As we all know, in ancient times, people communicated with others who were far away only by writing letters. It took a very long time to get the message. In the 19th century, telegraph was invented, but it was not widely used. The letter was still the commonest way at that time. In 1836, John Coker invented the first electromagnetic telegraph (电磁电报机) in the world, and then telegraph came into being and was popular. It was much faster than letters, bringing great convenience to people. As time goes by, telephones become increasingly widely used. Now, phones have been developed as mobile phones, fixed telephones, Internet telephones and other categories. They are important communication tools in modern information society. In addition, network communication is popular as well. It is especially widely welcomed by the youth. A great number of people communicate with others on the Internet by using software (软件), such as QQ, Wechat, BBS and MMS. Using software is easy. A computer which is connected to the network is enough. In China, Wechat has become the most popular communication software nowadays. Wechat, known as Weixin in China, is a mobile phone text and voice messaging communication software which is developed by Tencent. People who make video calls can not only hear the sound, but also see the people they talk to. 阅读短文，回答下列问题。 1．How did people communicate with others in ancient times? 2．When was the telegraph invented? 3．Who invented the first electromagnetic telegraph in 1836? 4．How many kinds of communication software are listed in the passage? 5．What kind of communication software is Wechat? 【答案】1．They/People communicated with others by writing letters(in ancient times). 2．It was invented in the 19th century./In the 19th century. 3．John Coker invented it in 1836./John Coker invented the first electromagnetic telegraph in 1836./John Coker. 4．4/Four kinds of communication software are listed in the passage. 5．Wechat is a mobile phone text and voice messaging communication software. 【导语】本文主要讲述了人类通讯的发展史。 1．根据“in ancient times, people communicated with others who were far away only by writing letters”可知，古代人们是通过写信和其他人交流。故填They/People communicated with others by writing letters(in ancient times). 2．根据“In the 19th century, telegraph was invented”可知，电报发明于19世纪。故填It was invented in the 19th century./In the 19th century. 3．根据“In 1836, John Coker invented the first electromagnetic telegraph (电磁电报机) in the world”可知，在1836年，John Coker发明了电磁电报机。故填John Coker invented it in 1836./John Coker invented the first electromagnetic telegraph in 1836./John Coker. 4．根据“A great number of people communicate with others on the Internet by using software (软件), such as QQ, Wechat, BBS and MMS.

Passage 2 Most people nowadays wear sneakers（运动鞋）, leather（皮革）shoes or boots（靴子）. But in ancient China, many people made their own cloth shoes. Tangchang, a town in Sichuan province, is quite famous for its cloth shoes. The town has 700 years of shoemaking history. Tangchang cloth shoes are made from natural materials such as flour （面粉）, cotton, cloth and wool which are more comfortable than those with plastic soles（鞋底）in the market and they are easy to walk in and they don’t get wet easily. But the process of making cloth shoes is not easy. Growing up in Tangchang, Lai Shufang is a master of making cloth shoes. The 69-year-old woman has been making shoes for over 40 years. She said that there are 32 steps that go into the production of the shoes. The most important step is making the soles. Layers（层）of white cloth are glued together with paste（面糊）made from flour. “To make the proper paste, we have to keep the hot water at an exact temperature of 85℃. If it’s too low or too high, the paste will fail,” Lai said. After this, the layered cloth is beaten again and again until it is tight enough to make soles, as well as the upper parts of the shoes. Over the time, sneakers began to gain more popularity among consumers（消费者）. Fewer and fewer people choose cloth shoes.To make a living and help the cultural heritage（遗产） alive, Lai and her co-workers added Shu embroidery（刺绣）to make the shoes more fashionable. They now sell about 10,000 pairs of shoes each year, both online and in their store. 1．What are Tangchang cloth shoes made from? 2．How long has Lai Shufang made cloth shoes? 3．What is the most important step in making cloth shoes? 4．How did Lai make the shoes more fashionable? 5．Amy wants to buy a pair of Tangchang cloth shoes for her 70-year-old grandma as birthday present. Do you think it is a good idea? Why or why not? 【答案】1．Natural materials (such as flour, cotton, cloth and wool)./They (Tangchang cloth shoes) are made from natural materials (such as flour, cotton, cloth and wool). 2．(For) 40 years./She has been making shoes for over 40 years. 3．Making (To make) the soles./The most important step is making the soles. 4．By adding Shu embroidery to make the shoes more fashionable./Lai (She) added Shu embroidery to make the shoes more fashionable. 5．Yes. Because it is very comfortable and fashionable. 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了唐昌布鞋的制作，包括制鞋材料和制鞋过程。 1．根据“Tangchang cloth shoes are made from natural materials such as flour （面粉）, cotton, cloth and wool”可知，唐昌布鞋是由像面粉、棉花、布料和羊毛等天然材质制作而成的。故填Natural materials (such as flour, cotton, cloth and wool)./They (Tangchang cloth shoes) are made from natural materials (such as flour, cotton, cloth and wool). 2．根据“The 69-year-old woman has been making shoes for over 40 years.”可知，69岁的赖淑芳制鞋已经有40多个年头了。故填(For) 40 years./She has been making shoes for over 40 years. 3．根据“The most important step is making the soles.”可知，最重要的一个步骤就是制作鞋底。故填Making (To make) the soles./The most important step is making the soles. 4．根据“Lai and her co-workers added Shu embroidery（刺绣）to make the shoes more fashionable.”可知，赖和她的合作者们增加了苏绣，让这鞋子看起来更时尚。故填By adding Shu embroidery to make the shoes more fashionable./Lai (She) added Shu embroidery to make the shoes more fashionable. 5．根据“Tangchang cloth shoes are made from natural materials such as flour （面粉）, cotton, cloth and wool which are more comfortable”可知唐昌布鞋采用天然材质制成，鞋子更舒适。又根据“Lai and her co-workers added Shu embroidery（刺绣）to make the shoes more fashionable.”可知，赖和她的合作者增加了苏绣，让鞋子看起来更时尚。因此可说，唐昌布鞋既舒适又时尚，因此适合送给Amy的奶奶作为生日礼物。故填Yes. Because it is very comfortable and fashionable. Passage 3 Usually, when we talk about reading, we think of using our eyes to see letters written in ink on paper. However, this is not always true. For example, blind people cannot see, but they can still read books. The man who introduced blind people to reading was Louis Braille. Braille lost his eyesight at the age of three. When he was ten, he went to a school for the blind in Paris. In those days, books for blind people used paper pressed against metal wire to form letters. Since the metal wire was heavy, each book weighed as much as 100 pounds. Indeed, the school library only had fourteen such books in it. In 1821, a soldier（士兵）visited the school and showed the students a system （系统）for passing messages at night. His system used paper with small, raised dots that could be felt with the fingers. Each letter of the alphabet was symbolized by a different pattern which consisted of twelve dots. The soldiers would pull their fingers over the raised dots to read the message. While the students found the soldier’s idea interesting, the system was too difficult to be of practical use. However, young Louis Braille took the idea and worked on it. At the age of fifteen, he created a system with patterns of six raised dots symbolizing each letter. “Braille”, the system for reading used today by blind people around the world, was thus born. The blind can easily recognize（辨别）Braille with their fingers. They can also easily write in Braille with a special typewriter. Today, it is the most common system used by blind people for reading and writing, and nearly every language, including Chinese, has its own version（版本）of Braille for its people to use. 1．Who introduced blind people to reading? 2．When did a soldier visit the school and show the students a system? 3．How old was Louis Braille when he created a system? 4．How can Chinese blind recognize “Braille”? 5．What do you think of Louis Braille? 【答案】1．Louis Braille. 2．In 1821. 3．At the age of fifteen./He was 15. 4．They can recognize “Braille” in Chinese version with their fingers. 5．He is good at thinking and practicing. 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。主要讲述了盲文的故事。十五岁时，Louis Braille创造了一个系统，每个字母有六个凸起的点，“盲文”就是这样诞生的。盲文是当今世界盲人使用时的阅读系统。几乎每一种语言，包括汉语，都有自己的盲文版本供盲人使用。 1．根据文中“The man who introduced blind people to reading was Louis Braille.”可知，Louis Braille介绍给盲人阅读。故填Louis Braille. 2．