“What is your favorite Chinese dish ” Ask any foreigner this question, and most answers you get must be Kung Pao chicken! But how much do you know this foreigner’s favorite Chinese dish
What is the meaning of Kung Pao We need to look at the four Chinese words. “gong” means “palace”; “bǎo” means “guard (保卫)”; “jī” means chicken; “dīng” means small pieces. If we put them together, it can be understood as “palace guards chicken pieces”.
But where did the name come from We need to talk about Ding Baozhen—the man who gave us Kung Pao chicken. Ding was a governor of Sichuan during Qing Dynasty. When Ding was a child, he fell into a river. He could not swim, but a family passing by saved him and brought him home. At their home, they served Ding a delicious chicken dish (the earliest Kung Pao chicken). Ding loved it very much and always remembered it. Years later, when Ding became a rich and powerful man, he invited that family to his house. The family cooked him the same dish and Ding soon made this dish popular all over Sichuan. In the late 1800s, Ding was given the title of “gōng bǎo” (the person who guards the palace).
Soon, people started calling him Ding Gongbao, and giving his favorite dish a name after him—Gongbao chicken. The English name Kung Pao sounds just the same as Chinese.
This dish appears on the menus almost everywhere in the world. Different countries and even cities in China have different ways to cook it. ▲ You have to ask some old cooks in Sichuan. They think three things—dried Sichuan peppers, sugar and vinegar are quite important, and the Sichuan pepper is the most important one. It is hard to buy it for many people outside Sichuan. That is probably why they cannot get the best taste.
Next time, when you are eating Kung Pao chicken with others, you can tell them many fun facts about this dish!
32. How does the writer develop his idea in the beginning
A. By giving numbers. B. By asking questions. C. By showing a report. D. By telling a story.
33. Which of the following sentences can be put in ________
A. But where you can eat the most traditional Kung Pao chicken
B. So it is impossible to get the most traditional taste of this dish.
C. But how can we cook the most traditional Kung Pao chicken
D. And people in different places have different ideas about this.
34. According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE
A. Sichuan pepper is the most important to make good Kung Pao chicken.
B. The words “gōng bǎo” mean the strong and rich person in Qing Dynasty.
C. Ding created this dish by himself when he was the governor of Sichuan.
D. At first Ding did not like Kung Pao chicken but later he really missed it.
35. What’s the purpose of writing this passage
A. To tell us the story of Ding Baozhen.
B. To report different sides of Ding Baozhen’s life.
C. To show us the delicious history of Kung Pao chicken.
D. To suggest the ways of making the best Kung Pao chicken.

①Have you ever been on a plane and felt that sudden bump (碰撞), causing your stomach to drop That’s turbulence (气流), and it’s a normal part of air travel. Turbulence can be scary, but here’s something that can reduce your fears.
②Turbulence can be caused by three things: mountains, jet streams, and storms. Air forms waves (波) when it meets with mountains. These “mountain waves” can break up into turbulence. Jet streams, fast moving winds high above the earth, can also cause turbulence. Storms are the most common cause. The fast growth of storm clouds pushes air away, creating waves that can turn into turbulence. Each of these can cause “clear air turbulence”, or CAT, the least noticeable type. It’s hard to predict, and it can happen suddenly.
③Part of the nervousness around turbulence is the fear of the aircraft failing (飞机故障). It’s a natural feeling, especially when you once had the experience of watching a wing bend (弯曲) in a seemingly impossible way. “Before flying, everything on wing bending has been tested. In fact, a little wing bending during turbulence is a good thing, as it shows the plane is able to deal with the stress,” explains Marilyn Smith, an engineer at Georgia Tech.
④If you are a nervous flyer, there are a few ways to plan for and deal with turbulence during the flight.
⑤“Turbulence is the worse at the back of the plane and it’s usually the most serious in the mid-afternoon,” says Heather Poole, a flight attendant (空乘) for 21 years. So, try to take a morning flight and sit at the front of the plane.” She also advises talking to the flight attendants if you are feeling nervous, as they can offer help.
⑥The fear mostly comes from losing a sense of control. Learn more about turbulence and enjoy your flight next time!
36. Which is NOT true according to the passage
A. Turbulence is very common during an air travel.
B. “Clear air turbulence” is hard for people to notice.
C Storms cause turbulence because of the growth of clouds.
D. Wing bending in turbulence means possibility of aircraft failing.
37. What can we infer from the passage
A. Only in stormy weather do planes meet with turbulence.
B. Flight attendants can help the passengers with fears from turbulence.
C. By learning how turbulence happens and what you can do, you will feel better.
D. You can try to take a morning flight and sit at the front if you are a nervous flyer.
38. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage
A. Turbulence: Its Relation to Weather B. Turbulence: Its Risk to Flight Safety
C. Is It Necessary to Fear Turbulence D. Is It Possible to Get Away from Turbulence

