This is one of the very special parts of tea as it has a way of connecting people all over the world in different ways and ceremonies that finally all results in a group of people sitting together and enjoying a cup of tea. Chinese tea culture Since China is viewed as the birthplace of tea, it is no wonder that Chinese tea culture is rich with history and tradition. Today, Chinese tea continues to be used in Chinese medicine and is commonly consumed on both casual and formal occasions both for personal enjoyment and to represent Chinese cultural traditions. Japanese tea culture Japan also has a long history with tea,especially Japanese Matcha, which is a kind of ground green tea that is commonly used in Japanese tea ceremonies and only in recent years became popular in Western culture. British tea culture When many people think about tea, British tea culture is what comes to mind. A hot cup of English Breakfast or Earl Grey tea serves with a little milk and a biscuit in the afternoon as a pick-me-up for the day. Even though tea may not be native to England, this British tea tradition is still going strong today. Moroccan tea culture When you visit Morocco, it is hard to miss the outstanding tea culture that is such a large part of Moroccan hospitality. Before any gathering, negotiation, or sale of a product, a pot of mint tea is always prepared and served among the host and guests. This is an expression of Moroccan tradition and hospitality, which should always be accepted by guests as a sign of appreciation and respect to the host. 21．Why can tea find its way into various food cultures? A．It originates in Asia. B．It forms different ceremonies. C．It gets people connected easily. D．It allows people to sit together. 22．In which country may a cup of mint tea be served before negotiation? A．China. B．Japan. C．Britain. D．Morocco. 23．In which column (专栏) on social media may the text appear? A．Healthy You. B．Social Insight. C．Cultural Corner. D．Itchy Feet Travel. B Many of China’s ancient architectural treasures crumbled into dust before Lin Huiyin and Liang Sicheng began documenting them in the 1930s. The husband and wife team were among the first preservationists to operate in China, and by far the best known. Their efforts have since inspired generations of people to speak out for architecture threatened by the rapid development. Becoming China’s best architectural historians was no easy accomplishment. The buildings they wanted to save were centuries old, often located in distant parts of the country. In many cases, they had to journey through dangerous conditions in the Chinese countryside to reach them. Exploring China’s remote areas during the 1930s meant traveling muddy, poorly maintained (养护) roads by mule (骡子), or on foot. Inns (客栈) were often dirty, food could be polluted, and there was always risk of violence from rebels, soldiers and robbers. Their greatest discovery was the Temple of Buddha’s Light, in Wutai County, Shanxi Province. The breathtaking wooden temple was rebuilt in 857 A．D．, making it the oldest building known in China at the time. Liang and Lin crawled into the temple’s most forbidding, forgotten areas to determine its age, including one hideaway inhabited by thousands of bats and millions of bedbugs, covered in dust and littered with dead bats. “In complete darkness and among awful smell, hardly breathing, with thick masks covering our noses and mouths, we measured, drew, and photographed with flashlights for several hours. When at last we came out to take a breath of fresh air, we found hundreds of bedbugs in our bag. We ourselves had been badly bitten. Yet the importance and unexpectedness of our find made those the happiest hours of my years hunting for ancient architecture.” Liang wrote of the experience in an account included in the book “Liang and Lin: Partners in Exploring China’s Architectural Past”. 24．What does the underlined word “crumbled” mean in Paragraph 1? A．Were stolen. B．Fell down. C．Looked old. D．Closed up. 25．On their way to the ancient buildings in the 1930s, what risks did Liang and Lin mainly face? A．Transport and accommodations. B．Personal safety and weather. C．Communication with locals and food. D．Road conditions and funds. 26．What can we infer from Liang’s words in the text? A．They considered their work was the most important. B．They were well-equipped before entering the temple. C．They found some surprising things in the temple. D．The conditions inside the temple were common to them. 27．Which of the following is the best title for the passage? A．Tough Conditions in China’s Remote Areas B．Partners in Documenting China’s Architectural Treasures C．The Reason for Liang and Lin’s Exploration D．The Difficulties China’s Architectural Historians Are Facing C We will soon enter the Year of the Dragon. Or should that be the Year of the Loong? That is a question that has aroused heated debate. Influenced by Greek mythology (神话), the dragon is often the keeper of treasure, so the dragon is often a symbol of greed and destruction. In addition to the image of “Saint George slaying the dragon” in the medieval manuscripts of Europe, there is also the Great Red Dragon in the Christian Bible’s Book of Revelation, which refers to Satan and the end times. For Europeans, dragon is usually a monster keeping distances away from people, a symbol of darkness. With four legs and two huge black wings, they can spit fire or even poison gas out of their mouth, with great destructive power. Such symbolic resonance (共鸣) can be seen in the enduring appeal of dragons in Western popular culture today where they are important parts of fantasy literature, films, video games, and TV shows, often representing a mix of awe-inspiring and fearsome qualities that put them at the heart of struggles between good and evil. Contrary to the evil image of European dragons, Chinese dragons traditionally symbolize different meanings. The loong has been a central symbol in Chinese culture for thousands of years, and its origins can be traced back to early Chinese civilization through mythology, folklore and religious beliefs. They even had jobs, as in Chinese legends dragons were appointed head of the four seas where they must keep order, as well as the job of bringing rain to the earth. Since loong were believed to have control over natural phenomena such as rain, storms and water, and were associated with the life-giving properties of water and the fertility of the land, loong became symbols of strength and good fortune, and they became associated with balance, harmony and the natural order of the universe. The differences in perception of the mythical creatures in China and the West are rooted in their different cultural values. Thus the answer to the question at the beginning is clear: Whether or not to use loong instead of dragon is not important. What is important is that as we enter a new lunar year people globally appreciate the cultural values embodied in such Chinese symbols as loong. 28．Which of the following best describes Westerners’ attitude towards the dragon? A．Lovable. B．Frightened. C．Acceptable. D．Favorable. 29．How is the whole passage organized? A．By presenting numbers. B．By telling ancient stories. C．By making a definition. D．By making comparison. 30．What makes loong symbols of strength and good fortune in Chinese culture? A．The long history of loong. B．The various jobs loong had. C．People’s positive beliefs in loong. D．Loong’s ability to control nature. 31．What does the author want to convey in the last paragraph? A．People only in China appreciate the cultural values. B．Different cultures have different understanding of dragon. C．It’s important to identify the differences between dragon and loong. D．Everyone expects to enter a new lunar loong year. D Lawrence Ganti from the US has lived in Switzerland, Japan, and India. When his work with Merck, a company that develops treatments for many of the world’s most challenging diseases, first took him to Japan, he was struck by how comfortable his Japanese co- workers were with silence. During meetings in the US, people are usually uneasy with quiet and fill a quiet period with talk. Not so in Japan. “You don’t break the silence unless you have something important to say,” says Ganti. Surprisingly, when he next lived in India, he found conversations were typically lively, loud and full of interruptions (打岔). “Silence is never expected,” he says. The Japanese value the building of trust and relationships, Ganti adds. In Japan, nothing might be achieved in the first meeting, and no real progress may be made until the parties sit down for a lunch or dinner. Ganti remembers greeting foreigners who flew to Japan with the intention of holding their meeting and flying out that same day. “It’s just a half- hour discussion,” they told him. He replied, “That half- hour discussion won’t go anywhere.” Cyrus Sabouri from New Jersey, the US, had similar experiences in the Middle East. He lives in Bahrain, where he works for American Express Middle East. “Meetings can require personal introductions, which often take up more of the meeting than the things to be discussed,” he says. He was frustrated by this custom when he first moved to the island nation. “You eventually learn that it is hard to draw the line between business and personal life,” he says. “Warm and friendly relationships can be the difference between a deal or no deal with the Bahraini.” Ganti’s current job with Merck takes him throughout Latin America. While each country presents its own cultural puzzle to figure out, Ganti has found that cultures have a lot in common. In many parts of Latin America, for instance, giving straight advice or criticism in conversation isn’t typical. To make a point, he did just that in meetings, and attendees were often shocked. “I’m usually sent to places where change is needed,” Ganti says. “You have to make changes.” 32．How do Indians differ from the Japanese according to Ganti? A．They dislike being interrupted. B．They seem nervous in business meetings. C．They easily accept silence. D．They usually talk excitedly. 33．What had the foreigners going to Japan expected according to paragraph 2? A．They would have a very interesting meeting. B．They could get their tasks done soon. C．They could leave Japan the next day. D．They would be invited to dinner. 34．What frustrated Sabouri when he first worked in Bahrain? A．Bahrainis value relationships very highly. B．There are a lot of long business meetings. C．Personal introductions are often ignored. D．Work is more important than life there. 35．The author writes the text mainly to ______. A．introduce his working experience in Latin America B．discuss American’s impression on Middle East C．talk about some cultural differences D．give some facts about Japanese manners 第二节（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。 My Reverse (反向的) Culture Shock Language difficulties. Culture shock. Homesickness (乡愁). 36 But for me, returning home proved the hardest of all. After the experience of a year abroad, coming home can feel disappointing. Why was I feeling so disconnected? 37 I’d idealized (理想化) home in my mind. And I’d expected everything to remain exactly the same while I was gone. When I got back and the reality fell short of these ideals, I experienced what I’d call a reverse culture shock. The idea might seem a bit over the top, especially for exchange students who have only spent a year or less away from home. But as you live in a new culture, you quickly adapt to a different way of life; meanwhile, you think life at home is no different. 38 Some friends have been apart from each other while others have become closer together. When you arrive in an unknown place, it takes effort to adapt to your new environment. Your days are filled with new interests and busy schedule. 39 It seems strange to me that no one at university warns you about this beforehand. The feeling of disconnection can be hard to shake off. I kept wondering how long it would take to feel normal again. Getting a part-time job would eventually help relieve my own sense of disconnection. 40 Readjusting at home has been harder than life abroad, but I’m starting to find a new normal. A．However, everyone changes. B．I’d lost interest in everything at home. C．I realized I’d done two things while I was away. D．Spending more time with family and friends also helped. E．Most people experience these problems in their daily jobs. F．These are the things you might worry about before studying abroad. G．No surprise once the period is over, many exchange students feel at a loss. 第三部分 语言运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节 （共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 As my son and I were leaving for his basketball class, we found a cat sitting outside the door.

