Cooking is Chris Spear’s passion. He’s been professionally cooking since he was 16. Over the years， he worked for big restaurants and reached a point where he had almost 100 employees reporting to him. That’s when he sought not to be restricted and wanted to be more creative. So， he quit working for restaurants and set up his own catering （餐飲） company， Perfect Little Bites in Frederick， Maryland.

Spending long hours in the kitchen doesn’t tire Spear， but he had often been concerned that becoming an independent chef would make him feel lonely. Spear said he wanted to find an arrangement that would be beneficial to all such groups but didn’t cost them any money. That inspired him to found Chefs Without Restaurants， an online resource for chefs.

Now he has an online group where he can post information about， for instance， a potential customer who wants to arrange a dinner in a given location and within a certain price range， and he can offer interested chefs more information. Customers can also benefit from this network. Spear is building a website where customers will be able to check out profiles of the Chefs Without Restaurants members， learn about their specialties and see what kinds of events they can cater， large or small.

Sharon Streb， owner of Oil amp; Vinegar Frederick which introduces cooking ideas and chefs to their customers， said small businesses should help one another succeed. “When other chefs and businesses come to my store， they get in front of our customers and hopefully we get in front of their customers. That’s a win-win for both of us，” she said. “It’s tough out there for a small business， and not a lot of small businesses succeed. It’s important that we can work together and be successful， both of us.”

That’s the goal for Spear， who wants to carve out a space for independent chefs on the food map in the area.

24. Why did Spear start his own business？

A. He got tired of being a chef. B. He desired not to be restricted.

C. He wanted to earn more money. D. He planned to help other chefs.

25. What is the original purpose of Chefs Without Restaurants？

A. To compete with other chefs. B. To provide training for chefs.

C. To share resources among chefs. D. To set up virtual restaurants.

26. What information on the network will appeal to customers？

A. Events held around. B. Locations of restaurants.

C. Data about chefs. D. Price ranges of dinners.

27. Why does the author quote Sharon Streb’s words in Paragraph 4？

A. To stress the significance of Spear’s work. B. To reveal the toughness of small businesses.

C. To show customers’ appreciation for Spear. D. To call on other businesses to join the group.

The sweet art of painting with caramelized sugar can be witnessed in China’s Sichuan Province. This ancient craft still manages to amaze tourists lucky enough to stumble upon a skilled street artist.

According to experts， this type of Chinese folk art originated from the Ming Dynasty when sugar animals and figures were created as part of ceremonies for sacrifice. During the Qing Dynasty， it gained even more popularity and the techniques were upgraded， which resulted in an increased number of patterns， most of them inspired by nature， wildlife and religion. In the beginning， people used molds （模具） to shape the caramelized sugar， but they were gradually replaced with a small bronze spoon that had to be used by talented artists who were experts at the art of normal painting as well.

“Painting” artistic pieces from melted sugar is very different from regular painting. Because the hot sugar cools down very quickly， the painter has to work swiftly， making sure he follows the correct order of strokes to get every shape just right. In order to get familiar with the process and the technique， it’s recommended that artists practice normal painting first.

Masters of this centuries-old craft use brown or white sugar as the main material. A bronze spoon and a small spade as tools， and a slab of marble （大理石） as the canvas. The sugar is melted over a fiery pot and spread over the canvas with the spoon. Once the shape is completed， the spade is used to glue a wooden stick to the artwork and to separate it from the marble slab. Then you can have your very own caramelized sugar dragon or tiger and a unique souvenir.

The art is gaining support from both the general public and the government， who had it listed as a Provincial Non-Material Culture Heritage.

28. What does the underlined phrase “stumble upon” in Paragraph 1 probably mean？

A. Employ. B. Attract. C. Become. D. Encounter.

29. What can we learn about the caramelized sugar painting in Qing Dynasty？

A. Its themes were various. B. It played a more important role in ceremonies.

C. It attracted more people to study paintings. D. Its molds were completely replaced by spoons.

30. What makes sugar painting different from regular painting？

A. The order of strokes. B. The number of the patterns.

C. The drawing materials. D. The topics of the paintings.

31. What is Paragraph 4 mainly about？

A. The history of making sugar paintings. B. The process of creating sugar paintings.

C. The variety of different sugar paintings. D. The pleasure of enjoying sugar paintings.

A new study combining linguistic， genetic and archaeological evidence has traced the origins of the family of languages including modern Japanese， Korean， Turkish and Mongolian and the people who speak them to millet （粟） farmers who inhabited a region in northeastern China about 9，000 years ago.

The findings document a shared genetic ancestry for the hundreds of millions of people who speak what the researchers call Transeurasian languages across an area stretching more than 8，000 kilometers.

