We’re excited to have Karen, a talented writer. here to share her writing journey with us. Hello, Karen. It’s a pleasure to meet you. When and how did you get into writing? Karen: I’ve been writing for as long as I can remember, starting with letters and my diary. I wrote down my feelings almost every day. But I really became hooked when I became a reporter for my school newspaper when I was in the third grade. I also remember writing a play called The Silver Locket in the sixth grade. Host: What kind of training do you need to be a writer? Karen: Many writers say the best way to improve writing is by living. I totally agree with that. I think good writers also need hard work, creative talent, and a little luck too. Writers are natural readers. Reading what others have written helps you not only enjoy good writing but also understand different writing styles. If you’re serious about being a writer, it’s also important when you have the chance, to take writing courses. Host: What gives you ideas? Karen: I get ideas all the time when I’m driving to the store, in a meeting, watching TV, cooking, or even relaxing on the beach! Host: Do you write all at once or in fragments (片段)? Karen: It all depends on what I’m writing. If I’m writing a nonfiction article that requires a lot of research and interviews, I do the research first, taking notes along the way. I organize my notes and then I start writing. I pay more attention to content than sentence structure, how it reads, or how long the piece is running. Making sure it reads well, catches the readers’ attention, makes sense (言之有理), and is the right length will come later. I’ll solve that when I begin editing and rewriting. And, believe me, editing and rewriting are worth taking time! Host: ▲ ? Karen: I have several books in mind, both fiction and nonfiction, but the first one—a children’s picture book— is ready for publishing. I even entered it into a competition and it won a prize. Host: … 32. When did Karen really become “hooked” in writing? A. When she started writing letters. B. When she kept diaries every day. C. When she finished a play in the 6th grade. D. When she wrote for the school newspaper. 33. According to Karen, what is the best training to be a writer? A. Reading a lot of books. B. Taking writing courses. C. Getting life experiences. D. Writing as much as possible. 34. What can we learn from the interview? A. Karen puts great value on editing and rewriting. B. Karen has interviews first when writing nonfictions. C. Karen pays more attention to language than to content. D. Karen gets ideas from other writers’ works all the time. 35. Based on Karen’s answer, which question may be put in“ ▲ ”? A. What are your plans for future writing? B. Why did you enter the writing competition? C. What made you write a children’s picture book? D. How do you feel about publishing your first book? 【答案】32.

We also have lots of information to stay updated on our journey. But in history, travel was different. Let’s explore ancient China. What was travelling like back then? Travel in control Before the Song dynasty, the country strictly controlled the movement of common people. Commerce (商业) began to appear in the Song dynasty, and the growing wealth led to the rise of an early tourism industry. However, this golden period ended. Zhu Yuanzhang, the ruler of the Ming dynasty, renewed (重新开始) strict travel control. Movement was still common if it was managed by the country. The government would send soldiers and craftsmen wherever they were needed, and everything was planned before. After the Ming dynasty, the country allowed more freedom for people to travel on their own. Danger on the road Ancient travel was very dangerous. People worried about the many dangers they could face on their journeys. For example, distances (距离) didn’t often stay the same over time—“Ten li” in one place might be different from “ten li” in another. This could be a big problem. Failing to understand the distance could leave travellers alone in faraway areas with no hotels around. This was very dangerous for single travellers. Travel guides also warned readers about dangerous roads and areas to avoid. Theft and robbery were also common on the road. In short, it was very dangerous out there. Ancient Travelogues(旅行日志) We’re not short of travel records from ancient people. School textbooks often include famous articles like “Eight Records of Excursions in Yongzhou (《永州八记》),”“An Account of the Old Drunkard’s Pavilion (《醉翁亭记》),” and “Night Tour of Chengtian Temple (《记承天寺夜游》).” All of them come from travels. Writers paid more attention to sights and feelings instead of detailed travel travelogues. However, these records show their personal interests, giving us a clear look into ancient daily life. Much like how we take holiday photos today, ancient people added drawings to their travelogues. In the Ming dynasty, Wang Shizhen, an officer, travelled from Taicang to Beijing. He brought a painter who made drawings for each stop. They created 30 to40 paintings that are still kept today. These drawings give us valuable knowledge. 36. When did the early tourism industry start? A. Before the Song Dynasty. B. In the Song Dynasty. C. In the Ming Dynasty. D. After the Ming Dynasty. 37. What result did Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang’s rules lead to? A. Making travel plans was more popular. B. Tourism industry was further developed. C. People were allowed to travel by themselves. D. Movement was strictly managed by the country. 38. What did travel guides advise ancient travellers to do? A. To fight with thieves and robbers. B. To carry maps with clear pictures. C. To avoid travelling with strangers. D. To stay away from dangerous roads. 39. How did ancient travellers record their journeys? A. By hiring writers to record travels. B. By telling others sights and feelings. C. By writing travelogues and drawing. D. By collecting drawings for each stop. 40. What’s the best title for the passage? A. Travel in ancient China B. Works of ancient travel C. Changes of travel styles D. Challenges of ancient travel 【答案】36. B 37. D 38. D 39. C 40. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了古代中国的旅行情况。 【36题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Commerce (商业) began to appear in the Song dynasty, and the growing wealth led to the rise of an early tourism industry.”可知，商业在宋朝开始兴起，财富的不断积累催生了早期的旅游业。故早期的旅游业是在宋朝兴起。故选B。 【37题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Zhu Yuanzhang, the ruler of the Ming dynasty, renewed (重新开始) strict travel control.”可知，明朝统治者朱元璋重新实施了严格的出行管控。故朱元璋的规定导致了人员流动由国家严格管理。故选D。 【38题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Travel guides also warned readers about dangerous roads and areas to avoid.”可知，旅行指南也会提醒读者注意危险路段和应避开的区域。故旅行指南建议古代旅行者远离危险路段。故选D。 【39题详解】 细节理解题。根据“We’re not short of travel records from ancient people.”可知，我们并不缺少古人的旅行记录。又根据“Much like how we take holiday photos today, ancient people added drawings to their travelogues.”可知，就像我们如今会拍摄度假照片一样，古人会在旅行日志中添加绘画。故古代旅行者通过写旅行日志和画画来记录旅程。故选C。 【40题详解】 最佳标题题。根据“Let’s explore ancient China. What was travelling like back then?”可知，文章主要讲述了古代中国的旅行情况。故故选A。 非选择题(共50分) 五、填空(共15 小题； 每小题1分，满分15分) A) 请根据括号中所给的汉语写出单词，使句子意思完整正确，并将答案填写在答题卡标号为61—65 的相应横线上。 41. —Will the Sports News ________ (电视报道) the football match this weekend? —I’m sure it will.