根据文中“In 1821, a soldier（士兵）visited the school and showed the students a system （系统）for passing messages at night.”可知，一名士兵在1821年去学校给学生们看系统的。故填In 1821. 3．根据文中“At the age of fifteen, he created a system with patterns of six raised dots symbolizing each letter.”可知，Louis Braille在十五岁的时候创建了一个系统。故填At the age of fifteen./He was 15. 4．根据文中“The blind can easily recognize（辨别）Braille with their fingers. Today, it is the most common system used by blind people for reading and writing, and nearly every language, including Chinese, has its own version（版本）of Braille for its people to use.”可知，中国盲人可以用手指识别中文版的“盲文”。故填They can recognize “Braille” in Chinese version with their fingers. 5．根据文中“While the students found the soldier’s idea interesting, the system was too difficult to be of practical use. However, young Louis Braille took the idea and worked on it.”可推理出，Louis Braille善于思考和练习。故填He is good at thinking and practicing. Passage 4 We moved to a beautiful two-storey (两层) old house. The house was built in 1905. It was repaired in 1997. At first, really small things began to happen that didn’t make me believe that anything was wrong, but as time went on, things started becoming stranger and stranger. Early on, something was missing, and later would be found somewhere else. I just thought I had forgotten where I put it, or perhaps my daughter was playing around with things. Then later on I would hear strange sounds when nobody was at home but me...Yet it was an old house, and sometimes old houses did make small noises. So again, I didn’t really mind. Then things that I couldn’t explain started happening. It was last November and I was at home alone cleaning the house. When I was sweeping the kitchen floor, I felt a very cold wind blow my hair. I thought the kitchen window must have been opened, but when I checked it, it was closed. The windows were new, and there was no way any cold air came in. We all felt very strange and moved away from there in October, 2002. I was never really frightened (害怕的). It was just strange, like something or someone was trying to get my attention or something. 1．How many floors did the old house have? 2．When was the old house repaired? 3．What happened when the writer was at home alone according to Paragraph 2? 4．What was the writer doing when he/she felt a cold wind blow his/her hair? 5．How did the writer feel about the old house? 【答案】1．The old house had two floors./Two. 2．It was repaired in 1997./In 1997. 3．He/She would hear strange sounds. 4．He/She was sweeping the kitchen floor. 5．He/She felt strange./Strange. 【导语】本文主要讲述了作者搬到一栋老房子后发生的一系列奇怪事情，以及作者对这栋房子的感受。 1．根据“We moved to a beautiful two-storey old house.”可知，这所老房子有两层，故填The old house had two floors./Two. 2．根据“It was repaired in 1997.”可知，老房子在1997年被修缮，故填It was repaired in 1997./In 1997. 3．根据“Then later on I would hear strange sounds when nobody was at home but me.”可知，作者独自在家时会听到奇怪的声音，故填He/She would hear strange sounds. 4．根据“When I was sweeping the kitchen floor, I felt a very cold wind blow my hair.”可知，作者正在清扫厨房地板时感觉到了冷风，故填He/She was sweeping the kitchen floor. 5．根据“I was never really frightened. It was just strange…”可知，作者对这所老房子感觉很奇怪，故填He/She felt strange./Strange. Passage 5 Huge Waves Destroying Arctic Ice Faster than Expected Ice covers much of the Arctic Ocean. Some pieces of ice are huge, like moving islands. As temperatures have increased , however, some of the ice has begun to disappear. Scientists have discovered huge waves in the arctic waters. The waves were discovered by accident in May, 2010. Scientist Aleksey Marchenko and his students set out on a trip. They wanted to study the icy waters. The ship travelled east and stopped next to a large block of ice around 50 miles from the small island of Hopen. Marchenko prepared to lead his students out onto the ice. “We were ready to go but when I went out, I discovered many cracks around,” he remembers. He decided to move the ship deeper into the ice to keep safe. The farther in they went, he thought, the harder the ice would become. As they pushed forward, however, the ship experienced small waves, and then bigger ones. Soon, the waves broke up the ice around the ship into thousands of smaller pieces. Within an hour, Marchenko and his team saw a wave that was about 13 feet high. The ship’s navigation system finally recorded the largest waves. They were more than 20 feet in height. The waves were so strong that they forced huge pieces of ice to jump up and down, breaking the ice into smaller pieces within just one hour. Scientists had never imagined that the process could happen so fast. The waves in these areas used to be small. The speed and force of the huge waves there makes it impossible to know in advance when they are coming. That could be dangerous for navigators and local communities who are unprepared for huge waved or depend on sea ice to protect them. Wildlife like polar bears that depend on sea ice to live is also in danger. Some scientists think people will soon see even bigger waves in icy waters. As waves break up ice, seas will be more open, waves will be stronger. There are stormy times ahead. 根据短文内容，请用完整句子回答下列问题。 1．When did Marchenko and his students discover huge waves in the arctic waters? 2．What happened to the ice around the ship when the ship moved into the ice? 3．How high were the largest waves recorded by the navigation system? 4．What animals will be in danger because of the huge waves? 5．What will people see in these icy waters? 【答案】1．In May 2010. 2．The waves broke up the ice around the ship into thousands of smaller pieces. 3．More than 20 feet. 4．Wildlife like polar bears. 5．People will see even bigger waves in icy waters./ Bigger waves in icy waters 【分析】这是一篇说明文，科学家们在北冰洋发现了海浪，海浪非常大，在很短的时间内将冰块破碎成更小的冰块，这使得依赖冰块生存的北极熊等野生动物处在危险之中。 1．根据短文第二段“The waves were discovered by accident in May, 2010”可知，这些巨大的海浪是在2019年五月份，被科学家“Aleksey Marchenko”和他的学生们发现的。故答案为In May 2010. 2．根据第五段“He decided to move the ship deeper into the ice……Soon, the waves broke up the ice around the ship into thousands of smaller pieces.”当船移动进冰内部的时候，浪越来越大，最终把船周围的大冰块破碎成了成千的小冰块。故填The waves broke up the ice around the ship into thousands of smaller pieces. 3．根据短文第六段“The ship's navigation system finally recorded the largest waves. They were more than 20 feet in height ”可知，导航系统记录的最大的海浪有20多英尺高。故答案为More than 20 feet. 4．根据倒数第二段“Wildlife like polar bears that depend on sea ice to live is also in danger”可知像北极熊这样的野生动物将处于危险之中。故填Wildlife like polar bears. 5．根据最后一段“people will soon see even bigger waves in icy waters”可知人们将很快在冰水中看到甚至更大的波浪。故填People will see even bigger waves in icy waters./ Bigger waves in icy waters. Passage 6 Chinese traditional painting and dance are two important parts of the art world. But what about when they meet each other? This year, a dance drama called Poetic Dance: The Journey of a Legendary Landscape Painting (《只此青绿》) was shown on CCTV’s Spring Festival Gala. It became popular overnight. According to CCTV, this poetic dance got the idea from the 900-year-old Chinese painting A Panorama of Rivers and Mountains (《千里江山图》). Created by Song Dynasty painter Wang Ximeng at about 18, the painting is amazing in its sweeping size, rich coloration and expressive details. It shows a Chinese blue-green landscape: “mountains and groupings of endless rise and fall between cloudless sky and rippling water”. The dance shows the Chinese traditional beauty of the painting. The dancers each had a different hairstyle, which looked like a mountain rock. The clothes that they wore were shades of green and blue, which is also poetic show of the mountains and rivers. When the dancers swayed beautifully, the audience seemed to be looking at the moving mountains and rivers. Huge mountains and rivers are coming to life! More than a thousand years later, green mountains and rivers still wow people as they did long ago. In recent years, more and more modern shows highlight Chinese traditional culture and have received warm welcome, especially among young people. They show interest in Chinese culture and are proud of it. 1．What does the underlined word “they” refer to in paragraph 1? 2．In A Panorama of Rivers and Mountains, what color is the Chinese landscape? 3．What does the dancers’ hairstyle look like? 4．Do young people like modern shows which highlight Chinese traditional culture? 5．According to the text, how do you like this poetic dance? 【答案】1．Chinese traditional painting and dance. 2．Blue-green. 3．A mountain rock. 4．Yes, they do. 5．It is amazing and brings the painting to life. 【导语】本文主要向我们介绍了中国传统的绘画艺术和舞蹈艺术的结合。由春晚的一个节目《只此青绿》展开，介绍了这个节目的寓意。 1．根据“Chinese traditional painting and dance are two important parts of the art world. But what about when they meet each other?”可知，《只此青绿》是中国传统舞蹈和绘画的结合，they指代Chinese traditional painting and dance。