It sounds unbelievable, but it really happened.  一头猪，牵动上万人。这事听着难以置信，却真实发生了。 In Hechuan District, Chongqing, a young woman called Dai Dai posted a short video online. Her parents were too old to hold down a pig for the Spring Festival tradition, so she asked the internet for help and promised to treat helpers to "Pao Zhu Tang" (a traditional soup after pig slaughter). She even joked that she hoped the road in front of her house would be crowded with cars.   在重庆合川区，一位名叫“呆呆”的年轻女子在网上发布了一条短视频。她的父母年事已高，没力气按猪来完成春节的传统习俗，于是她上网求助，并承诺请前来帮忙的人喝刨猪汤（杀猪后招待亲友的传统汤品）。她还打趣说，希望自家门前能车水马龙。 To everyone’s surprise, people from all over China came to help within days. Some drove overnight, some waited at the village entrance at dawn, and one even flew from Beijing.  令所有人意外的是，短短几天内，全国各地的人都赶来帮忙。有人连夜驱车而至，有人天一亮就守在村口等候，甚至还有人专程从北京坐飞机赶来。 They brought local vegetables, spices and gifts, and worked together to hold the pig, wash vegetables, cut meat and cook soup.  他们带来了家乡的蔬菜、调料和特产，齐心协力按住肥猪、清洗蔬菜、切肉分块、熬煮鲜汤。 Local authorities soon joined in—traffic police, power workers and cultural teams all offered help. More pigs were prepared, bonfires were lit, and fireworks lit up the night sky.    当地政府部门也迅速加入支援——交警、电力工人和文艺队伍纷纷伸出援手。大家准备了更多生猪，燃起熊熊篝火，绚烂的烟花照亮了整片夜空。 What started as a family problem turned into a cultural festival. Hotels were fully booked, local products sold out, and tourism boomed.   这场始于一个家庭难题的小事，最终演变成了一场文化盛会。周边酒店全部爆满，土特产销售一空，当地旅游业也迎来了蓬勃发展。 Beyond the amazing numbers, this event showed a deeper truth: in a fast digital world, warmth can still spread far, sincerity can still bring people together, and one ordinary person can light up an entire town. It all began with kindness and became an unforgettable memory.   除了这些亮眼的数据，这件事更揭示了一个深刻的道理：在快节奏的数字时代，善意依旧能传千里，真诚依旧能凝聚人心，一个普通人也能点亮一整座小镇。一切始于一份善意，最终酿成了一段难忘的回忆。 【长难句分析】 ‌1.Her parents were too old to hold down a pig for the Spring Festival tradition, so she asked the internet for help and promised to treat helpers to "Pao Zhu Tang" (a traditional soup after pig slaughter).   ‌翻译:‌ 她的父母年事已高，没力气按猪来完成春节的传统习俗，于是她上网求助，并承诺请前来帮忙的人喝刨猪汤（杀猪后招待亲友的传统汤品）。 ‌重点:‌ "too...to..."（太...而不能...）；"ask sb. for help"（向某人寻求帮助）。 ‌2.What started as a family problem turned into a cultural festival. 翻译：这场始于一个家庭难题的小事，最终演变成了一场文化盛会。 重点：What started as a family problem是主语从句。 【重难词汇梳理】 unbelievable (adj.)‌ 令人难以置信的 post (v.)‌ 发布 joke (vt.)‌ 开玩笑 crowded (adj.)‌ 拥挤的 overnight (adv.)‌ 连夜地 entrance (n.)‌ 入口 authority (n.)‌ 政府部门 bonfire (n.)‌ 篝火 light up‌ 照亮 to one’s surprise‌ 令某人惊讶地 Passage2 A Life in Black and White 黑白世界的传奇：追忆聂卫平 Last week, a piece of sorrowful news swept through Beijing and the whole sports world.

