His chemistry experiments have attracted over 2 million followers in just a few months. Evans is a chemistry professor at Beijing University of Chemical Technology. The 60-year-old always wears a white lab coat, a pair of safety goggles (护目镜， and smiles often. Some web users say he looks just like “the Grandpa of KFC. Evans has posted videos of various experiments. His most popular experiments have attracted millions of hits on video-sharing apps. Excited children's cheers and shouts can be heard in his videos. “I hope my experiments can arouse people's interest in science, he says.Evans has been interested in China since childhood. In the early 1970s, before the reform and opening-up, he viewed China as “a country full of mysteries. He first visited the Chinese mainland in 1987 to attend a chemistry conference in Nanjing, Jiangsu Province. He quit his job in the United Kingdom and moved to Beijing in 1996. Many of his friends thought he was crazy. But Evans said they just saw China's challenges but not its potential. Since 2022, Evans has turned to the Internet to popularize science. He learned short-video apps are also popular in small cities and rural areas. And he realized this enables him to reach more students, who lack opportunities to perform fun experiments. But even a one-minute video requires a considerable amount of work. Still, he thinks it's worth it to fulfill his responsibility to popularize science. His experiments always fill schools lecture halls with laughter. Some viewers call him “a Harry Potter-like magician, but he disagrees. “ A magician never tells the secrets behind his tricks, but a scientist always gives an explanation. He sees himself as a teacher. He performs experiments to spread knowledge, inspire thinking, remove misunderstandings and show that science can create change. Evans says he looks forward to more “chemical reactions with China.24. Who is David Evans according to the passage?A. A manager of KFC. B. A film celebrity.C. A chemistry teacher. D.

But it is true that kung fu is a big part of Chinese culture. Like most people from the West, I was first introduced to kung fu through Hong Kong action films. Stars like Bruce Lee and Jackie Chan made kung fu popular in the Western world. The flashy and impressive performances they gave in films like Rumble in the Bronx and Enter the Dragon made them household names in the U.S. and elsewhere.However, my own personal interest in kung fu was actually inspired by a hip hop group. Wu-Tang Clan, founded in the early 1990s in New York City, is one of the most influential hip hop groups in history.In their songs, they sometimes mention philosophical concepts that come from Wudang quana classic Chinese martial art from which they take their nameand Shaolin Temple. I was just a teenager when I first started listening to Wu-Tang Clanlittle did I know that I would actually end up living in China later in my life!I myself do not practice kung fu. However, the concepts behind it are quite interesting to me. There is a Bruce Lee quote that I often think of when I'm struggling with challenges in life. “Be formless, shapeless, like water, he once said. By this, he meant that you should be ready to adapt to and change your attitudes or beliefs when you face difficulties. I think this is a good way to deal with life.28. What does “a silly belief in Paragraph 1 refer to?A. All Chinese people can do kung fu.B. China is most famous for its kung fu.C. Kung fu is a big part of Chinese culture.D. Many Westerners admire kung fu.29. What inspired the author's interest in kung fu?A. Hong Kong action movies.B. A TV program about kung fu.C. Kung fu stars in Hollywood.D. A US hip hop group.30. What do we know about the Wu-Tang Clan?A. They have Chinese culture in their songs.B. They taught the author how to do Wudang quan.C. They performed Chinese martial arts in the U.S.D. They showed the author the way to live in China.31. What can we learn from the last paragraph?A. The author was sorry that he couldn't do kung fu.B. The concepts of kung fu change over time.C. The spirit of kung fu helps the author overcome difficulties.D. Bruce Lee was the most popular martial arts master.DLanguage learning apps are very popular now and offer opportunities to learn vocabulary and practice grammar. But there has been a discussion about just how effective such apps can be. Among the most popular apps are Duolingo and Busuu. A former research found positive results on the use of them. But it mainly concentrated on studies with learners who had signed up for language courses and these apps worked as an after-class support, so the results were not always reliable. A recent study of 4,095 Busuu users has been carried out to find out if users can actually learn a language with an app.Busuu provides learning materials for 12 different languages. It offers special models where some contents are ready for use for free while some contents are not. We find that its users are an even mix of men and women. More than half consider themselves to be at the beginner level because there is a reduction in users as their language levels go up. Most people use the app because of personal interest, or because they want to study or live abroad. Female users are likely to use it less often but for longer periods of time than male users.Feedback in the app is highly thought of. More than 92% of the users say that the app has met their expectations and 86% consider the app as very good or good. In fact, more than 80% of the users surveyed strongly agree that using the app has helped them improve their knowledge of the language they are learning.Besides, language learning apps also create an environment where mistakes are only known to the users, and this can address the performance nervousness that many learners suffer from when asked to speak a foreign language. So language teachers should encourage their students to use them to do the grammar work, leaving precious class time for more language communication.32. What's the reason why the results of the former research weren't always reliable?A. It was only carried out before class.B. It only considered users of a limited有限的kind.C. It just focused on positive results.D. It used out-of-date methods.33. What can we learn about the app Busuu from the text?A. All the contents are free to use.B. Most users consider it satisfying.C. It's used by more advanced learners.D. It's more popular with female learners.34. Which of the following can probably replace the underlined word “address?A. Deal with. B. Write down.C. Turn to. D. Speak of.35. What is the main idea of the text?A. Students won't suffer nervousness in learning languages by using Busuu.B. Language learning apps are effective and satisfactory to language learners.C. Language learning apps are very popular with most language teachers.D. Students should be required to use apps for homework after class.第二节共5小题；每题2分, 总分值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正确选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Improve your memorySome people often complain about their poor memory.
