Passage 1
Trees are close companions in our daily life. Although they cannot speak, we can still connect with them by hugging and observing them.
As we step into a summer filled with greenery, many people are excited to embrace nature. The trend of tree-hugging therapy has once again made waves on social media. Those who have tried “tree hugging” say it can ease stress and anxiety and help people give it a heartfelt hug. The practice is quite simple: step outside, find a park, find a tree that catches your eye, open your arms, hug it and quietly feel the connection.
But does “tree hugging” really have such magical effects? The answer is: yes! Research shows that spending some time each day hugging a tree can indeed lower stress, lift your mood, boost immunity, and even change your brain chemistry to make you feel happier. Tree hugging helps increase the level of oxytocin, there’s actually quite a lot you can do. You can study a tree by examining the bark’s texture and color and searching for pores on the trunk that allow the tree to “breathe”. You can tell single leaves from compound leaves, observe the shape, edges, tips and veins of the leaves, and even touch and smell them. If you come across a tree in bloom, you can examine the flower’s shape, color, scent and structure to help quickly identify the species. You can also engage with a tree’s life story. You can feel the passage of time by placing your hand on the trunk with your eyes closed, or sense the flow of energy within by pressing your ear against the bark.

Passage 3
Do you want a phone that looks like your school a lunch card? It seems like a lot of students are interested in getting one or making it themselves. It all started with a video on Xiaohongshu where an 18-year-old high school student called Liu Yiyang from Guangdong shared his cool invention. Many people wanted to buy it from him or asked for a tutorial.
Liu has designed both hardware and software. One of his inventions is an app called “Sam”, which is also Liu’s English name. “The app keeps the tools I often use in one place, like my browser, environmental noise monitoring, QR code generation.” He said. So far, a lot of people have downloaded the app.
The idea of a canteen card phone wasn’t his original idea. The concept was already popular on the internet. “Seeing that everyone was asking for a tutorial, I made one myself and shared a video on my Xiaohongshu,” Liu said. However, Liu realized that the idea could also have a bad influence on young people. He once talked to a primary school student on WeChat who planned to use a lunch card phone at school, hoping his teachers wouldn’t realize. “I canceled all the orders,” Liu said, “Now I only keep the phones I have already made as a reminder of my work.”
This situation made Liu reflect on the role of technology, which he believes is a double-edged sword. “As innovators, we should consider the negative impacts of what we create, and my lunch card phone is a good example of that,” Liu said. Now, Liu is working on a patent that he hopes can help the medical industry. He wants to make the world a more convenient place through his original products.
11. According to the passage, what is the primary function of the app called “Sam”?
A. To monitor environmental noise and generate QR code.
B. To replace a school canteen card for lunch purchases.
C. To organize frequently used digital tools in one platform.
D. To help students avoid detection during school activities.
12. Why did Liu Yiyang share this video on Xiaohongshu?
A. To sell his “Sam” app to students.
B. To show how to cheat during school classes.
C. To promote his medical patent application.
D. To respond to many people asking for a tutorial.
13. Why did Liu Yiyang cancel all orders for the canteen card phone?
A. The app was too difficult to use for students.
B. He realized the device could be misused for cheating.
C. The patent process delayed production.
D. Primary school students demanded refund.
14. What does Liu Yiyang mean by saying technology is a “double-edged sword” (Para.4)?
A. It solves problems but creates new ones when misused.
B. It requires both hardware and software development to function.
C. It is equally beneficial to students and educators.
D. It has limited applications in the medical field.
15. The author’s primary purpose in writing this passage is to
A. promote Liu Yiyang’s new medical patent application.
B. explain the technical process of creating a canteen card phone.
C. emphasise the ethical responsibilities of innovators.
D. criticize students for misusing technologies in schools.
Passage 4
In a city where East meets West on dining plates, Shanghai has launched a yearlong celebration of international cuisine. Global Taste in Shanghai, positioning itself as one of the world’s premier culinary destinations.
The festival kicked off this month, representing a move to showcase Shanghai’s rich and diverse international dining scene and fusion of flavors and cultural intersections. They currently boast nearly 10,000 restaurants representing 43 countries and regions across five continents.
