As with all symbols, these can bring about great positive (积极的) parts into our lives. By understanding their meaning, we think about the desired (渴望的) part each symbol represents. The crane is a legend (传说) in China for being the prince with feathers on earth. Next to (仅次于) the phoenix (凤凰), the crane is the Chinese favourite bird symbol. The crane is the ancient symbol for long life because it can live for a long time. In many legends, the spirits ride on cranes, which are also said to take the souls (灵魂) of the dead people to heaven. This symbol means a lot of gold, making the goldfish a popular symbol in Chinese culture. One of the most popular New Year’s pictures is a child holding a large goldfish and a flower, which brings both wealth and harmony. A goldfish embroidered (刺绣) on a bag or a shirt is a sure way to bring enough energy into your life. This Chinese animal symbol translates into the bird of joy. It is believed that when the magpie nests in your house, it brings much cause for celebration and many happy occasions (场合). Those people who wish to live a happy life in a new place will do well to have this symbol in their lives, as it attracts the settling (安居) energies into our lives. What’s more, the magpie is a powerful symbol to attract happiness with marriage and children. A picture of a rooster stands for a wish for advancement (晋升) because the rooster's crest (冠) sounds similar to the word “官” in Chinese. More importantly, legend has it that the Heavenly Rooster of Dusu Mountain was crowing (啼叫) loudly and making all the roosters on earth crow along with it. This crowing would drive away all evil spirits. 56. What is a fact about the crane? A. It’s the princess of all animals on earth. B. It will live for quite a long time. C. It’s the Chinese favourite bird symbol. D. It can take people to heaven. 57. Which brings a lot of wealth and energy? A. The crane. B. The goldfish. C. The magpie. D. The rooster. 58. The passage is most likely to be found in ________ A. a culture column (专栏) B. a fashion magazine C. a storybook D. a science report B On Thursday, May 29, Chen Yaowu took a special train from Xi’an to Almaty, the largest city in Kazakhstan. It’s the first China-Central Asia train carrying cultural exchanges (交流). Chen is one of the 234 passengers. “It’s my first visit to Kazakhstan. I never thought I would take such a special train,” Chen said. He pointed out that this visit was an important chance for him to introduce traditional Chinese culture. “I hope we have more such exchanges.” The train left Xi’an around Thursday noon and will arrive in Almaty on Saturday. It will leave Almaty on June 5 and return to Xi’an on June 7, completing a 10-day round trip. The journey marks the cultural exchanges of five countries. Among the passengers are artists and performers. They will join all kinds of activities in Kazakhstan. After arriving in Almaty, they will be welcomed with fun performances and local specialities. According to Kazakhstan's report, China is one of their most important tourism (旅游) markets. More and more Chinese go there on vacation. 59. What does Chen think of the train? A. It’s interesting. B. It’s special. C. It’s comfortable. D. It’s exciting. 60. When will the train arrive in Almaty? A. On May 29. B. On May 31. C. On June 5. D. On June 7. 61. Which of the following is TRUE according to the text? A. Chen might be a doctor. B. The passengers will mainly travel. C. The train ticket is too expensive. D. The passengers will introduce Chinese culture. C Many Chinese people will wonder what presents to get for their mothers on Mother’s Day, but not many know Mother’s Day is actually a festival from foreign countries. Mother’s Day started in America and was gradually accepted by the Chinese in the 1980s. Why does a foreign festival become popular in China? That’s because traditional Chinese culture always encourages love between parents and children. For example, the story of “Tasting Medicine for Mother” tells us the filial (子女的) love of Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty. His mother was sick. He often stayed up at her bedside and cared for her day and night. He tasted the medicine first before she drank it. The subject of “mother love” is also repeated in many Chinese ancient poems (诗), like Song of the Parting Son (《游子吟》) by Meng Jiao, a poet of the Tang Dynasty. Now this touching poem is still a must in the school textbooks. Children in China grow up with the education of filial love. On special days, people often use flowers to express love. People think carnations (康乃馨) are the perfect flowers for mothers, but few of them know that China has its own flower for mothers—the tiger lily. Love for mothers can have different ways of expression. What matters most is love, not the festival itself. What mothers truly want is just a simple expression of love from their children. 62. When was Mother’s Day gradually accepted by the Chinese? A. In the 1980s. B. In the 1970s. C. In the 1960s. D. In the 1890s. 63. Why does Mother’s Day become popular in China? A. Because children grow up with the education of filial love. B. Because traditional Chinese culture always encourages love between parents and children. C. Because children in China think it’s a fun holiday. D. Because children in China think it is important to express themselves. 64. How do people feel about the poem Song of the Parting Son? A. Touching. B. Touched. C. Sorry. D. Regretful. 