Once upon a time, there were no rivers or lakes on the earth but only the Eastern Sea in China. There lived four dragons: the Long Dragon, the Yellow Dragon, the Black Dragon and the Pearl Dragon.
One day, the four dragons flew from the sea into the sky. They saw it was too hot and dry everywhere. Many people were praying (祈求) for rain!
Seeing that, theLong Dragon advised, “Let’s go and ask the Jade Emperor (玉皇大帝) for rain.”
Hearing what they said, the Jade Emperor replied,“All right. I’ll send some rain downtomorrow.” However, over one week passed, and not a drop of rain came down.
The four dragons felt sorry and worried. They knew the Jade Emperor never cared much about the people. To save the poor people, they decided to spray (喷洒) seawater towards the sky. Quickly the water poured down like rain and saved the people and their crops (庄稼).
The Jade Emperor soon knew what the four dragons did. He was very angry and ordered Mountain God to press four mountains down upon the four dragons.

It may be hard to believe, but the American Revolution—the war that freed the American states from British control—began over a cup of tea. Tea was not the only thing that caused the war, of course, but it played a very big part.
The British people’s love of tea is well-known. When the British won control over much of North America in the early 1700s, they brought their tea-drinking habits with them. Tea quickly became the continent’s most popular drink. As tea could not be grown locally, just as in Britain, it was shipped into the country—mostly from India.
In the early 1700s, the Britain government made a special deal with the East India Company, as an English trading company. They agreed that no other company was allowed to bring tea to Britain or any country controlled by Britain, including America. It was a great deal for the East India Company, since it meant that the company could decide whatever price it wanted for its products. And it always decided on a high price!
In North America, the local people did not like having to pay such high prices. Instead of overpaying for tea from the British, they turned to Dutch traders, who secretly brought tea to the country that was just as good and much less expensive. Although this broke the law, the American people didn’t care. They got the same cup of tea at a much lower price.
The East India Company, however, didn’t like this at all. By the 1760s, they were losing millions of pounds each year to Dutch traders—a huge amount of money in a time when $60 a year was considered a good income. Instead of reducing their prices to compete with the Dutch, the company asked the British government for help and the government agreed.
In 1767, the British introduced new law that increased the prices of all goods which were brought into America. These laws helped make the East India Company even richer and forced local people to pay much more for everything. The American leaders asked the British government not to do so, but the British refused to listen. These unfair laws increased Americans’ anger about British rule and the rest, as they say, is history.
31.In the early 1700s where did most tea drunk in America come from?
A.China. B.India. C.America. D.Britain.
32.The underlined word “it” in Paragraph 3 refers to ________.
A.the tea maker B.the American government
C.the British government D.the East India Company
33.Why did many Americans begin to buy tea from the Dutch traders?
A.The tea was much cheaper. B.The tea was a lot healthier.
C.They could buy it more easily. D.They didn’t want to support the British.
34.What did the East India Company do to stop losing money?
A.It reduced the price of its tea. B.It improved the taste of its tea.
C.It introduced a new kind of tea. D.It asked the British government for help.
35.What is the passage mainly about?
A.Tea trade in eighteenth-century America.
B.The relationship between America and Britain.
C.A reason for the start of the American Revolutionary War.
D.The introduction of British tea-drinking habits into America.
C
Suppose that you have some free time to kill. There is an enjoyable short video to watch and an interesting 1000-word article to read. You can only choose one of the two. Which one will you pick?
Perhaps the video will be your choice. Over the past few years, watching videos online has become a part of many people’s daily lives. Fewer and fewer people would like to read long articles patiently. Some people fear that video will one day replace (代替) text. But in my opinion, this isn’t going to happen.
Videos can in fact help us learn new information more quickly. However, can they help us fully learn about the ancient world? Many historical stories were recorded using only texts. So, the best way is to read these texts.
Short videos are a type of “instant culture”. They come into and leave our minds like flying cars. Oftentimes, we can’t help but look for the second video immediately after we’ve finished watching one. But can we always remember and understand these videos? When we read a long article patiently, we often pay close attention to the contents (内容). What’s more, texts allow us to use our imagination, while videos don’t.
In a word, videos might change the way people learn about the world and the way they make themselves happy, but texts will never be replaced. Texts are like immortal (不朽的) stars which shine from the past to the future.
36.How does the writer start the passage?
A.By telling a story. B.By giving a suggestion.
C.By asking a question. D.By listing the numbers.
37.According to the writer, what is the best way to learn about the ancient world fully?
A.Writing long texts. B.Reading the texts.
C.Watching short videos. D.Making short videos.
38.What may the underlined word “instant” mean?
A.Useful. B.Low. C.High. D.Rapid.
39.Which of the following may the writer agree with?
A.Videos make our lives better. B.Texts might disappear someday.
C.Texts will keep shining like stars. D.Videos will replace texts in the future.
40.What can be the best title of the passage?
A.Will texts be replaced? B.Why are videos so popular?
C.Do you watch videos every day? D.How do you spend your free time?

