Nezha's earliest roots can be traced back to ancient Indian Buddhist mythology. In Indian mythology, there is a deity named Nezha (Natakuvarā). He is the third son of Vaisravana, a Buddhist protector god, who later evolved into Li Tota in Chinese culture. Powerful and brave, Nezha often accompanied Vaisravana in defeating demons and evil spirits. As Buddhism spread to China, this character was introduced and gradually became more Chinese in style. Over centuries, Nezha's image and stories became increasingly rich and uniquely Chinese through deep integration with local culture. In the Daoist mythology system, he transformed into a powerful protective deity. Riding on wind and fire wheels and wielding magical weapons like the Qiankun Ring and Huntian Silk, Nezha emerged as a young hero with extraordinary powers. Classic mythical novels during the Ming period like “Fengshen Yanyi (Investiture of the Gods)” and “Xi You Ji (Journey to the West)” played a crucial role in shaping Nezha's legendary status. “Investiture of the Gods” reveals his dramatic origin: he is the third son of General Li Jing from Chentang, born after an astonishing three-and-a-half-year pregnancy. Nezha's rebellious spirit and bravery shine through stories, such as his bold confrontation with the Dragon King's son, Ao Bing, and his dramatic act of pulling out dragon tendons. In "Journey to the West," Nezha battles the Monkey King, Sun Wukong, when he helps Li Tota try to conquer Flower-Fruit Mountain, further highlighting his martial skills and great powers. Today, the mythological figure of Nezha continues to inspire various forms of art. Memorable adaptations have emerged in film and television, including early animated movie "Nezha Conquers the Dragon King," the popular 2019 film " Ne Zha: I Am The Destiny," and the recent hit "Nezha 2," all showcasing the captivating charm of Nezha's story. Beyond the screen, Nezha's iconic image appears in paintings, sculptures, and toys, solidifying his status as a timeless symbol of Chinese cultural creativity and imagination. 1. According to the text, which tradition can Nezha's earliest mythological roots be traced back to? A. Daoist mythology. B. Indian Buddhist mythology. C. Ancient Chinese folklore. D. Tibetan Bon religion. 2. In which classic Chinese novel does Nezha battle Sun Wukong (the Monkey King)? A. Investiture of the Gods (Fengshen Yanyi). B. Water Margin. C. Romance of the Three Kingdoms. D. Journey to the West (Xi You Ji). 3. What does the underlined word “rebellious” in paragraph 4 probably mean? A. obedient. B. disobedient. C. gentle. D. weak. 4. What is the main purpose of writing this text? A. To compare Nezha’s portrayal in Indian and Chinese mythology. B. To analyze the symbolic meaning of Nezha’s weapons. C. To introduce Nezha’s mythological origins and cultural evolution. D. To promote modern adaptations of Nezha in films. Passage 2武当功夫 （2023·北京东城·二模）American Jake Pinnick comes from a small town called Kewanee. Pinnick said when he told friends and family he wanted to go to the Wudang Kungfu Academy in China, the response was typical. "It's not a usual thing to say, but it is pretty normal for kids to want to get out of a place like Kewanee. Most kids say something like they want to move to Hollywood and become an actor, " said the 30-year-old. “When I first thought about it, it was daydreaming for myself, too.” Once he found himself at the academy, Pinnick said fitting in was softened by other foreigners who were in the area and a part of the school. Getting used to the way of life was surprisingly easy given the peaceful nature to it. Pinnick said after a while, he found himself more at home in Wudang than he ever felt back home in Kewanee. Locals were more than welcoming and willing to engage. “The culture shock wasn't that bad. Surprisingly, I find I have more of that going back to America now... learning the language did take some time, but everyone around the school was familiar with foreigners, so we had a lot of fun speaking broken English and Chinese back and forth at the start.” After he settled into a routine, Pinnick set about engaging himself in Chinese culture, including Kungfu training. He was also attracted by the philosophical tradition most well-known for the idea of living in harmony with the universe. Pinnick said he had to go home after the first six months and immediately wanted to return to China, feeling as if it had now become his home more than America, and he had begun a process of rewriting himself as a person overseas. His life now goes around training, teaching and studying. He graduated from the academy in 2014 and still helps teach there. Pinnick said the goal is to one day return to America and teach what he has learned. Looking back on his amazing journey, Pinnick said he has grown by leaps and bounds from a small-town American kid who had a daydream he could not shake. 1．What did Pinnick's family think of his idea of learning Kungfu? A．Unrealistic. B．Creative. C．Challenging. D．Disappointing. 2．What mainly helped Pinnick get used to the life in China? A．His fluent Chinese. B．The friendly local culture. C．His peaceful nature.

Passage 3中医 （24-25高二上·江苏连云港·期中）Five Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) Practices to Try Traditional Chinese Medicine has been an essential part of Chinese culture for thousands of years. If you’re new to TCM, here are five popular practices you might want to explore during your stay in China. Acupuncture Acupuncture is one of the most well-known TCM practices. It involves pushing fine needles into specific points on the body to stimulate energy flow. You likely won’t feel anything, although it may ache when the correct depth is reached. Cupping Cupping therapy (疗法) involves placing heated cups on the skin to create an effect. It’s commonly used to relieve muscle tension and remove harmful substances from your body. Cupping therapy can cause small, painless bruises (瘀血) that usually fade in a few days, which are normal. Gua sha Gua sha or scraping therapy is a technique that involves gently scraping the skin with a flat, smooth-edged tool to stimulate the flow of blood and lymph (淋巴). Distinctive red or purple spots appear on the skin surface due to scraping. Tuina, or Pressure Point Massage Tuina is a form of Chinese massage that involves various techniques such as pressing and stretching but remember that it’s not a gentle or relaxing massage. You may feel some discomfort during or after a session. Moxibustion Moxibustion involves burning dried mugwort (艾草) near the skin to warm and stimulate specific points on the body, improving circulation and boosting the immune system. It may be worth a try, but remember that it’s better to be done by a skilled professional. 1．If someone feels tense in his muscle, which practice can he turn to? A．Acupuncture. B．Cupping. C．Gua sha. D．Moxibustion. 2．How is Tuina different from other practices? A．It is painless. B．It stimulates energy flow. C．It needs various skills. D．It employs different tools. 3．What do the listed practices have in common? A．They all cause discomfort. B．They have the same function. C．They stimulate specific points on the body. D．They can improve people’s health condition. Passage 4针灸 （24-25高三上·黑龙江·开学考试）When I finally decided to try acupuncture (针灸), I only had a friend’s experience for back pain and anxiety as a reference. With minimal information, I was excited to experience it for the first time. I visited New York’s newly opened acupuncture studio, whose simple but modern decoration immediately put me at ease. After checking in. I was asked about my goals for the session. I told my acupuncturist I wanted to ease my anxiety and relieve the pressure in my lower back. Before starting, she examined my tongue, noting that it wasn’t as red us expected someone with anxiety and suggested I might have digestive issues. This initial assessment helped her determine where to place the needles. In traditional Chinese medicine, tongue diagnosis (诊断) is crucial as it reveals aspects of one’s health, guiding the acupuncturist on treatment points. I lay face down on a heated table. The acupuncturist began inserting hair-thin needles into my ankles, gradually working her way up to my head. Each needle caused slight pressure and pain, but not too much. The needles targeted areas to relieve tension and stress by directing blood flow. Once all the needles were in place, I lay still for about half an hour. During this time, I enjoyed a sound therapy session through noise-canceling headphones. Within 15 minutes, I felt incredibly calm, focusing on my breath and the soothing (舒缓的) sounds. After the session, the acupuncturist gently removed the needles and gave a quick massage (按摩) to release any remaining tension. The sense of calm lasted for about three days. It wasn’t until my anxiety returned that I realized how effective the session had been. The sharp contrast made me aware of how much anxiety I was managing daily. My first acupuncture session was a success, and I plan to return soon. While acupuncture may not be a cure-all, it forced me to step away from stressors and focus on my health. I highly recommend acupuncture for those who deal with daily anxiety. It’s a great alternative for managing stress and can also be used as preventative care. 1．What did the tongue diagnosis suggest? A．The author had considerable anxiety. B．The author might have poor digestion. C．The author needed treatment at once. D．The author would suffer back pressure. 2．How did acupuncture affect the author? A．It taught the author how to manage stress. B．It inspired the author to focus on the past. C．It improved the author’s state of mind. D．It left the author focused instantly. 3．How would the author summarize his initial experience with acupuncture? A．It was fruitful. B．It was painful. C．It was beyond expectations. D．It was far from satisfactory. 4．What is the author’s purpose of writing the text? A．To provide a scientific analysis of acupuncture. B．To criticize modern medical practices. C．To explain the history of acupuncture. D．To share a personal experience with acupuncture. Passage 5粮食画 （2024届·上海徐汇区·一模） Han Guorui, a folk artist specializing in making Dongming grain pictures, is generally busy in autumn as he needs to collect materials for his work. This year, he has been even busier, as he has attended fairs to demonstrate his skills and promote grain art. The grain pictures, which take their name from Dongming county in Heze, Shandong province, are a traditional folk craft with a history of more than 200 years. The practice was listed as a provincial intangible cultural heritage(非物质文化遗产) in 2016 by the Shandong Provincial Department of Culture and Tourism. After being treated to prevent decay and insect infestation, grains, grass and vegetable seeds are glued together to form a picture. “We use the different shapes and colors of grains and seeds, which are all collected from the field,” says Han. Born in Dongming, a county along the banks of the Yellow River, he attended a regional fair in mid-October. His pictures attracted many children who asked questions, such as, “will these seeds sprout”, and “can these grains be eaten?” Han answered the children’s questions while showing them how to use grains and seeds to make a picture. “Only now, when food is sufficient, can people make a picture with surplus grain,” he says. To make pictures that more people like, Han works in the style of Chinese ink and Western oil paintings. Now his grain pictures are not only sold in cities across China, but also to overseas markets, including some European countries, South Korea and Japan, he says. “Grain pictures have become a cultural product that is helping to enrich farmers living on the Yellow River plain,” says Han. The Yellow River, the country’s second longest, is considered the cradle of Chinese civilization. For thousands of years, the people living along its banks have nurtured rich and vibrant cultures that have endured to this day. To give people the opportunity to familiarize themselves with its rich culture and plentiful products, Shandong province has organized fairs named after the river throughout the year, with some events held in communities to involve more people. At the fairs, intangible cultural heritage items, handicrafts, local delicacies, performances, and agricultural products are available. At one fair in a community in Jinan, the capital city of Shandong, in late October, more than 10 types of handicrafts were on show, including gourd-carving, paper-cutting, textiles and hemp rope weaving. “The fair builds a bridge between intangible cultural heritage producers and consumers. Using items that are embodied with traditional culture is a good way to pass on culture,” says Sun Xicai, deputy director of Jinan Folk Literature and Art Association. At the fair, 60-something Yu Shaoqing, who was selling animal-shaped textile products, attracted a lot of buyers. “Many young people show an interest in my products. They buy them to decorate their rooms and cars,” says Yu. Yu, who worked in embroidery design before retiring, designs her products, which take the shape of animals like tigers, rabbits and ducks. Currently, she is working on a dragon design for next year to welcome the Year of the Dragon. 