This poem describes a very beautiful scene of the Yellow River. The Yellow River is the cradle of China’s civilization (中华文明的摇篮). It’s in northern China. It runs through nine provinces from west to east. It looks like the Chinese character “几”. It is the second longest river in China, and the fifth longest in the world. The Yellow River is also called the “mother river of China”. So flood (洪水) control and prevention have always been the key to the happy lives of people. Now, scientists can better solve these problems by giving the river a digital (数字) twin. The Yellow River’s digital twin uses new technologies such as big data (数据), AI and Internet of things to collect and send the information to the control center. According to the information, a 3D model of the river is shown on the computer screen, and it reflects the real conditions of the Yellow River. It’s like the Yellow River has a twin. One big success in the Yellow River’s protection is “smart stones”. They are put in important places along the river to record the movement of the river. As soon as smart stones feel the unusual movement of the river, they’ll send an alarm to the control center at once. In this way, the government can take action to protect the Yellow River in time. And in the sky, drones (无人机) are flying to survey the flood prevention projects. Thanks to the drones, scientists can get the information about the Yellow River in time. Under the water and up in the sky, intelligent devices (设备) are helping to protect the Yellow River. In the future, we’ll try our best to create better ways for the mother river’s protection. 1．According to the map, the “sea” in Paragraph 1 refers to _________. A．the Yellow Sea B．the Bohai Sea C．the South China Sea D．the East China Sea 2．How does the writer introduce the Yellow River in Paragraph 2? A．By listing numbers. B．By telling a story. C．By comparing opinions. D．By asking questions. 3．The intelligent devices are mentioned in the passage EXCEPT _________. A．drones B．smart stones C．intelligent cars D．a digital twin 4．Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage? A．The Yellow River runs through nine provinces. B．The digital twin only uses big data to make a 3D model. C．Smart stones can feel the unusual movement of the river. D．Drones help to get the information about the Yellow River. 5．What could be the best title for the passage? A．The Location of the Yellow River B．Beautiful Scenes of the Yellow River C．A Poem of Praising the Yellow River D．New Ways of Protecting the Yellow River Passage2 A famous story from New Book of Tang tells of Emperor Xuanzong’s concubine, Yang Yuhuan. She loved lychees, a fruit that grew in faraway southern China and would easily go bad during transportation. To make her happy, the emperor ordered his riders to bring lychees to Chang’an. When the lychees finally arrived, they were still fresh. This makes people amazed at how fast the ancient postal system was! In fact, China’s postal system started over 3,000 years ago in the Zhou Dynasty. There were officials called “Xingfu(行夫)”, who were responsible for postal services, mainly carrying government orders and army messages. Before the third century BCE, many states had institutions(机构) similar to post stations, but with different names. When the Qin state unified China, it made them all use the same name—“You”, which is still used in China’s postal industry today. Although the postal system was well-developed during the Qin and Han dynasties, only the government could use it. Ordinary people had to depend on friends or family to send letters and goods. During the Sui and Tang dynasties, with the opening of the Grand Canal(大运河), express delivery(快递) by water grew quickly. The delivery system took shape, centred around the capital and reaching all parts of the country. The poet Cen Shen wrote:“One post station after another, the post riders flow like stars, setting off from Xianyang at dawn and reaching the top of Mount Longshan by dusk.” It was this highly developed system that allowed Yang to get her fresh lychees. In the Ming Dynasty, private business “civil letter bureaus(民信局)” appeared, allowing ordinary people to send letters and goods. Later,“security escort agencies(镖局)” also appeared. They were paid to protect people’s property and safety during travel. However, in the mid-19th century, China was forced to open its door to the West. This led to big changes in the postal industry. Finally, in 1913, the ancient express delivery system officially came to an end. 1．According to the story in New Book of Tang, why did Emperor Xuanzong order riders to bring lychees to Chang’an? A．To test the speed of the ancient postal system. B．To satisfy his concubine Yang Yuhuan’s love for lychees. C．To promote the trade of lychees between the south and north. D．To show off the power of the Tang Dynasty. 2．When did China’s postal system first start? A．In the Qin Dynasty. B．