In 1963, Fan, then a 25-year-old Peking University graduate, had the chance to work at the Mogao Caves, a place which she had wanted to explore for a long time.     “Seeing Dunhuang for the first time was breathtaking. But only when truly staying here did I realize that inside the caves is a world of divine (神圣) beauty while outside is a land of blowing sand and yellow earth.” Fan told Gansu Daily.     Back in those days, the Mogao Caves were almost completely cut off from the world. Fan and her co-workers had to live in mud houses and drink salty water. They stayed inside the caves to do research, copy murals, and do whatever they could to protect and restore them.     In 2011, after 40 years of hard work, a report on 10 Mogao Caves compiled (编写) by Fan’s team was finally published. It was known as China’s first professional report on cave archaeology, reported Gansu Daily.     As time passed, Fan found a serious problem. The increasing number of tourists visiting Dunhuang might harm the caves, causing the murals inside to fade. A solution needed to be found to preserve Dunhuang’s heritage .     In the late 1980s, Fan came across computer technology by chance. She realized that this might preserve the Mogao Caves forever. After over 30 years of exploration, the Dunhuang Academy built a digital database to protect cultural relics (文物) there, allowing Dunhuang’s art to live forever and to step out of the caves to meet the world.     “In my whole life, I’ve only done one thing: protect and promote the world cultural heritage of the Mogao Caves,” she told People’s Daily. “My heart belongs to Dunhuang.” 11. What can we learn about Fan from the article? A. She began her work at the Mogao Caves at the age of 23. B. She studied archaeology at Nanjing University. C. Her health was affected by her hard work. D. She is a woman of great determination. 12. The underlined word “preserve” in paragraph 7 means ________. A. increase B. protect C. improve D. change 13. What pushed Fan to establish a digital database for the Mogao Caves? A. Her desire to promote Chinese culture. B. Her interest in computer technology. C. The need to document the restoration work. D. The increasing threat to the physical caves. 14. What’s the genre (体裁) of this passage? A. A story which is made up by imagination. B. A mystery which waits to be uncovered. C. A profile which gives facts about a person. D. A science report which focuses on the discovery of Mogao Caves. 15. What would be the best title for the passage? A. The Struggle of A Guard of Dunhuang B. Returning to Mogao Caves C. The Success of An Archaeologist D. Deep Connection to Caves 【答案】11. D 12. B 13. D 14. C 15. A 【解析】本文主要介绍了考古学家樊锦诗为保护敦煌莫高窟所做的贡献。 11. 推理判断题。根据第四段中“Back in those days, the Mogao Caves were almost completely cut off from the world. Fan and her coworkers had to live in mud houses and drink salty water.”可知，那时候，莫高窟几乎与外界完全隔绝。樊和她的同事不得不住在泥房子里，喝咸水。可推知，在如此艰难的环境工作，樊锦诗是一个意志坚定的女人。故选D。 12. 词句猜测题。根据“She realized that this might preserve the Mogao Caves forever.”可知，电脑科技可以永久保护莫高窟，因此我们可以推断出“preserve”的意思是“保护”，故选B。 13. 推理判断题。由文章第六段中“The increasing number of tourists visiting Dunhuang might harm the caves, causing the murals inside to fade.”以及第七段中“In the late 1980s, Fan stumbled upon computer technology by chance…allowing Dunhuang’s art to live forever and to step out of the caves to meet the world.”可知，越来越多的游客来敦煌旅游，对实体洞穴的威胁越来越大，促使樊为莫高窟建立数字数据库。故选D。 14. 推理判断题。根据全文内容可知，本文是一篇人物介绍，故选C。 15. 最佳标题题。根据文章的整体内容，我们可以看出这篇文章主要是介绍樊锦诗如何保护敦煌莫高窟的，所以选项A“The Struggle of A Guard of Dunhuang”最能反映文章的主题。故选A。 