If you’d like to go sightseeing, the following World Heritage Sites may be your best choices.
Jiuzhaigou Valley Scenic and Historic Interest Area
Jiuzhaigou Valley, which lies in the northern part of Sichuan Province, China, reaches a height of more than 4,800 m, with a series of different forest ecosystems (生态系统). It’s particularly famous for its excellent waterfalls. About 140 kinds of birds live in the valley, as well as a number of endangered plants and animals, including the giant panda. Jiuzhaigou Valley was recognised as a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 1992.
Khami Ruins National Monument
The city of Khami, which developed after the capital of Great Zimbabwe had been given up in the mid-16th century, is of great archaeological (考古的) interest. The discovery of objects from Europe and China shows that Khami was a major centre for trade over a long period of time. It joined the World Heritage List in 1986.
Henderson Island
Henderson Island, which lies in the eastern South Pacific, is one of the few atolls (环礁) in the world whose ecology has been untouched by humans. It’s particularly famous for the 10 plants and 4 birds that can only be seen on the island. It was recorded in the World Heritage List in 1988.
The Taj Mahal
The Taj Mahal is considered to be one of the most beautiful buildings in the world and the finest example of the late style of Indian architecture. It was built by the emperor Shah Jehan, who ruled India in the 17th century. It was in memory of his favourite wife who died in 1631. The architecture was given a World Heritage Status in 1983.

[B]
The Forbidden City is well known for being full of Chinese cultural and historical relics. But Masters in the Forbidden City (《我在故宫修文物》) does not just focus on the stories of the past. Instead, the documentary (纪录片) movie, which came out in Chinese cinemas on Dec.16, focuses on ordinary people — the restorers (修复者) of relics and antiquities (古董).
The stories are told at a slow and relaxed pace, reflecting the restorers’ work. Restoration of cultural relics and antiques can be time-consuming, and sometimes boring. Yet these restorers’ patience and peace of mind are especially precious in a society where everything is changing so fast.
“If you choose this job, you have to stand hours of work sitting on a chair. You need to be quiet and get used to being quiet,” says Wang Jin, an ancient clock repair expert.
A touching part of the documentary is the spirit of craftsmanship (工艺) in the restorers. “Years of humdrum work requires not only skill, but also faith and spirit,” China Daily commented, “Looking for preciseness (精确) and perfection, devoting yourself to work, patience, endurance (忍耐), loneliness...all these qualities come from the craftsman spirit.”
But unlike the popular idea of stuffy (古板的) experts who sit around being serious, the documentary shows off the enthusiasm of the restorers. They play their guitars and make jokes about each other after a long day of restoration work.
One scene that has been very popular with Internet users features a young female restorer riding a bicycle through the empty Forbidden City on a Monday. While she is doing this, a narrator says, “The last person to do this was Puyi, the last emperor of the Qing Dynasty.”
Masters in the Forbidden City has proved wrong many people’s ideas about antique restorers, allowing them to realize that they are not old, dull professors, but people in their 40s, 30s and even 20s who can be quite pleasing to the eye.
