云南省楚雄彝族自治州楚雄市2024年中考二模英语试题
Xing Bin is a 47-year-old teacher in Linyi University in Shandong province. He has worked there for 19 years. At the end of 2022, he experienced the work of a delivery rider (外卖骑手). More than half a year later, he shared his understanding and thoughts online, which quickly caused heated discussions.
Xing Bin was so interested in the life and work of a delivery rider that he decided to be one from December 22nd to January 20th. During the month, Xing worked more than 10 hours and took 30,000 steps a day. He lost 6 kilograms and made a total of 7,000 yuan. On average, he made 10 yuan each hour, and 20 yuan at most.
"During that month, I tasted the bitterness (苦难) and the happiness of this job with my heart," Xing said. "I delivered over 2,000 orders, and three deliveries impressed (使印象深刻) me a lot. One took place late at night when I delivered food to a village where there were no streetlights. The couple who ordered the food were afraid that I would get lost in the middle of the night. So they used a flashlight to walk me out of the small village to the main road."
Xing now understands the difficulties of delivery workers better and realizes how hard they work to make a living. "I also hope that more people can understand delivery workers and show more respect towards them," he said. "I will continue to try different jobs every year in the future."
a. Xing Bin shared his experience online.
b. A couple in a village gave Xing Bin some help.
c. Xing Bin chose the job as a teacher.
d. Xing Bin decided to work as a delivery rider.

I think it's a 5-star sofa. The color is beautiful and it looks great in my living room. It is easy for me to put it up(组装). What's more, the price is nice too. After work, I always sit on the sofa to read books or sleep to have a rest. All in all, I'm happy to have it. Anna |
I bought it on Dec. 12th but it got to my home on Dec. 28th. It's a long time. I'm not happy about it. The sofa is too big in my living room. It's my first time to go shopping online. I don't like it at all. Jane |
Great color and great price! I love it. It is soft to sit on. My son likes to play with his toys on the sofa every day. My mother likes sitting on it to watch TV while my father likes reading newspapers on it. White is my favorite color but it is really difficult to keep it tidy. Alan |
The sofa I bought online was good, but the delivery(快递)was terrible. It took half a month to arrive. The delivery service was unhelpful. I had to call them many times. The sofa itself is comfortable and looks nice, but the delivery experience left a bad taste. I wish the service had been as good as the sofa. John |