B Can you imagine a butterfly with a human face? Or a Chinese dragon with a fish tail? Such creative and interesting ideas appear in Miao embroidery (刺绣) from Guizhou. Miao embroidery is an important part of Miao culture and a treasure of traditional Chinese clothing culture. It was included in the national intangible cultural heritage list (非物质文化遗产名录) on May 20, 2006. It is considered one of the finest examples of embroidery art. Miao embroidery has a long history of more than 2,000 years. Miao people embroider different patterns on clothes, such as dragons, fish, flowers and birds. These designs aren’t just for beauty. What’s more, many of them play a role in recording their history and culture. This is because Miao people do not have their own written language. Therefore, Miao embroidery is often known as “the Miao history worn on the body”. It is said that a Miao leader named Lanjuan came up with this idea. The main materials of Miao embroidery are silk, cotton and horsehair. ▲ These natural materials make clothes more comfortable to wear. However, these materials are difficult to keep. Therefore, it is hard for people to see Miao embroidery products with a history of more than 200 years today. Now we can find elements (元素) of Miao embroidery in modern clothes, shoes, bags, hats and so on. Besides, there are many cultural and original products about Miao embroidery. Miao embroidery is becoming more and more popular at home and abroad. 16. Why does the writer ask two questions at the beginning of the text? A. To attract readers’ attention. B. To compare embroidery types. C. To describe traditional skills. D. To explain some facts about embroidery. 17. What are the different patterns embroidered on clothes used for? A. Bringing in foreign tourists. B. Recording history and culture. C. Teaching people how to make clothes. D. Introducing traditional folk stories. 18. Which of the following can be put in ▲? A. Among them, silk is the most common. B. They tell Miao stories to more people. C. Some Miao people don’t like these materials. D. Besides, other materials are used to make the embroidery. 19. What does the underlined word “original” mean? A. Creative. B. Expensive. C. Ancient. D. Popular. 20. What is the best title for the passage? A. Enjoy Miao Food B. Explore Miao Buildings C. Explore Miao Embroidery D. Record Miao Culture 【答案】16. A 17. B 18. A 19. A 20. C 【解析】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了苗族刺绣这一独特的文化遗产，包括其历史、图案意义、材料以及在现代的应用等方面，展现了苗族刺绣的魅力和价值。 16. 推理判断题。文章开头通过提出“你能想象一只带有人脸的蝴蝶吗？或者一条有着鱼尾的中国龙？”这样富有想象力和趣味性的问题，目的是吸引读者的注意力，激发读者对苗族刺绣的兴趣，进而引入对苗族刺绣的介绍。故选A。 17. 细节理解题。根据文章第二段“Miao people embroider different patterns on clothes, such as dragons, fish, flowers and birds. These designs aren’t just for beauty. What’s more, many of them play a role in recording their history and culture.”可知，苗族人在衣服上绣不同的图案，这些图案不仅是为了美观，更重要的是它们在记录苗族的历史和文化方面发挥着作用。故选B。 18. 推理判断题。根据前文“The main materials of Miao embroidery are silk, cotton and horsehair.”以及后文“These natural materials make clothes more comfortable to wear.”可知，此处是在介绍苗族刺绣的主要材料，且这些材料都是天然的，穿着舒适。选项A“其中，丝绸是最常见的。”符合语境，进一步说明了这些材料中丝绸的常见性。故选A。 19. 词句猜测题。根据文章最后一段“Now we can find elements (元素) of Miao embroidery in modern clothes, shoes, bags, hats and so on. Besides, there are many cultural and original products about Miao embroidery.”可知，现在我们可以在现代的衣服、鞋子、包、帽子等上面找到苗族刺绣的元素，此外，还有许多关于苗族刺绣的文化和原创产品，因此“original”在此处的意思是“有创意的，原创的”，与“Creative”意思相近。故选A。 20. 最佳标题题。文章主要介绍了苗族刺绣这一独特的文化遗产，包括其历史、图案意义、材料以及在现代的应用等方面，因此最适合的标题是“探索苗族刺绣”，这个标题能够概括文章的主要内容，吸引读者对苗族刺绣的兴趣。故选C。 