4 What’s the main purpose of the documentary Masters in the Forbidden City?
A. To show people how antiques are restored.
B. To display relics seldom seen by ordinary people.
C. To draw attention to Chinese antique restorers’ lives.
D. To praise the craftsmanship of Chinese antique restorers.
5. According to Wang Jin, we can learn that ________.
A. he often gets tired of his work
B. there is no need to do restoration work fast
C. antique restorers need to be patient and peaceful
D. it takes years of hard work to adapt to antique restoration
6. What does the underlined word “humdrum” probably mean?
A. Boring. B. Different. C. Relaxing. D. Unusual.
7. The bicycle-riding scene in the documentary is used to ________.
A. remind the audience of the last Qing emperor
B. show the strange hobbies of young antique restorers
C. encourage the young to consider a career in antique restoration in the future
D. show that the documentary breaks from the old, dull image of antique restorers
【答案】4. C 5. C 6. A 7. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了纪录片《我在故宫修文物》的主要内容,以及这部纪录片所体现出的文物修复者的工匠精神。
【4题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段中“Instead, the documentary (纪录片) movie, which came out in Chinese cinemas on Dec.16, focuses on ordinary people — the restorers (修复者) of relics and antiquities (古董). (相反,这部12月16日在中国影院上映的纪录片聚焦于普通人 —— 文物和古董的修复者。)”可知,纪录片《我在故宫修文物》的主要目的是让人们关注中国文物修复者的生活。故选C项。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段““If you choose this job, you have to stand hours of work sitting on a chair. You need to be quiet and get used to being quiet,” says Wang Jin, an ancient clock repair expert. (“如果你选择这份工作,你就得坐在椅子上工作几个小时。你需要安静,习惯安静,”古代钟表修复专家王津说。)”可知,王津认为文物修复者需要耐心和平和的心态。故选C项。
【6题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第二段中“Restoration of cultural relics and antiques can be time-consuming, and sometimes boring. (文物和古董的修复可能既耗时,有时又很枯燥。)”及第四段中划线词所在句“Years of humdrum work requires not only skill, but also faith and spirit (多年humdrum工作不仅需要技能,还需要信念与精神)” 可知,修复工作耗时且有时枯燥,“humdrum work”与前文“time-consuming, and sometimes boring”对应,应为“枯燥的工作”之意,与“Boring”同义。故选A项。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第三段中“But unlike the popular idea of stuffy (古板的) experts who sit around being serious, the documentary shows off the enthusiasm of the restorers. (但与人们普遍印象中那些古板、终日不苟言笑的专家不同,这部纪录片展现了修复师们的热情。)”和倒数第二段中“One scene that has been very popular with Internet users features a young female restorer riding a bicycle through the empty Forbidden City on a Monday. (其中一个深受网友喜爱的场景是,一位年轻的女修复师周一骑着自行车穿过空荡荡的故宫。)”以及最后一段中“Masters in the Forbidden City has proved wrong many people’s ideas about antique restorers, allowing them to realize that they are not old, dull professors, but people in their 40s, 30s and even 20s who can be quite pleasing to the eye. (《我在故宫修文物》证明了许多人对古董修复者的看法是错误的,让他们意识到古董修复者不是年老、乏味的教授,而是40多岁、30多岁甚至20多岁的人,他们可以很赏心悦目。)”可推知,纪录片中年轻女修复师在故宫骑自行车的场景,是为了打破大众对修复师“古板、沉闷”的固有印象,展现他们鲜活的一面。故选D项。
[C]
Many Westerners have the idea that everyone in China knows how to do kung fu. This is, of course, a silly belief. But it is true that kung fu is a big part of Chinese culture.
Like most people from the West, I was first introduced to kung fu through Hong Kong action films. Stars like Bruce Lee and Jackie Chan made kung fu popular in the Western world. The flashy and impressive performances they gave in films like Rumble in the Bronx and Enter the Dragon made them household names in the U.S. and elsewhere.
However, my own personal interest in kung fu was actually inspired by a hip hop group. Wu-Tang Clan, founded in the early 1990s in New York City, is one of the most influential hip hop groups in history.
In their songs, they sometimes mention philosophical concepts that come from Wudang quan—a classic Chinese martial art from which they take their name—and Shaolin Temple. I was just a teenager when I first started listening to Wu-Tang Clan—little did I know that I would actually end up living in China later in my life!
I myself do not practice kung fu. However, the concepts behind it are quite interesting to me. There is a Bruce Lee quote that I often think of when I'm struggling with challenges in life. “Be formless, shapeless, like water,” he once said. By this, he meant that you should be ready to adapt to and change your attitudes or beliefs when you face difficulties. I think this is a good way to deal with life.