In the Han Dynasty. C．In the Zhou Dynasty. D．In the Sui Dynasty. 3．What was the main task of the officials called “Xingfu” in the Zhou Dynasty? A．Delivering lychees for the royal family. B．Carrying government orders and army messages. C．Managing private civil letter bureaus. D．Protecting people’s property during travel. 4．Which event promoted the rapid development of water express delivery during the Sui and Tang dynasties? A．The unification of China by the Qin state. B．The appearance of security escort agencies. C．The opening of the Grand Canal. D．The establishment of civil letter bureaus. Passage3 Long ago, in ancient China, there was a story about the invention of silk. People believed that silk was first invented by Leizu, the wife of the Yellow Emperor. Leizu learned how to make cocoons (蚕茧) into soft and strong cloth. This magical cloth became known as “silk”, and it was so valuable that it was called “China’s Gold”. Following the kings’ orders, the Chinese kept the secret of making silk for centuries. But then, something amazing happened! During the Han Dynasty, the brave officer Zhang Qian traveled west as far as Central Asia and brought silk there. As years passed by, silk became so important that the trade road from Europe to China got its name—the Silk Road. The Silk Road became a busy highway for traders who carried things across deserts and mountains. From China, people sold silk and tea. In return, they received treasures such as spices (香料), gold and silver from the West. At the very beginning, it was mainly about trade; then people began to share ideas, technologies and cultures. For example, Chinese inventions like papermaking were spread to the West, while new ideas about math and science came to China. Most importantly, the Silk Road helped different cultures learn from each other. Art, music and even language were shared along this ancient road. In places like the Dunhuang Grottoes (敦煌石窟) in China, you can see how art pieces combined (融合) Eastern and Western styles into something special. It can not be seen anywhere else. The story of the Silk Road tells us how people from faraway lands could become friends through trade and shared ideas. Today, we remember the Silk Road as one of the greatest examples of cooperation (合作) and exchange in history. It shows us how important it is to learn about and respect each other’s traditions, and that different cultures can work together to create amazing things. 1．Who invented silk in ancient China? A．Leizu. B．The kings. C．Zhang Qian. D．The Yellow Emperor. 2．What was spread from China to the West according to Paragraph 3? A．Silk and gold. B．Spices and silver. C．Tea and papermaking. D．New ideas of science. 3．What is the right order of the following facts from the passage? ①Zhang Qian traveled west with silk. ②Art and language were shared along the Silk Road. ③Traders from China and the West exchanged things. ④The Chinese were ordered to keep the secret of making silk. A．①→④→③→② B．①→③→④→② C．④→①→③→② D．④→③→②→① 4．What does the story of the Silk Road mainly tell us? A．The change of world trade. B．The introduction of silk cloth. C．The influence of technology in history. D．The importance of cross-cultural communication. Passage4 China has become stronger and stronger in recent years. Many foreigners (外国人) can’t believe that China has developed so fast and feel 1 .

This poem describes a very beautiful scene of the Yellow River. The Yellow River is the cradle of China’s civilization (中华文明的摇篮). It’s in northern China. It runs through nine provinces from west to east. It looks like the Chinese character “几”. It is the second longest river in China, and the fifth longest in the world. The Yellow River is also called the “mother river of China”. So flood (洪水) control and prevention have always been the key to the happy lives of people. Now, scientists can better solve these problems by giving the river a digital (数字) twin. The Yellow River’s digital twin uses new technologies such as big data (数据), AI and Internet of things to collect and send the information to the control center. According to the information, a 3D model of the river is shown on the computer screen, and it reflects the real conditions of the Yellow River. It’s like the Yellow River has a twin. One big success in the Yellow River’s protection is “smart stones”. They are put in important places along the river to record the movement of the river. As soon as smart stones feel the unusual movement of the river, they’ll send an alarm to the control center at once. In this way, the government can take action to protect the Yellow River in time. And in the sky, drones (无人机) are flying to survey the flood prevention projects. Thanks to the drones, scientists can get the information about the Yellow River in time. Under the water and up in the sky, intelligent devices (设备) are helping to protect the Yellow River. In the future, we’ll try our best to create better ways for the mother river’s protection. 