Although it’ll take weeks to harvest all of their cabbage, farmers in a town in Pingdu,
Shandong province, have started preparing to sell the vegetables to overseas markets.
Li Wenbin, who runs a vegetable trading business in the town of Renzhao, said his fresh
vegetable sales to overseas markets mainly in Japan, South Korea and Malaysia doubled to 20,000
metric tons last year due to high demand for kimchi, a dietary staple in South Korea.
South Korea suffered from an abnormally long rainy season and three typhoons last year that
damaged large amounts of Chinese cabbage, the major ingredient(原料) for kimchi, creating high
demand for the vegetable.
“Based on the current performance of vegetable exports in parts of southern China, such as in
Fujian province, we predict this year’s business won’t be sad,” said Li, adding that he is confident
because vegetables from Renzhao are competitive in terms of quality and price.
Around 120 kilometers west of Pingdu, vegetable traders in Shouguang, Weifang, one of the
country’s major vegetable production bases, have started exporting this year’s carrots. Pei Shengji,
manager of Zhonglong Food, headquartered in Shouguang, said the harvesting of the company’s
65-hectare carrot growing base in Fujian is in full swing. All of the carrots will be processed and
shipped to overseas markets.
What’s more, Shandong province is developing seeds to meet diverse needs for quality crops,
which helps to support the agricultural sector. “The seed developed domestically brings rich
harvests. The Chinese cabbage tastes good and is good for being preserved,” he said. Besides, it’s
much cheaper than foreign seeds.
Unlike Li, who can choose quality Chinese cabbage seeds developed in China, Pei has to
spend more buying foreign seeds because there are no domestically developed carrot seeds
available. According to Weifang’s five-year plan, the seeds of medium-and high-end vegetables
such as bell peppers, broccoli and carrots will be researched and developed.
24. Why did the fresh vegetable sales to markets in South Korea double last year?
A. Chinese cabbage tastes better than others.
B. Kimchi is a favourite food in South Korea.
C. China has a vegetable trade with South Korea.
D. Vegetables there experienced climatic disasters.
25. What is Li Wenbin’s attitude to Chinese vegetable trading business?
A. Indifferent. B. Doubtful. C. Optimistic. D. Pessimistic.
26. What does the underlined part “in full swing” in Paragraph 6 mean?
A. In ruins. B. Under way. C. In the dark. D. On the scene.
27. What can be inferred from the last two paragraphs?
A. Pei bought foreign carrot seeds at a lower price.
B. Overseas markets are fond of Chinese vegetables.
C. More seeds in high quality will appear in the future.
D. All the seeds developed in Shandong are not productive.
C
The Tibet autonomous region has placed nearly half its land area under the strictest ecological
supervision ( 监 督 ).It was announced at an annual meeting of the regional People's Congress,
which kicked off on Wednesday.
The ecological protection area, which covers more than 539,000 square kilometers, makes up
45 percent of the region's area, and 22 ecological reserves have been built and are operational.
According to the government work report, the rate of days with good air quality in Tibet's cities
has reached 99.4 percent, and all the region's drinking water sources have met applicable
standards.
The report also said that the number of Tibetan antelope (羚)in the region has risen to more
than 200,000, wildlife species to 1,072 and black-necked cranes to more than 8,000. Five rare new
species have been discovered in recent years. The region has spent 12.2 billion yuan ($1.9 billion)
on ecological protection projects in recent years. Five cities and three counties have been named
as national-level ecologically civilized model cities and counties, and more rural residents have
benefited financially by undertaking part-time ecological protection work.
More advanced monitoring facilities have been in place in the reserve, with more ecological
protection inspectors employed to undertake protection work. The professional ecological
inspectors are provided with basic tools such as motorcycles, telescopes and paging receivers, and
they provide feedback regularly. Professional inspectors also receive one week of training every
year from professors at Tibet University.
Kunsang Darje, a railway maintenance worker in Nagchu, said that apart from maintaining
the railway and highway, he also collects trash along the section with his colleagues. “The place I
work is in a no-man's land, and I think it's very important to protect the animals there without

Our suits have four layers: thermal （ 保 暖 的 ） underwear on the inside, followed by an
electrically heated bodysuit, a thick wool coat, and a half-inch-thick layer of rubber outerwear.
There’re two layers of hoods, waterproof gloves and 35 pounds of weights. There are two batteries
for the heated bodysuit, a backup gas container, and finally, my photography equipment. We look
like astronauts minus the helmets.
When we finally dive into the freezing water, we’re wearing 200 pounds each. The cold
quickly numbs（使麻木）the few square inches of exposed skin on our cheeks, and as the dive
goes on, it spreads into our suits and gloves, biting even harder. It’s almost unbearable. Toward the
