Instead of being made with cooking skills, food is made by time with pickling (腌制) skills, which are traditional ancient Chinese ways to make tastes stay for long. Pickling skills can be dated back to the Zhou Dynasty. In the Han Dynasty, the classic book Qimin Yaoshu carefully recorded ways for pickling vegetables. In the Tang Dynasty, pickling skills reached a new level: douchi became a common ingredient in royal (皇家的) meals, and was used to improve the taste of soups and meat. As time goes by, Chinese people make them at home and keep the tradition alive. Fuling Mustard Tuber (Fuling Zhacai), a symbol of Chongqing, is one of the most common pickled foods in Chinese daily life, and has spread and won hearts at home and abroad. Born in the Qing Dynasty in Fuling, Chongqing, this simple food is made by pickling fresh mustard tubers with salt, spices, and time. Modern trade first made it popular in other parts of China and later in Southeast Asia—Thai people added it to stir-fries and Malaysians to noodle soup. Then it entered Western markets, now available in New York, London, and Sydney supermarkets. Some people hold critical opinions about it, saying it may cause some illnesses if they eat it for long, but its taste still can’t stop people’s love for it. Recently, Fuling Mustard Tuber was even involved in a “Tastes of China” program in Europe, introducing this “little pickled treasure” from the east to thousands of people. These foods connect hearts across nations by making time full of taste. 1．When did pickling skills reach a new level? A．In the Zhou Dynasty. B．In the Han Dynasty. C．In the Tang Dynasty. D．In the Qing Dynasty. 2．In which country did people add Fuling Mustard Tuber to noodle soup? A．Thailand. B．Malaysia. C．America. D．Australia. 3．Which sentence uses “critical” with the same meaning as the underlined word? critical /'krɪtɪkl/ adj.①重要的  ②关键的  ③紧急的  ④批判的 A．He took a critical step to win the competition for his team in the end. B．The worker was badly hurt. At the critical moment, he was sent to the hospital in time. C．Communication between partners is critical for the long-term business development. D．The teacher is critical of Tom’s homework because of his careless mistakes. 4．What is the best title for the passage? A．The Smell of Tradition B．The Popularity of Pickles C．The Taste of Time D．The Symbol of Chongqing 【答案】1．C 2．B 3．D 4．C 【导语】本文主要介绍了中国传统腌制技艺的历史发展，以涪陵榨菜为例，讲述了其传播及人们对它的不同看法，展现了时间赋予食物的独特风味。 1．细节理解题。根据第二段“In the Tang Dynasty, pickling skills reached a new level”可知，腌制技艺在唐代达到了新水平。故选C。 2．细节理解题。根据第三段“Modern trade first made it popular in other parts of China and later in Southeast Asia—Thai people added it to stir-fries and Malaysians to noodle soup.”可知，马来西亚人把涪陵榨菜加到了面条汤里。故选B。 3．词句猜测题。根据第三段“saying it may cause some illnesses if they eat it for long”可知，有人认为长期食用可能致病，这是对涪陵榨菜的批判看法；结合critical的释义，此处是“批判的”含义。选项D“老师对汤姆的作业持批判态度，因为他犯了粗心的错误。”，与文中critical含义一致。故选D。 4．最佳标题题。文章开篇以“Do you believe time has a taste?”引出话题，结尾以“These foods connect hearts across nations by making time full of taste.”总结，贯穿全文的核心是“时间的味道”。故选C。 Welcome to Jiangxi Provincial Museum!