1．What do the grains undergo before being used in the artwork? A．Grains are carefully selected, painted in various colors and air-dried. B．Grains and seeds are bonded following certain preservative treatment. C．Grains and seeds are well preserved so that they will spout. D．Grains are carved and then assembled into a picture. 2．People make grain pictures ________. A．due to advancements in technology B．because of nurtured rich and vibrant cultures along the Yellow River C．in situations where there is a sufficient and excessive supply of grains D．as a result of government’s financial supports for local artists 3．What types of products and cultural elements were available at the fairs organized by Shandong province throughout the year? A．Electronics and fashion items; performances showcasing modern technology B．Handicrafts, local delicacies, performances, and items embodied with traditional culture C．Industrial machinery and tools; demonstrations of manufacturing processes D．Luxury goods and designer fashion; fashion shows featuring international designers Passage6书法 （23-24高三下·重庆·阶段练习）At the start of my first lesson in Chinese calligraphy, my teacher told me to write my name. After I put it down, he said, plainly: “Now I will teach you how to make it beautiful.” I felt my breath catch. Growing up in Singapore, I had an uneasy relationship with my Chinese name. My parents are ethnically Chinese but they didn’t speak Mandarin. Unfamiliar with Chinese characters, they used fortune tellers to decide my name based on the ideal number of strokes (笔画) for each character, which was calculated for the best fortune. Chinese names can be truly poetic. Not mine. Embarrassingly, the characters for my Chinese name mean, roughly, “old,” “barley” and “warm.” My personal and cultural histories were messy knots. When I arrived in America for college at 18, I embraced critical analysis and creative expression. It felt like a way to abandon the strict formalities that defined my early years in Singapore’s high-pressure education system, and with it, perhaps, parts of my identity. Suddenly, I felt the need to present myself in a way that Americans would accept. I put on an American accent and set aside my Chinese name. Ultimately, after 14 years in the States, I decided to learn calligraphy. Why not get back in touch with my heritage? I thought. In calligraphy, the idea is to replicate (复制) the old masters’ techniques, thereby enhancing your own. Every week, my teacher would evaluate my writing. “You need to be braver,” he once observed. “Your challenge is in producing a bold stroke.” For years, I had prided myself on developing an image of integration and confidence despite deep insecurities, but my writing betrayed me. I had been learning calligraphy to try to get in touch with my cultural roots, but what I was really seeking was a return to myself. That first lesson came with the terrific promise that what had been shameful in myself could be made beautiful—and that I could be the one to do that work. I know now that what calligraphy teaches me is not the value of replication but the possibility that I could know myself more fully. 1．What criterion guided the selection of the author’s Chinese name? A．Poetic sound patterns. B．Ideal symbolic images. C．Favorable stroke counts. D．Positive literal meanings. 2．Why did the author adopt an American accent? A．To break with tradition. B．To fit into the community. C．To achieve academic success. D．To facilitate language learning. 3．What have we learned about the author’s experience with calligraphy? A．It revealed her inner self. B．It improved her public image. C．It presented no challenge to her. D．It enhanced her replication skills. 4．What has the author learned from calligraphy? A．Fortune favors the bold. B．Embrace who you truly are. C．Our roots define our identity. D．Planning is good, but doing is better. 阅读七选五 Passage 1烹饪 （22-23高三上·北京·期末）How Culture Affects Cuisine It probably happened to you: You ate this incredible dessert in Turkey, you tried this fantastic dish in Spain, and you brought the recipe back home — just to feel the disappointment that what you cooked at home didn’t pass the taste test. It’s likely that groceries have different qualities in different countries. In the case of the United States and Europe this has very little to do with soil or climate. 1 Consumers in the U.S. have other preferences in groceries than most Europeans. It comes down to culture. Europeans often value quality more than quantity. Of course you will find out-of-season produce on the shelves of grocery stores as well. 2 Europeans especially are willing to give up short-term gain for a much greater long-term result. Take, for example, Italians produce dry-cured ham (干腌火腿) only during the waning moon that follows the full moon and it is practiced to this day. According to old farmer’s lore, the meat could go bad, if it isn’t cured by the moon. 3 However, Americans believe in progress and the benefits of technology. It becomes clear why following tradition doesn’t have to be a strong value. Food for U.S. consumers is produced and shipped across the country. 4 The industrialization of food production results in new breeds of produce. The population growth calls for higher quantities. Farmers and growers are paid for the amount, not for the flavor. 5 European cultures are rather regional, and this means food traditions have remained undamaged in fairly small areas. Within these regions and communities people often shop locally from regional producers. And they shop more frequently than Americans. Europeans often go to the local market daily whereas millions of shoppers in the U.S. purchase one or two weeks’ supply of groceries in one single visit to the big box store. All these consumer choices, based on cultural behaviors, have had a lasting impact on how our food is grown and what it tastes like. A．Geography plays another role here. B．Refrigeration makes it possible to store foods longer. C．However, demand for better quality is greater in their countries. D．This great interest in culinary (烹饪的) tradition is a cultural feature. E．The main reason why produce tastes different here and there is choice. F．Food provides the world with one of the only ways to universally communicate. G．Often our culinary preferences have an effect on the vacation destinations we choose. Passage2 书法 （23-24高二下·云南玉溪·期末）Living heritages are cultural elements that are considered to be an important part of the cultural heritage of our nation and that are still present and transmitted today. 1 It is an artistic practice of writing Chinese characters, often with a brush and ink on Xuan paper. The evolution of Chinese calligraphy began alongside the earliest Chinese characters discovered to date — inscriptions on oracle bones (甲骨文), from the Shang Dynasty (c. 16th century — 11th century BC) in Anyang, Henan province. Over time, calligraphy gradually took shape as a form of art rather than a mere means of record. Five major styles of script were born. They were running, cursive, official, seal and regular. 2 The type of brush, density of ink and texture of paper can all change the output. From brush inclination and direction to speed of writing, every twist and turn of the wrist is also calculated. Structure of individual characters and special layout as a whole determine its quality. Moreover, the emotions of the writer are directly reflected on calligraphy. Calligraphy is a fine art. Lan Ting Xu is one of the most celebrated masterpieces. 3 Its elegance and expressive brushwork gave it both historical and cultural significance in Chinese literature. Calligraphy is also within reach. Like the Spring Festival couplets that decorate doors of everyday folks, calligraphy has always been the sign of appreciation for the Chinese. Where there is Chinese language, there is calligraphy. 4 Chinese calligraphy is still highly valued today for its more than just writing. 5 It was written on the Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity by UNESCO in2009. We strongly believe Chinese calligraphy will be passed from generation to generation. A．It is a living heritage. B．Calligraphy is a demanding art. C．Calligraphy can be learned easily. D．Chinese calligraphy is one of them. E．It is one of the most famous and favorite art works. F．And where there is Chinese calligraphy, there is beauty. G．It was created by Wang Xizhi during the Eastern Jin Dynasty. 阅读表达 Passage 1教育或文化的目的 （24-25高三上·北京·阶段练习）阅读下面短文，根据题目要求回答问题。 Good Taste of Knowledge The aim of education or culture is merely the development of good taste in knowledge and good form in conduct. The cultured man or the ideal educated man is not necessarily one who is well-read or learned, but one who likes and dislikes the right things. To know what to love and what to hate is to have taste in knowledge. Nothing is more annoying than to meet a person at a party whose mind is crammed (填塞) full with historical dates and figures and who is extremely well-posted on current international affairs, but whose attitudes or points of view are all wrong. I have met such people. They do have great academic knowledge, but no good judgment or taste. Being knowledgeable is a mere matter of the cramming of facts or information while having good taste is a matter of artistic judgment. In speaking of a scholar, the Chinese generally distinguish between their scholarship (学术成就), conduct and taste. An educated man, therefore, is one who has the right loves and hatreds. This we call taste, and with taste comes charm. Now, to have taste requires a capacity for thinking things through to the bottom, the independence of judgment, and the unwillingness to be affected by any form of power. When a man is wrong, he is wrong, and there is no need for one to be impressed by a great name or by the number of books that he has read and we haven’t. Taste, then, is closely associated with courage, as the Chinese always associated dan (“胆”) with shi (“识”). And courage or independence of judgment, as we know, is such a rare virtue among humankind. We see this intellectual courage or independence during the childhood of all thinkers and writers who in later life amount to anything. Such a person refuses to be impressed by a philosophic vogue or a fashionable theory, even though it is backed by the greatest name. This is taste in knowledge. No doubt such intellectual courage or independence of judgment requires a certain childish, naive confidence in oneself, but this self is the only thing that one can cling to, and the moment a student gives up his right of personal judgment, he is in for accepting all the dishonest and insincere of life. 1．According to the author, what is the goal of education? 2．How is having good taste in knowledge different from being knowledgeable? 3．Please decide which part is false in the following statement, then underline it and explain why. ▶Intellectual courage or independence of judgment builds confidence in oneself. 4．Please name one person with the qualities of dan and shi in Chinese history and explain what about this person makes you think so.

