1、阅读下面的短文,将划线部分译成英文或中文。
Chinese writing is one of the world's greatest writing systems(系统). It is more widely in use than alphabetic(字母的)writing systems. 60 世界上多于一半的书是用中文写的, including historical writings and novels, along with writings on government and law.
At the beginning, written Chinese was a picture-based 1anguage. It dates back(追溯)several thousand years to the use of animal bones and shells on which symbols were carved(刻) by ancient Chinese people. 61. Some of the ancient symbols can still be seen in today's hanzi.
62.By the Shang Dynasty, these symbols had become a well-developed writing system. Over the years, the system developed into different forms, as it was a time when people were divided geographically, leading to different dialects(方言) and characters. This, however, changed under Emperor Qishihuang of the Qin Dynasty.
Emperor Qinshihuang united(统一)the seven major states into one country where the Chinese writing system began to develop in one direction. 63.这个系统在统一中国人民和文化方面起着重要的作用。Even today, no matter where Chinese people live or what dialect they speak,they can all still communicate in writing.
Today, Chinese writing system is still an important part of Chinese culture. As China plays a great role in the world, an increasing number of international students are beginning to appreciate(欣赏) China's culture through this amazing language. 64. Written Chinese spreads Chinese culture wherever it goes.

26、 “I do hope that by writing about their stories , I'm helping things change for the better . " Li Xueqing, a China Daily journalist , based in New York City.
They're neither medical workers in close contact with the novel coronavirus nor government officials who receive the latest updates of the situation - yet they’re keeping us informed of the development of the epidemic . They are the media , and their eyes are far-seeing.
Zhu Xingxin is one such member of the media : a photographer with China Daily . He visited Tongji Hospital affiliated with Tongji Medical College of Huazhong University of Science and Technology in Wuhan on Feb 3 to report on the lives of medical workers.
Before entering the isolation ward ( 隔离病房) , Zhu had to put on protective gear ( 装 备 ) like the doctors : a protective suit , a surgical mask ,goggles ( 护 目镜 ) , disposable ( 一次性 ) gloves and shoe covers.He described it as " stuffy (闷热的)” with all the layers on .“I felt anoxi( 缺氧的 ) under the masks , ”he wrote on China Daily . " So I lowered my voice and slowed down my motions, trying to make myself feel better.
The eyes of the media are not just here to see, but also to scrutinize.
On Feb 9, for example , a bus in Wuhan carrying severely ill patients was caught in traffic with no one guiding them and no hospitals claiming them . The incident was witnessed by Global Times journalists and was soon reported online. It ended with all the patients being properly settled in hospitals and officials in charge being held responsible . But it's possible that without journalists this incident would never have been exposed.
Li Xueqing , a China Daily journalist , based in New York City , is also aware of the media's role as a watchdog ( 监督者 ) . She wrote a story last month about a group of Wuhan University alumni ( 校 友 ) in New York City who donated medical equipment to hospitals in Wuhan . She was impressed by how they managed to collect such a large amount of supplies and build an international shipping pathway in such a short time . Yet she was also disturbed by how all the complex ( 繁 杂 的 )paperwork and bureaucratic (官僚主义的 ) procedures added to their already heavy workload.
" I do hope that by writing about their stories , I'm helping things change for the better , said Li.
Indeed , the media is like a pair of eyes watching out for us as they report on the world's most important news.

27、 My elder brother Steve gave me important lessons in values that helped me grow into an adult after my father died when I was six years old.
Steve taught me to face the results of my behavior. Once when I returned in tears from a Saturday baseball game, it was Steve who took some time to ask me what happened. When I told him that my baseball had flown through Mrs. Holt’s basement window, breaking the glass with a crash, Steve encouraged me to confess to her. After all, I was supposed to be playing in the park down Fifth Street and not in the path between buildings. Although my voice shook as I explained to Mrs. Holt, I offered to pay for the broken window from my pocket money.
I also learned from Steve that personal property (财产) is a sacred(神圣的) thing. After I found a shiny pen in my fifth-grade classroom, I wanted to keep it. Then Steve explained that it might be important to the loser although it had little value (价值). He also reminded (提醒) me of how sad I was when I lost the small dog my father made from a piece of cheap wood. At last, I returned the pen to my teacher, Mrs. Davids. I still remembered the smell of her perfume as she patted me on my shoulder.
Yet of all the lessons Steve gave me, his respect for life is the most vivid in my mind. When I was twelve, I killed an old brown bird in the garden with a gun. Excited with my accuracy, I asked Steve to come from the house to take a look. I shall never forget the way he stood for a long moment and stared at the bird on the ground. Then in a dead, quiet voice, he asked, “Did it hurt you first, Mark?” I didn’t know what to answer. He continued with his eyes firm, “Even if it hurts you first, you should think a long time and then decide whether you will kill it or not.” I really felt terrible then, but that moment stands out as the most important lesson my brother taught me.
【1】How many lessons Steve gave to Mark are mentioned in the passage?
A.One. B.Two. C.Three. D.Four.
【2】From the second paragraph, we know when Mark confessed to Mrs. Holt, ________.
A.he felt surprised B.he felt excited C.he felt frightened D.he felt delighted
【3】The underlined word “confess” probably means ________.
A.apologize B.explain C.complain D.argue
【4】According to the writer, which was the most important lesson Steve taught his young brother?
A.Respect for living things. B.Responsibility for one’s behavior.
C.The value of honesty. D.Care for the property of others.
【5】Which of the following is true according to the passage?
A.Mark was a boy when he wrote this passage.

C.When a living thing hurts you, you should kill it.
D.Even if a living thing hurts you, you should not kill it at once.