Made between the 9th and 13th centuries during China’s Tang and Song Dynasties, they include over 50,000 statues and are considered the highest level of grotto (石窟) art from that time. These carvings were cut directly into the cliffs, a method known as Moya Carving. In 1999, UNESCO recognized them as a World Heritage Site, meaning they are protected and belong to everyone in the world. What makes Dazu Rock Carvings special is that they show characters from Buddhism (佛教), Taoism, and Confucianism together. This shows how different beliefs lived peacefully together in ancient China. Besides gods and religious (宗教的) stories, the carvings also show everyday life—like farming, dancing, and family scenes—making them close to real people. The two main carving sites are on Beishan and Baodingshan mountains. Beishan carvings were started in the late Tang Dynasty and finished in the Song Dynasty. They are known for their great craftsmanship (工艺) and elegance, with about 10,000 statues mostly carved to show respect to Buddha. Baodingshan, the larger and more famous site, lies northeast of Dazu. It includes beautiful carvings from the 12th and 13th centuries set in a U-shaped valley, along with temples and a museum. The rock carving art has been handed down from generation to generation for over 1,300 years. It has made significant contributions to the development of Chinese rock carving art, Chinese fine arts, and even global fine arts. Dazu District works hard to protect it. 1．How are the Dazu Rock Carvings different from other ancient carvings? A．They are the oldest Buddhist carvings in the world. B．They were carved using a special colored stone. C．They were all completed within one dynasty. D．They show a mix of Buddhism, Taoism, and Confucianism. 2．Which of the following is TRUE about the Beishan carvings? A．They are located in a U-shaped valley. B．They were started in the early Tang Dynasty. C．They have nearly 10,000 statues showing respect to Buddha. D．They are the largest site among the Dazu Rock Carvings. 3．What can we infer about ancient Chinese society based on (基于) the Dazu Rock Carvings? A．Compared with other religions, the rulers at that time preferred to believe in Confucianism. B．The carvings served as a historical record of both spiritual (精神的) and daily life in ancient society. C．During the Tang and Song dynasties, different religions were strictly separated and couldn’t affect (影响) each other. D．The scenes of common people’s lives in the Dazu Rock Carvings were added at a later time. 4．If the passage continues, what will be discussed in the next paragraph? A．The materials and tools used to make the carvings. B．A comparison with other famous heritage sites in China. C．What is being done to protect the carvings today. D．How tourism helps make money for Dazu District. 【答案】1．D 2．C 3．B 4．C 【导语】本文介绍了大足石刻作为世界著名的佛教石刻艺术，融合了佛教、道教和儒家的元素，展现了古代中国不同信仰和谐共处的特点，并详细描述了两个主要石刻遗址（北山和宝顶山）的历史背景和艺术价值，最后强调了大足区对其保护的努力。 1．细节理解题。根据“What makes Dazu Rock Carvings special is that they show characters from Buddhism, Taoism, and Confucianism together.”可知大足石刻的特殊之处在于它同时展示了佛教、道教和儒教的人物形象。故选D。 2．细节理解题。根据“Beishan carvings…with about 10,000 statues mostly carved to show respect to Buddha.”可知北山石刻有近万尊主要用来表达对佛陀敬意的雕像。故选C。 3．推理判断题。根据“they show characters from Buddhism, Taoism, and Confucianism together”和“the carvings also show everyday life”可知大足石刻既反映了古代社会的精神信仰，也记录了日常生活场景。故选B。 4．推理判断题。文章最后一段提到“Dazu District works hard to protect it”，因此接下来最可能讨论的是当前为保护石刻所采取的措施。故选C。 