    At the age of 50, Nina Schoen expects to have a long lifeahead of her, but has thought a lot about death—and why people are so reluctant to talk about it: “It’s going to happen to all of us,” she says, “but it should be a more positive experience than the fear we put into it.”
    When she first heard about a new end-of-life process that turns the body into compost (堆肥, “I was really moved by the idea,” says Schoen, who became one of the first to reserve a spot with a Seattle-based company called Recompose, the county’s first funeral home to offer human composting.
    Last year Recompose began transforming bodies to soil, more formally known as natural organic reduction. Before that, end-of-life options in the U.S. were limited to burial or cremation (火化, both of which come with environmental costs—U.S. cremations alone dump 1.7 billion pounds of carbon dioxide into theatmosphere every year.
    Katrina Spade pioneering the composting movement has spent a decade developing the process in hopes of offering people a greener option for death care. “I wondered, ‘What if we had a choice that helps the planet rather than harms it?’” Spade tells PEOPLE. “To know that the last gesture you’ll make will be gentle and beneficial and it just feels like the right thing to do.”
    After she had her own two sons, she began to wonder what she might do with her body after death. A friend who knew her interest in the topic reminded her that farmers sometimes compost the body of cows, and thatsparkedan idea for her theory: “If you can compost a cow, you can probably compost a human,” she thought, and she set about designing a facility to do just that.
    “This is about giving people another choice,” Spade says. “At first, people react with shock—‘You really can do that?’ But so many people today are looking at their impact on the Earth. This is a popular thing because when you die, you can give back to the planet.”
    4. How do people react when it comes to death according to paragraph 1? A. They are unwilling to comment. B. They can face it without fear.

    C. They feel it a positive experience. D. They would like to compost their bodies.
    5. What can we know about the company Recompose? A. Its CEO is Katrina Spade. B. It is located in Seattle.
    C. It was founded to resist cremation. D. It has spent 10 years composting bodies.
    6. What does the underlined word “sparked” probably mean? A. Changed. B. Compromised. C. Quitted. D. Inspired.
    7. What message does the author seem to convey in the text? A. A little things in our life can bring in big outcomes. B. We human beings should do all we can to help the earth. C. Composting is so popular that we should reserve a spot soon. D. We should reject burial because of its harm to environment.
    C
    In the world of Chinese archaeology(考古学, a sign of a dig's importance is the sight of Zhou Mingsheng at work. A field technician who has worked at archaeological sites all aroundChina. Master Zhou iscredited with the gentlest touch in his profession. Born into a farming family, he is a “national-level craftsman” with a talent for using simple tools to get relics(遗物 that wouldcrumblein other hands, says his current boss, Wang Xu, director of an archaeological site at Shuanghuaishu, a Neolithic(新石器时代的 settlement near the Yellow River in the central province of Henan.
    It is not beauty that attracts visitors to Shuanghuaishu. At 5,300 years old, the settlement is the work of a culture too simple to have left behind many buried treasures. The single most precious find, to date, is a finger-length sculpture of a silkworm. Nor is the setting lovely: an area surrounded by deafening insects, between a highway and two power stations. Rather, the site's importance is historical. For since the birth of Chinese archaeology in the 1920s, it has been inseparable from claims thatChinahas the oldest unbroken civilisation on Earth.
    Leading archaeologists say that the site has the right combination of location, age and distinctive cultural elements to be the capital of an early Chinese kingdom. That would make it a bridge betweenChina's written
    history and the era of the Yellow Emperor, who is said to rule over these central plains almost 5,000 years ago, though many foreign scholars doubt his existence. Chinese media call the site proof ofChina's 5,000 years of history.
    Foreigners complain about a lack of written records, Mr. Wang notes. Perhaps they are missing symbols that will one day be understood, for instance in patterned pottery. Outsiders “can't keep using Western standards to apply to Chinese ruins,” he argues.
    8. What does the underlined word “crumble” in Paragraph 1 mean?
    A. Break. B. Start. C. Wait. D. Shine. 9. Why does Shuanghuaishu attract visitors?
    A. It has appealing scenery. B. It has various precious treasures. C. It is of great historical significance. D. It is easily accessible. 10. What is Mr. Wang's attitude towards foreigners’ view?
    A. Unconcern. B. Disapproving. C. Supportive. D. Not mentioned. 11. What does the passage mainly talk about?
    A. Chinese history amazes the world. B. Chinese archaeology catches on. C. China follows its tradition. D.Chinadigs its past.
    D
    Each year, the women of Olney and Liberal compete in an unusual footrace. Dressed in aprons (围裙 and headscarves, they wait at both towns’starting lines. Each woman holds a frying pan with one pancake inside. At the signal, the women flip (轻抛 pancakes and they’re off!
    This “pancake racing” tradition is said to have started on Shrove Tuesday, 1445, in Olney. Shrove Tuesday is the day beforethe Christian season of Lent (大斋戒 begins. During Lent, many people decide to give up sugary or fatty foods.
    Legend says that in 1445, an Olney woman was making pancakes to use up some of her sugar and cooking fats before Lent. She lost track of time and suddenly heard the church bells ring, signaling the beginning of the Shrove Tuesday service. Realizing that she was going to be late for church, she raced out the door still wearing her apron and headscarf and holding her frying pan with a pancake in it. In the following years, the woman’s neighbors imitated her dash to church, and pancake racing was born.
    The rules are simple. Racers must wear the traditional headscarf and apron. They must flip their pancakes twice - once before starting and once after crossing the finish line. After the race, there are Shrove Tuesday church

    services. Then Liberal and Olney connect through a video call to compare race times and declare a winner.
    In both towns, the races have grown into larger festivals. Olney’s festival is an all-day event starting with a big pancake breakfast. Liberal’s festival lasts four days and includes a parade, a talent show, and contests that feature eating and flipping pancakes. Although the women’s race is still the main event, both towns now hold additional races for boys and girls of all ages. 12. How did pancake racing start? A. A woman in Olney created it. B. Women made pancakes before Lent. C. A woman dashed to church with a pancake. D. People followed the suit of an interesting incident. 13. What should racers obey during the race? A. They can wear fashionable headscarves and aprons. B. They must flip their pancakes once in the race.
    C. They must flip their pancakes at the beginning of the race. D. They can flip their pancakes in the middle of the race. 14. What can we learn about the race from the last paragraph? A. People can show their talent in Olney festival. B. People can enjoy a one-day holiday in Liberal. C. The race is not only intended for women now. D. People can have a big pancake breakfast in both towns. 15. What is the text mainly about? A. The origin of pancake racing. B. The history of pancake racing. C. The development of pancake racing. D. The introduction to pancake racing.
