22、For thousands of years, Chinese writers have travelled all over the country to take down notes about the geographical conditions of each city. Among them, well-known Chinese geographer and writer Li Daoyuan, in the Northern Wei Dynasty (386-534), composed his book, Commentary on the Water Classics, after studying the original literary version, Water Classics. He later expanded the river records to 1, 252 from the original 137.

The book is now being studied again by Professor Li Xiaojie and his team from Fudan University. They have been using drawing software and 3D modelling to recreate the waterway situations on a map based on the book description. So far, they have completed research on four rivers.

“Ancient people knew really well how to apply the power of nature to technical considerations,”Li said, giving the example of Qianjin’e, one of the most famous ancient water conservation projects in Luoyang, Henan. In order to lead the river into the city for irrigation (灌溉) in ancient Luoyang, the officials built a canal branch by separating a northwest-southeast river. However, the canal water wasn't enough to support the citizens in dry seasons. To solve that, on the northern side of the canal branch, the officials built a reservoir (水库) and a channel to lead the water to the canal branch, where the waterways would converge and flow together to the city.

In Commentary on the Water Classics, a total of 2, 800 cities are recorded with details. Still, the process of recreation takes much effort. After doing a lot of text analysis and fieldwork, the team has gradually created the model with 3D modelling software based on repeated deductions (推论).

For Professor Li, the book is not only a record of the natural landscape over 1, 000 years ago, but also a detailed description of humanity and culture and a treasure for today’s reference.

【1】What can we learn about the book Commentary on the Water Classics?

A．It has been out of date.

B．It explains 3D modelling.

D．It is based on previous studies.

A．Join.

B．Pass.

C．Cross.

D．Begin.

【3】What does paragraph 4 mainly tell us about model recreation?

A．Its major problems.

B．Its detailed analysis.

C．Its complex process.

D．Its successful application.

【4】Which of the following can be the best title for the text?

A．3D Technology Fuels Modern Research

B．Ancient Classics Inspire Modern Research

Themed camping

24、The creativity TikTok stimulates allows for a broad range of content that encourages users to participate in trends that integrate their passions and hobbies. Specifically, content related to literature on TikTok has generated its own domain. Commonly referred to as “BookTok,” this side of the platform focuses on all things about books: book recommendations, tips for pleasing bookshelves and edits related to literature-based fandoms (粉丝圈).

With heightened demand for new media to comfort themselves during the pandemic period of severe challenges, many young adults have regarded literature as a form of escape. Restarting former literary passions, BookTok users have turned their attention to the app to praise the novels that have helped serve as a brief getaway to worlds within bound pages.

Through a revival of novels that shaped the childhoods of many who are now young adults, even younger generations on the app have been exposed to foundational novels in young adult literature. Along with this emphasis on nostalgic (怀旧的) fandoms, BookTok takes advantage of TikTok trends in order to attract those who may not be familiar with literature to read. The popularity of BookTok and the novels that are recommended to young adults on the app have had a direct effect on bookstores and book sales, with both independent bookstores and chains such as Barnes & Noble taking notice of the broader range of readers that are influenced by TikTok and updating their stock to appeal to users.

As of March 2021, BookTok has over 6 billion views and will only continue to grow larger. Though the popularity of BookTok brought many significant questions regarding the future of the book industry and the books that receive mass attention on social media, the importance of the BookTok phenomenon perhaps lies mainly with the readers who claim their love for books and the creative channels through which they express this admiration. TikTok has demonstrated, at least through BookTok, that brilliant literature is written for a broad audience — the perfect book for you is waiting somewhere on a shelf and, through BookTok, you will surely discover it.

【1】What can users do on BookTok?

A．Share favorable books.

B．Buy pretty bookshelves.

C．Make profits from editing.

D．Create their own platforms.

【2】What influence does BookTok have?

A．TikTok has lost quantities of users.

B．The elderly take up children’s books.

C．The bookstores change their books accordingly.

D．Youths start treasuring their memories of childhood.

【3】What does the last paragraph mainly tell us about BookTok?

A．Its bright future.

B．Its big challenges.

C．Its amazing function.

D．Its minor disadvantages.

【4】What is the best title for the text?

A．Why BookTok had an effect on bookstores

B．How BookTok expanded its range of audience

C．Why BookTok gained popularity among elderly

D．How BookTok repopularized young adult fiction

25、Most essays are made up of a beginning, a middle and an end．The beginning arouses the reader’s interest to   his attention to the subject of the essay or   the necessary background information.