Zigong, in Sichuan Province, is home to Chinese lanterns. Zigong lantern is known as the best lantern in the world. The Zigong Lantern Festival dates back to the Tang Dynasty. The festival has rapidly developed with traditional culture and modern technologies. In 2008, the Zigong Lantern Festival was listed as a national intangible cultural heritage (国家级非物质文化遗产), becoming a shining name card for Chinese culture to go out into the world “Making a huge lantern for exhibition requires 17 steps,” said Wan Songtao, an inheritor (传承人) of Zigong lantern-making. “Each step is finished by a team instead of a single maker,” Wan added. The sundial (日晷), a kind of lantern, made by Wan’s team, for example, took about 80 makers over 50 days to complete the whole process. Unlike the lanterns in other places, Zigong lanterns use modern technologies such as AI, mechanical engineering (机械工程), and holography (全息摄影术). They are perfect combinations (结合) of lights, sounds and movements. What’s more, the theme of the lantern can be chosen in different ways. “Anything that can be designed on a lantern can make a wonderful show, and everyone is encouraged to turn their ideas into real works,” said Zhang Fanglai, a leading researcher at the Colorful Lantern Museum of China. And the rich themes of Zigong lanterns show the spirit of creativity and warmth from the bottom of the local people’s hearts. The government encourages local people to learn lantern-making widely. Without doubt, at the heart of the Zigong Lantern Festival’s success is the local tradition of pulling together. Zigong lanterns are getting more and more popular. Driven by the collective efforts of the whole city, they have reached over 80 countries. It’s believed that Zigong lanterns will reach every corner of the world in the future. 1．Which of the following poets could probably enjoy Zigong lanterns? A．Cao Cao. B．Li Bai. C．Tao Yuanming. D．Cao Zhi. 2．What can we infer (推断) from Paragraph 2? ①Holography is a kind of traditional technology. ②It’s hard for makers to complete a huge lantern for exhibition. ③Zigong lanterns are different from the lanterns in other places. ④The workers of Zigong lantern making work together in a team. A．①②③ B．①④ C．②③④ D．②③ 3．According to the passage, what’s Paragraph 3 mainly about? A．The rich themes of Zigong lanterns. B．The long history of Zigong lanterns. C．The excellent inheritors of Zigong lanterns. D．The modern technologies of Zigong lanterns. 4．What does the underlined word “they” in Paragraph 4 refer to? A．People in Zigong. B．Many museums. C．The makers of Zigong lanterns. D．Zigong lanterns. 5．Which of the following best shows the structure of this passage? (① Paragraph1, ② Paragraph2...) A． B． C． D． 【答案】1．B 2．C 3．A 4．D 5．A 【导语】本文介绍了自贡灯会的历史、制作工艺、主题特色及其国际影响力。 1．推理判断题。根据“The Zigong Lantern Festival dates back to the Tang Dynasty.”可知，自贡灯会始于唐代，因此唐代诗人李白可能欣赏过自贡灯会。故选B。 2．推理判断题。根据“Making a huge lantern for exhibition requires 17 steps,” said Wan Songtao... Zigong lanterns use modern technologies such as AI, mechanical engineering (机械工程), and holography (全息摄影术).”可知，制作一个大型展览灯笼需要17个步骤，且每个步骤由一个团队完成，万松涛团队制作的日晷灯笼，约80名制作者花了50多天才完成整个过程，这说明完成一个大型展览灯笼对制作者来说很难；同时自贡灯笼与其他地方的灯笼不同，使用了现代技术；并且每个步骤由团队完成，说明自贡灯笼制作工人是团队合作的。②③④正确，①中全息摄影术是现代技术，不是传统技术，错误。故选C。 3．主旨大意题。根据“What’s more, the theme of the lantern can be chosen in different ways...And the rich themes of Zigong lanterns show the spirit of creativity and warmth from the bottom of the local people’s hearts.”可知，第三段主要讲了自贡灯笼丰富的主题，体现了当地人的创造力和热情。故选A。 4．词句猜测题。根据“Driven by the collective efforts of the whole city, they have reached over 80 countries. It’s believed that Zigong lanterns will reach every corner of the world in the future.”