In this challenge, young petitors must write Chinese characters by hand. To prepare for the petition, the petitors usually spend months studying dictionaries. Perhaps the shows popularity should not be a surprise. Along with gunpowder and paper, many Chinese people consider the creation of Chinese calligraphy(书法)to be one of their primary contributions to civilization. Unfortunately, all over the country, Chinese people are forgetting how to write their own language without puterized help. Software on smart phones and puters allows users to type in the basic sound of the word using the Latin alphabet. The correct character is chosen from a list. The result? Its possible to recognize characters without remembering how to write them.But theres still hope for the paint brush. Chinas Education Ministry wants children to spend more time learning how to write.In one Beijing primary school we visited, students practice calligraphy every day inside a specially decorated classroom with traditional Chinese paintings hanging on the walls. Soft music plays as a group of six-year-olds dip brush pens into black ink. They look up at the blackboard often to study their teachers examples before carefully attempting to reproduce those characters on thin rice paper. “If adults can survive without using handwriting, why bother to teach it now?” we ask the calligraphy teacher, Shen Bin. “The ability to write characters is part of Chinese tradition and culture,” she reasons. “Students must learn now so they dont forget when they grow up.” says the teacher.24. What can we learn about the Character Hero?A. Its open to people of all ages and all walks.B. Its the most-viewed TV programs in China.C. It aims to spread Chinese culture to the world.D. It draws great public attention across the country.25. Why are Chinese people forgetting how to write the characters?A. Chinese people dont refer to dictionaries very often.B. Chinese people no longer use brush pens or practice calligraphy.C. Chinese people are using the Latin alphabet instead of the characters.D. Chinese people neednt write by hand as often with the help of technology.26. According to Shen Bin, being able to write characters by hand is_. A. necessary for adults to survive in China B. a requirement made by the Education Ministry C. helpful to keep Chinese tradition and culture alive D. an ability to be developed only when you are students27. Where does this text probably e from? A. A news report.B. A science report.C. An advertisement.D. Childrens literature.CNext time you hear a funny joke youd better not laugh too hard. According to a paper published by the British Medical Journal, laughter isnt always the bestmedicine. Sometimes it can even be harmful. Professor Robin Ferner from the University of Birmingham, one of the authors of the study, found that bad things could happen to people who laughed too much. He says: “We found people with heartbeat problems which had stopped their heart, we found people who had fainted(昏倒), and we found people whoddislocated theirjawsor burst their lungs.”It seems that laughing can beno laughing matter. Butits not alldoom and gloom. Professor Ferner says there are benefits to laughing when you want tolose weight, for example. Yes, thats right: laugh and be slimmer! Professor Ferner explains that: “You use energy when you laugh, you move yourdiaphragm(横膈膜), you expand your lungs, and both those things can be helpful.”According to the research, laughing for a quarter of an hour can burn up to 40 calories, and if you laughed all day youd use up about 2,000 calories, which is what most people consume in a day. But dont do that or you might end up with apainfuljaw.Ouch! Or you might find people looking at you in afunnyway.But I dont want to finish this article leaving you feelingdesperate.

One young man said that his weekend had not been so good. He had his wisdom teeth removed. The young man then asked me why I always seemed to be so cheerful. “I choose to be cheerful.” I said. Then I told them a story.In addition to teaching here at UNLV, I also teach out at themunity collegein Henderson, 17 miles down thefreewayfrom where I live. One day I drove those 17 miles to Henderson. I exited the freeway and turned onto College Drive. I only had to drive another quarter mile down the road to the college. But just then my car died and wouldnt start again. So I left my car there and marched down the road to the college. As soon as I got there I called AAA (美国汽车协会)and arranged for a tow truck (拖车) to meet me at my car after class. The secretary in the office asked me what had happened. “This is my lucky day.” I replied, smiling. “Your car breaks down and today is your lucky day?” She was puzzled. “What do you mean?”“My car could have broken down anywhere along the freeway but it didnt.” I replied, “Instead, it broke down in the perfect place: off the freeway, within walking distance from here. Im still able to teach my class, and Ive been able to arrange for the tow truck to meet me after class.” The secretarys eyes opened wide, and then she smiled. I smiled back and headed for class. So ended my story.I scanned the sixty faces in my class at UNLV. Despite the early hour, no one seemed to be asleep. Somehow, my story had touched them. Or maybe it wasnt the story at all. In fact, it had all started with a students observation that I was cheerful. An Indian wise man once said, “Who you are speaks louder to me than anything you can say.” I suppose it must be so.32. Why did the author tell his students the story?A. To share his lucky experience.B. To make his class more lively.C. To draw all students attention.D. To encourage his students to be positive.33. What happened to the author on his way to the munity college?A. He parked his car in a perfect place. B. He called AAA for a tow truck to meet him.C. He covered the last quarter mile on foot. D. He drove off the freeway at a wrong exit.34. By saying “it wasnt the story at all”, the author means that_. A. His story is not convincingB. He shouldnt have told the storyC. His attitude to life has inspired the students D. His story is not as interesting as expected35. What can be concluded from the passage?A. Easier said than done.B. You are what you choose. C. Behind bad luck es good luck. D. A good beginning makes a good ending.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Here are tips for a successful speech from a professional speechwriter:No speech should last more than 20 minutes. 36 The Sermon on the Mount, a collection of sayings and teachings ofJesus, for example, lasted hardly more than three minutes.Focus on one topic.