Moreover, when 56 (travel) through China, you’ll most likely pick up on a few differences in the way of eating food. For instance, soup in the West 57 (enjoy) generally as an appetizer (开胃菜), while the Chinese prefer to enjoy their soup at the end of a meal. You might also notice some distinct differences in meal preparation and cooking techniques. Therefore, cooking classes are becoming an 58 (increase) popular activity among those interested in learning more about China’s culture through its cuisine. If you’re looking to take it a step 59 (far), keep an eye out for cooking classes 60 (hold) by residents in their own homes. 61 it comes to traditional Chinese games, the Chinese have always been sociable people. Despite the country’s super technological advancement and the increasing 62 (popular) of personal electronic devices, the majority of Chinese would rather spend time socializing with others than sit alone at home. From popular board games like Go (围棋) and Chinese chess to kids’ games like Chinese jump rope, China offers 63 (vary) options to keep people busy. Most locals are more than happy to share their traditions 64 foreign visitors, so don’t be shy to ask the next time you go for 65 walk through the park. 第四部分 写作（共两节, 满分40分） 第一节（满分15分） 66．最近你市发现了一处唐文化遗址。针对是否应当开发，人们展开了激烈的讨论。假如你是一名记者，请就此写一篇报道。 赞成开发 应开发利用以吸引更多的游客来旅游观光 反对开发 应保持原样，妥善保护，以免遭人为破坏 参考词汇: 开发 (explore) ；旅游业 (tourism) 注意: 词数 80 左右。 ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第二节（满分25分） 67．阅读下面材料, 根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段, 使之构成一篇完整的短文。续写的词数应为150左右。 As I unzipped my lunchbox, the whole place was turned into a spicy curry (咖喱) dream. I immediately hid it under my seat, hoping no one would take notice. Mom had really outdone herself with masala — our family’s all-time favorite dish back in India. But today, it wasn’t just about me and my lunch. A warm smile on his face, Ricky invited me, a new transfer student from India to New York city, for lunch. “Ava, come sit here!” Ricky called out, gesturing towards a vacant seat. As I made my way over, memories of those awkward lunchtimes when I studied in Kansas, one of the most conservative states, flooded back. I could still recall how everyone would wrinkle their noses and stare curiously when I unpacked my Indian food. It always made me feel like an outsider, like I didn’t belong. Therefore, before my first day in this school, I had demanded my mom pack “normal” western-style food for me. I still remembered the look on her face upon hearing it, as she signed in disappointment and confusion, “Isn’t there a moment when you feel proud of your origin?” That was hurting, but not more hurting than others’ giggles and whispers. Honestly, long queues were common in Indian restaurants in New York city, a cultural melting pot, but I wouldn’t take that risk. Unfortunately, this morning, Mom had forgotten to make sandwich or any “normal” food, so I had to bring leftovers from our dinner. At the thought of the possible oh-no-second (社死), I felt like being thrown into darkness. However, before I came back to reality, Ricky noticed my sneaking (躲躲藏藏). “What do you have for lunch?” he asked, his eyes twinkling with interest. I tried to brush it off (搪塞), claiming I wasn’t hungry. But Ricky wouldn’t let it go, and before I could protest, he had the lid of my lunchbox open and I prepared myself for such familiar responses as “Ew” or “What is that?” 注意： 1.续写词数应为150左右; 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 However, I did not get what I was expecting. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ After school, I found Mom preparing sandwich for tomorrow’s lunch. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 试题 第3页（共8页） 试题 第4页（共8页） 试题 第1页（共8页） 试题 第2页（共8页） 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ Unit 1 Cultural Heritage单元测试·提升卷 （考试时间：100分钟 试卷满分：120分） （参考答案） （考试时间：120分钟 试卷满分：150分） 第一部分 听力（共20小题，每小题1.5分，满分30分） 题号 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 答案 B A C B A A B C A C 题号 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 答案 C B B A C A B C B A 第二部分 阅读理解（共20小题，每小题2.5分， 满分50分） 21．C 22．D 23．C 24．B 25．A 26．C 27．B 28．B 29．D 30．C 31．B 32．D 33．D 34．A 35．C 36．F 37．C 38．A 39．G 40．D 第三部分 语言运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节 （共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 41．C 42．A 43．B 44．B 45．D 46．A 47．C 48．D 49．B 50．C 51．D 52．B 53．D 54．A 55．C 第二节（共10小题；每小题1. 5分, 满分15分） 56．travelling/traveling 57．is enjoyed 58．increasingly 59．further 60．held 61．When 62．popularity 63．various/varied 64．with 65．a 第四部分 写作（共两节, 满分40分） 第一节（满分15分） Should Cultural Relics Give Way to Tourism? Recently, citizens in our city have had a heated debate on whether we should explore the cultural relic discovered in our city. Some people are in favor of the idea. They think the cultural relic is worth exploring, which will make people learn more about the great history of our country. What’s more, this cultural relic can attract more visitors to our city, which will promote our tourism. However, others hold an opposite opinion, thinking that we should keep it as it is and protect it properly. Only in this way can it not be destroyed by people. As far as I am concerned, we should turn to the experts for advice to find a better way to make good use of this cultural relic. 第二节（满分25分） 67．However, I did not get what I was expecting. Ricky took a deep breath, closed his eyes, and savored the aroma of the masala. Instead of the usual stares and whispers, there was only interest on Ricky’s face. His face lit up with a broad smile, asking, “You mum made masala for your lunch?” Before I could make a response, he added: “I could be dying of envy! You know what, last Sunday, my parents and I queued up for three hours in harsh cold in fifth Avenue for the new India restaurant.” He enjoyed every bite, nodding his head in approval. It was a welcome change from the stares and whispers I had grown accustomed to. After school, I found Mom preparing sandwich for tomorrow’s lunch. I came over and asked if I could have palak paneer in my lunchbox, which made her a bit confused. Finally, I told her about my experience with Ricky and how he had enjoyed my food. Mom’s face lit up with joy. “I’m glad he liked it,” she said. “And I’m even happier that you’re starting to feel proud of your roots again.” She paused and looked at me seriously. “Your culture, your traditions, and your food are all a part of who you are.” I nodded, feeling a sense of relief wash over me. Mom’s words had given me the courage to embrace my identity and share my culture with others. 原创精品资源学科网独家享有版权，侵权必究！1 学科网（北京）股份有限公司1 / 2 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$听力考试正式开始。Bob, your dog looks tired. Yes.