可知，在全城共同努力的推动下，“它们”已经传播到80多个国家，相信未来自贡灯笼将传播到世界各地，这里的“它们”指的是自贡灯笼。故选D。 5．篇章结构题。文章第一段介绍自贡灯会历史地位；第二段说明制作工艺与技术创新；第三段阐述主题特色；第四段展望国际传播。因此结构为①/②③/④。故选A。 Sugar painting, as the name means, is a painting made of sugar. It’s the sugar for us to taste, and the painting for us to admire. Since the Warring States Period, the ancient people loved sweets and developed methods of producing sugar. In the Tang Dynasty, there was huge progress in the technology of sugar making. And sugar, the precious product once not only served the emperors (皇帝) and princes, but also went into common people’s homes. With the cultural development of Song and Yuan Dynasties, people became less interested in only tasting sweetness. In the Ming Dynasty, some people added pictures with good luck into the bowl of sugar, and sugar painting appeared. Sugar painting is different from normal painting. Sugar painters use syrup (糖浆) as the material, a spoon as the “paintbrush”, and a smooth table as the “paper”. To make syrup, they have to make sugar hot before painting. Since syrup may become hard if it cools, the painters have to produce the work very quickly. They move the spoon full of syrup up and down, left and right. Soon a sugar painting is done. However, it’s a pity that this folk art is dying recently. The sugar painting that used to be rich in shapes has become poorer and poorer because of fewer needs. What’s worse, few people seem to be willing to pass on the art except those aging sugar painters. For most people, painting is a kind of art and difficult to understand. However, sugar painting has pulled the art down into people’s daily lives. Through it, we may see the spiritual support of the ancient people across centuries. Now, sugar painting has been listed as an intangible cultural heritage (非物质文化遗产) in China. Therefore, the art should be remembered, missed and passed on. 1．What does the underlined word “precious” in Paragraph 2 probably mean? A．Valuable and expensive. B．Useful and cheap. C．Special but worthless. 2．When did sugar painting appear? A．In the Warring States Period. B．In the Tang Dynasty. C．In the Ming Dynasty. 3．Why should sugar painters make the work very quickly? A．To show their excellent skills. B．To avoid syrup becoming hard. C．To reduce people’s waiting time. 4．What does the writer think of today’s sugar painting according to Paragraph 4? A．Excited. B．Worried. C．Unclear. 5．Which can be the best title for the passage? A．Development of the Art of Sugar Painting. B．Improving the Taste of Sugar Painting. C．Ways to Change the Future of Sugar Painting. 【答案】1．A 2．C 3．B 4．B 5．A 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了糖画这一从明代起源、以糖浆为材料的民间艺术，阐述了其独特制作工艺、当前面临的传承困境及其作为非物质文化遗产的重要价值。 1．词句猜测题。根据第二段中“And sugar, the precious product once not only served the emperors (皇帝) and princes, but also went into common people’s homes.”可知，糖曾经供奉皇帝和王子。由此可推测，糖曾经很珍贵，所以下划线的单词“precious”与Valuable and expensive近义。故选A。 2．细节理解题。根据第二段中“In the Ming Dynasty, some people added pictures with good luck into the bowl of sugar, and sugar painting appeared.”可知，到了明代，有人在糖的碗中加入吉祥如意的图画，糖画就出现了。故选C。 3．细节理解题。根据第三段中“Since syrup may become hard if it cools, the painters have to produce the work very quickly.”可知，因为糖浆冷却后会变硬，所以糖画师必须很快做出作品。故选B。 4．推理判断题。根据第四段中“However, it’s a pity that this folk art is dying recently.…What’s worse, few people seem to be willing to pass on the art except those aging sugar painters.”可知，最近这种民间艺术正在消亡。更糟糕的是，除了那些上了年纪的糖画师，似乎没几个人愿意把艺术传承下去。由此可推断，作者是担心的。故选B。 5．最佳标题题。通读全文可知，本文主要介绍了糖画这一从明代起源、以糖浆为材料的民间艺术，阐述了其独特制作工艺、当前面临的传承困境及其作为非物质文化遗产的重要价值。A选项“糖画艺术的发展”最适合做文章的标题。故选A。 How time flies!