[1] YOU ARE thrust into the heat of battle—a clash so violent it has “disturbed heaven and Earth” and “alarmed both demons and gods”. Playing as Sun Wukong, aka the Monkey King, you wield the jin gu bang (a fabled staff weighing eight tonnes) and face down Erlang, a three-eyed warrior-god. You must be wily, not to mention nimble: Erlang’s axe can cleave entire mountains in two. (And you thought your day job was stressful.) [2] “Journey to the West” has been adapted many times: it is the most famous novel in Chinese literature and among the country’s most successful cultural exports. But “Black Myth: Wukong”, released on August 20th, is special. The video game is the first blockbuster release from a Chinese studio. In industry lingo, “Black Myth” is a “AAA” game—a label that denotes big budgets and high production values. [3] China is a country of gamers. By 2027 there will be more than 700m players there, and the market will be worth $57bn—up from $45.5bn in 2022—according to Niko Partners, a market-research firm. Many Chinese have bemoaned their country’s inability to produce a video game as thrilling as “Grand Theft Auto” or “World of Warcraft” (which originated in Scotland and America respectively). They are hoping “Black Myth” marks the arrival of a new player in the AAA arena. [4] Why has China been so late to log on? One reason is that the country has been focused on winning the mobile game war. China made four of the ten highest-grossing mobile games of 2023, including the top entry, “Honour of Kings”. Mobile games “monetise much faster”, explains one game producer in China, which counts against designers who want to spend time and money on something more expansive. [5] Nor did it help that gamers did not have the right hardware. From 2000 to 2014 China banned imports of PlayStations and Xboxes, citing concerns for youngsters’ mental health. After the ban was lifted, Chinese studios lacked the expertise to make games for those consoles; it has taken a long time to catch up. China’s game technology is “backwards”, says a developer at a major Chinese gaming firm. “Black Myth” was made with a 3D graphics creation tool called Unreal Engine from an American company, Epic Games. [6] Perhaps the biggest reason for the lag is that Chinese gamers are not in the habit of paying to play. Copyright protection is often scant and software piracy rampant. That has made making elaborate games financially unviable. China is richer now, but with the rise of mobile games—which are typically free-to-play and make their money from selling in-game benefits—the habit has stuck. Some Chinese netizens were nonplussed when the pricing for “Black Myth” was announced at 268 yuan ($38). [7] GameScience, the maker of “Black Myth”, based in Hangzhou, is hoping to reboot that attitude. Feng Ji, its boss, abides by the motto “Move oneself first, then find alignment with the market.” GameScience studied the best titles and historical material to create a game world that would feel true to “Journey to the West”. [8] The process took six years, but the determination has paid off. In the day after its launch, “Black Myth” enjoyed 2.2m concurrent players on Steam, a gaming platform—the second-highest figure of any game on record. Most of those players were from China, but it has proved popular abroad, too. In the week after its release, it has been the top-selling game on Steam in America, Germany and Japan. “Black Myth” has earned positive reviews on the platform from 96% of Chinese players and 93% of English-speaking ones. [9] With “Black Myth” the Monkey King has reaffirmed his reign over Chinese content. The game has already been promoted as a source of nationalist pride. Xinhua says “Black Myth” has succeeded in “telling China’s story with world-class quality”. A spokesperson for China’s foreign ministry, delighted at a positive news story about China, has argued the game’s approval overseas “reflects the appeal of Chinese culture”. [10] Some analysts believe that China’s gaming industry will not give up its preference for mobile even if “Black Myth” becomes the stuff of legend. But others are more optimistic. The game’s success proves the viability of blockbuster games in China, they say, and encourages other developers to think big. GameScience has accrued the experience to make subsequent projects easier. Mr Feng asserts that “There will be more Chinese games that can vie with those overseas.” That will come as good news to those who like to monkey around on gaming consoles. 【译文欣赏】 《黑神话：悟空》是中国首部爆款电子游戏 还会有更多吗? 你被卷入了一场激烈的战斗中——这场战斗如此猛烈，以至于“惊动了天地”，“吓坏了妖魔鬼怪”。扮演孙悟空（又称猴王）的你手持传说中的金箍棒（重达八吨），与三眼战神二郎神展开对决。你必须机智敏捷，因为二郎神的战斧可以将整座山一分为二（而你可能觉得你的日常工作已经很紧张了）。 《西游记》已经被改编过很多次：它是中国文学中最著名的小说之一，也是中国最成功的文化出口产品之一。但于8月20日发布的《黑神话：悟空》却与众不同。这款电子游戏是中国工作室推出的首部重磅作品。在业内术语中，《黑神话》是一款“AAA”游戏——这是一个表示大预算和高制作水准的标签。 中国是一个游戏大国，到2027年，玩家数量将超过7亿，市场价值将达到570亿美元，高于2022年的455亿美元——根据市场研究公司Niko Partners的数据。许多中国人都为他们的国家无法制作出像《侠盗猎车手》或《魔兽世界》（分别起源于苏格兰和美国）这样令人兴奋的游戏而感到惋惜。他们希望《黑神话》标志着中国在AAA游戏领域的新玩家的到来。 为什么中国如此落后才上线？其中一个原因是，中国一直专注于赢得移动游戏之战。中国制作了2023年全球收入最高的十款游戏中的四款，其中包括榜首的《王者荣耀》。一位中国游戏制作人表示，“移动游戏‘变现速度更快’”，这不利于那些想要在更宏大的项目上投入时间和金钱的设计师。 此外，玩家没有合适的硬件设备也无助于游戏行业的发展。从2000年到2014年，中国以保护青少年心理健康为由禁止进口PlayStation和Xbox游戏机。禁令解除后，中国工作室缺乏为这些游戏机制作游戏的技术；这花了很长时间才赶上。“中国的游戏技术是‘落后的’，”一家大型中国游戏公司的开发者说。《黑神话》使用了美国Epic Games公司开发的名为Unreal Engine的3D图形制作工具。 也许最大的原因在于中国玩家习惯于不花钱玩游戏。版权保护往往不足，软件盗版现象严重。这使得制作复杂的大型游戏在经济上不可行。中国现在更富有了，但随着移动游戏的兴起——这类游戏通常是免费玩的，通过出售游戏中的福利来赚钱——这种习惯已经根深蒂固。当《黑神话》的定价公布为268元（38美元）时，一些中国网民感到惊讶。 《黑神话》的制作方是杭州的GameScience，该公司希望改变这种态度。其老板冯吉信奉“先感动自己，再与市场达成一致”的格言。GameScience研究了最好的游戏和历史资料，以创建一个能够让玩家感受到《西游记》真实世界的游戏。 这一过程耗时6年，但努力得到了回报。在发布后的第一天，《黑神话》在游戏平台Steam上拥有220万名同时在线玩家——这是有史以来任何一款游戏的最高纪录之一。其中大多数玩家来自中国，但它在国外也很受欢迎。在发布后的第一周内，《黑神话：悟空》在美国、德国和日本的Steam平台上成为最畅销的游戏。这款游戏在96%的中国玩家和93%的英语母语玩家中获得了积极的评价。 凭借《黑神话：悟空》，美猴王再次巩固了在中国内容领域的地位。这款游戏已经被宣传为民族自豪感的源泉。官方新闻服务机构新华社称，《黑神话：悟空》“以世界级品质成功讲述了中国的故事”。中国外交部的一位发言人对关于中国的正面新闻故事感到高兴，并认为这款游戏在海外的认可“反映了中国文化的吸引力”。 一些分析师认为，即使《黑神话：悟空》成为传奇之作，中国游戏行业也不会放弃对移动游戏的偏好。但其他人则更为乐观。他们表示，这款游戏的成功证明了中国爆款游戏的可行性，并鼓励其他开发者大胆思考。GameScience积累了经验，使后续项目更加容易。冯先生坚信，“将会有更多中国游戏能够与海外游戏相媲美。”这对于喜欢在游戏机上玩耍的人来说无疑是个好消息。 【词汇积累】 1.thrust v.推挤；戳；插入 n.要点，要旨，中心点；猛推；刺；驱动力 2.clash v.&n.打架，发生冲突，争辩；（两种意见、声明或品质）有分歧；激烈竞争；（颜色或风格）不协调；（时间上）相冲突；（使）碰撞作响 3.demon n.恶魔，魔鬼；技法纯熟者；淘气鬼；颓废心理 4.fabled adj.（尤指因经历丰富而）闻名的；传奇式的 5.warrior n.（尤指旧时的）武士，勇士 6.wily adj.（人）狡猾的，诡计多端的 7.nimble adj.（行动）敏捷的，灵活的；（头脑）机敏的 8.axe n.斧子 9.cleave v.劈开；（使）裂开 10.blockbuster n.（尤指因内容精彩而）非常成功的书（或影片） 11.lingo n.外国语言；行话，术语 12.bemoan v.抱怨；悲叹 13.arena n.（体育比赛或表演用的）场地；活动场所；竞技舞台 14.monetize v.转化为货币；从…赚钱 15.lag v.缓慢移动；滞后；（为保温而）覆盖；使入狱，逮捕 n.（两件事之间的）间隔，延迟；囚犯，犯人 16.scant adj.少量的，不足的；接近，差不多 17.rampant adj.（不好的事情）猖獗的，泛滥的；（纹章上所绘的动物）跃立的 18.nonplussed adj.惊慌的；不知所措的 19.concurrent adj.并发的，同时发生的；并存的 20.accrue v.积累；（逐渐）增加，增多 ( 1 )原创精品资源学科网独家享有版权，侵权必究！ 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 热点04 中国元素&传统文化（四大题型） 近年来，高考英语尤其注重对中国传统文化的考查，所以，提前积累这方面的知识是十分必要的。只有大量的输入才能有更好地输出。所以，考生一定要积累与中国传统文化相关的范文及必备词汇，为大家冲刺高考英语高分助力。高考主要考查学生对文化习俗的了解以及相关词汇的表达，包括：（1）对中国的传统文化、社会风俗、文化习俗和社交礼仪的介绍。（2）不同民族或不同国家之间在这方面的相同和不同之处进行比较。（3）外国友人访问中国时在衣、食、住、行方面应该注意的事项给出建议等。 （建议用时：60分钟） 阅读理解 Passage 1哪吒 Nezha is a classic character from ancient Chinese mythology. Nezha's earliest roots can be traced back to ancient Indian Buddhist mythology. In Indian mythology, there is a deity named Nezha (Natakuvarā). He is the third son of Vaisravana, a Buddhist protector god, who later evolved into Li Tota in Chinese culture. Powerful and brave, Nezha often accompanied Vaisravana in defeating demons and evil spirits. As Buddhism spread to China, this character was introduced and gradually became more Chinese in style. Over centuries, Nezha's image and stories became increasingly rich and uniquely Chinese through deep integration with local culture. In the Daoist mythology system, he transformed into a powerful protective deity. Riding on wind and fire wheels and wielding magical weapons like the Qiankun Ring and Huntian Silk, Nezha emerged as a young hero with extraordinary powers. Classic mythical novels during the Ming period like “Fengshen Yanyi (Investiture of the Gods)” and “Xi You Ji (Journey to the West)” played a crucial role in shaping Nezha's legendary status. “Investiture of the Gods” reveals his dramatic origin: he is the third son of General Li Jing from Chentang, born after an astonishing three-and-a-half-year pregnancy. Nezha's rebellious spirit and bravery shine through stories, such as his bold confrontation with the Dragon King's son, Ao Bing, and his dramatic act of pulling out dragon tendons. In "Journey to the West," Nezha battles the Monkey King, Sun Wukong, when he helps Li Tota try to conquer Flower-Fruit Mountain, further highlighting his martial skills and great powers. Today, the mythological figure of Nezha continues to inspire various forms of art. Memorable adaptations have emerged in film and television, including early animated movie "Nezha Conquers the Dragon King," the popular 2019 film " Ne Zha: I Am The Destiny," and the recent hit "Nezha 2," all showcasing the captivating charm of Nezha's story. Beyond the screen, Nezha's iconic image appears in paintings, sculptures, and toys, solidifying his status as a timeless symbol of Chinese cultural creativity and imagination. 