8. What does “a silly belief” in Paragraph 1 refer to?
A. All Chinese people can do kung fu.
B. China is most famous for its kung fu.
C. Kung fu is a big part of Chinese culture.
D. Many Westerners admire kung fu.
9. What inspired the author's interest in kung fu?
A. Hong Kong action movies. B. A TV program about kung fu.
C. Kung fu stars in Hollywood. D. A US hip hop group.
10. What do we know about the Wu-Tang Clan?
A. They have Chinese culture in their songs.
B. They taught the author how to do Wudang quan.
C. They performed Chinese martial arts in the U.S.
D. They showed the author the way to live in China.
11 What can we learn from the last paragraph?
A. The author was sorry that he couldn't do kung fu.
B. The concepts of kung fu change over time.
C. The spirit of kung fu helps the author overcome difficulties.
D. Bruce Lee was the most popular martial arts master.
【答案】8. A 9. D 10. A 11. C
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇夹叙夹议的文体。开篇作者指出许多西方人以为每个中国人都会功夫这一错误观点,然后描述了自己如何了解和更懂中国功夫,并且把它的哲学理念融入到自己的生活中,当自己面对困难的时候,会用这些理念帮助自己解决问题。
【8题详解】
词义猜测题。从第一段中“Many Westerners have the idea that everyone in China knows how to do kung fu. This is, of course, a silly belief.” 可知,许多西方人以为每个中国人都会功夫,显而易见,这是观点是荒谬的。通过上下文,a silly belief 就是指everyone in China knows how to do kung fu。所以通过上文文语境可以判断出,划线词的意思是是“所有的中国人都会功夫。”故选A项。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。从第三段中“However, my own personal interest in kung fu was actually inspired by a hip hop group.” 可知,作者真正开始喜欢中国功夫是被a hip hop group激发的。故选D项。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。从第四段中“In their songs, they sometimes mention philosophical concepts that come from Wudang quan”可知,在一些hip hop的歌曲里,会涉及一些武当拳的哲学理念,比如第五段中的“Be formless, shapeless, like water,” 就是一种中国哲学理念。A. They have Chinese culture in their songs.(在他们歌曲里含有中国文化)符合以上说法。故选A项。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。从最后一段中“By this, he meant that you should be ready to adapt to and change your attitudes or beliefs when you face difficulties. I think this is a good way to deal with life.”( 他的意思是当你面对困难时,你应该准备好去适应和改变你的态度或信念。我认为这是处理生活的好方法。)可知,作者遇到困难的时候,觉得这种哲学理念是很好的处理方式。C. The spirit of kung fu helps the author overcome difficulties.(功夫的精神帮助作者克服困难)符合以上推断。故选C项。
【点睛】词义猜测题着重考查考生根据上下文猜测词义的能力,这也是一个从“已知”得出“未知”的过程,就是利用上下文已知的部分(尤其是该词或短语前后的句子)进行推理,有时候还需要依靠常识和经验来猜测词义。第一题就是词义猜测题,上文说“Many Westerners have the idea that everyone in China knows how to do kung fu.”得出的结论是,“This is, of course, a silly belief.”所以得出a silly belief 就是指everyone in China knows how to do kung fu。所以通过上下文语境可以判断出,划线词的意思是是“所有的中国人都会功夫。故选A项。
[D]
China is developing a system that recognizes individuals by their body shape and walking movements.Systems that recognize human faces are already being used to identify people in crowds or as a secure way to unlock personal devices.
The new systemknown as “gait recognition”,is already on trial by police on the streets of Beijing and Shanghai.The Chinese technology company Watrix developed the system.The company announced last month that it had raised $14.5 million to speed up the development and sale of the technology.
The system works in a similar way to face recognition.Cameras capture video of people in public places.Then,machines powered by artificial intelligence (AI) examine and study the video.
Facial recognition systems identify the shapes and expressions on a person’s face to identify them.Gait recognition uses a person’s body shape and their way of walking to identify them.The system records a person’s shape and movements and then creates a model of the way they walk.
Huang Yongzhen is a former researcher who co-founded Watrix in 2016.He told the Associated Press his system can identify people from up to 50 metres away.It is designed to work even when a person’s face is covered or hidden.Huang says his gait recognition system is correct 94 percent of the time.This is below the success rate of many face recognition systems.But he says the system can still be helpful to police and for other commercial purposes.He also believes the system can be effective when used together with face recognition.
Gait recognition is not new.The technology has been researched by scientists in Japan and Britain and by US defense officials for about 10 years.But attempts to sell the technology have been slow.One of the reasons the technology has not developed further is that the systems are more complex than facial recognition.