D When visitors in the Palace Museum need to sit down for a cup of tea or find a bathroom without a long line, they will be able to turn to their smartphones for the information they need. Thanks to an agreement signed by the museum and Huawei, a “smart network” will be built by using 5G technology. Under the agreement, 5G Wi-Fi signals will cover the Palace Museum. “It’s important to use the latest technology to better serve the public,” said Shan Jixiang, former director of the Palace Museum. “There is still much room for improvement in dealing with cultural relics (文物). I remember that when Along the River During the Qingming Festival was exhibited (展览) in 2015, some visitors waited in the lines for nearly a whole day to have a look. I don’t want that scenario to happen again,” Shan said, “Our work can be done in a more scientific way.” In the new system, more than 1.86 million of cameras are set up all over the Palace Museum to safeguard the museum’s precious relics. “How can we make sure no single visitor who might have bad ideas threatens these treasures?” Shan said, “After using 5G technology, we can immediately notice movement about the relics to prevent such threats.” The 5G network will also be used to improve remote (远程的) meetings through webcams, in which scholars will discuss together to find the best answers for repair and store issues. 21. What does the underlined word “scenario” in Paragraph 3 mean? A. Invitation. B. Situation. C. Education. D. Celebration. 22. What is the purpose of the writer listing the number of cameras in Paragraph 4? A. To show the Palace Museum enjoys great popularity all over the world. B. To show the Palace Museum is better than any other museums. C. To show the Palace Museum faces a big challenge of protecting relics. D. To show how many collections of cultural relics in the Palace Museum. 23. What can we learn from the passage? A. No one has the ideas of making the cultural relics broken. B. Scholars must attend face-to-face meetings to discuss repair and store issues. C. The waiting line will be much longer because of the smart network. D. 5G technology helps keep an eye on cultural relics at anytime to prevent danger. 24. What is the main purpose of using 5G technology in the Palace Museum according to the article? A. To attract more tourists. B. To improve visitor services and protect cultural relics. C. To replace all traditional security methods. D. To reduce the number of cameras in the museum. 25. The best title for the passage can be “________”. A. A Connection Between Old and New B. A New Kind of Camera C. The Introduction of 5G Technology D. The Beauty of Chinese Cultural Relics 【答案】21. B 22. C 23. D 24. B 25. A 【解析】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了故宫博物院与华为签署协议，利用5G技术打造“智能网络”，以改善游客服务并加强对文物的保护。 21. 词义猜测题。根据第三段中“I remember that when Along the River During the Qingming Festival was exhibited in 2015, some visitors waited in the lines for nearly a whole day to have a look. I don’t want that scenario to happen again”可知，单霁翔记得2015年《清明上河图》展出时，一些游客排了近一天的队只为看一眼，结合“I don’t want that...to happen again”可知，他不想让这种情况再次发生，由此可推断出scenario意为“情况”。故选B。 22. 推理判断题。根据第四段中“How can we make sure no single visitor who might have bad ideas threatens these treasures?”以及“After using 5G technology, we can immediately notice movement about the relics to prevent such threats”可知，故宫博物院面临着保护文物的巨大挑战，安装摄像头是为了确保没有心怀不轨的游客威胁这些宝藏，使用5G技术后，可以立即注意到文物的移动，以防止此类威胁。由此可推断出作者列举摄像头的数量是为了展示故宫博物院在保护文物方面面临着巨大的挑战。故选C。 23. 细节理解题。根据第四段中“After using 5G technology, we can immediately notice movement about the relics to prevent such threats”可知，使用5G技术后，可以立即注意到文物的移动，以防止此类威胁，即5G技术有助于随时监控文物以防止危险。故选D。 24. 推理判断题。根据第三段中“It’s important to use the latest technology to better serve the public”以及第四段中“How can we make sure no single visitor who might have bad ideas threatens these treasures?”可知，使用5G技术是为了更好地服务公众，并确保没有心怀不轨的游客威胁这些宝藏，由此可推断出在故宫博物院使用5G技术的主要目的是改善游客服务和保护文物。故选B。 25. 