No model has ever received more attention in China than the Xiaomi SU7, which was launched(发行)on Thursday night in Beijing.
It may sound unbelievable but the launch event attracted more than 40 million views on Xiaomi Auto's Weibo alone. Even guessing its price level had been a popular topic on China's social media platforms for weeks.
Xiaomi, one of the world's leading smartphone companies, began accepting orders in China through an app on Thursday night, after founder Lei Jun finished a more than two-hour presentation(发布会) on the SU7 car by stating the much -awaited price range(区间): 215,900 yuan to 299,900 yuan.

Lei said Xiaomi would lose money on the basic model at 215,900 yuan, a price that is lower than the Tesla(特斯拉) Model 3 in China. In his opinion, the SU7 car did better than the Tesla in most areas, but the best type of the SU7 is not as good as the Porsche(保时捷) Taycan.

So far, China has successfully sent a large number of satellites(卫星) and spaceships into space. Space scientists have been greatly inspired(赋予灵感)by the old stories and ancient famous people when giving them names.
Since thousands of years ago, Chinese people have dreamed of going to the moon. Chang'e Flies to the Moon is one of the most popular stories. As you can see, China's first man-made satellite to circle around the moon was named Chang'e I. More interestingly, the moon rover(巡视器)was named after the Jade Rabbit, who is the partner of Chang'e in the story. These old stories carry people’s best wishes and dreams.
With the development of science and technology, our scientists have made them come true.
Kuafu Runs After the Sun is another story to show how much ancient Chinese people wanted to know about the unknown world. Now,Kuafu is going with the scientists to “visit” the sun, because we have a space project called Kuafu Mission.
Besides the ancient stories, space scientists also get ideas from ancient famous people. For example, Mozi, an ancient scientist, discovered that light travels in a straight line over 2,000 years ago. His discovery made space study take a big step at that time. So, China's first quantum(量子) science satellite was named Mozi, making China the first country in the world to achieve quantum communication between satellites and the ground.
From such simple things as giving names to the satellites, we can see how great our traditional culture is and what influence it has on our modern science and technology(科技).
68. In China, space scientists get ideas from________ when naming satellites.
① old stories ② traditional projects ③ ancient famous people ④ popular inventions
A.①② B.① ③ C.② ④ D.③ ④
69. What do we know about Chang’e I according to the passage
A. It moves around the moon. B. It protects the Jade Rabbit.
C. It “ visits” the sun with the scientists. D. It is the world's first man-made satellite.
70. How does the writer support his opinion in Paragraph 4
A. By listing numbers. B. By comparing facts.
C. By giving an example. D. By reporting a result.
71. Which is the right structure of the passage
A. B. C. D.
72. What's the writer's purpose for writing the passage
A. To spread the traditional Chinese culture.
B. To explain how our scientists develop the space industry.
C. To introduce the achievements in our science and technology.

Tanghulu is a Chinese snack, which has been popular on TikTok recently, with many people sharing videos of making it at home. We'll talk about something about tanghulu.
73
Tanghulu is traditionally made of dried hawthorn berries(山楂),which look like small red apples. Street businessmen coat the hawthorn berries with sugar syrup(糖浆). 74 Served on a stick, it becomes a popular hit in Chinese street markets. Couples on a date, children or teenagers looking for a treat will enjoy this fruit snack. 75 And other fruits like grapes, blueberries, apples, and even pineapples can be used to make tanghulu as well.
Is tanghulu healthy
Although tanghulu is made of fruits, it is certainly not the healthiest snack. For example, if you eat 20 candied fruits, you will get about 400 calories, equivalent(等同的) to a cheeseburger. While the fruits can provide Vitamin C, the sugar coating can lead to tooth decay(蛀牙) if you eat it too often.
76
Historical records show that tanghulu is from Northern China. As a traditional Chinese snack, tanghulu has a long history dating back to the Song Dynasty. 77 One of them says that a woman was too ill to eat anything until a doctor suggested coating dried fruit with sugar. Whatever the truth , tanghulu becomes very popular. You can see it in theaters , streets , and tea houses.
A. What is tanghulu made of B. Many stories talk about how it started. C. What is the reason for eating tanghulu D. Its popularity has spread across different countries. E.