12. What can we learn from the first paragraph?
A. A system that can recognize human faces is around the corner.
B. It is tough to accurately follow a person in crowds.
C. A system that can identify a person by walking is being developed.
D. A new system that can check a body shape is under way.
13. What do you know about Watrix mentioned in the passage?
A. It has invented a lot of systems adopted by the police.
B. It has earned $14.5 million by inventing the system.
C. It has become famous for the face recognition system.
D. It has got well prepared for the new system.
14. Why is facial recognition similar to gait recognition?
A. Cameras catch video of people’s expressions.
B. A person’s body shape can be recognized very easily.
C. Cameras record video of a person in public places.
D. A person’s action will be sent to the police.
15. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?
A. Japan and Britain kept a secret about the system.
B. The systems of gait recognition are hard to develop.
C. Gait recognition will suffer a poor market very soon.
D. Almost no one understands how gait recognition runs.
【答案】12. C 13. D 14. C 15. B
【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇说明文。中国正在研发一款步态识别系统,该系统能通过体形和走路姿态来识别身份。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中的“China is developing a system that recognizes individuals by their body shape and walking movements.(中国正在开发一种通过体型和行走动作识别个人的系统。)”可知,目前正在开发通过身形和行走来识别身份的系统。故选C。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段的最后一句“The company announced last month that it had raised $14.5 million to speed up the development and sale of the technology.( 该公司上个月宣布,已经筹集了1450万美元,以加快这项技术的开发和销售)”可知,该公司已经为新系统做好充足的准备工作,故选D。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段的“The system works in a similar way to face recognition.Cameras capture video of people in public places.(该系统的工作原理与人脸识别相似。摄像机捕捉公共场所的人流视频)”可知,两种识别系统的相似之处是:系统的摄像机捕捉公共场所人们的视频。故选C。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段的“One of the reasons the technology has not developed further is that the systems are more complex than facial recognition(该技术没有进一步发展的原因之一是,该系统比面部识别更复杂)”可知,该系统因为其比较复杂而未能深入开发。故选B。

43. what 44. themselves

【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章介绍了作者在澳大利亚游历的亲身体验。
【36题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:澳大利亚位于赤道以南,常被非正式地称为Down Under。此处需用过去分词作后置定语修饰Australia,表示“位于……”。故填located。
【37题详解】
考查介词。句意:澳大利亚位于赤道以南,常被非正式地称为Down Under。固定搭配refer to...as...意为“把……称为……”,此处为被动语态,短语be referred to as表示“被称作”,符合语境。故填as。
【38题详解】
考查名词复数。句意:面包店、快餐店、肉店、咖啡馆和餐馆到处都提供世界上一些最顶级的食物体验。所给词为名词,应使用复数形式与后面的复数名词 fast-food joints, butcher shops 并列作主语,指多家店铺。注意句首字母大写。故填Bakeries。
【39题详解】
考查冠词。句意:面包店、快餐店、肉店、咖啡馆和餐馆到处都提供世界上一些顶级的食物体验。空后的形容词premier意为“最好的”,有最高级含义,形容词最高级前要用定冠词 the表特指,这里指“世界上最顶级的美食体验之一”。故填the。

考查副词。句意:一个熟练的演奏者可以通过不断地用鼻子吸气,同时用嘴呼气并吹进迪吉里杜管而演奏很长时间。此处需要一个副词修饰动词breathing,提示词continue为动词,continual是其形容词形式。故填continually。
【42题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:在游历了澳大利亚之后,就我个人而言,我最喜欢澳大利亚的是那里的人本身。该空所给动词在句中作介词after的宾语,应使用动名词形式。故填experiencing。

考查主语从句。句意:在经历了澳大利亚之后,就我个人而言,我最喜欢澳大利亚的是那里的人。该空需要一个连接词引导主语从句,并指代事物在从句中作like的宾语,应填what。故填what。
【44题详解】
考查代词。句意:在经历了澳大利亚之后,就我个人而言,我最喜欢澳大利亚的是那里的人本身。该空代词在句中是people的同位语,表示“本身”,应使用反身代词。故填themselves。
45题详解】
考查名词。句意:他们的友好和热情使我无论走到哪里都有宾至如归的感觉。提示词warm为形容词,该空需要一个名词与friendliness并列作主语,warm的名词形式拼写为warmth。故填warmth。

47. 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。
A rock as big as a house. That’s how the guide-book described Giant Rock. Dad said it was carried here by a glacier (冰川) millions of years ago.
