Have you thought about their meanings in films? Much like colors, different shapes can show different features of characters in the scenes. ② Circles represent things that are soft and natural. The round shape reminds us of things that appear in nature, like the sun, raindrops and so on. We can also connect circles with beautiful eyes, babies’ round faces… All these things make us feel happy and warm. This is why so many cartoon characters’ bodies—heroes, good people—are round in shape, because circles represent goodness, happiness and friendliness. ③ Squares show things that are unnatural or man-made, or things that are boring or old-fashioned. In the cartoon film Up, Carl has a square face and wears square glasses, while Russell, an 8-year-old boy with a round face, always wears round medals. These shapes show the characters’ personalities. Carl is stubborn (固执的) and lonely, while Russell is lovely and full of energy. ④ The angriest shape is the triangle. Every kid who draws a monster with sharp teeth draws a row of triangles, don’t they? That’s because the shape represents fear, distrust and doubt in some way. Look at the bad guys in cartoons—they are all drawn with plenty of points and triangles, like Shengongbao in Ne Zha. And triangles are stable (稳固的) and don’t easily fall down. In films, this feature makes bad people difficult to deal with. ⑤ Not only in cartoons, but also in other kinds of films, different shapes are used for the same purpose. So, try to find the hidden shapes and you will know what the characters are like. 1．How does the writer explain the relationship between squares and characters’ personalities? A．By telling a story. B．By listing numbers. C．By raising a question. D．By giving an example. 2．Which picture does the underlined word “triangle” refer to? A． B． C． D． 3．Which of the following is the structure of the article?（①＝Para 1,②＝Para 2……） A． B． C． D． 4．What is the text mainly about? A．Why different shapes represent different things. B．What makes kids fascinated by heroes in films. C．What different shapes represent in different films. D．How cartoons make different colors and shapes 2 （2024·内蒙古呼和浩特·二模）Beijing Opera is one of the traditional Chinese drama art forms and the largest Chinese opera form. Having a history of about 200 years, it is developed from many other drama forms, mostly from the local drama “Huiban”. It was very popular in south China during the 18th century. Theatrical (戏剧的) art forms in many other countries do not have singing, dancing and spoken parts together in one single drama. An opera singer, for example, neither dances nor speaks on stage; there are no singing or dancing parts in a modern play; in a dance drama, the dancer doesn’t speak or sing. Traditional Chinese drama, including Beijing Opera, is a kind of entertainment (娱乐). It includes spoken parts, singing and dancing. Beijing Opera has spread to many other places. Mei Lanfang, one of the most famous performers of all, was the first to introduce Beijing Opera to foreigners and made highly successful tours to foreign countries. “You will doubt and sometimes be a little bored, but you will be interested gradually. You will be strongly attracted to Beijing Opera, even if you know nothing about the drama background.” This is how one traveler described his first experience in watching Beijing Opera.

Or you may have seen other people play the game. But did you ever wonder how it got its name? Or did you wonder when people started playing ping-pong? Ping-pong is the sound you hear when the small plastic ball bounces (反弹) on the table. It was first called “table tennis”. That is because ping-pong is very much like the game of tennis. But ping-pong is not played on a court. It is played on a nine-feet-long and five-feet-wide table. Before people played ping-pong, the game of tennis was very popular. The game of tennis was played outdoors. No one knows who played the first game of table tennis. It’s fun to think about what may have happened. Maybe a group of friends were stuck inside on a rainy day. Maybe they wished they could play tennis. They might have had a large table and put a net across the table.

They have a net like a tennis court. The net goes across the middle of the table. Like tennis players, ping-pong players try to hit a ball over the net. In tennis, players use rackets with strings.

It may be hard to believe, but there are 14 standard football fields (标准足球场) in the county, and they are free and open to the public. In Rongjiang, people’s love for football started in the 1940s. Around that time, Guangxi University moved to Rongjiang and introduced football to the area. The university students played football basketball, and table tennis inside the school walls while the locals watched from outside. One thing led to another, and the love for football spread into the local communities (社区) in the 1990s. Here in Rongjiang, people love to go to the football fields on weekends.

