24、You’ve got plenty of emails from your mom, and maybe even a few from dear old grandma. But have you ever received a message from a river?
Now, Ireland’s River Lee is sending out much information, thanks to wireless(无线的) technology. In a program called the DEPLOY project, scientists have put some sensors(传感器) in rivers that can find pollution levels.
Instead of asking scientists to collect water samples several times a day, the government can now examine pollution levels in the water, and find out if there is anything polluted entering the river. This makes it much easier for scientists to protect the environment, since problems can be discovered before a serious pollution accident really happens.
People in the area can also receive free reports from the river, so that they can find out whether the water is safe for swimming or boating on a certain day. And people can also know if the water is clear enough for them to drink and use.
The DEPLOY project has not only started in Ireland, also the same programs have started in thousands of places around the U.S. Now you live in a world in which you could receive information with your mobile phone about environment. The technology should help to make us know more about the pollution that surrounds us—which just might get us all a little more involved with trying to clean up our world.
【1】 How do scientists find pollution levels in rivers?
A. By putting sensors in rivers.
B. By using mobile phones.
C. By boating or swimming.
D. By surfing the Internet.
【2】The underlined word “samples” in the passage means “_______” in Chinese.
A. 样品 B. 有机物 C. 无机物 D. 示范
【3】The DEPLOY project is a project that cares for ________.

【4】What can we mainly learn from the fourth paragraph?

B. People can find if they can swim in the water.
C. The project is good for people’s daily life

【5】Which of the following is TRUE?

25、In the past, Chinese buyers liked foreign brands better, thinking that products made by American or European companies are of higher quality than Chinese ones. But now that’s no longer the case.
“Chinese people born before 1985 generally think that foreign brands are better than Chinese ones, billionaire William Li told Business Insider during a recent interview on CCTV 9. But for those who were born after 1985, it is a different picture.
“When I first went to the United Kingdom in 1997, I thought that the difference between China and Europe was quite big, Li said. “But for those born in the 1990s, when they visit Europe or the US, they do not think there is a big difference.”
The change in thinking among Chinese buyers is showing up in many markets in China where western companies controlled before. A study by Credit Suisse which came out in March found that more and more young Chinese buyers are showing a home brand bias.
More than 90% of young Chinese buyers would prefer to buy home brands, according to the study. At the same time, home companies producing food, drinks, or personal care products raised their share(份额) of the market by 33% over the last ten years to nearly 70%.
“Chinese buyers, especially the younger ones, don’t just believe that foreign brands are better. Right now, Chinese buyers think China is good and ‘Made in China’ is not bad at all, Charlie Chen, head of China buyer research at Credit Suisse, told South China Morning Post in March.
The Chinese smartphone market is controlled by home companies Huawei, Oppo, Vivo, and Xiaomi. Apple is the only foreign brand in the top five, but it has lost large ground to the home brands in recent years. Its market share is believed to go down to 37% from a 2015 high of 54%.
【1】Which of the following is true according to the text?
A. More and more foreigners go to buy Chinese products.
B. Older Chinese people don’t like foreign products any more.

D. Huawei is the top one in the smartphone market.
【2】Which fact best explains home brand bias?
A. Apple had a market share of 54% in 2015.
B. More than 90% of young Chinese buyers prefer home brands.
C. Chinese people born before 1985 think that Chinese brands aren’t as good as foreign ones.
D. American or European brands are of higher quality
【3】Who did most of the research for this report?
A. Credit Suisse.
B. CCTV 9.
C. South China Morning Post.
D. Billionaire William Li
【4】What’s the best title for this passage?
A. Chinese products get more popular at home.
B. Young Chinese are crazy for foreign brands.
C. ‘Made in China’ is welcomed all over the world.
D. The Chinese smartphone market is controlled by home companies

27、 China is the home of tea, which has more than 4000 years of history. Among the three main drinks—tea, coffee and cocoa, tea is drunk by the largest number of people in the world. Tea from China, along with silk and porcelain, began to be known by the world over a thousand years ago.
The words for “tea” in different languages came from the Chinese character “cha”. The English word, “tea”, sounds similar to the pronunciation of it in Xiamen. The Russians call it “chai’i”, which sounds like “chaye”(tea leaves). The Japanese character for tea is written exactly the same as it is in Chinese.
Tea leaves are produced mainly in the south of China because of the mild climate and rich soil there. Longiing, Pu’ er, Wulong and Tieguanyin are all famous tea. Over the past centuries, Chinese people have developed their unique tea culture. Tea is also a popular topic in dances, songs, poems and novels.
