The author, Christine Cayol, who has lived in China for more than 20 years, shares her observations in her writing on Chinese wisdom towards "time". In the western world, the concept of time is often measurable, which can date from the Industrial Revolution. This view of time always reminds people of progress, improvement and efficiency. Unlike the western "race mode", the Chinese view of time is more like a "flowing water mode". In Cayol's eyes, Chinese people can become friends with time. "For the Chinese, time is neither a flying arrow at the target nor an hourglass measuring quicksand, but running water," she said. "Water can devour us, but it carries us and holds us as well; it seems weak, but is strong actually, and nothing can stop it from flowing into the sea." Cayol used to be uncomfortable with the way Chinese dealt with time when she first came to China: They never make appointments, and always change the time for a meeting. However, as she became more familiar with Chinese culture, Chinese wisdom has been gradually understood by her. Life in China led Cayol to experience a different view of time, which invites people to listen to their heart, to think and to love. Time in China seems to be internal, beneficial and cherished. It is life itself: It can be solid and liquid, fast and slow, hard and soft at the same time. Now, Cayol likes spending five hours with friends making dumplings or noodles. She believes it's a way to get along with each other, and no one will measure the time it takes. "I'm not introducing a method; I just want to reveal a new view of time, which is completely different from that in the West. Adopting it will be just like using a foreign language - it gives us greater freedom in the modern world," Cayol said. She hopes that Pourquoi les Chinois ont-ils le temps can be a cure for Westerners' worried hearts. 21. The western view of time can have the following features EXCEPT______________. A. the mode of raceB. the flowing water mode C. the focus on efficiencyD. the focus on progress 22. The underlined word "devour" in Paragraph 3 probably means______________. A. helpB. shelterC. trackD. destroy 23. According to the passage, which of the following statements is true? A. The Chinese tend to feel worried about time. B. Cayol studied people's different attitudes towards time in China. C. On arriving in China, Cayol admired the way Chinese dealt with time. D. How the Chinese treat time is closely related to the Chinese culture and wisdom. 24. What type of writing is the passage? A. A travel journal.B. An introduction to a book. C. A summary of a book.D. An advertisement for a book. B Too many deaths and injuries occur while mobile phones are being held. Tougher new laws will come into force in a further severe action on using a mobile phone behind the wheel from next year. It is already illegal to text or make a phone call, other than in an emergency, using a hand-held device while driving. From 2022, laws will go further to ban drivers from using their phones to take photos or videos, or play games. This will mean anyone caught using their hand-held device while driving will face a fixed penalty notice and six points on their license. Drivers will still be able to continue using a device "hands-free" while driving, if it's secured in acradle (支架). The government will also revise The Highway Code to explain the new measures. It will also be more precise about some facts, making it clear that hand-held mobile phone use at traffic lights or in motorway jams is illegal except in very limited circumstances. There will be an exemption (豁免) to the new law for drivers making a contactless payment using their mobile phone. This will cover, for example, places like a drive-through restaurant or a road toll, and will only apply when payment is being made with a card reader. Anyway, it will not allow drivers to make general online payments while driving. Mary Williams, chief executive of Brake - the road safety charity, said, "If drivers take their attention away from driving, this can be deadly. Using a hand- held phone at the wheel is never worth the risk. This important road safety decision by government, along with Road Safety Week, is very welcomed. The theme for Road Safety Week is road safety heroes - we can all be road safety heroes by giving driving our full attention." 25. The purpose of the passage is mainly to______________. A. present some new findings about using a mobile phone behind the wheel B. describe the relationship between road safety and driving with full attention C. report new problems caused by drivers who use mobile phones while driving D. introduce new laws that will go further to ban drivers from using mobile phones 26. Which of the following statements is true according to the new law? A. Hand-held mobile phone use at traffic lights is always illegal. B. Those using their hand-held devices while driving will be fined. C. Younger drivers are more likely to use hand-held devices at the wheel. D. Using phones to