We’re excited to have Karen, a talented writer. here to share her writing journey with us. Hello, Karen. It’s a pleasure to meet you. When and how did you get into writing? Karen: I’ve been writing for as long as I can remember, starting with letters and my diary. I wrote down my feelings almost every day. But I really became hooked when I became a reporter for my school newspaper when I was in the third grade. I also remember writing a play called The Silver Locket in the sixth grade. Host: What kind of training do you need to be a writer? Karen: Many writers say the best way to improve writing is by living. I totally agree with that. I think good writers also need hard work, creative talent, and a little luck too. Writers are natural readers. Reading what others have written helps you not only enjoy good writing but also understand different writing styles. If you’re serious about being a writer, it’s also important when you have the chance, to take writing courses. Host: What gives you ideas? Karen: I get ideas all the time when I’m driving to the store, in a meeting, watching TV, cooking, or even relaxing on the beach! Host: Do you write all at once or in fragments (片段)? Karen: It all depends on what I’m writing. If I’m writing a nonfiction article that requires a lot of research and interviews, I do the research first, taking notes along the way. I organize my notes and then I start writing. I pay more attention to content than sentence structure, how it reads, or how long the piece is running. Making sure it reads well, catches the readers’ attention, makes sense (言之有理), and is the right length will come later. I’ll solve that when I begin editing and rewriting.

D Modern travellers enjoy safe, comfortable transportation from high-speed trains to planes. We also have lots of information to stay updated on our journey. But in history, travel was different. Let’s explore ancient China. What was travelling like back then? Travel in control Before the Song dynasty, the country strictly controlled the movement of common people. Commerce (商业) began to appear in the Song dynasty, and the growing wealth led to the rise of an early tourism industry. However, this golden period ended. Zhu Yuanzhang, the ruler of the Ming dynasty, renewed (重新开始) strict travel control. Movement was still common if it was managed by the country. The government would send soldiers and craftsmen wherever they were needed, and everything was planned before. After the Ming dynasty, the country allowed more freedom for people to travel on their own. Danger on the road Ancient travel was very dangerous. People worried about the many dangers they could face on their journeys. For example, distances (距离) didn’t often stay the same over time—“Ten li” in one place might be different from “ten li” in another. This could be a big problem. Failing to understand the distance could leave travellers alone in faraway areas with no hotels around. This was very dangerous for single travellers. Travel guides also warned readers about dangerous roads and areas to avoid. Theft and robbery were also common on the road. In short it was very dangerous out there. Ancient Travelogues(旅行日志) We’re not short of travel records from ancient people. School textbooks often include famous articles like “Eight Records of Excursions in Yongzhou (《永州八记》),”“An Account of the Old Drunkard’s Pavilion (《醉翁亭记》),” and “Night Tour of Chengtian Temple (《记承天寺夜游》).” All of them come from travels. Writers paid more attention to sights and feelings instead of detailed travel travelogues. However, these records show their personal interests, giving us a clear look into ancient daily life. Much like how we take holiday photos today, ancient people added drawings to their travelogues. In the Ming dynasty, Wang Shizhen, an officer, travelled from Taicang to Beijing. He brought a painter who made drawings for each stop. They created 30 to40 paintings that are still kept today. These drawings give us valuable knowledge. 36. When did the early tourism industry start? A. Before the Song Dynasty. B. In the Song Dynasty. C. In the Ming Dynasty. D. After the Ming Dynasty. 37. What result did Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang’s rules lead to? A. Making travel plans was more popular. B. Tourism industry was further developed. C. People were allowed to travel by themselves. D. Movement was strictly managed by the country. 38. What did travel guides advise ancient travellers to do? A. To fight with thieves and robbers. B. To carry maps with clear pictures. C. To avoid travelling with strangers. D. To stay away from dangerous roads. 39. How did ancient travellers record their journeys? A. By hiring writers to record travels. B. By telling others sights and feelings. C. By writing travelogues and drawing. D. By collecting drawings for each stop. 40. What’s the best title for the passage? A. Travel in ancient China B. Works of ancient travel C. Changes of travel styles D.
