【导语】本文讲述了齐桓公为招揽贤才在宫殿前点燃火炬,却一年都无人前来。一位村民来访,称自己会背乘法表,齐桓公觉得可笑,村民则解释贤才不来是因不确定君主是否善待他们,若君主能善待自己,贤才自会前来。齐桓公听后善待村民,随后贤才果然陆续而来。
【32题详解】
句意:他在宫殿前点燃了一支明亮的火炬,让所有人都知道他的想法。
in front of在……前面;away from远离;above在……上方。根据“lit a bright torch... his palace to let everyone know his idea”可知,火炬应放在宫殿“前面”才能让大家看到。故选A。
【33题详解】
句意:然而,火炬燃烧了整整一年,却没有人来。
somebody某人;nobody没有人;everybody每个人。根据“However”表转折及后文“Nobody came”可知,尽管火炬燃烧了一年,但“没有人”前来。故选B。
【34题详解】
句意:他说他会背乘法表。
make制作;remember记住;buy买。根据“because you remember the multiplication table”可知,村民说自己能“记住”乘法表。故选B。
【35题详解】
句意:齐桓公听到这话,觉得很可笑。
peaceful和平的;modern现代的;funny可笑的。根据“How could you hope to see the king just because you remember the multiplication table?”可知,齐桓公认为仅会背乘法表就想见国王是“可笑的”。故选C。
【36题详解】
句意:村民回答说:“火炬点燃后没人来,是因为所有的贤才都不确定国王是否会善待他们。”
after 在……之后;if如果;once一旦。根据“the torch was lighted”与“Nobody came”的时间关系可知,是火炬点燃“之后”没人来。故选A。
【37题详解】
句意:村民回答说:“火炬点燃后没人来,是因为所有的贤才都不确定国王是否会善待他们。”
strong强壮的;talented有才能的;interesting有趣的。根据“Qi Huan Gong wanted talented men”可知,齐桓公要招揽的是“有才能的”人。故选B。
【38题详解】
句意:所以他们不敢来。
fear害怕;decide决定;hope希望。根据“aren’t sure if our king will treat them well”可知,贤才因不确定而“害怕”前来。故选A。
【39题详解】
句意:《诗经》上说:“古代聪明的君主常常去找在森林里伐木的农夫征求他们的意见。”
money钱;trees树;advice意见。根据“ask for their...”及“get together the good ideas”可知,君主向农夫征求的是“意见”。故选C。
【40题详解】
句意:这样他就能汇集民众的好想法。
I我;it它;he他。根据“The clever king of ancient times”可知,此处指代君主,应用“he”,符合指代关系。故选C。
【41题详解】

One day, the king said to me, “Gulliver, I invite you to watch an important performance called Rope Dancing.” In the competition, people had to dance on a thin and high rope. Each dancer tried to jump higher than the others. I had never seen such a dangerous sport. The king said, “I will give the best jobs in my country to the ones who jump the highest.” “What a strange way to choose who will work for the country!” I thought. Then, as the king watched, I fixed my handkerchief (手绢) under the rope but above the ground. Any dancer who fell would land on the handkerchief and not get hurt. “Thanks a lot!” said Lilliputians who joined in the game. In the competition, one very skilled performer held on to the rope and flipped his body right over it. Later, the king made this man one of his main advisers.
The king and I met often and he seemed to enjoy our conversations. One day, I said again, “Your Majesty, please let me go.” This time he answered, “I have talked to my advisers. We agree that you have been good to our people ...”

Do you know the erhu? It’s a two-stringed Chinese violin with a history dating back to the Tang Dynasty (618-907). If you ask any Chinese music fan about this traditional instrument, they will probably tell you something about Erquan Yingyue. This famous piece was written and played about 90 years ago by Abing, a blind street musician. Many years later, his hometown Wuxi has become a main production center of the instrument.
Erhu, one of the most famous traditional musical instruments in the southern Yangtze River area, has a deep connection with Meicun in Wuxi. Ever since Meicun began making the erhu in 1965, more and more people have spent most of their time making the erhu there. So far, Meicun has trained many erhu makers and continues to be a protector of its musical form. In fact, over the past century, more than half of China’s top erhu artists have come from Wuxi.
Meicun erhu-making shows both tradition and skills. As one of the erhu makers introduced, “Erhu-making involves several processes, with more than 100 steps. Each step is highly connected.” Now, the famous “Meicun brand” has at least 18 main groups producing more than 50,000 erhus yearly. Today, Meicun erhu-making tradition connects the past and future, while musicians play the Meicun erhus, sharing China’s music with listeners everywhere.

【73题详解】
表格中“about 90 years ago”是时间,对应名曲《二泉映月》创作的时间信息。故填When。
【74题详解】
文中“Erhu...has a deep connection with Meicun in Wuxi”说明二胡和无锡梅村有深厚联系。故填Meicun in Wuxi。
【75题详解】
根据文中“Many years later, his hometown Wuxi has become a main production center of the instrument.”可知,这里用现在完成时体现无锡成为二胡主要生产中心的结果。故填has become/has been。
【76题详解】
根据文中“Meicun erhu-making tradition connects the past and future, while musicians play the Meicun erhus, sharing China’s music with listeners everywhere.”能看出是在说梅村二胡制作传统的意义、重要性等。故填meaning/importance / value。

I hoped to be free one day, so I was nice to the Lilliputians. Day by day, they stopped being afraid of me. Sometimes the children even played games in my hair.
One day, the king said to me, “Gulliver, I invite you to watch an important performance called Rope Dancing.” In the competition, people had to dance on a thin and high rope. Each dancer tried to jump higher than the others. I had never seen such a dangerous sport. The king said, “I will give the best jobs in my country to the ones who jump the highest.” “What a strange way to choose who will work for the country!” I thought. Then, as the king watched, I fixed my handkerchief (手绢) under the rope but above the ground. Any dancer who fell would land on the handkerchief and not get hurt. “Thanks a lot!” said Lilliputians who joined in the game. In the competition, one very skilled performer held on to the rope and flipped his body right over it. Later, the king made this man one of his main advisers.

Do you know the erhu? It’s a two-stringed Chinese violin with a history dating back to the Tang Dynasty (618-907). If you ask any Chinese music fan about this traditional instrument, they will probably tell you something about Erquan Yingyue. This famous piece was written and played about 90 years ago by Abing, a blind street musician. Many years later, his hometown Wuxi has become a main production center of the instrument.
Erhu, one of the most famous traditional musical instruments in the southern Yangtze River area, has a deep connection with Meicun in Wuxi. Ever since Meicun began making the erhu in 1965, more and more people have spent most of their time making the erhu there. So far, Meicun has trained many erhu makers and continues to be a protector of its musical form. In fact, over the past century, more than half of China’s top erhu artists have come from Wuxi.
Meicun erhu-making shows both tradition and skills. As one of the erhu makers introduced, “Erhu-making involves several processes, with more than 100 steps. Each step is highly connected.” Now, the famous “Meicun brand” has at least 18 main groups producing more than 50,000 erhus yearly. Today, Meicun erhu-making tradition connects the past and future, while musicians play the Meicun erhus, sharing China’s music with listeners everywhere.
