As our national opera, Beijing Opera combines singing, acting, dancing and performing. You can see many Chinese musical instruments and many roles when enjoying the opera. Pingtan It is said that people first performed pingtan in Suzhou during the Song Dynasty (960-1279). Usually two pingtan artists sit down to perform it. One plays the sanxian, and the other plays the pipa. Both sanxian and pipa are traditional Chinese musical instruments. Suzhou is the best city for you to enjoy the folk art.

How can you keep safe during an earthquake? All earthquakes send out waves (波). An earthquake can be so small that it can’t be felt while a stronger earthquake sends out bigger waves and can be felt for hundreds of miles. Strong earthquakes can harm people and animals. They can make everything in a mess. Once an earthquake starts, it may be too late to escape it. But there are steps you can take to stay safe. When you stay inside, remember to drop, cover, and hold. First, drop to the floor. Second, cover yourself with your arms under strong furniture (家具). Third, hold on to something strong. Stay away from windows or things that could fall. Stay calm and help others do the same. When you stay outside, you should get away from buildings, electrical lines, and other things that can fall and find an open place to stay. After an earthquake, have an adult turn off the gas and water. Pipes crack (管道破裂) and let out harmful gases. Broken pipes can also make water unsafe to drink. Be prepared for what happens after a big earthquake or any natural disaster (灾害). Put together a kit (成套设备) of things you may need. This kit needs to include water, food, and a first-aid kit. Now you will understand how you can stay safe during an earthquake! Don’t forget to tell others about this. 21. How did the writer lead in the topic “earthquake”? A. By giving ideas. B.

The day after the move, while the kids were in school, I dealt with some boxes and hung the family photo on the wall. But it just didn’t feel like home. Maybe I could make some chocolate biscuits, just like my grandma used to do whenever I needed cheering up. When I added eggs to my mixer, it suddenly stopped working. “Really?!” I felt like crying. What would my grandma do? During those hard times, she used whatever she had to support her family. I didn’t think Grandma would give up easily. She would find another way. So I ran to the remaining boxes. I found Grandma’s old white mixer there! I turned the switch (开关) on… nothing. Ugh! The old mixer that was broken beyond (无法) repair was just like my life these days. “Come on! Try again,” a small voice said. I turned the switch back on. To my surprise, the mixer started to work slowly! Two hours later, the kids opened the door. “Mmmm, cookies! Thank you, Mom,” they said, jumping excitedly. For the first time, our new house felt like home. It even smelled like home, just like Grandma’s house always did. Maybe this house wasn’t as big as our old one. But then again, maybe home wasn’t where we lived. It was where we shared the sweet moments and the small miracles (奇迹) of every day, like a broken mix er that came back to life when I needed comfort most. 26.

He solves mysteries. His friend, Watson is almost as good a character in the story as Sherlock Holmes! The very first time they meet, Holmes greatly surprises Watson for Holmes says to Watson, “How do you do? I see you have been to Afghanistan.” Watson is too amazed by this. Watson has, indeed, been to Afghanistan. Later, he asks Holmes about it. Holmes explains that there is nothing magical about what he does. He gets to know it all by very careful observation (观察). Observation One Watson was introduced to Holmes as a doctor. Yet Holmes thought that the way he stood and walked made him seem like a soldier (战士). So, this meant he was probably an army doctor. Observation Two Watson’s face was quite dark-skinned. But his wrists were pale. So his dark face was probably sunburnt (晒伤). This meant that he had been to a hot, sunny country. Observation Three At the time, the British army had soldiers at bases in many parts of the world. So there were still a lot of places to choose from. However, Holmes saw that Watson looked very tired and he was always holding his left arm, as if it was painful (疼痛的). So, he had probably been with the army to a place where they were fighting. There was only one place where the British army was fighting at that time: Afghanistan. 46. Watson was a(n) __________ according to the passage. (仅填1词) 47.

You said you wanted to learn about the customs in China. Now, let me tell you something about them. China is a country with a long history and there are many customs in China. When you meet friends, you should greet each other and just say “hello”, instead of shaking hands frequently. When you eat at a friend’s home, you should not make noise when eating. Don’t knock bowls or plates with chopsticks. This is impolite. If your friends invite you to the party, you’d better arrive a little earlier, 5 to 10 minutes in advance. You can bring a small gift to your fiends. But your friends won’t open presents immediately. This is different from other foreign countries. When in Rome, do as the Romans do. If you obey these, I think you’ll have a great time in China. Yours, Li Hua 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
