The movie Home Coming took the lead in the box office(票房) during the National Day holiday in 2022.
It tells a story that happened in North Africa. After a war breaks out there, two Chinese diplomats(外交官) are ordered to help evacuate the overseas Chinese. After completing the first task successfully, they learn that another group of Chinese citizens(公民) are still in great danger. Realizing that these people will die if they don’t give a hand, the two men travel through the war area. They risk their lives to help over 100 Chinese citizens go to a safe place. The movie not only shows how the two diplomats protect the people with courage, but also shows their deep love for the country and people.
Home Coming reminds many people of a similar real event which truly happened in Libya in 2011. Chinese Embassy(大使馆) helped the evacuation of more than 30,000 Chinese citizens. Behind this event were many efforts of Chinese diplomats. After watching the film, a man recalled his personal experience. “We are the lucky ones because we have a strong country and are well protected,” he said.
Home Coming is a success partly because of the growing national pride and confidence Chinese people have in our country. A comment(评论) reads, “Chinese passport might not get you anywhere you want, but it can always bring you back home.”

China has sent the final section of its Tiangong space station into space. After a 13-hour trip, the new section, known as Mengtian, docked(对接) with Tiangong space station on the early morning of November 1st, 2022, finally completing it. The new section was launched from Hainan Island in the south of China.
For years, China has been working hard to create its own space station. Last year, China began to launch three modules(舱) of Tiangong space station, one at a time. The main module, Tianhe, was launched in April 2021. It holds the power source and main controls for the station, as well as the astronauts’ living area. In July 2022, China launched its first laboratory module, Wentian, which is the country’s largest ever spacecraft.
The new module, Mengtian (meaning “dreaming of the heavens”), is also designed as a laboratory. It is about 18 meters long and has 8 special research areas for experiments(实验). Mengtian is set up so that experiments can also be run outside the module itself. Chinese astronauts can use special robotic arms to run experiments from inside Tiangong.
China’s space program is working with the European Space Agency on some experiments on the Mengtian, China says that one day, foreign astronauts will also be able to visit Tiangong.
Tiangong space station is expected to last 10 to 15 years. Though the Mengtian module completes the station, China could add more modules in the future.
China’s space program has grown greatly in recent years with a series of successes. In 2020, for example, its Chang’e 5 probe returned to the earth carrying moon rocks. Those were the first moon samples brought to the earth since the 1970s.
18. The meaning of the underlined word “launched” in the first paragraph is the closest to “________”.
A. sent up
B. landed
C. taken off
D. set up
.
19. Which module is the astronauts’ living area in?
A. Tianhe.
B. Wentian.
C. Mengtian.
D. It is not mentioned.
20. When was China’s largest spacecraft launched?
A. In 2020.
B. In April 2021.
C. In July 2022.
D. On November 1st, 2022.
21. Which of the following statements is TRUE?
A. No more modules can be docked with Tiangong in the future.
B. Chang’e 5 probe brought moon rocks back to the earth in 2020.
C. China created Tiangong space station together with European Space Agency.
D. Chinese astronauts can’t use robotic arms to run experiments from inside Tiangong.
D
Many people may throw away the pits inside fruits after eating them, but inheritors of nut carving（核雕继承人）have turned them into artworks instead.
Weifang nut carving goes back to the Qing Dynasty. During that time, an old imperial craftsman（皇家手艺人）Wang Dayan spread the skill to the local people in Shandong Province. Craftsmen back then often used peach pits（桃核）to show off their artistic skills. Because of the high level of carving skills needed, the traditional culture and its rich artistic theme, Weifang nut carving was listed as a national intangible cultural heritage（国家非物质文化遗产）in 2008.
“One nut, from 0.8 to 6 centimeters long, can be made into fan pendants, earrings, buttons, seals and so on,” said Tan Wanhai, 48, an inheritor of Weifang nut carving. Tan has studied the art of nut carving for 25 years and has created many nut carvings.
However, the craftsman also said that bringing this kind of artwork to life is not easy. “Unlike some pits like olive（橄榄）pits which have a flat surface, each peach pit has its own special texture（质地）like human fingerprints, “ Tan said, adding, that, craftsmen have to study each peach pit to carefully plan out their artwork.
Nut carving craftsmen also need to have knowledge in many areas. According to Tan, they have to master skills in painting, seal carving and calligraphy from many traditional cultures.
Thanks to their creative design and fresh ideas, Weifang nut carving artworks have been increasingly
welcomed by people in China. More people are learning the art and have even become inheritors to pass down the skill to young people.
“Now, the number of inheritors is about 1,000. But I believe it could be bigger. More craftsmen now give up the tradition of passing down the skill only through the family and open it up to anyone who is interested in learning the skill,” said Tan.
22 Weifang nut carving was listed as a national intangible cultural heritage because of ________.①the high level of carving skills needed
②its rich artistic theme ③the traditional culture
④the popularity around the world A. ①②③ B. ②③④ C. ①②④ D. ①②③④
23. What does the fourth paragraph mainly tell us?
A. The cultural value of nut carving.
B. The knowledge craftsmen have to master.
C. The inheritor and his carving artworks.
D. Difficulties craftsmen have.
24. What can we learn about the passage?
A. Weifang nut carving goes back to the Ming Dynasty.
B. Tan thinks there could be more inheritors of nut carving.
C. More craftsmen now give up the tradition of passing down the skill.
D. Each peach pit has a flat surface and it’s easy to carve on it.
25. What could be the best title for the passage?
A. Tan’s Nut Carving Achievements
B. Amazing Artworks in China
C. Carving Artworks out of Nut
D. The History of Nut Carving 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。
