Topic content:
The following passage is selected from The Old Man and the Sea. After reading, complete the following questions.
The child picked up an old army blanket from the bed and spread it on the back of the chair, covering the old man's shoulders. These two shoulders are very strange. People are very old, but their shoulders are still strong and their necks are still solid. When the old man falls asleep and his head droops forward, the wrinkles are not obvious. His shirt has been patched many times, just like his sail. These patches have been faded into many different colors by the sun. The old man's head was very old, his eyes closed, and his face was not angry at all. When the newspaper was spread on his knee, it was not blown away by his arm in the evening wind. He is barefoot.

Test core:
Phonetics: Pinyin. As far as Chinese is concerned, a syllable is usually recorded with a Chinese character, and Pinyin is generally composed of initials, finals and tones. Initials cannot form syllables alone, but finals can. The syllable formed by finals is called "zero initial". Tone can distinguish the meaning of words. There are four tones in Mandarin: Yin Ping (the first tone), Yang Ping (the second tone), Shang Sheng (the third tone), Qu Sheng (the fourth tone).