1. According to the text, which tradition can Nezha's earliest mythological roots be traced back to? A. Daoist mythology. B. Indian Buddhist mythology. C. Ancient Chinese folklore. D. Tibetan Bon religion. 2. In which classic Chinese novel does Nezha battle Sun Wukong (the Monkey King)? A. Investiture of the Gods (Fengshen Yanyi). B. Water Margin. C. Romance of the Three Kingdoms. D. Journey to the West (Xi You Ji). 3. What does the underlined word “rebellious” in paragraph 4 probably mean? A. obedient. B. disobedient. C. gentle. D. weak. 4. What is the main purpose of writing this text? A. To compare Nezha’s portrayal in Indian and Chinese mythology. B. To analyze the symbolic meaning of Nezha’s weapons. C. To introduce Nezha’s mythological origins and cultural evolution. D. To promote modern adaptations of Nezha in films. 【答案】1.B2.D3.B4.C 【导读】这是一篇说明文，全文围绕哪吒的神话起源（印度佛教）、本土化演变（道教形象、明清小说）及现代艺术影响展开。 1. B。细节理解题。根据原文第一段，“Nezha's earliest roots can be traced back to ancient Indian Buddhist mythology.”，正确答案为B选项“印度佛教神话”。其他选项如道教神话（A）和中国民间传说（C）是后来融入的本土化元素，而藏传苯教（D）未被提及。 2. D。推理判断题。原文提到《西游记》中，哪吒曾与孙悟空交战，协助李靖攻打花果山，因此正确答案为D选项《西游记》。A选项《封神演义》主要描述哪吒与龙王之子敖丙的冲突，B、C选项未涉及哪吒故事。 3. B。猜测词义题。正确答案是 B，从哪吒与敖丙对抗等情节可以看出他具有叛逆、不顺从的精神，所以“rebellious”意思是叛逆的。 4. C。主旨大意题。全文围绕哪吒的神话起源（印度佛教）、本土化演变（道教形象、明清小说）及现代艺术影响展开，核心目的是介绍其背景与文化发展，故C选项正确。A、B选项仅涉及局部细节，D选项虽提到影视改编，但只是结尾部分内容，非全文主旨。 【全文翻译】 哪吒是中国古代神话传说中的经典人物 哪吒最早的原型可以追溯到古印度佛教神话。在印度神话里有一位名叫“那咤俱伐罗”的神，是毗沙门天王（佛教的护法神，在汉化过程中演变为托塔李天王）的第三子。那咤俱伐罗法力高强，英勇善战，常随毗沙门天王降妖伏魔。随着佛教传入中国，这个形象也一同进入中国，并逐渐被汉化。 经过长期的发展和中国本土文化的融合、改造，哪吒的形象和故事越发丰富且具有中国特色。在道教神话体系中，哪吒成为了重要的护法神。他脚踏风火轮、手持乾坤圈、混天绫等法宝，是一位神通广大的少年英雄。 时至今日，哪吒这个神话形象为各类艺术形式带来了无尽灵感。早期的动画电影《哪吒闹海》、明代神魔小说《封神演义》和《西游记》对哪吒形象的最终确立起到了关键作用。 《封神演义》中详细描写了哪吒的身世，他是陈塘关总兵李靖的第三子，母亲怀胎三年零六个月后生下他。后因打死东海龙宫三太子敖丙、抽龙筋等一系列故事，展现出他的叛逆与勇敢。 在《西游记》里，哪吒随托塔李天王征讨花果山时，与孙悟空展开大战，进一步凸显了他的武艺高强和神通广大。 2019年热映的《哪吒之魔童降世》，以及这个春节火爆的《哪吒2：魔童闹海》，都展现了哪吒故事的强大魅力；在绘画、雕塑、玩具等领域，哪吒的形象也屡见不鲜，成为中国文化艺术中一个经典的符号。 Passage 2武当功夫 （2023·北京东城·二模）American Jake Pinnick comes from a small town called Kewanee. Pinnick said when he told friends and family he wanted to go to the Wudang Kungfu Academy in China, the response was typical. "It's not a usual thing to say, but it is pretty normal for kids to want to get out of a place like Kewanee. Most kids say something like they want to move to Hollywood and become an actor, " said the 30-year-old. “When I first thought about it, it was daydreaming for myself, too.” Once he found himself at the academy, Pinnick said fitting in was softened by other foreigners who were in the area and a part of the school. Getting used to the way of life was surprisingly easy given the peaceful nature to it. Pinnick said after a while, he found himself more at home in Wudang than he ever felt back home in Kewanee. Locals were more than welcoming and willing to engage. “The culture shock wasn't that bad. Surprisingly, I find I have more of that going back to America now... learning the language did take some time, but everyone around the school was familiar with foreigners, so we had a lot of fun speaking broken English and Chinese back and forth at the start.” After he settled into a routine, Pinnick set about engaging himself in Chinese culture, including Kungfu training. He was also attracted by the philosophical tradition most well-known for the idea of living in harmony with the universe. Pinnick said he had to go home after the first six months and immediately wanted to return to China, feeling as if it had now become his home more than America, and he had begun a process of rewriting himself as a person overseas. His life now goes around training, teaching and studying. He graduated from the academy in 2014 and still helps teach there. Pinnick said the goal is to one day return to America and teach what he has learned. Looking back on his amazing journey, Pinnick said he has grown by leaps and bounds from a small-town American kid who had a daydream he could not shake. 1．What did Pinnick's family think of his idea of learning Kungfu? A．Unrealistic. B．Creative. C．Challenging. D．Disappointing. 2．What mainly helped Pinnick get used to the life in China? A．His fluent Chinese. B．The friendly local culture. C．His peaceful nature. D．Other foreign teachers there. 3．What did Pinnick gain from his experience in China? A．A career choice. B．A large fortune. C．A Kungfu certificate. D．A good reputation. 【答案】1．A 2．B 3．A 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了一个来自名叫基瓦尼的小镇的美国人杰克·平尼克，不远万里来到中国的武当功夫学院学习，经过自己的努力，克服语言和文化方面的差异，2014年顺利毕业并在那里教书的故事。 1．细节理解题。根据第二段“ "It's not a usual thing to say, but it is pretty normal for kids to want to get out of a place like Kewanee. Most kids say something like they want to move to Hollywood and become an actor, " said the 30-year-old.” “When I first thought about it, it was daydreaming for myself, too.”（这位30岁的女孩说：“这不是通常说的话，但孩子们想离开基瓦尼这样的地方是很正常的。大多数孩子说他们想搬到好莱坞，成为一名演员。”“当我第一次想到它时，我自己也在做白日梦。”）可知平尼克的家人认为他学习功夫的想法是不现实的。故选A项。 2．细节理解题。根据第三段“Pinnick said after a while, he found himself more at home in Wudang than he ever felt back home in Kewanee. Locals were more than welcoming and willing to engage. ”（平尼克说，过了一会儿，他发现自己在武当的家比在科瓦尼的家更自在。当地人非常欢迎并愿意参与。）可知友好的当地文化主要帮助平尼克适应了中国的生活。故选B项。 3．推理判断题。根据最后一段“Looking back on his amazing journey, Pinnick said he has grown by leaps and bounds from a small-town American kid who had a daydream he could not shake.”（回顾他那令人惊叹的旅程，平尼克说，他已经从一个小镇上的美国孩子成长为一个有着无法撼动的白日梦的人。）可知平尼克从他在中国的经历中获得了职业选择。故选A项。 Passage 3中医 （24-25高二上·江苏连云港·期中）Five Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) Practices to Try Traditional Chinese Medicine has been an essential part of Chinese culture for thousands of years. If you’re new to TCM, here are five popular practices you might want to explore during your stay in China. Acupuncture Acupuncture is one of the most well-known TCM practices. It involves pushing fine needles into specific points on the body to stimulate energy flow. You likely won’t feel anything, although it may ache when the correct depth is reached. Cupping Cupping therapy (疗法) involves placing heated cups on the skin to create an effect. It’s commonly used to relieve muscle tension and remove harmful substances from your body. Cupping therapy can cause small, painless bruises (瘀血) that usually fade in a few days, which are normal. Gua sha Gua sha or scraping therapy is a technique that involves gently scraping the skin with a flat, smooth-edged tool to stimulate the flow of blood and lymph (淋巴). Distinctive red or purple spots appear on the skin surface due to scraping. Tuina, or Pressure Point Massage Tuina is a form of Chinese massage that involves various techniques such as pressing and stretching but remember that it’s not a gentle or relaxing massage. You may feel some discomfort during or after a session. Moxibustion Moxibustion involves burning dried mugwort (艾草) near the skin to warm and stimulate specific points on the body, improving circulation and boosting the immune system. It may be worth a try, but remember that it’s better to be done by a skilled professional. 1．If someone feels tense in his muscle, which practice can he turn to? A．Acupuncture. B．Cupping. C．Gua sha. D．Moxibustion. 2．How is Tuina different from other practices? A．It is painless. B．It stimulates energy flow. C．It needs various skills. D．It employs different tools. 3．What do the listed practices have in common? A．They all cause discomfort. B．They have the same function. C．They stimulate specific points on the body. D．They can improve people’s health condition. 【答案】1．B 2．C 3．D 【导语】本文是一篇应用文，主要介绍了中国传统医学（TCM）中的五种流行疗法，包括针灸、拔罐、刮痧、推拿和艾灸。 1．细节理解题。根据Cupping部分的“Cupping therapy involves placing heated cups on the skin to create an effect. It’s commonly used to relieve muscle tension and remove harmful substances from your body.(拔罐疗法涉及将加热的杯子放在皮肤上以产生效果。它通常用于缓解肌肉紧张和从体内去除有害物质。)”可知，拔罐疗法常用于缓解肌肉紧张，因此如果有人感到肌肉紧张，他可以选择拔罐疗法。故选B。 2．细节理解题。根据Tuina, or Pressure Point Massage部分的“Tuina is a form of Chinese massage that involves various techniques such as pressing and stretching but remember that it’s not a gentle or relaxing massage.(推拿是一种中国式的按摩，涉及各种技术，如按压和拉伸，但要记住，它并不是一种温和或放松的按摩。)”可知，推拿与其他疗法不同之处在于它涉及多种技术，需要掌握不同的技能。故选C。 3．