Shashiyu was once a poor village in Hebei Province, but now it has changed into a rich and livable place.
In the 1940s, villagers in Shashiyu had little food and few clothes, but they had a strong wish for a better life. Zhang Guishun, the Party secretary of Shashiyu, encouraged his villagers to do their best to pull themselves out of poverty. “In the ancient Chinese story, Yu Gong could move mountains with his strong will and hard work, why can’t we? Nobody was born to be poor?” Hearing his words, the villagers decided to make a difference.
Led by the Communist Party of China（中国共产党）, the villagers carried water and soil to their village from faraway places to improve their land. From 1966 to. 1971, they reclaimed（开垦）lots of land and greatly improved their life.
However, the village encountered a new problem two decades later as the environment became heavily polluted by chemical plants and mine refineries built in 1990s.
The polluting factories were shut down in 2004, and villagers started grape cultivation, which soon became a main industry in Shashiyu.
In 2009, the city-level government invested over 1 million yuan($152, 723) to change the village’s exhibition hall into a museum in memory of development efforts made by earlier generations.
After 10 years, the village was called “National Forest Village”.
Zhang said that the village started a yearly tourism festival in 2015 to attract travelers to pick grapes. “The grapes could be sold at a better price once Shashiyu becomes famous through this festival. Our villagers can then live even better lives,” he said.
11. Why did Zhang Guishun use the story of Yu Gong to encourage the villagers?
A. Because Yu Gong had strong will and hard work.
B. Because Yu Gong was born poor too.
C. Because the villagers worshiped Yu Gong.
D. Because Yu Gong became rich at last.
12. From 1966 to 1971, what did the villagers do to improve their living situation?
A. They planted grapes to earn money.
B. They carried water and soil to their village to improve their lands.
C. They moved to another place to live a better life.
D. They built a lot of factories.

B
When I was a girl growing up, I cannot once ever remember either my mum or my grandma wasting food.
Anything we didn't eat at one meal was leftovers（剩菜）. I can remember my grandma making a huge pot of potatoes. We would all eat until we were full enough, but there were always about half of the potatoes leftover. A few days later, Grandma would take those potatoes out of the fridge, boil some noodles, add some vegetables and mix them all together. And I also remember when I watched my mum fry bacon （煎培根）for us in the mornings, she would always take the oil carefully and pour it into a bottle. Then she would use it later to add flavor to so many other dishes. I was an adult before I realized that potatoes didn't actually taste like bacon!
I learned their lessons well, and after I grew up, I tried to never waste food myself. I always planned the week’s meals ahead of time and only bought what was on my shopping list so that nothing went to waste. Every meal went into our stomachs and any leftovers were later eaten by either myself my boys, my husband or my dogs. To me, throwing food into the bin was just wrong.
However, when it comes to living, there are no leftovers. Life is just like a feast. Each moment that you don’t live is lost forever. Life cannot be saved or stored. Each day is a fresh beginning. Live each moment of your life to the fullest, then.
16. The writer’s grandma used the leftover potatoes to ________.
A. mix with noodles B. boil some vegetables
C. fry bacon D. throw away
17. Why did the potatoes cooked by the writer’s mum taste like bacon?
A. Because she mixed the bacon with potatoes.
B. Because she put potatoes into the containers.
C. Because she was good at cooking.
D. Because she poured the bacon oil into potatoes.
18. According to the passage, how did the writer save food in her way?
A. By shopping ahead of time.
B. By throwing it into the litter bin.
C. By following her mother's shopping list.
D. By planning the next week’s food.
19. What does the underlined word "feast" in the last paragraph probably mean?
A. Sweat dream. B. Large meal. C. Happy story. D. Beautiful picture.
20. What can we learn from the last two paragraphs?
A. It is never too old to learn.
B. Eat to live, but not live to eat.
C. Neither food nor life should be wasted.
D. There is no such thing as a free lunch.
C
Can plants talk? Modern research has found something amazing: they do communicate with each other.
It has been known for some time that plants use chemicals to conunicate with each other. This happens when a plant gets atacked by insects. The plant gives out chemicals from the leaves that are being eaten. This is like a warning, or a call for help: “I’m being attacked!” When another plant gets the chemicals, it starts to give out its own, different chemicals. Some of these chemicals drive insects away. Others attract the wasps（黄蜂; 蜜蜂）! The wasps kill the insects that are eating the plants. Scientists hope to learn more about this plant warning system, so that we can use it to grow more crops.
More surprisingly, plants also use sound to communicate. People can’t hear these sounds; but plants are making them. Some plants make noises with their roots. Com and chili plants do this. Some trees make clicking noises when there is not enough water.
Most surprisingly of all, plants have an amazing system of communication that can link nearly every plant in a forest. Scientists call this system the “wood wide web” . The wood wide web is linked underground by fungi（霉菌）. It links the roots of different plants to each other. It is in some ways similar to the Internet we use. Using the wood wide web, plants can share information and even food with each other. However, it may lead to bad effects. Plants may use it to steal food from each other, or spread chemicals to attack other plants. Perhaps one day scientists will learn how to create a “firewall” to help prevent these attacks within the wood wide web.
Scientists are learning more every day about the secret ways in which plants talk to each other. Maybe one day we will know enough about plant communication to be able to “talk” with them ourselves.
21. What will plants do when they are attacked by insects?
A. They will kill the insects by themselves.
B. They will control the wasps to kill the insects.
C. They will send out signals to ask for help.
D. They will produce chemicals as a warning or a call for help.
22. How are the wood wide web linked by fungi?
A. By making noises with their roots.
B. By connecting the roots of different plants to each other.
C. By sharing food and information with each other.
D. By spreading chemicals to each other.
23. What is the writer’s intention of the last paragraph?
A. To give people hope for further studies.
B. To praise scientists for their great achievements.
C. To call on people to protect the plants on Earth.
D. To inspire people to communicate with plants.
24. What is the structure of the passage?
A. B.
C. D.
25. Which is the best title for the passage?
A. The Secret Language of Plants
B. The Study about the Plant Warning System
C. The Plants that Give Warnings
D. Why Scientists Do Research about Plants
