What do you know about Hainan? Apart from its warm sunshine, golden beaches and blue seas, the province has some other interesting features. This year marks the 30th anniversary of the establishment(建立) of Hainan province. It’s a good time for us to take a closer look at the island province.
China’s southernmost city
If you are bored of Hainan’s more popular tourist cities, such as Sanya and Haikou, you may want to go to Sansha instead. Sansha is China’s southernmost city. It includes many small islands, sandbanks and reefs in the Xisha, Zhongsha and Nansha island groups. Its government is seated on the island of Yongxing. Since Sansha was established in 2012, a hospital, a library and a movie theater have been built on Yongxing. Over 2.5 million plants have been planted there to protect the environment.
The “migratory birds”
Migratory birds fly from the north to the south in winter. In China, a group of people are also referred to as “migratory birds”. Every year, from October to April, people from all over China go on holiday to Hainan to enjoy the warm weather and fresh air. Most of them are elderly people from northern China, especially Northeast China. According to the Hainan local government, more than 1 million elderly choose to spend their winter in Hainan each year. These elderly “migratory birds” also encourage younger family members to join them on the sunny island.
A famous forum(论坛)
People in other countries might not know about Hainan, but they probably know about Boao. Boao, a town in Hainan, became China’s first permanent(永久的) site for hosting international meetings in 2001. Every year in April, the Boao Forum for Asia, a nongovernmental international organization, hosts its annual meetings. Officials, business people and experts from different countries come to Boao to discuss economic issues.
The forum has been important for the development of Asian cities. Hainan and Boao have both benefited (收益)greatly from hosting the conferences. More restaurants and hotels have been built, creating more jobs for locals. An airport was opened in 2016. The forum has helped Hainan build itself into an international tourism destination.
26. What’s the main idea of this passage?
A. A famous forum in Boao.
B. China’s southernmost city.
C. The elderly “migratory birds”.
D. Interesting features of Hainan.
27. What’s the purpose of holding a forum in Boao?
A. To develop Hainan.
B. To create jobs for locals.
C. To discuss economic issues.
D. To benefit from hosting the forum.
28. Which of the following sentences is TRUE according to the passage?
A. Besides Sanya and Haikou, Boao is another popular tourist city.
B. More than 1 million young couples go to Hainan in winter each year.
C. Every year in April, the Chinese government holds the Boao Forum for Asia.
D. Hainan has become an international tourism destination because of the forum.
C
Students decide to take a job while being in university because of two reasons: on the one hand, they need money; on the other hand, they want to experience something new and they want to see what working means. It is a good opportunity(机会)to know about the society and realize the importance of co-working with others.
But is it good to take a iob while you are a university student? There are both advantages and disadvantages if we were to answer this question. If we were to think about the advantages, we could mention the ones we have just discussed. Having a job at an early age helps us gain experience, which will be very useful to our later life. We may become financially independent (经济独立)and don't need to ask our parents for money each time we want to go downtown with our friends, or spend the holiday at the seaside or in the mountains.
However, students who take a job might have problems in spending enough time on their study. If they work during the day, they may have to be absent from their classes, and if they work at night they will feel tired the next day. They may choose to stay at home resting. What's worse, some students may even get bored with studying.
Well, this fact happens every now and then, but there are cases when well-prepared students take a part-time job but at the same time they make time for studying, too. And they have good results. Their case is a good example to follow among the students who decide to work while being in university. Anyway, we need to keep in mind that study is the most important job for a student.
29. What is the benefit for college students who take a job according to the passage?
A. Making more friends.
B. Preparing them for their future careers.
C. Winning free journeys.
D. Having complete independence from their family.
30. The writer implies(暗示)that college students __________ in the last paragraph.
A. had better take a part-time job during vacation
B. should not take a job
C. can keep a balance between work and study
D. should learn by doing
31. From the passage, we can know that taking a job during university years ______.
A. is much like a coin with two sides
B. is much like a cake with fruit in it
C. has more negative(消极的) influences
D. has more positive(积极的) influences
D
There was a king who had twelve beautiful daughters. They slept in twelve beds or in one room and when they went to bed, the doors were shut and locked up. However, every morning their shoes were found to be quite worn through as if they had been danced in all night. Nobody could find out how it happened or where the princesses had been.
So the king made it known to all the land that if any person could discover the secret and find out where it was that the princesses danced in the night, he would have the one he liked best to take as his wife, and would be king after his death. But whoever tried and did not succeed, after three days and nights, they would be put to death.
A lord’s son soon came. He w as well entertained, and in the evening was taken to the room next to the one where the princesses lay in their twelve beds. There he was to sit and watch where they went to dance. In order that nothing could happen without him hearing it, the door of his room was left open. But the lord's son soon fell asleep and when he woke in the morning he found that the princesses had all been dancing, for their shoes were full of holes.
The same thing happened the second and the third night so the king ordered his head to be cut off. After him came several others, but they all had the same luck, and all lost their lives in the same way. It happened that an old soldier, who had been wounded in a war and could fight no longer passed through the country where this king ruled, and as he was travelling through a wood, he met an old woman who was a witch(巫婆). The witch decided to help him to do the task as a reward so that he could marry one of the princesses. The witch told him that he should not drink the wine because there was poison in it. In this way he would not fall asleep.
Of course, the soldier found the truth with the witch’s help. And the king was very satisfied. So he gave his country as well as one of his daughters to the soldier as his wife.
32.Why was the lord's son killed?
A. Because he was very lazy.
B. Because he was always sleeping in the night.
C. Because he made holes in the princesses’ shoes.
D. Because he failed to find out the truth.
33.Several others failed to do the task because_________.
A. they were as lazy as the lord's son
B. they drank the wine with poison
C. they refused to marry anyone of the princesses
D. they could not run fast to follow the princesses
34.We may infer(推测) from the passage that________.
A. the lord's son did not know the wine is poisonous
B. the witch ever saw the lord's son once
C. the soldier could not fight because of old age
D. the lord’s son died of poison in the wine
35.The passage may be written for _________.
A. young children
B. college students
C. office workers
D. women dancers

Many people believe that classical music is not relevant（合适的）to young people today. However, this issue (问题) frequently causes heated debate（辩论）.
Some people say that classical music is associated（有联系）only with old people. For example, if you look at the audience at a classical concert , the majority（大多数）is over the age of fifty.
Others say it is more popular than we first imagine. Many young people listen to classical music without realizing. It is often used in films and advertisements. For example, a famous piece of classical music was used as the theme music for the 1990 World Cup . Not many people could have given its name, but millions enjoyed it .
Also, some people point out that young people produce new music based on classical ideas: for example, it is said that rap（说唱）music was invented by a classical musician in 1912, but it is now used by young people in pop music.
However, young people point to the fact that classical music has been outstripped（超越）by technology. To play a classical instrument, such as a violin, you need to study hard and practise for hours. Nowadays, you don't need to get aching arms from practising. A teenager can write and make music using a computer program in the comfort of his own bedroom.
A final point you should remember in mind is that the term "classical music" is used to refer to a great variety of music, from jazz to pieces for large orchestras（管弦乐队）. This makes it even more difficult to say whether classical music is relevant to young people.
So, it may be only a minority of young people who play classical instruments , but when it comes to enjoying classical music, it depends on the piece of music. It may be more relevant to young people in the modern world than they realize!