I was finally going to see it, on snowshoes, with my cousin Andrew, my dad, and my uncle Don. I’d been snowshoeing before, and I liked traveling through deep snow alongside wild animal tracks (足迹).
At the parking area, after putting on our snowshoes, we studied the map. “We start here,” Dad said, “on the red trail (小路). Then we turn left onto the purple trail. That’s where Giant Rock is.”
“Remember to stick together, boys,” Uncle Don said.
The trail ran uphill alongside a stone wall. It was easy to follow because red markers were stuck onto the trees. At the top of the hill, we turned onto the purple trail. Dad and everyone else were in front and I was in the back. My cousin was faster than I was, but I managed to catch up.
The late afternoon sun felt warm, although it was going down. I saw lots of animal tracks — mostly rabbit prints. As we carried on up the trail. Andrew said what I’d been thinking, “Will we ever reach Giant Rock? Do you think your dad invented the idea of Giant Rock just to get us away from the TV for a while?”
I laughed. “You never know.”
Finally, we reached the top of a hill and saw the large rock sitting alone in the forest.
“It really is as big as a house!” Andrew said.
Standing in the rock’s long shadow (影子), I noticed the sun had got even lower.
“Let’s head back,” Dad said after a few minutes.
Soon we were on our way home. I was a little behind the group when I noticed a set of animal tracks. They were hard to see among the snowshoe prints, so I followed them off the trail for a closer look. They looked like tiny handprints and footprints. Must be a raccoon (浣熊) I thought, matching them to prints in my guide.
注意:续写词数应为150左右。
When I looked up, I suddenly realized I was totally alone.

Then I came to a crossroads.
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】参考范文
When I looked up, I suddenly realized I was totally alone. “Hey!” I shouted.“Where is everyone?” Nothing, just the sound of my own breathing. They couldn’t have gone far, I thought, stepping onto the trail. I would catch up with them if I hurried. It seemed to grow darker. I had no flashlight. No phone. My mind started to race. Soon it might be too dark to tell what color the markers were. I couldn’t just follow my own footsteps because there were so many tracks from other travelers.
Then I came to a crossroads. Which way should I turn? I pictured the map. To reach Giant Rock we had turned left onto the purple trail. To get back, I needed to do the opposite and turn right onto the red trail. If this didn’t work, I’d stay put and let my group find me. Then I heard someone calling and noticed the stone wall and the trail running alongside it. This had to be right. I went down the hill in large steps. Then I saw the parking area and my family! I shouted as I ran toward them.
【解析】

[A]
If you’d like to go sightseeing, the following World Heritage Sites may be your best choices.
Jiuzhaigou Valley Scenic and Historic Interest Area
Jiuzhaigou Valley, which lies in the northern part of Sichuan Province, China, reaches a height of more than 4,800 m, with a series of different forest ecosystems (生态系统). It’s particularly famous for its excellent waterfalls. About 140 kinds of birds live in the valley, as well as a number of endangered plants and animals, including the giant panda. Jiuzhaigou Valley was recognised as a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 1992.
Khami Ruins National Monument
The city of Khami, which developed after the capital of Great Zimbabwe had been given up in the mid-16th century, is of great archaeological (考古的) interest. The discovery of objects from Europe and China shows that Khami was a major centre for trade over a long period of time. It joined the World Heritage List in 1986.
Henderson Island
Henderson Island, which lies in the eastern South Pacific, is one of the few atolls (环礁) in the world whose ecology has been untouched by humans. It’s particularly famous for the 10 plants and 4 birds that can only be seen on the island. It was recorded in the World Heritage List in 1988.
The Taj Mahal
The Taj Mahal is considered to be one of the most beautiful buildings in the world and the finest example of the late style of Indian architecture. It was built by the emperor Shah Jehan, who ruled India in the 17th century. It was in memory of his favourite wife who died in 1631. The architecture was given a World Heritage Status in 1983.

The Forbidden City is well known for being full of Chinese cultural and historical relics. But Masters in the Forbidden City (《我在故宫修文物》) does not just focus on the stories of the past. Instead, the documentary (纪录片) movie, which came out in Chinese cinemas on Dec.16, focuses on ordinary people — the restorers (修复者) of relics and antiquities (古董).