故填Chinese traditional painting and dance. 2．根据“It shows a Chinese blue-green landscape...”可知，《千里江山图》里的景观呈青绿色。故填Blue-green. 3．根据“The dancers each had a different hairstyle, which looked like a mountain rock.”可知，舞者的发型设计模仿了山石的形状。故填A mountain rock. 4．根据“In recent years, more and more modern shows highlight Chinese traditional culture and have received warm welcome, especially among young people.”可知，年轻人特别喜欢这类节目。故填Yes, they do. 5．此处应描述对这类舞蹈的看法，开放性试题，言之成理即可。故填It is amazing and brings the painting to life. Passage 7 Beijing Opera is one of the traditional Chinese drama art forms with a history of more than 200 years. It is said that Emperor Qianlong of the Qing Dynasty loved the theatre. At the beginning, there was no Beijing Opera. Kunqu Opera was the most popular, but Emperor Qianlong gradually became bored with this style. Various local operas were brought to Beijing to please the emperor. Drawing on the good points of these local operas, the new Beijing Opera came into being and became Qianlong’s favorite. Beijing Opera mixes different art forms, including singing, dancing, acrobatics and Wushu. All these art forms are put into one performance. Facial painting (脸谱) is one of the most important signs of Peking Opera. It shows the roles’ personalities. For example, a red face usually shows the role’s bravery; a white face shows the treachery and guile; a black face shows the role is a strict man. Beijing Opera has spread to many other places. Mei Lanfang, a famous performer, was the first to introduce Beijing Opera to foreigners and made highly successful tours to foreign countries. “You will doubt and sometimes be a little bored, but you will be interested gradually. You will be strongly attracted to Beijing Opera, even if you know nothing about the drama background.” This is how one traveler described his first experience in watching Beijing Opera.

Passage 8 Country music is one of the most popular kinds of music in the United States today because it is about simple but strong human feelings and events-love, sadness, good times, and bad times. It tells real-life, stories and sounds the way people really talk. As life becomes more difficult to understand, it is good to hear music about ordinary people. Country music, sometimes called country-western, comes from the traditional music of the people in the Appalachian Mountains in the eastern Unite States. Country music is also from traditional cowboy music from the west. The singers usually play guitars, and in the 1920s they started using electric guitars. At first city people said country music was low class. It was popular mostly in the South. But during World War II, thousands of Southerners went to the Northeast and Midwest to work in the factories. They took their music with them. Soldiers from the rest of the country went to army camps in the South. They learned country music. Slowly it became popular all over the country. Today country music is also popular everywhere in the United States and Canada—in small towns and in New York City, among black and white, and among educated and uneducated people. About 1, 200 radio stations broadcast country music twenty-four hours a day. English stars sing it in British English, and people in other countries sing it in their own languages. The music that started with cowboys and poor Southerners is now popular all over the world. 1．How many kinds of music does country music come from? 2．Where was country music popular before World War II? 3．What did many Southerners go to the Northeast and Midwest to do during World War II? 4．Who went to army camps in the South later? 5．Is country music one of the most popular kinds of music loved by different kinds of people in the world today? 【答案】1．Two./2. 2．In the South. 3．Work in the factories. 4．Soldiers from the rest of the country. 5．Yes. 【导语】本文介绍了西方乡村音乐的起源以及它流行的原因和现状。 1．根据“Country music, sometimes called country-western, comes from the traditional music of the people in the Appalachian Mountains in the eastern Unite States.

Passage 9 Crosstalk, or xiangsheng, is one of China’s most popular performing arts. People of all ages love it — kids, grandparents, and everyone in between find it super fun. Even many young students enjoy it after class, laughing along with performers on stage. No one knows exactly when crosstalk started. Some say the Ming Dynasty, but most think it became a real art during the Qing Dynasty when cities were full of energy. At first, one person did dankou (solo acts), telling silly stories or jokes. Later, when three or more joined, it was qunkou (group acts). But today, the most common is duikou (two-person acts). In duikou, there’s a “funny leader” (dougen) who makes most jokes, and a “helper” (penggen) who laughs, asks silly questions, or makes the jokes even funnier. They chat about daily life or silly things, making the audience laugh nonstop. Crosstalk has four key skills: shuo (telling stories/jokes), xue (copying sounds — like how cats meow or grandpas cough), dou (making people laugh with silly words/faces), and chang (singing short folk tunes). These are taught by older actors to new students, learning by doing. In recent years, online videos have made crosstalk even more popular. In 2008, China named it a “national intangible heritage” to help keep this funny art alive for more people. So next time you watch, remember: every laugh comes from lots of practice and happy sharing! 1．When do people think crosstalk became an real art form? 2．What was the earliest form of xiangsheng? 3．How many forms of xiangsheng are introduced in paragraph 2? 4．What are the key skills in xiangsheng according to the text? 5．Do you like xiangsheng? Why or why not? 【答案】1．During the Qing Dynasty. / Most of people think it became a real art during the Qing Dynasty. 2．Dankou (solo acts). / Dankou was the earliest form of xiangsheng. 3．Three. / There are three kinds of xiangsheng introduced in paragraph 2. 4．Shuo, xue, dou, and chang. 5．Yes, I do. Because it is funny and can make me relax, and it also carries traditional culture. / No, I don’t. Because I prefer other performing arts like music or dance. /... (开放性试题，言之有理即可。) 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了中国传统艺术相声的历史起源、表演形式、核心技能及其作为非物质文化遗产的现代传承。 1．根据第二段“but most think it became a real art during the Qing Dynasty”可知，大多数人认为相声在清朝成为真正的艺术形式。故填During the Qing Dynasty. / Most of people think it became a real art during the Qing Dynasty. 2．根据第二段“At first, one person did dankou (solo acts), telling silly stories or jokes.”可知，最早的相声形式是“单口相声”，即一人表演。故填Dankou (solo acts). / Dankou was the earliest form of xiangsheng. 3．根据第二段“At first, one person did dankou (solo acts), telling silly stories or jokes. Later, when three or more joined, it was qunkou (group acts). But today, the most common is duikou (two-person acts).”可知，第二段主要介绍了相声有单口、群口和对口，一共三种形式。故填Three. / There are three kinds of xiangsheng introduced in paragraph 2. 4．根据第三段“Crosstalk has four key skills: shuo ..., xue ..., dou ..., and chang ...”可知，相声的四种基本技能是“说、学、逗、唱”。故填Shuo, xue, dou, and chang. 5．本题为开放性题目，须结合个人观点作答。可以从相声的趣味性、文化价值、语言学习等角度说明喜欢或不喜欢的理由。示例Yes, I do. Because it is funny and can make me relax, and it also carries traditional culture. / No, I don’t. Because I prefer other performing arts like music or dance. /... Passage 10 A while ago I sent out a couple of hundred letters for information on subjects that interest me. One of the questions I asked was “When you think of love, what color comes to your mind?” One person said “money”. I didn’t know what color that was, maybe green, but I wasn’t sure, so, I didn’t give it a color. Two people said love didn’t have any color. Two other people said love was the color of the rainbow. That’s a nice thought. Now only 3 people chose red as the color they thought of as love. This surprised me, since that is the color used most on Valentines’ Day (情人节). I guess passion doesn’t necessarily mean love. There was a tie of 4 each for white and yellow. I can understand wanting a pure love (white) or a wise and happy love (yellow). Pink is the choice of 5 people who I think need beauty in their lives. Six people said either lavender, lilac (紫丁香) or violet was the color of love. I think all of them want some magic and mystery in their love lives. Green was the color chosen by 7 people as the color they thought of as love. These people must want a balanced love and maybe some money too. The most surprising answer was that 14 people picked blue. I think these people may know about love. Love should be sincere and true. Maybe if you have “the blues”, it is because you don’t have love. Most blues music is about lost love. Maybe blue is the color of love.