The findings illustrate how humankind’s embrace of agriculture following the Ice Age powered the movements of some of the world’s major language families. Millet was an important early crop as hunter-gatherers transitioned to （轉(zhuǎn)向） an agricultural lifestyle.

There are 98 Transeurasian languages. This language family’s beginnings were traced to millet farmers in the Liao River valley， an area including parts of the Chinese provinces of Liaoning and Jilin and the region of Inner Mongolia. As these farmers moved across northeastern Asia， the descendant languages spread north and west into Siberia and east into the Korean peninsula and over the sea to Japan over thousands of years.

The research stressed the complex beginnings for modern populations and cultures.

“Accepting that the roots of one’s language， culture or people lie beyond the present national boundaries is a kind of surrender （屈服） of identity， which some people are not yet prepared to make，” said comparative linguist Martine Robbeets， lead author of the study published in the journal Nature.

The origins of modern Chinese languages arose independently， though in a similar fashion with millet also involved. While the ancestors of the Transeurasian languages grew millet in the Liao River valley， the originators of the Sino-Tibetan language family farmed foxtail millet at roughly the same time in China’s Yellow River region， paving the way for a separate language expansion.

32. What is the new study mainly about？

A. The origins of a large language family. B. The migration routes of millet farmers.

C. The shared features of neighboring languages. D. The different ancestries of Transeurasian speakers.

33. What fueled the spread of Transeurasian languages？

A. The transition of power. B. The variety of lifestyles.

C. The interaction of cultures. D. The adoption of farming.

34. Who may feel uncomfortable about the new findings？

A. Those from agricultural countries. B. Those afraid to cross boundaries.

C. Those with a strong sense of nationalism. D. Those refusing to accept their cultural identity.

35. What is the main function of the last paragraph？

A. To draw a conclusion. B. To present likely consequences.

C. To highlight the theme. D. To offer additional information.

China feeds a fifth of the world’s population from only less than one tenth of the arable （可耕的） land across the globe.

36 As early as the Northern Song Dynasty， there is documentary evidence of well-watered rice fields that were carved in a step-like fashion. 37 Even more remarkable than the early terracing （階梯狀坡地） of forested hillsides into productive paddies （稻田） is the fact that the terraces remain productive today.

While the Ziquejie Terraces still yield high-quality rice， they are under serious threat. Given the modern time minimum living standard， the success of China’s economic development has lifted the bar to the point where it exceeds what can be generated from traditional rice farming. 38 Local residents of the area also hope that the spectacular natural scenery will attract tourists， which eventually repays the region.

39 There is strong evidence that rice cultivation has not only fed the population but has also cultivated Chinese culture and the form of democracy. In 2014， Scientific American magazine posed the question， “Does rice farming lead to collectivist thinking？” The answer， based on pioneering work by Chinese and American researchers， suggested that it did.

Those living in rice growing areas in south China were more interdependent in their thinking than those in the wheat-growing north. The latter expressed attitudes that were individualistic rather than embracing. 40

A. The technical challenges were huge.

B. Therefore， China calls rice farmers to cooperate.

C. Moreover， rice farming supports the nation beyond agriculture.

D. Subsequent studies have shown that such differences are repeated globally.

E. The rice terraces of Ziquejie in Hunan Province from this era are known to date.

F. Therefore， rice production on the Ziquejie Terraces is aided by the local finance.

G. The need to feed its population has always been a concern of the Chinese government.

Walking across the campus with every pair of eyes on you can be embarrassing， especially when you’re 13 years old. I looked around me to find a friendly face， a smile， anything. I was quite disappointed. And I， in turn， felt a little foolish， walking across campus with a 1 smile on my face. I was simply hoping to follow the advice that my mother had given me years before： When things get awkward， smile. No matter where you are， a smile will always be understood. At that very moment， however， I felt my mother’s advice didn’t work.

Just at that time， I was asking myself questions and concerns of any l3-year-old on the first day of school： Where would I sit at lunch？ Who would I talk to？ Not to mention， how would I make friends when I didn’t even speak the language？ My heart was beating fast， and I felt nervous. Still， I did my best to be calm so as not to let others know just how scared I truly was.

When the teacher introduced me to the class as the “American girl”， 10 sets of hands immediately shot up. Some students had questions; others wanted to practice their English with me. Because I didn’t speak much Chinese yet， I talked with the other students through body language mixed in with broken English and Chinese. Despite the attention， I wasn’t sure how much of it was positive. It was almost as if they weren’t sure what to make of me and I was being examined. Then again， who could blame them？ After all， I was the first American ever to attend the school. So， we were all first timers.

注意：續(xù)寫詞數(shù)應(yīng)為150個(gè)左右。

Then came the first class—Chinese painting.

As I burnt with great embarrassment， Li Hua， who was next to me， gave me a warm smile.
