中国艺术 皮影戏(素材+语法填空+书面表达)
第一部分 话题素材积累
1.在唐朝(公元618年一公元907年)和宋朝(公元960年-公元1279年)时期,皮影戏在中国许多地方非常流行。皮影戏人偶最初是用纸制成的,后来用驴或牛皮革制成。这就是为什么他们的中文名字是皮影的原因。(汉译英)
2.皮影戏人物的设计遵循了传统的伦理观和审美观。观众可以通过一个人物的脸谱看出他的性格。红色的脸谱代表忠诚,黑色的脸谱代表正直。(汉译英)
3.这些人物都有着大头和小小的身体。男人脸方,前额宽,身材高大强壮;女人脸瘦,嘴小,身材苗条。(汉译英)
4.皮影戏的舞台是一块白布幕,上面投射着平面人偶的影子。皮影戏人偶外形与剪纸相似,不同之处在于它们的关节是用线连接起来的,以便可以自由操作。(汉译英)
5.为了突破只能看到人偶轮廓的限制,皮影戏使用了夸张和重戏剧化的手法。人偶的面孔和服装生动而滑稽有趣。五彩缤纷的颜色、精美的镂刻和流畅的线条使人偶不仅仅是道具,更是艺术品。(汉译英)

Born in the times when there was neither movie nor TV, shadow play has always been on the way of development, 20 (reach) its best days in the Qing Dynasty with it seen all around China. In 2006, shadow play was listed in China’s first national intangible cultural heritage list (非遗目录) Since then, it 21 (win) many awards at home and abroad, which is of positive 22 (important) to the inheritance of shadow play.

2.The design of the figures follows traditional moral evaluation and aesthetics. Audience can tell a figure’s character by seeing his mask. A red mask represents loyalty and a black mask, uprightness.
【详解】
考查名词、动词、形容词和非谓语动词。句子在介绍一般性的事实,时态宜用一般现在时。第一句的主语“皮影戏人物的设计”可用名词短语the design of the figures,为单数,谓语“遵循”可用动词follows,宾语“传统的伦理观和审美观”可用名词短语traditional moral evaluation and aesthetics。第二句的主语“观众”应用名词audience,“可以”可用情态动词can,“看出人物的性格”可用动词短语tell a figure’s character,“通过他的脸谱”可用介词by和动名词短语seeing his mask搭配,作方式状语。第三句的主语“红色的脸谱”应用名词短语a red mask,为单数,谓语“代表”可用动词represents,宾语“忠诚”可用名词loyalty,“黑色的脸谱代表正直”是承接前面的内容,可用连词and衔接,因“代表”与前面有重复,可省略,可用名词短语a black mask表示“黑色的脸谱”,名词uprightness表示“正直”。故可译为:The design of the figures follows traditional moral evaluation and aesthetics. Audience can tell a figure’s character by seeing his mask. A red mask represents loyalty and a black mask, uprightness.
3.The figures all have a large head and a small body. A man has a square face, a broad forehead and a tall strong body while a woman has a thin face, a small mouth and slim body.
【详解】
考查名词、动词短语、名词短语、连词和时态。根据句意以及句子结构可知,表示“这些人物”为名词The figures;表示“都有着大头和小小的身体”应为动词短语all have a large head and a small body;表示“脸方,前额宽,身材高大强壮”应为名词短语a square face, a broad forehead and a tall strong body;表示“然而”为连词while;表示“脸瘦,嘴小,身材苗条”应为名词短语a thin face, a small mouth and slim body,结合句意可知,该句应为一般现在时。故翻译为:The figures all have a large head and a small body. A man has a square face, a broad forehead and a tall strong body while a woman has a thin face, a small mouth and slim body.
4.The stage for the play is a white cloth on which the shadows of flat puppets are projected. Shadow puppets look similar to paper cuttings except that their joints are connected by thread so that they can be operated freely.

6.考查时态和语态。句意:今天我要介绍一种传统的中国民间艺术,皮影戏,它也被称为“影子戏”或“灯影戏”。动词和主语之间是被动关系,此处描述客观事实,用一般现在时的被动语态。主语which替代先行词shadow puppetry,是单数,主谓一致,故填is called。
7.考查连词。句意:皮影戏集工艺、美术、歌剧和音乐于一体,被认为是电影的前身,在中国已经存在了很长时间。后文music和前文名词是并列关系,应用and连接。故填and。

9.考查动词时态。句意:于是,他们制作了一个像李的木偶,并在皇帝面前表演。此处讲述过去发生的事情,用一般过去时,谓语动词用过去式。故填performed。

【导语】
本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一种在中国活跃了2000多年的民间戏剧——皮影戏,包括其制作工序以及存在价值等。
16.
考查冠词。句意:皮影戏是一种在中国活跃了2000多年的民间戏剧,也被称为“影子戏”或“灯影戏”,人们在发光的皮革或纸板上用木偶的影子表演故事。修饰单数可数名词“drama”,表示泛指,用不定冠词修饰。故填a。
17.
考查固定短语。句意:皮影戏是一种在中国活跃了2000多年的民间戏剧,也被称为“影子戏”或“灯影戏”,人们在发光的皮革或纸板上用木偶的影子表演故事。固定短语:be known as,意为“被称作……”,符合句意。故填as。
18.
考查名词的数。句意:皮影戏的制作程序通常要经过以下几个步骤:选皮、制皮、画稿、镂刻、着色、熨平、装订、缀结。根据下文“leather selection, leather making, painting, engraving, color application, sweating and ironing, binding and synthesis.”可知,不止一个步骤,用名词的复数形式。故填steps。
19.
考查形容词。句意:每一步都要小心。分析句子成分可知,空处为形容词担当本句的表语。故填careful。
20.
考查非谓语动词。句意:皮影戏诞生于既没有电影也没有电视的时代,一直在发展,在清代达到了鼎盛时期,在中国各地都能看到它。非谓语动词担当状语,主句主语“shadow play”和动词“reach”之间存在主动关系,用现在分词形式。故填reaching。
21.
考查时态。句意:2006年,皮影戏被列入中国第一批国家级非物质文化遗产名录。这里为本句谓语动词,根据时间状语“Since then”可知,本句时态为现在完成时;主语为“it”,单数,谓语动词用第三人称单数形式。故填has won。
22.
考查名词。句意:此后在国内外多次获奖,对皮影戏的传承具有积极的意义。分析句子成分可知,空处为名词形式,构成“be of+名词”结构。故填importance。
23.
考查非谓语动词。句意:皮影戏是最早传播到国外的中国戏剧艺术之一。这里为非谓语动词担当后置定语,由于被修饰词“Chinese drama arts”前有“the first”修饰,用动词不定式形式。故填to spread。
24.
考查固定搭配。句意:不少外国朋友对它评价很高——“我喜欢皮影的造型,因为它们有一种特殊的风格。”固定搭配:speak highly of,意为“对……评价很高”,符合句意。故填highly。
25.
考查连词。句意:对于我们传统文化中的皮影戏,我们不能让留给我们的戏剧永远消失,让它流传下去。空前“let the drama left to us be lost”和空后“let it be handed down”之间为并列关系,用and连接。故填and。