【答案】例文
Teamwork Makes the Dream Work
As an old saying goes “Ten thousand lines can pull a boat”, with great teamwork, we can achieve remarkable results. It shows us how important the teamwork is. I also learn this from an unforgettable experience.
Last Friday afternoon, we had a basketball match against Class Three. At the beginning, we all tried to show each other to be the best player. We just ran around and didn’t pass the ball to others. Soon we fell behind. During the break, our coach advised us to work together as a team. “You have to learn that soccer is a team sport,” he said.
We followed his advice. In the end, we won the game and each of us felt happy.
This experience made me understand that a team sport award was not just about “me”, it was about “us”. I realize deeply that in a team, we can’t achieve success no matter how excellent each one is. The key to success is great teamwork.

What is the meaning of Kung Pao We need to look at the four Chinese words. “gong” means “palace”; “bǎo” means “guard (保卫)”; “jī” means chicken; “dīng” means small pieces. If we put them together, it can be understood as “palace guards chicken pieces”.
But where did the name come from We need to talk about Ding Baozhen—the man who gave us Kung Pao chicken. Ding was a governor of Sichuan during Qing Dynasty. When Ding was a child, he fell into a river. He could not swim, but a family passing by saved him and brought him home. At their home, they served Ding a delicious chicken dish (the earliest Kung Pao chicken). Ding loved it very much and always remembered it. Years later, when Ding became a rich and powerful man, he invited that family to his house. The family cooked him the same dish and Ding soon made this dish popular all over Sichuan. In the late 1800s, Ding was given the title of “gōng bǎo” (the person who guards the palace).
Soon, people started calling him Ding Gongbao, and giving his favorite dish a name after him—Gongbao chicken. The English name Kung Pao sounds just the same as Chinese.
This dish appears on the menus almost everywhere in the world. Different countries and even cities in China have different ways to cook it. ▲ You have to ask some old cooks in Sichuan. They think three things—dried Sichuan peppers, sugar and vinegar are quite important, and the Sichuan pepper is the most important one. It is hard to buy it for many people outside Sichuan. That is probably why they cannot get the best taste.
Next time, when you are eating Kung Pao chicken with others, you can tell them many fun facts about this dish!

①Have you ever been on a plane and felt that sudden bump (碰撞), causing your stomach to drop That’s turbulence (气流), and it’s a normal part of air travel. Turbulence can be scary, but here’s something that can reduce your fears.
②Turbulence can be caused by three things: mountains, jet streams, and storms. Air forms waves (波) when it meets with mountains. These “mountain waves” can break up into turbulence. Jet streams, fast moving winds high above the earth, can also cause turbulence. Storms are the most common cause. The fast growth of storm clouds pushes air away, creating waves that can turn into turbulence. Each of these can cause “clear air turbulence”, or CAT, the least noticeable type. It’s hard to predict, and it can happen suddenly.
③Part of the nervousness around turbulence is the fear of the aircraft failing (飞机故障). It’s a natural feeling, especially when you once had the experience of watching a wing bend (弯曲) in a seemingly impossible way. “Before flying, everything on wing bending has been tested. In fact, a little wing bending during turbulence is a good thing, as it shows the plane is able to deal with the stress,” explains Marilyn Smith, an engineer at Georgia Tech.
④If you are a nervous flyer, there are a few ways to plan for and deal with turbulence during the flight.
⑤“Turbulence is the worse at the back of the plane and it’s usually the most serious in the mid-afternoon” says Heather Poole, a flight attendant (空乘) for 21 years. So, try to take a morning flight and sit at the front of the plane.” She also advises talking to the flight attendants if you are feeling nervous, as they can offer help.
⑥The fear mostly comes from losing a sense of control. Learn more about turbulence and enjoy your flight next time!
36. Which is NOT true according to the passage
A. Turbulence is very common during an air travel.
B. “Clear air turbulence” is hard for people to notice.
C. Storms cause turbulence because of the growth of clouds.
D. Wing bending in turbulence means possibility of aircraft failing.
37. What can we infer from the passage
A. Only in stormy weather do planes meet with turbulence.
B. Flight attendants can help the passengers with fears from turbulence.
C. By learning how turbulence happens and what you can do, you will feel better.
D. You can try to take a morning flight and sit at the front if you are a nervous flyer.
38. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage
A. Turbulence: Its Relation to Weather B. Turbulence: Its Risk to Flight Safety
C. Is It Necessary to Fear Turbulence D. Is It Possible to Get Away from Turbulence
39. If we put the passage into three parts, which of the following is the best
A. ①②;③;④⑤⑥ B. ①;②③④⑤;⑥
C. ①;②③④;⑤⑥ D. ①②;③④;⑤⑥