Wuyi Rock Tea was highly praised in Chinese history and was traded along the ancient Tea Horse Road. The processing of the tea, with a history of over 1,000 years, must go through several steps including picking, withering (萎凋), roasting (烘焙) and rolling (捻揉). Fresh tea leaves are green, but after roasting and aging, they become dark and tightly twisted. The roasting process lasts for hours and is key to developing the tea’s special flavor (风味). Even today, much of the work is done by hand. In a traditional tea workshop in Wuyishan, workers dressed in simple clothing carefully roast and roll tea leaves over charcoal fires. “They are not performers. In fact, they are skilled masters,” says Mr. Chen, the workshop manager. “As more people learn about Wuyi Rock Tea, our visitors show great interest in how the tea is made and its cultural stories.” At the same time, to ensure high quality, modern technology has also been introduced. In new tea factories, temperature and humidity are digitally controlled. “We use modern equipment to assist (辅助) in roasting and drying, which makes the process more precise,” Mr. Chen explains. “Although machines help with some steps, the key roasting and aging are still done in the traditional way, so the tea’s original taste remains.” In recent years, the Wuyi Rock Tea industry has also been adapting to (适应) new trends. While carrying on traditional methods, it has welcomed creative ideas such as rock tea ice cream, tea-flavored chocolates, and even rock tea coffee. 1．Has Wuyi Rock Tea become famous only recently? 2．Why is the roasting process so important? 3．What are the main features (特点) of the Wuyi Rock Tea industry nowadays? 4．If you have a chance to create a new rock tea product, what will it be and why? Choose one to explain. (about 30 words) 【答案】1．No, it hasn’t. 2．Because it’s key to developing the tea’s special flavor. 3．It combines traditional methods with modern technology, and adapts to new trends by creating creative products. 4．开放性试题，言之有理即可。参考答案为：I’ll create rock tea cookies. They can combine the unique flavor of Wuyi Rock Tea with the crisp taste of cookies, which is easy to carry and popular among young people. 【导语】本文介绍了福建武夷山岩茶的历史地位、传统制作工艺及其现代化发展，同时提到该产业在保持传统的同时不断创新，推出融合岩茶风味的新产品。 1．根据第1段“Wuyishan in Fujian Province has been a famous production area for rock tea since ancient times. Wuyi Rock Tea was highly praised in Chinese history”可知武夷岩茶自古以来就很有名。故填No, it hasn’t. 2．根据第2段“The roasting process lasts for hours and is key to developing the tea’s special flavor.”可知烘焙过程对形成茶叶的特殊风味很关键。故填Because it’s key to developing the tea’s special flavor. 3．根据第4段“use modern equipment to assist... key steps still done traditionally”和第5段“carrying on traditional methods... welcomed creative ideas”可知，如今武夷岩茶产业的特点是：传统工艺与现代技术结合，同时创新衍生产品以适应新趋势。故填It combines traditional methods with modern technology, and adapts to new trends by creating creative products. 4．开放性试题，言之有理即可。参考答案为：I’ll create rock tea cookies.

It’s the sugar for us to taste, and the painting for us to admire. ②In the Warring States Period (战国时期), the ancient people loved sweets and developed ways of producing sugar. In the Tang Dynasty, the technology of sugar making improved. And sugar went into common people’s homes. With the cultural and economic (经济的) development of Song and Yuan Dynasties, people became less interested in only tasting sugar. Then, in the Ming Dynasty, some people added pictures with good luck into the bowl of sugar, and sugar painting appeared. ③Sugar painting is different from common painting. Sugar painters use syrup (糖浆) as the material, a spoon as the “paintbrush”, and a smooth table as the “paper”. To make syrup, they have to make sugar hot before painting. Because syrup may become hard if it cools, the painters have to produce the work very quickly. They move the spoon full of syrup up and down, left and right. Soon a sugar painting is done. ④However, it’s a pity that the art of sugar painting is dying recently. In the past, sugar paintings came in different shapes. But now, because fewer people buy them, their styles are becoming simpler and simpler. What’s worse, few people want to pass on (传承) the art except those old sugar painters. ⑤For most people, the art of painting is difficult to understand. However, sugar painting brings the art into people’s daily lives. It shows the spiritual pursuit (精神追求) of the ancient people. And it is an intangible cultural heritage (非物质文化遗产) in China. So, the art should be remembered, missed and passed on. 