It’s believed to have started in the Three Kingdoms period and peaked in the Southern and Northern Dynasties. In ancient China, the lion was regarded as a symbol of good luck. The lion dance is often performed in celebrations to this day and in 2006, it was listed as a national intangible cultural heritage (非物质文化遗产).  Qiu Haiwei, 17, and Huang Qingliang, 16, are two lion dance lovers in Guangxi Zhuang autonomous region. They started learning the dance two years ago. Though lion dance performances are breathtaking, learning the art is another matter.  Dancing on the poles makes the art a fascinating sight. There are 21 poles of heights between 1.2 meters and 2.5 meters with up to 1.8 meters between them. A single false step will send the performers falling to the ground below. As a result the ancient art form has fallen out of favor with the young generation, as the skills take years to master while only a low wage can be earned. Also, coaches and funding can be hard to find, so it’s difficult for a lion dance troupe (表演队) to survive. But since 2017, local authorities in Guangxi have teamed up with companies and schools to help reboot the ancient art.  “We must work hard to help pass on the heritage and its spirit to future generations,” Deng Minghua, a national inheritor of the cultural heritage, told Xinhua. 12. What’s the longest distance between two poles used for lion dance? A. 1.8 meters. B. 2.5 meters. C. 1.2 meters. D. 2.4 meters. 13. Why is it difficult for the lion dance troupe to survive? A. No one wants to learn lion dance. B. Mastering lion dance takes decades. C. The payment is not satisfying enough. D. Coaches are not professional enough. 14. What can be learned about lion dance according to the text? A. People will perform it only in spring festival. B. Local authorities attach great importance to it. C It started in the Southern and Northern Dynasties. D. It has been added to the list of tangible cultural heritage. 15. What’s the text mainly about? A. The future development of lion dance. B. How to perform lion dance successfully. C. Why young generations don’t prefer lion dance. D. The importance of keeping lion dance culture alive. 【答案】12. A 13. C 14. B 15. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章向读者介绍了中国传统的表演艺术——舞狮。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“There are 21 poles of heights between 1.2 meters and 2.5 meters with up to 1.8 meters between them.(有21根高度在1.2米到2.5米之间的柱子，它们之间的距离高达1.8米)”可知，舞狮中用到的柱子之间距离最远达1.8米。故选A项。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“As a result, the ancient art form has fallen out of favor with the young generation, as the skills take years to master while only a low wage can be earned. Also, coaches and funding can be hard to find, so it’s difficult for a lion dance troupe (表演队) to survive.(因此，这种古老的艺术形式已经失去了年轻一代的青睐，因为掌握这些技能需要多年的时间，而工资却很低。此外，教练和资金很难找到，所以舞狮团很难生存)”可知，舞狮表演队很难生存其中一个原因就是薪水很低。故选C项。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段末句“But since 2017, local authorities in Guangxi have teamed up with companies and schools to help reboot the ancient art.(但自2017年以来，广西地方当局与公司和学校合作，帮助重启这门古老的艺术)”可推测，当地政府很重视这种艺术的传承。故选B项。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。第一段“The lion dance is often performed in celebrations to this day and in 2006, it was listed as a national intangible cultural heritage.(舞狮活动至今仍是庆祝活动的一部分，2006年，舞狮被列为国家非物质文化遗产)”主要介绍了这种艺术的历史悠久及其在中国文化中的地位；第二段至第四段介绍了这种古老的艺术形式的动人之处及其现在的状况，学习和训练危险又辛苦，也不能短时间学成，收入却很少，很少年轻人愿意学习，有失传的风险，而这是中国文化的重要组成部分，不能失传，最后两段讲述了政府和舞狮爱好者在不断努力使这种古老艺术传承下去，焕发新的生机。所以综合全文，这篇文章旨在介绍使舞狮文化生存下去的重要性，A.B.C.三个选项只是文章中的几个细节，不是文章主旨。故选D项。 第二节 七选五(共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分)阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 High school is a busy time, but it doesn’t have to be unbearable!

