第二部分阅读理解（满分40分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。

21．（6分）Traditional Chinese medicine （TCM）is gaining global popularity．According to a government white paper，TCM has been introduced in 183 countries and regions around the world．Westerners' understanding of TCM，however，may be limited to acupuncture，cupping and massage（针灸，拔罐和按摩）．For instance，the purple，injury﹣like marks left on U．S．swimmer Michael Phelps，back from cupping for the purpose of relaxing his muscles and reducing pain became the center of attention during the Rio Olympics in 2016．

As a matter of fact，Chinese herbs play a more important role in getting rid of diseases and keeping the body in good condition in the TCM treatment system than physical treatment．It is therefore disheartening to know that while 103 World Health Organization member countries have given approval to the practice of acupuncture，not many recognize Chinese herbal medicine．TCM falls far behind Western medicine owing partly to the slow development of Chinese herbs．

Herbs are made into pills，powder and soup，and the kind of herbs used，their quality and quantity，and the processing of the ingredients （原材料）jointly determine the effectiveness of the prescription．Compared with Western medicine，which has standardized drug production processes and treatment methods，TCM lacks standardization，with the chemical composition and functions of its medicines being unclear and their effects being unstable．Fortunately，standardization has improved in recent decades，with an increasing number of factories producing patented TCM drugs．Another factor that has prevented the development of TCM prescription drugs is the lack of creativity．While Western medicine﹣making companies come up with new products every year，TCM drug producers tend to make medicines according to prescriptions handed down from the past．Chinese chemist Tu Youyou's winning the 2015Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for her research into malaria （疟疾）treatment may drive creativity to some extent in China's TCM industry．However，the current state of affairs cannot be changed within a short time．

1、Why does the author mention the example of Michael Phelps？

A．Because he was injured in his swimming．

B．Because cupping is a kind of important TCM treatment．

C．Because westerners know a little about TCM．

D．Because westerners attach great importance to TCM．

2、Why don't some member countries of WHO recognize Chinese herbal medicine？

A．Because Chinese herbs can get rid of diseases．

B．Because they only approve the practice of acupuncture．

C．Because Western medicine is more effective．

D．Because medicine made out of Chinese herbs develops slowly．

3、Compared with Western medicine，what is the weak point of TCM in Paragraph 4？

A．The methods of planting herbs．

B．The effectiveness of prescription．

C．Lacking in standardization．

D．Its stable functions．

4、The lack of creativity in TCM refers to the fact that．

A．medicine﹣making companies lack creativity

B．prescriptions are got from the past

C．Western companies are more experienced

D．medicine﹣making companies lack driving force

22．（8分）The Rise of Sneaker Culture is organized by the Bata Shoe Museum,whose aims are to explore the social history,technical innovations,fashion trends,and marketing campaigns that have shaped sneaker culture over the past two centuries.Y ou cannot overestimate the cultural importance of a pair of sneakers.At least that's the conclusion from a new exhibition at the Brooklyn Museum in the US.

23．（8分）China has completed its home-grown BeiDou Navigation (导航) Satellite System (BDS) with the successful launch of two more BDS-3 satellites, 19 in all, and has started providing services to countries participating in the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) since the end of 2018. The BDS, which will compete against the US’ Global Positioning System (GPS), will provide high-precision, reliable positioning, navigation and timing services anywhere in the world by the end of 2020.

The Belt and Road Initiative is an ambitious effort to improve regional cooperation and connectivity in a trans-continental range. The initiative aims to strengthen infrastructure (基础设施), trade, and investment links between China and some 65 other countries. It is also expected to increase Beijing’s influence in these countries.

“This is a key step for the BDS developing from a Chinese home system to a regional and then a global navigation system,” said Yang Changfeng, chief designer of the BeiDou system. China plans to launch another 11 BDS-3 satellites between the end of 2018 and 2020. China developed the BDS through a unique technological approach, contributing Chinese wisdom to the theory and construction of international satellite navigation systems.

They improved their work efficiency by reforming the management process. The number of satellite staff at the launch center has been reduced by nearly half, and the testing time before launch has been shortened by nearly a third. In the CAST production base in Beijing, several BDS

satellites are being manufactured at the same time. They try to improve intelligent manufacturing capability, and cut down production times. Construction of the BDS-3 system has accelerated.

Once the BDS is fully completed, it will be the fourth global satellite navigation system after the US GPS system, Russia’s GLONASS and the European Union’s Galileo. India too, is building its navigational system called the Indian Regional Navigation Satellite System (IRNSS), with an operational name of

25．（10分）A young man wandered through the desert for forty until he reached a beautiful castle at the top of a mountain. There lived the sage that he was looking for.

With considerable patience, the sage listened attentively to the reason for the boy’s visit, but told him that at that moment he did not have time to explain to him the secret of happiness.

He suggested that the young man take a walk around his palace and come back in two hours’ time.

“However, I want to ask you a favor,” he added, bandin g the boy a teaspoon, in which he poured two drops of oil. “While you walk, carry this spoon and don’t let the oil spill.”

The young man began to climb up and down the palace staircases, always keeping his eyes fixed on the spoon. At the end of two hours he returned to the presence of the wise man.

“So,” asked the sage, “did you see the Persian tapestries(挂毯)hanging in my dining room? Did you see the fantastic garden that the Master of Gardeners spent ten years in creating?”

Embarrassed, the young man admitted that he had seen nothing.

“So, go back and see the wonders of my world,” said the wise man. “You can’t trust a man if you don’t know his house.”

Now more at ease, the young man took the spoon and wandered again through the palace, this time paying attention to all the works of art that hung from the ceilings and walls. He saw the gardens, the mountains all around the palace, and the delicacy of the flowers. Returning to the sage, he reported in detail what he had seen.

“But where are the two drops of oil that I entrusted to you?” asked the Sage.

Looking down at the spoon, the young man realized that he had spilled the oil.