根据语篇内容，按要求回答问题。 1．What is sugar painting made of? 2．When did sugar painting appear? 3．Why do the painters have to produce the work very quickly? 4．What’s Paragraph 4 mainly about? 5．What can you do to help pass on the art of sugar painting?（不超过15个词） 【答案】1．Sugar. 2．In the Ming Dynasty. 3．Because syrup may become hard if it cools. 4．It mainly tells that the art of sugar painting is dying recently. 5．I can learn how to make sugar painting and share it with my friends./I can buy sugar painting more often to support the artist. 【导语】本文是说明文。主要介绍了中国非物质文化遗产——糖画，包括糖画的定义、起源与发展历程、制作方法，还提及了糖画艺术如今面临的传承困境，并强调糖画应被铭记与传承。 1．根据“Sugar painting, as the name means, is a painting made of sugar.”可知，糖画是由糖制成的。故填Sugar. 2．根据“Then, in the Ming Dynasty, some people added pictures with good luck into the bowl of sugar, and sugar painting appeared.”可知，糖画在明朝出现。故填In the Ming Dynasty. 3．根据“Because syrup may become hard if it cools, the painters have to produce the work very quickly.”可知，糖画艺人必须快速完成作品是因为糖浆冷却后可能会变硬。故填Because syrup may become hard if it cools. 4．④段首句“However, it’s a pity that the art of sugar painting is dying recently.”为该段主旨句，后文通过“样式变简单”“少有人传承”等内容具体说明糖画艺术的衰落。故填It mainly tells that the art of sugar painting is dying recently. 5．本题为开放性问题，需围绕“助力糖画传承”展开，且控制在15词以内。示例：I can learn how to make sugar painting and share it with my friends./I can buy sugar painting more often to support the artist.

Instead of being made with cooking skills, food is made by time with pickling (腌制) skills, which are traditional ancient Chinese ways to make tastes stay for long. Pickling skills can be dated back to the Zhou Dynasty. In the Han Dynasty, the classic book Qimin Yaoshu carefully recorded ways for pickling vegetables. In the Tang Dynasty, pickling skills reached a new level: douchi became a common ingredient in royal (皇家的) meals, and was used to improve the taste of soups and meat. As time goes by, Chinese people make them at home and keep the tradition alive. Fuling Mustard Tuber (Fuling Zhacai), a symbol of Chongqing, is one of the most common pickled foods in Chinese daily life, and has spread and won hearts at home and abroad. Born in the Qing Dynasty in Fuling, Chongqing, this simple food is made by pickling fresh mustard tubers with salt, spices, and time. Modern trade first made it popular in other parts of China and later in Southeast Asia—Thai people added it to stir-fries and Malaysians to noodle soup. Then it entered Western markets, now available in New York, London, and Sydney supermarkets. Some people hold critical opinions about it, saying it may cause some illnesses if they eat it for long, but its taste still can’t stop people’s love for it. Recently, Fuling Mustard Tuber was even involved in a “Tastes of China” program in Europe, introducing this “little pickled treasure” from the east to thousands of people. These foods connect hearts across nations by making time full of taste. 1．When did pickling skills reach a new level? A．In the Zhou Dynasty. B．In the Han Dynasty. C．In the Tang Dynasty. D．In the Qing Dynasty. 2．In which country did people add Fuling Mustard Tuber to noodle soup? A．Thailand. B．Malaysia. C．America.

B．The worker was badly hurt. At the critical moment, he was sent to the hospital in time. C．Communication between partners is critical for the long-term business development. D．The teacher is critical of Tom’s homework because of his careless mistakes. 4．What is the best title for the passage?