细节理解题。根据Acupuncture部分的“It involves pushing fine needles into specific points on the body to stimulate energy flow.(它涉及将细针推入身体的特定穴位，以刺激能量流动。)”、Cupping部分的“It’s commonly used to relieve muscle tension and remove harmful substances from your body.(它通常用于缓解肌肉紧张，并从体内去除有害物质。)”、Gua sha部分的“Gua sha or scraping therapy is a technique that involves gently scraping the skin with a flat, smooth-edged tool to stimulate the flow of blood and lymph (淋巴).(刮痧或刮疗是一种技术，涉及使用扁平、边缘光滑的工具轻轻刮擦皮肤，以刺激血液和淋巴的流动。)”、Tuina, or Pressure Point Massage部分的“Tuina is a form of Chinese massage that involves various techniques such as pressing and stretching but remember that it’s not a gentle or relaxing massage.(推拿是一种中国式的按摩，涉及各种技术，如按压和拉伸，但要记住，它并不是一种温和或放松的按摩。)”和Moxibustion部分的“Moxibustion involves burning dried mugwort (艾草) near the skin to warm and stimulate specific points on the body, improving circulation and boosting the immune system.(艾灸涉及在皮肤附近燃烧干燥的艾草，以温暖和刺激身体的特定穴位，从而改善循环并增强免疫系统。)”可知，它们的共同点是改善人们的健康状况。故选D。 Passage 4针灸 （24-25高三上·黑龙江·开学考试）When I finally decided to try acupuncture (针灸), I only had a friend’s experience for back pain and anxiety as a reference. With minimal information, I was excited to experience it for the first time. I visited New York’s newly opened acupuncture studio, whose simple but modern decoration immediately put me at ease. After checking in. I was asked about my goals for the session. I told my acupuncturist I wanted to ease my anxiety and relieve the pressure in my lower back. Before starting, she examined my tongue, noting that it wasn’t as red us expected someone with anxiety and suggested I might have digestive issues. This initial assessment helped her determine where to place the needles. In traditional Chinese medicine, tongue diagnosis (诊断) is crucial as it reveals aspects of one’s health, guiding the acupuncturist on treatment points. I lay face down on a heated table. The acupuncturist began inserting hair-thin needles into my ankles, gradually working her way up to my head. Each needle caused slight pressure and pain, but not too much. The needles targeted areas to relieve tension and stress by directing blood flow. Once all the needles were in place, I lay still for about half an hour. During this time, I enjoyed a sound therapy session through noise-canceling headphones. Within 15 minutes, I felt incredibly calm, focusing on my breath and the soothing (舒缓的) sounds. After the session, the acupuncturist gently removed the needles and gave a quick massage (按摩) to release any remaining tension. The sense of calm lasted for about three days. It wasn’t until my anxiety returned that I realized how effective the session had been. The sharp contrast made me aware of how much anxiety I was managing daily. My first acupuncture session was a success, and I plan to return soon. While acupuncture may not be a cure-all, it forced me to step away from stressors and focus on my health. I highly recommend acupuncture for those who deal with daily anxiety. It’s a great alternative for managing stress and can also be used as preventative care. 1．What did the tongue diagnosis suggest? A．The author had considerable anxiety. B．The author might have poor digestion. C．The author needed treatment at once. D．The author would suffer back pressure. 2．How did acupuncture affect the author? A．It taught the author how to manage stress. B．It inspired the author to focus on the past. C．It improved the author’s state of mind. D．It left the author focused instantly. 3．How would the author summarize his initial experience with acupuncture? A．It was fruitful. B．It was painful. C．It was beyond expectations. D．It was far from satisfactory. 4．What is the author’s purpose of writing the text? A．To provide a scientific analysis of acupuncture. B．To criticize modern medical practices. C．To explain the history of acupuncture. D．To share a personal experience with acupuncture. 【答案】1．B 2．C 3．A 4．D 【导语】本文是记叙文。详细叙述了作者第一次尝试针灸的经历，从决定尝试针灸、到访针灸工作室、接受针灸治疗到治疗后的感受。 1．细节理解题。根据第三段“Before starting, she examined my tongue, noting that it wasn’t as red us expected someone with anxiety and suggested I might have digestive issues. (在开始之前，她检查了我的舌头，发现它不像我们想象的那样红，并暗示我可能有消化问题。)”可知，舌头的诊断说明了作者可能消化不良。故选B项。 2．细节理解题。根据第四段“The needles targeted areas to relieve tension and stress by directing blood flow. (针头通过引导血液流动来瞄准部位来缓解紧张和压力。)”以及第五段“Within 15 minutes, I felt incredibly calm, focusing on my breath and the soothing (舒缓的) sounds. (在15分钟内，我感到难以置信的平静，专注于我的呼吸和舒缓的声音。)”和第六段“After the session, the acupuncturist gently removed the needles and gave a quick massage (按摩) to release any remaining tension. The sense of calm lasted for about three days. (疗程结束后，针灸师轻轻地取下针，并快速按摩以释放剩余的紧张感。这种平静的感觉持续了大约三天。)”可知，针灸改善了作者的精神状态，故选C。 3．细节理解题。根据第六段“After the session, the acupuncturist gently removed the needles and gave a quick massage (按摩) to release any remaining tension. The sense of calm lasted for about three days. It wasn’t until my anxiety returned that I realized how effective the session had been. The sharp contrast made me aware of how much anxiety I was managing daily. (疗程结束后，针灸师轻轻地取下针，并快速按摩以释放剩余的紧张感。这种平静的感觉持续了大约三天。直到我的焦虑又回来了，我才意识到这个疗程是多么有效。这种鲜明的对比让我意识到我每天都在处理多少焦虑。)”以及第七段“My first acupuncture session was a success, and I plan to return soon. (我的第一次针灸治疗很成功，我打算很快再来一次。)”可知，作者的最初的针灸体验是富有成效的。故选A项。 4．推理判断题。根据第一段“When I finally decided to try acupuncture (针灸), I only had a friend’s experience for back pain and anxiety as a reference. With minimal information, I was excited to experience it for the first time. (当我最终决定尝试针灸时，我只有一个朋友治疗背痛和焦虑症的经验作为参考。虽然信息很少，但我很兴奋能第一次体验它。)”以及通读全文可知，作者写这篇文章的目的是分享一个关于针灸的个人经验。故选D项。 Passage 5粮食画 （2024届·上海徐汇区·一模） Han Guorui, a folk artist specializing in making Dongming grain pictures, is generally busy in autumn as he needs to collect materials for his work. This year, he has been even busier, as he has attended fairs to demonstrate his skills and promote grain art. The grain pictures, which take their name from Dongming county in Heze, Shandong province, are a traditional folk craft with a history of more than 200 years. The practice was listed as a provincial intangible cultural heritage(非物质文化遗产) in 2016 by the Shandong Provincial Department of Culture and Tourism. After being treated to prevent decay and insect infestation, grains, grass and vegetable seeds are glued together to form a picture. “We use the different shapes and colors of grains and seeds, which are all collected from the field,” says Han. Born in Dongming, a county along the banks of the Yellow River, he attended a regional fair in mid-October. His pictures attracted many children who asked questions, such as, “will these seeds sprout”, and “can these grains be eaten?” Han answered the children’s questions while showing them how to use grains and seeds to make a picture. “Only now, when food is sufficient, can people make a picture with surplus grain,” he says. To make pictures that more people like, Han works in the style of Chinese ink and Western oil paintings. Now his grain pictures are not only sold in cities across China, but also to overseas markets, including some European countries, South Korea and Japan, he says. “Grain pictures have become a cultural product that is helping to enrich farmers living on the Yellow River plain,” says Han. The Yellow River, the country’s second longest, is considered the cradle of Chinese civilization. For thousands of years, the people living along its banks have nurtured rich and vibrant cultures that have endured to this day. To give people the opportunity to familiarize themselves with its rich culture and plentiful products, Shandong province has organized fairs named after the river throughout the year, with some events held in communities to involve more people. At the fairs, intangible cultural heritage items, handicrafts, local delicacies, performances, and agricultural products are available. At one fair in a community in Jinan, the capital city of Shandong, in late October, more than 10 types of handicrafts were on show, including gourd-carving, paper-cutting, textiles and hemp rope weaving. “The fair builds a bridge between intangible cultural heritage producers and consumers. Using items that are embodied with traditional culture is a good way to pass on culture,” says Sun Xicai, deputy director of Jinan Folk Literature and Art Association. At the fair, 60-something Yu Shaoqing, who was selling animal-shaped textile products, attracted a lot of buyers. “Many young people show an interest in my products. They buy them to decorate their rooms and cars,” says Yu. Yu, who worked in embroidery design before retiring, designs her products, which take the shape of animals like tigers, rabbits and ducks.