最佳标题题。根据全文内容可知，文章主要介绍了故宫博物院与华为签署协议，利用5G技术打造“智能网络”，将古老的故宫博物院与现代科技相结合，既改善了游客服务，又加强了对文物的保护。选项A“新旧之间的联系”符合文章主旨，适合作为标题。故选A。 第二节 短文填空 以下是一则短文, 请阅读短文, 并从下列六个句子中选择五个还原到原文中, 使原文的意思完整、连贯。并在答题卡上将相应的字母编号涂黑。（共5 小题, 每小题1分） Kites were once called zhiyuan in North China and yaozi in South China.The name fengzheng came into use during the Five Dynasties. 26 He once tied a whistle (哨子) made of bamboo to the upper part of his kite so that a zheng sound was made when he was flying the kite. The word for wind is feng, so fengzheng came into use. How was the kite invented (发明)? 27 But it is widely believed that the earliest kite in the world was made by Mo Di, a famous Chinese philosopher (哲学家) who lived about 2,400 years ago. He spent three years making a bird with wood and successfully flew it. The bird was later regarded (被视为) as the first kite in the world. 28 Lu Ban improved (改进) on kite-making. He made a kite out of bamboo and it flew into the air for as long as three days. Kite-flying became a kind of recreation (娱乐活动) in the Tang Dynasty. 29 Later, the paper-made kite was invented. Paper-made kites were cheaper to make and then spread quickly among the common (普通) people. 30 The well-known British scientist, Dr Needham, once described kites as an important invention that spread to Europe from China in his book. A. As time went on, kites flew to different countries in the world. B. Later, he passed on his kite-making skills to Lu Ban. C. The kite was also made of paper after the paper was invented by Cai Lun. D. There are so many different views that it is difficult to know which one is right. E. At that time, only the royal family (王室) and people of the highest class flew kites. F. According to a history book, Li Ye, who lived in the Five Dynasties, used to make and fly kites. 【答案】26. F 27. D 28. B 29. E 30. A 【解析】本文介绍了风筝的历史。 26. 根据“The name fengzheng came into use during the Five Dynasties.”和“He once tied a whistle (哨子) made of bamboo to the upper part of his kite so that a zheng sound was made when he was flying the kite.”可知，此处介绍五代时期的一个人制作了风筝。F项“据一本史书记载，五代时期的李业曾经制作和放风筝。”符合语境，故选F。 27. 根据“How was the kite invented (发明)?”可知，此处关于风筝是如何发明的有不同的观点。D项“有这么多不同的观点，很难知道哪一个是正确的。”符合语境，故选D。 28. 根据“Lu Ban improved (改进) on kite-making.”可知，鲁班改进了风筝制作工艺，因此表示墨翟把制作风筝的技巧教给了鲁班。B项“后来，他把制作风筝的技巧传给了鲁班。”符合语境，故选B。 29. 根据“Paper-made kites were cheaper to make and then spread quickly among the common (普通) people.”可知，纸制风筝制作成本较低，因此在普通人中迅速传播开来，因此介绍纸质风筝之前，普通人无法使用，因此是高阶层的人才能使用。E项“在那个时候，只有皇室和最高阶层的人才放风筝。”符合语境，故选E。 30. 根据“The well-known British scientist, Dr Needham, once described kites as an important invention that spread to Europe from China in his book.”可知，著名的英国科学家李约瑟博士曾在他的书中把风筝描述为一项从中国传到欧洲的重要发明，此处介绍风筝传到了其他国家。A项“随着时间的推移，风筝飞到了世界上不同的国家。”符合语境，故选A。 第三节 信息匹配（共 5小题, 每小题1分） 配对阅读。左栏是对中国传统文化感兴趣的五位外国学生的描述，右栏是七个中国传统文化活动的简介，请为左栏的每位学生选择一个合适的活动。请将两者进行匹配。并将答题卡上对应题目所选的选项涂黑。 31 Lisa becomes interested in traditional Chinese painting and she wants to learn how to paint bamboo in ink. 32 Alan is from India.

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. 2 / 2 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ Unit 4 Arts and heritage 单元检测（深圳专用） 温馨提示： 本试卷共分第Ⅰ卷和第Ⅱ卷两部分，第Ⅰ卷为选择题；第Ⅱ卷为非选择题；满分为75分，考试时间为70分钟。 第一部分选择题（50分） I. 完形填空 （10分）(文章嵌入本单元所学的单词和短语，极好吻合课文所学知识) 阅读下面短文, 从短文后所给的 A、B、C、D 四个选项中选出能填入相应空白处的最佳选项, 并在答题卡上将相应字母编号涂黑。（共 10 小题, 每小题1分） Traditional arts are an important part of our cultural heritage.

