In the early Tang Dynasty, it was introduced to Japan and Korea, so it was called the "Tang Umbrella". Later oil paper umbrellas were spread to other Asian countries, such as Vietnam, Thailand and Laos, and each had its own style. However, as steel-ribbed (钢骨的) umbrellas appeared in the last century, the hand-made oil paper umbrellas became less used in daily life. They were turned into decorative artifacts (装饰性工艺品). Yuhang in Hangzhou is known for making oil paper umbrellas for more than 230 years. They are mainly made of skin paper, bamboo, and a coating of Tung oil. They need to take more than 70 steps to make, including making bamboo ribs, pasting paper and painting patterns. It takes at least a week to make per umbrella. In 2008, these umbrellas were added to Intangible Cultural Heritage List (非物质文化遗产名录) of China. A young man called Liu Weixue learned the traditional art of making Yuhang oil paper umbrellas from his grandfather. "I want to bring the art to life," Liu said. He improved the umbrellas to win the hearts of young people. As the traditional paper was easy to break, he started to use a kind of thicker paper. In a test, his umbrellas were opened and closed 1,000 times without breaking. He used a kind of lighter bamboo to make the umbrellas weigh less. Now Liu hopes the art can be passed on. He goes to local schools to teach students. He also goes to events in different places to promote the art. 1. What is Paragraph 1 mainly about? A. The history of oil paper umbrellas. B. The styles of oil paper umbrellas. C. The design of oil paper umbrellas. D. The ways of using oil paper umbrellas. 2. What is an oil paper umbrella mainly made of according to the passage? A.

Originating (起源) from songs, Huaguxi dates back to as early as the Qing Dynasty. At that time, the Huaguxi players were mostly farmers. They dressed up in colourful clothes with their faces painted, singing and dancing along the street. It was popular in the countryside, leading to the development of Huaguxi as a theatrical form. The interesting story with songs and dance began during the early 19th century. At that time, there were only two roles: chou (a man clown) and dan (a young girl), both played by a man. In the 1860s, a new role, sheng (a handsome young man), came into Huaguxi and the performance had developed a lot. Women players were allowed in the early 20th century. The early Huaguxi didn't last long, and the performances were mostly related to the life of the farmers. In the late 19th and 20th centuries, some Huaguxi performance groups began to move to Changsha, the capital of Hunan. At that time, Huaguxi lasted for about two hours. Stories also went beyond activities of daily life. Huaguxi has developed quickly since 1949. The most typical Hunan Huaguxi has been provided with about 300 kinds of melodies (曲调). Moreover, a large number of traditional works have been adapted. At the same time, plenty of modern dramas have been created. Huaguxi has been experiencing improvement with the help of the artists who love Chinese culture. 1. Where did Huaguxi start? 2. Was Huaguxi popular in the countryside during the Qing Dynasty? 3. When were women players allowed to play in Huaguxi? 4. How long did Huaguxi last in the late 19th and 20th centuries? 5. Who pushed for the development of Huaguxi? 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ Reading(Ⅱ) (限时:35分钟) 基础练 一、根据句意及所给的汉语提示写出单词 1.To our surprise, he ______ (成功地) passed a series of tests and became a student pilot. 2.We should try to avoid ______ (控制) our children too much and give them more freedom. 3. ______ (传统的) silk is really popular in some foreign countries now. 4.The house was made of ______ (石头). 5.A bright moving ______ (物体) appeared in the sky at sunset. 1. successfully：“成功地”修饰动词“passed”，用副词形式“successfully”。 2. controlling：“avoid doing sth.”表示“避免做某事”，“控制”是“control”，所以填“controlling”。 3. Traditional：“传统的”修饰名词“silk”，首字母大写，填“Traditional”。 4. stones：“石头”是可数名词，这里用复数形式“stones”表示泛指。 5. object：“物体”是“object”，前面有“A”修饰，用单数形式。 二、选用方框内所给短语的正确形式填空 each time　show an interest in　be known for without boundaries　make music 1.It is possible for us to make friends on the Internet ______. 2.The city ______ its long history. 3.______ I meet him, I will say hello to him. 4.Tom always ______ outer space and dreams of becoming an astronaut. 5.My job now is to ______ for some TV plays. 1. without boundaries：句意为“对我们来说，在网上毫无界限地交朋友是可能的”，“without boundaries”表示“毫无界限地”。 2. is known for：“be known for”表示“因……而闻名”，主语“The city”是第三人称单数，一般现在时中be动词用“is”。 3. Each time：“Each time”引导时间状语从句，表示“每次”，符合“每次我见到他，我都会向他问好”的语境。 4. shows an interest in：“show an interest in”表示“对……感兴趣”，主语“Tom”是第三人称单数，一般现在时中动词用“shows”。 5. make music：“make music”表示“创作音乐”，“to”后用动词原形。 三、将下列句子译成英文 1.汤姆考试又不及格，尽管他尽了最大的努力。 2.他对英语有兴趣。 3.我们将帮助在两个村庄之间建造一座桥梁。 4.她过去常常熬夜，但现在不这样了。 5.作为教师，我必须严格要求学生。 1. Tom failed the exam again though he tried his best. 2. He shows an interest in English. 3. We will help build a bridge between the two villages. 4. She used to stay up late, but she doesn't do that now. 5. As a teacher, I must be strict with students. 能力练 四、单项填空 1.On March 15, World Consumer Rights Day, we received plenty of complaints.
