Rolland and Adeline are proud parents to nine beautiful children. Their youngest two, daughter Lanto, and son, Rindra, were both born with cleft lip (唇裂) conditions. In Madagascar (马达加斯加), many families have never seen a cleft lip before, so it’s a condition often greeted with fear and misfortune in some rural (农村的) communities.
However, the news of Lanto and Rindra’s cleft lip wasn’t much of a shock for Rolland and Adeline because Rolland’s cousin — a man in his fifties — had lived his entire adult life with an untreated cleft lip. Although seeing a relative with a cleft lip meant the family weren’t afraid of the condition, they knew the negative impact an untreated cleft lip can have on a person’s health and life. As any loving parents would, Rolland and Adeline wanted a better future for their children.
Rolland heard an advertisement on the radio about an Operation Smile surgical programme in Antsirabe, Madagascar. Finding that the children could have the surgery (外科手术) for free was a dream coming true for the family.
When Rolland and his children arrived at the patient village, they were surprised to see so many other families in the same position. After a thorough medical examination and evaluation (评估) by medical volunteers, Lanto was found to be fit enough for surgery, and later got the new smile her parents had dreamed of for her. But, for younger brother Rindra, the journey to a new smile would take a little longer.
Operation Smile has provided hundreds of thousands of safe surgeries for children with cleft lip conditions worldwide. For more information about our work or to find out how you can help, visit www.operationsmile.org.
4. What do most people think of cleft lip in Madagascar?
A. It is beautiful. B. It is normal. C. It is unlucky. D. It is unavoidable.
5. What kept the couple from being scared of their children’s situation?
A. Their children’s smile. B. Their relative’s experience.
C. Their love for their parents. D. The advertisement they saw.
6. What do we know about Operation Smile according to the text?
A. It’s a surgical programme in UK. B. It offered cleft surgery for free.
C. It’s presented on the television. D. It provided any help to those in need.
7. What should be done before deciding on a surgery?

C. Seeking for a doctor. D. Having a health check.
【答案】4. C 5. B 6. B 7. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了一对夫妇为患有唇裂的孩子求医的故事。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“In Madagascar (马达加斯加), many families have never seen a cleft lip before, so it’s a condition often greeted with fear and misfortune in some rural (农村的) communities.(在马达加斯加,许多家庭以前从未见过唇裂,所以在一些农村社区,这种情况经常伴随着恐惧和不幸)”可知,在马达加斯加,人们认为患唇裂是不幸的。故选C。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“However, the news of Lanto and Rindra’s cleft lip wasn’t much of a shock for Rolland and Adeline because Rolland’s cousin — a man in his fifties — had lived his entire adult life with an untreated cleft lip.(然而,兰托和林德拉唇裂的消息对罗兰和艾德琳来说并没有太大的震惊,因为罗兰的表弟——一个50多岁的男人——成年后一直患有未治疗的唇裂)”可知,由于他们亲戚也有这样的经历,这对夫妇对唇裂并不是很害怕。故选B。
6题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“Finding that the children could have the surgery (外科手术) for free was a dream coming true for the family.(发现孩子们可以免费做手术对这个家庭来说是一个梦想成真)”可知,“微笑行动”手术项目提供免费的唇裂手术。故选B。

Music streaming platforms (平台) such as Spotify and Apple Music have completely changed how people listen to music nowadays. By paying very affordable prices, people can access music very easily. However, while these platforms may provide benefits for some artists, up-and-coming artists are being left behind because they only focus on big names and creating profits.
Because of COVID-19, musicians have not been able to tour or perform live in many countries, which contributes to a large part of their income. In a YouTube interview, up-and-coming Texas artist Mobey mentioned that “The majority of my income comes from playing live shows. Usually that means around 50% — 70% of what we expect to make in a year”. With these factors, small artists are finding it increasingly difficult to make it in the industry due to the lack of investment (投资) into new talent.
Small artists on Spotify and Apple Music can expect to make little to nothing. An artist on Spotify can expect to earn an average of $0.003 per stream or around $3 per 1,000 streams for one of their songs. On Apple Music, artists can expect to make a little more with an average of $0.01 per stream, or around $10 with 1,000 streams. Even if they could hit around 1,000 streams, they have to pay music distribution (分发) platforms needed for their music to be shown on the streaming platforms such as DistroKid, whose cheapest plan is $20.
