According to the traditional Chinese custom, 2024 is the year of Loong (Dragon). Dragons are considered as lucky animals in China. They control water and rain. But do you know more about the dragons?
There are some differences between Chinese dragons and Western dragons. First of all, the color of Chinese dragons is gold or red. Western dragons are usually black or gray. Second, Chinese dragons can fly without wings, while Western dragons need wings to fly. Third, Chinese dragons control water and rain to help people with farming, while Western dragons can breathe fire and hurt villagers.
Dragons also play an important role in Chinese festivals. On the Lantern Festival, people hang bright dragon lanterns to celebrate the coming spring. Dragon dance has a long history and has already been a popular activity since the Song Dynasty. Dragon boat races are held on the fifth day of the fifth lunar month—Dragon Boat Festival. The Dragon Boat Festival has now become a popular international festival.
In the Chinese zodiac (生肖), dragon is one of people’s favorite animals. When Chinese people name newborn babies, “龙” is a Chinese character that is often chosen, especially for boys, as they are expected to be full of energy. “lóng mǎ” is a horse with the head and claws (爪) of a dragon in ancient Chinese stories. “lóng mǎ jīng shén” (the spirit of a dragon horse) is considered as a kind of spirit of the Chinese nation, which is full of energy and is always on the move.
In a word, dragons are a valuable part of Chinese culture. We have a duty to spread the culture of Chinese dragons to let more people know China better in the future.
8. According to Paragraph 2, what are the differences between Chinese dragons and Western dragons?
①Colors of the body. ②Ways of flying. ③How to treat people. ④Numbers of claws.

9. Why is “龙” a popular name choice for newborn babies in Chinese culture?
A. Because it may bring good luck and richness to the family.
B. Because it is a tradition passed down from ancient times.
C. Because it reflects that babies are expected to be full of energy.
10. Which of the following can best explain “lóng mǎ jīng shén” according to the passage?
A. “lóng mǎ jīng shén” is often used to describe boys.
B. “lóng mǎ jīng shén” is always positive and powerful.
C “lóng mǎ jīng shén” comes from ancient Chinese festivals.
11. The writer would most probably talk about ________ after the last paragraph.
A. how we can spread the culture of Chinese dragons
B. what the most important culture of Chinese dragons is
C. why Chinese dragons develop differently from Western dragons
【答案】8. A 9. C 10. B 11. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了中国龙和西方龙差异,并讲述了龙在中国文化中的意义。
【8题详解】

Third, Chinese dragons control water and rain to help people with farming, while Western dragons can breathe fire and hurt villagers.”可知,中国龙和西方龙在身体颜色、飞行方式和对待人的方式上有差异。故选A。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据“When Chinese people name newborn babies, ‘龙’ is a Chinese character that is often chosen, especially for boys, as they are expected to be full of energy.”可知,当中国人给新生儿取名时,“龙”是一个经常被选择的汉字,因为他们被期望充满活力。故选C。

