C Ne Zha 2 became a huge hit (热门) during the Spring Festival, breaking box-office records in China and even around the world. Its success is not just about money——it shows Chinese animated (动画) films are growing stronger and Chinese people are proud of our culture. It also teaches us how new ideas can make stories exciting. The movie retells a traditional Chinese story but in a modern way. Ne Zha, once just a character from old tales, becomes a hero who fights for himself.

The film looks amazing with special effects (特效). Over 4, 000 people worked on it, creating 1,900 special scenes. This shows China’s skill in animation and their hard work to make great films.

This teamwork helps China’s animation industry (产业) grow and shows how collaboration can help all to success. The film’s popularity shows Chinese people love seeing their culture shared in creative ways. It also shows that adding new ideas to old stories can make them loved by everyone.

While many Chinese people speak Putonghua, some local dialects are in danger of disappearing. To save them, Chinese government started the Chinese Language Resources Protection Project (中国语言资源保护工程) a few years ago. ②This project researches how people talk in 1,712 places. Their languages include (包括) 103 dialects that are almost gone. It has helped China to build the largest language resource library in the world. There’s an online library where people can learn dialects from over 5.6 million audio clips (音频) and over 5 million videos. ③Why is it important to protect the dialect culture? Scholar Zhang Hongming talked about his worries of the disappearing of dialects. “For about over 10 years, in the Wu dialect areas such as Shanghai and Suzhou, children aged 6 to 15 can understand but hardly speak the dialect, young people above 15 years old sometimes speak it, but not very well. If this keeps happening, the dialect might disappear,” he said. ④According to British linguist (英国语言学家) Harold Palmer, dialects are a key to store local cultures. Language shows the history, the beliefs and the biases (偏见) of an area, he said. ⑤________ A big national hard work has been put into the project to make it happen, said Cao Zhiyun, the expert on the project. Over five years, more than 350 universities and research groups joined in, along with over 4,500 experts and more than 6,000 dialect speakers. ⑥Besides, there are many other common people protect the dialect culture. Some make films with people speaking in dialect, others play ads on buses or other public places in local dialects. 32. Why did the Chinese government start the project? A. To public the dialects. B. To learn the dialects. C. To copy the dialects. D. To save the dialects. 33. Which of the following sentences can be put in the ________ in Paragraph 5? A. Where was the largest dialect library built? B. How many speakers did take part in this project? C. Who joined in the project to protect dialects culture? D. How did Chinese people protect these dialects culture? 34. What’s the purpose (目的) of writing the passage? A. To tell us that Chinese talked in many dialects. B. To suggest us that we have to learn different dialects. C. To suggest that we prepare for the disappearing of dialects. D. To show us that China has done much work in the project. 35. Which would be the best structure of the passage? A. ①②/③④⑤/⑥ B. ①②/③④/⑤⑥ C. ①/②③④/⑤⑥ D. ①/②③/④⑤⑥ Ⅴ. 口语运用。（每小题2分，共10分） 阅读下面对话，从7个选项中选择5个恰当的句子完成此对话，并把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑。 Molly: Why are you crying?

For students aged 6 to 11 years old, they should have 9 to 12 hours of sleep; for students aged 12 to 18 years old, they should have 8 to 10 hours of sleep; and for people who are over 18 years old, they should sleep 7 hours or more. As we all know, enough sleep is important for teenagers. When teenagers get enough sleep, they can get stronger physically and don’t fall ill easily. They can also do better in schoolwork. Enough sleep also has much to do with their emotional stability (情绪稳定). When teenagers don’t get enough sleep, they can get angry more easily. However, a study shows that many teenagers in America are not getting enough sleep. Here are the results. Teens need at least 8 hours of sleep at night, but results show most teens get much less 60% of middle schoolers and 70% of high schoolers report inadequate (不够的) sleep on school nights. Why is it hard for teens to get good sleep? In fact, there is more than one reason. One of the reasons is late bedtime and early school start times. Now, more and more teenagers are having a habit of being “a night owl”, staying up later at night and sleeping longer into the morning. If they can sleep as long as they wish, many teens would get eight hours or more a night, but most school start times ask them to wake up much earlier in the morning. The use of electronic devices (电子设备) like the smartphone and computer is another reason. Research has found that 89% or more of teens keep at least one device in their bedroom at night. Screen time late into the evening can cause sleep problems. Using these devices can keep teens excited so it might be difficult for them to fall asleep quickly. Sudden phone messages can disrupt (干扰) sleep. And being in the light from smartphones also makes people feel less sleepy. So teens should improve their sleep environment and habits to get better sleep. Here are some tips (建议). ● Get eight hours of sleep a night on weekdays and weekends. ● Put away electronic devices at least a half-hour before bed. ● Keep your bedroom cool, dark and quiet. 41.

When it comes to difficult topics, you may not know how to talk to your parents. Here is some advice. Think about what you want from your parents. Do you want them to listen and hear you out? Or help with a problem you’re having? It helps if you know what you want. Put it into words. For example, “I need to tell you about a problem I’m having.” “I need your advice about something. Can we talk?” “I have difficulty getting on with my deskmate. Could you please tell me what I should do?” Think about how you feel. Are you afraid that your parents will be angry or sad because you get in some trouble? Don’t let those feelings stop you from talking. Parents are always there for us when we are in trouble. Instead, put your feelings into words. For example, “I need to talk to you. But I’m afraid I’ll let you down.” Practice before you talk. When it comes to talk time, you may be afraid to start or forget what you want to say. Then, try practicing what you want to say in front of a mirror. Or practice with a friend. Practice can help you feel more comfortable when you’re talking. Pick a good time and place to talk. Find a time when your parents aren’t busy. Ask, “Can we talk? Is now a good time?” Try to find a space where there are no other people around. And then, just get started.