After I put it down, he said, plainly: “Now I will teach you how to make it beautiful.” I felt my breath catch. Growing up in Singapore, I had an uneasy relationship with my Chinese name. My parents are ethnically Chinese but they didn’t speak Mandarin. Unfamiliar with Chinese characters, they used fortune tellers to decide my name based on the ideal number of strokes (笔画) for each character, which was calculated for the best fortune. Chinese names can be truly poetic. Not mine. Embarrassingly, the characters for my Chinese name mean, roughly, “old,” “barley” and “warm.” My personal and cultural histories were messy knots. When I arrived in America for college at 18, I embraced critical analysis and creative expression. It felt like a way to abandon the strict formalities that defined my early years in Singapore’s high-pressure education system, and with it, perhaps, parts of my identity. Suddenly, I felt the need to present myself in a way that Americans would accept. I put on an American accent and set aside my Chinese name. Ultimately, after 14 years in the States, I decided to learn calligraphy. Why not get back in touch with my heritage? I thought. In calligraphy, the idea is to replicate (复制) the old masters’ techniques, thereby enhancing your own. Every week, my teacher would evaluate my writing. “You need to be braver,” he once observed. “Your challenge is in producing a bold stroke.” For years, I had prided myself on developing an image of integration and confidence despite deep insecurities, but my writing betrayed me. I had been learning calligraphy to try to get in touch with my cultural roots, but what I was really seeking was a return to myself. That first lesson came with the terrific promise that what had been shameful in myself could be made beautiful—and that I could be the one to do that work. I know now that what calligraphy teaches me is not the value of replication but the possibility that I could know myself more fully. 1．What criterion guided the selection of the author’s Chinese name? A．Poetic sound patterns. B．Ideal symbolic images. C．Favorable stroke counts. D．Positive literal meanings. 2．Why did the author adopt an American accent? A．To break with tradition. B．To fit into the community. C．To achieve academic success. D．To facilitate language learning. 3．What have we learned about the author’s experience with calligraphy? A．It revealed her inner self. B．It improved her public image. C．It presented no challenge to her. D．It enhanced her replication skills. 4．What has the author learned from calligraphy? A．Fortune favors the bold. B．Embrace who you truly are. C．Our roots define our identity. D．Planning is good, but doing is better. 【答案】1．C 2．B 3．A 4．B 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。本文讲述了作者在书法练习的过程中，慢慢找到自我，认识自我，重塑自我概念。 1．细节理解题。根据第二段“Unfamiliar with Chinese characters, they used fortune tellers to decide my name based on the ideal number of strokes (笔画) for each character, which was calculated for the best fortune.(由于不熟悉汉字，他们让算命先生根据每个汉字的理想笔画数来决定我的名字，这是为最好的运气而计算的)”可知，作者的中文名是父母基于笔画的数量，取吉祥福气之意。故选C。 2．细节理解题。根据第三段“Suddenly, I felt the need to present myself in a way that Americans would accept. I put on an American accent and set aside my Chinese name.(突然间，我觉得有必要以一种美国人能接受的方式来展示自己。我带上了美国口音，把我的中国名字放在一边)”可知，作者说美国口音，隐藏自己的中文名，是为了融入美国的社会。故选B。 3．推理判断题。根据第四段“For years, I had prided myself on developing an image of integration and confidence despite deep insecurities, but my writing betrayed me.(多年来，我一直为自己塑造了一种融合和自信的形象而自豪，尽管内心充满了不安全感，但我的写作背叛了我)”和第五段“I had been learning calligraphy to try to get in touch with my cultural roots, but what I was really seeking was a return to myself.(我一直在学习书法，试图与我的文化根源接触，但我真正寻求的是回归自我)”可推知，作者在书法练习中，重新找到了自我，认识自我，重塑自我概念。故选A。 4．推理判断题。根据第五段“I had been learning calligraphy to try to get in touch with my cultural roots，but what I was really seeking was a return to myself.(我一直在学习书法，试图与我的文化根源接触，但我真正寻求的是回归自我)”可推知，作者本来是想通过书法练习找到自己的文化身份，却在这一过程中重新认识了自我，接纳了自我。故选B。 阅读七选五 Passage 1烹饪 （22-23高三上·北京·期末）How Culture Affects Cuisine It probably happened to you: You ate this incredible dessert in Turkey, you tried this fantastic dish in Spain, and you brought the recipe back home — just to feel the disappointment that what you cooked at home didn’t pass the taste test. It’s likely that groceries have different qualities in different countries. In the case of the United States and Europe this has very little to do with soil or climate. 1 Consumers in the U.S. have other preferences in groceries than most Europeans. It comes down to culture. Europeans often value quality more than quantity. Of course you will find out-of-season produce on the shelves of grocery stores as well. 2 Europeans especially are willing to give up short-term gain for a much greater long-term result. Take, for example, Italians produce dry-cured ham (干腌火腿) only during the waning moon that follows the full moon and it is practiced to this day. According to old farmer’s lore, the meat could go bad, if it isn’t cured by the moon. 3 However, Americans believe in progress and the benefits of technology. It becomes clear why following tradition doesn’t have to be a strong value. Food for U.S. consumers is produced and shipped across the country. 4 The industrialization of food production results in new breeds of produce. The population growth calls for higher quantities. Farmers and growers are paid for the amount, not for the flavor. 5 European cultures are rather regional, and this means food traditions have remained undamaged in fairly small areas. Within these regions and communities people often shop locally from regional producers. And they shop more frequently than Americans. Europeans often go to the local market daily whereas millions of shoppers in the U.S. purchase one or two weeks’ supply of groceries in one single visit to the big box store. All these consumer choices, based on cultural behaviors, have had a lasting impact on how our food is grown and what it tastes like. A．Geography plays another role here. B．Refrigeration makes it possible to store foods longer. C．However, demand for better quality is greater in their countries. D．This great interest in culinary (烹饪的) tradition is a cultural feature. E．The main reason why produce tastes different here and there is choice. F．Food provides the world with one of the only ways to universally communicate. G．Often our culinary preferences have an effect on the vacation destinations we choose. 【答案】1．E 2．C 3．D 4．B 5．A 【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了文化是如何影响菜品烹饪的。 1．根据后文“Consumers in the U.S. have other preferences in groceries than most Europeans.(与大多数欧洲人相比，美国消费者对货品有其他偏好)”中的“preferences”可知，美国人和欧洲人的选择不同，即E项“The main reason why produce tastes different here and there is choice.(各地制作出的口味不同的主要原因在于选择)”所表达的含义。故选E。 2．C项“However, demand for better quality is greater in their countries.(然而，他们国家对更好质量的需求更大)”中的“better quality”与前文“Europeans often value quality more than quantity.(欧洲人通常重视质量而不是数量)”中的“quality”呼应。故选C。 3．根据前文“According to old farmer’s lore, the meat could go bad, if it isn’t cured by the moon.(根据这位老农的传说，如果不在月光下腌制，肉可能会变质)”可知，D项“This great interest in culinary (烹饪的) tradition is a cultural feature.(这种对烹饪传统的浓厚兴趣是一种文化特征)”中的“tradition”呼应了“lore”，同时呼应了后文中的“tradition”。故选D。 4．根据后文“The industrialization of food production results in new breeds of produce.(食品生产的工业化激发了新的产物)”可知，B项“Refrigeration makes it possible to store foods longer.(冷藏设备使得食物储存时间变长成为可能)”中的“Refrigeration”就是基于食品生产工业化的新产物。故选B。 5．后文“European cultures are rather regional(欧洲文化是相当地域性的) ”中的“regional”呼应了A项“Geography plays another role here.(地理环境也起着作用)”中的“Geography”，说明地理也是一个影响因素。故选A。 Passage2 书法 （23-24高二下·云南玉溪·期末）Living heritages are cultural elements that are considered to be an important part of the cultural heritage of our nation and that are still present and transmitted today. 1 It is an artistic practice of writing Chinese characters, often with a brush and ink on Xuan paper. The evolution of Chinese calligraphy began alongside the earliest Chinese characters discovered to date — inscriptions on oracle bones (甲骨文), from the Shang Dynasty (c. 16th century — 11th century BC) in Anyang, Henan province. Over time, calligraphy gradually took shape as a form of art rather than a mere means of record. Five major styles of script were born. They were running, cursive, official, seal and regular. 