You might think snakes are scary. But in Chinese history, snakes have been a symbol of high status (), rebirth and a deep connection between human beings and gods. People have found that in the Erlitou Culture, snake images often showed up on beautiful artifacts (文物). An amazing discovery at the Erlitou Site in Henan is a long, snake-like animal made of over 2, 000 turquoise (绿松石) pieces. Experts believe it could be a snake. Such turquoise pieces were usually funerary objects (随葬品) of people of high status. Starting from the Shang Dynasty, people believed the universe (宇宙) had three parts: gods in heaven (天堂), human beings on Earth, and the underworld beings in the place of the dead. When people saw snakes digging into the underground, they believed that these animals could connect people on the earth, the dead and the gods. Images of people with snake bodies were then created, showing the ability to cross between life and death. Because of their ability to shed skin (蜕皮), snakes were also connected with rebirth. “In ancient people’s eyes, the snakes seemed to have died, but then they shed their skin and came back to life. This showed the idea of revival (复活) after death,” said Han Ding, an associate professor at Henan University. Living on Earth for more than 100 million years, the snake has never been away from Chinese people’s culture and life. “They served as connection between the earth and the heaven, and finally became a zodiac symbol (生肖) for the common folk,” said Wang Fang from the Jinsha Site Museum in Chengdu. 11. Why did ancient people believe snakes could connect people on Earth, the dead, and the gods? A. Because snakes were often seen flying in the sky. B. Because snakes were believed to live in all three parts of the universe. C. Because snakes were considered the rulers of the universe. D. Because snakes could dig into the ground. 12. What can we know about the snake’s role in Chinese zodiac culture? A. It was always seen as a negative (消极的) symbol. B. It was only important during the Shang Dynasty. C. It was removed from the zodiac because of its scary appearance. D. It became a zodiac symbol because of its connection between the heaven and the earth. 13. What is the main idea of the article? A. Snakes are dangerous animals that should be avoided. B. Snakes have played an important role in Chinese culture. C. The Erlitou Culture was the only period in which snakes were important. D. Snakes are the most powerful animals in the Chinese zodiac. 【答案】11. D 12. D 13. B 【解析】 【导语】本文主要探讨了蛇在中国历史文化中的多重象征意义。 【11题详解】 细节理解题。根据“When people saw snakes digging into the underground, they believed that these animals could connect people on the earth, the dead and the gods.”可知，古人认为蛇能挖入地下，因此可以连接人间、冥界和天堂。故选D。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据“They served as connection between the earth and the heaven, and finally became a zodiac symbol (生肖) for the common folk”可知，蛇因连接天地的特性最终成为生肖符号。故选D。 【13题详解】 主旨大意题。全文通过二里头文化、商代宇宙观、蜕皮重生等事例，说明蛇在中国文化中始终扮演重要角色。故选B。 B Do you know these four AI tools?

To their surprise, there was a fisherman always fishing in a part of the river not far from the small lake. The young people thought the fisherman was silly. How could he catch fish in such big waves (波浪)? It was wishful thinking. They thought the old man would leave in a few days, but a month later, the old man was still fishing in the rapid river. One day, one of the young men asked the fisherman, “It’s impossible to catch fish in these rapid waters. Why are you still here? ” the fisherman said nothing, but picked up his basket and put it upside down. Suddenly a number of fish fell off the basket. These fish that were jumping up and down on the ground were so big and fat. The young man was very surprised. Why did the fisherman catch such big fish in such a quick water? The fisherman smiled and said, “The low oxygen (氧气) in the lake is enough for small fish, But these big fish need to have more oxygen in water. They can only go somewhere with big waves. There’s more oxygen in the bigger waves, so there are more big fish there. ”Again the fisherman said, “Many people think that the places with big waves are not right for fish to live, so they choose to fish in a quiet deep lake. But they are just wrong. Strong winds and waves seem to be the suffering (磨难) for fish, but these sufferings are the best oxygen feeder for fish. Only through these hardships can fish grow well. ” 47. Why did the young people think the fisherman was silly at first? _____________________________________________________________ 48.

But in Chinese history snakes have been a symbol of high status (), rebirth and a deep connection between human beings and gods. People have found that in the Erlitou Culture, snake images often showed up on beautiful artifacts (文物). An amazing discovery at the Erlitou Site in Henan is a long, snake-like animal made of over 2, 000 turquoise (绿松石) pieces. Experts believe it could be a snake. Such turquoise pieces were usually funerary objects (随葬品) of people of high status. Starting from the Shang Dynasty, people believed the universe (宇宙) had three parts: gods in heaven (天堂), human beings on Earth, and the underworld beings in the place of the dead. When people saw snakes digging into the underground, they believed that these animals could connect people on the earth, the dead and the gods. Images of people with snake bodies were then created, showing the ability to cross between life and death. Because of their ability to shed skin (蜕皮), snakes were also connected with rebirth. “In ancient people’s eyes, the snakes seemed to have died, but then they shed their skin and came back to life. This showed the idea of revival (复活) after death,” said Han Ding, an associate professor at Henan University. Living on Earth for more than 100 million years, the snake has never been away from Chinese people’s culture and life. “They served as connection between the earth and the heaven, and finally became a zodiac symbol (生肖) for the common folk,” said Wang Fang from the Jinsha Site Museum in Chengdu. 11. Why did ancient people believe snakes could connect people on Earth, the dead, and the gods? A. Because snakes were often seen flying in the sky. B. Because snakes were believed to live in all three parts of the universe. C. Because snakes were considered the rulers of the universe. D. Because snakes could dig into the ground. 12. What can we know about the snake’s role in Chinese zodiac culture? A. It was always seen as a negative (消极) symbol. B. It was only important during the Shang Dynasty. C. It was removed from the zodiac because of its scary appearance. D. It became a zodiac symbol because of its connection between the heaven and the earth. 13. What is the main idea of the article? A. Snakes are dangerous animals that should be avoided. B. Snakes have played an important role in Chinese culture. C. The Erlitou Culture was the only period in which snakes were important. D. Snakes are the most powerful animals in the Chinese zodiac. B Do you know these four AI tools? Here are four AI tools that can make your life smarter and easier.

These fish that were jumping up and down on the ground were so big and fat. The young man was very surprised. Why did the fisherman catch such big fish in such a quick water? The fisherman smiled and said, “The low oxygen (氧气) in the lake is enough for small fish, But these big fish need to have more oxygen in water. They can only go somewhere with big waves. There’s more oxygen in the bigger waves, so there are more big fish there. ”Again the fisherman said, “Many people think that the places with big waves are not right for fish to live, so they choose to fish in a quiet deep lake.