65. What is China’s own flower for mothers? A. Carnations. B. Roses. C. The tiger lily. D. Sunflower. D Almost all cultures celebrate the end of one year and the beginning of another in some ways. Different cultures celebrate the beginning of a new year in different ways, and at different times on the calendar. In Western countries, people usually celebrate New Year at midnight on December 31st—January 1st. People may go to parties, sometimes dressed in formal (正式的) clothes, and they may drink champagne (香槟) at midnight. During the first minute of the new year, people cheer and wish each other happiness for the year ahead. But some cultures prefer to celebrate the New Year by waking up early to watch the sunrise. They welcome the new year with the first light of the sunrise. Many cultures also do special things to get rid of (摆脱) bad luck at the beginning of a new year. For example, in Ecuador, families make a big doll from old clothes. The doll is filled with old newspapers and firecrackers. At midnight, these dolls are burned to show the bad things from the past year are gone and the new year can start afresh (重新). Other common traditions to keep away bad luck in a new year include throwing things into rivers or the ocean, or saying special things on the first day of the new year. Other New Year traditions are followed to bring good luck in the new year. One widespread Spanish tradition for good luck is to eat grapes on New Year’s Day. The more grapes a person eats, the more good luck the person will have in the year. In France, people eat pancakes for good luck at New Year. In the United States, some people eat black-eyed peas for good luck—but to get good luck for a whole year you have to eat 365 of them! 66. The reading is mainly about ________. A. the meaning of “Happy New Year!” B. several different New Year traditions C. what to eat on New Year’s Day D. why people dress up nicely on New Year’s Day 67. In some cultures, people throw things into rivers or oceans to ________. A. bring good luck B. keep away bad luck C. forget everything D. plan for the next year 68. To have a happy new year ________. A. friends talk to each other in special ways B. families make big dolls filled with old clothes C. some people get up early to watch the sunrise D. Europeans eat 365 grapes on New Year’s Day 69. When eating black-eyed peas on New Year’s Day, people think ________. A. one pea brings one day of luck B. black-eyed peas are the best medicine C. the peas are too black and taste bad D. the peas are helpful to count numbers E Online eating shows are very popular. They are well-known all over the world. Because many people like watching this kind of shows. Some hosts become popular for their ability (才能) to eat lots of food. Some people don’t like these shows. While some hosts can eat so much food, some may fake it. They just show eating a lot of food, but in fact they throw it away later. Someone calls on people to stop wasting food. They guess that the world is facing the worst food shortage (短缺) in 50 years. Many videos stop showing food waste to call for an end to food waste, too. Research shows that people waste about 1.3 billion tons of food every year in the world. In China people waste about 35 million tons of food every year. Nowadays, some people are carrying out activities against wasting food. Some people call on people to eat safe food and stop wasting food. The owners of most large restaurants begin to control the number of dishes for their customers. In some places, the owners of the restaurants ask customers to take the “N-1 mode”. For example, a group of 10 people should order enough for nine people at first. More food is only brought to the table if they really need it. 70. The underlined word “fake” means ________ in Chinese. A. 坚持 B. 假装 C. 赞扬 D. 剥落 71. In the “N-1 mode”, how many people’s dishes should a group of 6 people order at first? A. 5 people’s dishes. B. 6 people’s dishes. C. 7 people’s dishes. D. 8 people’s dishes. 72. What’s the main idea of the passage? A. Online eating shows make hosts famous. B. Many countries are facing food shortage. C. People should stop wasting food. D. Restaurants offer better service to customers. F 阅读下面短文，并用英语回答问题（请注意每小题的词数要求）。 Artificial intelligence (AI) is growing rapidly. We are living in a world that depends more and more on AI. AI is a group of technologies that help machines get, understand and use information to do tasks. AI’s recent development has got a lot of social attention. Some people have welcomed AI because it makes things possible. For example, AI will have a big influence on areas like medicine and engineering. But this attention has also produced a lot of fear. Especially, many workers are worrying that AI could make them lose their jobs. According to a recent study, nearly five percent of jobs will disappear because of AI. In some industries, AI has already done the work that people used to do, such as assembling cars, digging coal and lifting goods. Self-driving cars and trucks controlled by AI will also take away the drivers’ jobs in the future. On the other hand, AI will also create many new jobs for people. More people will be needed to write programmes for AI systems and they will set up and work on them, too. Meanwhile, jobs that require feelings, excellent communication skills with people will not be replaced by AI. These include jobs in fields like teaching, nursing and personal training. AI is here. It is changing how people live and work in many ways. That makes AI important to watch, not to fear. 73. What is AI? (不超过10个词) ____________________________________________________ 74.

I have visited a place many times, but I may still get lost there the next time. Once on my way to work, I was stopped by a man. He asked me if I could tell him the way to the Friendship Building. I said, “sorry, I am a stranger here.” As I walked on only a few steps, I realized that he had asked the way to my workplace. I had no time to look for him because I had to meet someone at my office.

