If you travel to China, its culture will surprise you. Let’s look at these fun parts—food, clothing, festivals... Chinese Food: Tasty and special •Dumplings (jiao zi): Dumplings stand for “good luck” and “family togetherness”. •Mooncakes (yue bing): They’re round like the full moon. People eat them on the Mid-Autumn Festival. They stand for the longing for family. Every place in China has its own foods. Come to China and try them! Chinese Festivals: Fun and meaningful •The Spring Festival: It’s the most important festival. Families get together, eat reunion dinner (团圆饭), and hang red lanterns (red means “good luck”)—so exciting! •The Mid-Autumn Festival: The moon is the fullest this time. Families usually enjoy the moon and eat mooncakes. It’s a happy time. * Hanfu: Hanfu is the traditional clothing of the Han people, with a history of over 3,000 years. It has many styles and colors.

C 【解析】 【导语】本文介绍了一些中国的传统食物，服饰以及节日等。 【31题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Dumplings”以及“Mooncakes”可知，文中明确提到的食物有两种：饺子和月饼。故选B。 【32题详解】 推理判断题。根据“Hanfu”以及“Qipao”可知，空格处介绍了“汉服”和“旗袍”这两种中国传统服饰，因此“中国服装：美丽而传统”适合放在此处。故选D。 【33题详解】 细节理解题。根据“If you visit a family, take small gifts like fruit or tea.

My grandmother always took me to the orchard (果园) on the hill. At that time, they had to carry water from the river at the foot of the hill. Even though we worked so hard, the production level of fruit was still low because we were short of water there. One day, two young men led a group of workers to our village. They learned about the difficulties we faced, and later, canals (水渠) and other projects began to be built in my village. “Who are they?” I asked. “They are good men from our government,” my grandma replied. Shortly after, I moved to another city for my junior high school. The only reason I ever came back to my hometown was my grandmother. One day, my family and I made time to return. We were surprised because everything had changed. The canal ran past every orchard so villagers didn’t have to go up and down the hill anymore. The river was now so clean that fish swam happily in it. When we arrived home, my grandma took out some fresh pears and apples. She told us that after the water conservation project (水利工程) was completed, a policy was made to encourage more people to increase the fruit production with clean water in the river. Thank those good men who have devoted themselves to the development of our countryside. Nowadays, people work hard to live in a big city. However, we should not forget our hometowns, where we are from. 34. What was it that troubled the villagers most? A. They had too much work. B. They could only grow fruit trees. C. It was not convenient to go up the hill. D. There wasn’t enough water in the orchard. 35. Which is closest in meaning to the underlined phrase “devoted themselves to”? A. prepared much for B. gave money to C. put a lot of effort into D. looked forward to it 36. What is the right order of the things that happened according to the passage? ①The writer moved to the city for his junior high school. ②The villagers had to carry water from the river to water the trees. ③With the people’s effort, the countryside changed a lot in many ways. ④In order to solve the shortage of water, people started to build the water conservation project. A. ②①④③ B. ②④①③ C. ①③④② D. ①④③② 37. What can we infer from the passage? A. The grandmother doesn’t like to live in the city. B. The village is a place of interest for tourists now. C. There will be more fruit production in the village. D. More people like to work in the country nowadays. 【答案】34. D 35. C 36. B 37. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者的家乡过去因缺水导致果树产量低下，后来在政府帮助下修建水利工程，最终改善了生产条件和生活面貌的故事，并表达了对建设者的感激和对家乡的眷恋。 【34题详解】 细节理解题。根据第1段“...the production level of fruit was still low because we were short of water there.”可知，最困扰村民的问题是果园缺水。故选D。 【35题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第5段“Thank those good men who have devoted themselves to the development of our countryside.”以及前文他们为村庄带来改变的事迹可知，这些人全身心投入到乡村发展中，“devoted themselves to”在这里表示“投身于、致力于”的意思，与“put a lot of effort into”意思相近。故选C。 【36题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章描述：最早是“村民不得不从山下河里挑水浇树” (第1段)，对应②；然后是“两个年轻人带领工人来了解困难，开始修建水利工程” (第2段)，对应④；接着是“我升初中搬到另一个城市” (第3段)，对应①；最后是“回乡后看到村庄在大家努力下发生了巨大变化” (第4段)，对应③。因此正确顺序是②④①③。故选B。 【37题详解】 推理判断题。根据第4段奶奶的话“after the water conservation project...a policy was made to encourage more people to increase the fruit production with clean water...”可知，有了水利工程和政策的支持，村里会增加水果产量。故选C。 C Did you know that vocabulary (词汇) is more important than grammar? If you have a good vocabulary, you can communicate successfully, even if the grammar is not completely perfect. However, one common problem is learning new words and then forgetting them. So when you want to use a new word in a conversation, you can’t remember it at that moment. Does this often happen to you? The reason for this difficulty is that most students try to learn vocabulary by studying lists and dictionaries and remembering the words. But it may not work if you don’t have a very good memory. The best way to learn vocabulary and remember the words successfully is to learn new words and use them at once. You can do this with a very simple exercise. Every time you learn a new word, for example, from an English lesson or an article, write it down in your vocabulary notebook. Writing is more active than just reading a definition (释义). You should write the word, the definition in English or translation, one example sentence from the article or dictionary and one example sentence that you create. Imagine you just learned the word “generous”, write in your vocabulary notebook: generous (adjective), definition—giving or willing to give freely. Example one, from the article: Thanks for paying for my dinner, you’re very generous. Example two, my example: My brother is generous because he volunteers at the animal shelter on weekends. It’s best if your example sentences are true to your life, because this creates a personal connection with the new word. The next day, read your vocabulary notebook again and try to add one more example sentence using the new word. It’s helpful for you to remember it. These two simple steps—writing the word and using it at once—help you remember and use new words. Do you have a vocabulary notebook? If not, start now. 38. From paragraph 2, we can find out the main ________ why students fail to use new words in conversations. A. excuse B. reason C. way D. fault 39. How can we make the best example sentences according to the writer? A. By asking for help from friends. B. By explaining words’ definitions. C. By connecting them with our life. D.