A new artist would find it very difficult to promote their music outside of their social media accounts which may not even have a large amount of followers. They probably cannot get large amounts of streams on their music since it is not being promoted due to the lack of exposure (宣传) they have on social media.
With the takeover of music streaming platforms, many artists are finding it increasingly difficult to make a sustainable (可持续的) living from their love for music. A simple way these platforms can enable new artists to keep making music is to increase their payouts per stream for their music. Hopefully the music streaming industry will make similar changes to improve the situation of their artists.
8. What is the problem with music streaming platforms?
A. They ignore small artists. B. They are not user-friendly.
C. They are very difficult to manage. D. They limit the number of small artists’ songs.
9. What do artist Mobey’s words center on?
A. His lack of investment. B. His total income in a year.
C. The main source of his income. D. The reason for his fewer live shows.
10. What do the figures in paragraph 3 show?
A. How a music streaming platform works.
B. Small artists’ hope for music streaming platforms.
C. Small artists’ dislike for music streaming platforms.
D. Why small artists earn little on music streaming platforms.
11. What is the best title for the text?
A. Music streaming platforms: Do they really put profits first?
B. Music streaming platforms: Are they a chance or challenge to artists?
C. Music streaming platforms: Have they harmed the industry for artists?
D. Music streaming platforms: Could they offer music lovers better services?
【答案】8. A 9. C 10. D 11. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍的是一些新的流媒体平台对新的艺术家并不友好,这些平台只关注大牌和创造利润,忽视小艺术家,让他们几乎赚不到钱。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中“However, while these platforms may provide benefits for some artists, up-and-coming artists are being left behind because they only focus on big names and creating profits.(然而,虽然这些平台可能会为一些艺术家带来好处,但崭露头角的艺术家却被抛在了后面,因为他们只关注大牌和创造利润。)”可知,音乐流媒体平台往往会忽视那些崭露头角的音乐家,因为他们只关注大牌和创造利润。故选A。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中“In a YouTube interview, up-and-coming Texas artist Mobey mentioned that “The majority of my income comes from playing live shows. Usually that means around 50%-70% of what we expect to make in a year”. (在YouTube的一次采访中,德克萨斯的新秀艺术家Mobey提到:“我的大部分收入来自现场演出。通常这意味着我们一年的预期收入的50%-70%左右。”)”可知,Mobey的话主要阐述的是他的收入来源。故选C。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段中“Small artists on Spotify and Apple Music can expect to make little to nothing. (Spotify和Apple Music上的小艺人几乎赚不到钱。)”以及“An artist on Spotify can expect to earn an average of $0.003 per stream or around $3 per 1, 000 streams for one of their songs. On Apple Music, artists can expect to make a little more with an average of $0.01 per stream, or around $10 with 1, 000 streams. (在Spotify上,艺人平均每次播放能赚到0.003美元,或者一首歌曲每播放1000次能赚到3美元左右。在Apple Music上,艺人平均每次播放0.01美元可以多赚一点,播放1000次可以赚10美元左右。)”以及“Even if they could hit around 1,000 streams, they have to pay music distribution (分发) platforms needed for their music to be shown on the streaming platforms such as DistroKid, whose cheapest plan is $20.(即使他们的音乐播放量达到1000次左右,他们也必须向音乐发行平台付费,这样他们的音乐才能在像DistroKid这样的流媒体平台上播放,其最便宜的计划是20美元。)”可知,本段中的数字解释了Spotify和Apple Music上的小艺人几乎赚不到钱的原因。故选D。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段中“However, while these platforms may provide benefits for some artists, up-and-coming artists are being left behind because they only focus on big names and creating profits.( 然而,虽然这些平台可能会为一些艺术家带来好处,但崭露头角的艺术家却被抛在了后面,因为他们只关注大牌和创造利润。)”以及通读全文可知,文章主要介绍的是一些新的流媒体平台对新的艺术家并不友好,这些平台只关注大牌和创造利润,忽视小艺术家,让他们几乎赚不到钱。C选项“Music streaming platforms: Have they harmed the industry for artists?(音乐流媒体平台:它们是否损害了艺人的利益?)”概括文章主题。故选C。
D
It’s been nearly two decades since the traditional clothing style Hanfu first started to reappear in China. Since then it has gone from a small cultural movement celebrating an ancient fashion to a trend that is booming on social media, having been adopted by China’s Generation Z as a means of connecting with their past. Instead of following other cultures blindly, Generation Z now have different opinions about what trend is by promoting local culture while having an objective view of exotic cultural products.