1．According to the map, the “sea” in Paragraph 1 refers to _________. A．the Yellow Sea B．the Bohai Sea C．the South China Sea D．the East China Sea 2．How does the writer introduce the Yellow River in Paragraph 2? A．By listing numbers. B．By telling a story. C．By comparing opinions. D．By asking questions. 3．The intelligent devices are mentioned in the passage EXCEPT _________. A．drones B．smart stones C．intelligent cars D．a digital twin 4．Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage? A．The Yellow River runs through nine provinces. B．The digital twin only uses big data to make a 3D model. C．Smart stones can feel the unusual movement of the river. D．Drones help to get the information about the Yellow River. 5．What could be the best title for the passage? A．The Location of the Yellow River B．Beautiful Scenes of the Yellow River C．A Poem of Praising the Yellow River D．New Ways of Protecting the Yellow River 【答案】1．B 2．A 3．C 4．B 5．D 【导语】本文主要介绍了黄河作为中华文明的摇篮和中国的母亲河，其保护工作的重要性以及科学家们采用的新技术，如数字双胞胎、智能石头和无人机等，来更好地保护黄河。 1．推理判断题。根据“It runs through nine provinces from west to east. It looks like the Chinese character ‘几’. It is the second longest river in China, and the fifth longest in the world.”以及地理常识可知，黄河注入渤海，所以第一段中的“sea”指的是渤海。故选B。 2．细节理解题。根据“It runs through nine provinces from west to east. It looks like the Chinese character ‘几’. It is the second longest river in China, and the fifth longest in the world.”可知，作者在第二段通过列举数字来介绍黄河。故选A。 3．细节理解题。根据“Now, scientists can better solve these problems by giving the river a digital (数字) twin.”、“One big success in the Yellow River’s protection is ‘smart stones’.”以及“And in the sky, drones (无人机) are flying to survey the flood prevention projects.”可知，文中提到的智能设备包括数字双胞胎、智能石头和无人机，没有提到智能汽车。故选C。 4．细节理解题。根据“The Yellow River’s digital twin uses new technologies such as big data (数据), AI and Internet of things to collect and send the information to the control center. According to the information, a 3D model of the river is shown on the computer screen, and it reflects the real conditions of the Yellow River.”可知，数字双胞胎不仅使用大数据，还使用人工智能和物联网等技术来制作3D模型，所以B选项“数字双胞胎只使用大数据来制作3D模型”是错误的。故选B。 5．最佳标题题。文章主要介绍了黄河的保护措施，包括数字双胞胎、智能石头和无人机等新技术的应用，所以最佳标题是“保护黄河的新方法”。故选D。 Passage2 A famous story from New Book of Tang tells of Emperor Xuanzong’s concubine, Yang Yuhuan. She loved lychees, a fruit that grew in faraway southern China and would easily go bad during transportation. To make her happy, the emperor ordered his riders to bring lychees to Chang’an. When the lychees finally arrived, they were still fresh. This makes people amazed at how fast the ancient postal system was! In fact, China’s postal system started over 3,000 years ago in the Zhou Dynasty. There were officials called “Xingfu(行夫)”, who were responsible for postal services, mainly carrying government orders and army messages. Before the third century BCE, many states had institutions(机构) similar to post stations, but with different names. When the Qin state unified China, it made them all use the same name—“You”, which is still used in China’s postal industry today. Although the postal system was well-developed during the Qin and Han dynasties, only the government could use it. Ordinary people had to depend on friends or family to send letters and goods. During the Sui and Tang dynasties, with the opening of the Grand Canal(大运河), express delivery(快递) by water grew quickly. The delivery system took shape, centred around the capital and reaching all parts of the country. The poet Cen Shen wrote:“One post station after another, the post riders flow like stars, setting off from Xianyang at dawn and reaching the top of Mount Longshan by dusk.” It was this highly developed system that allowed Yang to get her fresh lychees. In the Ming Dynasty, private business “civil letter bureaus(民信局)” appeared, allowing ordinary people to send letters and goods. Later,“security escort agencies(镖局)” also appeared. They were paid to protect people’s property and safety during travel. However, in the mid-19th century, China was forced to open its door to the West. This led to big changes in the postal industry. Finally, in 1913, the ancient express delivery system officially came to an end. 1．According to the story in New Book of Tang, why did Emperor Xuanzong order riders to bring lychees to Chang’an? A．To test the speed of the ancient postal system. B．To satisfy his concubine Yang Yuhuan’s love for lychees. C．To promote the trade of lychees between the south and north. D．To show off the power of the Tang Dynasty. 2．When did China’s postal system first start? A．In the Qin Dynasty. B．In the Han Dynasty. C．In the Zhou Dynasty. D．In the Sui Dynasty. 3．What was the main task of the officials called “Xingfu” in the Zhou Dynasty? A．Delivering lychees for the royal family. B．Carrying government orders and army messages. C．Managing private civil letter bureaus. D．Protecting people’s property during travel. 