【导语】本文介绍了中国非物质文化遗产之一——湖南花鼓戏,包括其在湖南文化生活中的重要地位、历史起源、与民众生活的联系、传播形式、艺术家的贡献以及其与湖南方言的关联,强调了花鼓戏作为传统优秀文化应被保护和传播的意义。
【26题详解】
句意:它是湖南许多人文化生活中最重要的部分之一。one of the +形容词最高级+可数名词复数“最……的……之一”,固定搭配,句中“most important”是形容词最高级,前面需加定冠词the。故填the。
【27题详解】
句意:花鼓戏的最早记载出现在清朝。根据“in the Qing Dynasty”可知,句子描述的是过去发生的事情,时态应用一般过去时,谓语动词appear“出现”需用其过去式appeared。故填appeared。
【28题详解】
句意:花鼓戏源自湖南人民的日常生活,并滋养着他们的文化生活。in +地点“在……(地方)”,介词短语;句中“Hunan”是地点,因此这里需用介词in,指“在湖南”。故填in。
【29题详解】
句意:当你去湖南旅游时,经常能看到老老少少都喜欢唱花鼓戏。enjoy doing sth.“喜欢做某事”,固定搭配,因此这里需用sing“唱歌”的动名词形式singing。故填singing。
【30题详解】
句意:此外,花鼓戏还在各种活动中上演,比如划船和节日庆典。空前different kinds of“不同种类的”后接可数名词复数,因此这里需用名词activity的复数形式activities。故填activities。
【31题详解】
句意:在歌舞表演中,那些老艺术家和年轻艺术家不仅放声歌唱,还向人们传递生活的快乐和活力。not only... but also...“不仅……而且……”,固定搭配。故填but。
【32题详解】
句意:这群优秀的艺术家也为花鼓戏带来了新的生命力,并尽力让这种中国传统文化传播到更广阔的世界。根据下文“and tries”可知,句子描述的是客观事实,时态需用一般现在时;主语“the group of great artists”的核心词“group”为单数,因此谓语动词需用三单形式brings,并与“tries”形成并列关系。故填brings。
【33题详解】
句意:这群优秀的艺术家也为花鼓戏带来了新的生命力,并尽力让这种中国传统文化传播到更广阔的世界。根据空后“than before”可知,此处需用形容词wide的比较级形式wider“更广阔的”,在句中作定语,修饰名词“world”。故填wider。
【34题详解】
句意:如果你独自听花鼓戏,可能不会听得很明白。by oneself“独自、亲自”,介词短语;句子主语是“you”,结合上下文来看,此处是泛指“任何一个人” (即“如果你自己去听花鼓戏”),强调的是个体情况,而非“你们所有人”,因此这里需用反身代词yourself“你自己”。故填yourself。
【35题详解】
句意:那高涨而充满活力的音调,以及响亮而清晰的嗓音,都完美地展现了湖南人民的精神风貌。分析句子结构可知,此处需用complete的副词形式completely“完全地,彻底地”,在句中作状语,修饰动词“express”。故填completely。

根据前文“people found Tom did well in taking care of plants.”可知,本句为一般过去时。When“当……时候”,引导时间状语从句;people“人们”,从句的主语;have difficulty in doing“做某事有困难”,have的过去式为had;growing“种植”,动名词,作宾语;plants“植物”,复数名词,作宾语;they“他们”,主句的主语;would“会”;ask sb for help“向某人求助”,Tom“汤姆”,人名,作ask的宾语。故填When people had difficulty in planting plants, they would ask Tom for help.
【40题详解】
He“他”,主语;never“从未”,表示否定;forgot“忘记”,谓语;the experience of“……的经历”,名词短语;helping“帮助”,动名词,作宾语;the为定冠词,表示特指;old“年老的”,形容词,作定语;woman“妇女”,名词,作宾语;and“和”,表示并列;continued“继续”,谓语;spreading“传播”,动名词作宾语;kindness“善意”,不可数名词,作宾语。故填他从未忘记帮助老妇人的经历并继续传播善意。

Leo is a person who loves painting, but an accident made his finger joints (关节) hurt. The doctor told him that if he continued to paint, it might cause more pain to his fingers, so he had to give up this hobby.
Leo was really upset, but his friend Mike encouraged him to try something new and find a new hobby. “But I don’t know what to do.

Although Leo could no longer paint, he found a new hobby and became successful in this new field.

According to the traditional Chinese custom, 2024 is the year of Loong (Dragon). Dragons are considered as lucky animals in China. They control water and rain. But do you know more about the dragons?
There are some differences between Chinese dragons and Western dragons. First of all, the color of Chinese dragons is gold or red. Western dragons are usually black or gray. Second, Chinese dragons can fly without wings, while Western dragons need wings to fly. Third, Chinese dragons control water and rain to help people with farming, while Western dragons can breathe fire and hurt villagers.
Dragons also play an important role in Chinese festivals. On the Lantern Festival, people hang bright dragon lanterns to celebrate the coming spring.

The Dragon Boat Festival has now become a popular international festival.
In the Chinese zodiac (生肖), dragon is one of people’s favorite animals.

In a word, dragons are a valuable part of Chinese culture. We have a duty to spread the culture of Chinese dragons to let more people know China better in the future.

B. “lóng mǎ jīng shén” is always positive and powerful.