Passage 11 I’ve never lived in a dorm (寝室) before. Studying in the US gave me this new experience.The dorm I lived in is called Village Girls. You need to bring your cleaning things and clothes from your home. But it’s also important to bring things you may find trivial, like toys or something you hold dear. You may think it unnecessary, but you’ll find that having something that reminds you of home can help you a lot. When I first arrived, I only brought those things on the school list. However, there was an empty feeling in my heart, a sense of loneliness. There were no toys to hug at night, nor anything I could look at and be reminded of home. That’s when I realized that though we saw things like toys as unnecessary, we needed them more than anything else. It is also important to make friends.Though most parents prefer you to find someone with good grades, I think it’s better to choose someone with a good heart. If you’re shy, it is even more important to greet everyone in your dorm. That’s because once you keep yourself away from others, people may think you are cold. A friend of mine once told me, “No matter how much you've grown, you're still a kid at heart.” I’ve come to realize that it is true. No matter how old we are, our inner (内心的) selves still need love and comfort (安慰). With a friend and a toy in hand, I hope you’ll find joy no matter where you are. 阅读短文， 回答问题。 1．When did the writer live in a dorm? 2．How did the writer feel when she first arrived? 3．What does the underlined word “trivial” mean? 4．Do you think a toy can help to deal with loneliness like the writer? Why or why not? 【答案】1．When she was studying in the US. 2．She felt lonely. 3．Unnecessary. 4．Yes, I do. Because it can make me feel love and comfort. (本题是一道开放性试题，答案言之有理即可。) 【导语】本文主要讲了作者对住宿生活的看法。 1．根据第一段“I’ve never lived in a dorm (寝室) before. Studying in the US gave me this new experience.”可知，作者在美国学习时住宿舍。故填When she was studying in the US. 2．根据第二段“When I first arrived, I only brought those things on the school list. However, there was an empty feeling in my heart, a sense of loneliness.”可知，当作者第一个到达时，她感觉心里很孤单。故填She felt lonely. 3．根据“...like toys or something you hold dear. You may think it unnecessary, but you’ll find that having something that reminds you of home can help you a lot.”可知，带一些像玩具或你珍视的物品，可能你会觉得没必要，但你会发现拥有一些能让你想起家的东西对你有很大帮助。故推测划线单词“trivial”意为“琐碎的，不必要的”，与句中“Unnecessary”意思相近。故填unnecessary。 4．本题是一道开放性试题，答案言之有理即可。参考答案为：Yes, I do. Because it can make me feel love and comfort. Passage 12 Xiangiang Middle School encourages the students to have different talents. Mike plays the guitar at school, and Max plays the drums.

I still remember the first time I saw her. It was in the ninth grade. We met on a stage (舞台) design team for a play and she was one of the directors. She had an unpleasant voice and a direct way of speaking. For some reason, she then made a deep impression on me. Maria would ask me for my opinion. She wanted to know how I thought we should deal with things. At first, I had no idea how to answer because I knew nothing about stage design. But I slowly began to respond to her questions. It was cause and effect: She believed me and encourage me, So I began to form opinions and completed things perfectly. Most importantly, I began to believe in myself. Maria’s motto (格言) was, “Try it. We can always paint over it later!” I began to take risks (冒险). I had been so afraid of failing but suddenly there was no failing-only things to be improved. With her help, I learned to dip my brush into the paint and create something with great confidence. The shy, quiet starter achieved success that year.

The sky was blue, the sun was out, and the air was warm. As I drove along the roads I could see thousands of wild flowers in bloom. When I rounded a curve（转弯）I slowed. I saw some volunteers picking up rubbish along the side of the road. I smiled as I saw them doing some “Spring Cleaning” for Mother Earth. And my mind floated（飘荡）back in time to another Spring day long ago. When my children were younger we used to walk around the lake near our home. One Spring day my daughter and I noticed just how much rubbish was lying along the path. The next day then we brought a big rubbish bag with us and started to slowly, step by step, pick up the rubbish along our way. There were plastic water bottles, wrappers（包装袋）for candy bars, empty chip bags, pieces of broken fishing line, and even an old thrown—away shoe. We stopped and picked up each one and even fished a few pieces of garbage out of the edge of the water. By the time we had circled the lake the bag was nearly full. Tired but happy, we put the bag in an empty dustbin. We stopped before we headed home and took one last look at the lake as the sun set. It looked more beautiful than ever and I felt like the angels were looking down upon it with us and sharing our smiles. I know that at times you wonder what you can do to make a difference. But the truth is EVERYTHING you do makes a difference! Every time you pick up a single piece of  rubbish you make a difference. Every kind word you say makes a difference. Every loving thought you think, every flower you plant, every animal you save, everything you do, no matter how small, makes a difference in this world. Make your difference today! Share your love. Shine your light. 1．What made the writer remember another Spring day long ago? 2．When was their bag nearly full? 3．How did the writer and her daughter feel after their work that day? 4．请把文中的划线句子翻译成汉语。 5．请给短文拟一个恰当的标题。 【答案】1．some volunteers picking up rubbish along the side of the road. 2．By the time they had circled the lake. 3．Tired but happy. 4．我知道有时你会想知道自己能做些什么来改变现状。 5．Small actions make big differences 【导语】本文主要讲述了作者看到一些志愿者在路边捡垃圾，回忆起了几年前和女儿在湖边一起捡垃圾的场景，号召大家改变要从小事做起。 1．细节理解题。根据“I saw some volunteers picking up rubbish along the side of the road. I smiled as I saw them doing some “Spring Cleaning” for Mother Earth. And my mind floated（飘荡）back in time to another Spring day long ago.”（我看到一些志愿者在路边捡垃圾。当我看到他们在为地球母亲做“大扫除”时，我笑了。我的思绪又回到了很久以前的另一个春日。）可知，作者看到一些志愿者在路边捡垃圾，使作者想起了很久以前的另一个春天。故填some volunteers picking up rubbish along the side of the road. 2．根据“By the time we had circled the lake the bag was nearly full.”（我们绕湖一圈时，袋子几乎满了。）可知，绕湖一圈时，袋子几乎满了。故填By the time they had circled the lake. 3．根据“Tired but happy.”（很累，但是很开心。）可知，作者和她的女儿那天工作结束后感觉很累，但是很开心。故填Tired but happy. 4．I我；know知道；that宾语从句引导词, 可不译；at times有时；you你；wonder想知道；what什么；you你；can能够；do做；to去；make a difference作出改变。故填：我知道有时你会想知道自己能做些什么来改变现状。 5．根据“But the truth is EVERYTHING you do makes a difference!