It comes from a natural wonder in Shaanxi Province—the meeting of the Jing River and the Wei River. The Wei River is an important *tributary of the Yellow River. It runs through the Guanzhong Plain (平原) in Shaanxi. The Jing River is a tributary of the Wei River. It starts from Ningxia and flows through the Loess Plateau (黄土高原). Long ago, the Jing River had clearer water because there were more plants in its upper areas. When the Jing River and the Wei River meet in Gaoling, Xi’an, a special sight appears. Due to different sediment content (沉积物含量) and flow speeds, one river is clear and the other is turbid. They don’t mix easily, forming a special line between them. At first, people saw “clear Jing and turbid Wei”. But as trees were cut down, the Jing River became turbid. Later, it even became “clear Wei and turbid Jing” This wonder was recorded in the ancient book The Book of Songs (《诗经》). The Tang Dynasty poet Du Fu also wrote about it in his poem Autumn Rain Lament (《秋雨叹》): “How long will the turbid Jing and clear Wei remain separate?” Today, the idiom “Jing Wei Fen Ming”keeps the idea of“clear and turbid”. It is not only used to describe natural wonders but also widely used to describe a clear difference between right and wrong, or two very different views or styles. “Jing Wei Fen Ming” shows the wisdom of ancient Chinese people—they learned from nature and turned it into a cultural idea. *A tributary is a river that flows into a larger river or a lake. 56. Where does the idiom “Jing Wei Fen Ming” come from? It comes from ________. 57. What does the underlined word “It” in paragraph 2 refer to? It refers to ________. 58. Which English word in the passage means “浑浊的”? It’s “________” 59. Which paragraph shows how ancient people described “clear Wei and turbid Jing”? In paragraph ________. 60. Write a title for this text with the word “introduction” in no more than eight words. ______________________________________. 【答案】56. a natural wonder in Shaanxi Province—the meeting of the Jing River and the Wei River 57. the Wei River 58. turbid 59. 4##four 60. An Introduction to “Jing Wei Fen Ming”（回答合理即可） 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了成语“泾渭分明”的自然来源、历史演变及文化含义，体现古人从自然中提炼的智慧。 【56题详解】 根据“It comes from a natural wonder in Shaanxi Province—the meeting of the Jing River and the Wei River”可知，成语“泾渭分明”源于陕西泾河与渭河交汇的自然奇观，故填a natural wonder in Shaanxi Province—the meeting of the Jing River and the Wei River。 【57题详解】 根据“The Wei River is an important tributary of the Yellow River. It runs through the Guanzhong (平原) Plain in Shaanxi”可知，“it”指代前文的“the Wei River”，故填the Wei River。 【58题详解】 根据“Due to different sediment content (沉积物含量) and flow speeds, one river is clear and the other is turbid.”可知，clear“清澈的”和turbid是反义词，因此turbid的含义是“浑浊的”，故填turbid。 【59题详解】 根据“The Tang Dynasty poet Du Fu also wrote about it in his poem...‘How long will the turbid Jing and clear Wei remain separate?’”可知，第四段引用古诗描述了“渭清泾浊”，故填4/four。 【60题详解】 全文介绍了“泾渭分明”这一成语的自然起源、历史记载及文化内涵，且标题需包含“introduction”一词，不超过 8 个单词。故填An Introduction to “Jing Wei Fen Ming”。（回答合理即可） Ⅸ. 交流与表达 (共6小题) 第一节：补全对话。 根据下面对话中的情景，在每个空白处填入一个适当的语句，使对话恢复完整。 (Break time.