This is one of the very special parts of tea as it has a way of connecting people all over the world in different ways and ceremonies that finally all results in a group of people sitting together and enjoying a cup of tea. Chinese tea culture Since China is viewed as the birthplace of tea, it is no wonder that Chinese tea culture is rich with history and tradition. Today, Chinese tea continues to be used in Chinese medicine and is commonly consumed on both casual and formal occasions both for personal enjoyment and to represent Chinese cultural traditions. Japanese tea culture Japan also has a long history with tea,especially Japanese Matcha, which is a kind of ground green tea that is commonly used in Japanese tea ceremonies and only in recent years became popular in Western culture. British tea culture When many people think about tea, British tea culture is what comes to mind. A hot cup of English Breakfast or Earl Grey tea serves with a little milk and a biscuit in the afternoon as a pick-me-up for the day. Even though tea may not be native to England, this British tea tradition is still going strong today. Moroccan tea culture When you visit Morocco, it is hard to miss the outstanding tea culture that is such a large part of Moroccan hospitality. Before any gathering, negotiation, or sale of a product, a pot of mint tea is always prepared and served among the host and guests. This is an expression of Moroccan tradition and hospitality, which should always be accepted by guests as a sign of appreciation and respect to the host. 21．Why can tea find its way into various food cultures? A．It originates in Asia. B．It forms different ceremonies. C．It gets people connected easily. D．It allows people to sit together. 22．In which country may a cup of mint tea be served before negotiation? A．China. B．Japan. C．Britain. D．Morocco. 23．In which column (专栏) on social media may the text appear? A．Healthy You. B．Social Insight. C．Cultural Corner. D．Itchy Feet Travel. 【答案】21．C 22．D 23．C 【导语】本文是说明文。文章主要介绍了茶文化的起源以及不同国家的茶文化特色，包括中国、日本、英国和摩洛哥的茶文化。 21．细节理解题。根据第一段“This is one of the very special parts of tea as it has a way of connecting people all over the world in different ways and ceremonies that finally all results in a group of people sitting together and enjoying a cup of tea.(这是茶的一个非常特别的部分，因为它有一种方式将世界各地的人们以不同的方式和仪式联系在一起，最终导致一群人坐在一起享受一杯茶)”可知，因为它让人们很容易联系起来，所以茶能进入各种饮食文化。故选C项。 22．细节理解题。根据Moroccan tea culture下的“When you visit Morocco, it is hard to miss the outstanding tea culture that is such a large part of Moroccan hospitality. Before any gathering, negotiation, or sale of a product, a pot of mint tea is always prepared and served among the host and guests. This is an expression of Moroccan tradition and hospitality, which should always be accepted by guests as a sign of appreciation and respect to the host.(当你访问摩洛哥时，你很难错过杰出的茶文化，这是摩洛哥热情好客的重要组成部分。在任何聚会、谈判或销售产品之前，主人和客人之间总是要准备一壶薄荷茶。这是摩洛哥传统和好客的一种表现，客人应该始终接受这一点，以此表示对主人的赞赏和尊重)”可知，在Morocco，谈判前可以端上一杯薄荷茶。故选D项。 23．推理判断题。根据第一段“While tea may have originated in Asia, now there are many countries all around the world that have tea woven into their food culture and traditions. This is one of the very special parts of tea as it has a way of connecting people all over the world in different ways and ceremonies that finally all results in a group of people sitting together and enjoying a cup of tea.(虽然茶可能起源于亚洲，但现在世界上许多国家都将茶融入了他们的饮食文化和传统中。这是茶的一个非常特别的部分，因为它有一种方式将世界各地的人们以不同的方式和仪式联系在一起，最终导致一群人坐在一起享受一杯茶)”以及纵观全文可知，本文主要介绍了茶文化的起源以及不同国家的茶文化特色，包括中国、日本、英国和摩洛哥的茶文化，所以和文化有关，应是有可能来自Cultural Corner。故选C项。 B Many of China’s ancient architectural treasures crumbled into dust before Lin Huiyin and Liang Sicheng began documenting them in the 1930s. The husband and wife team were among the first preservationists to operate in China, and by far the best known. Their efforts have since inspired generations of people to speak out for architecture threatened by the rapid development. Becoming China’s best architectural historians was no easy accomplishment. The buildings they wanted to save were centuries old, often located in distant parts of the country. In many cases, they had to journey through dangerous conditions in the Chinese countryside to reach them. Exploring China’s remote areas during the 1930s meant traveling muddy, poorly maintained (养护) roads by mule (骡子), or on foot. Inns (客栈) were often dirty, food could be polluted, and there was always risk of violence from rebels, soldiers and robbers. Their greatest discovery was the Temple of Buddha’s Light, in Wutai County, Shanxi Province. The breathtaking wooden temple was rebuilt in 857 A．D．, making it the oldest building known in China at the time. Liang and Lin crawled into the temple’s most forbidding, forgotten areas to determine its age, including one hideaway inhabited by thousands of bats and millions of bedbugs, covered in dust and littered with dead bats. “In complete darkness and among awful smell, hardly breathing, with thick masks covering our noses and mouths, we measured, drew, and photographed with flashlights for several hours. When at last we came out to take a breath of fresh air, we found hundreds of bedbugs in our bag. We ourselves had been badly bitten. Yet the importance and unexpectedness of our find made those the happiest hours of my years hunting for ancient architecture.” Liang wrote of the experience in an account included in the book “Liang and Lin: Partners in Exploring China’s Architectural Past”. 24．What does the underlined word “crumbled” mean in Paragraph 1? A．Were stolen. B．Fell down. C．Looked old. D．Closed up. 25．On their way to the ancient buildings in the 1930s, what risks did Liang and Lin mainly face? A．Transport and accommodations. B．Personal safety and weather. C．Communication with locals and food. D．Road conditions and funds. 26．What can we infer from Liang’s words in the text? A．They considered their work was the most important. B．They were well-equipped before entering the temple. C．They found some surprising things in the temple. D．The conditions inside the temple were common to them. 27．Which of the following is the best title for the passage? A．Tough Conditions in China’s Remote Areas B．Partners in Documenting China’s Architectural Treasures C．The Reason for Liang and Lin’s Exploration D．The Difficulties China’s Architectural Historians Are Facing 【答案】24．B 25．A 26．C 27．B 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了梁思成和林徽因夫妇为保护中国古建筑而做出的努力，他们的努力提高了公众保护历史建筑的意识。 24．词句猜测题。根据第一段中划线单词下文“The husband and wife team were among the first preservationists to operate in China, and by far the best known. Their efforts have since inspired generations of people to speak out for architecture threatened by the rapid development. (这对夫妇是中国最早采取行动的文物保护者之一，也是迄今为止最有名的一对。他们的努力激励了一代又一代的人为受到发展冲击的建筑大声疾呼。)”可知，梁思成和林徽因夫妇是最早采取行动的文物保护者之一，他们使得人们开始有意识保护古建筑，由此可推知，在他们开始保护古建筑之前，许多古建筑没有得到保护已经坍塌，所以梁思成和林徽因夫妇才开始保护古建筑，由此可知，“Many of China’s ancient architectural treasures crumbled into dust before Lin Huiyin and Liang Sicheng began documenting them in the 1930s. (在林徽因和梁思成于20世纪30年代开始记录它们之前，中国的许多古代建筑瑰宝就已经crumbled into dust。)”