As with all symbols, these can bring about great positive (积极的) parts into our lives. By understanding their meaning, we think about the desired (渴望的) part each symbol represents. The crane is a legend (传说) in China for being the prince with feathers on earth. Next to (仅次于) the phoenix (凤凰), the crane is the Chinese favourite bird symbol. The crane is the ancient symbol for long life because it can live for a long time. In many legends, the spirits ride on cranes, which are also said to take the souls (灵魂) of the dead people to heaven. This symbol means a lot of gold, making the goldfish a popular symbol in Chinese culture. One of the most popular New Year’s pictures is a child holding a large goldfish and a flower, which brings both wealth and harmony. A goldfish embroidered (刺绣) on a bag or a shirt is a sure way to bring enough energy into your life. This Chinese animal symbol translates into the bird of joy. It is believed that when the magpie nests in your house, it brings much cause for celebration and many happy occasions (场合). Those people who wish to live a happy life in a new place will do well to have this symbol in their lives, as it attracts the settling (安居) energies into our lives. What’s more, the magpie is a powerful symbol to attract happiness with marriage and children. A picture of a rooster stands for a wish for advancement (晋升) because the rooster's crest (冠) sounds similar to the word “官” in Chinese. More importantly, legend has it that the Heavenly Rooster of Dusu Mountain was crowing (啼叫) loudly and making all the roosters on earth crow along with it. This crowing would drive away all evil spirits. 56. What is a fact about the crane? A. It’s the princess of all animals on earth. B. It will live for quite a long time. C.

Mother’s Day started in America and was gradually accepted by the Chinese in the 1980s. Why does a foreign festival become popular in China? That’s because traditional Chinese culture always encourages love between parents and children. For example, the story of “Tasting Medicine for Mother” tells us the filial (子女) love of Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty. His mother was sick. He often stayed up at her bedside and cared for her day and night. He tasted the medicine first before she drank it. The subject of “mother love” is also repeated in many Chinese ancient poems (诗), like Song of the Parting Son (《游子吟》) by Meng Jiao, a poet of the Tang Dynasty. Now this touching poem is still a must in the school textbooks. Children in China grow up with the education of filial love. On special days, people often use flowers to express love. People think carnations (康乃馨) are the perfect flowers for mothers, but few of them know that China has its own flower for mothers—the tiger lily. Love for mothers can have different ways of expression. What matters most is love, not the festival itself. What mothers truly want is just a simple expression of love from their children. 62. When was Mother’s Day gradually accepted by the Chinese? A. In the 1980s. B. In the 1970s. C. In the 1960s. D. In the 1890s. 63. Why does Mother’s Day become popular in China? A. Because children grow up with the education of filial love. B. Because traditional Chinese culture always encourages love between parents and children. C. Because children in China think it’s a fun holiday. D. Because children in China think it is important to express themselves. 64. How do people feel about the poem Song of the Parting Son? A. Touching. B. Touched. C. Sorry. D. Regretful. 65. What is China’s own flower for mothers? A. Carnations. B. Roses. C. The tiger lily. D. Sunflower. 【答案】62. A 63. B 64. B 65. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了母亲节起源于美国，20世纪80年代逐渐被中国人接受，分析其流行的原因是中国传统文化倡导亲子之爱，还提及中国的母亲之花是虎皮百合，强调对母亲的爱重在表达，而非节日形式本身。 【62题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Mother’s Day started in America and was gradually accepted by the Chinese in the 1980s.”可知，母亲节在20世纪80年代逐渐被中国人接受，故选A。 【63题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Why does a foreign festival become popular in China? That’s because traditional Chinese culture always encourages love between parents and children.”可知，母亲节在中国受欢迎是因为中国传统文化一直鼓励父母与孩子之间的爱，故选B。 【64题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Now this touching poem is still a must in the school textbooks.”可知，人们认为《游子吟》是一首感人的诗，即这首诗让人们感动，“touched”常用来形容人“感动的”，故选B。 【65题详解】 细节理解题。根据“but few of them know that China has its own flower for mothers—the tiger lily.”可知，中国代表母亲的花是萱草花，故选C。 D Almost all cultures celebrate the end of one year and the beginning of another in some ways. Different cultures celebrate the beginning of a new year in different ways, and at different times on the calendar. In Western countries, people usually celebrate New Year at midnight on December 31st—January 1st. People may go to parties, sometimes dressed in formal (正式的) clothes, and they may drink champagne (香槟) at midnight. During the first minute of the new year, people cheer and wish each other happiness for the year ahead. But some cultures prefer to celebrate the New Year by waking up early to watch the sunrise. They welcome the new year with the first light of the sunrise. Many cultures also do special things to get rid of (摆脱) bad luck at the beginning of a new year. For example, in Ecuador, families make a big doll from old clothes. The doll is filled with old newspapers and firecrackers. At midnight, these dolls are burned to show the bad things from the past year are gone and the new year can start afresh (重新). Other common traditions to keep away bad luck in a new year include throwing things into rivers or the ocean, or saying special things on the first day of the new year.

Self-driving cars and trucks controlled by AI will also take away the drivers’ jobs in the future. On the other hand, AI will also create many new jobs for people. More people will be needed to write programmes for AI systems and they will set up and work on them, too. Meanwhile, jobs that require feelings, excellent communication skills with people will not be replaced by AI. These include jobs in fields like teaching, nursing and personal training. AI is here.
