The TV series (电视连续剧) Meet Yourself is winning over viewers’ hearts. It not only improves the local tourism (旅游) in Yunnan Province, but also shows some culture in Dali. Let’s take a look at a few.
Jianchuan wood carving (木雕), from Jianchuan of Dali, has a history of more than 1, 000 years. The carvings usually include pictures like flowers, plants and so on that are widely used in buildings, furniture and art. The TV series Meet Yourself also points out that wood carving faces challenges (挑战). It discusses how machines are taking the place of handwork. The machines can save more time and cost less, so the work becomes more efficient and less costly.
There are not only crafts (工艺品) shown on TV, but also some local food. Dairy Fan, or rushan, is a kind of food made of milk and yogurt (酸奶), shaped like a fan. As the local delicious food, it’s a must-try food for visitors to Yunnan. The way to make Dairy Fan has been listed as a provincial intangible cultural heritage item (省级非物质文化遗产) in 2022.
The three tea courses are a tea serving tradition of the Bai ethnic (少数民族的) group. It has been a key tradition during special events such as weddings and festivals. First, boil water and warm the teapot on a gentle fire. After the pot gets hot, put the tea leaves inside. The first course of tea usually smells delicious but tastes bitter. The second course will have sugar in it, which makes it sweet. Finally, the third course will include honey, creating a richer smell.
With the development of our country, Chinese culture has spread widely. I believe more and more people will get interested in Chinese culture.
33.What does the underlined word “costly” in Paragraph 2 mean?
A.Expensive. B.Good. C.Popular.
34.Why do people put some honey into the three tea courses?
A.To make it sweet. B.To create a richer smell. C.To add a colour.
35.What can we infer from the passage?
A.The machine can’t take the place of the traditional wood carving.
B.The TV series Meet Yourself has brought many bad effects on Yunnan.
C.Dairy Fan was listed as a provincial intangible cultural heritage 3 years ago.
36.Which of the following is the structure of the passage?
A. B. C.
【答案】33.A 34.B 35.C 36.C
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了电视剧《去有风的地方》热播后,对云南旅游和文化产生的积极影响,并重点展示了剧中提及的三种云南(大理)地方文化与特产:剑川木雕、乳扇和白族三道茶。
33.词句猜测题。根据“The machines can save more time and cost less, so the work becomes more efficient and less costly.”结合上下文,机器替代手工使得木雕工作“成本更低”,与前半句的“cost less”语义一致,因此costly是“昂贵的”之意。故选A。
34.细节理解题。根据“Finally, the third course will include honey, creating a richer smell.”可知,加入蜂蜜是为了“创造更浓郁的香气”。故选B。
35.推理判断题。根据“The way to make Dairy Fan has been listed as a provincial intangible cultural heritage item in 2022.”可知,2022年距今正好3年。故选C。
36.篇章结构题。分析文章结构:第1段总起,引出电视剧及其对云南文化和旅游的影响;第2、3、4段分别详细介绍三种文化产物(剑川木雕、乳扇、三道茶);最后一段总结,展望中国文化传播的未来。因此结构为:总(介绍主题)—分(三个并列部分详细介绍)—总(总结展望)。故选C。

Every time Andrew went to buy newspapers, the shopkeeper either threw the newspaper or was rough when giving the change. He didn’t even look the old man straight in the eye.
One of Andrew’s friends was very angry with the shopkeeper. So he asked: “Andrew, since the shopkeeper treats you like that, why don’t you go to other places to buy newspapers? ”

37.细节理解题。根据“The shopkeeper there, seeing that Andrew only bought newspapers, showed no respect and was always angry with him.”可知,店主对安德鲁粗鲁是因为安德鲁除了报纸什么都不买。故选A。
38.词句猜测题。根据“Every time Andrew went to buy newspapers, the shopkeeper either threw the newspaper or was rough when giving the change.”可知,每次安德鲁去买报纸,店主要么扔报纸,要么在找零钱时很粗鲁,“impolite”与“rough”意思相近。故选C。
39.推理判断题。根据“If I get angry with him and go to another place to buy newspapers, I’ll have to take a detour. This will not only waste my time but also bring some trouble.