中的划线单词crumbled意思为“坍塌，倒塌”与B项“fell down(倒塌)”意思一致。故选B。 25．细节理解题。根据第二段中“In many cases, they had to journey through dangerous conditions in the Chinese countryside to reach them. Exploring China’s remote areas during the 1930s meant traveling muddy, poorly maintained (养护) roads by mule (骡子), or on foot. Inns (客栈) were often dirty, food could be polluted, and there was always risk of violence from rebels, soldiers and robbers.(在许多情况下，他们不得不穿越中国农村的危险条件才能到达那里。在20世纪30年代，探索中国的偏远地区意味着要骑骡子或步行在泥泞、维护不善的道路上行走。客栈通常很脏，食物可能被污染，而且总是有来自叛乱分子、士兵和强盗的暴力风险。)”可知，在20世纪30年代，在梁思成和林徽因两人在前往古建筑的路上，主要面临的风险在交通和住宿以及来自叛乱分子、士兵和强盗的暴力风险所造成的安全问题；由此可知，A选项“Transport and accommodations.(交通和住宿)”正确。故选A。 26．推理判断题。根据最后一段中““In complete darkness and among awful smell, hardly breathing, with thick masks covering our noses and mouths, we measured, drew, and photographed with flashlights for several hours. When at last we came out to take a breath of fresh air, we found hundreds of bedbugs in our bag. We ourselves had been badly bitten. Yet the importance and unexpectedness of our find made those the happiest hours of my years hunting for ancient architecture.” Liang wrote of the experience in an account included in the book “Liang and Lin: Partners in Exploring China’s Architectural Past”.(‘在完全黑暗和难闻的气味中，我们几乎无法呼吸，用厚厚的口罩遮住鼻子和嘴巴，我们用手电筒测量，画画，拍照，持续了几个小时。当我们终于出来呼吸新鲜空气时，我们发现包里有数百只臭虫。我们自己也被咬得很厉害。然而，我们的发现的重要性和出乎意料，使那些时间成为我多年来寻找古代建筑最快乐的时光。’梁在《梁与林：探索中国建筑历史的伙伴》一书中记述了这段经历。)”可知，尽管在这个寺庙中他们经受了很多困难，但是他们在寺庙里发现非常重要且出乎意料；由此可知，他们在寺庙里发现了令人惊奇的东西。故选C。 27．主旨大意题。根据第一段“Many of China’s ancient architectural treasures crumbled to dust before Lin Huiyin and Liang Sicheng began documenting them in the 1930s. The husband and wife team were among the first preservationists to operate in China, and by far the best known. Their efforts have since inspired generations of people to speak out for architecture threatened by the rush toward development.(在林徽因和梁思成于20世纪30年代开始记录之前，中国许多古代建筑珍品已经化为灰烬。这对夫妇是中国最早采取行动的文物保护者之一，也是迄今为止最有名的一对。他们的努力激励了一代又一代的人为受到发展冲击的建筑大声疾呼。)”以及下文对梁思成和林徽因考察古建筑的艰辛以及成就的详细阐述可知，文章主要讲述了梁思成和林徽因夫妇为保护中国古建筑而做出的努力，他们的努力提高了公众保护历史建筑的意识。B选项“Partners in Documenting China’s Architectural Treasures(一对记录中国建筑珍品的伴侣)”能够概括文章主旨，与文章最后一句中所提到的书“Liang and Lin: Partners in Exploring China’s Architectural Past”相呼应”，因此B选项适合作为最佳标题。故选B。 C We will soon enter the Year of the Dragon. Or should that be the Year of the Loong? That is a question that has aroused heated debate. Influenced by Greek mythology (神话), the dragon is often the keeper of treasure, so the dragon is often a symbol of greed and destruction. In addition to the image of “Saint George slaying the dragon” in the medieval manuscripts of Europe, there is also the Great Red Dragon in the Christian Bible’s Book of Revelation, which refers to Satan and the end times. For Europeans, dragon is usually a monster keeping distances away from people, a symbol of darkness. With four legs and two huge black wings, they can spit fire or even poison gas out of their mouth, with great destructive power. Such symbolic resonance (共鸣) can be seen in the enduring appeal of dragons in Western popular culture today where they are important parts of fantasy literature, films, video games, and TV shows, often representing a mix of awe-inspiring and fearsome qualities that put them at the heart of struggles between good and evil. Contrary to the evil image of European dragons, Chinese dragons traditionally symbolize different meanings. The loong has been a central symbol in Chinese culture for thousands of years, and its origins can be traced back to early Chinese civilization through mythology, folklore and religious beliefs. They even had jobs, as in Chinese legends dragons were appointed head of the four seas where they must keep order, as well as the job of bringing rain to the earth. Since loong were believed to have control over natural phenomena such as rain, storms and water, and were associated with the life-giving properties of water and the fertility of the land, loong became symbols of strength and good fortune, and they became associated with balance, harmony and the natural order of the universe. The differences in perception of the mythical creatures in China and the West are rooted in their different cultural values. Thus the answer to the question at the beginning is clear: Whether or not to use loong instead of dragon is not important. What is important is that as we enter a new lunar year people globally appreciate the cultural values embodied in such Chinese symbols as loong. 28．Which of the following best describes Westerners’ attitude towards the dragon? A．Lovable. B．Frightened. C．Acceptable. D．Favorable. 29．How is the whole passage organized? A．By presenting numbers. B．By telling ancient stories. C．By making a definition. D．By making comparison. 30．What makes loong symbols of strength and good fortune in Chinese culture? A．The long history of loong. B．The various jobs loong had. C．People’s positive beliefs in loong. D．Loong’s ability to control nature. 31．What does the author want to convey in the last paragraph? A．People only in China appreciate the cultural values. B．Different cultures have different understanding of dragon. C．It’s important to identify the differences between dragon and loong. D．Everyone expects to enter a new lunar loong year. 【答案】28．B 29．D 30．C 31．B 【导语】这是一篇议论文。文章主要以“龙年”的表达为话题，对比讨论了中西方文化中对龙的理解，揭示了其根本区别在于不同的文化价值赋予龙不同的认知。 28．推理判断题。根据第二段“...which refers to Satan and the end times(……指的是撒旦和末日)”，“For Europeans, dragon is usually a monster keeping distances away from people, a symbol of darkness.(对欧洲人来说，龙通常是远离人类的怪物，是黑暗的象征)”以及“With four legs and two huge black wings, they can spit fire or even poison gas out of their mouth, with great destructive power.(它们有四条腿和两个巨大的黑色翅膀，可以从嘴里喷出火焰甚至毒气，具有巨大的破坏力)”可知，龙在西方人的认知中形象是黑暗的化身，具有巨大的破坏力。由此推知，在西方人看来，龙是令人恐惧的。故选B项。 29．推理判断题。根据全文结构可以看出， 作者第一段“We will soon enter the Year of the Dragon. Or should that be the Year of the Loong? That is a question that has aroused heated debate.(我们很快就要进入龙年（the Year of the Dragon）了。或者应该是龙年（the Year of the Loong）？那是一个引起了激烈争论的问题)”提出设问, “龙年”英语表述有“dragon”和“loong”的区别；在第二“For Europeans, dragon is usually a monster…(对欧洲人来说，龙通常是怪物)”、第三段“Such symbolic resonance can be seen in the enduring appeal of dragons in Western popular culture today(这种象征性的共鸣可以从龙在当今西方流行文化中持久的吸引力中看到)”描写了西方人眼中“龙”的形象特征；而第四段“Contrary to the evil image of European dragons, Chinese dragons traditionally symbolize different meanings.(与欧洲龙的邪恶形象相反，中国龙在传统上象征着不同的含义)”描写中国人之于“龙”的看法。最后一段“The differences in perception of the mythical creatures in China and the West are rooted in their different cultural values.(中西方对神话生物认知的差异，根源在于不同的文化价值观)”总结文化差异性表现在对于龙的理解。由此推知，全文通过对比的手法， 阐述中西方文化之于“龙”的认知的不同。故选D项。 30．细节理解题。文章倒数第二段中“Since loong were believed to have control over natural phenomena such as rain, storms and water, and were associated with the life-giving properties of water and the fertility of the land, loong became symbols of strength and good fortune, and they became associated with balance, harmony and the natural order of the universe.