26、Following the successful 2008 Beijing Olympics, China will soon host the Winter Olympic Games in 2022, making Beijing the first city in the world to hold both the summer and winter Olympic Games and the second capital city to hold the Winter Olympic Games after Oslo 1952.
Beijing 2022 Winter Olympics mascot pins(吉祥物徽章) have attracted attention from collectors around the world. These pins have been thought highly of for their fine design (设计).
Unlike some style designs for other sports games or celebrations in the country, the coming Winter Olympics pins mix traditional Chinese culture with modern arts. People think the style of the countdown(倒计时)pin collection is special. If collectors get all pins in the countdown series, they can place them together in a shape of a big “0”, showing the end of countdown and the beginning of the winter games.
In addition, the design of the series of pins includes some traditional Chinese stories, showing the images of Nuwa repairing the sky and Kuafu running after the sun. Only 2,022 pins of each story were produced. Other pin designs include traditional games, for example the ancient Chinese ball game, cuju. Ice play, an old sport in North China, is also shown on a single pin. This style of the design is originally from ancient paintings of the Ming and Qing Dynasties.
As the host of the 2022 Games, Beijing has told its own stories to the world through these colorful pins, making the Chinese culture known. At the same time, Beijing warmly welcomes athletes and audiences around the world.

28、 As the saying goes, “Without music, life would be a mistake.” Music is very important in our lives and here are four of the greatest musicians in history.
Ludwig van Beethoven(1770-1827)
Born in Bonn, Germany, Beethoven never held an official position in Vienna. He supported himself by giving concerts, teaching piano, and the sale of his compositions(作曲). The last 30 years of Beethoven’s life were filled with a lot of hard times, the first of which was his deafness. Beethoven’s music greatly influenced the next generation of musicians.
Johann Sebastian Bach(1685-1750)
Bach, “the father of modern music”, was born in Eisenach, Germany. His parents died when he was nine years old, and in 1695 he went to live with his brother Johann Christoph, who was an organist(风琴手) in Ohrdruf. He stayed there until 1700. Seven years later, he moved back to Weimar, where he served as court(宫廷) organist for nine years. His music greatly influenced classical music.
Frederic Chopin (1810-1849)
Chopin was born in Zelazowa Wola, Poland. He showed a talent for the piano at a very young age. Chopin began composing when he was still a child, but some of his early works have been lost. He gave his first public concert in 1818. Chopin was considered as the leading musician of his time.
Franz Schubert(1797-1828)
Schubert was born and died in Vienna. Unlike most of his predecessors(前辈),Schubert was not a great performer. He never had much money but he was very productive. He wrote his first masterpiece when he was only sixteen. However, he died young, before his talents had even been known.
【1】Beethoven did Not make a living by ___.
A.teaching students B.doing business
C.selling his works D.giving concerts

A.1765 B.1707 C.1750 D.1716

C.They became famous at a young age.
D.They were all talented musicians.
29、Aviation (航空业) is a major contributor to climate change, and also one of the hardest places to give up using fossil fuels (矿石燃料). New research suggests we could reduce the carbon footprint of jet fuel by 165 percent by making it out of food leftovers.
Scientists have shown that making jet fuel from food waste could greatly reduce emissions (排放). In a recent paper, they show that their fuel meets aviation standards (标准), and they’ve partnered with Southwest Airlines to speed up and start flight trials by 2023.
Wet waste like food leftovers are energy-rich, and previous research has shown that they could be turned into volatile fatty acids (VFAs) and then be made into jet fuel. But doing so in a way that would meet strict aviation standards was an unsolved problem.
The new way designed by the researchers adds extra carbon to VFA, turning them into paraffin (石蜡) that is exactly the same as that found in standard jet fuel. A mixture of 10 percent bio-paraffin and 90 percent traditional jet fuel met aviation standards, and the team says it’s likely to get official recognition soon.
It was shown that the new bio-paraffin had the potential to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 165 percent compared to standard jet fuel, which is far higher than the 50 to 70 percent reductions achieved by previous bio-jet fuels. Most of the emissions reduction came from taking wet waste away from landfills (垃圾填埋场) where it breaks down into a powerful greenhouse gas.
There are limits on how much of an impact the new fuel could have, though. The total energy content of all the wet waste in the US still only accounts for about 20 percent of the amount of jet fuel. However, finding a way to make society’s leftovers into something as valuable as jet fuel while significantly slashing its environmental impact is a major breakthrough. The partnerships with major airlines suggest yesterday’s dinner may soon be flying you across the country.
【1】What can be inferred from the first three paragraphs?
A.Aviation is the hardest place to give up using fossil fuels.
B.Making jet fuel out of food leftovers will worsen pollution.
C.Energy-rich food leftovers can be turned into jet fuel directly.
D.Scientists didn’t know the way that would meet strict aviation standards.
【2】Why can the new bio-paraffin reduce greenhouse gas emissions greatly?
A.It is made by adding extra carbon to VFA.
B.Paraffin found in standard jet fuel is exactly the same as it.
C.It has met aviation standards and has been officially recognized.
D.Wet waste is taken away from landfills where it changes into greenhouse gas.
【3】What does the underlined word “slashing” mean in the last paragraph?
A.Stopping.
B.Reducing.
C.Destroying.
D.Balancing.
【4】What is the author’s attitude to making jet fuel out of food waste?
A.Supportive.
B.Negative.
C.Doubtful.
D.Unclear.