Every year, millions of birds are killed or hurt when they fly into buildings. Why does this happen? 41 Birds are flying into windows and tall buildings that are all covered by glass.
Many birds fly from one place to another. Most of the time, they live in the wild, such as forests and wetlands. 42 They might see small trees and flowers inside a window and want to rest on these plants. The birds do not know there is glass between them and the plants. 43
Some birds fly at night. They use the moon and stars to help guide them in the right direction. Tall buildings with lights on at night can confuse (迷惑) the birds. 44 The birds see the light, but they cannot tell that the light is coming from inside a building. They fly toward the light and hit a building. On many mornings, there might be several dead birds lying on the ground.
45 Many office buildings now turn off their lights at night. This helps reduce the number of birds that fly into buildings and it also helps save energy.
A.The answer is glass.
B.People are trying to solve the problem.
C.These birds have no idea what glass is.
D.As a result, they fly right into the glass.

【答案】to check
【详解】句意:完成报告后,她接着去查看邮件。continue to do sth“继续做某事”,表示做完一件事之后接着做另一件不同的事,而continue doing表示持续做同一件事,由“report… email”可知,是做完一件事去做不同的事,故填to check。

What do you think the future will be like? Here are some answers from some students.
Mary: If we don’t take good care of the earth now, our children and grandchildren will be born into a world with much pollution (污染). There will be fewer trees and more buildings, because there will be more people. We might even lose many garden plants. Our cities will be less beautiful.
Jack: I agree with Mary. Things will be worse. The weather in the future will be worse. It will be much hotter. Humans won’t be able to live on the earth. We will have to look for another planet to live on. Even simple garden work like growing vegetables will become impossible because of extreme (极端的) heat.
Linda: I think the life in the future will be better. Most people in the world will use“green cars” by 2050, so there will be less pollution. People will live to be 200 years old. As for space (太空) travel, I would say, we will visit Mars in about fifty years. We’ll also have smart gardens at home—robots will water and care for plants, making our living spaces greener and more comfortable.

The TV series (电视连续剧) Meet Yourself is winning over viewers’ hearts. It not only improves the local tourism (旅游) in Yunnan Province, but also shows some culture in Dali. Let’s take a look at a few.
Jianchuan wood carving (木雕), from Jianchuan of Dali, has a history of more than 1, 000 years. The carvings usually include pictures like flowers, plants and so on that are widely used in buildings, furniture and art. The TV series Meet Yourself also points out that wood carving faces challenges (挑战). It discusses how machines are taking the place of handwork. The machines can save more time and cost less, so the work becomes more efficient and less costly.
There are not only crafts (工艺品) shown on TV, but also some local food. Dairy Fan, or rushan, is a kind of food made of milk and yogurt (酸奶), shaped like a fan. As the local delicious food, it’s a must-try food for visitors to Yunnan. The way to make Dairy Fan has been listed as a provincial intangible cultural heritage item (省级非物质文化遗产) in 2022.
The three tea courses are a tea serving tradition of the Bai ethnic (少数民族的) group. It has been a key tradition during special events such as weddings and festivals. First, boil water and warm the teapot on a gentle fire. After the pot gets hot, put the tea leaves inside. The first course of tea usually smells delicious but tastes bitter. The second course will have sugar in it, which makes it sweet. Finally, the third course will include honey, creating a richer smell.
With the development of our country, Chinese culture has spread widely. I believe more and more people will get interested in Chinese culture.
33.What does the underlined word “costly” in Paragraph 2 mean?
A.Expensive. B.Good. C.Popular.
34.Why do people put some honey into the three tea courses?
A.To make it sweet. B.To create a richer smell. C.To add a colour.
35.What can we infer from the passage?
A.The machine can’t take the place of the traditional wood carving.
B.The TV series Meet Yourself has brought many bad effects on Yunnan.
C.Dairy Fan was listed as a provincial intangible cultural heritage 3 years ago.
36.Which of the following is the structure of the passage?
A. B. C.
(D)

Every year, millions of birds are killed or hurt when they fly into buildings. Why does this happen? 41 Birds are flying into windows and tall buildings that are all covered by glass.
Many birds fly from one place to another. Most of the time, they live in the wild, such as forests and wetlands. 42 They might see small trees and flowers inside a window and want to rest on these plants. The birds do not know there is glass between them and the plants. 43
Some birds fly at night. They use the moon and stars to help guide them in the right direction. Tall buildings with lights on at night can confuse (迷惑) the birds. 44 The birds see the light, but they cannot tell that the light is coming from inside a building. They fly toward the light and hit a building. On many mornings, there might be several dead birds lying on the ground.
45 Many office buildings now turn off their lights at night. This helps reduce the number of birds that fly into buildings and it also helps save energy.
A.The answer is glass.
B.People are trying to solve the problem.
C.These birds have no idea what glass is.
D.As a result, they fly right into the glass.
E.In this way, they can avoid running into glass.
F.People don’t know how to deal with the problem.
G.This is a big problem, especially on foggy and rainy nights.
