Even after I came out of the house, I wasnt frightened.”When help arrived, baby Ann and her mum were taken to hospital for treatment.

RelaxedYa Ming had taken me under her wing after hearing me speaking Chinese in a hotel in Lijiang. She had been hitchhiking(搭便车旅行) around China for months. She invited me to travel with her, which was how we ended up on the side of the road looking for a ride to the Tiger Leaping Gorge. Within 20 minutes, we had our first ride. The driver couldnt take us all the way and ended up dropping us at a freeway crossroads. As a new hitchhiker, I thought that would be the end of our luck, but almost immediately we got another ride.Our most unforgettable ride was when a twenty-something kid picked us up. He couldnt take us the whole way so his uncle bought us lunch and a bus ticket for the rest of the journey. He felt it was his duty to help us find a way to plete our trip. It brought tears of joy and thankfulness to my eyes. This was the first time I understood how guests are respected in China.A few weeks later, we said goodbye. I bought we had been so lucky because we had been a local and a foreigner traveling together. But now Ya Ming was no longer around to do the talking, nor did I have someone to depend on if something went wrong. When I stood by a highway in Sichuan, I knew all about the difficulties before me. Now I was just a strange foreigner on her own who suddenly had to manage with poor Chinese.After about 30 minutes, a couple picked me up and took me the whole eight hours to Chengdu. We ate lunch on the way, and they refused to allow me to pay for any of it, which I had e to learn was typical of Chinese culture. This made me believe that people weren t being friendly because of Ya Ming.28. What do the author and Ya Ming have in mon? A. They both are foreigners. B. They both live in Lijiang. C.

In 1842, Darwin and his wife Emma moved from London to Kent in southern England to have as little disturbance(烦扰) as possible. They already had two children then, and would go on to have eight more in the country. Darwin had very regular(有规律的)habits. He rose early and went for a walk. After breakfast he worked in his study until 9:30 am, his most productive time of the day, and then read his letters lying on the sofa before returning to work. At midday he would go for another walk with his dog, stopping at his greenhouse to inspect(查看)his experiments. Then he would go for another walk around an area of woodland. While walking on his “thinking path”, Darwin would consider his unsolved scientific problems. After lunch he read the newspaper and wrote letters. His network of friends provided information from all corners of the world. The Darwins were not very strict parents and the children were always seen running wild. Their father worked patiently to a background of playful shouts and little footsteps walking past his study door. After dinner Darwin played backgammon(a game for two people to play)with his wife. He once wrote, “Now the result with my wife in backgammon stands like this: she. has won only 2,490 games, while I have won, hurrah(a cheer of joy or victory), hurrah, 2,795 games!” Although he had poor health, Darwin continued to publish a lot of creative works until his final book in 1881. He died the following year, aged 73. Rather than a quiet space in the local churchyard, which he called “the sweetest place on Earth”, Darwin was given a state funeral(国葬)in Londons Westminster Abbey.32. Why did the Darwins move to Kent?A. To do more experimentsB. To cut their cost of livingC. To enjoy more peacefulnessD. To be together with their children 33. What did Darwin do every day?A. He studied in the woodsB. He started to work at 9:30 amC. He wrote letters in the morningD. He examined his experiments34. What did Darwins children probably think of him?A. Strict B. Sweet C. Cold D. Brave35. What is this text mainly about?A. Darwins scientific achievementsB. Darwins unusual state funeralC. Darwins personal lifeD.
