Zheng,22,was born in Taiwan.But,because her parents are from different sides of the Taiwan Straits — her mother is from Fujian province,while her father is from Jiayi,Taiwan — she has felt the connection between the island and the Chinese mainland from a very young age.
Currently studying at Hunan University,Zheng has taken part in various cross-Straits exchanges but she's always wanted to do something food-related,since it's not only her personal passion,but also,she believes,a passion shared by people across the Taiwan Straits.
So,during this past Spring Festival,Zheng set up a stand on the streets of Taiwan's Beigang to sell renaibao (hot rice cream),a trendy kind of "ice cream cone" that originated in Henan province.
Initially worrying that people would hesitate to try something they were not familiar with,Zheng was quickly overwhelmed by the enthusiasm of the crowd.The sales easily went beyond her expectations — she sold more than 200 renaibao on her first day.
"It was not just a business," says Zheng. "I was deeply affected by the enthusiasm of everyone I met."
This enthusiasm,Zheng believes,is thanks to online video platforms like TikTok,Xiaohongshu and Bilibili.According to her,she and her high school friends used to watch online cooking videos together of,for example,the Tianjin-style jianbing guozi — known as Chinese crepes. They were so addicted to it that Zheng can still remember the process,step-by-step,in detail.Among her customers were also those who learned about the snack she was selling from just such a video.
Zheng is planning to bring home more trendy foods from the mainland,so that more people can experience their wonderful flavor.She would also love it if her friends in Taiwan can join her for an exchange of knowledge and travel in the mainland.
(1)What made Zheng set up a street stand? AA
A.Her preference for the food business.
B.Her parents' long lasting influence.
C.One cross-Straits exchange program.
D.The great value Chinese attach to food.
(2)How did Zheng mainly feel on her first selling day? CC
A.Proud.
B.Concerned.
C.Surprised.
D.Curious.
(3)Why were the customers so enthusiastic about renaibao? DD
A.They had ever tasted it somewhere,before.
B.They liked this new flavor in particular.
C.They wanted to do something food-related.
D.They had known it on some video platforms.
(4)What does the underlined word "They" in paragraph 6 refer to? CC
A.Video platforms.
B.Chinese crepes.
C.Zheng and her friends.
D.Online cooking videos.

1.Nuclear bombs.That's the go-to answer for incoming space objects like asteroids(小行星) and comets,as far as Hollywood is concerned.Movies like Deep Impact and Armageddon rely on nuclear weapons,delivered by stars like Bruce Willis,to save the world and deliver the drama.
But planetary defense experts say in reality,if astronomers spotted a dangerous incoming space rock,the safest and best answer might be something more subtle,like simply pushing it off course by crashing it with a small spacecraft.
That's just what NASA did on Monday evening,when a spacecraft headed straight into an asteroid called Dimorphous,which is around 7 million miles away and poses no threat to Earth.It's about 525 feel across and orbits another larger asteroid.
In images streamed as the impact neared,the egg-shaped asteroid grew in size from a little spot on screen to have its full rocky surface come quickly into focus before the signal went dead as the craft hit right on target.
Events happened exactly as engineers had planned,they said,with nothing going wrong. "As far as we can tell,our first planetary defense test was a success," said Elena Adams,the mission systems engineer,who added that scientists looked on with "both terror and joy" as the spacecraft neared its final destination.
The impact was the peak of NASA's Double Asteroid Redirection Test (DART) ,a 7-year and more than ﹩300 million effort which launched a space vehicle in November of 2021 to perform humanity's first ever test of planetary defense technology.It will be about two months,scientists said,before they will be able to determine if the impact was enough to drive the asteroid slightly off course,probably shortening its original orbit.
NASA plans to launch an asteroid-hunting space telescope named NEO Surveyor in 2026. "We've tacked lots of space rocks,especially the larger ones that could cause extinction-level events.Thankfully,none currently threaten Earth.But many asteroids the size of Dimorphous haven't yet been discovered,and those could potentially take out a city if they came crashing down." explains Lindley Johnson,NASA's Planetary Defense Officer.
(1)How did scientists know the craft hit the asteroid successfully?
A.The signal from the craft was lost as it hit the target.
B.They recorded the whole process with a telescope.
C.The little spot on the screen suddenly disappeared.
D.They monitored the craft with satellites in space.
(2)What is the purpose of launching the spacecraft?
A.To search for evidence of alien life.
B.To end the asteroid's threat to Earth.
C.To save the world and deliver a drama.
D.To test technology for defending Earth.
(3)What can be inferred about Dimorphous?
A.It is a dangerous incoming space rock.
B.It is an egg-shaped asteroid around Earth.
C.It may orbit the same asteroid after the hit.
D.It is expected to blow up after the impact.
(4)Which statement will Lindley Johnson probably agree with?
A.Asteroids are equally destructive whatever the size.
B.NEO Surveyor is aimed to track smaller asteroids.
C.Larger asteroids will no longer threaten Earth.
D.NASA is responsible for the safety of Earth.發(fā)布:2024/12/11 2:0:1組卷:6引用:4難度:0.5 -
