8、 B How do you know if a watermelons perfectly ripe? Well, one theory is that if you knock hard on the outside, the sound you hear will help determine if its ready to eat. That theory led to a huge online debate in China about what kind of people tend to engage in the art of “watermelon knocking”. Th

9、e discussion, which thousands of people contributed to on the Chinese micro blogging site Sina Weibo, was kicked off by an unknown event thousands of miles away in Italy. It all began when a Chinese social media user posted the picture of a sign in an Italian supermarket asking customers not to knoc

10、k on the watermelons. The sign was stuck in a full box of watermelons which read: “Please stop knocking on the watermelons. They will not respond to it!” There was no indication that the supermarket was targeting this message at customers with Chinese heritage. The sign was in Italian, not Mandarin.

11、 But somehow it was taken as an attack on a practice which some Chinese observers regarded as being unique to their national customs. Many shared jokes aimed at the supermarket sign. Online users are keen to show they know better, especially on the subject of watermelons. A quick online search will

12、reveal that Chinese social media users are not alone in their thinking. Watermelon knocking and listening for a hollow sound is indeed a nearly universal concept. It even appears in films.

17、ustoms of Italy. C Ministers in the UK are urging schools to put on special workshops for students aged 1618 to ensure they feel comfortable when leaving home for university. The course, designed by the university accommodation provider Unite Students, will teach pupils how to manage their finances

18、and how to live independently.

19、ome?” Damian Hinds, the Education Secretary, says,“We are all very conscious that moving away from home and going to university is one of the most exciting things that happen in our life but it can also be very daunting.” He says that an important part of education is preparing children for adulthoo

20、d, so “it is right that we teach them what to expect for life after school”. Mr. Hinds recalls that when he got to university, he discovered he had “relied on my mum more than I realised I did”. “I wish I could have cooked better,” he adds. Earlier this year, ministers set up a new task force called

21、 the Education Transitions Network, which includes representatives from Universities UK, UCAS and the National Union of Students.

26、cks love water. You can often see them floating happily on the surface of lakes, creeks, rivers and ponds.Ducks swim effortlessly in all kinds of weather. Feathers protect them and other birds against cold. Ducks are great hunters. You can watch them diving down under the water for food, with their

27、bottoms and webbed feet sticking up in the air. Ducks often live near water. This is where they mate and lay their eggs. So, you could say that ducks really know water.

28、 are really good at something without even trying very hard. It is not a struggle for you at all. It is almost as if you were born to do it. And you really enjoy it. The next one also describes something easy with “duck” and “water”. When something is like water off a ducks back, it is no big deal.

The feathers are perfectly designed because the birds spend so much time in the water. In English, we use this sayin

This means the person is really unhappy about something, just as ducks would be if you ruffled or messed
