Chinese writer Hai Ya’s The Space-Time Painter (《时空画师》) won the Hugo Award (雨果奖) for Best Novelette (最佳短中篇小说) on Oct 21. He became the third Chinese writer to win a Hugo award after Liu Cixin in 2015 and Hao Jingfang in 2016.
When creating The Space-Time Painter, Hai Ya drew his idea from a famous painting, A Panorama of Rivers and Mountains (《千里江山图》). It is by Wang Ximeng from the Song Dynasty (960-1279). Based on Wang, Hai created a painter named Zhao Ximeng. After many hard times, Zhao’s mind leaves his body and enters a space where a modern policeman is trying to solve a case (案件) about an ancient painting.
Hai Ya’s story with science fiction began in his childhood. “When I was a child, the bookstore in my hometown helped create a beautiful garden in my mind that belonged to me only. In it, science fiction offered the most beautiful ‘flowers’,” Hai Ya told Beijing Youth Daily. He added that science fiction opened a new world for him as a kid.
Hai Ya’s works feature a mix of history and science fiction. These two styles seem opposite: One looks back at the past, and the other faces the future. However, in Hai Ya’s works, they find a perfect balance (平衡).
“If we can only imagine the future and things in space like rockets, it will only limit our imagination,” Hai Ya told Shenzhen Special Zone Daily. “I don’t think history is something completely in the past. It is flowing (流动的), and we can make predictions about the future by looking back at history. History is also part of our future,” he added.
More Chinese writers today are trying to mix traditional culture with modern stories. Hai Ya believes that it is not a choice but a natural process. “Our history and culture have universal values (普世价值) that can touch everyone,” he said to Xinhua.
“Sci-fi is built upon a sense of wonder and estrangement (疏离) from science. Sci-fi writers are trying to attract readers not by relying on (依赖) the wonder of science, but by using different skills and … the potential to reflect (反映) reality.”
33. What do we know about The Space-Time Painter?
A. Its story is based on the faraway future. B. It is a historical novel about the Song Dynasty.
C. It is inspired by an ancient painting. D. It tells Wang Ximeng’s life story.
34. How did sci-fi influence Hai Ya as a child?
A. It enriched his mind. B. It encouraged him to combine history with sci-fi.
C. It taught him a lot about Chinese history. D. It gave him new ways to write novels.
35. Why did Hai Ya combine history with sci-fi?
A. To remind people of the flow of time. B. To encourage readers to learn from history.
C. To compare history with modern life. D. To find a balance between history and reality.
36. What can we learn from the last two paragraph?
A. Chinese values are accepted all over the world.
B. The popularity of Chinese sci-fi is growing.
C. More and more Chinese writers are writing sci-fi works.
D. Chinese history and culture is drawing writers’ attention.
D
Ancient art doesn’t have to be boring. Technology in the 21st century can help to bring it to life by combining (融合) the best of the old and the new.
Along the River During the Qingming Festival
Walking into the China Pavilion (展馆) at Expo in Shanghai, people were amazed by seeing a huge digital (数码的) painting. Scientists digitised (数码化) the famous painting Along the River During the Qingming Festival by Chinese artist Zhang Zeduan.
The original (原先的) painting shows life during the Northern Song period and it includes many details of ancient Chinese customs, lifestyles and technology.
In the digital painting, a lot of these details are animated. Farmers work in the fields, sailors work on their boats and people eat and do business in restaurants. Parts of the background are also animated (做成动画). You can see the wind blowing through the trees and across the water. These animations perfectly combine modern technology and ancient art.
Digital technology allows today’s artists to express their ideas in ways that ancient artists would not believe possible. Techniques such as animation and 3D digital projection (投影) make art come alive.
Dunhuang Cave Paintings
Dunhuang Caves, which are protected ancient treasures in the Gobi desert in Northwest China, are filled with paintings and sculptures with lasting value. This artwork was created over a period of around 1,000 years.
The good news is for art lovers who cannot travel and for the caves. Scientists have created a 360-degree, 3D digital projection of the caves, which makes the artwork come alive. There is also a function that lets viewers zoom in and enjoy the paintings and sculptures in greater detail.
Digitising ancient art allows us to explore the ancient practices. It also makes the whole world understand the art while protecting the original artworks for the future.
37. According to the passage, modern technology makes ancient art ________.
A. more lively B. more famous C. less interesting D. less valuable
38. The underlined phrase “zoom in” means “________” in Chinese.
A. make it bigger B. make it smaller C. turn it on D. turn it off
39. Which can we infer (推断) from the passage?
A. Studying ancient art as much as possible is very necessary.
B. Good art must combine modern technology and ancient art.
C. Protecting the ancient artworks is more important than developing technology
D. More valuable ancient artworks will be protected better with technology in the future.
40. Which of the following can be the best title of the passage?
A. Enjoying Ancient Art B. Protecting Modern Technology
C. Digitising Ancient Art D. Understanding Modern Technology

