Nearly each country in the world has its official honors reserved (保留) for outstanding people.
For instance, in the United State, the highest civilian honor is the Presidential Medal of Freedom. In
China,there are also such official honors given to people who have made outstanding contributions
(贡献)to the nation's construction and development.
On Sept. 17. 2019, President Xi Jinping signed a presidential decree (主席法令) to award 42
individuals the Medal of the Republic, the Friendship Medal and various honorary titles.
Shen Jilan, a 89 year old farmer, is one of the eight people who were awarded the Medal of the
Republic. She is the only person in China who has served at all 13 National People's Congresses (人
民 代 表 大 会 ) since 1954. She is the very witness to the development of the People's Congress
system. It was she who put forward the clause on“equal pay for equal work" between men and women, which was written into the first Constitution of PRC in 1954.
Tu Youyou, who had received the Nobel Medicine Prize in 2015,was also awarded the Medal
of the Republic. She is famous for finding out Qinghaosu, which has helped to save millions of
lives.Before the discovery, malaria is a deadly disease to people of tropical developing countries in
South Asia, Africa and South America. Therefore, her discovery of Qinghaosu and its treatment of
this disease is considered as an important breakthrough in the 20th century.
Yuan Longping, the father of hybrid rice (杂交水稻), received the Medal of the Republic as
well. He is known for his great contributions to hybrid rice research and the wonderful work he has
done to improve rice production in many developing countries. Judging from his appearance, he
looks like a farmer rather than a scientist, with his sunburnt face and slim, strong body. That is
because he always works under the sun for a long time and that is how he developed hybrid rice
which produces 1/3 more than normal rice.
Ye Peijin who has been devoted to China's lunar program for twenty years, received the
honorary title "the people's scientist. He is well-known as a leading scientist in deep-space
exploration at the China Academy of Space Technology.

