Ⅲ.阅读理解
(2024·福州高一期末)Skill of copying and moving images onto paper is an art form shining in history,Zhao Xu reports.Rubbing,the tracing(描摹) of characters onto a piece of paper,reached its golden age during the Song Dynasty(960-1279).
To do this,a thin piece of paper was placed over the surface of the stone tablet(石板) carved with characters.Then water,or later ink,was applied smoothly to the back of the paper with just the right amount of pressure,to soften the paper and allow for a total moving of the details onto it.The paper was left to dry and then be lifted off the stone surface,carrying with it a copy of the original(原作).
Repeated hundreds of thousands of times during the Song era,this handson skill enabled educated members of Song society to have a chance to learn from master calligraphic works either from their own times or from earlier dynasties.Oftentimes,the original calligraphy,or even its stone version,became lost over time,thus making the rubbings the only surviving copy of the masterworks that had once existed.In that sense,the Song rubbings,and those behind them,have helped to preserve a cultural relic much valued then and now.
Now,art lovers have the chance to visit it at an exhibition(展览) held at Beijing's Palace Museum themed the Song rubbings.Of the 40 pieces on show,20 are drawn from the collection of the Palace Museum,which holds a total of 150 Song rubbings.The other half are lent for the first time by the Art Museum of the Chinese University of Hong Kong(CUHK),whose collection of rubbings were donated by J.S.Lee.
“What we have here is not just a showcase of the beauty of ink and paper,the art of calligraphy,carving and rubbing,but also the telling of stories shining in cultural pride and common spirit,” said Wang Xudong,director of the Palace Museum.

I believe that writing is the most important invention in history.It is the most important for two reasons.First,it helped governments and businesses work better.Second,it helped ideas to spread.
Writing was invented by the Sumerians around 5,000 years ago.1. One example is The Code of Hammurabi.It was a list of laws written on a huge stone block for all to see.The law was written down,so every person knew what the law was.They knew what would happen if they broke it.
The Sumerians also wrote down rules about their government.The rules described how the government should work.2. The rule said that the worker would have to pay a fine.This made the government act more responsibly.
The Sumerians also wrote down business contracts(合同).That's because a contract explains what both sides promise to do.Written contracts helped the Sumerians run better businesses.This helped their civilization to grow.
3. It was an epic poem(史诗) called The Epic of Gilgamesh.The work is about more than just two friends on an adventure.It is also about life and death,happiness and sadness.It's full of big ideas about the world.When the Sumerians wrote these ideas down,they spread.As a result,the Sumerians could study and talk about these big ideas.4.
