April 23 is known as World Book Day. The idea of setting a day to encourage reading came out from UNESCO (联合国教科文组织) in 1995. In fact, it started long before that in Spain. In 1922, Spanish writer Vicente Clavel

Andrés suggested the idea as a way to honor their famous writer Miguel de Cervantes. Four years later, the first celebration took place on October 7, Cervantes’ birthday. In 1930, it was moved to April 23, the date of his death.

Every year since 2001, one city around the world is chosen to be the UNESCO World Book Capital for a year. The task of the city is to carry out activities to encourage “a culture of reading and spreading its values in all ages in and out of the country.”

Though no Chinese cities have been chosen as the World Book Capital so far, a recent national survey shows a steady (稳定的) rise in reading as a habit in China. According to the survey, each Chinese adult read an average of 4.78 printed books and 3.33 e-books in 2022, both a bit higher than the figures from 2021. Besides, listening to audiobooks(有声读物) was another rising habit, with 35. 5 percent of adults saying they were used to listening to them.

Reading books gives people the chance to look into different worlds and meet new people both real and imagined. Ancient Chinese believed in the saying: Read ten thousand books and travel ten thousand miles. Reading is a way to learn from the past, understand the world, and get life wisdom (智慧). So make every day World Book Day!

4.When did Spain first hold a celebration to honor Cervantes？

A. In 1922. B. In 1926. C. In 1930. D. In 1995.

B. Spread UNESCO’s values.

C. Organize readers to visit the city.

D. Carry out reading activities.

6. What does the underlined word “them” in Paragraph 3 refer to (指代)?

A. Printed books. B. E-books.

C. Audiobooks. D. Cultural books.

7. What does the last paragraph mainly tell us?

A. The meaning of a Chinese saying.

B. The importance of reading books.

Podareva, 28, was born in the hometown of Russia’s famous poet Sergei Yesenin. She has loved poetry (诗歌) since her childhood. Growing up, she wrote many poems In both Russian and English. After she came to China to study Chinese in 2013 the world of Chinese poetry opened up before her.

Podareva has had colorful experiences in China in the past ten years. She has won prizes in many Chinese poetry writing competitions and published her own Chinese poetry collections. Her most unforgettable memory is that one of her Chinese poems written in 2020 was turned into a song. And even better: She sang it herself.

“Some people may praise China in a direct way, but I prefer to express my feelings about the country and describe the friendship between China and Russia through different styles of poems,” Podareva says.

Podareva has always wanted to be a cultural ambassador (使者) between the two countries. In 2020, she began to make videos and shared them online. Besides sharing Chinese poems she had written, Podareva also produced videos about cultural differences between China and Russia. Sometimes she made humorous videos to explain the misunderstandings that Chinese people have towards Russians.

Besides writing poetry, Podareva has also been painting. She doesn’t think the two art forms are different from each other. “Wang Wei was a famous Chinese poet, and he was also a painter,” she says. In December 2022, Podareva held an exhibition in Shanghai with 66 of her paintings on show.

“All art is a way for the creators to express their spirit, Podareva says.” I hope to create a website in Russia and introduce China—through my poetry and paintings-to Russians, so that the friendship between the two countries will be much deeper.

12. According to the passage, how many languages in all has Podareva used to write poems?

A. Two. B. Three. C. Four. D. Five.

A. By spreading cultural differences between China and Russia.

B. By finding some funny misunderstandings towards Russians.

A survey shows that the number of lonely adults is increasing. According to recent research, loneliness can have harmful effects on health. So if you feel lonely at times, be sure to care about it. Here are some tips for you to avoid being lonely.

Make time to meet people

Maybe it seems that you don’t have time to meet new friends, but you need to consider your social life first.

   16    You can even offer to take a neighbor’s dog for a walk. The neighbor will surely like to make friends with you.

Build your community online

Without doubt, it’s difficult for you to move to meet like-minded people. However, the Internet can easily bring people with the same interests together.    17    Try some safe meetup websites, which list local groups and events, bringing people with common interests together.

Know more about your friends

In order to find possible friends, try to know more about them. What do they like doing? Join one of their activities. What subject (话题) are they interested in?    18    In this way, you can know each other much better.

Work as volunteers

Volunteering is good for both body and mind. It gives you the chance to communicate with people. Helping at the local food store or in a charity (慈善) shop will give you a warm feeling and you’ll get to know other volunteers.

   19  

Plan ahead

   20    Rather than just suggesting meeting together, carry it out with an exact date and a careful plan. If you plan to meet more people, making a survey about the plan ahead of time will make the meeting more successful.