Now there is an app through which people can enjoy delicious and cheap takeaway food. Too Good To Go, an app being used in the UK, allows users to order leftover (剩余的) food at a low price from restaurants. The purpose is to cut down on food waste, as lots of restaurants usually throw away the food that can still be eaten at the end of the day. Users just need to pick a restaurant and pay through the app. Then they pick up their food at planned times usually around closing time or after peak mealtimes (高峰用餐时间). “Food waste is one of the biggest problems we have in this world,” one creator of the app said. “The restaurant industry is wasting about 600,000 tons of food each year.” By the end of August, Too Good To Go had helped save about 600 meals in the UK. Users also have the choice to give meals to people who are in need by donating one British pound or more through the app. By the end of August, more than 1,100 meals had been donated. Too Good To Go isn’t the first app to try to deal with food waste. In Spain, the Yo No Desperdicio app allows people to exchange left over food with each other. In the US, the Food Cowboy app allows food shops to sell “ugly vegetables” that most customers don’t buy to charities and food banks that need them. 根据短文内容选择最佳答案 24．Why do lots of people like having a takeaway better?

However, charity shops only sell 20% of those donated clothes. The unsold clothes are put in large bags and then travel to other countries to be sold again or just go to landfills (垃圾填埋厂). Every year, 92 million tons of clothes end up in landfills. This means every second a truck full of clothes arrives at a landfill. The Kantamanto market in Accra, the capital of Ghana, is one of the world’s largest secondhand clothing markets. Every week, 20 million pieces of clothes arrive at Kantamanto. But about 40% of them leave the market as waste. Workers either burn the waste or put it underground. However, the city is near the sea, so there’s not enough space for landfills. That’s why lots of clothing waste ends up on the beach. As it goes into the sea, fish and other sea life are in danger. Sea turtles (海龟) can’t get to the land, and fish can’t grow because they may get caught in the clothes. The waste is also bringing trouble to local fishermen. They can’t catch as many fish as before since most of the things they catch are clothes. 29．How many of the donated clothes do charity shops sell? A．20%. B．40%. C．80%.

The two sides of Ma Mian Qun are pleated (起褶的) , and there is a smooth part in the middle, commonly known as “Ma Mian”. Why is it called “Ma Mian”? In fact, “Ma Mian” is a kind of structure used for protection in the city wall system. However, all the books about Ma Mian Qun only show that the smooth surface without pleats in the middle is called “Ma Mian”. But there is no further explanation of how Ma Mian Qun got its name. Ma Mian Qun is colorful, mostly red and blue. Red means good luck and joy. According to Han customs, women usually wore red skirts during celebrations of festivals. In the Qing dynasty, blue was also common and popular, paired with black and yellow. Ma Mian Qun has different kinds of patterns with different meanings. For example, dragon and phoenix patterns show the love between a man and a woman or a beautiful marriage. Peony (牡丹) is a symbol of wealth and honor. Recently, Ma Mian Qun has become a popular form of skirt for Hanfu fans. More and more modern fashion designers find ideas from Ma Mian Qun. For example, some get ideas from the patterns.

And she loves it. “It has never failed to turn heads and some warm strangers would even come and take photos with me, especially when I hang out with my friends,” says Meng. Hanfu generally refers to clothing of the Han people before the Manchus (满族) controlled the Qing Dynasty. The traditional costume often features a long flowing robe (长袍) with loose sleeves that hang down to the knees and a belt at the waist. In recent years, hanfu has become more and more popular in China. Meng tried on hanfu when she visited the Palace Museum about four years ago, after she found the trend catching on in scenic sites across the capital. “It looked refreshing and carried a sense of ritual (仪式)—kind of a tribute (敬意) to history, especially against the right background.” she says. As Meng’s interest in the historical clothes grew, she lost herself into related (相关的) cultural elements and joined a few interest groups. “It’s interesting to see people discussing hanfu and some of them even greet each other in the old-fashioned way on the streets.” Meng says. According to a Guangzhou-based market company, China’s hanfu market has been growing rapidly. The number of hanfu fans is expected to reach 6.89 million this year, and market sales to hit at least 10.16 billion yuan ($1.58 billion). A report showed that female consumers (消费者) born after 1995 made up the biggest consumer group of hanfu in 2019. Many scenic spots have caught up with the hanfu trend and offer related services to tourists. Popular television dramas and social media influencers have also pushed the hanfu craze (狂热). 36．According to the first paragraph, Meng Ying loves ______.

Every two years in spring, many English people put on a red nose, make a fool of themselves and do “silly” things to make themselves and others laugh. Here are some examples of “silly things” you can do. Invite friends to your house to watch funny films.