In 1963, Fan, then a 25-year-old Peking University graduate, had the chance to work at the Mogao Caves, a place which she had wanted to explore for a long time.     “Seeing Dunhuang for the first time was breathtaking. But only when truly staying here did I realize that inside the caves is a world of divine (神圣) beauty while outside is a land of blowing sand and yellow earth.” Fan told Gansu Daily.     Back in those days, the Mogao Caves were almost completely cut off from the world. Fan and her co-workers had to live in mud houses and drink salty water. They stayed inside the caves to do research, copy murals, and do whatever they could to protect and restore them.     In 2011, after 40 years of hard work, a report on 10 Mogao Caves compiled (编写) by Fan’s team was finally published. It was known as China’s first professional report on cave archaeology, reported Gansu Daily.     As time passed, Fan found a serious problem. The increasing number of tourists visiting Dunhuang might harm the caves, causing the murals inside to fade. A solution needed to be found to preserve Dunhuang’s heritage .     In the late 1980s, Fan came across computer technology by chance. She realized that this might preserve the Mogao Caves forever. After over 30 years of exploration, the Dunhuang Academy built a digital database to protect cultural relics (文物) there, allowing Dunhuang’s art to live forever and to step out of the caves to meet the world.     “In my whole life, I’ve only done one thing: protect and promote the world cultural heritage of the Mogao Caves,” she told People’s Daily. “My heart belongs to Dunhuang.” 11. What can we learn about Fan from the article? A. She began her work at the Mogao Caves at the age of 23. B. She studied archaeology at Nanjing University. C. Her health was affected by her hard work. D. She is a woman of great determination. 12. The underlined word “preserve” in paragraph 7 means ________. A. increase B. protect C. improve D. change 13. What pushed Fan to establish a digital database for the Mogao Caves? A. Her desire to promote Chinese culture. B. Her interest in computer technology. C. The need to document the restoration work. D. The increasing threat to the physical caves. 14. What’s the genre (体裁) of this passage? A. A story which is made up by imagination. B. A mystery which waits to be uncovered. C. A profile which gives facts about a person. D. A science report which focuses on the discovery of Mogao Caves. 15. What would be the best title for the passage? A. The Struggle of A Guard of Dunhuang B. Returning to Mogao Caves C. The Success of An Archaeologist D. Deep Connection to Caves B Can you imagine a butterfly with a human face? Or a Chinese dragon with a fish tail? Such creative and interesting ideas appear in Miao embroidery (刺绣) from Guizhou. Miao embroidery is an important part of Miao culture and a treasure of traditional Chinese clothing culture. It was included in the national intangible cultural heritage list (非物质文化遗产名录) on May 20, 2006. It is considered one of the finest examples of embroidery art. Miao embroidery has a long history of more than 2,000 years. Miao people embroider different patterns on clothes, such as dragons, fish, flowers and birds. These designs aren’t just for beauty. What’s more, many of them play a role in recording their history and culture. This is because Miao people do not have their own written language. Therefore, Miao embroidery is often known as “the Miao history worn on the body”. It is said that a Miao leader named Lanjuan came up with this idea. The main materials of Miao embroidery are silk, cotton and horsehair. ▲ These natural materials make clothes more comfortable to wear. However, these materials are difficult to keep. Therefore, it is hard for people to see Miao embroidery products with a history of more than 200 years today. Now we can find elements (元素) of Miao embroidery in modern clothes, shoes, bags, hats and so on. Besides, there are many cultural and original products about Miao embroidery. Miao embroidery is becoming more and more popular at home and abroad. 