Every loving thought you think, every flower you plant, every animal you save, everything you do, no matter how small, makes a difference in this world. Make your difference today! ”（但事实是，你所做的一切都有意义！每次你捡起一块垃圾，你都在改变。你说的每一句话都有影响。你想的每一个爱的想法，你种的每一朵花，你拯救的每一种动物，你做的每一件事，不管多小，都会对这个世界产生影响。）可知，本文主要讲述了作者看到一些志愿者在路边捡垃圾，回忆起了几年前和女儿在湖边一起捡垃圾的场景，号召大家改变要从小事做起。所以文章的标题可以是“Small actions make big differences（小的行动产生大影响）”。故填Small actions make big differences。 Passage 5 I had two pets in my house, a dog named Sam and a cat named Katty. They loved each other so much that they were always together. When I played with one, the other joined in. If Sam barked at something, Katty ran to see what it was. When I took either one out of the house, the other was always waiting by the door when we returned. That was the way it was for years. But one day, without any warning, Sam died of a heart attack （心脏病突发） at the animal hospital and I had to walk back to our house alone. This time, there was no Sam for Katty to greet and no way for me to explain why she would never see her friend again. In the days that followed, Katty seemed heartbroken. She could not tell me in words how she felt, but I could see the pain and disappointment in her eyes whenever anyone opened the front door and the hope whenever she heard a dog bark. As the weeks went by, the cat seemed to feel much better. One day as I walked into our living room, I happened to have a look at the floor next to our sofa where we had a statue （塑像） of Sam that we had bought a few years before.

Passage 7 “I could tell it was him by the way he walked.” If you’ve ever said that, you understand biometrics（生物识别技术）. Biometric technology is an important topic in our work and private lives. It includes the use of finger prints or knowing a person’s voice. It is the science about what a person looks like and how a person does things. Like tree leaves, no two human beings are exactly the same. They’ve got different eyes and different hair. And everyone has a different way of walking or moving. This technology can tell you from others. At the moment if you travel through an airport, you need your ID card or passport. If you go to your bank to get some money, you need a card and a special number. But what should you do if you lose your passport or forget your number? Biometric technology can solve this problem. The technology is becoming more and more popular with old people because they no longer need to remember their passwords（密码）. This technology is all around us in our life. We use them to unlock a smart phone, get into our homes, start our cars without a key or even pay for our shopping. Nothing is perfect. People are worried about the safety of their private information. However, the technology will become much better in the future, and it will become more and more important in our daily life. 1题完成句子；2、3题简略回答问题；4题找出并写下第二段的主题句；5题将画线句子译成汉语。 1．Biometric technology includes or knowing a person’s voice. 2．What are people worried about? 3．Where can the technology be used according to the text? （至少写出文中提到的两个地方） 4． 5． 【答案】1．the use of finger prints 2．People are worried about the safety of their private information. 3．At the airport./In our work./At home./In our daily life. 4．This technology can tell you from others. 5．这种技术在我们的生活中无处不在。 【导语】本文主要介绍了生物识别技术的作用，它在我们生活中的用处以及它的弊端。 1．根据“It includes the use of finger prints or knowing a person’s voice”可知，它包括使用指纹或识别一个人的声音，故填the use of finger prints。 2．根据“People are worried about the safety of their private information”可知，人们担心他们的私人信息的安全，故填People are worried about the safety of their private information. 3．根据“We use them to unlock a smart phone, get into our homes, start our cars without a key or even pay for our shopping”可知，我们用它们来解锁智能手机，进入我们的家，不用钥匙启动汽车，甚至支付我们的购物费用，故填At the airport./In our work./At home./In our daily life.（至少写出文中提到的两个地方） 4．根据“This technology can tell you from others”及整段的内容可知，此段主要介绍生物识别技术能够把你和其他人区别开这个用处，所以第一句话就是本段的主题句，故填This technology can tell you from others. 5．this technology“这项技术”：all around us“在我们周围”：in our life“在我们生活里”，故填：这种技术在我们的生活中无处不在。 Passage 8 Imagine an expressway(高速公路) that can circle around Earth more than three and a half times! China is home to the world’s largest expressway network, with a total length of 160,000 kilometers as of the end of 2020. By 2035, the network will cover all cities and counties, China Daily reported. The expressway’s blueprint(蓝图) was first announced in 1991, when China was still at the early stage of its market reforms(改革). The speedy growth of the economy called for more convenient transportation. The government planned to build expressways with a total length of 35,000 kilometers over 30 years. But the goal was achieved by 2008, 13 years ahead of schedule. The expressways connect not only China’s biggest cities, such as Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou, but also many medium-sized cities. They reach about 70 percent of China’s urban residents(居民). Different climate and terrain(地形) challenges were overcome. This allowed roads to be built in undeveloped areas. The expressways provide strong support for poverty alleviation(扶贫). Take the Shanghai-Chongqing expressway as an example. At the eastern end of the road, Shanghai is China’s financial center. But the western end used to be one of the country’s poorest areas. It’s the Wuling mountain region. It covers the city of Chongqing, as well as Hubei, Hunan and Guizhou provinces. Because of the expressway, the region has been lifted out of extreme poverty. 1-2题完成句子；3题回答问题；4题找出并写下最后一段的主题句；5题将画线句子译成汉语。 1．China is home to expressway network. 2．In 1990s, the speedy growth of China’s economy called for . 3．What cities do the expressways connect? 4． 5． 【答案】1．the world’s largest 2．more convenient transportation 3．They connect not only China’s biggest cities but also many medium-sized cities. 4．The expressways provide strong support for poverty alleviation. 5．但是（道路的）西端曾经是国家最贫穷的地区之一。 【导语】本文主要讲述了高速公路的发展及其对中国多方面发展的重要性。 1．根据第一段“China is home to the world’s largest expressway network,”可知，中国是世界上最大的快高速公路网之乡。故填the world’s largest。 2．根据第二段“The speedy growth of the economy called for more convenient transportation.”可知，中国在20世纪90年代经济的快速增长需要更便捷的交通。故填more convenient transportation。 3．根据第三段“The expressways connect not only China’s biggest cities, such as Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou, but also many medium-sized cities.”可知，高速公路不仅连接起来大城市，而且连接起来中型城市。故填They connect not only China’s biggest cities but also many medium-sized cities. 4．第四段的内容主要讲了高速公路对于中国的扶贫的强大支持，该段第一句为主题句。故填The expressways provide strong support for poverty alleviation. 5．but“但是”；the western end“西端”；used to be“曾经是”；one of the country’s poorest areas“国家最贫困的地区之一”。故填“但是（道路的）西端曾经是国家最贫穷的地区之一。 $专题06 任务型阅读 题型1 阅读回答 题型2 混合型任务 1 / 1 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 题型1 阅读回答 Passage 1 With the rapid development of science and technology, the ways of communication among people have changed a lot in the past years. As we all know, in ancient times, people communicated with others who were far away only by writing letters. It took a very long time to get the message. In the 19th century, telegraph was invented, but it was not widely used. The letter was still the commonest way at that time. In 1836, John Coker invented the first electromagnetic telegraph (电磁电报机) in the world, and then telegraph came into being and was popular. It was much faster than letters, bringing great convenience to people. As time goes by, telephones become increasingly widely used. Now, phones have been developed as mobile phones, fixed telephones, Internet telephones and other categories. They are important communication tools in modern information society. In addition, network communication is popular as well. It is especially widely welcomed by the youth. A great number of people communicate with others on the Internet by using software (软件), such as QQ, Wechat, BBS and MMS. Using software is easy. A computer which is connected to the network is enough. In China, Wechat has become the most popular communication software nowadays. Wechat, known as Weixin in China, is a mobile phone text and voice messaging communication software which is developed by Tencent. People who make video calls can not only hear the sound, but also see the people they talk to. 阅读短文，回答下列问题。 1．How did people communicate with others in ancient times? 2．When was the telegraph invented? 3．Who invented the first electromagnetic telegraph in 1836? 4．How many kinds of communication software are listed in the passage? 5．