Hold a talent show at school and ask your friends and teachers to sing, dance or tell jokes. Sell tickets for the show to the rest of the school. Have a “red nose party” at your house. All your friends come dressed in red, and you serve red food and drinks. If they don’t wear red, they have to pay a fine. Get the students at your school to make funny sculptures (雕塑品), using all kinds of art materials. Sell tickets to your Red Nose Day exhibition (展览), and part of the money goes to Comic Relief.

At first, community canteens mostly served old people. As the elderly may face challenges in cooking, and many young people cannot cook, these canteens have become perfect places for the two generations (一代人) to become meal friends. They can have lunch and dinner within a 10-minute walk, or the community workers can bring the dishes to them. For only 20 yuan, Fang Wenjing could buy her lunch at a community canteen, which included a meat dish, a vegetable dish and a bowl of rice. “The dishes have a home-cooked taste, just as I expected. The canteen is also clean,” said Fang. Now the number of young people who’d like to eat in community canteens increases rapidly. Almost 70 percent of its customers are young people. This also encourages community canteens to think of creative ways to provide food and make things easier for people. A canteen in Beijing’s Lugu Community brings out buffet-style (自助模式) dishes. The dishes are sold at 2.48 yuan per 100 grams. This price is lower than the restaurant nearby. A canteen at the Zhanongkou Community in Zhejiang province recently introduced “blind box”. They cost just 6 yuan but have one meat dish and a vegetarian dish. To keep what’s inside each box a surprise, stickers (贴纸) are placed over the see-through top to cover the “main dish”. The “blind boxes” often sell out very quickly. The rise of community canteens is impossible without the efforts of local governments. The government provides support for these canteens, either by providing free space or reducing water and electricity costs. There are now more than 6,700 community canteens in China. And many cities are responding to the call to build service canteens in their communities. 45．Why are community canteens popular according to paragraph 1? A．Because they are cheap. B．Because they are convenient. C．Because they are healthy. D．Because they are delicious. 46．How does Fang Wenjing like the food in the community canteen? A．Tasty. B．Sweet. C．Crispy. D．Clean. 47．What do we know about the “blind box” in the canteen? A．If we buy one blind box, we can get stickers. B．It is not popular among young people. C．We can know the main dish through the top of the box. D．Pay six yuan for it, one meat dish and a vegetarian dish will be served. 48．What does the passage tell us about community canteens? A．Community canteens are no longer only used by the elderly. B．Young people like to go to community canteens because of their creative activities. C．Without government’s help, community canteens can also become popular. D．Either young people like to go to restaurants or elderly people like to go to restaurants. 49．How does the writer feel about the development of community canteens according to the last paragraph?

The institute compared costs using different countries’ GDP per person. GDP per person is the total value of all the work done and things made in a country in one year, divided by the number of people who live there. And the report said the average cost of raising a child in South Korea to the age of 18 is 7.8 times the country’s GDP per person. In China, the average cost of raising a child is about $75,000, which is more than 6. 3 times the GDP per person. It’s even more expensive to raise a child in Chinese cities, with an average cost of almost $94,000. South Korea and China both have very low birth rates. South Korea’s is the lowest in the world — and with those costs, it might be easy to see why. Japan also has a low birth rate, but it costs about 4.3 times the GDP per person to raise a child there. It’s 4.1 times in the US, and 2.1 times in Australia. But it’s not only money that parents have to spend — it’s time too. And this is another reason young people are choosing not to have children, according to the institute. For example, it said that in China, between 2010 and 2018, the amount of time parents spent helping their children with elementary school homework increased from less than four hours to almost six hours per week. 50．What’s the average cost of raising a child to the age of 18 in China?

