With just a pair of scissors and paper， the 70-year-old native craftswoman creates different kinds of paper-cuts. 　　Wang is an inheritor （继承者） of Xinjiang’s valuable cultural heritage of paper-cutting. Growing up in the region and influenced by diverse ethnic cultures， she devoted herself to telling Xinjiang stories through her paper-cutting while protecting and promoting the traditional folk art. 　　She has cultivated her craft since childhood and grew up in a family fond of the skill. At the age of 4， she began to copy her grandmother and mother， using scissors to cut out patterns of flowers， birds， fish and insects. 　　“Paper-cutting is a combination of folk art and daily life，” said Wang， who graduated from Xinjiang Normal University. During her decades of paper-cutting， she has been inspired by real-life experiences. She often travels to Kashgar， Hotan and Aksu prefectures in southern Xinjiang to explore how local ethnic people live. 　　“The bazaar is a window on Xinjiang，” she said. “I hope that I can spread Chinese cultural heritage to people of different ages and from different countries.” Wang also gave online lectures on paper-cutting， attracting 100，000 viewers and teaching them how to cut the images of medical workers， scientists and other heroes from paper to show respect. 语篇解读：本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了艺术家王歌致力于通过剪纸，保护和推广这一民间艺术。 1.What does the underlined word “cultivated” in paragraph 3 mean？（　　） A.Protected.

It also produces the two primary elements of the universe， namely， yin and yang， and the cultural understanding of the unity of heaven and humanity. 　　The roots of Taijiquan are also closely connected with traditional Chinese medicine. For instance， traditional Chinese medicine holds that qi， or life energy， must be able to move freely throughout the body in order to keep good health and the balance of mind and spirit. And practice of Taijiquan is believed to be one of the best means to unblock the flow of qi. This element has proved that it can benefit people of all ages， particularly the elderly. 　　Studies around the world suggest that Taijiquan has a number of specific health benefits， such as reducing stress and anxiety， improving mood， increasing energy， and bettering one’s balance and quickness. Other evidence shows that the exercise may help improve the quality of sleep， lower blood pressure， improve overall wellbeing， and reduce the risk of falls among the elderly. 　　As a daily practice， it requires no special equipment. In aerobic exercise we’re taught to tense the muscles and push hard. Tai Chi is the opposite； it’s about the flow of the whole body in the movement. In order to unite human beings with the natural world， Taijiquan imitates （模仿） motions found in nature， such as movements of animals. Those movements all have very poetic names like “waving hands like clouds”. 语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了太极拳，以及它对身心健康的益处。 5.What’s the purpose of practicing Tai Chi according to the text？（　　） A.To promote a typical type of martial arts.

D.To improve physical health and mental well-being. 解析：D　细节理解题。根据第二段内容可知，练习太极拳的目的是增进身心健康。 6.What does paragraph 3 mainly discuss？（　　） A.Natural phenomenon. B.Taiji’s philosophical meaning. C.The construction of the universe. D.The harmony between man and nature. 解析：B　段落大意题。根据第三段内容可知，本段主要论述了太极的哲学意义。 7.How does Tai Chi benefit the elderly particularly？（　　） A.It removes stress and anxiety. B.It prevents blood pressure. C.It leads to a free flow of qi. D.It builds muscle strength. 解析：C　细节理解题。根据第四段最后两句可知，太极拳导致气的自由流动，对老年人特别有好处。 8.What’s the best title for the text？（　　） A.Tai Chi： A Fitness Art B.Tai Chi： A Chinese Philosophy C.Tai Chi： A Medicine of Mind D.Tai Chi： An Ancient Practice 解析：A　标题归纳题。通读文章内容，尤其是第二段可知，文章主要介绍了一种中国武术。因此，A项适合作为文章最佳标题。 Ⅱ.完形填空 　　（2025·武汉外国语学校检测）“There are two kinds of people in the world — people who love Peking Opera and people who don’t know they love Peking Opera yet，” said Wang Peiyu in the opening section of her latest 12-episode （集） online 　9　. “My job is to let the 　10　 know about Peking Opera and then fall in love with it.” 　　The weekly talk show sees Wang， who is one of the 　11　 Peking Opera artists in China， 　12　 the traditional art form and display its attraction. 　　With a（n） 　13　 of various art forms， including singing， dancing， and martial arts （武术）， Peking Opera has a long history 　14　 back to the 19th century.