What kind of communication software is Wechat? Passage 2 Most people nowadays wear sneakers（运动鞋）, leather（皮革）shoes or boots（靴子）. But in ancient China, many people made their own cloth shoes. Tangchang, a town in Sichuan province, is quite famous for its cloth shoes. The town has 700 years of shoemaking history. Tangchang cloth shoes are made from natural materials such as flour （面粉）, cotton, cloth and wool which are more comfortable than those with plastic soles（鞋底）in the market and they are easy to walk in and they don’t get wet easily. But the process of making cloth shoes is not easy. Growing up in Tangchang, Lai Shufang is a master of making cloth shoes. The 69-year-old woman has been making shoes for over 40 years. She said that there are 32 steps that go into the production of the shoes. The most important step is making the soles. Layers（层）of white cloth are glued together with paste（面糊）made from flour. “To make the proper paste, we have to keep the hot water at an exact temperature of 85℃. If it’s too low or too high, the paste will fail,” Lai said. After this, the layered cloth is beaten again and again until it is tight enough to make soles, as well as the upper parts of the shoes. Over the time, sneakers began to gain more popularity among consumers（消费者）. Fewer and fewer people choose cloth shoes.To make a living and help the cultural heritage（遗产） alive, Lai and her co-workers added Shu embroidery（刺绣）to make the shoes more fashionable. They now sell about 10,000 pairs of shoes each year, both online and in their store. 1．What are Tangchang cloth shoes made from? 2．How long has Lai Shufang made cloth shoes? 3．What is the most important step in making cloth shoes? 4．How did Lai make the shoes more fashionable? 5．Amy wants to buy a pair of Tangchang cloth shoes for her 70-year-old grandma as birthday present. Do you think it is a good idea? Why or why not? Passage 3 Usually, when we talk about reading, we think of using our eyes to see letters written in ink on paper. However, this is not always true. For example, blind people cannot see, but they can still read books. The man who introduced blind people to reading was Louis Braille. Braille lost his eyesight at the age of three. When he was ten, he went to a school for the blind in Paris. In those days, books for blind people used paper pressed against metal wire to form letters. Since the metal wire was heavy, each book weighed as much as 100 pounds. Indeed, the school library only had fourteen such books in it. In 1821, a soldier（士兵）visited the school and showed the students a system （系统）for passing messages at night. His system used paper with small, raised dots that could be felt with the fingers. Each letter of the alphabet was symbolized by a different pattern which consisted of twelve dots. The soldiers would pull their fingers over the raised dots to read the message. While the students found the soldier’s idea interesting, the system was too difficult to be of practical use. However, young Louis Braille took the idea and worked on it. At the age of fifteen, he created a system with patterns of six raised dots symbolizing each letter. “Braille”, the system for reading used today by blind people around the world, was thus born. The blind can easily recognize（辨别）Braille with their fingers. They can also easily write in Braille with a special typewriter. Today, it is the most common system used by blind people for reading and writing, and nearly every language, including Chinese, has its own version（版本）of Braille for its people to use. 1．Who introduced blind people to reading? 2．When did a soldier visit the school and show the students a system? 3．How old was Louis Braille when he created a system? 4．How can Chinese blind recognize “Braille”? 5．What do you think of Louis Braille? Passage 4 We moved to a beautiful two-storey (两层) old house. The house was built in 1905. It was repaired in 1997. At first, really small things began to happen that didn’t make me believe that anything was wrong, but as time went on, things started becoming stranger and stranger. Early on, something was missing, and later would be found somewhere else. I just thought I had forgotten where I put it, or perhaps my daughter was playing around with things. Then later on I would hear strange sounds when nobody was at home but me...Yet it was an old house, and sometimes old houses did make small noises. So again, I didn’t really mind. Then things that I couldn’t explain started happening. It was last November and I was at home alone cleaning the house. When I was sweeping the kitchen floor, I felt a very cold wind blow my hair. I thought the kitchen window must have been opened, but when I checked it, it was closed. The windows were new, and there was no way any cold air came in. We all felt very strange and moved away from there in October, 2002. I was never really frightened (害怕的). It was just strange, like something or someone was trying to get my attention or something. 1．How many floors did the old house have? 2．When was the old house repaired? 3．What happened when the writer was at home alone according to Paragraph 2? 4．What was the writer doing when he/she felt a cold wind blow his/her hair? 5．How did the writer feel about the old house? Passage 5 Huge Waves Destroying Arctic Ice Faster than Expected Ice covers much of the Arctic Ocean. Some pieces of ice are huge, like moving islands. As temperatures have increased , however, some of the ice has begun to disappear. Scientists have discovered huge waves in the arctic waters. The waves were discovered by accident in May, 2010. Scientist Aleksey Marchenko and his students set out on a trip. They wanted to study the icy waters. The ship travelled east and stopped next to a large block of ice around 50 miles from the small island of Hopen. Marchenko prepared to lead his students out onto the ice. “We were ready to go but when I went out, I discovered many cracks around,” he remembers. He decided to move the ship deeper into the ice to keep safe. The farther in they went, he thought, the harder the ice would become. As they pushed forward, however, the ship experienced small waves, and then bigger ones. Soon, the waves broke up the ice around the ship into thousands of smaller pieces. Within an hour, Marchenko and his team saw a wave that was about 13 feet high. The ship’s navigation system finally recorded the largest waves. They were more than 20 feet in height. The waves were so strong that they forced huge pieces of ice to jump up and down, breaking the ice into smaller pieces within just one hour. Scientists had never imagined that the process could happen so fast. The waves in these areas used to be small. The speed and force of the huge waves there makes it impossible to know in advance when they are coming. That could be dangerous for navigators and local communities who are unprepared for huge waved or depend on sea ice to protect them. Wildlife like polar bears that depend on sea ice to live is also in danger. Some scientists think people will soon see even bigger waves in icy waters. As waves break up ice, seas will be more open, waves will be stronger. There are stormy times ahead. 根据短文内容，请用完整句子回答下列问题。 1．When did Marchenko and his students discover huge waves in the arctic waters? 2．What happened to the ice around the ship when the ship moved into the ice? 3．How high were the largest waves recorded by the navigation system? 4．What animals will be in danger because of the huge waves? 5．What will people see in these icy waters? Passage 6 Chinese traditional painting and dance are two important parts of the art world. But what about when they meet each other? This year, a dance drama called Poetic Dance: The Journey of a Legendary Landscape Painting (《只此青绿》) was shown on CCTV’s Spring Festival Gala. It became popular overnight. According to CCTV, this poetic dance got the idea from the 900-year-old Chinese painting A Panorama of Rivers and Mountains (《千里江山图》). Created by Song Dynasty painter Wang Ximeng at about 18, the painting is amazing in its sweeping size, rich coloration and expressive details. It shows a Chinese blue-green landscape: “mountains and groupings of endless rise and fall between cloudless sky and rippling water”. The dance shows the Chinese traditional beauty of the painting. The dancers each had a different hairstyle, which looked like a mountain rock. The clothes that they wore were shades of green and blue, which is also poetic show of the mountains and rivers. When the dancers swayed beautifully, the audience seemed to be looking at the moving mountains and rivers. Huge mountains and rivers are coming to life! More than a thousand years later, green mountains and rivers still wow people as they did long ago. In recent years, more and more modern shows highlight Chinese traditional culture and have received warm welcome, especially among young people. They show interest in Chinese culture and are proud of it. 1．