第一节(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)
阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C三个选项中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
A
As language learners, it’s important to use dictionaries. Paper dictionaries are often great choices for us. They lead us to think in a more exact way. However, with the rapid development of the Internet, many websites and apps offer us information about the language we are learning, so some language learners like online dictionaries better. Here is what some students think of the two kinds of dictionaries.
Lin Tao, 14
I like to look up something in a paper dictionary better. Their explanations are so clear that I can understand them better. I don’t think some online dictionaries are believable. There are many incorrect usages which can make us confused (困惑的).
Wang Lan, 15
If we are not good at memorizing English words, we can look up their meanings online very soon. It helps us finish reading the English articles more smoothly. If we are good language learners, we can always learn more in a shorter time with an online dictionary. It saves much time.
Tian Xiao, 13
I don’t like carrying a heavy dictionary wherever I go. It’s really convenient to learn a language with the help of an online dictionary. We don’t need to spend much time looking up new words. Using an online dictionary makes us a more effective (有效的) learner.
If you want to share your opinions, please e-mail us at 18900053407youthdaily@163.com. And your opinions will be carried in tomorrow’s newspaper.
31. Why does Lin Tao like paper dictionaries better?
A. There are many incorrect usages.
B. Their explanations are clear.
C. It’s a great friend for him.
32. What are the advantages of the online dictionaries according to Tian Xiao?
A. Convenient and effective. B. Fast and clear. C. Correct and clear.
33. Where is the text probably taken from?
A. Textbook. B. Magazine. C. Newspaper.
B
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 (战国时代), 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 only served to the emperors and princes, also 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 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.
34. What does the underlined word “precious” in Paragraph 2 probably mean?
A. Valuable and expensive. B. Useful and cheap. C. Special but worthless.
35. When did sugar painting appear?
A. In the Warring States Period.
B. In the Tang Dynasty.
C. In the Ming Dynasty.
36. Why should sugar painters make the work very quickly?
A. To show their excellent skills.
B. To avoid syrup becoming hard.
C. To protect the spoon and the table.
37. What’s the writer’s attitude (态度) towards today’s sugar painting according to Paragraph 4?
A. Uncaring. B. Doubtful. C. Worried.
C
The Qingming Festival is a traditional Chinese festival. It is believed to have a history of about 2,500 years. Over the centuries, Chinese people have developed colorful traditions, including flying kites, eating cold food and going on spring outings. The most important tradition of the festival is sweeping tombs (扫墓).
The Qingming Festival usually falls on April 4 or 5. It falls on April 4 this year. On April 3, a middle school in Guyuan, Ningxia held a special activity for students—a 54-kilometer hike to Renshanhe Martyr Cemetery (任山河烈士陵园). At 4:30 in the morning, more than 2,000 teachers and students set off from the starting point. They hiked for 27 kilometers until they reached Renshanhe Martyr Cemetery. When they arrived there, they swept tombs and offered flowers to pay respects to the revolutionary martyrs (革命烈士). Then they returned 27 kilometers to where they started at 7:30 p.m.
Starting in 1995, the 54-kilometer hike is a traditional ideological and political class (思政课) of the school. “We hope students can not only learn about the revolutionary martyrs from books, but also experience and touch history on the spot (实地),” the school’s headmaster said.
“Although it has been a difficult trip, I would like to say that what I did is very meaningful.” said Zhao Mingyu, a student from Grade 8. “I deeply realized that we can’t live a happy life today without the revolutionary martyrs.”
38. What is the most important tradition of the Qingming Festival?
A. Sweeping tombs. B. Eating cold food. C. Flying kites.
39. When did the school hold a 54-kilometer hike to Renshanhe Martyr Cemetery?
A. On April 3. B. On April 4. C. On April 5.
40 Why did the school start the 54-kilometer hike?
A. To help students learn about the revolutionary martyrs from books.
B. To help students experience and touch history on the spot.
C. To help students live a happy life.
41. What do we know from the passage?
A. The Qingming Festival falls on April 5 this year.
B. It took the students 3 hours to finish the 54-kilometer hike.
C. Zhao Mingyu thought the hike was difficult but meaningful.