The new tastes of Generation Z — young people born after 1995 — are well represented on Bilibili. In the recent New Year’s Eve gala presented by Bilibili, it attracted more than 100 million views within 48 hours with a colourful set of programmes ranging from Peking Opera to classical Chinese cartoons. The same is also true of movie industry. Last year, for the first time, the top 10 most viewed films in China were all domestic films, while the ticket sales for imported films have dropped to only 16.28 percent.
“Generation Z grew up with the rapid development of China and under good economic conditions. With the development of the Chinese Internet industry, they have more access to diverse international information and culture, which bring them a much broader vision and makes them more open and confident in analyzing foreign culture. Apart from taking pride in China’s rapid development, this generation also pursues individuality and values devotion to the country, ” Professor Zhang Yiwu said.
He also noted that the popular rock and punk culture pursued by the 70s and 80s generation is more of a challenge against real life and local culture. Some people who were born in the 1970s and 1980s did not grow up in the Internet age — they experienced the transformation of China going from poor to rich first-hand. This kind of longing and admiration of the West came from a lack of confidence.
However, Generation Z now have the confidence to look at Western culture with equal status. This kind of cultural confidence will result in China being more active and creative in its development on the international stage in the future.
12. What does the underlined word “exotic” in Paragraph 1 mean?
A. Classic. B. Foreign. C. Traditional. D. Fashionable.
13. Why is Bilibili mentioned in Paragraph 2?
A. To promote Chinese Internet industry. B. To highlight the popularity of national art.
C. To confirm the rise of new media. D. To show the popularity of New Year’s gala.
14. What do we know about Generation Z from the text?
A. They have a stronger cultural identity. B. They are longing for cultural diversity.
C. They have made China develop rapidly. D. They are more fond of foreign culture.
15. What is the main idea of the text?
A. A confident country leads to a better future.
B. Cultural confidence is of great significance.
C. China’s new generation redefine national culture as trendy.
D. Hanfu style connects ancient fashion and modern trends.
【答案】12. B 13. B 14. A 15. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了Z一代不再盲目追随其他文化,而是在客观看待异域文化产品的同时,通过弘扬本土文化,对什么是潮流有不同的看法。
【12题详解】
词句猜测题。根据划线词所在的句子“Instead of following other cultures blindly, Generation Z now have different opinions about what trend is by promoting local culture (Z一代不再盲目追随其他文化,而是对推广当地文化的趋势有不同的看法)”可知,Z一代不再追随其他文化,对推广当地文化的趋势有不同的看法,与此同时,他们对于国外的文化产品有一个客观的看法。划线词的意思与local相对应,意为“外国的”。故选B。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段的“The new tastes of Generation Z— young people born after 1995—are well represented on Bilibili. In the recent New Year’s Eve gala presented by Bilibili, it attracted more than 100 million views within 48 hours with a colourful set of programmes ranging from Peking Opera to classical Chinese cartoons. The same is also true of movie industry. Last year, for the first time, the top 10 most viewed films in China were all domestic films, while the ticket sales for imported films have dropped to only 16.28 percent. (Z一代的新口味—1995年后出生的年轻人—在Bilibili上得到了很好的体现。在Bilibili最近举办的除夕晚会上,48小时内吸引了超过1亿人次观看,节目丰富多彩,从京剧到中国古典动画片应有尽有。电影业也是如此。去年,中国最受欢迎的十大电影首次全部是国产电影,而进口电影的票房下降到仅16.28%。)”可知,Bilibili上包含了从京剧到中国古典动画片的节目吸引了很多人观看,这些都属于本土文化,由此可推知,Bilibili是为了突出国内艺术的流行性。故选B。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“However, the Generation Z now have the confidence to look at Western culture with equal status.This kind of cultural confidence will result in China being more active and creative in its development on the international stage in the future. (然而,Z一代现在有信心以平等的地位看待西方文化。这种文化自信,将使中国未来在国际舞台上的发展更加积极和富有创造性。)”可知,他们以平等的地位看待西方文化,对自己的本土文化有更强大的自信。由此可推知,他们有更强烈的文化认同感。故选A。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。阅读全文以及根据第一段的“Instead of following other cultures blindly, Generation Z now have different opinions about what trend is by promoting local culture while having an objective view of exotic cultural products. (Z一代不再盲目追随其他文化,而是在客观看待异域文化产品的同时,通过弘扬本土文化,对什么是潮流有不同的看法。)”可知,本文主要讲述了Z一代不再盲目追随其他文化,而是在客观看待异域文化产品的同时,通过弘扬本土文化,对什么是潮流有不同的看法,表现出这一代对本土文化有更强大的自信。故选C。

Do you know the Dragon Boat Festival? It is one of the four top traditional Chinese festivals and I want to share its origin and customs with you.
