On Tuesday, competitors at the international contest “My Story of Chinese Hanzi 2024” in Chengdu, Sichuan Province, shared how learning Chinese has opened doors to understanding the real China and building friendship with people around the world. Ten competitors made speeches in Mandarin (普通话).
Ayrton Loureiro, a French winner, noted that learning Chinese isn’t so hard as others think. “Each character carries history and a story, making the learning enjoyable once you understand it,” he said. He visited China six years ago and never wanted to leave. Also, his family members were attracted (吸引) to visit China. For example, he took his mother to see pandas in Chengdu, making her pretty happy.
Kseniia Krivushina, a Russian student at Liaoning University, said she was preparing to study in China when the COVID-19 started. However, she didn’t give up and finally realized her dream. “At first, living in a new country was difficult, but China soon became one of the most beautiful experiences of my life,” she said. Now, she considers it as her second home since she was deeply touched by the warmth and trust from her teachers and classmates.
Nguyen Huyen Anh, from Vietnam, made friends during the contest and gained deeper understanding into Chinese culture. She plans to set up a Chinese language center in Vietnam to help more people learn the language.
“ The competitors built friendship through their shared love for hanzi, sowing (播种) seeds of friendship for a brighter future.” Zhang Chaoyi, a judge of the contest concluded. She also thought the event showed the world’s growing interest in Chinese culture, encouraging Chinese language educators and also making the world have a deeper understanding of China.

①Going to the doctor can seem boring as a child and even as a teen. But when do people really start taking their health seriously According to a survey of 2,000 adults in the UK, people don’t start seriously to pay attention to their health until the age of 38—and often only after some health scare.
②The study found that some people took better care of themselves only after they experienced new pains and reached a milestone (里程碑) birthday. Others were warned to take action after a loved one died or experienced a health problem. Famous people also play a role in making people take notice of their health. After King Charles was reported to be going through treatment for cancer, the UK National Health Service’s webpage about the condition received more visits than before.
③The study also found that 11 percent of adults said they still didn’t take their health very seriously. Nearly half didn’t take much notice at a younger age as they felt fine most of the time. However, 36 percent simply felt they were too young to need to worry about it. And 25 percent felt that nothing bad would happen to them.
④It can be very easy to disregard your health especially when you are young or you feel that everything is OK. No one wants to think that there might be something wrong, but often the early signs of a health problem are not clear. Sometimes it can take a bit of a wake-up call before you start taking your health more seriously, whether that is falling ill yourself or seeing a loved one or even a well-known person experience a health problem.
⑤ There’s no one-size-fits-all way when we talk about keeping healthy.
27.What can we learn from Paragraph 1
A. Going to the doctor is boring for everyone.
B. 2,000 children in the UK develop health problems.
C. Teenagers in the UK take their health very seriously.
D. People often start taking their health seriously after some health scare.
28.How is Paragraph 3 developed
A. By telling stories. B. By explaining causes.
C. By listing numbers. D. By comparing differences.
29.What does the underlined word “disregard” probably mean in Paragraph 4
A. 考虑 B. 忽视 C. 保持 D. 破坏
30.Which of the following will most probably be discussed next
A. Plans for the research in the future.
B. Medical problems of famous people.
C. Suggestions on how to improve health.
D. Reasons why people fail to keep healthy.

35.【答案】Dear Louise,
I’m so glad that you will visit China soon! Since entering Grade 9, I’ve changed a lot. I’m thinner and become more hard-working in my study. I become more independent, too. I can solve many problems by myself.
As for the coming winter vacation, I plan to finish my homework first. Then I’ll read some interesting books. I also want to learn how to make dumplings, which is a traditional Chinese food. If you come, we can make dumplings together and you can learn more about Chinese food culture. Besides, we can visit some local museums to know more about Chinese history. I’m sure you’ll have a great time here.
Looking forward to seeing you!
Yours,
Li Ping