My grandmother always took me to the orchard (果园) on the hill. At that time, they had to carry water from the river at the foot of the hill. Even though we worked so hard, the production level of fruit was still low because we were short of water there. One day, two young men led a group of workers to our village. They learned about the difficulties we faced, and later, canals (水渠) and other projects began to be built in my village. “Who are they?” I asked. “They are good men from our government,” my grandma replied. Shortly after, I moved to another city for my junior high school. The only reason I ever came back to my hometown was my grandmother. One day, my family and I made time to return. We were surprised because everything had changed. The canal ran past every orchard so villagers didn’t have to go up and down the hill anymore. The river was now so clean that fish swam happily in it. When we arrived home, my grandma took out some fresh pears and apples. She told us that after the water conservation project (水利工程) was completed, a policy was made to encourage more people to increase the fruit production with clean water in the river. Thank those good men who have devoted themselves to the development of our countryside. Nowadays, people work hard to live in a big city. However, we should not forget our hometowns, where we are from. 34. What was it that troubled the villagers most? A. They had too much work. B. They could only grow fruit trees. C.

There will be more fruit production in the village. D. More people like to work in the country nowadays. C Did you know that vocabulary (词汇) is more important than grammar? If you have a good vocabulary, you can communicate successfully, even if the grammar is not completely perfect. However, one common problem is learning new words and then forgetting them. So when you want to use a new word in a conversation, you can’t remember it at that moment. Does this often happen to you? The reason for this difficulty is that most students try to learn vocabulary by studying lists and dictionaries and remembering the words. But it may not work if you don’t have a very good memory. The best way to learn vocabulary and remember the words successfully, is to learn new words and use them at once. You can do this with a very simple exercise. Every time you learn a new word, for example, from an English lesson or an article, write it down in your vocabulary notebook. Writing is more active than just reading a definition (释义). You should write the word, the definition in English or translation, one example sentence from the article or dictionary and one example sentence that you create. Imagine you just learned the word “generous”, write in your vocabulary notebook: generous (adjective), definition—giving or willing to give freely.

It comes from a natural wonder in Shaanxi Province—the meeting of the Jing River and the Wei River. The Wei River is an important *tributary of the Yellow River. It runs through the Guanzhong Plain (平原) in Shaanxi. The Jing River is a tributary of the Wei River. It starts from Ningxia and flows through the Loess Plateau (黄土高原). Long ago, the Jing River had clearer water because there were more plants in its upper areas. When the Jing River and the Wei River meet in Gaoling, Xi’an, a special sight appears. Due to different sediment content (沉积物含量) and flow speeds, one river is clear and the other is turbid. They don’t mix easily, forming a special line between them. At first, people saw “clear Jing and turbid Wei”. But as trees were cut down, the Jing River became turbid. Later, it even became “clear Wei and turbid Jing” This wonder was recorded in the ancient book The Book of Songs (《诗经》). The Tang Dynasty poet Du Fu also wrote about it in his poem Autumn Rain Lament (《秋雨叹》): “How long will the turbid Jing and clear Wei remain separate?” Today, the idiom “Jing Wei Fen Ming”keeps the idea of“clear and turbid”. It is not only used to describe natural wonders but also widely used to describe a clear difference between right and wrong, or two very different views or styles. “Jing Wei Fen Ming” shows the wisdom of ancient Chinese people—they learned from nature and turned it into a cultural idea. *A tributary is a river that flows into a larger river or a lake. 56.
