24、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.
C. More and more Chinese buyers prefer Chinese products.
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
25、 Since the NCP (新冠肺炎) outbreak began in December, Japan has given away a lot of medical supplies (物资) to China. On the boxes of these supplies, poems are often written. Taken from ancient Chinese and Japanese poems, these powerful and inspiring lines show heartfelt wishes for Chinese people. And they let people know that ancient stars still shine in modern times. Let’s take a look at some of them.
山川异域,风月同天。
Lands apart, sky shared.
This line comes from a Buddhist hymn (佛诗) by the Japanese Prince Nagaya (长屋亲王). This hymn reminds us of the cultural exchanges between both countries in history. At that time, the prince wrote the hymn as an invitation for Chinese Buddhist monks(僧侣) to visit Japan. Inspired by the hymn, Jianzhen, a well-known monk of the Tang Dynasty (618-907), started his travel to Japan soon after.
岂曰无衣?与子同裳。
Fear not the want of armor(盔甲), for mine is also yours to wear.
This line is from a battle song of the Qin state, Wuyi (《无衣》), in the Book of Songs (《诗经》). The song refers to (指的是) soldiers sharing their armor, encouraging each other to win the war. The Chinese phrase “同裳” has the same meaning as “同袍” and “袍泽” which also come from this song. They all mean those who have fought together in armies.
青山一道同云雨,明月何曾是两乡。
Though separated by a mountain, we’ll share the same clouds and rain/The bright moon belongs not to a single town.
This sentence is from Tang poet Wang Changling’s Seeing Off Imperial Censor Chai (《送柴侍御》). This poem was written after the poet was demoted (贬官) and sent to a faraway place. He wanted to show that even though he had to separate with his friend, their friendship would continue.
【1】“Lands apart, sky shared” is written by ________.
A.Prince Nagaya B.Jianzhen C.Wang Changling D.a Chinese monk
【2】In the poems, people in different places can share the same things EXCEPT ________.
A.clothes B.the sky C.clouds and rain D.the bright moon
【3】The theme of the poems written on the boxes is ________.
A.hometown feelings B.beauty of nature C.love for family D.friendship
【4】We can know from the passage that ________.
A.all the sentences are taken from Chinese poems B.actions are always better than words
C.ancient poems can be used in modern times D.Japanese understand Chinese poems the best

This is what Murphy’s Law tells us: If things can go wrong, they will go wrong. But is it true?
Of the studies about Murphy’s Law, the most famous one is the buttered toast (烤面包片) phenomenon (现象): One toast with butter falls; it lands butter-side down most of the time.
To prove this, Robert Matthews did a lot of experiments with more than 1,000 British school kids in 2001.
In the first experiment, each student put a piece of buttered toast on a plate, let it fall off 20 times and noted which side it landed on. Of almost 10,000 experiments, toast landed butter-side down 62 percent of the time.
But you may ask: Is it the butter that plays a role? Here comes Matthews’ second experiment.
This time, instead of butter, the toast had a letter “B” written on one side. It still landed 58 percent of the time on the B-side.
This proved that Murphy’s Law is true: If the toast can land butter-side down, it will do so. Matthews did another experiment. When students threw the toast from a height of 2.5 metres, the toast landed butter-side down only 47 percent of the time.
“Toast lands butter-side down because humans aren’t tall enough to let it land any other way,” Matthews said.
根据上文内容判断正(T)误(F)
【1】According to Murphy’s Law, in an English class, if you don’t want to be questioned by the teacher, you may end up failing to answer the questions.
【2】In the first experiment of buttered toast, we know the toast landed butter-side down about 620 times.
【3】If the toast can land butter-side down, Murphy’s Law is true.
【4】In the first two experiments, either the butter or the letter “B” plays a role.
【5】The passage is mainly talking about Murphy’s Law depending on people’s mental states (心理状态).