(由于龙被认为可以控制雨、风暴和水等自然现象，并与水的生命属性和土地的肥沃有关，龙成为力量和好运的象征，它们与平衡、和谐和宇宙的自然秩序联系在一起)”可知，长久以来龙被认为可以控制雨、风暴和水等自然现象，并与水的生命属性和土地的肥沃有关，因此人们对于龙有着美好的寓意。故选C项。 31．主旨大意题。通读最后一段内容可知，首句内容“The differences in perception of the mythical creatures in China and the West are rooted in their different cultural values.(中西方对神话生物认知的差异，根源在于不同的文化价值观)”揭示了该段的主旨，即，不同文化的文化价值造就了不同的“龙”认知。因此，在最后一段中，作者想要表达的是不同的文化对龙有不同的理解。故选B项。 D Lawrence Ganti from the US has lived in Switzerland, Japan, and India. When his work with Merck, a company that develops treatments for many of the world’s most challenging diseases, first took him to Japan, he was struck by how comfortable his Japanese co- workers were with silence. During meetings in the US, people are usually uneasy with quiet and fill a quiet period with talk. Not so in Japan. “You don’t break the silence unless you have something important to say,” says Ganti. Surprisingly, when he next lived in India, he found conversations were typically lively, loud and full of interruptions (打岔). “Silence is never expected,” he says. The Japanese value the building of trust and relationships, Ganti adds. In Japan, nothing might be achieved in the first meeting, and no real progress may be made until the parties sit down for a lunch or dinner. Ganti remembers greeting foreigners who flew to Japan with the intention of holding their meeting and flying out that same day. “It’s just a half- hour discussion,” they told him. He replied, “That half- hour discussion won’t go anywhere.” Cyrus Sabouri from New Jersey, the US, had similar experiences in the Middle East. He lives in Bahrain, where he works for American Express Middle East. “Meetings can require personal introductions, which often take up more of the meeting than the things to be discussed,” he says. He was frustrated by this custom when he first moved to the island nation. “You eventually learn that it is hard to draw the line between business and personal life,” he says. “Warm and friendly relationships can be the difference between a deal or no deal with the Bahraini.” Ganti’s current job with Merck takes him throughout Latin America. While each country presents its own cultural puzzle to figure out, Ganti has found that cultures have a lot in common. In many parts of Latin America, for instance, giving straight advice or criticism in conversation isn’t typical. To make a point, he did just that in meetings, and attendees were often shocked. “I’m usually sent to places where change is needed,” Ganti says. “You have to make changes.” 32．How do Indians differ from the Japanese according to Ganti? A．They dislike being interrupted. B．They seem nervous in business meetings. C．They easily accept silence. D．They usually talk excitedly. 33．What had the foreigners going to Japan expected according to paragraph 2? A．They would have a very interesting meeting. B．They could get their tasks done soon. C．They could leave Japan the next day. D．They would be invited to dinner. 34．What frustrated Sabouri when he first worked in Bahrain? A．Bahrainis value relationships very highly. B．There are a lot of long business meetings. C．Personal introductions are often ignored. D．Work is more important than life there. 35．The author writes the text mainly to ______. A．introduce his working experience in Latin America B．discuss American’s impression on Middle East C．talk about some cultural differences D．give some facts about Japanese manners 【答案】32．D 33．D 34．A 35．C 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要讲的是美国的Lawrence Ganti在日本、中东以及拉丁美洲所感受到的文化差异。 32．细节理解题。根据第一段的“When his work with Merck, a company that develops treatments for many of the world’s most challenging diseases, first took him to Japan, he was struck by how comfortable his Japanese co- workers were with silence.(当他在Merck工作时，第一次去日本时，他被日本同事对沉默的适应程度所震惊。Merck为世界上许多最具挑战性的疾病开发治疗方法。)”和“Surprisingly, when he next lived in India, he found conversations were typically lively, loud and full of interruptions (打岔).(令人惊讶的是，当他再次住在印度时，他发现谈话通常是活泼、大声和充满打断的。)”可知，印度人和日本人的不同在于印度人通常兴奋地交谈。故选D。 33．推理判断题。根据第二段的“In Japan, nothing might be achieved in the first meeting, and no real progress may be made until the parties sit down for a lunch or dinner.(在日本，第一次会谈可能一事无成，直到各方坐下来共进午餐或晚餐，才有可能取得真正的进展。)”可推知，去日本的外国人将被邀请共进晚餐。故选D。 34．细节理解题。根据倒数第二段的“He was frustrated by this custom when he first moved to the island nation. “You eventually learn that it is hard to draw the line between business and personal life,” he says. “Warm and friendly relationships can be the difference between a deal or no deal with the Bahraini.”(当他刚搬到这个岛国时，他对这种习俗感到沮丧。他说：“你最终会发现，很难在工作和个人生活之间划清界限。”“能否与Bahraini达成协议的关键可能是温馨友好的关系。”)”可知，当Sabouri第一次在Bahrain工作时，让他沮丧的是巴林人非常重视人际关系。故选A。 35．推理判断题。通读全文，尤其是第一段的“When his work with Merck, a company that develops treatments for many of the world’s most challenging diseases, first took him to Japan, he was struck by how comfortable his Japanese co- workers were with silence.(当他在Merck工作时，第一次去日本时，他被他的日本同事对沉默的适应程度所震惊。Merck为世界上许多最具挑战性的疾病开发治疗方法。)”，倒数第二段的““Meetings can require personal introductions, which often take up more of the meeting than the things to be discussed,” he says. He was frustrated by this custom when he first moved to the island nation. “You eventually learn that it is hard to draw the line between business and personal life,” he says. “Warm and friendly relationships can be the difference between a deal or no deal with the Bahraini.”(他表示：“会议可能需要进行个人介绍，这往往比要讨论的事情占用了更多的会议时间。”当他刚搬到这个岛国时，他对这种习俗感到沮丧。他说：“你最终会发现，很难在工作和个人生活之间划清界限。”“能否与Bahraini达成协议的关键可能是温馨友好的关系。”)”和最后一段的“In many parts of Latin America, for instance, giving straight advice or criticism in conversation isn’t typical.(例如，在拉丁美洲的许多地方，在谈话中直接给出建议或批评并不常见。)”可知，本文主要讲的是美国的Lawrence Ganti在日本、中东以及拉丁美洲所感受到的文化差异，因此作者写本文的目的是谈论文化差异。故选C。 第二节（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。 My Reverse (反向的) Culture Shock Language difficulties. Culture shock. Homesickness (乡愁). 36 But for me, returning home proved the hardest of all. After the experience of a year abroad, coming home can feel disappointing. Why was I feeling so disconnected? 37 I’d idealized (理想化) home in my mind. And I’d expected everything to remain exactly the same while I was gone. When I got back and the reality fell short of these ideals, I experienced what I’d call a reverse culture shock. The idea might seem a bit over the top, especially for exchange students who have only spent a year or less away from home. But as you live in a new culture, you quickly adapt to a different way of life; meanwhile, you think life at home is no different. 38 Some friends have been apart from each other while others have become closer together. When you arrive in an unknown place, it takes effort to adapt to your new environment. Your days are filled with new interests and busy schedule. 39 It seems strange to me that no one at university warns you about this beforehand. The feeling of disconnection can be hard to shake off. I kept wondering how long it would take to feel normal again. Getting a part-time job would eventually help relieve my own sense of disconnection. 