Many people think that Paul Cézanne is one of the most famous artists of all time. However, he was 60 years old when art galleries (美术馆) and museums started to show an interest in his art.
Paul Cézanne was born in France on 19th January, 1839. He had a happy childhood and spent many hours in the countryside with his friends. His father didn’t want him to be an artist but he finally agreed him to study painting in Paris. However, Cézanne didn’t get success right away, so he returned home but carried on painting.
During his lifetime, Cézanne’s art style (风格) changed a lot. When he was young, his paintings didn’t have a lot of colors and he just painted things as they were. They were kind of dark. But as he got older, he began to use brighter colors. In 1874, Cézanne began to know impressionism (印象主义) through an art show. Unlike realism, impressionism showed how painters saw things, not just copying the world exactly.
After that show, Cézanne slowly changed the way he painted. He was encouraged by the nature around him. Cézanne started to create more depth in his paintings through using large blocks of colors. He used warmer colors in the foreground (前景) and cool colors in the background. Cézanne was especially well-known for his still life paintings, like flowers or fruit.
Cézanne kept on painting until he died in 1906. During his life, he created more than 1,000 paintings. It is thought that many modern painters, such as Pablo Picasso, were influenced by Cézanne’s art.
24. When did Cézanne’s paintings start to interest museums?
A. In 1839. B. In 1874. C. In 1899.
25. How was Cézanne’s childhood?
A Happy. B. Hard. C. Successful.
26. What was the change in Cézanne’s art style?
A. From impressionism to realism.
B. From dark colors to bright colors.
C. From more depth to less depth in paintings.
27. Where is the passage most probably taken from?
A. An art magazine. B. A travel guide. C. A science report.
C
For over ten years, Li Dongmei managed a number of schools for young children. But as fewer and fewer babies were born in China, she finally faced the music in 2020, and changed her attention to a new group of students—the elderly.
In Jinan a city in eastern China, Li Dongmei now has an education center for old people. She now offers classes like singing, dancing, music and art. She also plans activities and educational trips for her students. Older people take classes all year round. And the classes are full.
“The biggest market now is the silver economy (银发经济),” said Ms. Li, who is 36 years old. “It’s even bigger than the children’s market.”
China’s population change is already influencing businesses that work with children. Some are cutting back or changing what they do. Companies (公司) that used to make milk powder (奶粉) for babies are now making things for the elderly. A technology company which used to make products to help parents look after their kids is now making tools to help their aging parents.
In 2022, China’s population has got smaller for the first time since 1961. To deal with its aging population, China has made decisions to raise the retirement (退休) age for the first time since the 1950s. In 2023, the number of births in China fell to nine million, which was about 6% lower than the year before. The number of pre-school children also dropped by almost 12%.
28. What does the underlined part “faced the music” mean in Paragraph 1?
A. 面对现实 B. 欣赏音乐 C. 管理表情
29. What can people learn at Li’s center?
A. English. B. Art. C. Business.
30. How are some companies replying to the population change?
A. By cutting down the cost.
B. By making tools for children.
C. By making products for the elderly.
31. What could be the best title for this passage?
A. The Role of Technology in Elderly Care
B. The Rise of the Silver Economy in China
C. The Change of Pre-school Education in China

第一节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)
阅读下面短文,根据短文内容回答问题。
The English people usually greet (问候) each other by talking about the weather, while we Chinese people like to greet with the sentence “Have you eaten your meal?”. This shows that food culture is important in our daily life. China has many kinds of delicious food with a much longer history and richer food culture than many other places in the world.
In ancient China, many famous people made great differences to Chinese food culture. Su Dongpo of the Song Dynasty was one of them. He had a gift not only for excellent writing but also for unusual cooking. He created Dongpo Pork (东坡肉) which became a very popular and highly praised dish.
Another person is Yuan Mei in Qing Dynasty. He also played a very important role in developing Chinese food culture. In his book Sui Yuan Shi Dan, Yuan Mei talked about special cooking skills and dishes from both northern and southern areas. This book covers over 300 dishes which are popular in 18th-century China.
The Chinese philosophy (哲学) of yin and yang also influences food cooking and taste a lot. In Chinese culture, people believe that each food has its own characteristics (特征) of yin and yang. Yin foods are thin, cool and low in calories (卡路里). Yang foods are rich, hot, warming and high in calories. Cooking food in hot water makes it more yin, while cooking with hot oil makes it more yang. As a result, different cooking methods can enrich cooking practice and change yin-yang characteristics of food.
56. How do English people usually greet each other?
_______________________________________________
57. Was Su Dongpo from the Song Dynasty?
_______________________________________________
58. How many popular dishes are mentioned in Yuan Mei’s book?

Many people think that Paul Cézanne is one of the most famous artists of all time. However, he was 60 years old when art galleries (美术馆) and museums started to show an interest in his art.
Paul Cézanne was born in France on 19th January, 1839. He had a happy childhood and spent many hours in the countryside with his friends. His father didn’t want him to be an artist but he finally agreed him to study painting in Paris. However, Cézanne didn’t get success right away, so he returned home but carried on painting.
During his lifetime, Cézanne’s art style (风格) changed a lot. When he was young, his paintings didn’t have a lot of colors and he just painted things as they were. They were kind of dark. But as he got older, he began to use brighter colors. In 1874, Cézanne began to know impressionism (印象主义) through an art show.

In Jinan, a city in eastern China, Li Dongmei now has an education center for old people. She now offers classes like singing, dancing, music and art. She also plans activities and educational trips for her students. Older people take classes all year round. And the classes are full.

To deal with its aging population, China has made decisions to raise the retirement (退休) age for the first time since the 1950s. In 2023, the number of births in China fell to nine million, which was about 6% lower than the year before. The number of pre-school children also dropped by almost 12%.

The English people usually greet (问候) each other by talking about the weather, while we Chinese people like to greet with the sentence “Have you eaten your meal?”. This shows that food culture is important in our daily life. China has many kinds of delicious food with a much longer history and richer food culture than many other places in the world.
In ancient China, many famous people made great differences to Chinese food culture. Su Dongpo of the Song Dynasty was one of them. He had a gift not only for excellent writing but also for unusual cooking. He created Dongpo Pork (东坡肉) which became a very popular and highly praised dish.
Another person is Yuan Mei in Qing Dynasty. He also played a very important role in developing Chinese food culture. In his book Sui Yuan Shi Dan, Yuan Mei talked about special cooking skills and dishes from both northern and southern areas. This book covers over 300 dishes which are popular in 18th-century China.
The Chinese philosophy (哲学) of yin and yang also influences food cooking and taste a lot. In Chinese culture, people believe that each food has its own characteristics (特征) of yin and yang. Yin foods are thin, cool and low in calories (卡路里). Yang foods are rich, hot, warming and high in calories. Cooking food in hot water makes it more yin, while cooking with hot oil makes it more yang. As a result, different cooking methods can enrich cooking practice and change yin-yang characteristics of food.
