Qingming Festival, also called Tomb-Sweeping Day, is a traditional Chinese holiday in early April. Families honor their ancestors（祖先）and welcome spring during this time. The festival usually happens on April 4th or 5th when the weather turns warm and nature becomes green.
Families visit their ancestors’ graves（墳?zāi)梗﹖o clean the tombs, offer flowers, and burn paper money as a sign of respect（尊重）. Nowadays, some people choose eco-friendly activities like planting trees or using flowers instead of fire. This helps protect the environment while remembering ancestors.
Qingming is not only about remembrance but also celebrating spring. People go on outings to parks or the countryside, a tradition called “Taqing”. They fly kites, have picnics, and enjoy blooming flowers. Many poets have written about Qingming. For example, Du Mu’s poem describes rainy weather and quiet reflection, reminding people to slow down and appreciate（欣賞）nature.
Food is also important. A popular snack is “qingtuan”—green rice balls made with mugwort（艾草）juice and sweet bean paste. The green color stands for spring, and the round shape symbolizes family unity.
Qingming Festival connects the past and present. It encourages people to respect ancestors, enjoy nature, and create new memories. Some even use online platforms to honor loved ones, blending tradition with modern life.
This holiday shows Chinese values of family, respect, and living in harmony with nature.
24. What is the main purpose of cleaning tombs during Qingming
A. To plant trees for the environment B. To show respect to ancestors
C. To write poems about nature
25. Why do some people use flowers instead of fire during Qingming
A. To save money B. To follow modern fashion C. To protect the environment
26. What does the underlined word "blending" mean in paragraph 5
A. Replacing B. Mixing C. Forgetting
27. Which value is NOT mentioned in the passage
A. Family bonds B. Respect for nature C. Love for technology
C
Maybe your dad said, “The harder you work for something, the more you’ll enjoy it.” Well, father really did know best. Because a study finds that the harder mice have to work for a treat(獎勵), the better it tastes.
Mice were trained to push levers(杠桿) to get either of two treats. Press one lever, out comes a drop of sugar water. Press the other and they get a drop of different tasting sugar water.
Then things got interesting. Scientists made it harder to get one of the treats. They slowly increased(增加) the difficulty - from one lever-press to five, then ten, then fifteen. In the end, this kind of sugar water cost 15 times more effort than the other.
The mice then returned to their home where both treats were freely available. And they showed a strong preference for the treat they’d work harder to get. They seemed to find the costlier(代價更大的) sugar water more delicious.
This makes evolutionary(進(jìn)化的) sense. An animal wouldn’t survive(生存) if a little hard work left a bitter taste in its mouth.
28. How did scientists make one treat harder to get in this study
A. By changing the taste of sugar water.
B. By offering only one kind of the treats.
C. By increasing the number of lever-presses.
29. What does the underlined word “preference” in paragraph 4 mean
A.偏好 B.刺激 C. 反對
30. What do we know about mice according to the passage？
A. Mice are more hard-working than other animals.
B. Mice like the food they worked harder to get better.
C. Mice are so smart that they can choose more delicious food.
31. In which part of a newspaper can we probably read the passage
A. Art and Culture B. Sports and Health C. Science and Nature
第二節(jié) （共4小題；每小題2分，滿分8分）
閱讀下面的短文，從短文后的選項中選出可以填入空白處的最佳選項，選項中有一項是多余選項。
Do you often question if others really respect(尊重) you No matter how hard you try, not everyone can respect you, and that’s okay. 32 .
Firstly, you don’t set boundaries(界限). You’re giving a wrong impression that your identity is at the will of other people if you don’t do it. 33 . Tell them the result if they don’t follow your rules. This way, your relationship can be healthy.
34 . Do you say you are going to arrive in a few minutes But you haven’t even left the house yet. Or have you told your teachers you’d finish your homework on time but failed to meet it. If you can’t keep your promises, you could be showing others you are not trustworthy(可信的) and they could disrespect you in return.
Thirdly, you just make everything about you and don’t care others’ idea. Do you leave other people room to speak when talking The other party might feel bored if they can’t give opinion or follow what you’re saying. If you feel that your partner is starting to lose interest, ask them their opinion and questions to bring them back in.
Finally, you say sorry too often. People usually say sorry when they feel uncomfortable and due to fear of disappointing the other person. Sorry makes others feel you really did something wrong, which may be a sigh of low self-esteem(低自尊). 35 .
Do you do any of the things above Are you planning to change In fact, everyone is special and there is no 100% way of pleasing everybody but as long as you practice your kindness and empathy(同理心) to yourself and others, you can naturally become someone people will like and respect.
A. Secondly, you break promises B. So it’s important to communicate with your friends C. Controlling can make others lose their respect for you D. Here are some reasons why others might not respect you E. If you want people to respect you, try to be careful with the language you choose