What does the underlined word “they” refer to in paragraph 1? 2．In A Panorama of Rivers and Mountains, what color is the Chinese landscape? 3．What does the dancers’ hairstyle look like? 4．Do young people like modern shows which highlight Chinese traditional culture? 5．According to the text, how do you like this poetic dance? Passage 7 Beijing Opera is one of the traditional Chinese drama art forms with a history of more than 200 years. It is said that Emperor Qianlong of the Qing Dynasty loved the theatre. At the beginning, there was no Beijing Opera. Kunqu Opera was the most popular, but Emperor Qianlong gradually became bored with this style. Various local operas were brought to Beijing to please the emperor. Drawing on the good points of these local operas, the new Beijing Opera came into being and became Qianlong’s favorite. Beijing Opera mixes different art forms, including singing, dancing, acrobatics and Wushu. All these art forms are put into one performance. Facial painting (脸谱) is one of the most important signs of Peking Opera. It shows the roles’ personalities. For example, a red face usually shows the role’s bravery; a white face shows the treachery and guile; a black face shows the role is a strict man. Beijing Opera has spread to many other places. Mei Lanfang, a famous performer, was the first to introduce Beijing Opera to foreigners and made highly successful tours to foreign countries. “You will doubt and sometimes be a little bored, but you will be interested gradually. You will be strongly attracted to Beijing Opera, even if you know nothing about the drama background.” This is how one traveler described his first experience in watching Beijing Opera. Beijing Opera is China’s national opera and it is full of Chinese cultural traditions. Welcome to China and enjoy Beijing Opera. 根据短文内容回答问题（每小题答案不超过10个单词）。 1．How long is the history of Beijing Opera?    2．How did the new Beijing Opera come into being? 3．What can show the roles’ personalities in Beijing Opera? 4．Who was the first to introduce Beijing Opera to foreigners? 5．What’s your feeling when you listen to or watch Beijing Opera? Passage 8 Country music is one of the most popular kinds of music in the United States today because it is about simple but strong human feelings and events-love, sadness, good times, and bad times. It tells real-life, stories and sounds the way people really talk. As life becomes more difficult to understand, it is good to hear music about ordinary people. Country music, sometimes called country-western, comes from the traditional music of the people in the Appalachian Mountains in the eastern Unite States. Country music is also from traditional cowboy music from the west. The singers usually play guitars, and in the 1920s they started using electric guitars. At first city people said country music was low class. It was popular mostly in the South. But during World War II, thousands of Southerners went to the Northeast and Midwest to work in the factories. They took their music with them. Soldiers from the rest of the country went to army camps in the South. They learned country music. Slowly it became popular all over the country. Today country music is also popular everywhere in the United States and Canada—in small towns and in New York City, among black and white, and among educated and uneducated people. About 1, 200 radio stations broadcast country music twenty-four hours a day. English stars sing it in British English, and people in other countries sing it in their own languages. The music that started with cowboys and poor Southerners is now popular all over the world. 1．How many kinds of music does country music come from? 2．Where was country music popular before World War II? 3．What did many Southerners go to the Northeast and Midwest to do during World War II? 4．Who went to army camps in the South later? 5．Is country music one of the most popular kinds of music loved by different kinds of people in the world today? Passage 9 Crosstalk, or xiangsheng, is one of China’s most popular performing arts. People of all ages love it — kids, grandparents, and everyone in between find it super fun. Even many young students enjoy it after class, laughing along with performers on stage. No one knows exactly when crosstalk started. Some say the Ming Dynasty, but most think it became a real art during the Qing Dynasty when cities were full of energy. At first, one person did dankou (solo acts), telling silly stories or jokes. Later, when three or more joined, it was qunkou (group acts). But today, the most common is duikou (two-person acts). In duikou, there’s a “funny leader” (dougen) who makes most jokes, and a “helper” (penggen) who laughs, asks silly questions, or makes the jokes even funnier. They chat about daily life or silly things, making the audience laugh nonstop. Crosstalk has four key skills: shuo (telling stories/jokes), xue (copying sounds — like how cats meow or grandpas cough), dou (making people laugh with silly words/faces), and chang (singing short folk tunes). These are taught by older actors to new students, learning by doing. In recent years, online videos have made crosstalk even more popular. In 2008, China named it a “national intangible heritage” to help keep this funny art alive for more people. So next time you watch, remember: every laugh comes from lots of practice and happy sharing! 1．When do people think crosstalk became an real art form? 2．What was the earliest form of xiangsheng? 3．How many forms of xiangsheng are introduced in paragraph 2? 4．What are the key skills in xiangsheng according to the text? 5．Do you like xiangsheng? Why or why not? Passage 10 A while ago I sent out a couple of hundred letters for information on subjects that interest me. One of the questions I asked was “When you think of love, what color comes to your mind?” One person said “money”. I didn’t know what color that was, maybe green, but I wasn’t sure, so, I didn’t give it a color. Two people said love didn’t have any color. Two other people said love was the color of the rainbow. That’s a nice thought. Now only 3 people chose red as the color they thought of as love. This surprised me, since that is the color used most on Valentines’ Day (情人节). I guess passion doesn’t necessarily mean love. There was a tie of 4 each for white and yellow. I can understand wanting a pure love (white) or a wise and happy love (yellow). Pink is the choice of 5 people who I think need beauty in their lives. Six people said either lavender, lilac (紫丁香) or violet was the color of love. I think all of them want some magic and mystery in their love lives. Green was the color chosen by 7 people as the color they thought of as love. These people must want a balanced love and maybe some money too. The most surprising answer was that 14 people picked blue. I think these people may know about love. Love should be sincere and true. Maybe if you have “the blues”, it is because you don’t have love. Most blues music is about lost love. Maybe blue is the color of love. I just can’t see sending a blue heart to my lover next Valentines’ Day. This little survey is not scientific, but it is very interesting. Did you know not all people dream in color? Well, I hope everyone makes sure to daydream in the most wonderful and wild colors possible. 阅读短文，回答问题。 1.

You need to bring your cleaning things and clothes from your home. But it’s also important to bring things you may find trivial, like toys or something you hold dear. You may think it unnecessary, but you’ll find that having something that reminds you of home can help you a lot. When I first arrived, I only brought those things on the school list. However, there was an empty feeling in my heart, a sense of loneliness. There were no toys to hug at night, nor anything I could look at and be reminded of home. That’s when I realized that though we saw things like toys as unnecessary, we needed them more than anything else. It is also important to make friends.Though most parents prefer you to find someone with good grades, I think it’s better to choose someone with a good heart. If you’re shy, it is even more important to greet everyone in your dorm. That’s because once you keep yourself away from others, people may think you are cold. A friend of mine once told me, “No matter how much you've grown, you're still a kid at heart.” I’ve come to realize that it is true. No matter how old we are, our inner (内心的) selves still need love and comfort (安慰). With a friend and a toy in hand, I hope you’ll find joy no matter where you are. 阅读短文， 回答问题。 1．When did the writer live in a dorm? 2．How did the writer feel when she first arrived? 3．What does the underlined word “trivial” mean? 4．Do you think a toy can help to deal with loneliness like the writer?

