Ⅰ.阅读理解(共8小题;每小题2.5分,满分20分)
阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
A
Amy Jandrisevits knows the value of a good doll.“Dolls have a power we don’t completely understand,” she told The Today Show.It’s a conclusion she came to while working as a pediatric oncology(儿科肿瘤学) social worker using dolls to help her young clients adapt to their changing medical situations.Many of the kids saw themselves in those dolls.But for the kids missing a limb or who had lost their hair,there were none they could relate to.
So,seven years ago,when a friend revealed that her child was suffering from appearance anxiety caused by a rare disease,Jandrisevits,now 49,knew what might help the youth through this potentially challenging period.“It’s hard to tell a kid,‘You are perfect the way you are’,and to build self-confidence that way,but never offer them anything that looks like them,” she says.
Jandrisevits went about changing that.She crafted a doll by hand—using fabric,stitching,and markers—that resembled her friend’s child and sent it off.After the friend posted a photo online of the happy child and doll,another woman asked Jandrisevits to make a doll that looked like her baby,who was missing a leg.
Word spread,and soon Jandrisevits was making dolls for children with scars,birthmarks,facial deformities(畸形),tracheotomies—in short a doll that looked like them.She quit her job and started a nonprofit,A Doll Like Me.
Working out of her home in Milwaukee,from photos sent by parents or caregivers,it takes Jandrisevits roughly seven hours to craft each doll.A GoFundMe page helps her offset costs and allows her to donate her services.She hasn’t charged for a doll since she began her nonprofit.
In all,she’s made more than 400 dolls.The waiting list is long,but Jandrisevits is unbowed.As she explains on her GoFundMe page,“Every kid,regardless of gender,ethnicity,age,medical issue,or body type,should look into the sweet face of a doll and see their own.”

Chinese traditional painting and dance are two vital parts of the art world.But what about when they meet each other?
This year,a dance drama titled Poetic Dance: The Journey of a Legendary Landscape Painting was staged on CCTV’s Spring Festival Gala and went viral.
According to CCTV,this poetic dance program was inspired by the 900-year-old Chinese painting A Panorama of Rivers and Mountains.Created by Song Dynasty(960-1279) painter Wang Ximeng at about 18,the painting is “stunning in its sweeping scale,rich coloration and the expressive details”,reported CCTV.It shows a Chinese blue-green landscape: “mountains and groupings of infinite rise and fall between cloudless sky and rippling water”.
To show the Chinese traditional aesthetics(美学) of the painting,the dance performance conceptualized dancers as the mountains.They each had a different hairstyle,which resembled a mountain rock.The clothes they wore were shades of green and blue,which is also a poetic interpretation of the mountains and rivers.
When the dancers swayed elegantly,audiences seemed to be looking at the moving mountains and rivers.
“It brings me a pure experience of beauty.It is not only a drama but also an ‘exhibition’.Vast mountains and rivers are coming to life!” Internet user Mo Weisha wrote in a review.“More than a thousand years later,green mountains and rivers still impress people as they did long ago.”
Some people even decided to watch the dance again when it was staged in the theaters later.
In fact,in recent years,more and more modern shows highlight Chinese traditional culture and have received warm welcome.As for why,it is due to people’s great love for traditional culture.
“The younger generations have grown up with a more open mindset.They embrace Chinese culture and are proud of it,” Yao Wei,director of Henan TV station’s Innovation Center,told China Daily.
语篇解读 本文是说明文,文章以《只此青绿》为例阐述了近年来中国传统文化节目越来越受欢迎的现象,因为人们对传统文化更加乐于接受,年轻人为中国传统文化感到自豪。
5.What can we learn about the painting A Panorama of Rivers and Mountains from the text?
A.It was painted in several bright colors.
B.It shows natural beauty vividly.
C.It was created over a thousand years ago.

6.What is paragraph 4 mainly about?
A.The unique Chinese beauty shown in the drama.
B.Innovative design to dress dancers like mountains.
C.What the drama and the painting have in common.
D.How the drama presents the elements from the painting.
答案 D
解析 段落大意题。通读文章第四段可知,第四段主要从演员的发型、服饰角度讲解了舞剧是如何呈现画中的元素的。故选D。

阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
On Dec.20,Mello called his mother on FaceTime,which he does every day after school.That afternoon,Mello broke down in tears the moment his mother,Anita James,answered the phone.“Mello,what happened?” James asked her son on the phone.
“I’m getting tired of them bullying(欺凌) my friend about his shoes.It’s making me so upset,” he answered in a serious voice,explaining that his classmates made fun of his friend Melvin for having worn-out(穿破的) muddy sneakers.
James listened to Mello’s narration with a thoughtful expression.Then,Mello earnestly asked,“Can we go buy him some shoes?”
James told her son they would talk about it when she got home from work.During their in-person conversation a few hours later,James found her son still upset.At last,Mello decided to buy his friend a fresh pair of sneakers to get rid of bullies and remind him that he has people who care about him.
“Can I use my pocket money,or you can take something away that I would get for Christmas?” Mello asked his mother.
The sincere request from her son hit James for many reasons,including that when she was growing up,her older brother used to buy her sneakers when her parents couldn’t afford them.Now,in their adult lives,James buys her brother a pair of sneakers for his birthday every year to show her appreciation.James was so touched by her little boy’s genuine care for his friend and she knew how it would matter to the poor kid,Melvin.
That evening,they went to a sneaker store and bought a pair of black-and-white Nike shoes for Melvin.Mello used savings from his pocket money to pay for the $85 shoes.This way,Mello thought,“nobody could laugh at him or say anything about him anymore.” Mello was so excited to give Melvin the gift that he woke up nearly an hour early for school.
注意:续写词数应为150左右。
Before class began,Mello handed his friend the orange Nike box in private.
Bryant Brown,the school’s social studies teacher,found the shoe box on Melvin’s desk.
参考范文
Before class began,Mello handed his friend the orange Nike box in private.When told it was a gift for him,Melvin was totally shocked and immensely touched at such a nice gesture from his friend.Mello beamed with a warm smile on his face,as if he had anticipated Melvin’s reaction,and whispered in his friend’s ear that there would be no more teasing from other kids about his worn-out shoes.After weeks of getting constant smirks about his sneakers,Melvin couldn’t wait to put on his new shoes.Looking at the shiny Nike shoes on Melvin’s feet,Mello was overjoyed.
Bryant Brown,the school’s social studies teacher,found the shoe box on Melvin’s desk.He asked Melvin for the backstory.It brought the teacher to tears.After asking for the two boys’ consent,he decided to share the story on Facebook,hoping it might inspire others.The post got thousands of likes,shares and comments.Brown was stunned by the response.He is now planning to launch an anti-bullying campaign in the coming weeks.Hundreds of students,parents and teachers have signed up for the activity with the hope that there’s no place in the world for bullies and Mello’s helping hand always lives on.