40 Readjusting at home has been harder than life abroad, but I’m starting to find a new normal. A．However, everyone changes. B．I’d lost interest in everything at home. C．I realized I’d done two things while I was away. D．Spending more time with family and friends also helped. E．Most people experience these problems in their daily jobs. F．These are the things you might worry about before studying abroad. G．No surprise once the period is over, many exchange students feel at a loss. 【答案】36．F 37．C 38．A 39．G 40．D 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述作者经历的反向文化冲击。 36．根据上文“Language difficulties. Culture shock. Homesickness (乡愁). (语言的困难。文化冲击。乡愁。)”可知这些都是出国会遇到的问题，所以F选项“这些都是你出国留学之前可能会担心的事情。”符合题意，呼应上文。故选F。 37．下文“I’d idealized (理想化) home in my mind. And I’d expected everything to remain exactly the same while I was gone. (在我的脑海中，我一直把家理想化。我还以为我不在的时候一切都会和以前一样。)”可知这是在说在国外时做的两件事，C选项“我意识到我不在的时候做了两件事。”正好引出下文，符合题意，故选C。 38．根据上文“But as you live in a new culture, you quickly adapt to a different way of life; meanwhile, you think life at home is no different. (但是当你生活在一种新的文化中时，你很快就会适应一种不同的生活方式；与此同时，你认为家里的生活没有什么不同。)”和下文“Some friends have been apart from each other while others have become closer together. (一些朋友彼此疏远了，而另一些朋友却走得更近了。)”可知前面说觉得国内生活不会变，后又说朋友变了，所以A选项“然而，每个人都在变。”起到承上启下的作用，并和上文构成转折关系，故选A。 39．上文“When you arrive in an unknown place, it takes effort to adapt to your new environment. Your days are filled with new interests and busy schedule. (当你来到一个陌生的地方，你需要努力去适应新环境。你的生活充满了新的兴趣和繁忙的日程。)”，下文“It seems strange to me that no one at university warns you about this beforehand. (在我看来很奇怪，大学里没有人事先警告过你这件事。)”而G选项“毫无疑问，一旦学期结束，许多交换生感到不知所措。”和上文形成对比，并且下文中it指代的就是一旦学期结束，许多交换生感到不知所措这件事，符合题意，故选G。 40．根据上文“The feeling of disconnection can be hard to shake off. I kept wondering how long it would take to feel normal again. Getting a part-time job would eventually help relieve my own sense of disconnection. (这种与外界脱节的感觉很难摆脱。我一直在想要多久才能恢复正常。找一份兼职工作最终会帮助我减轻自己的疏离感。)”可推断下文应该是继续说怎样做去摆脱这种与外界脱节的感觉，所以D选项“花更多的时间和家人朋友在一起也有帮助。”符合题意，故选D。 第三部分 语言运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节 （共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 As my son and I were leaving for his basketball class, we found a cat sitting outside the door.

Moreover, when 56 (travel) through China, you’ll most likely pick up on a few differences in the way of eating food. For instance, soup in the West 57 (enjoy) generally as an appetizer (开胃菜), while the Chinese prefer to enjoy their soup at the end of a meal. You might also notice some distinct differences in meal preparation and cooking techniques.

If you’re looking to take it a step 59 (far), keep an eye out for cooking classes 60 (hold) by residents in their own homes. 61 it comes to traditional Chinese games, the Chinese have always been sociable people. Despite the country’s super technological advancement and the increasing 62 (popular) of personal electronic devices, the majority of Chinese would rather spend time socializing with others than sit alone at home.

I immediately hid it under my seat, hoping no one would take notice. Mom had really outdone herself with masala — our family’s all-time favorite dish back in India. But today, it wasn’t just about me and my lunch. A warm smile on his face, Ricky invited me, a new transfer student from India to New York city, for lunch. “Ava, come sit here!” Ricky called out, gesturing towards a vacant seat. As I made my way over, memories of those awkward lunchtimes when I studied in Kansas, one of the most conservative states, flooded back. I could still recall how everyone would wrinkle their noses and stare curiously when I unpacked my Indian food. It always made me feel like an outsider, like I didn’t belong. Therefore, before my first day in this school, I had demanded my mom pack “normal” western-style food for me. I still remembered the look on her face upon hearing it, as she signed in disappointment and confusion, “Isn’t there a moment when you feel proud of your origin?” That was hurting, but not more hurting than others’ giggles and whispers. Honestly, long queues were common in Indian restaurants in New York city, a cultural melting pot, but I wouldn’t take that risk. Unfortunately, this morning, Mom had forgotten to make sandwich or any “normal” food, so I had to bring leftovers from our dinner. At the thought of the possible oh-no-second (社死), I felt like being thrown into darkness. However, before I came back to reality, Ricky noticed my sneaking (躲躲藏藏). “What do you have for lunch?” he asked, his eyes twinkling with interest. I tried to brush it off (搪塞), claiming I wasn’t hungry. But Ricky wouldn’t let it go, and before I could protest, he had the lid of my lunchbox open and I prepared myself for such familiar responses as “Ew” or “What is that?” 注意： 1.续写词数应为150左右; 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 However, I did not get what I was expecting. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ After school, I found Mom preparing sandwich for tomorrow’s lunch. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】However, I did not get what I was expecting. Ricky took a deep breath, closed his eyes, and savored the aroma of the masala. Instead of the usual stares and whispers, there was only interest on Ricky’s face. His face lit up with a broad smile, asking, “You mum made masala for your lunch?” Before I could make a response, he added: “I could be dying of envy! You know what, last Sunday, my parents and I queued up for three hours in harsh cold in fifth Avenue for the new India restaurant.” He enjoyed every bite, nodding his head in approval. It was a welcome change from the stares and whispers I had grown accustomed to. After school, I found Mom preparing sandwich for tomorrow’s lunch. I came over and asked if I could have palak paneer in my lunchbox, which made her a bit confused. Finally, I told her about my experience with Ricky and how he had enjoyed my food. Mom’s face lit up with joy. “I’m glad he liked it,” she said. “And I’m even happier that you’re starting to feel proud of your roots again.” She paused and looked at me seriously. “Your culture, your traditions, and your food are all a part of who you are.” I nodded, feeling a sense of relief wash over me. Mom’s words had given me the courage to embrace my identity and share my culture with others. 【导语】本文以午餐为线索展开，讲述了作者从印度转学到纽约，作为午餐，妈妈准备了他们家在印度一直以来最喜欢的菜——玛莎拉，但和其他同学的西餐不一样，其他同学感到很奇怪，作者感到自己被孤立了，所以要求妈妈为自己做西餐。结果一天妈妈忘记了做西餐，又做了玛莎拉，作者怕被其他同学看到，把午餐藏了起来。然而被同学Ricky发现了，Ricky打开了作者午餐盒的盖子，作者原想Ricky可能又是一番讨厌，结果这饭菜却是Ricky感兴趣，爱吃的，作者很高兴自己的饮食文化被同学认同，不再为自己的饭菜而尴尬了。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“然而，我没有得到我所预料的。”可知，第一段可描写Ricky的表现和作者的预料完全不同，他对玛莎拉很感兴趣。 ②由第二段首句内容“放学后，我发现妈妈正在为明天的午餐准备三明治。”可知，第二段可描写作者告诉妈妈自己的饭菜得到同学的认同，妈妈非常高兴。 2.续写线索：感兴趣——询问——喜欢吃——告知妈妈——高兴——感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①. 询问：ask/question ②. 告知：tell/inform 情绪类 ①. 兴趣：interest/taste ②. 高兴：happy/pleased/delighted 【点睛】[高分句型1].