Growing up in a medical family like this, he really liked medicine since he was a kid.

He also read about 900 medical books. He worked day and night. Finally the valuable work, Compendium of Materia Medica or Bencao Gangmu, came out.
Today Materia Medica has been translated into many foreign languages. It is widely read not only in China but also in many other countries around the world.

The word silk itself is beautiful. The story of silk started in China over 4,000 years ago. One story says a silkworm’s cocoon (茧) fell into a woman’s teacup. It then opened into a single unbroken thread (线). This was an important discovery. The Chinese learned they could use the cocoons to make cloth that was both beautiful to look at and soft to touch.
Making silk was a protected secret in China for many years. In other countries, silk was very valuable. Often it was worth more than gold. It was said that the secret was finally given away when a queen left China for India. In her hair, she secretly carried many silkworms.
By the year 1 AD, silk was sold as far west as Rome, and all along the Silk Road. Finally, around the year 300, silk also travelled from China to Japan. In 1522, the Spanish brought silkworms to Mexico.
Today people around the world still make many beautiful things from silk. But silk isn’t only beautiful. It looks easy to break, but actually it’s very strong. For example, people have already used it to make bicycle wheels. And some doctors even use silk threads in hospital. Silk is also lightweight and warm. This makes it great for clothes like winter jackets, trousers and shoes.
All of this is from a little silkworm. That is the magic of silk.

请阅读下面文本,完成思维导图。
Teenagers need eight to ten hours of sleep per night. However, many can’t fall asleep until 10:30 p.m. or even later and most of them will feel sleepy.
Scientists recommend that both middle and high schools begin no earlier than 8:30 a.m. Later school start times support the natural needs of teenagers and increase their sleeping time.
Here are some other benefits of later school start times:
More time for a healthy breakfast
When running late in the mornings, students are likely to go without breakfast. With an empty stomach, one finds it difficult to focus (集中) in class. If they have enough time before going to school, students can eat a well-balanced breakfast and focus more on learning.
Fewer behavioral (行为的) problems
Less sleep may cause worries, stress and unhappiness.
When they get enough sleep, students are calm and peaceful and their moods do not change suddenly. They’re less likely to feel worried, unhappy or get angry. For parents, children with more sleep are easier to live with.
Better performance (表现) in study
Less sleep hurts attention, memory and brain development. Students with less sleep have difficulty paying attention in class and are likely to have lower grades. Students with enough sleep can be more energetic during the day and more willing to learn. They are also less likely to fall asleep in class and more able to understand what they learn.
In conclusion, starting school later helps students get a better night’s sleep. It improves their chances of eating, behaving and performing better.

As language learners, it’s important to use dictionaries. Paper dictionaries are often great choices for us. They lead us to think in a more exact way. However, with the rapid development of the Internet, many websites and apps offer us information about the language we are learning, so some language learners like online dictionaries better. Here is what some students think of the two kinds of dictionaries.
Lin Tao, 14
I like to look up something in a paper dictionary better. Their explanations are so clear that I can understand them better. I don’t think some online dictionaries are believable. There are many incorrect usages which can make us confused (困惑的).
Wang Lan, 15
If we are not good at memorizing English words, we can look up their meanings online very soon. It helps us finish reading the English articles more smoothly. If we are good language learners, we can always learn more in a shorter time with an online dictionary. It saves much time.
Tian Xiao, 13
I don’t like carrying a heavy dictionary wherever I go. It’s really convenient to learn a language with the help of an online dictionary. We don’t need to spend much time looking up new words. Using an online dictionary makes us a more effective (有效的) learner.
If you want to share your opinions, please e-mail us at 18900053407youthdaily@163.com. And your opinions will be carried in tomorrow’s newspaper.

