are als kept ready t meet any emergency needs during the festival.

25. What rule are the participants suppsed t fllw?
26. Why did the gvernment cntrl the number f the participants?

When I first mved t China in 1998, I thught I wuld impress my class by using sme Chinese in my speech abut American weddings (婚礼). I tld them everyne brings a gift t the wedding fr the cuple. As sn as I said this, all f the students lked surprised. I knew I had said smething wrng. I realized that instead f telling them that everybdy brings gifts t the hun li fr the cuple, I had said peple bring gifts fr them at the li hun!
I get laughs frm sme f my students because I ften make mistakes and my Chinese sunds strange at times. But I tell them that smetimes their English is really strange t.
One asks, “What are yu like t d in yur free time?’ And the ther answers, “I very like basketball.” I find that even gd English speakers make such mistakes. The secnd is by far the mst cmmn mistake I have heard amng Chinese English speakers. It is a result f first thinking in Chinese and then translating each wrd in the sentence int English. This, f curse, makes sme Chinese peple’s English sund strange.
“We shuld get ff the car here,” a student tld me. My schl had asked tw students t shw me arund the city by taxi. In English cuntries, we “get ff” a bike, bus, r train. Hwever, when we leave a car, we say “get ut f the car”. Perhaps the student had learned “get ff” means xia in Chinese and he thught the phrase (短语) culd be fllwed by any means f transprtatin. T avid such mistakes, yu shuld take cllcatins (搭配) seriusly. Only learning vcabulary and grammar is nt enugh.
Sme f my students sund mre like a bk r machine than a human. Perhaps they have gtten used t depending n bks. Yu can als read English bks ut lud r use a CD, but yu need the real thing. If yu have a chance t hear a native speaker frm an English­speaking cuntry, practice repeating what yu hear. They can teach yu hw t have a cnversatin.
28. Why did the students feel surprised?
29. What can cause strange English in China accrding t the authr?
30. What can we infer abut the student wh said “We ”?
31. What des the authr want t share in the last paragraph?

When Stanfrd University student Ellen Xu was a five-year-ld in Califrnia, she vividly recalls her parents rushing her little sister t the hspital. Three-year-ld Kate had fallen acutely ill; she had a fever, reddened eyes, a rash and sme swelling in her hands and tngue.
At first, the puzzled dctrs thught she had influenza, but when her cnditin didn’t imprve, the Xus returned t the emergency rm, where a dctr by chance had prir experience with an acute inflammatry (炎症性的) reactin in the bld vessels knwn as Kawasaki disease. Thugh rare, it’s the leading cause f acquired heart disease in babies and yung children, and its cause and triggers remain smewhat mysterius. The dctr knew hw t treat it: He rdered a dse f intravenus immunglbulin, and eventually Kate shk ff the illness withut suffering damage t her heart.
Xu remembers being curius abut her sister’s dramatic cnditin and was amazed that the grwn-ups culdn’t answer her questins abut why it was s hard t detect. “In my mind, it was this mystery, she says. ”It was a puzzle I wanted t slve. “
A decade later, wanting t enter a high schl science fair, she had an idea: ”What if we had a dctr in ur pcket?“ S she created just that: Using AT, Xu designed an algrithm(算法) that uses visual data t diagnse (诊断) Kawasaki disease based n five physical symptms.
The technlgy wrks the same way as apps that can identify birds and plants with phts yu’ve taken n yur cellphne. Wrried parents can uplad a pht that they have taken f their child, and the technlgy will scan the image fr symptms f Kawasaki disease, which ften have a strng visual element, such as a rash r a swllen tngue.
Xu’s inventin has been applied as a web app n the Kawasaki Disease Fundatin’s website withut charge. ”The technlgy culd als be develped fr recgnizing aut-immune and rheumatlgical (风湿病学的) diseases, “ she says. ”It means a lt t me. I want t use Al t help peple live happier and healthier lives.

B．It had never been knwn befre.
C．It culd be cnfused with influenza.
D．It culdn’t be diagnsed by medical instruments.
33. What’s the functin f the first three paragraphs?
A．T describe the bad results f the disease.
B．T intrduce a case remaining mysterius.
C．T shw why Xu develped the technlgy.
D．T prve dctrs shuld accumulate clinical experience.
34. What’s the advantage f Xu’s inventin?
A．It is cnvenient and cheap.
B．It can take the place f dctrs.
C．It can treat Kawasaki disease quickly.
D．It can diagnse Kawasaki disease via scanned pictures.
35. What can be learned frm the text?

B．Xu had the idea f the technlgy when Kate was treated.
C．The technlgy can’t be applied t diagnse ther diseases.
D．Influenza is the leading reasn f acquired heart disease in babies.

As I sat by the windw f ur schlhuse that afternn, my heart began t sink further with each passing car. This was a day I had been lking frward t fr weeks.

When she entered my rm and sat beside me n my bed, I didn’t mve but instead stared blankly int my pillw, refusing t acknwledge her presence.