The Dragon Boat Festival falls on the fifth day of the fifth lunar month and it has a history of two thousand years. The festival is in memory of Qu Yuan, who was a patriotic poet in ancient times. On that day, people often get together with their family to eat rice dumplings and hang the moxa grass on the door to pray for disaster relief. In southern parts of China where there are abundant rivers and lakes, people often hold the dragon boat races, whose lively atmosphere always brightens the audience.

Rolland and Adeline are proud parents to nine beautiful children. Their youngest two, daughter Lanto, and son, Rindra, were both born with cleft lip (唇裂) conditions. In Madagascar (马达加斯加), many families have never seen a cleft lip before, so it’s a condition often greeted with fear and misfortune in some rural (农村的) communities.
However, the news of Lanto and Rindra’s cleft lip wasn’t much of a shock for Rolland and Adeline because Rolland’s cousin — a man in his fifties — had lived his entire adult life with an untreated cleft lip. Although seeing a relative with a cleft lip meant the family weren’t afraid of the condition, they knew the negative impact an untreated cleft lip can have on a person’s health and life. As any loving parents would, Rolland and Adeline wanted a better future for their children.
Rolland heard an advertisement on the radio about an Operation Smile surgical programme in Antsirabe, Madagascar. Finding that the children could have the surgery (外科手术) for free was a dream coming true for the family.
When Rolland and his children arrived at the patient village, they were surprised to see so many other families in the same position. After a thorough medical examination and evaluation (评估) by medical volunteers, Lanto was found to be fit enough for surgery, and later got the new smile her parents had dreamed of for her. But, for younger brother Rindra, the journey to a new smile would take a little longer.
Operation Smile has provided hundreds of thousands of safe surgeries for children with cleft lip conditions worldwide. For more information about our work or to find out how you can help, visit www.operationsmile.org.
4. What do most people think of cleft lip in Madagascar?
A. It is beautiful. B. It is normal. C. It is unlucky. D. It is unavoidable.
5. What kept the couple from being scared of their children’s situation?
A. Their children’s smile. B. Their relative’s experience.
C. Their love for their parents. D. The advertisement they saw.
6. What do we know about Operation Smile according to the text?
A It’s a surgical programme in UK. B. It offered cleft surgery for free.
C. It’s presented on the television. D. It provided any help to those in need.

Music streaming platforms (平台) such as Spotify and Apple Music have completely changed how people listen to music nowadays. By paying very affordable prices, people can access music very easily. However, while these platforms may provide benefits for some artists, up-and-coming artists are being left behind because they only focus on big names and creating profits.
Because of COVID-19 musicians have not been able to tour or perform live in many countries, which contributes to a large part of their income. In a YouTube interview, up-and-coming Texas artist Mobey mentioned that “The majority of my income comes from playing live shows. Usually that means around 50% — 70% of what we expect to make in a year”. With these factors, small artists are finding it increasingly difficult to make it in the industry due to the lack of investment (投资) into new talent.