It may be hard to believe, but the American Revolution—the war that freed the American states from British control—began over a cup of tea. Tea was not the only thing that caused the war, of course, but it played a very big part.
The British people’s love of tea is well-known. When the British won control over much of North America in the early 1700s, they brought their tea-drinking habits with them. Tea quickly became the continent’s most popular drink. As tea could not be grown locally, just as in Britain, it was shipped into the country—mostly from India.
In the early 1700s, the Britain government made a special deal with the East India Company, as an English trading company. They agreed that no other company was allowed to bring tea to Britain or any country controlled by Britain, including America. It was a great deal for the East India Company, since it meant that the company could decide whatever price it wanted for its products. And it always decided on a high price!
In North America, the local people did not like having to pay such high prices. Instead of overpaying for tea from the British, they turned to Dutch traders, who secretly brought tea to the country that was just as good and much less expensive. Although this broke the law, the American people didn’t care. They got the same cup of tea at a much lower price.
The East India Company, however, didn’t like this at all. By the 1760s, they were losing millions of pounds each year to Dutch traders—a huge amount of money in a time when $60 a year was considered a good income. Instead of reducing their prices to compete with the Dutch, the company asked the British government for help and the government agreed.
In 1767, the British introduced new law that increased the prices of all goods which were brought into America. These laws helped make the East India Company even richer and forced local people to pay much more for everything. The American leaders asked the British government not to do so, but the British refused to listen. These unfair laws increased Americans’ anger about British rule and the rest, as they say, is history.
31.In the early 1700s where did most tea drunk in America come from?
A.China. B.India. C.America. D.Britain.
32.The underlined word “it” in Paragraph 3 refers to ________.
A.the tea maker B.the American government
C.the British government D.the East India Company
33.Why did many Americans begin to buy tea from the Dutch traders?
A.The tea was much cheaper. B.The tea was a lot healthier.
C.They could buy it more easily. D.They didn’t want to support the British.
34.What did the East India Company do to stop losing money?
A.It reduced the price of its tea. B.It improved the taste of its tea.
C.It introduced a new kind of tea. D.It asked the British government for help.
35.What is the passage mainly about?
A.Tea trade in eighteenth-century America.
B.The relationship between America and Britain.
C.A reason for the start of the American Revolutionary War.
D.The introduction of British tea-drinking habits into America.

C
Suppose that you have some free time to kill. There is an enjoyable short video to watch and an interesting 1000-word article to read. You can only choose one of the two. Which one will you pick?
Perhaps the video will be your choice. Over the past few years, watching videos online has become a part of many people’s daily lives. Fewer and fewer people would like to read long articles patiently. Some people fear that video will one day replace (代替) text. But in my opinion, this isn’t going to happen.
Videos can in fact help us learn new information more quickly. However, can they help us fully learn about the ancient world? Many historical stories were recorded using only texts. So, the best way is to read these texts.
Short videos are a type of “instant culture”. They come into and leave our minds like flying cars. Oftentimes, we can’t help but look for the second video immediately after we’ve finished watching one. But can we always remember and understand these videos? When we read a long article patiently, we often pay close attention to the contents (内容). What’s more, texts allow us to use our imagination, while videos don’t.
In a word, videos might change the way people learn about the world and the way they make themselves happy, but texts will never be replaced. Texts are like immortal (不朽的) stars which shine from the past to the future.
36.How does the writer start the passage?
A.By telling a story. B.By giving a suggestion.
C.By asking a question. D.By listing the numbers.
37.According to the writer, what is the best way to learn about the ancient world fully?
A.Writing long texts. B.Reading the texts.
C.Watching short videos. D.Making short videos.
38.What may the underlined word “instant” mean?
A.Useful. B.Low. C.High. D.Rapid.
39.Which of the following may the writer agree with?
A.Videos make our lives better. B.Texts might disappear someday.
C.Texts will keep shining like stars. D.Videos will replace texts in the future.
40.What can be the best title of the passage?
A.Will texts be replaced? B.Why are videos so popular?
C.Do you watch videos every day? D.How do you spend your free time?
【答案】36.C 37.B 38.D 39.C 40.A
【导语】本文是一篇议论文。 作者认为文本阅读不会被短视频所取代,一是因为文本阅读可以让我们更好地了解有关古代的事物,二是因为文本阅读会让我们更关注阅读的内容,除此之外,文本阅读还会激发我们的想象力。
36.推理判断题。根据“Suppose that you have some free time to kill..Which one will you pick?”可知本文是通过一个问题引出本文话题。故选C。
37.细节理解题。根据“Many historical stories were recorded using only texts. So, the best way is to read these texts.”可知全面了解古代世界最好的方式是读文本。故选B。
38.词义猜测题。根据“They come into and leave our minds like flying cars.”可知短视频就像飞驰的汽车,快速地进入我们的生活,又快速地离开,由此可见,这是一种“速食文化”,故此处划线部分和选项D“快速”意义相近。故选D。
39.推理判断题。根据“Texts are like immortal (不朽的) stars which shine from the past to the future.”可知文本就像不朽的星星,从过去照耀到未来,所以文本会继续像星星一样闪耀。故选C。
40.最佳标题题。本文主要介绍了作者认为文本阅读不会被短视频所取代,所以“文本会被取代吗”可以作为本文最佳标题。故选A。