4．Which event promoted the rapid development of water express delivery during the Sui and Tang dynasties? A．The unification of China by the Qin state. B．The appearance of security escort agencies. C．The opening of the Grand Canal. D．The establishment of civil letter bureaus. 【答案】1．B 2．C 3．B 4．C 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了中国古代邮政系统的发展历程及其兴衰变迁。 1．细节理解题。根据第一段“A famous story from New Book of Tang tells of Emperor Xuanzong’s concubine, Yang Yuhuan. She loved lychees...To make her happy, the emperor ordered his riders to bring lychees to Chang’an.”可知，玄宗皇帝命骑手将荔枝送至长安的原因是为了满足其宠妃杨玉环对荔枝的热爱。故选B。 2．细节理解题。根据第二段“In fact, China’s postal system started over 3,000 years ago in the Zhou Dynasty.”可知，中国的邮政系统始于3000多年前的周朝。故选C。 3．细节理解题。根据第二段“In fact, China’s postal system started...in the Zhou Dynasty.There were officials called “Xingfu(行夫)”, who were responsible for postal services, mainly carrying government orders and army messages.”可知，在周朝，被称为“行夫”的官员负责邮政服务，主要运送政府命令和军队信息。故选B。 4．细节理解题。根据第五段“During the Sui and Tang dynasties, with the opening of the Grand Canal(大运河), express delivery(快递) by water grew quickly.”可知，隋唐时期，随着大运河的开通，水路快递发展迅速，因此隋唐时期“大运河的开通”促进了水上快递的快速发展。故选C。 Passage3 Long ago, in ancient China, there was a story about the invention of silk. People believed that silk was first invented by Leizu, the wife of the Yellow Emperor. Leizu learned how to make cocoons (蚕茧) into soft and strong cloth. This magical cloth became known as “silk”, and it was so valuable that it was called “China’s Gold”. Following the kings’ orders, the Chinese kept the secret of making silk for centuries. But then, something amazing happened! During the Han Dynasty, the brave officer Zhang Qian traveled west as far as Central Asia and brought silk there. As years passed by, silk became so important that the trade road from Europe to China got its name—the Silk Road. The Silk Road became a busy highway for traders who carried things across deserts and mountains. From China, people sold silk and tea. In return, they received treasures such as spices (香料), gold and silver from the West. At the very beginning, it was mainly about trade; then people began to share ideas, technologies and cultures. For example, Chinese inventions like papermaking were spread to the West, while new ideas about math and science came to China. Most importantly, the Silk Road helped different cultures learn from each other. Art, music and even language were shared along this ancient road. In places like the Dunhuang Grottoes (敦煌石窟) in China, you can see how art pieces combined (融合) Eastern and Western styles into something special. It can not be seen anywhere else. The story of the Silk Road tells us how people from faraway lands could become friends through trade and shared ideas. Today, we remember the Silk Road as one of the greatest examples of cooperation (合作) and exchange in history. It shows us how important it is to learn about and respect each other’s traditions, and that different cultures can work together to create amazing things. 1．Who invented silk in ancient China? A．Leizu. B．The kings. C．Zhang Qian. D．The Yellow Emperor. 2．What was spread from China to the West according to Paragraph 3? A．Silk and gold. B．Spices and silver. C．Tea and papermaking.

A．①→④→③→② B．①→③→④→② C．④→①→③→② D．④→③→②→① 4．What does the story of the Silk Road mainly tell us? A．The change of world trade. B．The introduction of silk cloth. C．The influence of technology in history. D．The importance of cross-cultural communication. 【答案】1．A 2．C 3．C 4．D 【导语】本文主要讲述了中国古代丝绸的发明、丝绸之路的起源、贸易往来、文化交流以及其重要意义。 1．细节理解题。根据“People believed that silk was first invented by Leizu, the wife of the Yellow Emperor.”可知，人们认为丝绸最早是由黄帝的妻子嫘祖发明的。故选A。 2．细节理解题。根据“From China, people sold silk and tea.”以及“For example, Chinese inventions like papermaking were spread to the West”可知，造纸术和茶从中国传播到了西方。故选C。 3．细节理解题。根据“Following the kings’ orders, the Chinese kept the secret of making silk for centuries.”可知，先是“中国人奉命保守丝绸制作的秘密”，即④；根据“During the Han Dynasty, the brave officer Zhang Qian traveled west as far as Central Asia and brought silk there.”可知，接着是“张骞带着丝绸西行”，即①；根据“The Silk Road became a busy highway for traders who carried things across deserts and mountains. From China, people sold silk and tea. In return, they received treasures such as spices (香料), gold and silver from the West.”可知，然后是“中国和西方的商人交换物品”，即③；根据“Most importantly, the Silk Road helped different cultures learn from each other. Art, music and even language were shared along this ancient road.”可知，最后是“艺术和语言沿着丝绸之路传播”，即②。所以正确的顺序是④→①→③→②。故选C。 4．主旨大意题。根据“The story of the Silk Road tells us how people from faraway lands could become friends through trade and shared ideas.”以及“It shows us how important it is to learn about and respect each other’s traditions, and that different cultures can work together to create amazing things.”可知，丝绸之路的故事主要告诉我们跨文化交流的重要性。故选D。 Passage4 China has become stronger and stronger in recent years.