Have you thought about their meanings in films? Much like colors, different shapes can show different features of characters in the scenes. ② Circles represent things that are soft and natural. The round shape reminds us of things that appear in nature, like the sun, raindrops and so on. We can also connect circles with beautiful eyes, babies’ round faces… All these things make us feel happy and warm. This is why so many cartoon characters’ bodies—heroes, good people—are round in shape, because circles represent goodness, happiness and friendliness. ③ Squares show things that are unnatural or man-made, or things that are boring or old-fashioned. In the cartoon film Up, Carl has a square face and wears square glasses, while Russell, an 8-year-old boy with a round face, always wears round medals. These shapes show the characters’ personalities. Carl is stubborn (固执的) and lonely, while Russell is lovely and full of energy. ④ The angriest shape is the triangle. Every kid who draws a monster with sharp teeth draws a row of triangles, don’t they? That’s because the shape represents fear, distrust and doubt in some way. Look at the bad guys in cartoons—they are all drawn with plenty of points and triangles, like Shengongbao in Ne Zha. And triangles are stable (稳固的) and don’t easily fall down. In films, this feature makes bad people difficult to deal with. ⑤ Not only in cartoons, but also in other kinds of films, different shapes are used for the same purpose. So, try to find the hidden shapes and you will know what the characters are like. 1．How does the writer explain the relationship between squares and characters’ personalities? A．By telling a story.

Having a history of about 200 years, it is developed from many other drama forms, mostly from the local drama “Huiban”. It was very popular in south China during the 18th century. Theatrical (戏剧的) art forms in many other countries do not have singing, dancing and spoken parts together in one single drama. An opera singer, for example, neither dances nor speaks on stage; there are no singing or dancing parts in a modern play; in a dance drama, the dancer doesn’t speak or sing. Traditional Chinese drama, including Beijing Opera, is a kind of entertainment (娱乐). It includes spoken parts, singing and dancing. Beijing Opera has spread to many other places. Mei Lanfang, one of the most famous performers of all, was the first to introduce Beijing Opera to foreigners and made highly successful tours to foreign countries. “You will doubt and sometimes be a little bored, but you will be interested gradually.

Or you may have seen other people play the game. But did you ever wonder how it got its name? Or did you wonder when people started playing ping-pong? Ping-pong is the sound you hear when the small plastic ball bounces (反弹) on the table. It was first called “table tennis”. That is because ping-pong is very much like the game of tennis.

The game of tennis was played outdoors. No one knows who played the first game of table tennis. It’s fun to think about what may have happened.

The university students played football basketball, and table tennis inside the school walls while the locals watched from outside. One thing led to another, and the love for football spread into the local communities (社区) in the 1990s. Here in Rongjiang, people love to go to the football fields on weekends.

Now there is an app through which people can enjoy delicious and cheap takeaway food. Too Good To Go, an app being used in the UK, allows users to order leftover (剩余的) food at a low price from restaurants. The purpose is to cut down on food waste, as lots of restaurants usually throw away the food that can still be eaten at the end of the day. Users just need to pick a restaurant and pay through the app. Then they pick up their food at planned times usually around closing time or after peak mealtimes (高峰用餐时间). “Food waste is one of the biggest problems we have in this world,” one creator of the app said. “The restaurant industry is wasting about 600,000 tons of food each year.” By the end of August, Too Good To Go had helped save about 600 meals in the UK. Users also have the choice to give meals to people who are in need by donating one British pound or more through the app. By the end of August, more than 1,100 meals had been donated. Too Good To Go isn’t the first app to try to deal with food waste. In Spain, the Yo No Desperdicio app allows people to exchange left over food with each other. In the US, the Food Cowboy app allows food shops to sell “ugly vegetables” that most customers don’t buy to charities and food banks that need them. 根据短文内容选择最佳答案 24．Why do lots of people like having a takeaway better?

However, charity shops only sell 20% of those donated clothes. The unsold clothes are put in large bags and then travel to other countries to be sold again or just go to landfills (垃圾填埋厂). Every year, 92 million tons of clothes end up in landfills. This means every second a truck full of clothes arrives at a landfill. The Kantamanto market in Accra, the capital of Ghana, is one of the world’s largest secondhand clothing markets. Every week, 20 million pieces of clothes arrive at Kantamanto. But about 40% of them leave the market as waste. Workers either burn the waste or put it underground. However, the city is near the sea, so there’s not enough space for landfills. That’s why lots of clothing waste ends up on the beach. As it goes into the sea, fish and other sea life are in danger. Sea turtles (海龟) can’t get to the land, and fish can’t grow because they may get caught in the clothes. The waste is also bringing trouble to local fishermen. They can’t catch as many fish as before since most of the things they catch are clothes. 29．How many of the donated clothes do charity shops sell? A．20%. B．40%. C．80%.