This is one of the very special parts of tea as it has a way of connecting people all over the world in different ways and ceremonies that finally all results in a group of people sitting together and enjoying a cup of tea. Chinese tea culture Since China is viewed as the birthplace of tea, it is no wonder that Chinese tea culture is rich with history and tradition. Today, Chinese tea continues to be used in Chinese medicine and is commonly consumed on both casual and formal occasions both for personal enjoyment and to represent Chinese cultural traditions. Japanese tea culture Japan also has a long history with tea,especially Japanese Matcha, which is a kind of ground green tea that is commonly used in Japanese tea ceremonies and only in recent years became popular in Western culture. British tea culture When many people think about tea, British tea culture is what comes to mind. A hot cup of English Breakfast or Earl Grey tea serves with a little milk and a biscuit in the afternoon as a pick-me-up for the day. Even though tea may not be native to England, this British tea tradition is still going strong today. Moroccan tea culture When you visit Morocco, it is hard to miss the outstanding tea culture that is such a large part of Moroccan hospitality. Before any gathering, negotiation, or sale of a product, a pot of mint tea is always prepared and served among the host and guests. This is an expression of Moroccan tradition and hospitality, which should always be accepted by guests as a sign of appreciation and respect to the host. 21．Why can tea find its way into various food cultures? A．It originates in Asia. B．It forms different ceremonies. C．It gets people connected easily. D．It allows people to sit together. 22．In which country may a cup of mint tea be served before negotiation? A．China. B．Japan. C．Britain. D．Morocco. 23．In which column (专栏) on social media may the text appear? A．Healthy You. B．Social Insight. C．Cultural Corner. D．Itchy Feet Travel. B Many of China’s ancient architectural treasures crumbled into dust before Lin Huiyin and Liang Sicheng began documenting them in the 1930s. The husband and wife team were among the first preservationists to operate in China, and by far the best known. Their efforts have since inspired generations of people to speak out for architecture threatened by the rapid development. Becoming China’s best architectural historians was no easy accomplishment. The buildings they wanted to save were centuries old, often located in distant parts of the country. In many cases, they had to journey through dangerous conditions in the Chinese countryside to reach them. Exploring China’s remote areas during the 1930s meant traveling muddy, poorly maintained (养护) roads by mule (骡子), or on foot. Inns (客栈) were often dirty, food could be polluted, and there was always risk of violence from rebels, soldiers and robbers. Their greatest discovery was the Temple of Buddha’s Light, in Wutai County, Shanxi Province. The breathtaking wooden temple was rebuilt in 857 A．D．, making it the oldest building known in China at the time. Liang and Lin crawled into the temple’s most forbidding, forgotten areas to determine its age, including one hideaway inhabited by thousands of bats and millions of bedbugs, covered in dust and littered with dead bats. “In complete darkness and among awful smell, hardly breathing, with thick masks covering our noses and mouths, we measured, drew, and photographed with flashlights for several hours. When at last we came out to take a breath of fresh air, we found hundreds of bedbugs in our bag. We ourselves had been badly bitten. Yet the importance and unexpectedness of our find made those the happiest hours of my years hunting for ancient architecture.” Liang wrote of the experience in an account included in the book “Liang and Lin: Partners in Exploring China’s Architectural Past”. 24．What does the underlined word “crumbled” mean in Paragraph 1? A．Were stolen. B．Fell down. C．Looked old. D．Closed up. 25．On their way to the ancient buildings in the 1930s, what risks did Liang and Lin mainly face? A．Transport and accommodations. B．Personal safety and weather. C．Communication with locals and food. D．Road conditions and funds. 26．What can we infer from Liang’s words in the text? A．They considered their work was the most important. B．They were well-equipped before entering the temple. C．They found some surprising things in the temple. D．The conditions inside the temple were common to them. 27．Which of the following is the best title for the passage? A．Tough Conditions in China’s Remote Areas B．Partners in Documenting China’s Architectural Treasures C．The Reason for Liang and Lin’s Exploration D．The Difficulties China’s Architectural Historians Are Facing C We will soon enter the Year of the Dragon. Or should that be the Year of the Loong? That is a question that has aroused heated debate. Influenced by Greek mythology (神话), the dragon is often the keeper of treasure, so the dragon is often a symbol of greed and destruction. In addition to the image of “Saint George slaying the dragon” in the medieval manuscripts of Europe, there is also the Great Red Dragon in the Christian Bible’s Book of Revelation, which refers to Satan and the end times. For Europeans, dragon is usually a monster keeping distances away from people, a symbol of darkness. With four legs and two huge black wings, they can spit fire or even poison gas out of their mouth, with great destructive power. Such symbolic resonance (共鸣) can be seen in the enduring appeal of dragons in Western popular culture today where they are important parts of fantasy literature, films, video games, and TV shows, often representing a mix of awe-inspiring and fearsome qualities that put them at the heart of struggles between good and evil. Contrary to the evil image of European dragons, Chinese dragons traditionally symbolize different meanings. The loong has been a central symbol in Chinese culture for thousands of years, and its origins can be traced back to early Chinese civilization through mythology, folklore and religious beliefs. They even had jobs, as in Chinese legends dragons were appointed head of the four seas where they must keep order, as well as the job of bringing rain to the earth. Since loong were believed to have control over natural phenomena such as rain, storms and water, and were associated with the life-giving properties of water and the fertility of the land, loong became symbols of strength and good fortune, and they became associated with balance, harmony and the natural order of the universe. The differences in perception of the mythical creatures in China and the West are rooted in their different cultural values. Thus the answer to the question at the beginning is clear: Whether or not to use loong instead of dragon is not important. What is important is that as we enter a new lunar year people globally appreciate the cultural values embodied in such Chinese symbols as loong. 28．Which of the following best describes Westerners’ attitude towards the dragon? A．Lovable. B．Frightened. C．Acceptable. D．Favorable. 29．How is the whole passage organized? A．By presenting numbers. B．By telling ancient stories. C．By making a definition. D．By making comparison. 30．What makes loong symbols of strength and good fortune in Chinese culture? A．The long history of loong. B．The various jobs loong had. C．People’s positive beliefs in loong. D．Loong’s ability to control nature. 31．What does the author want to convey in the last paragraph? A．People only in China appreciate the cultural values. B．Different cultures have different understanding of dragon. C．It’s important to identify the differences between dragon and loong. D．Everyone expects to enter a new lunar loong year. D Lawrence Ganti from the US has lived in Switzerland, Japan, and India. When his work with Merck, a company that develops treatments for many of the world’s most challenging diseases, first took him to Japan, he was struck by how comfortable his Japanese co- workers were with silence. During meetings in the US, people are usually uneasy with quiet and fill a quiet period with talk. Not so in Japan. “You don’t break the silence unless you have something important to say,” says Ganti. Surprisingly, when he next lived in India, he found conversations were typically lively, loud and full of interruptions (打岔). “Silence is never expected,” he says. The Japanese value the building of trust and relationships, Ganti adds. In Japan, nothing might be achieved in the first meeting, and no real progress may be made until the parties sit down for a lunch or dinner. Ganti remembers greeting foreigners who flew to Japan with the intention of holding their meeting and flying out that same day. “It’s just a half- hour discussion,” they told him. He replied, “That half- hour discussion won’t go anywhere.” Cyrus Sabouri from New Jersey, the US, had similar experiences in the Middle East. He lives in Bahrain, where he works for American Express Middle East. “Meetings can require personal introductions, which often take up more of the meeting than the things to be discussed,” he says. He was frustrated by this custom when he first moved to the island nation. “You eventually learn that it is hard to draw the line between business and personal life,” he says. “Warm and friendly relationships can be the difference between a deal or no deal with the Bahraini.” Ganti’s current job with Merck takes him throughout Latin America. While each country presents its own cultural puzzle to figure out, Ganti has found that cultures have a lot in common. In many parts of Latin America, for instance, giving straight advice or criticism in conversation isn’t typical. To make a point, he did just that in meetings, and attendees were often shocked. “I’m usually sent to places where change is needed,” Ganti says. “You have to make changes.” 32．How do Indians differ from the Japanese according to Ganti? A．They dislike being interrupted. B．They seem nervous in business meetings. C．They easily accept silence. D．They usually talk excitedly. 33．What had the foreigners going to Japan expected according to paragraph 2? A．They would have a very interesting meeting. B．They could get their tasks done soon. C．They could leave Japan the next day. D．They would be invited to dinner. 34．What frustrated Sabouri when he first worked in Bahrain? A．Bahrainis value relationships very highly. B．There are a lot of long business meetings. C．Personal introductions are often ignored. D．Work is more important than life there. 35．The author writes the text mainly to ______. A．introduce his working experience in Latin America B．discuss American’s impression on Middle East C．talk about some cultural differences D．give some facts about Japanese manners 第二节（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。 My Reverse (反向的) Culture Shock Language difficulties. Culture shock. Homesickness (乡愁). 36 But for me, returning home proved the hardest of all. After the experience of a year abroad, coming home can feel disappointing. Why was I feeling so disconnected? 37 I’d idealized (理想化) home in my mind. And I’d expected everything to remain exactly the same while I was gone. When I got back and the reality fell short of these ideals, I experienced what I’d call a reverse culture shock. The idea might seem a bit over the top, especially for exchange students who have only spent a year or less away from home. But as you live in a new culture, you quickly adapt to a different way of life; meanwhile, you think life at home is no different. 38 Some friends have been apart from each other while others have become closer together. When you arrive in an unknown place, it takes effort to adapt to your new environment. Your days are filled with new interests and busy schedule. 39 It seems strange to me that no one at university warns you about this beforehand. The feeling of disconnection can be hard to shake off. I kept wondering how long it would take to feel normal again. Getting a part-time job would eventually help relieve my own sense of disconnection. 40 Readjusting at home has been harder than life abroad, but I’m starting to find a new normal. A．However, everyone changes. B．I’d lost interest in everything at home. C．I realized I’d done two things while I was away. D．Spending more time with family and friends also helped. E．Most people experience these problems in their daily jobs. F．These are the things you might worry about before studying abroad. G．No surprise once the period is over, many exchange students feel at a loss. 第三部分 语言运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节 （共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 As my son and I were leaving for his basketball class, we found a cat sitting outside the door.