The stories are told at a slow and relaxed pace, reflecting the restorers’ work. Restoration of cultural relics and antiques can be time-consuming, and sometimes boring. Yet these restorers’ patience and peace of mind are especially precious in a society where everything is changing so fast.
“If you choose this job, you have to stand hours of work sitting on a chair. You need to be quiet and get used to being quiet,” says Wang Jin, an ancient clock repair expert.
A touching part of the documentary is the spirit of craftsmanship (工艺) in the restorers. “Years of humdrum work requires not only skill, but also faith and spirit,” China Daily commented, “Looking for preciseness (精确) and perfection, devoting yourself to work, patience, endurance (忍耐), loneliness...all these qualities come from the craftsman spirit.”
But unlike the popular idea of stuffy (古板的) experts who sit around being serious, the documentary shows off the enthusiasm of the restorers. They play their guitars and make jokes about each other after a long day of restoration work.
One scene that has been very popular with Internet users features a young female restorer riding a bicycle through the empty Forbidden City on a Monday. While she is doing this, a narrator says, “The last person to do this was Puyi, the last emperor of the Qing Dynasty.”
Masters in the Forbidden City has proved wrong many people’s ideas about antique restorers, allowing them to realize that they are not old, dull professors, but people in their 40s, 30s and even 20s who can be quite pleasing to the eye.
4. What’s the main purpose of the documentary Masters in the Forbidden City?
A. To show people how antiques are restored.
B. To display relics seldom seen by ordinary people.
C. To draw attention to Chinese antique restorers’ lives.
D. To praise the craftsmanship of Chinese antique restorers.
5. According to Wang Jin, we can learn that ________.
A. he often gets tired of his work
B. there is no need to do restoration work fast
C. antique restorers need to be patient and peaceful
D. it takes years of hard work to adapt to antique restoration
6. What does the underlined word “humdrum” probably mean?
A. Boring. B. Different. C. Relaxing. D. Unusual.
7. The bicycle-riding scene in the documentary is used to ________.
A. remind the audience of the last Qing emperor
B. show the strange hobbies of young antique restorers
C. encourage the young to consider a career in antique restoration in the future
D. show that the documentary breaks from the old, dull image of antique restorers
[C]
Many Westerners have the idea that everyone in China knows how to do kung fu. This is, of course, a silly belief. But it is true that kung fu is a big part of Chinese culture.
Like most people from the West, I was first introduced to kung fu through Hong Kong action films. Stars like Bruce Lee and Jackie Chan made kung fu popular in the Western world. The flashy and impressive performances they gave in films like Rumble in the Bronx and Enter the Dragon made them household names in the U.S. and elsewhere.
However, my own personal interest in kung fu was actually inspired by a hip hop group. Wu-Tang Clan, founded in the early 1990s in New York City, is one of the most influential hip hop groups in history.
In their songs, they sometimes mention philosophical concepts that come from Wudang quan—a classic Chinese martial art from which they take their name—and Shaolin Temple. I was just a teenager when I first started listening to Wu-Tang Clan—little did I know that I would actually end up living in China later in my life!
I myself do not practice kung fu. However, the concepts behind it are quite interesting to me. There is a Bruce Lee quote that I often think of when I'm struggling with challenges in life. “Be formless, shapeless, like water,” he once said. By this, he meant that you should be ready to adapt to and change your attitudes or beliefs when you face difficulties. I think this is a good way to deal with life.
8. What does “a silly belief” in Paragraph 1 refer to?
A. All Chinese people can do kung fu.
B. China is most famous for its kung fu.
C. Kung fu is a big part of Chinese culture.
D. Many Westerners admire kung fu.
9. What inspired the author's interest in kung fu?
A. Hong Kong action movies. B. A TV program about kung fu.
C. Kung fu stars in Hollywood. D. A US hip hop group.
10. What do we know about the Wu-Tang Clan?
A. They have Chinese culture in their songs.
B They taught the author how to do Wudang quan.