The two sides of Ma Mian Qun are pleated (起褶的) , and there is a smooth part in the middle, commonly known as “Ma Mian”. Why is it called “Ma Mian”? In fact, “Ma Mian” is a kind of structure used for protection in the city wall system. However, all the books about Ma Mian Qun only show that the smooth surface without pleats in the middle is called “Ma Mian”. But there is no further explanation of how Ma Mian Qun got its name. Ma Mian Qun is colorful, mostly red and blue. Red means good luck and joy. According to Han customs, women usually wore red skirts during celebrations of festivals. In the Qing dynasty, blue was also common and popular, paired with black and yellow. Ma Mian Qun has different kinds of patterns with different meanings. For example, dragon and phoenix patterns show the love between a man and a woman or a beautiful marriage. Peony (牡丹) is a symbol of wealth and honor.

And she loves it. “It has never failed to turn heads and some warm strangers would even come and take photos with me, especially when I hang out with my friends,” says Meng. Hanfu generally refers to clothing of the Han people before the Manchus (满族) controlled the Qing Dynasty. The traditional costume often features a long flowing robe (长袍) with loose sleeves that hang down to the knees and a belt at the waist. In recent years, hanfu has become more and more popular in China. Meng tried on hanfu when she visited the Palace Museum about four years ago, after she found the trend catching on in scenic sites across the capital. “It looked refreshing and carried a sense of ritual (仪式)—kind of a tribute (敬意) to history, especially against the right background.” she says. As Meng’s interest in the historical clothes grew, she lost herself into related (相关的) cultural elements and joined a few interest groups. “It’s interesting to see people discussing hanfu and some of them even greet each other in the old-fashioned way on the streets.” Meng says. According to a Guangzhou-based market company, China’s hanfu market has been growing rapidly. The number of hanfu fans is expected to reach 6.89 million this year, and market sales to hit at least 10.16 billion yuan ($1.58 billion). A report showed that female consumers (消费者) born after 1995 made up the biggest consumer group of hanfu in 2019. Many scenic spots have caught up with the hanfu trend and offer related services to tourists. Popular television dramas and social media influencers have also pushed the hanfu craze (狂热). 36．According to the first paragraph, Meng Ying loves ______.

All your friends come dressed in red, and you serve red food and drinks. If they don’t wear red, they have to pay a fine. Get the students at your school to make funny sculptures (雕塑品), using all kinds of art materials. Sell tickets to your Red Nose Day exhibition (展览), and part of the money goes to Comic Relief.

At first, community canteens mostly served old people. As the elderly may face challenges in cooking, and many young people cannot cook, these canteens have become perfect places for the two generations (一代人) to become meal friends. They can have lunch and dinner within a 10-minute walk, or the community workers can bring the dishes to them. For only 20 yuan, Fang Wenjing could buy her lunch at a community canteen, which included a meat dish, a vegetable dish and a bowl of rice. “The dishes have a home-cooked taste, just as I expected. The canteen is also clean,” said Fang. Now the number of young people who’d like to eat in community canteens increases rapidly. Almost 70 percent of its customers are young people. This also encourages community canteens to think of creative ways to provide food and make things easier for people. A canteen in Beijing’s Lugu Community brings out buffet-style (自助模式) dishes. The dishes are sold at 2.48 yuan per 100 grams. This price is lower than the restaurant nearby. A canteen at the Zhanongkou Community in Zhejiang province recently introduced “blind box”. They cost just 6 yuan but have one meat dish and a vegetarian dish. To keep what’s inside each box a surprise, stickers (贴纸) are placed over the see-through top to cover the “main dish”. The “blind boxes” often sell out very quickly. The rise of community canteens is impossible without the efforts of local governments. The government provides support for these canteens, either by providing free space or reducing water and electricity costs. There are now more than 6,700 community canteens in China. And many cities are responding to the call to build service canteens in their communities. 45．Why are community canteens popular according to paragraph 1? A．Because they are cheap. B．Because they are convenient. C．Because they are healthy. D．Because they are delicious. 46．How does Fang Wenjing like the food in the community canteen? A．Tasty. B．Sweet. C．Crispy. D．Clean. 47．What do we know about the “blind box” in the canteen? A．If we buy one blind box, we can get stickers. B．It is not popular among young people. C．We can know the main dish through the top of the box. D．Pay six yuan for it, one meat dish and a vegetarian dish will be served. 48．What does the passage tell us about community canteens?