Small artists on Spotify and Apple Music can expect to make little to nothing. An artist on Spotify can expect to earn an average of $0.003 per stream or around $3 per 1,000 streams for one of their songs. On Apple Music, artists can expect to make a little more with an average of $0.01 per stream, or around $10 with 1,000 streams. Even if they could hit around 1,000 streams, they have to pay music distribution (分发) platforms needed for their music to be shown on the streaming platforms such as DistroKid, whose cheapest plan is $20.
A new artist would find it very difficult to promote their music outside of their social media accounts which may not even have a large amount of followers. They probably cannot get large amounts of streams on their music since it is not being promoted due to the lack of exposure (宣传) they have on social media.
With the takeover of music streaming platforms, many artists are finding it increasingly difficult to make a sustainable (可持续的) living from their love for music. A simple way these platforms can enable new artists to keep making music is to increase their payouts per stream for their music. Hopefully the music streaming industry will make similar changes to improve the situation of their artists.
8. What is the problem with music streaming platforms?
A. They ignore small artists. B. They are not user-friendly.
C. They are very difficult to manage. D. They limit the number of small artists’ songs.
9. What do artist Mobey’s words center on?
A. His lack of investment. B. His total income in a year.
C. The main source of his income. D. The reason for his fewer live shows.
10. What do the figures in paragraph 3 show?
A. How a music streaming platform works.
B. Small artists’ hope for music streaming platforms.
C. Small artists’ dislike for music streaming platforms.
D. Why small artists earn little on music streaming platforms.
11. What is the best title for the text?
A. Music streaming platforms: Do they really put profits first?
B. Music streaming platforms: Are they a chance or challenge to artists?
C. Music streaming platforms: Have they harmed the industry for artists?
D. Music streaming platforms: Could they offer music lovers better services?
D
It’s been nearly two decades since the traditional clothing style Hanfu first started to reappear in China. Since then it has gone from a small cultural movement celebrating an ancient fashion to a trend that is booming on social media, having been adopted by China’s Generation Z as a means of connecting with their past. Instead of following other cultures blindly, Generation Z now have different opinions about what trend is by promoting local culture while having an objective view of exotic cultural products.
The new tastes of Generation Z — young people born after 1995 — are well represented on Bilibili. In the recent New Year’s Eve gala presented by Bilibili, it attracted more than 100 million views within 48 hours with a colourful set of programmes ranging from Peking Opera to classical Chinese cartoons. The same is also true of movie industry. Last year, for the first time, the top 10 most viewed films in China were all domestic films, while the ticket sales for imported films have dropped to only 16.28 percent.
“Generation Z grew up with the rapid development of China and under good economic conditions. With the development of the Chinese Internet industry, they have more access to diverse international information and culture, which bring them a much broader vision and makes them more open and confident in analyzing foreign culture. Apart from taking pride in China’s rapid development, this generation also pursues individuality and values devotion to the country, ” Professor Zhang Yiwu said.
He also noted that the popular rock and punk culture pursued by the 70s and 80s generation is more of a challenge against real life and local culture. Some people who were born in the 1970s and 1980s did not grow up in the Internet age — they experienced the transformation of China going from poor to rich first-hand. This kind of longing and admiration of the West came from a lack of confidence.
However, Generation Z now have the confidence to look at Western culture with equal status. This kind of cultural confidence will result in China being more active and creative in its development on the international stage in the future.
12. What does the underlined word “exotic” in Paragraph 1 mean?
A. Classic. B. Foreign. C. Traditional. D. Fashionable.
13. Why is Bilibili mentioned in Paragraph 2?
A. To promote Chinese Internet industry. B. To highlight the popularity of national art.
C. To confirm the rise of new media. D. To show the popularity of New Year’s gala.
14. What do we know about Generation Z from the text?
A. They have a stronger cultural identity. B. They are longing for cultural diversity.
C. They have made China develop rapidly. D. They are more fond of foreign culture.
15. What is the main idea of the text?
A. A confident country leads to a better future.
B. Cultural confidence is of great significance.
C. China’s new generation redefine national culture as trendy.
D. Hanfu style connects ancient fashion and modern trends.