He went downstairs in a hurry and started to have hisbreakfast as quickly as possible. “Why are you in such a hurry, early bird?" Mum asked him. “We will have an English spelling test today, Mum," Peter said. “Mr. White promised to offer prizes to those who get 100 scores. I've been studying the word list since last week. Although the words are difficult, I am well prepared for them.” Peter reviewed the spelling of each word once more carefully when Dad drove down. Thirty words later, the test papers were collected by Mr. White. “I am to mark your papers now," he told the class. After marking the test papers, Mr. White said, “Three of you won a prize today for excellent test scores. Peter. David and Mary got 100 percent on the spelling test!" Mr. White praised them. Meanwhile, he gave the three students each a dictionary. Peter's was an English-Chinese dictionary—the one he liked best. Peter was so excited that he held it high when his classmates cheered. "This is my happiest moment,” Peter thought. After Mr. White gave the test paper back, Peter had a look at the words, feeling proud of his spelling. All of a sudden, the word “contribution" confused him. It didn't seem right. Peter began to compare them after taking out the wordlist. “C-o-n-t-r-i-b-u-s-i-o-n，”he whispered. He had spelledit wrong. “What am I to do?” Peter said to himself. “I expect my classmates to think I'm a master in spelling. If I tell Mr. White one of my spelling words is wrong, I'll have to give my prize back, or I will become an example for telling a lie". Staring at the red sign “100%” which was written at his test paper, Peter was lost in thought. After a while, he remembered a lesson Mum used to teach him, “We ought to be an honest person.” 注意： 1.续写词数应为150左右； 2.请按如下格式作答。 Slowly, Peter raised his hand. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Peter looked around and found many of his classmates were smiling at him. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Paragraph 1: Slowly, Peter raised his hand. “Mr. White, I didn’t get100 percent on the test. I missed a word.” He stood up and handed his teacher the dictionary he liked best and his test paper. “I spelled contribution with ‘s-i’ instead of ‘t-i’.” Peter could feel his classmates looking at him with surprise as he walked back to his desk. Mr. White held up Peter’s test paper. “Class,” he said, “Peter did something even more important than spelling every word correctly on a test.” Mr.White smiled at Peter. “He taught us all a lesson on being honest.” Paragraph 2: Peter looked around and found many of his classmates were smiling at him. “Peter, I want you to have this dictionary because you set a good example for all of us, ” Mr. White said. Peter took the dictionary from his teacher and expressed his thanks to Mr. White. Meanwhile, he couldn’t wait to show it to Mum and tell her one of his best days ever. 【解析】 【分析】本文是一篇记叙文。讲述了彼得的一天，在一次听写测试中彼得考了100分，并得到了最喜爱的奖品后发现了自己一个单词拼写错误，一番纠结后还是选择了向老师坦白，并因诚实得到了老师的表扬，这成为他最美好的一天之一。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“彼得缓慢地举起了自己的手。”可知，第一段可描写彼得决定诚实地向老师承认拼写中的错误。 ②由第二段首句内容“彼得环顾四周发现很多同学都在对着他笑。”可知，第二段可描写彼得承认拼写错误后，他的诚实得到了老师和同学的表扬，继续拥有字典作为奖励。 2.续写线索：向老师承认拼写错误——老师表扬了他的诚实——同学们的赞成——得到字典作为奖励——感谢老师——想要给妈妈分享 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①举起：raise/put up ②笑：smile/laugh/beam ③得到：get/gain/obtain 情绪类 ①.感谢：express his thanks to/showing his appreciation/show his gratitude/be grateful ②.吃惊：surprise/amazement 【点睛】 [高分句型1].

D Lion dance, which mimics (模仿) a lion with kung fu and acrobatic (杂技的) styles, is a traditional Chinese performing art that could often be seen during festive occasions like Spring Festival. It’s believed to have started in the Three Kingdoms period and peaked in the Southern and Northern Dynasties. In ancient China, the lion was regarded as a symbol of good luck. The lion dance is often performed in celebrations to this day and in 2006, it was listed as a national intangible cultural heritage (非物质文化遗产).  Qiu Haiwei, 17, and Huang Qingliang, 16, are two lion dance lovers in Guangxi Zhuang autonomous region. They started learning the dance two years ago. Though lion dance performances are breathtaking, learning the art is another matter.  Dancing on the poles makes the art a fascinating sight. There are 21 poles of heights between 1.2 meters and 2.5 meters with up to 1.8 meters between them. A single false step will send the performers falling to the ground below. As a result, the ancient art form has fallen out of favor with the young generation, as the skills take years to master while only a low wage can be earned. Also, coaches and funding can be hard to find, so it’s difficult for a lion dance troupe (表演队) to survive. But since 2017, local authorities in Guangxi have teamed up with companies and schools to help reboot the ancient art.  “We must work hard to help pass on the heritage and its spirit to future generations,” Deng Minghua, a national inheritor of the cultural heritage, told Xinhua. 12. What’s the longest distance between two poles used for lion dance? A. 1.8 meters. B. 2.5 meters. C. 1.2 meters. D. 2.4 meters. 13. Why is it difficult for the lion dance troupe to survive? A. No one wants to learn lion dance. B. Mastering lion dance takes decades. C. The payment is not satisfying enough. D. Coaches are not professional enough. 14. What can be learned about lion dance according to the text? A. People will perform it only in spring festival. B. Local authorities attach great importance to it. C. It started in the Southern and Northern Dynasties. D. It has been added to the list of tangible cultural heritage. 15. What’s the text mainly about? A. The future development of lion dance. B. How to perform lion dance successfully. C. Why young generations don’t prefer lion dance. D. The importance of keeping lion dance culture alive. 第二节 七选五(共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分)阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 High school is a busy time, but it doesn’t have to be unbearable!

He went downstairs in a hurry and started to have hisbreakfast as quickly as possible. “Why are you in such a hurry, early bird?" Mum asked him. “We will have an English spelling test today, Mum," Peter said. “Mr. White promised to offer prizes to those who get 100 scores. I've been studying the word list since last week. Although the words are difficult, I am well prepared for them.” Peter reviewed the spelling of each word once more carefully when Dad drove down. Thirty words later, the test papers were collected by Mr. White. “I am to mark your papers now," he told the class. After marking the test papers, Mr. White said, “Three of you won a prize today for excellent test scores. Peter. David and Mary got 100 percent on the spelling test!" Mr. White praised them. Meanwhile, he gave the three students each a dictionary. Peter's was an English-Chinese dictionary—the one he liked best. Peter was so excited that he held it high when his classmates cheered. "This is my happiest moment,” Peter thought. After Mr. White gave the test paper back, Peter had a look at the words, feeling proud of his spelling. All of a sudden, the word “contribution" confused him. It didn't seem right. Peter began to compare them after taking out the wordlist. “C-o-n-t-r-i-b-u-s-i-o-n，”he whispered. He had spelledit wrong. “What am I to do?” Peter said to himself. “I expect my classmates to think I'm a master in spelling. If I tell Mr. White one of my spelling words is wrong, I'll have to give my prize back, or I will become an example for telling a lie". Staring at the red sign “100%” which was written at his test paper, Peter was lost in thought. After a while, he remembered a lesson Mum used to teach him, “We ought to be an honest person.” 注意： 1.续写词数应为150左右； 2.请按如下格式作答。 Slowly, Peter raised his hand. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Peter looked around and found many of his classmates were smiling at him. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
