Have you ever noticed that sometimes, after a cold winter, the weather starts to get warmer, but things in your home start to be wet This is hui nan tian, or lasting humid (湿热的) weather.
Hui nan tian is a special weather condition in southern China. It normally appears in spring when the temperature begins to rise and the humidity quickly increases. Before it arrives, there are usually a few cold days, with a temperature below 12℃. As the cold air goes away, warmer air quickly comes and the temperature rises, creating a lot of water vapor (蒸气). Small water drops can be seen on windows and walls. For example, if the temperature is below 12℃ from March 7th to 9th but suddenly rises on March 10th, hui nan tian will appear on March 10th.
During hui nan tian, the humid weather makes it easy for bacteria (细菌) to grow. Food goes bad easily and clothes stay wet. It can also make people feel tired and sick. Catching a cold is prevalent during this time, as the temperature changes quickly. Although the weather troubles people a lot, for nature, it can be helpful. Thanks to the humid weather, plants can grow better with enough water and warmer air.
To cut down on the trouble caused by the lasting humid weather, scientists suggest that people in the south should close their windows in the morning and evening. At the same time, they should use an air conditioner to take away water from the air. It’s also useful to put newspapers on the floor, on tables, and at the door to take in water and wet air.
26．Where are we most likely to meet hui nan tian
A．The east of China. B．The south of China.
C．The west of China. D．The north of China.
27．Which of the following is true about hui nan tian according to the passage

C．There are usually a few cold days before it.
D．It is a special weather condition in the north.

A． B．
C． D．
29．Which word has the same meaning as the underlined word “prevalent”
A．Strange. B．Common. C．Easy. D．Difficult.
30．What is the best title for the passage
A．The Humid Weather B．The Warm Air Rises
C．The Growth of Plants D．The Weather Changes
C

Have you noticed that there are more and more parks in cities these days From “pocket parks” between communities to forest parks in the outer cities, local governments have been making efforts to make China’s cities greener.
Huizhou, known as a tourist city, has always been famous for its clear water and green mountains. Up to 2024, Huizhou has at least 200 different kinds of parks. People can take a walk in nature and get closer to wildlife. In 2025, each county and district (县区) in Huizhou will build at least one mountain park or wilderness park.
The parks are not only great places to breathe the fresh air, but also places to make people’s lives colorful and acquire new knowledge at the same time. For example, the Huizhou Botanical Garden welcomes people to have a picnic or have an educational research trip there.
Besides meeting people’s needs, parks can also be good for the environment. Take Beijing’s Central Green Forest Park as an example. The park has been carbon-neutral (碳中和的) for 4 years. The park also fully reuses rainwater and generates green energy.
As cities in China become greener, the concept of “park cities” is becoming a reality. They meet people’s needs for a better living experience and are a people-centered idea that takes the form of an improved natural environment in all fields.

Dear Tom,
I’m glad to hear that you are interested in 20-Minute Park Effect. I’d like to go with you. I think spending time in nature can make us feel happier, because parks are peaceful and pretty.
If you’re up for it, let’s meet at the park near my house this weekend. We can do various kinds of activities there. First, how about riding bikes around the lake We can chat and enjoy the scenery at the same time. Besides, I’ve heard there’s a small garden with a variety of flowers, and I think it would be lovely to have a picnic there. What’s more, there’s a beautiful pond with ducks and fish. We might even feed them if you’d like.
I hope there will be more and more parks in the future, perhaps even a small forest within it, where we can truly connect with nature.
Looking forward to hanging out with you at the park!
Yours,
Li Ming
