If Confucius (孔子) were still alive today and could celebrate his birthday with a big cake, there would be 2575 candles. He would need a strong wind to help him blow them out.
Many people in China will remember Confucius on his special day, but few people in the United States will know his birthday. It’s nothing personal. Most Americans don’t even remember the birthdays of their own national heroes.
But this doesn’t mean that Americans don’t care about Confucius. In many ways, he has become a bridge that foreigners must cross if they want to reach a deeper understanding of China.
In the past twenty years, the Chinese studies programs have become very popular in Western universities. And more recently, the Chinese government (政府) has set up Confucius Institutes (孔子学院) in more than 80 countries. These schools teach both Chinese language and culture. The main courses of Chinese culture are usually Chinese art, history and philosophy (哲学). Students in the United States, at the same time, are working hard to learn Chinese. So they will be ready for life in a world where China will be as powerful as the United States.
Today China attracts (吸引) the West more than ever, and it will need more teachers to introduce Confucius and Chinese culture to the West.
7. What is the purpose (目的) of Paragraph 1?
A. To catch the reader’s eyes.
B. To tell some stories about Confucius.
C. To show the importance of Confucius.
8. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A. Americans often celebrate Confucius’s birthday.
B. Most Americans remember their heroes’ birthdays.
C. Americans see Confucius as a bridge to understand China.

①Chinese Art ②Chinese Geography ③Chinese History ④Chinese Philosophy
A. ①②③ B. ①②④ C. ①③④
10. In which part of the newspaper will you probably read the passage?

【答案】7. A 8. C 9. C 10. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道,主要介绍了孔子和中国文化对西方国家的影响。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。第一段通过对孔子生日的生动描述来引人入胜,目的在于吸引读者的注意,故选A。

They met each other in a quiet library on a cold afternoon and they found that they could work together. Though Steager worked with these nanoparticles, he never thought that they might be useful in this way. “It was an amazing moment.” he says.
“We hope to see that the new way to clean teeth could help some ill people who can’t brush teeth easily.” Koo says.
The scientists have tested the robotic tooth-cleaner in their own lab again and again. But it isn’t yet ready for people to use. The robotic tooth-cleaner will need to practice more comfortably and safely inside a person’s mouth. Koo and Steager are working hard on it.

Sanjiangyuan National Park lies in the heart of Qinghai-Tibet Plateau (青藏高原) in southern Qinghai province. It covers 190007 square kilometers. It is the first national park in China. Thousands of local people are protecting it.
Tongde is a 44-year-old man. He first joined a park patrol (巡逻) in 2013. He said, “I felt happy and excited to work here to protect nature. This feeling has never gone away, and I still keep it to this day.”
Another Tibetan custodian, Paltse, is 28 years old. He has learnt a lot from his work. “I was a little afraid when I saw wild animals in the first few years. I stay calm now, because I’m sure that the animals have no interest in harming (伤害) me. Humans and animals are getting closer,” he said.
Tsering Gyal, 49, comes from Madoi county. He also works as a custodian. He thinks that local people now live in a better environment than before. “When I was a child, I didn’t know the importance of the environment. But as I grew up, I slowly noticed the environment became more and more beautiful.” he said. “I think that Ngoring Lake looks bigger now, and the water is so clean that you can scoop (捧起) it up with your hands and drink it.”

If Confucius (孔子) were still alive today and could celebrate his birthday with a big cake, there would be 2575 candles. He would need a strong wind to help him blow them out.
Many people in China will remember Confucius on his special day, but few people in the United States will know his birthday. It’s nothing personal. Most Americans don’t even remember the birthdays of their own national heroes.
But this doesn’t mean that Americans don’t care about Confucius. In many ways, he has become a bridge that foreigners must cross if they want to reach a deeper understanding of China.
In the past twenty years, the Chinese studies programs have become very popular in Western universities. And more recently, the Chinese government (政府) has set up Confucius Institutes (孔子学院) in more than 80 countries. These schools teach both Chinese language and culture. The main courses of Chinese culture are usually Chinese art, history and philosophy (哲学). Students in the United States, at the same time, are working hard to learn Chinese. So they will be ready for life in a world where China will be as powerful as the United States.
Today China attracts (吸引) the West more than ever, and it will need more teachers to introduce Confucius and Chinese culture to the West.
7. What is the purpose (目的) of Paragraph 1?
A. To catch the reader’s eyes.
B. To tell some stories about Confucius.
C. To show the importance of Confucius.
8. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A. Americans often celebrate Confucius’s birthday.
B. Most Americans remember their heroes’ birthdays.
C. Americans see Confucius as a bridge to understand China.
9. What are the main courses of Chinese culture in Confucius Institutes?
①Chinese Art ②Chinese Geography ③Chinese History ④Chinese Philosophy
A. ①②③ B. ①②④ C. ①③④
10. In which part of the newspaper will you probably read the passage?
A. Science. B. Sports. C. Culture.

阅读下面短文,根据短文内容回答问题。
It will be fantastic if you don’t have to use your hands to brush your teeth. Someday, a robotic tooth-cleaner might do it for you!
It is a kind of tooth-cleaner with a lot of nanoparticles (纳米粒子). The nanoparticles are very small ball balls. They can move in a person’s mouth. Also, you can change them into any shape you want. The nanoparticles can also kill bacteria (细菌) just like toothpaste or mouthwash.
At the very beginning Koo and Steager study in different fields. Steager builds very small robots. Koo tries to find new ways to work out the problems about teeth. Both of them were using the same nanoparticles but they didn’t know each other at first. One day, a friend learned about both of their ideas and he told them they should meet. They met each other in a quiet library on a cold afternoon and they found that they could work together. Though Steager worked with these nanoparticles, he never thought that they might be useful in this way. “It was an amazing moment.” he says.
“We hope to see that the new way to clean teeth could help some ill people who can’t brush teeth easily.” Koo says.
The scientists have tested the robotic tooth-cleaner in their own lab again and again. But it isn’t yet ready for people to use. The robotic tooth-cleaner will need to practice more comfortably and safely inside a person’s mouth. Koo and Steager are working hard on it. If their hard work can make the tooth-cleaner better, a lot of sick people can brush teeth easily and happily with the help of the tooth-cleaner.
36. What is a robotic tooth-cleaner?
___________________________________
37. Who made Koo and Steager know each other?