It is hard, it hurts —and yet more than two million of us in the UK run at least once a week.
Of course, some people run to lose weight, or to get fit, and these are great reasons. Running is
also easy to do, it's cheap, and you can do it when you want. All these factors certainly contribute to
the fact that running is one of the most popular sports in the UK.
But for many of those two million runners, the real reason we head out to beat the roads until
our legs hurt is more intangible (无形的) than weight loss or fitness.
Many runners become interested in times. They try to break the 40-minute barrier for the 10K,
or run under four hours for the marathon. Yet, really, these times are almost meaningless. And as
soon as they are achieved, another target is thrown out almost immediately.
The times are only the carrots we put in front of ourselves. But why do we put them there in the
first place? Nobody ever gives a wise answer Deep down, we all know the answer.
Running brings us joy. Watch small children when they are excited, at play, and mostly they
can't stop running. There's a great moment in The Catcher in the Rye when Holden Caulfield, caught
in the uneasy space between childhood and adulthood, is walking across his school grounds one
evening and he suddenly starts to run. “I don't ever know what 1 was running for 一 I guess I just
felt like it,” he says.
This will to run is born. In fact, humans may well have evolved (进化) the way we did because
of our ability to run. As children, and even adolescents, we can respond to this natural call to run
whenever the feeling takes us.
As we run, we begin to sense that childish joy, which is born to live a wilder existence. As we
run, the layers of responsibility and identity we have gathered in our lives, father, mother, lawyer,
teacher, all fall away, leaving us with the raw human being.
If we push on, running harder, deeper into the loneliness, further away from the world and thestructure of our lives, we begin to feel strangely excited, separated yet a the same time connected, to
ourselves. With nothing but our own two legs moving us, we begin 1o get a sense of who, or what,
we really are. After a long run, everything seems right in the word. Everything is at peace. To
experience this is a powerful feeling, strong enough to have us coming back, again and again, for
more.
26. Why does the author think setting time goals is almost meaningless?
A. Because those time goals can' be achieved.
B. Because those time goals can be achieved easily
C. Because people will be very proud once the time goals are achieved.
D. Because there will always be a new time goal once the former one is achieved.
27. The author mentions the reasons for running EXCEPT___________.
A. challenging ourselves B. running away from responsibility
C. losing weight and keeping fit D. bringing us joy and peace in mind
28. Which of the following words can best describe the author's attitude towards running?
A. Uncertain. B. Doubtful. C. Supportive. D. Puzzled.
29. What does the underlined word "this “in the last paragraph probably mean?
A. breaking the 40 -minute barrier for the 10K.
B. running under four hours for the Marathon.
C. feeling separated from the world after running
D. feeling everything is right after a long run.
30. What may be the best tile of this passage ?
A. Running to Keep Fit B. Running to Break Records
C. Running to Be the Real You D. Running to Become an Adult
C
In 1987. a mountain on Mercury (水星) got a name 一 Li Qingzhao, the name of a Chinese
female poet According to the International Astronomical Union, all new mountains on Mercury must
be named after a litterateur (文人) or an artist who was famous for more than fifty years, and dead
for more than three years, before the date they are named. Of the total of 310 names, fifteen are
named after famous Chinese writers and artists, and Li Qingzhao is one of them, together with Li
Bai, Bai Juyi Cao Xueqin and Lu Xun.What did Li Qingzhao do to deserve such an honour? Li is a poet of the Song Dynasty.
Compared with other male poets in China, who have left hundreds or even thousands of poems, Li
has only eighty-seven, like a drop in a bucket of water However, her talents and artistic creativity as
shown in her eighty-seven works have earned her a lasting place in the Chinese literary circle.
Li was born into a scholar-official family in 1084. Like other young women in a rich family,
she was well-read and trained in Chinese calligraphy (书法) and musical instrument. Most young
women of rich families were taught to follow the "Three Obediences and Four Virtues" at that time,
while Li was free in both character building and artistic development.
When it was time for her to start another stage in life 一 marriage, Li married Zhao Mingcheng.
a student at the supreme academy of the imperial court. The couple devoted their spare time to their
common interests 一 literature and the collection of calligraphy and painting.
Unluckily, their happiness didn't last long. The power struggle at the very top of the
government destroyed everything. Li first followed her husband to Qing Zhou, and spent the next ten
years there. It turned out that the ten years in Qing Zhou was the most productive period for her
artistic creativity. Then in 1127, when the North Song Dynasty ended, Li followed her husband to
Lin'an. Soon her husband died. And the worst part was that not only did she lose her loved husband
but she also lost most of her accumulated (积累的) works.
Later, Li remarried a government official, who turned out to be a total liar and treated her badly.
She died in 1155 in loneliness and pain.
31. With the strict rules set by The International Astronomical Union in naming mountains on
Mercury,_____________.
A. Li Qingzhao is the only female poet

A. Because she wrote eighty-seven poems.
B. Because she was like a drop in a bucket of water.
C. Because she was a famous female poet in the Song Dynasty.
D. Because she had great talents and artistic creativity shown in her poems.33. What can we lean about Li Qingzhao's young adulthood from the passage?
A. She grew up in a quite relaxed family.
B. She was free to do whatever she wanted to.
C. She was forced to follow the "Three Obediences and Four Virtues".
D. She showed little interest in Chinese calligraphy and musical instrument.

One possible version:
English is widely recognized as the universal language. Recently there have been various
English learning institutions. People ‘s opinions on these institutions are divided.
Some people are in favor of them,saying that being exposed to pure and authentic English
makes it much easier for them to improve their English What's more, foreign teachers are often
humorous and interesting, tending to teach English in a quite different way, which attracts people a
lot.
However. others hold a complete different view. They think it difficult for most Chinese
families to afford such kind of institutions, since they often charge a very high price .Worse still, it is almost impossible for common people to evaluate those foreign teachers in those English learning
institutions.
From my point of view, the advantages far outweigh its disadvantages. After all, we can acquire
the most standard English from those foreign teachers, who can provide a real English learning
atmosphere. Besides we can have access to the foreign culture and enjoy a different way of learning
so as to understand English better (150 words)