The Dazu Rock Carvings (大足石刻) are one of the world’s eight most famous Buddhist carvings. Made between the 9th and 13th centuries during China’s Tang and Song Dynasties, they include over 50,000 statues and are considered the highest level of grotto (石窟) art from that time. These carvings were cut directly into the cliffs, a method known as Moya Carving. In 1999, UNESCO recognized them as a World Heritage Site, meaning they are protected and belong to everyone in the world. What makes Dazu Rock Carvings special is that they show characters from Buddhism (佛教), Taoism, and Confucianism together. This shows how different beliefs lived peacefully together in ancient China. Besides gods and religious (宗教的) stories, the carvings also show everyday life—like farming, dancing, and family scenes—making them close to real people. The two main carving sites are on Beishan and Baodingshan mountains. Beishan carvings were started in the late Tang Dynasty and finished in the Song Dynasty. They are known for their great craftsmanship (工艺) and elegance, with about 10,000 statues mostly carved to show respect to Buddha. Baodingshan, the larger and more famous site, lies northeast of Dazu. It includes beautiful carvings from the 12th and 13th centuries set in a U-shaped valley, along with temples and a museum. The rock carving art has been handed down from generation to generation for over 1,300 years. It has made significant contributions to the development of Chinese rock carving art, Chinese fine arts, and even global fine arts. Dazu District works hard to protect it. 1．How are the Dazu Rock Carvings different from other ancient carvings? A．They are the oldest Buddhist carvings in the world.

B．They were started in the early Tang Dynasty. C．They have nearly 10,000 statues showing respect to Buddha. D．They are the largest site among the Dazu Rock Carvings. 3．What can we infer about ancient Chinese society based on (基于) the Dazu Rock Carvings? A．Compared with other religions, the rulers at that time preferred to believe in Confucianism. B．The carvings served as a historical record of both spiritual (精神的) and daily life in ancient society. C．During the Tang and Song dynasties, different religions were strictly separated and couldn’t affect (影响) each other. D．The scenes of common people’s lives in the Dazu Rock Carvings were added at a later time. 4．If the passage continues, what will be discussed in the next paragraph? A．The materials and tools used to make the carvings. B．A comparison with other famous heritage sites in China. C．What is being done to protect the carvings today. D．How tourism helps make money for Dazu District. Zigong, in Sichuan Province, is home to Chinese lanterns. Zigong lantern is known as the best lantern in the world. The Zigong Lantern Festival dates back to the Tang Dynasty. The festival has rapidly developed with traditional culture and modern technologies. In 2008, the Zigong Lantern Festival was listed as a national intangible cultural heritage (国家级非物质文化遗产), becoming a shining name card for Chinese culture to go out into the world “Making a huge lantern for exhibition requires 17 steps,” said Wan Songtao, an inheritor (传承人) of Zigong lantern-making. “Each step is finished by a team instead of a single maker,” Wan added. The sundial (日晷), a kind of lantern, made by Wan’s team, for example, took about 80 makers over 50 days to complete the whole process. Unlike the lanterns in other places, Zigong lanterns use modern technologies such as AI, mechanical engineering (机械工程), and holography (全息摄影术). They are perfect combinations (结合) of lights, sounds and movements. What’s more, the theme of the lantern can be chosen in different ways. “Anything that can be designed on a lantern can make a wonderful show, and everyone is encouraged to turn their ideas into real works,” said Zhang Fanglai, a leading researcher at the Colorful Lantern Museum of China. And the rich themes of Zigong lanterns show the spirit of creativity and warmth from the bottom of the local people’s hearts. The government encourages local people to learn lantern-making widely. Without doubt, at the heart of the Zigong Lantern Festival’s success is the local tradition of pulling together. Zigong lanterns are getting more and more popular. Driven by the collective efforts of the whole city, they have reached over 80 countries. It’s believed that Zigong lanterns will reach every corner of the world in the future. 1．Which of the following poets could probably enjoy Zigong lanterns? A．Cao Cao. B．Li Bai. C．Tao Yuanming.

