Passage B
It was a cold, rainy day. My mother and I drove to the mountains. It was dangerous to make the two-hour journey along the highway in such weather. I didn't want to take the risk. But my mother advised that we go to see something at the top of the mountain.
After ten minutes' driving, we stopped the car and got out. Walking along a path, we turned at a corner. Gradually, the peace and silence of the place began to fill my mind. From the top of the mountain, I saw several fields full of flowers, shining like a carpet(地毯) before us. It looked as if the sun spilled(播撒) gold down the mountain.
A lot of questions came to my mind. Who created such beauty? Why? How?
As we moved on, we saw a sign that read, “Answers to the Questions I Know You Are Asking.”
The first answer was, “One Woman—Two Hands, Two Feet, and Very Little Brain.” The second was. “One at a Time.” The third, “Started in 1971.”
On our way home, I was so shocked by what we had seen. “She changed the world. One bulb(一株) at a time. She started almost 50 years ago. It was probably just the beginning of an idea, but she kept at it.” I said, “Imagine, if I had a dream and worked at it, just a little bit every day, what might I have achieved?”
My mother looked at me, smiling. “Start tomorrow.” She said, “Better yet, start today.”

D. we should enjoy every moment in life

Passage C
What are the cultural differences between China and the West? You might be able to find the answer in Cao Siyu's comics(漫画)
Cao, 32, was born in Beijing, but left home at 20 and has studied and lived in the US, the UK, and France for 12 years. Having seen so many cultures, Cao wanted to use her drawing skills to show the differences she has experienced. So she created the cartoon series Tiny Eyes Comics.
“My experience shows that although travel is much easier and faster today, the distance(距离) between cultures hasn't shortened,” Cao said, She hopes to build bridges and break down misunderstandings between different cultures. One of her cartoons shows water forms in different countries. Three glasses of water are shown. The glass of water from the US has ice; the one from France is full of sparkling water(气泡水) the one from China is steaming(冒热气的) .
Cao also uses her cartoons to show different ways of thinking and social customs. During the COVID-19 pandemic, she used her comics to explain why Chinese people prefer to wear masks while Western people don't. “Her simple pictures have played a big part in reflecting Chinese culture,” Italian magazine Grazia reported.
Many foreign readers say that Cao's comics help them understand China, while Chinese living abroad have felt that they are seen and understood.
She said that this voice has been the biggest motivation(动力) for her to keep creating.
( ) 51. Cao Siyu shows people the cultural differences by ________.
A. living abroad B. creating comics
C. writing for an Italian magazine D. talking about her experience
( ) 52. Cao's comic ideas come from her studies and life in ________ countries.

A. Travel is much easier and faster today B. Comics show us how we are different

Passage D
Dear Steve,
In your last e-mail, you said you wanted to buy a pet. Why not get one from an animal shelter(收容所) ?The big advantage is that you can save the life of a homeless animal that might die otherwise. You are able to offer the animal a good life. The money you paid to adopt your pet goes to the shelter. This means more animals can be saved and cared for.
Animal shelters are often run by volunteers, people that really care about animals. Some shelters even have programs to pair adopters with pets. They help you find a pet that's right for your lifestyle and home. Meet Your Match is one of them.
Thanks to Meet Your Match, I got my pet Ruffie. Ruffie is a cute dog. She was saved from a big fire when she was six months old. I have had her for over a year. She gets along well with everyone in my family, including my father's cat.
Other advantages are:
★Shelters get new animals every day, so there are always lots of choices.
★You can be sure the animal's health has been checked.
★Shelter animals cost less than animals from pet shops.
At least you should try a shelter first when you look for a pet. I'm sure you will have a surprise.
Yours,
Arl

CCTV reported that every year Chinese people throw away a lot of food; it can feed 200 million people for a year.
Do we have too much food? Of course not. According to the UN World Food Programme, there were over 925 million hungry people around the world in 2020. Six million children die of hunger every year.
Luckily, a number of people have realized the importance of saving food. Last November, Li Hong, a waitress in a restaurant in Nanjing, lost her job because she took some leftover(剩余的) food home for her son. Many people were on her side and criticized(批评) the waste behavior.
What should we do in our daily life to waste less food? Here are some tips:
①Don't order too much food in a restaurant. Only order as much as you want to eat. If you cannot eat all the food you order, take the rest of it home.
②Don't be too picky(挑剔的) about food. Some food may not taste great, but your body needs it.
③Don't keep too much food at home, especially vegetables and fruit.