16. Why does the writer ask two questions at the beginning of the text? A. To attract readers’ attention. B. To compare embroidery types. C. To describe traditional skills. D. To explain some facts about embroidery. 17. What are the different patterns embroidered on clothes used for? A. Bringing in foreign tourists. B. Recording history and culture. C. Teaching people how to make clothes. D. Introducing traditional folk stories. 18. Which of the following can be put in ▲? A. Among them, silk is the most common. B. They tell Miao stories to more people. C. Some Miao people don’t like these materials. D. Besides, other materials are used to make the embroidery. 19. What does the underlined word “original” mean? A. Creative. B. Expensive. C. Ancient. D. Popular. 20. What is the best title for the passage? A. Enjoy Miao Food B. Explore Miao Buildings C. Explore Miao Embroidery D. Record Miao Culture D When visitors in the Palace Museum need to sit down for a cup of tea or find a bathroom without a long line, they will be able to turn to their smartphones for the information they need. Thanks to an agreement signed by the museum and Huawei, a “smart network” will be built by using 5G technology. Under the agreement, 5G Wi-Fi signals will cover the Palace Museum. “It’s important to use the latest technology to better serve the public,” said Shan Jixiang, former director of the Palace Museum. “There is still much room for improvement in dealing with cultural relics (文物). I remember that when Along the River During the Qingming Festival was exhibited (展览) in 2015, some visitors waited in the lines for nearly a whole day to have a look. I don’t want that scenario to happen again,” Shan said, “Our work can be done in a more scientific way.” In the new system, more than 1.86 million of cameras are set up all over the Palace Museum to safeguard the museum’s precious relics. “How can we make sure no single visitor who might have bad ideas threatens these treasures?” Shan said, “After using 5G technology, we can immediately notice movement about the relics to prevent such threats.” The 5G network will also be used to improve remote (远程的) meetings through webcams, in which scholars will discuss together to find the best answers for repair and store issues. 21. What does the underlined word “scenario” in Paragraph 3 mean? A. Invitation. B. Situation. C. Education. D. Celebration. 22. What is the purpose of the writer listing the number of cameras in Paragraph 4? A. To show the Palace Museum enjoys great popularity all over the world. B. To show the Palace Museum is better than any other museums. C. To show the Palace Museum faces a big challenge of protecting relics. D. To show how many collections of cultural relics in the Palace Museum. 23. What can we learn from the passage? A. No one has the ideas of making the cultural relics broken. B. Scholars must attend face-to-face meetings to discuss repair and store issues. C. The waiting line will be much longer because of the smart network. D. 5G technology helps keep an eye on cultural relics at anytime to prevent danger. 24. What is the main purpose of using 5G technology in the Palace Museum according to the article? A. To attract more tourists. B. To improve visitor services and protect cultural relics. C. To replace all traditional security methods. D. To reduce the number of cameras in the museum. 25. The best title for the passage can be “________”. A. A Connection Between Old and New B. A New Kind of Camera C. The Introduction of 5G Technology D.