2 The type of brush, density of ink and texture of paper can all change the output. From brush inclination and direction to speed of writing, every twist and turn of the wrist is also calculated. Structure of individual characters and special layout as a whole determine its quality. Moreover, the emotions of the writer are directly reflected on calligraphy. Calligraphy is a fine art. Lan Ting Xu is one of the most celebrated masterpieces. 3 Its elegance and expressive brushwork gave it both historical and cultural significance in Chinese literature. Calligraphy is also within reach. Like the Spring Festival couplets that decorate doors of everyday folks, calligraphy has always been the sign of appreciation for the Chinese. Where there is Chinese language, there is calligraphy. 4 Chinese calligraphy is still highly valued today for its more than just writing. 5 It was written on the Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity by UNESCO in2009. We strongly believe Chinese calligraphy will be passed from generation to generation. A．It is a living heritage. B．Calligraphy is a demanding art. C．Calligraphy can be learned easily. D．Chinese calligraphy is one of them. E．It is one of the most famous and favorite art works. F．And where there is Chinese calligraphy, there is beauty. G．It was created by Wang Xizhi during the Eastern Jin Dynasty. 【答案】1．D 2．B 3．G 4．F 5．A 【导语】本文是说明文。文章阐述了中国书法作为活态遗产的重要地位。 1．上文提到“Living heritages are cultural elements that are considered to be an important part of the cultural heritage of our nation and that are still present and transmitted today.(活态遗产是我们国家文化遗产的重要组成部分，至今仍然存在并传承。) ”活态遗产至今仍然存在并传承，D选项“中国书法就是其中之一。”中的“them”则指的就是上文中的“Living heritages”，并且D项中的“Chinese calligraphy”直接对应下文“It is an artistic practice of writing Chinese characters, often with a brush and ink on Xuan paper.(这是一种书写汉字的艺术实践，通常用毛笔和墨水在宣纸上书写)”中的“It”，讲明中国书法是一种活态遗产。故选D。 2．下文提到“The type of brush, density of ink and texture of paper can all change the output. From brush inclination and direction to speed of writing, every twist and turn of the wrist is also calculated.(画笔的类型、墨水的密度和纸张的纹理都会改变输出。从画笔的倾斜和方向到书写速度，还计算了手腕的每一次扭曲和转动。)”中国书法对于画笔的类型、墨水的密度和纸张的纹理都有要求，握笔的倾斜和方向、书写速度都会影响字的效果，这些和B选项“书法是一门要求很高的艺术。”中的“demanding”完全能吻合。故选B项。 3．上文提到“Lan Ting Xu is one of the most celebrated masterpieces.(《兰亭序》是最著名的杰作之一。)” 书法著作《兰亭序》，G项“它是王羲之在东晋时期创造的。”进一步解释它是王羲之在东晋时期创造的。G选项中的“It”指的就是上文的“Lan Ting Xu”。故选G。 4．上文提到“Where there is Chinese language, there is calligraphy.(有中文的地方就有书法。)”，有中文的地方就有书法， F项“有中国书法的地方，就有美。”进一步陈述有中国书法的地方就有美，与上文形成连贯的逻辑关系，表达了中国书法的普及性和美学价值。故选F。 5．上文提到“Chinese calligraphy is still highly valued today for its more than just writing.(中国书法今天不仅仅因为书写而受到高度重视。)”中国书法的价值不仅仅在于写，A项“这是一种活态遗产。”中的“a living heritage.”进一步说明了其宝贵，并且和后文的“will be passed from generation to generation” 相吻合。故选A。 阅读表达 Passage 1教育或文化的目的 （24-25高三上·北京·阶段练习）阅读下面短文，根据题目要求回答问题。 Good Taste of Knowledge The aim of education or culture is merely the development of good taste in knowledge and good form in conduct. The cultured man or the ideal educated man is not necessarily one who is well-read or learned, but one who likes and dislikes the right things. To know what to love and what to hate is to have taste in knowledge. Nothing is more annoying than to meet a person at a party whose mind is crammed (填塞) full with historical dates and figures and who is extremely well-posted on current international affairs, but whose attitudes or points of view are all wrong. I have met such people. They do have great academic knowledge, but no good judgment or taste. Being knowledgeable is a mere matter of the cramming of facts or information while having good taste is a matter of artistic judgment. In speaking of a scholar, the Chinese generally distinguish between their scholarship (学术成就), conduct and taste. An educated man, therefore, is one who has the right loves and hatreds. This we call taste, and with taste comes charm. Now, to have taste requires a capacity for thinking things through to the bottom, the independence of judgment, and the unwillingness to be affected by any form of power. When a man is wrong, he is wrong, and there is no need for one to be impressed by a great name or by the number of books that he has read and we haven’t. Taste, then, is closely associated with courage, as the Chinese always associated dan (“胆”) with shi (“识”). And courage or independence of judgment, as we know, is such a rare virtue among humankind. We see this intellectual courage or independence during the childhood of all thinkers and writers who in later life amount to anything. Such a person refuses to be impressed by a philosophic vogue or a fashionable theory, even though it is backed by the greatest name. This is taste in knowledge. No doubt such intellectual courage or independence of judgment requires a certain childish, naive confidence in oneself, but this self is the only thing that one can cling to, and the moment a student gives up his right of personal judgment, he is in for accepting all the dishonest and insincere of life. 1．According to the author, what is the goal of education? 2．How is having good taste in knowledge different from being knowledgeable? 3．Please decide which part is false in the following statement, then underline it and explain why. ▶Intellectual courage or independence of judgment builds confidence in oneself. 4．Please name one person with the qualities of dan and shi in Chinese history and explain what about this person makes you think so. (In about 40 words) 【答案】1．The goal of education is the development of good taste in knowledge and good form in conduct. 2．Being knowledgeable is the acceptance of knowledge while and having good taste in knowledge is the artistic judgment of knowledge. 3．Intellectual courage or independence of judgment builds confidence in oneself. Intellectual courage or independence of judgment requires a certain childish, naive confidence in oneself. The word “builds” is wrong. 4．In Chinese history, a person with the qualities of dan and shi is Sima Qian, a famous historian. His independence in judgment and courage to speak the truth are reflected in his masterpiece “Shiji”, which critically evaluates historical events and figures, showing his good taste in knowledge. 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。作者论述了教育或文化的目的是培养对知识的良好品味和行为的良好形式，一个有教养的人不一定是一个博览群书或学识渊博的人，而是一个喜欢和厌恶正确事物的人。知道爱什么和恨什么就是对知识有品味。 1．考查细节理解。根据第一段中“The aim of education or culture is merely the development of good taste in knowledge and good form in conduct. (教育或文化的目的仅仅是培养良好的知识品味和良好的行为举止)”可知，作者认为，教育或文化的目的仅仅是培养对知识的良好品味和行为的良好形式。故答案为：The goal of education is the development of good taste in knowledge and good form in conduct. 2．考查细节理解。根据第二段中“Being knowledgeable is a mere matter of the cramming of facts or information while having good taste is a matter of artistic judgment. (知识渊博仅仅是对事实或信息的填鸭式学习，而良好的品味则是一种艺术判断)”可知，知识渊博仅仅是对事实或信息的填鸭式教育，而拥有良好的品味则是艺术判断的问题。因此，二者的区别在于知识渊博是填鸭式的接受知识，而好的品味则是对知识的艺术性判断。故答案为：Being knowledgeable is the acceptance of knowledge while and having good taste in knowledge is the artistic judgment of knowledge. 3．考查细节理解。根据文章最后一段“No doubt such intellectual courage or independence of judgment requires a certain childish, naive confidence in oneself, (毫无疑问，这种智力上的勇气或独立判断需要一定的幼稚，单纯的对自己的信心)”可知，这种智力的勇气和独立判断需要信心，而不是建立信心。故答案为：Intellectual courage or independence of judgment builds confidence in oneself. Intellectual courage or independence of judgment requires a certain childish, naive confidence in oneself. The word “builds” is wrong. 4．考查观点态度。根据问题“Please name one person with the qualities of dan and shi in Chinese history and explain what about this person makes you think so.(请说出中国历史上一个具有“胆”和“识”特质的人的名字，并解释为什么你会这样认为)”。例如司马迁，他是一个兼具“胆”和“识”品质的人。他的独立判断和勇于讲真话体现在他的代表作《史记》中，对历史事件和人物进行了批判性的评价，显示了他良好的知识品味。故答案为：In Chinese history, a person with the qualities of dan and shi is Sima Qian, a famous historian. His independence in judgment and courage to speak the truth are reflected in his masterpiece “Shiji”, which critically evaluates historical events and figures, showing his good taste in knowledge. 语法填空 Passage 1《哪吒》续集创下中国动画票房纪录 'Ne Zha' sequel sets box office record for Chinese animation Fantasy feature "Ne Zha 2" has become the top-grossing domestic animated feature of all time in a milestone for Chinese cinema.