Global cuisine is not just a carrier of city culture, but is also a universal language for international exchange that transcends borders and speaks directly to hearts. The concentration of global cuisines is a unique charm of Shanghai, and systematically enhancing its influence is of strategic significance.
The story of Shanghai’s international dining scene is perhaps best told through its restaurateurs, who have witnessed and shaped the city’s gastronomic evolution.
John Liu, the Chinese-American founder of the restaurant Scarpetta Trattoria, has lived this transformation. “When we first opened nearly 14 years ago, high-level international restaurants were not as common, and expatriates dominated our customer base,” Liu recalled. “Today, 80 to 90 percent of our clientele is Chinese, reflecting a remarkable shift in local palates and preferences.”
The evolution has sparked innovation in Shanghai’s kitchens. At Scarpetta Trattoria, Liu has developed signature dishes like Napoli pizza that have evolved to cater to local tastes.
“We’re seeing a fascinating convergence,” Liu noted. “Western restaurants are now learning from Chinese restaurants, particularly their expertise in sourcing exceptional ingredients from across regions.”
Italian food and wine carnivals, Greek food markets, and Spanish ham-tasting master classes. Subsequent quarters will celebrate flavors inspired by the Americas, Asian cuisines, and innovative fusion concepts.
16. What is the primary purpose of the Global Taste in Shanghai celebration?
A. To promote Shanghai’s plastic-free dining initiatives.
B. To showcase Shanghai’s international dining scene and cultural fusion.
C. To compete globally with other major food festivals.
D. To train foreign chefs in Chinese cooking techniques.
17. What does “a universal language for international exchange” (para 3) mean?
A. It substitutes for spoken language in commercial dealings.
B. It goes beyond borders and connects people emotionally.
C. It is only used in diplomatic events.
D. It simplifies food regulations for global consistency.
18. What was the main change in Scarpetta Trattoria’s customer base over 14 years?
A. It shifted from being dominated by foreigners to Chinese.
B. The restaurant shifted its menu from European to Asian cuisine.
C. It focused more on fusion dishes to attract international tourists.
D. It saw an increase in foreign customers compared to 14 years ago.
19. According to Liu, why are Western restaurants now learning from Chinese restaurants?

In Xi’an Chanba International Port, Xi’an people can enjoy noodles made from Kazakhstan flour. And at Zhengzhou East Railway station, Henan people can buy German milk, French wine and Italian coffee beans. All these products are available thanks to the China-Europe freight trains. On November 28, 2023, the X8086 China-Europe freight train left Chengdu for Malaszewice, Poland, marking the 120,000th journey of these amazing trains.
China-Europe freight train operations began in March 2011. Two years later, after the Belt and Road Initiative started, the train service grew quickly.
A large logistics network has now been set up. The Chinese cities involved have grown from only a few to 128, connecting with 232 cities in 26 European countries and over 100 cities in 11 Asian countries. This steel network has opened new paths for inland areas that are neither coastal nor close to other countries, covering the whole Eurasian continent.
The 120,000 train trips have carried over 50,000 types of goods. At first, they carried mainly light industrial products, but now high-value goods such as cars, machinery and electronics are their main exports.
A technology company from Chengdu supplies smart meters to power companies in Europe. In the past, it took 60 days to ship the products by sea. Now thanks to freight trains, it takes only about 30 days. Also, as more trains are running, transportation costs have fallen by more than 40 percent, uniting communities. Meanwhile, the trains have greatly changed the regions. For example, Chongqing’s export business grows by 30 percent each year and Xi’an has become a major electronics hub.
In Europe, Malaszewice has become a key logistics center, and 20,000 new jobs have been created in Duisburg, Germany. China-Europe freight trains go beyond transporting goods, connecting the world and uniting communities. They offer stable, efficient, low-cost logistics solutions as global logistics costs rise and supply chain issues increase for businesses.
41. ( A ) The 120,000th China-Europe freight train journey departed from Chengdu on November 28, 2023.
42. ( A ) This newly-opened steel network covered the whole Eurasian continent.
43. ( A ) Some regions along the rail route have experienced significant economic growth directly linked to the freight trains.
44. ( A ) Transportation costs have decreased by over 40% due to increased freight train frequency.
