It is more than sixty years since the death of Lei Feng, and yet his spirit of selflessness is still alive, inspiring Chinese young people. In fact, the wish to help others can always be found among common people.
On September 5, 2022, when an earthquake hit Luding, Sichuan, 28-year-old hydropower station (水电站) worker Gan Yu chose not to leave but stay at his workplace, saving villages downstream from being flooded. People think he is a hero like Lei Feng, but he doesn’t feel that he should be compared to the young hero. “Lei Feng is a role model to all Chinese young people. The things he did may seem small, but behind them was a nobility (高贵的品质) that we can all achieve,” he said.
Zeng Qiangfei, 24, is also from Sichuan. In 2013, when an earthquake happened in his hometown, he was studying in a middle school. Zeng remembered seeing rescuers (救援者) and volunteers gather there to help. When he grew up, he became a volunteer himself. After a terrible quake hit Turkey and Syria this year, he flew there to help. During the rescue, he always saw local people bowing quietly to rescuers like them. “I grew up listening to Lei Feng’s stories. He is an excellent young man who spared no effort to help others,” said Zeng.
This view is shared by a 56-year-old British man named James Elroy Edginton, who lives in Hunan, the hometown of Lei Feng. Working at a local college, Edginton volunteers to help students from poor families, and is warmly regarded as a “foreign Lei Feng”. “I am honored to be connected with the spirit of Lei Feng. His qualities are timeless and borderless,” he said.
21. Which of the following words can best describe Gan Yu?
A. Responsible. B. Smart. C. Patient. D. Careful.
22. Why did Zeng Qiangfei become a volunteer when he grew up?
A. Because he wanted local people to thank him.
B. Because he was quite moved by Gan Yu’s story.
C. Because he learned about volunteering at school.
D. Because he was influenced greatly by volunteers.
23. Which one of the statements below is a fact according to the passage?
A. Gan Yu is a hero like Lei Feng. B. Zeng Qiangfei is warm-hearted.
C. Lei Feng’s hometown is in Hunan. D. Edginton is a “foreign Lei Feng”.
24. How does the writer support his idea?
A. By listing numbers. B. By giving examples.
C. By making surveys. D. By asking questions.
25. What’s the best title for the passage?
A. The ways of helping others B. The spirit of Lei Feng never dies
C. The stories of young heroes D. Chinese volunteers are everywhere
C
Recently, a research on how a new virtual reality (VR虚拟现实) experience educated children about the fire disasters (灾害) was done. The new VR experience was developed by the University of South Australia, hoping to educate children to learn how to be safe in a fire. It presents a situation for children aged 10—12. In the situation, they are tasked to look after a friend’s dog just before a fire event begins. They take part in a set of problem-solving activities to help save and protect themselves and the dog.
The findings showed that over 80% of children could calmly tell the advantages and disadvantages of different choices. They also learned to make wise decisions to protect themselves from a fire. Children thought it especially important and meaningful, because 91% of them didn’t have knowledge of fires at the beginning, and 67% had said that they were too young to make safety decisions in a fire.
The researchers believed such VR experiences made it possible to engage, educate and empower the young. “As children born in modern times, they are interested in such technology and they can experience events in a real situation yet within the safe environment,” said Delene Weber, one of the researchers. “Well-designed VR can provide children with surprisingly valuable learning tools.” Meanwhile, because children have fewer life experiences, aren’t as physically strong, and are less likely to have learned much about fire safety, they’re often most at risk. However, the role that children play in the fire safety at their homes should not be underestimated (低估). “Children don’t need to be always waiting for help in disasters. With these VR experiences, we can make children understand the risks and realize they can help,” said Weber.
26. What’s the purpose of the new VR experience?
A. To describe children’s reactions to fire disasters.
B. To teach children to save themselves in a fire.
C. To introduce ways of avoiding a fire to children.
D. To increase children’s interest in VR experiences.
27. From the findings, what’s the children’s attitude (态度) towards the new VR experience?
A Doubtful. B. Worried. C. Uncertain. D. Supportive.
28. Which of the following in the dictionary best explains the underlined word “engage” in Para.3?
engage /εn’geɪdʒ/
verb en·gaged, en·gag·ing.
①to draw one’s attention and keep them interested
②to give somebody a job
③to begin fighting with somebody
④to fit one part of a machine into another so they can work

A. ① B. ② C. ③ D. ④
29. From Para. 3, we mainly get to know the ________ of the new VR experience.
A. Development B. advantages C. quality D. introduction
30. According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE?
A. Children make no difference in the fire safety at their homes.
B. VR experiences are mainly designed for children in high school.
C. Well-designed VR can offer children amazingly valuable learning tools.
D. 91% of children believed they weren’t old enough to make safety decisions.

As winter comes, hands can easily get cold. Thick gloves might be a good choice, but sometimes wearing them is inconvenient. However, this was not a problem for ancient Chinese people, who had a fine tool to warm their hands: hand warmers.
There is one folk story about its invention. Emperor Yang from the Sui Dynasty visited Jiangsu in winter. Because of the cold, a local official asked craftsmen (工匠人) to make a small warmer for the emperor that could be held in his hands. So, the hand warmer was created.
By the Song Dynasty, the warmers had become popular among the common people. Skills for producing the tool were widely used in the Ming and Qing Dynasties. Many poets from this period kept a record of people using hand warmers.
In the early days, copper (铜) was generally used in the production process. It was more suitable than silver, iron and porcelain because it could transfer (传导) heat better, while reducing the risk of breakage or corrosion (腐蚀). Inside a hand warmer, there were coals, some of which were mixed with flowers, giving off a nice smell when burned.
Ancient hand warmers had different designs. Round, square and octagonal shapes were typical, and there were also some fashioned shapes which looked like pumpkins, flowers and turtle shells. The patterns on the warmers would usually be animals or symbols with good meanings, such as deer, flowers or the Chinese characters for long life.

Where there is a will, there is a way
Have you heard of the saying “Where there is a will, there is a way”? It means if you are really determined to do something, however difficult it might be, you will eventually find a way to do it well. The important point is that you must have the will to achieve success.
Take me for example. Speaking English used to be difficult for me. In Grade 7, I couldn’t speak English clearly and my classmates always laughed at me. With my English teacher’s help, I made plans to improve it. I read English texts aloud for an hour every morning. I also made a foreign friend online. I talked to her twice a week. She helped me correct the way I spoke English. Day by day my spoken English improved a lot. Last month I won first prize in my school’s English Speech Contest.
This experience has taught me that nothing is too difficult as long as you make the decision to do it, just the saying goes, “Where there is a will, there is a way”.
