21、   This spring, you may be fortunate enough to have good weather, a small piece of earth and the energy, enthusiasm and inspiration to plant a garden. There is nothing better to shake off the boredom and dullness of winter than to dig in the earth, plant some seeds and watch them grow. A small garden can produce something extra fresh for dinner, flowers for the table and a feeling of accomplishment. It is work, but it is ever so rewarding.

What about your life garden? Just as a beautiful garden is a work in progress, so is the garden in your mind. It takes conscious effort, planning, constant nurturing(培育) and weeding to grow a garden. What have you planted? What have you allowed to take root? Is your life the out-picturing of a well laid out garden or a jumble of plants, trees and weeds whose seeds were blown your way and took root?

We have all heard phrases like "sowing seeds of doubt", or "seeds of discontent." We can make a conscious choice whether to allow them to take root in our lives or cast them out of our garden. Negative energy and words, like weeds, will spread quickly if left unchecked. Find a good "weed killer"-a book, an inspirational story, a positive statement-to help you get rid of the thoughts that ruin the beauty of your garden.

Plant as many seeds of joy and beauty as you can-in your own life and in the lives of the people with whom you live and work every day. Grow a gratitude garden, a peace garden and a dream garden. Tend to them daily. If you give them time and energy, you will have a rich harvest of success, happiness and peace of mind.

【1】Why does the author tell us the benefits of growing a garden?

A.To ask us to love gardening. B.To show his love for gardening.

C.To lead in to the topic of the text. D.To show what a life garden is like.

【2】In what way is our life garden similar to a beautiful garden?

A.It is in change all the time.

B.It can make us happy and grateful in life.

C.It needs our conscious effort and constant care.

D.It is full of both positive energy and negative energy.

【3】Why does the author compare negative energy and words to weeds?

A.They are a natural part of life. B.They are difficult to remove.

C.They are often left unchecked. D.They need to be removed before they spread.

【4】Which of the following can be regarded as a weed killer?

A.Reading a dull book. B.Relieving our discontent.

C.Having positive self-talks. D.Pulling weeds in the garden.

23、   Inside a brightly-lit classroom, around 20 schoolchildren are singing the Chinese national anthem. That song is followed by another tune in Chinese—one typically sung during the Lunar New Year. But this scene is not taking place in a Chinese school but at Lakewood Premier school, thousands of kilometers away in Nairobi(内罗比). Here, schoolchildren are learning Mandarin, a language spoken by nearly 1 billion people almost 8,000 kilometers away from their home. More will join their ranks in 2020 when Mandarin will be officially taught in all Kenyan schools alongside French, Arabic and German, which are already on the curriculum.

Sandra Wanjiru, 13, is one of hundreds of African schoolchildren who are increasingly skilled in the Chinese language. Lakewood Premier School, where Wanjiru studies, has begun the program a year early to give its pupils a head start. "I chose to learn Chinese first not only because it's interesting to learn a foreign language but also because I would want to travel and do business in China," said Wanjiru.

Julius Jwan, CEO of the Kenya Institute of Curriculum Development (KICD) told Chinese state-owned Chinese news agency Xinhua： "The place of China in the world economy has also grown to be so strong that Kenya stands to benefit if its citizens can understand Mandarin. " China has become increasingly powerful across Africa over the past two decades. Through President Xi Jinping's flagship Belt and Road Initiative, China has loaned money to African countries to build highways, dams, stadiums and airports.

Henry Adramunguni, a specialist at Uganda's National Curriculum(课程)Development Centre, said Mandarin was included in the curriculum because it is one of the United Nations' languages of work. "We want to give the opportunity for our young Ugandans to have access to jobs, education and business beyond our borders. That's why we've given them this opportunity to learn Chinese," he said,

【1】What's the function of Paragraph 1?

A．It tells readers Chinese is being taught in Africa.

B．It introduces a topic for the following paragraphs.

C．It tells readers many languages are being taught in Africa.

D．It stresses how important to learn the Chinese national anthem.

【2】What made Sandra Wanjiru learn Chinese language at last?

A．The language was very easy.

B．He found it was interesting.

C．The school asked him to learn.

D．The language will help him a lot in the future.

【3】How did China help African countries?

A．China built many schools for Africa.

B．China shared the curriculum.

C．China lent money to begin building.

D．China let Africans go to China.

【4】What did Henry Adramunguni think of students' learning Mandarin?

A．It was necessary.

B．It was useless.

C．It was not beneficial.

D．It was not profitable.

24、China is showing the world its great resolve in the global climate campaign with concrete and self-motivated efforts as well as serious commitment.

At the opening ceremony of the Paris climate summit, Chinese President Xi Jinping restated China’s plan made in June to cut its carbon emissions per unit of GDP by 60—65 per cent from 2005 levels by 2030, and increase non-fossil fuel sources in primary energy consumption to about 20 per cent.

With a large population, China is facing increasing resource limits, severe environmental pollution and a worsening ecosystem, and its citizens are also becoming increasingly aware of environmental problems. Suffering environmental problems and considering the efforts important in order to transform its economic growth pattern, the country will have much at risk if climate change is left unattended.

Actually, climate change efforts have already been included in China’s medium-and long-term program of economic and social development, and ecological efforts are the clear characteristics in China’s 13th Five-Year Plan(2016—2020).

Although it is and will be a developing country for a long time, China has been actively involved in the global campaign against climate change, now topping the world in terms of energy conservation and the use of new and renewable energy.

However, China’s development rights need to be respected. It is unfair to overstress China’s status as one of the world’s largest greenhouse gas emitters and regard it as the major part of responsibilities in the global fight against climate change.

It is worthy of notice that China’s emissions of greenhouse gases per person are far lower than those of developed countries, especially the United States, although rapid economic expansion and its population base have made it one of the biggest producers of the greenhouse gas.

To show its great resolve, China also announced the establishment of an independent South-South cooperation in September, investing RMB 20 billion to help developing countries affected by global warming.

While China is eagerly accomplishing its policy commitment, developed countries should stop questioning China’s commitment to fighting climate change and pointing fingers, and start shouldering their due responsibilities instead.

【1】China is self-motivated to fight against climate change in order to 　　　.

A．top the world

B．transform its economic growth pattern

C．solve its population problem

D．respond to pressure from developed countries

【2】The underlined word “it” in Paragraph 7 refers to 　　　.

A．China

B．the United States

C．economic expansion

D．the population base

【3】It can be inferred from the text that 　　　.

A．China will completely use non-fossil fuels by 2030

B．China will carry out its plan by stopping its development

C．Chinese emit more greenhouse gases than Americans on average

D．some developed countries are not taking on their responsibilities

【4】Which of the following is a sign of China’s self-motivated fight against climate change?

A．Expanding its economy.

B．Using non-renewable energy.

C．Making the fight against climate change part of China’s 13th Five-Year Plan.

D．Donating money to developing countries.
