When we play building blocks, we often think of “Lego”. Do you know any other famous game around the world As a country strong in math, China has many folk games filled with math wisdom (智慧). You may play many of them. Let’s take a look at some interesting toys.
Luban Lock
Luban Look first came out about 2000 years ago. It is said that Lu Ban, a Chinese carpenter, wondered how smart his son was. So he used six wooden pieces to make a lock-like toy for his son. The lock has a lot to do with solid geometry (立体几何). It’s hard to put the toy into six pieces. However, it is usually easier to unlock a Luban Lock than putting the pieces back together. Now, there are Luban Locks made up of nine or more pieces.
Huarong Pass
Huarong Pass is a traditional Chinese block-moving puzzle. Every block has a name like Cao Cao, Zhang Fei and Zhao Yun from the book Romance of the Three Kingdoms. To succeed in the game, players have to move the blocks to get “Cao Cao” out. This is a test of one’s math knowledge, for example, of geometric area (几何面积). According to the Chinese Puzzle website, it takes at least 81 steps to set “Cao Cao” free.
Tangram
First popular in the Ming and Qing dynasties, the tangram is a puzzle made up of seven pieces of different shapes, including triangles, squares and parallelograms. For each puzzle, players need to use all the pieces to make a shape. To do it, they have to know about geometry (几何学). In the 18th century, the tangram was brought to the West and soon became popular there.
Toys are an important part of children’s lives. Chinese traditional toys have become more and more popular. As Chinese, do you plan to spend more time playing them
Toys Interesting facts Comparisons
* Lu Ban, who created Luban Lock, wondered how smart his son was. * Unlocking a Luban Lock ___51___ than putting the pieces back together. * What do they ___52___ All of them are about knowledge of math. * How are they different ___53___ appeared earlier than the other two.
* The blocks of Huarong Pass got their names after ___54___ in Romance of the Three Kingdoms. * Players win the game by moving the blocks to set “Cao Cao” free.
* Players can use the pieces in different shapes to make whatever they like. * It is popular at home and abroad.

B. 任务型阅读（共5小题; 每小题2分, 计10分）
根据短文内容，按要求回答问题。
How do we know about things that happened 3,000 years ago when there were no videos or photos You may find answers from the oracle bone script. It is the oldest kind of Chinese writing. The characters on the oracle bones can tell us what life was like in the past. Although some characters are similar to those we use today, it’s still difficult to understand.
Right now, in Anyang, Henan, a group of scientists are using AI to study this old writing kind in a better way. Li Bang, 33, is an AI scientist at Anyang Normal University. He and his team are building a special “library” on the Internet. They put pictures and books about oracle bones into this “library”. They write programs (程序) to help AI learn to look at the shapes of characters and find information about them in the “library”.
We usually found broken oracle bone pieces. To study them, we need to put them together first. There are about 160,000 pieces in the world but we only put together 7,000 sets. But AI makes this problem simpler. It can quickly find matching pieces with the help of the “library”. The scientists also write a special program so that AI can learn to look at the shapes of characters and find information about them in the “library”. When they want to study an oracle bone character, they show it to the computer. AI can find similar characters and books about it for a few seconds. In the past, this took people a few hours or even a few days.
“AI is a great helper for people who study oracle bones, but it can’t take our place,” Li said. AI remembers things very well, but it isn’t good at thinking. So far, it can help us look for information about the characters, but it can hardly tell us the meaning of them.
56. How can we learn what life was like in the past according to the passage (no more than six words)
____________________________
57. Why is the “library” special (no more than seven words)
Because it’s a library ____________________________.
58. What does the underlined word “it” refer to (no more than four words)
It refers to ____________________________.
59. What can we learn from paragraph 3 (no more than four words)
With the help of AI, scientists can ______________ when studying the oracle bones and the characters.
60. Does the writer agree with Mr. Li Why or why not

My Best Friend
I’d like to introduce my best friend Wang Lin. In his free time, he often reads books and plays basketball. He does these activities twice a week. His favorite TV show is “The Voice of China” because he loves music. We have both similarities and differences. Firstly, we are all hard-working. Secondly, we are good at English but he is better at English than me. Thirdly, I’m more active while he is a little serious. The reasons why we are close friends are that we trust each other and always support each other.