C. They performed Chinese martial arts in the U.S.
D. They showed the author the way to live in China.
11. What can we learn from the last paragraph?
A. The author was sorry that he couldn't do kung fu.
B. The concepts of kung fu change over time.
C. The spirit of kung fu helps the author overcome difficulties.
D. Bruce Lee was the most popular martial arts master.
[D]
China is developing a system that recognizes individuals by their body shape and walking movements.Systems that recognize human faces are already being used to identify people in crowds or as a secure way to unlock personal devices.
The new system,known as “gait recognition”,is already on trial by police on the streets of Beijing and Shanghai.The Chinese technology company Watrix developed the system.The company announced last month that it had raised $14.5 million to speed up the development and sale of the technology.
The system works in a similar way to face recognition.Cameras capture video of people in public places.Then,machines powered by artificial intelligence (AI) examine and study the video.
Facial recognition systems identify the shapes and expressions on a person’s face to identify themGait recognition uses a person’s body shape and their way of walking to identify them.The system records a person’s shape and movements and then creates a model of the way they walk.
Huang Yongzhen is a former researcher who co-founded Watrix in 2016.He told the Associated Press his system can identify people from up to 50 metres away.It is designed to work even when a person’s face is covered or hidden.Huang says his gait recognition system is correct 94 percent of the time.This is below the success rate of many face recognition systems.But he says the system can still be helpful to police and for other commercial purposes.He also believes the system can be effective when used together with face recognition.
Gait recognition is not new.The technology has been researched by scientists in Japan and Britain and by US defense officials for about 10 years.But attempts to sell the technology have been slow.One of the reasons the technology has not developed further is that the systems are more complex than facial recognition.
12. What can we learn from the first paragraph?
A. A system that can recognize human faces is around the corner.
B. It is tough to accurately follow a person in crowds.
C. A system that can identify a person by walking is being developed.
D. A new system that can check a body shape is under way.
13. What do you know about Watrix mentioned in the passage?
A. It has invented a lot of systems adopted by the police.
B. It has earned $14.5 million by inventing the system.
C. It has become famous for the face recognition system.
D. It has got well prepared for the new system.
14. Why is facial recognition similar to gait recognition?
A. Cameras catch video of people’s expressions.
B. A person’s body shape can be recognized very easily.
C. Cameras record video of a person in public places.
D. A person’s action will be sent to the police.
15. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?
A. Japan and Britain kept a secret about the system.
B. The systems of gait recognition are hard to develop.
C. Gait recognition will suffer a poor market very soon.
D. Almost no one understands how gait recognition runs.

47. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整短文。
A rock as big as a house. That’s how the guide-book described Giant Rock. Dad said it was carried here by a glacier (冰川) millions of years ago.
I was finally going to see it, on snowshoes, with my cousin Andrew, my dad, and my uncle Don. I’d been snowshoeing before, and I liked traveling through deep snow alongside wild animal tracks (足迹).
At the parking area, after putting on our snowshoes, we studied the map. “We start here,” Dad said, “on the red trail (小路). Then we turn left onto the purple trail. That’s where Giant Rock is.”
“Remember to stick together, boys,” Uncle Don said.
The trail ran uphill alongside a stone wall. It was easy to follow because red markers were stuck onto the trees. At the top of the hill, we turned onto the purple trail. Dad and everyone else were in front and I was in the back. My cousin was faster than I was, but I managed to catch up.
The late afternoon sun felt warm, although it was going down. I saw lots of animal tracks — mostly rabbit prints. As we carried on up the trail. Andrew said what I’d been thinking, “Will we ever reach Giant Rock? Do you think your dad invented the idea of Giant Rock just to get us away from the TV for a while?”
I laughed. “You never know.”
Finally, we reached the top of a hill and saw the large rock sitting alone in the forest.
“It really is as big as a house!” Andrew said.
Standing in the rock’s long shadow (影子), I noticed the sun had got even lower.
“Let’s head back,” Dad said after a few minutes.
Soon we were on our way home. I was a little behind the group when I noticed a set of animal tracks. They were hard to see among the snowshoe prints, so I followed them off the trail for a closer look. They looked like tiny handprints and footprints. Must be a raccoon (浣熊) I thought, matching them to prints in my guide.
注意:续写词数应为150左右。
When I looked up, I suddenly realized I was totally alone.

Then I came to a crossroads.
