This is a typical(典型的) day for Yang Jinlong.

At 9 a. m. , he drives to primary schools and middle schools in Xi’an, Shaanxi Province, to teach students about Shaanxi kuaiban. It is a traditional Chinese form of storytelling to the rhythm(节奏) of bamboo clappers(响板), which the art form is named after. Sometimes, he helps students prepare for competitions. Usually, his classes run until about 6. p.m. , and then he returns home to prepare classes for the next day.

On June 10, the Ministry of Culture and Tourism announced 325 national intangible cultural heritage(非物质文化遗产) items in Beijing, increasing the list to 1, 557 items. Shaanxi kuaiban, which appeared during the late Qing Dynasty, has been included. The art form has been introduced to local schools as part of their art education.

Yang has been teaching young people the art form since 2003 after graduating from the National Academy of Chinese Theatre Arts in Beijing. He studied quyi there. Quyi is general term for Chinese folk art forms, including storytelling, crosstalk and clapper talk.

“Art education is important for students in China. Just as many students learn to play Western musical instruments like the piano and violin, there are many people learning traditional Chinese folk arts, including Shaanxi kuaiban, which I’ll work for my whole life,” he said.

Kuaiban is popular in northern China, including Beijing and Tianjin. According to Yang, Shaanxi kuaiban was influenced by the art of different areas. The art form can be played by a group of players or only one. With one or two pairs of kuaiban of different sizes in hand, the players speak in the local dialect(方言) while telling stories, which are usually about heroes. The player tells stories while playing kuaiban, and it’s easy for the watchers to remember the stories since all the lines rhym.

Thanks to artists like Yang, this traditional Chinese form of storytelling is passed on and stays alive in our country.

(1). Why is today a typical day for Yang Jinlong?

A.

He is teaching students about kuaiban as usual.

B.

His work starts at 9 and lasts 6 hours like every day.

A.

It is named after the Shaanxi dialect.

B.

It is listed in the national intangible cultural heritage.

C.

It is more popular than the piano and violin in northern China.

D.

It is played to tell stories usually about common people.

(3). Which of the following best describes Yang Jinlong?

A.

Devoted.

B.

Stressed.

C.

Generous.

D.

Curious.

(4). Why does the writer report Yang Jinlong’s story?

A.

To show how to play Shaanxi kuaiban in the local dialect.

To tell the difference between Chinese and Western arts.

C.

To prove that kuaiban players are living a busy life.

D.

To praise the work of spreading traditional Chinese art.

Researchers are using an underwater drone (无人机) to get information on carbon dioxide (CO₂) levels in the ocean. It is believed to be the first time that such a device (装置) has been used purposely to test CO₂ levels.

The device, which the team also calls a glider, is designed to go down to 1,000 meters in deep ocean areas and can operate for weeks at a time.

The purpose of the research is to provide scientists with data (数据) about how climate change is influencing the ocean’s chemistry. The self-swimming drone was placed in the Gulf of Alaska this spring. Reporters from The Associated Press recently joined researchers on a boat in Alaska’s Resurrection Bay to see the drone in action.

The team says the project could be a major step forward in measuring(测量) the environmental health of oceans. The scientists are most interested in levels of ocean acidification(酸性). This happens when CO₂ emissions(排放) in the air make their way into the ocean. Ocean acidification can harm or kill some kinds of sea life.

Scientists have connected CO₂ emissions with global(全球) warming caused by human activities.

In a way, oceans have given humans a helping hand by taking in(吸收) some of the CO₂. If there were no oceans’ uptake, there would be much more CO₂ in the air. This would trap more of the sun’s heat and further warm the Earth.

“But the problem now is that the ocean is changing its chemistry because of this uptake,” said team member Claudine Hauri.

One of the best ways to measure ocean acidification is to collect CO₂ measurements. Until now, these collections were mostly done from ships or with devices floating at the ocean surface or on the ocean floor.

(1). What is probably this passage?

A.

An advertisement.

B.

Part of a news report.

C.

Part of a science fiction.

D.

A text from a chemistry textbook.

(2). What do we know about a glider?

A.

It must be used together with floating devices.

B.

It is used to measure ocean acidification.

C.

It is used to stop CO₂ from entering the ocean.

D.

It is used to measure CO₂ levels in the air.

(3). What does the underlined word “uptake” in Paragraph 6 most probably mean?

A.

The act of covering an area.

B.

The act of slowing something down.

C.

The act of taking something in.

D.

The act of killing or harming something.

(4). What is troubling the scientists?

A.

The underwater drone can’t swim by itself.

B.

The drone can only last one week at a time.

C.

Oceans are stopping taking in CO₂from the air.

D.

Too much CO₂ is making its way into oceans.

Being sad or in a low mood is a normal (正常的) part of life. Many people feel down from time to time. For example, when people face challenging events in their lives, such as financial(经济的) difficulty or major changes, it’s common to feel down. But in most cases the bad feelings slowly disappear.

As for depression(抑郁症), however, the bad mood lasts for weeks, months, or ever longer because it is a mental(精神的) illness. As the World Health Organization(WHO) noted, depression is a mood disorder. It shows in different ways, including loss of interest in normal activities and feelings of low self-worth. It often lasts for a long time and greatly harms a person’s ability at work or school or in the daily life. People with depression usually don’t like to talk about their problems with others. More seriously, depression may even lead to the act of killing oneself.

“Depression is not just a bout(一阵) of sadness or a sign of weaknessand you can’t just simply stop feeling depressed.” said the health news website www.mayoclinie.com.

But depression is not a person’s problem. It’s also more common than most people think. It is hurting about 280 million people around the world, according to WHO.

Though depression is worrying, we don’t have to be afraid of it. Depression can be treated by getting professional(专业的) help, taking medicine or a mixed treatment of both. In fact, when you begin to feel the danger of depression, you can try to deal with it early by yourself. Listening to music, doing some sports and drawing some pictures might help you feel better. Another useful way is talk therapy. When we are attacked by a low mood, having a conversation with others is of great help. Being honest about how we feel does not make us weak, it makes us human.

(1). Who is most probably experiencing depression?

A.

Lily, who is going to have an important exam and hasn’t slept well for 3 days.

B.

May, who dislikes her new school and has complained to her parents 3 times.

C.

Ben, who thinks life worthless and has cried alone over 3 times a week in the past month.

D.

Tom, who finds subjects hard and has talked to his teacher about it 3 times this week.

(2). What does the writer think of depression?

A.

Normal and nothing serious.

B.

Uncommon although harmful.

C.

Unavoidable and untreatable.

D.

Treatable although worrying.

(3). What’s the passage mainly about?

A.

Knowledge of depression.

B.

Ways of treating depression.

C.

Reasons for depression.

D.

Results of depression.