第二节、回答问题(5小题,每小题2分,共10分)
In October 2025, China’s Ministry of Education made new rules. They want to make art, music and PE classes more important in compulsory (义务的) education. This is great news for Chinese students.
For class time, art and music will take 9%—11% of all class hours in compulsory education. High school students must get 6 points in these subjects to graduate (毕业). PE classes will be 10%—17% of class time, and no PE class will start before 8:20 a.m. This helps students get enough sleep in the morning.
The new rules also ask for cross-subject learning. Art classes will put traditional culture and modern art together. Students will learn new technology tools like 3D modeling. Schools will use project-based learning (PBL) to let students solve real art problems. This helps them learn to work in teams and think in creative ways.
These changes are meaningful. They can cut down students’ exam stress and make school life more interesting. Students can not only improve their sense of beauty but also learn to connect different subjects. More time for sports keeps them healthy and strong. This new rule helps students grow in a balanced way, making them better prepared for their future lives.
61. When did the Ministry make the new rules about art, music and PE?
62. What percent of all class hours will art and music take?
63. What will students use to solve real art problems?
64. How will the new rules help students grow?
65. Do you think more art and PE time will make you less stressed? Why or why not?

Chinese writer Hai Ya’s The Space-Time Painter (《时空画师》) won the Hugo Award (雨果奖) for Best Novelette (最佳短中篇小说) on Oct 21. He became the third Chinese writer to win a Hugo award after Liu Cixin in 2015 and Hao Jingfang in 2016.
When creating The Space-Time Painter, Hai Ya drew his idea from a famous painting, A Panorama of Rivers and Mountains (《千里江山图》). It is by Wang Ximeng from the Song Dynasty (960-1279). Based on Wang, Hai created a painter named Zhao Ximeng. After many hard times, Zhao’s mind leaves his body and enters a space where a modern policeman is trying to solve a case (案件) about an ancient painting.
Hai Ya’s story with science fiction began in his childhood. “When I was a child, the bookstore in my hometown helped create a beautiful garden in my mind that belonged to me only. In it, science fiction offered the most beautiful ‘flowers’,” Hai Ya told Beijing Youth Daily. He added that science fiction opened a new world for him as a kid.
Hai Ya’s works feature a mix of history and science fiction. These two styles seem opposite: One looks back at the past, and the other faces the future. However, in Hai Ya’s works, they find a perfect balance (平衡).
“If we can only imagine the future and things in space like rockets, it will only limit our imagination,” Hai Ya told Shenzhen Special Zone Daily. “I don’t think history is something completely in the past. It is flowing (流动的), and we can make predictions about the future by looking back at history. History is also part of our future,” he added.
More Chinese writers today are trying to mix traditional culture with modern stories. Hai Ya believes that it is not a choice but a natural process. “Our history and culture have universal values (普世价值) that can touch everyone,” he said to Xinhua.
“Sci-fi is built upon a sense of wonder and estrangement (疏离) from science. Sci-fi writers are trying to attract readers not by relying on (依赖) the wonder of science, but by using different skills and … the potential to reflect (反映) reality.”
33. What do we know about The Space-Time Painter?
A. Its story is based on the faraway future. B. It is a historical novel about the Song Dynasty.
C. It is inspired by an ancient painting. D. It tells Wang Ximeng’s life story.
34. How did sci-fi influence Hai Ya as a child?
A. It enriched his mind. B. It encouraged him to combine history with sci-fi.
C. It taught him a lot about Chinese history. D. It gave him new ways to write novels.
35. Why did Hai Ya combine history with sci-fi?
A. To remind people of the flow of time. B. To encourage readers to learn from history.
C. To compare history with modern life. D. To find a balance between history and reality.
36. What can we learn from the last two paragraph?
A. Chinese values are accepted all over the world.
B. The popularity of Chinese sci-fi is growing.
C. More and more Chinese writers are writing sci-fi works.
D. Chinese history and culture is drawing writers’ attention.

第二节、回答问题(5小题,每小题2分,共10分)
In October 2025, China’s Ministry of Education made new rules. They want to make art, music and PE classes more important in compulsory (义务的) education. This is great news for Chinese students.
For class time, art and music will take 9%—11% of all class hours in compulsory education. High school students must get 6 points in these subjects to graduate (毕业). PE classes will be 10%—17% of class time, and no PE class will start before 8:20 a.m. This helps students get enough sleep in the morning.
The new rules also ask for cross-subject learning. Art classes will put traditional culture and modern art together. Students will learn new technology tools like 3D modeling. Schools will use project-based learning (PBL) to let students solve real art problems. This helps them learn to work in teams and think in creative ways.
These changes are meaningful. They can cut down students’ exam stress and make school life more interesting. Students can not only improve their sense of beauty but also learn to connect different subjects. More time for sports keeps them healthy and strong. This new rule helps students grow in a balanced way, making them better prepared for their future lives.

Our school is going to hold the Traditional Art Week. I’d like to introduce a great craftsman I admire deeply.
His name is Mr. Li. He is over sixty years old. His traditional skill is making paper-cutting, one of the most famous Chinese traditional arts. He works silently and carefully every day. He first chooses a piece of red paper and draws beautiful patterns on it with a pencil, then holds a pair of sharp scissors to cut along the lines slowly and neatly, paying much attention to every small detail. After cutting, he puts the paper flat and adjusts the edges gently to finish his work. He uses only paper and scissors. He does it because he loves traditional art from the bottom of his heart and hopes to pass it down to the young.
I am truly proud of his work. His strong spirit and deep love for art teach us to love and protect our traditional culture. I hope more students can learn from him.
