Jade is a green stone that was expensive and extremely difficult to cut. This did not stop the 
Chinese from creating beautiful objects and art pieces out of this material, however. In fact, the 
long lasting feature of jade actually makes it too valuable. Because of long lasting feature, some 
people believed that jade contained mystic powers. People also thought it had mystic powers 
because it produced a beautiful noise when it was hit. Chinese people used jade as the material for 
musical instruments in the past. These musical instruments played noise of notes from a little wind.
Especially in China, jade was also used in clothes. Jade jewelry was probably popular because 
people knew that it would not break. Jade was also used in religious ceremonies and jade objects 
were often placed in tombs. The wealthy members of the Han Dynasty were even buried in jade 
suits because people believed that this stone would protect the dead from outside forces. Because 
of difficult cutting, these suits usually took a few years to complete.

As I love children, I work at a summer camp for kids every year. Nearly all the kids know 
how to swim and play table-tennis before they come, but things like rock climbing are new 
experiences for them. Some of them are very nervous and deny taking part in it. Some children 
miss home.
You might expect them to be young children but they are actually from the ten to thirteen- 
year-olds. We don’t let them use their mobile phones. First we tell them they can phone home 
after lunch.
Then when they ask again, usually after dinner, we suggest doing it the next day. Most 
children will be fine in a couple of days. It’s surprising how many children come and thank us 
because they have had a great time. It’s not just the children who miss. We have parents who 
call all the time, asking how their child is getting on, which is quite unnecessary. Often their 
son or daughter will be busy, playing games, so we have to tell parents to ring back another 
time.
109. According to the passage, what 
is the writer trying to do in this 
text?
A) Explain how children make friends at a 
research camp.
B) Describe how children enjoy staying at 
a summer camp.
C) Advise children how to have lunch at a 
summer camp.
D) Suggest how parents should choose a 
winter camp.
110
. According to the passage, what
does the writer say about rock climbing 
at the camp?
A) Some children find it very boring.
B) Some children refuse to take part 
in it.
C) All children already know how to 
do it.
D) All children prefer rock climbing to 
swimming.