[1] YOU ARE thrust into the heat of battle—a clash so violent it has “disturbed heaven and Earth” and “alarmed both demons and gods”. Playing as Sun Wukong, aka the Monkey King, you wield the jin gu bang (a fabled staff weighing eight tonnes) and face down Erlang, a three-eyed warrior-god. You must be wily, not to mention nimble: Erlang’s axe can cleave entire mountains in two. (And you thought your day job was stressful.) [2] “Journey to the West” has been adapted many times: it is the most famous novel in Chinese literature and among the country’s most successful cultural exports. But “Black Myth: Wukong”, released on August 20th, is special. The video game is the first blockbuster release from a Chinese studio. In industry lingo, “Black Myth” is a “AAA” game—a label that denotes big budgets and high production values. [3] China is a country of gamers. By 2027 there will be more than 700m players there, and the market will be worth $57bn—up from $45.5bn in 2022—according to Niko Partners, a market-research firm. Many Chinese have bemoaned their country’s inability to produce a video game as thrilling as “Grand Theft Auto” or “World of Warcraft” (which originated in Scotland and America respectively). They are hoping “Black Myth” marks the arrival of a new player in the AAA arena. [4] Why has China been so late to log on? One reason is that the country has been focused on winning the mobile game war. China made four of the ten highest-grossing mobile games of 2023, including the top entry, “Honour of Kings”. Mobile games “monetise much faster”, explains one game producer in China, which counts against designers who want to spend time and money on something more expansive. [5] Nor did it help that gamers did not have the right hardware. From 2000 to 2014 China banned imports of PlayStations and Xboxes, citing concerns for youngsters’ mental health. After the ban was lifted, Chinese studios lacked the expertise to make games for those consoles; it has taken a long time to catch up. China’s game technology is “backwards”, says a developer at a major Chinese gaming firm. “Black Myth” was made with a 3D graphics creation tool called Unreal Engine from an American company, Epic Games. [6] Perhaps the biggest reason for the lag is that Chinese gamers are not in the habit of paying to play. Copyright protection is often scant and software piracy rampant. That has made making elaborate games financially unviable. China is richer now, but with the rise of mobile games—which are typically free-to-play and make their money from selling in-game benefits—the habit has stuck. Some Chinese netizens were nonplussed when the pricing for “Black Myth” was announced at 268 yuan ($38). [7] GameScience, the maker of “Black Myth”, based in Hangzhou, is hoping to reboot that attitude. Feng Ji, its boss, abides by the motto “Move oneself first, then find alignment with the market.” GameScience studied the best titles and historical material to create a game world that would feel true to “Journey to the West”. [8] The process took six years, but the determination has paid off. In the day after its launch, “Black Myth” enjoyed 2.2m concurrent players on Steam, a gaming platform—the second-highest figure of any game on record. Most of those players were from China, but it has proved popular abroad, too. In the week after its release, it has been the top-selling game on Steam in America, Germany and Japan. “Black Myth” has earned positive reviews on the platform from 96% of Chinese players and 93% of English-speaking ones. [9] With “Black Myth” the Monkey King has reaffirmed his reign over Chinese content. The game has already been promoted as a source of nationalist pride. Xinhua says “Black Myth” has succeeded in “telling China’s story with world-class quality”. A spokesperson for China’s foreign ministry, delighted at a positive news story about China, has argued the game’s approval overseas “reflects the appeal of Chinese culture”. [10] Some analysts believe that China’s gaming industry will not give up its preference for mobile even if “Black Myth” becomes the stuff of legend. But others are more optimistic. The game’s success proves the viability of blockbuster games in China, they say, and encourages other developers to think big. GameScience has accrued the experience to make subsequent projects easier. Mr Feng asserts that “There will be more Chinese games that can vie with those overseas.” That will come as good news to those who like to monkey around on gaming consoles. 【译文欣赏】 《黑神话：悟空》是中国首部爆款电子游戏 还会有更多吗? 你被卷入了一场激烈的战斗中——这场战斗如此猛烈，以至于“惊动了天地”，“吓坏了妖魔鬼怪”。扮演孙悟空（又称猴王）的你手持传说中的金箍棒（重达八吨），与三眼战神二郎神展开对决。你必须机智敏捷，因为二郎神的战斧可以将整座山一分为二（而你可能觉得你的日常工作已经很紧张了）。 《西游记》已经被改编过很多次：它是中国文学中最著名的小说之一，也是中国最成功的文化出口产品之一。但于8月20日发布的《黑神话：悟空》却与众不同。这款电子游戏是中国工作室推出的首部重磅作品。在业内术语中，《黑神话》是一款“AAA”游戏——这是一个表示大预算和高制作水准的标签。 中国是一个游戏大国，到2027年，玩家数量将超过7亿，市场价值将达到570亿美元，高于2022年的455亿美元——根据市场研究公司Niko Partners的数据。许多中国人都为他们的国家无法制作出像《侠盗猎车手》或《魔兽世界》（分别起源于苏格兰和美国）这样令人兴奋的游戏而感到惋惜。他们希望《黑神话》标志着中国在AAA游戏领域的新玩家的到来。 为什么中国如此落后才上线？其中一个原因是，中国一直专注于赢得移动游戏之战。中国制作了2023年全球收入最高的十款游戏中的四款，其中包括榜首的《王者荣耀》。一位中国游戏制作人表示，“移动游戏‘变现速度更快’”，这不利于那些想要在更宏大的项目上投入时间和金钱的设计师。 此外，玩家没有合适的硬件设备也无助于游戏行业的发展。从2000年到2014年，中国以保护青少年心理健康为由禁止进口PlayStation和Xbox游戏机。禁令解除后，中国工作室缺乏为这些游戏机制作游戏的技术；这花了很长时间才赶上。“中国的游戏技术是‘落后的’，”一家大型中国游戏公司的开发者说。《黑神话》使用了美国Epic Games公司开发的名为Unreal Engine的3D图形制作工具。 也许最大的原因在于中国玩家习惯于不花钱玩游戏。版权保护往往不足，软件盗版现象严重。这使得制作复杂的大型游戏在经济上不可行。中国现在更富有了，但随着移动游戏的兴起——这类游戏通常是免费玩的，通过出售游戏中的福利来赚钱——这种习惯已经根深蒂固。当《黑神话》的定价公布为268元（38美元）时，一些中国网民感到惊讶。 《黑神话》的制作方是杭州的GameScience，该公司希望改变这种态度。其老板冯吉信奉“先感动自己，再与市场达成一致”的格言。GameScience研究了最好的游戏和历史资料，以创建一个能够让玩家感受到《西游记》真实世界的游戏。 这一过程耗时6年，但努力得到了回报。在发布后的第一天，《黑神话》在游戏平台Steam上拥有220万名同时在线玩家——这是有史以来任何一款游戏的最高纪录之一。其中大多数玩家来自中国，但它在国外也很受欢迎。在发布后的第一周内，《黑神话：悟空》在美国、德国和日本的Steam平台上成为最畅销的游戏。这款游戏在96%的中国玩家和93%的英语母语玩家中获得了积极的评价。 凭借《黑神话：悟空》，美猴王再次巩固了在中国内容领域的地位。这款游戏已经被宣传为民族自豪感的源泉。官方新闻服务机构新华社称，《黑神话：悟空》“以世界级品质成功讲述了中国的故事”。中国外交部的一位发言人对关于中国的正面新闻故事感到高兴，并认为这款游戏在海外的认可“反映了中国文化的吸引力”。 一些分析师认为，即使《黑神话：悟空》成为传奇之作，中国游戏行业也不会放弃对移动游戏的偏好。但其他人则更为乐观。他们表示，这款游戏的成功证明了中国爆款游戏的可行性，并鼓励其他开发者大胆思考。GameScience积累了经验，使后续项目更加容易。冯先生坚信，“将会有更多中国游戏能够与海外游戏相媲美。”这对于喜欢在游戏机上玩耍的人来说无疑是个好消息。 【词汇积累】 1.thrust v.推挤；戳；插入 n.要点，要旨，中心点；猛推；刺；驱动力 2.clash v.&n.打架，发生冲突，争辩；（两种意见、声明或品质）有分歧；激烈竞争；（颜色或风格）不协调；（时间上）相冲突；（使）碰撞作响 3.demon n.恶魔，魔鬼；技法纯熟者；淘气鬼；颓废心理 4.fabled adj.（尤指因经历丰富而）闻名的；传奇式的 5.warrior n.（尤指旧时的）武士，勇士 6.wily adj.（人）狡猾的，诡计多端的 7.nimble adj.（行动）敏捷的，灵活的；（头脑）机敏的 8.axe n.斧子 9.cleave v.劈开；（使）裂开 10.blockbuster n.（尤指因内容精彩而）非常成功的书（或影片） 11.lingo n.外国语言；行话，术语 12.bemoan v.抱怨；悲叹 13.arena n.（体育比赛或表演用的）场地；活动场所；竞技舞台 14.monetize v.转化为货币；从…赚钱 15.lag v.缓慢移动；滞后；（为保温而）覆盖；使入狱，逮捕 n.（两件事之间的）间隔，延迟；囚犯，犯人 16.scant adj.少量的，不足的；接近，差不多 17.rampant adj.（不好的事情）猖獗的，泛滥的；（纹章上所绘的动物）跃立的 18.nonplussed adj.惊慌的；不知所措的 19.concurrent adj.并发的，同时发生的；并存的 20.accrue v.积累；（逐渐）增加，增多 ( 1 )原创精品资源学科网独家享有版权，侵权必究！ 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