A． B． C． D． Sugar painting, as the name means, is a painting made of sugar. It’s the sugar for us to taste, and the painting for us to admire. Since the Warring States Period, the ancient people loved sweets and developed methods of producing sugar. In the Tang Dynasty, there was huge progress in the technology of sugar making. And sugar, the precious product once not only served the emperors (皇帝) and princes, but also went into common people’s homes. With the cultural development of Song and Yuan Dynasties, people became less interested in only tasting sweetness. In the Ming Dynasty, some people added pictures with good luck into the bowl of sugar, and sugar painting appeared. Sugar painting is different from normal painting. Sugar painters use syrup (糖浆) as the material, a spoon as the “paintbrush”, and a smooth table as the “paper”. To make syrup, they have to make sugar hot before painting. Since syrup may become hard if it cools, the painters have to produce the work very quickly. They move the spoon full of syrup up and down, left and right. Soon a sugar painting is done. However, it’s a pity that this folk art is dying recently. The sugar painting that used to be rich in shapes has become poorer and poorer because of fewer needs. What’s worse, few people seem to be willing to pass on the art except those aging sugar painters. For most people, painting is a kind of art and difficult to understand. However, sugar painting has pulled the art down into people’s daily lives. Through it, we may see the spiritual support of the ancient people across centuries. Now, sugar painting has been listed as an intangible cultural heritage (非物质文化遗产) in China. Therefore, the art should be remembered, missed and passed on. 1．What does the underlined word “precious” in Paragraph 2 probably mean? A．Valuable and expensive. B．Useful and cheap. C．Special but worthless. 2．When did sugar painting appear? A．In the Warring States Period. B．In the Tang Dynasty. C．In the Ming Dynasty. 3．Why should sugar painters make the work very quickly? A．To show their excellent skills. B．To avoid syrup becoming hard. C．To reduce people’s waiting time. 4．What does the writer think of today’s sugar painting according to Paragraph 4? A．Excited. B．Worried. C．Unclear. 5．Which can be the best title for the passage? A．Development of the Art of Sugar Painting. B．Improving the Taste of Sugar Painting. C．Ways to Change the Future of Sugar Painting. How time flies! Now you are students of Grade 9. Here I’d like to tell you something interesting that will make your school life more colorful.

Wuyi Rock Tea was highly praised in Chinese history and was traded along the ancient Tea Horse Road. The processing of the tea, with a history of over 1,000 years, must go through several steps including picking, withering (萎凋), roasting (烘焙) and rolling (捻揉). Fresh tea leaves are green, but after roasting and aging, they become dark and tightly twisted. The roasting process lasts for hours and is key to developing the tea’s special flavor (风味). Even today, much of the work is done by hand. In a traditional tea workshop in Wuyishan, workers dressed in simple clothing carefully roast and roll tea leaves over charcoal fires. “They are not performers. In fact, they are skilled masters,” says Mr. Chen, the workshop manager. “As more people learn about Wuyi Rock Tea, our visitors show great interest in how the tea is made and its cultural stories.” At the same time, to ensure high quality, modern technology has also been introduced. In new tea factories, temperature and humidity are digitally controlled. “We use modern equipment to assist (辅助) in roasting and drying, which makes the process more precise,” Mr. Chen explains. “Although machines help with some steps, the key roasting and aging are still done in the traditional way, so the tea’s original taste remains.” In recent years, the Wuyi Rock Tea industry has also been adapting to (适应) new trends. While carrying on traditional methods, it has welcomed creative ideas such as rock tea ice cream, tea-flavored chocolates, and even rock tea coffee. 1．Has Wuyi Rock Tea become famous only recently? 2．Why is the roasting process so important? 3．What are the main features (特点) of the Wuyi Rock Tea industry nowadays? 4．If you have a chance to create a new rock tea product, what will it be and why? Choose one to explain. (about 30 words) ①Sugar painting, as the name means, is a painting made of sugar.

In October, 2021, China reached an important goal. It had done away with extreme poverty (贫穷). Many people outside couldn’t believe it. After all, China has a large number of poor villages. In order to show the truth to people, Chen set out to make the program No Poverty Land. It was difficult to finish the trip. When she was halfway up the ladder to Atule’er, for example, Chen felt so tired that she could hardly go any further. She was also afraid of heights. Some people advised her to give up on the climb. But the woman set her teeth and continued her climb. This metal ladder, in fact, is only six years old. Before it was built, it wasn’t convenient to climb the mountain and villagers used a ladder made of plants. The government also built houses for the villagers at the foot of the mountain. Through the program No Poverty Land, people can easily see how life in poor places of China has been improved. China has changed a lot, but some people just find it hard to believe.