【31题详解】
细节理解题。根据Lin Tao的观点“I like to look up something in a paper dictionary better. Their explanations are so clear that I can understand them better.”可知,林涛更喜欢纸质词典是因为它们的解释很清晰,能让他更好地理解。故选B。
【32题详解】

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 (战国时代), 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 only served to the emperors and princes, also 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 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.
34. What does the underlined word “precious” in Paragraph 2 probably mean?
A. Valuable and expensive. B. Useful and cheap. C. Special but worthless.
35. When did sugar painting appear?
A. In the Warring States Period.
B. In the Tang Dynasty.
C. In the Ming Dynasty.
36. Why should sugar painters make the work very quickly?
A. To show their excellent skills.
B. To avoid syrup becoming hard.
C. To protect the spoon and the table.
37. What’s the writer’s attitude (态度) towards today’s sugar painting according to Paragraph 4?
A. Uncaring. B. Doubtful. C. Worried.
【答案】34. A 35. C 36. B 37. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文,介绍了糖画的历史、制作过程、现状以及作者对糖画的态度。糖画作为一种民间艺术,曾经形状丰富,但现在因需求减少而逐渐衰落,作者呼吁人们记住、珍惜并传承这一非物质文化遗产。
【34题详解】
词句猜测题。根据文章第二段“And sugar, the precious product once only served to the emperors and princes, also went into common people’ s homes.”可知,糖曾经是只供皇帝和王子享用的,说明它很宝贵且昂贵。因此,“precious”意为“宝贵且昂贵”。故选A。
【35题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第二段“In the Ming Dynasty, some people added pictures with good luck into the bowl of sugar, and sugar painting appeared.”可知,糖画出现在明朝。故选C。
【36题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第三段“Since syrup may become hard if it cools, the painters have to produce the work very quickly.”可知,糖画艺人必须很快完成作品是为了避免糖浆变硬。故选B。
【37题详解】
观点态度题。根据文章第四段“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.”可推知,作者对糖画这一民间艺术的衰落感到担忧。故选C。

The word silk itself is beautiful. The story of silk started in China over 4,000 years ago. One story says a silkworm’s cocoon (茧) fell into a woman’s teacup. It then opened into a single unbroken thread (线). This was an important discovery. The Chinese learned they could use the cocoons to make cloth that was both beautiful to look at and soft to touch.
Making silk was a protected secret in China for many years. In other countries, silk was very valuable. Often it was worth more than gold. It was said that the secret was finally given away when a queen left China for India. In her hair, she secretly carried many silkworms.
By the year 1 AD, silk was sold as far west as Rome, and all along the Silk Road. Finally, around the year 300, silk also travelled from China to Japan. In 1522, the Spanish brought silkworms to Mexico.
Today people around the world still make many beautiful things from silk. But silk isn’t only beautiful. It looks easy to break, but actually it’s very strong. For example, people have already used it to make bicycle wheels. And some doctors even use silk threads in hospital. Silk is also lightweight and warm. This makes it great for clothes like winter jackets, trousers and shoes.

五、写作(共两节,满分20分)
第一节信息归纳(共5小题;每小题1分,满分5分)
请阅读下面文本,完成思维导图。
Teenagers need eight to ten hours of sleep per night. However, many can’t fall asleep until 10:30 p.m. or even later and most of them will feel sleepy.
Scientists recommend that both middle and high schools begin no earlier than 8:30 a.m. Later school start times support the natural needs of teenagers and increase their sleeping time.
Here are some other benefits of later school start times:
More time for a healthy breakfast
When running late in the mornings, students are likely to go without breakfast. With an empty stomach, one finds it difficult to focus (集中) in class. If they have enough time before going to school, students can eat a well-balanced breakfast and focus more on learning.
Fewer behavioral (行为的) problems
Less sleep may cause worries, stress and unhappiness.
When they get enough sleep, students are calm and peaceful and their moods do not change suddenly. They’re less likely to feel worried, unhappy or get angry. For parents, children with more sleep are easier to live with.
Better performance (表现) in study
Less sleep hurts attention, memory and brain development. Students with less sleep have difficulty paying attention in class and are likely to have lower grades. Students with enough sleep can be more energetic during the day and more willing to learn. They are also less likely to fall asleep in class and more able to understand what they learn.
In conclusion, starting school later helps students get a better night’s sleep. It improves their chances of eating, behaving and performing better.