Moreover, when 56 (travel) through China, you’ll most likely pick up on a few differences in the way of eating food. For instance, soup in the West 57 (enjoy) generally as an appetizer (开胃菜), while the Chinese prefer to enjoy their soup at the end of a meal. You might also notice some distinct differences in meal preparation and cooking techniques. Therefore, cooking classes are becoming an 58 (increase) popular activity among those interested in learning more about China’s culture through its cuisine. If you’re looking to take it a step 59 (far), keep an eye out for cooking classes 60 (hold) by residents in their own homes. 61 it comes to traditional Chinese games, the Chinese have always been sociable people. Despite the country’s super technological advancement and the increasing 62 (popular) of personal electronic devices, the majority of Chinese would rather spend time socializing with others than sit alone at home. From popular board games like Go (围棋) and Chinese chess to kids’ games like Chinese jump rope, China offers 63 (vary) options to keep people busy. Most locals are more than happy to share their traditions 64 foreign visitors, so don’t be shy to ask the next time you go for 65 walk through the park. 第四部分 写作（共两节, 满分40分） 第一节（满分15分） 66．最近你市发现了一处唐文化遗址。针对是否应当开发，人们展开了激烈的讨论。假如你是一名记者，请就此写一篇报道。 赞成开发 应开发利用以吸引更多的游客来旅游观光 反对开发 应保持原样，妥善保护，以免遭人为破坏 参考词汇: 开发 (explore) ；旅游业 (tourism) 注意: 词数 80 左右。 ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第二节（满分25分） 67．阅读下面材料, 根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段, 使之构成一篇完整的短文。续写的词数应为150左右。 As I unzipped my lunchbox, the whole place was turned into a spicy curry (咖喱) dream. I immediately hid it under my seat, hoping no one would take notice. Mom had really outdone herself with masala — our family’s all-time favorite dish back in India. But today, it wasn’t just about me and my lunch. A warm smile on his face, Ricky invited me, a new transfer student from India to New York city, for lunch. “Ava, come sit here!” Ricky called out, gesturing towards a vacant seat. As I made my way over, memories of those awkward lunchtimes when I studied in Kansas, one of the most conservative states, flooded back. I could still recall how everyone would wrinkle their noses and stare curiously when I unpacked my Indian food. It always made me feel like an outsider, like I didn’t belong. Therefore, before my first day in this school, I had demanded my mom pack “normal” western-style food for me. I still remembered the look on her face upon hearing it, as she signed in disappointment and confusion, “Isn’t there a moment when you feel proud of your origin?” That was hurting, but not more hurting than others’ giggles and whispers. Honestly, long queues were common in Indian restaurants in New York city, a cultural melting pot, but I wouldn’t take that risk. Unfortunately, this morning, Mom had forgotten to make sandwich or any “normal” food, so I had to bring leftovers from our dinner. At the thought of the possible oh-no-second (社死), I felt like being thrown into darkness. However, before I came back to reality, Ricky noticed my sneaking (躲躲藏藏). “What do you have for lunch?” he asked, his eyes twinkling with interest. I tried to brush it off (搪塞), claiming I wasn’t hungry. But Ricky wouldn’t let it go, and before I could protest, he had the lid of my lunchbox open and I prepared myself for such familiar responses as “Ew” or “What is that?” 注意： 1.续写词数应为150左右; 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 However, I did not get what I was expecting. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ After school, I found Mom preparing sandwich for tomorrow’s lunch. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 原创精品资源学科网独家享有版权，侵权必究！1 学科网（北京）股份有限公司1 / 23 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$学校 班级 姓名 准考证号 密 封 线 坊 45 IAJIBJICJIDI 44 [AJIBI[CIIDI [AJIBIICIIDI [AJ[BIICJID] 41 [AJIBIIC]ID] [AJIBIICJIDI [AJ[BIIC]ID] [AJIBIICIIDI [AJIBIICIIDI [AJIBJICIIDI [AIBIIC] IAJIBICI [AJIBIICI IAJIBIICI (OO UI W N 3 OO W N 50 [AJ[B]ICI[D] 49 [AJIBJICI[D] 48 [A]IB]IC]ID] 46 [AJIBIICJ[D] 30 [AJ[B]ICI[D] 29 [AJ[BJ[CI[DI 28 [AJ[BJ[CJ[D] 27 IAJIBI[CIID] 26 [AJ[BJ[CI[DI 10 [A][B]IC] 9 [AJ[BIICI 8 [AJIBIIC] 7 [AJIBIICI 6 IAJ[BIIC] 00 00 分 必 5 IAJIBIICIIDI 54 IAJ[BI[CIIDI 3 IAJIBIICIIDI IAJ[B][C]ID] 51 IAI[BJICIIDI 35 [AJ[BI[CIIDI 34 IAJ[B][CI[D] 33 [AJ[BI[CIID] 32 [AI[BI[CI[DI 31 [A][BI[C][D] 15 [A][BI[C] 14 [AI[B][C] 13 [A][B][C] 1 IAJIB]IC] 11 [A][B][C] 海考障（请用2B铝生摄装） 入。二粮喷标 0 著茶 ·银背盗Un EE5 40 [AJIBJICI[DI[EJ[FIIG] 39 [AJIBJICJ[DI[EI[FI[GI 38 [AJIBI[CI[DIIEJIFIIGI 36 [AJIBJICIIDIIEI[FIIGI 20 [AJ[BI[C] 19 [AJIBJIC] 18 [A][B][CI 17 [AJIBIICI 16 [AJIB][C] ■ 请在各题目的鉴题区域内作答，超出黑色矩形边框跟定区域的答案无效！ 第四部分写作（共两节，满分40分） 第一节（满分15分） 喝 第二节（满分25分） Paragraph 1: Paragraph 2: 嫦 请在各题目的答题区域内作瓷，出思色炬形边框限定区域或的答案无效！ 培第2贞共2页）
