What’s the Big Deal?

Do Something Big:
★ Talk to your teacher about becoming a leader in preventing bullying at your school.

Under new rules posted by the Civil Aviation (航空) administration of China on Friday, pilots will have to pass a “level four” test of Mandarin Chinese, China’s official language. Those who speak with an accent that “often impedes” comprehension will not pass. These rules take effect in January 2016.
China’s 56 ethnic groups speak more than 80 languages and dialects. Even native Mandarin speakers can have trouble communicating with each other depending on the strength of their accents, which can be mutually difficult to understand.
One flight trainer illustrated the scope for linguistic confusion, especially when common English aviation terms are used. Asked if there is a problem on board, a Chinese pilot might answer in the negative with the words mei you, or “there isn’t.” But someone speaking with a heavy Sichuan accent would pronounce mei you as “May day” ---- unconsciously parroting the universally recognized distress call (遇难信号).
Like their international counterparts (对应物), Chinese aviators have developed codes to avoid confusion resulting from homonyms (同音异义字) or near-homonyms. They use the terms yao for one and guai for seven, which are otherwise pronounced yi and qi respectively and easily confused.
The new rule could affect all pilots, who must renew their license every six years, and adds to a growing list of burdens for the profession.
25. Which of the following is true according to the passage?
A. Sichuan dialect has the contrary meaning to Mandarin.
B. Native Mandarin speakers can understand each other well.
C o D. “May day” is a distress call in our everyday life.
26. What is the purpose of the Chinese aviators using the terms yao for one and guai for seven?
A. To avoid misunderstanding.
B. To communicate with their international counterparts.
C. To pass the test.
D.To avoid their accents.
27. What is the best title for the passage?
A. Chinese Pilots Told to Get Rid of Regional Accents.
B. Chinese Pilots.
C. Rich Chinese Languages.
D. Hard to Be a Chinese Pilot.
C
Try Your Hardest
“Don’t be afraid to give your best to what seemingly are small jobs. Every time you conquer one it makes you much stronger. If you do little jobs well, the big ones will tend to take care of themselves,” said Dale Carnegie.
Sometimes, doing your best work or trying your hardest at something is difficult. It may have something to do with trying to do something new for the first time, like a new sport or activity at school. It may have something to do with doing homework for a subject that is not your favorite or is not your best.
As Hunter S. Thompson once said, “Anything worth doing is worth doing right.” And as Albert Einstein added, “We have to do the best we can. This is our sacred human responsibility.”
Developing the habit of trying your hardest and doing your best is something that will help you succeed throughout your life. If you have looked at some quotes related to trying your hardest, you will see that many of them come from people who have made a big difference in the world. This is not a coincidence. It was not only their cleverness that helped them stand out and change the world, but their ability to try their hardest and do their best in whatever they were doing. If you can develop this same habit—to do your best in any situation, it will be a great benefit to your family, career, school and community.
As Bob Cousy put it, “Do your best when no one is looking. If you do that, then you can be successful at anything you put your mind to.” The choice is yours.
28. Why does the author use the quote of Dale Carnegie in Paragraph 1 ?
A. To describe a scene. B. To introduce a topic.
C. To draw a conclusion. D. To support an argument.
29. According to the passage, in which case is it difficult to try your hardest ?
A. When you are doing something that you are familiar with.
B. When you are doing something that you are good at.
C. When you are doing something that you feel bored with.
D. When you are doing something that you like very much.
30. Why does the author suggest we develop the habit of trying our hardest ?
A. To let us make a big difference in the world.
B. To help us achieve success all through our life.
C. To make us more skillful in our work.
D. To make it possible for us to benefit the whole world.
31. What is the main purpose of the passage ?
A. To inform. B. To advertise. C. To introduce. D. To persuade.
D
Do you ever wonder why trees begin to bud (发芽) earlier in some cities? Scientists finally found the answer but it’s not very pleasant. New science suggests a relationship between light pollution and the timing when trees produce buds, which signals the arrival of the spring season.
Light pollution is defined by the Lighting Research Center as the unwanted consequence of outdoor lighting such as street lights. Excessive (过多的) man-made light at night results in disturbed natural cycles, and also prevents the observation of stars and planets at night. But its effect on the environment goes beyond that.
By studying some trees, researchers found out that trees that are more exposed to artificial lighting at night bud up to 7.5 days earlier than those at the natural nighttime setting. And they found out that light had a more significant effect than temperature when the buds came out. The early budding may cause problems for insects, which feed on leaves, and the birds which then feed on them in turn. Professor Richard Ffrench-Constant, who helped lead the research, explained that more than the budding of trees, the study implies the danger to the balance of the ecosystem. “At the moment, caterpillars (毛毛虫) are timed to hatch to make the most of the opportunities to feed on freshly budded leaves, and birds hatch in time to feed on the young caterpillar,” he said.
Migratory (迁徙的) birds are also negatively affected by light pollution. The glare might confuse them and make them lose their flying sense. The phenomenon might explain why some birds accidentally knock into buildings.
Such results stress the need to pursue studies that aim to measure the effect of light pollution. If the issue were left to continue, it is estimated that by 2100, spring would begin almost a full month earlier than it does today.
32. What will happen if there is too much man-made light?
A. People’s eyesight will be damaged.
B. The ecosystem will likely lose its balance.
C. No stars or planets may be observed at night.
D. Animals’ living habits may change suddenly.
33. How does the early budding affect insects or plants?
A. It will cause the rising number of insects.
B. It could lead to trees growing fewer leaves.
C. It may result in some insects going hungry.
D. It might push insects to hatch more slowly.
34. What does the author want to tell us in the last paragraph?
A. The effect of light pollution is destructive.
B. The spring of 2100 will become much longer.
C. Light pollution should be taken seriously.
D. A further study on light pollution is scheduled.
35. What is the suitable title for the passage?
A. Why spring comes earlier in some cities.
B. Why light pollution needs to be studied.
C. How trees’ early budding takes place.
D. How much light is “too much”