All the students like to enjoy their music. There are more than 50 clubs in the school, but they want to do something different. One day Mike and Max decided for the school’s first marching band(行进乐队). But they needed more musical instruments (器) and members. Mike and Max put up a sign asking anyone who plays a musical instrument to join. Many students were really interested in this. Soon they got a lot of answers. Sam really wanted to join the band, but he had one huge problem. He could not play any musical instrument. Sophia also wanted to join the band, but she played the harp (竖琴). The harp is too big. She can’t carry it while playing. “How can you be in our band?” Mike asked Sophia.“You play the harp sitting down, how can you march?” All the band members wanted Sophia to play in the band. But they also wanted to march. Where is the way? Then Max had an idea. He invited Sam and Sophia to join the band. Max asked his father for help. His father is good at creating. He made a big board with four wheels. Then Max asked Sam to ride a bicycle to pull the board with Sophia and her harp on it. Sam could use the bicycle’s bell as a kind of musical instrument. The band members loved Max’s idea and everyone loved the marching band’s great music. 1．How many clubs are there in the school? 2．What could Sophia play? 3．Who rode a bicycle in the band? 4．What did Max’s father do for the band? 5．Why was Sam able to join the band? 题型2 混合型任务阅读 Passage 1 阅读下面材料，然后从所给的A一E五个选项中选择正确的选项(其中一项是多余选项)，将其序号填入小题，并回答最后小题 I have been a teacher all my life, and I want to be an English teacher again in my next time. ——Chen Lin A master of English education in China, Chen Lin just celebrated his 100th birthday in April. 1 In 1950, Chen started teaching at Beijing Foreign Studies University (BFSU). 2 He always put importance on “standing up” and “speaking up” in his classes. He always stood to teach and talked loudly. When class was over, he would “shut up” at once. 3 Li Jinzhao, one of Chen’s students and a teacher at BFSU now, said Chen likes role-playing and singing to make the class active. It was different from the “teacher speaks, students listen” style of the time. He also encouraged students to speak more and practice more. In 1999, Chen led experts to make English curriculum standards (新课程标准). Before that, English teaching goals from primary school to university didn’t connect well with each other. But the standards changed it. Then, English education worked like “one package (一条龙)”. 4 After leaving his job, Chen keeps on working. He reads and writes about how to improve English teaching. A．Chen’s good teaching “impressed (使印象深刻) students” B．He was known as the “Professor of Three Ups” C． Chen has spent his whole life on English education D．He managed to make his class lively and interesting E.

I still remember the first time I saw her. It was in the ninth grade. We met on a stage (舞台) design team for a play and she was one of the directors. She had an unpleasant voice and a direct way of speaking. For some reason, she then made a deep impression on me. Maria would ask me for my opinion. She wanted to know how I thought we should deal with things. At first, I had no idea how to answer because I knew nothing about stage design. But I slowly began to respond to her questions. It was cause and effect: She believed me and encourage me, So I began to form opinions and completed things perfectly. Most importantly, I began to believe in myself. Maria’s motto (格言) was, “Try it. We can always paint over it later!” I began to take risks (冒险). I had been so afraid of failing but suddenly there was no failing-only things to be improved. With her help, I learned to dip my brush into the paint and create something with great confidence. The shy, quiet starter achieved success that year. I was selected into the program as “Student Art Assistant” because of the time and effort I’d put in. It was that year that I realized I wanted to spend the rest of my life doing stage design. Being on that stage design team with the Maria changed me completely. I not only _____________________, but also _____________________. She taught me not to care what people think I should do. She taught me to take chances and not be afraid.

As I drove along the roads I could see thousands of wild flowers in bloom. When I rounded a curve（转弯）I slowed. I saw some volunteers picking up rubbish along the side of the road. I smiled as I saw them doing some “Spring Cleaning” for Mother Earth. And my mind floated（飘荡）back in time to another Spring day long ago. When my children were younger we used to walk around the lake near our home. One Spring day my daughter and I noticed just how much rubbish was lying along the path. The next day then we brought a big rubbish bag with us and started to slowly, step by step, pick up the rubbish along our way. There were plastic water bottles, wrappers（包装袋）for candy bars, empty chip bags, pieces of broken fishing line, and even an old thrown—away shoe. We stopped and picked up each one and even fished a few pieces of garbage out of the edge of the water. By the time we had circled the lake the bag was nearly full. Tired but happy, we put the bag in an empty dustbin. We stopped before we headed home and took one last look at the lake as the sun set. It looked more beautiful than ever and I felt like the angels were looking down upon it with us and sharing our smiles. I know that at times you wonder what you can do to make a difference. But the truth is EVERYTHING you do makes a difference! Every time you pick up a single piece of  rubbish you make a difference. Every kind word you say makes a difference. Every loving thought you think, every flower you plant, every animal you save, everything you do, no matter how small, makes a difference in this world. Make your difference today! Share your love. Shine your light. 1．What made the writer remember another Spring day long ago? 2．When was their bag nearly full? 3．How did the writer and her daughter feel after their work that day? 4．请把文中的划线句子翻译成汉语。 5．请给短文拟一个恰当的标题。 Passage 5 I had two pets in my house, a dog named Sam and a cat named Katty. They loved each other so much that they were always together. When I played with one, the other joined in. If Sam barked at something, Katty ran to see what it was. When I took either one out of the house, the other was always waiting by the door when we returned. That was the way it was for years. But one day, without any warning, Sam died of a heart attack （心脏病突发） at the animal hospital and I had to walk back to our house alone. This time, there was no Sam for Katty to greet and no way for me to explain why she would never see her friend again. In the days that followed, Katty seemed heartbroken. She could not tell me in words how she felt, but I could see the pain and disappointment in her eyes whenever anyone opened the front door and the hope whenever she heard a dog bark. As the weeks went by, the cat seemed to feel much better. One day as I walked into our living room, I happened to have a look at the floor next to our sofa where we had a statue （塑像） of Sam that we had bought a few years before.

In Wordle, you must work out a mystery five-letter word in six guesses or less. After each guess, the color of the squares changes to show how close you are. Similar to crossword puzzles and Scrabble (一种拼字游戏), Wordle is not only fun but also great for the brain. It’s also simple and quick to play. The most unique (独特的) thing is that you can only play it once a day. People wait every day to play it. “It’s just so fun! It’s one of the first things I do after I wake up,” said Francesca Gould from Australia. Every player gets the same mystery word. People get on social media (社交媒体) to share and compare their results.

Passage 7 “I could tell it was him by the way he walked.” If you’ve ever said that, you understand biometrics（生物识别技术）. Biometric technology is an important topic in our work and private lives. It includes the use of finger prints or knowing a person’s voice. It is the science about what a person looks like and how a person does things. Like tree leaves, no two human beings are exactly the same. They’ve got different eyes and different hair. And everyone has a different way of walking or moving. This technology can tell you from others. At the moment if you travel through an airport, you need your ID card or passport. If you go to your bank to get some money, you need a card and a special number. But what should you do if you lose your passport or forget your number? Biometric technology can solve this problem. The technology is becoming more and more popular with old people because they no longer need to remember their passwords（密码）. This technology is all around us in our life. We use them to unlock a smart phone, get into our homes, start our cars without a key or even pay for our shopping. Nothing is perfect. People are worried about the safety of their private information. However, the technology will become much better in the future, and it will become more and more important in our daily life. 1题完成句子；2、3题简略回答问题；4题找出并写下第二段的主题句；5题将画线句子译成汉语。 1．Biometric technology includes or knowing a person’s voice. 2．What are people worried about? 3．Where can the technology be used according to the text? （至少写出文中提到的两个地方） 4． 5． Passage 8 Imagine an expressway(高速公路) that can circle around Earth more than three and a half times! China is home to the world’s largest expressway network, with a total length of 160,000 kilometers as of the end of 2020. By 2035, the network will cover all cities and counties, China Daily reported. The expressway’s blueprint(蓝图) was first announced in 1991, when China was still at the early stage of its market reforms(改革). The speedy growth of the economy called for more convenient transportation. The government planned to build expressways with a total length of 35,000 kilometers over 30 years. But the goal was achieved by 2008, 13 years ahead of schedule. The expressways connect not only China’s biggest cities, such as Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou, but also many medium-sized cities. They reach about 70 percent of China’s urban residents(居民). Different climate and terrain(地形) challenges were overcome. This allowed roads to be built in undeveloped areas. The expressways provide strong support for poverty alleviation(扶贫). Take the Shanghai-Chongqing expressway as an example. At the eastern end of the road, Shanghai is China’s financial center. But the western end used to be one of the country’s poorest areas. It’s the Wuling mountain region. It covers the city of Chongqing, as well as Hubei, Hunan and Guizhou provinces. Because of the expressway, the region has been lifted out of extreme poverty. 1-2题完成句子；3题回答问题；4题找出并写下最后一段的主题句；5题将画线句子译成汉语。 1．China is home to expressway network. 2．In 1990s, the speedy growth of China’s economy called for . 3．What cities do the expressways connect? 4． 5． $
