Sadly, the young man was not so clever, and his teacher and the other apprentices were always telling him he had no talent for making puppets, and that he would achieve nothing in making puppets. Even so, he was fond of it so much that he worked day after day to improve himself. Though he made every effort, they would always find something wrong with his puppets, and the poor puppets ended up being thrown out of the workshop. The young man wasnt going to give up, so he decided that from then on he would spend all his time making just one kind of puppet. Whenever he found a fault in his puppet he would throw it away and start again. Years passed, and with each new attempt his puppet became a little bit better. By that time, his puppet was much better than anything that the other apprentices could make, but he kept making improvements. Living like that, the man wasnt making any money, and many people laughed at how poor he was. By the time he was an old man, his puppet was truly wonderful. Finally, after so many years of work, he finished work on his puppet, and said, “I cant find anything wrong with it. This time it is perfect.” And for the first time in all those years, instead of throwing his puppet away, he put it up on the shelf, feeling truly satisfied and cheerful.

(B) As is known to all of us, Beijing Opera is one of the most important opera styles in China. It is an art on the stage which has about 200 years history.

Chatting online is now a national pastime in China, especially among the post-90s and post-00s generation. To some people, however, online chats can seem like a kind of polite conversation. Yet hidden rules and standards do exist, as long as you take the time to look for them. Get to the Point When sending a friend request, include your real name and any other identifying information. Remember, everybodys time is precious. If theres something you want, cut right to the chase. Never send an “Are you there?” without any follow-up messages. The quicker that you get to the point, the more likely the other person is to reply. Send the Right Things Please send texts, not voice messages. It might be easier for you to speak than type, but what about the person on the other end? They may be unable to listen to a 59-second message right now. Also, never send personal information by voice messageit is hard to note down. Emojis, GIFs and memes can save the day when you find yourself in an embarrassing conversation, or words fail you. Try to Understand You can always judge a persons mood by their text messages. If the person youre talking to says “Good night” or “Im going to take a shower.” thats probably not what theyre actually going to do, it is just an excuse to stop talking to you. If someone hesitates for longer than three seconds before saying “Yes”, they probably really mean “No”. If you receive these emojis from friends who are older, read them literally (照字面地) (as a smile, a wave or a laugh). For the post-90s and post-00s generation, however, they could be speechlessness.41. What can you do if theres something you want when youre chatting online according to the passage?A. Send an “Are you there?” without any follow-up messages.B. Send a friend request without any other identifying information.C. Send it directly without any other useless messages.D. Send your real name without any follow-up message.42. The underlined word “it” in Paragraph 3 refers to “_”.A. personal information B. voice message C. emoji D. GIF43. Who will send you a wave to say goodbye according to the passage?A.The post-80s generation. B. The post-90s generation.C. The post-2000s generation. D. The post-2010s generation. 44. What is the passage mainly about?A. How to get to the point when youre chatting online.B. Different good ways of sending the right thing.C. Hidden rules and standards in chatting online.D. How to understand others through the messages.45. What is the writers opinion about chatting online?A. Your text messages on the phone will show what youre feeling.B. Using too many emojis while chatting will annoy others.C. Voice messages make it easier for others to understand you.D. The ways you use to chat are the same as your parents. 第二节 阅读填空（共5小题；每小题1分，满分5分） 根据短文内容，将下面A-E五个句子分别填入文中空缺处，使得补全后的短文意思通顺，结构完整。 Face the StressHave you had a headache during a test?
