However, you may be asking, “ 1 is the art created from only rice plants?” The secret 2 lies in choosing different kinds of rice seeds. 3 the plants grow, each type shows a different colour, from green to purple, to bring an artwork to life. Creating rice paddy art is far from simple. It 4 careful planning and teamwork. First, farmers draw a picture 5 a computer program. Then, they mark the design on a map of the 6 . This helps show which kind of seeds should be planted in each section. After that, they are ready to sow (播种) the seeds, with the help of either drones (无人机) or volunteers. Rice paddy art in China started around 2010 in Shenyang. Since then, the idea has quickly 7 to other cities such as Harbin and Hangzhou.

Screens were made of paper, and some had the scenery painted on. Puppets might have been originally 4 paper too, but no doubt leather quickly became more popular because of its durability (耐用性). Therefore, in modern Chinese the 5 form is called piyingxi, and pi means leather. Puppets stood for people and different things. They were carved (雕刻) and painted. The colors were very 6 in order to show through the screen. A typical performing troupe was made up of around five people. One 7 the puppets, three played the instruments and one sang all the parts. The 8 performances made shadow play an ideal entertainment art form for the working class. Skills were passed down through families, in troupes, and from masters to pupils. The art form enabled important transmission (传播) of cultural history, social beliefs 9 local customs. The Chinese government is 10 this ancient and important art form, but perhaps the best promoters are the performers themselves, who are finding new ways to bring the art form to young people. 1．A．music B．food C．love D．interest 2．A．enjoyed B．recorded C．watched D．played 3．A．difficult B．popular C．expensive D．simple 4．A．stopped from B．depended on C．made of D．taken up 5．A．sports B．learning C．art D．medical 6．A．bright B．blue C．weak D．not 7．A．caught B．controlled C．shook D．threw 8．A．morning B．noon C．afternoon D．evening 9．A．for B．and C．but D．or 10．A．inventing B．producing C．educating D．promoting 【答案】 1．A 2．B 3．D 4．C 5．C 6．A 7．B 8．D 9．B 10．D 【导语】本文主要介绍了中国传统的皮影戏艺术，包括其历史、表演工具、表演形式及文化意义。 1．句意：伴随着音乐、歌曲和对话，他们讲述了一个故事。 music音乐；food食物；love爱；interest兴趣。根据“Accompanied (伴随) by…songs and dialogue, they tell a story.”结合常识可知，皮影戏是伴随着音乐、歌曲和对话来讲故事。故选A。 2．句意：但直到北宋时期，皮影戏才被记录在册。 enjoyed享受；recorded记录；watched观看；played演奏。根据“in books”可知，此处指被记录在册。故选B。 3．句意：皮影戏所需的工具很简单：只需要一个白色屏幕、木偶和一盏灯。 difficult困难的；popular受欢迎的；expensive昂贵的；simple简单的。根据“just a white screen, puppets, and a light.”可知，此处指需要的工具很简单。故选D。 4．句意：木偶最初可能是用纸做的，但毫无疑问，皮革很快就因为其耐用性而变得更受欢迎。 stopped from停止；depended on取决于；made of由……制成；taken up占据。根据“Screens were made of paper”及“Puppets might have been originally…paper too”可知，此处指木偶最初也是用纸做的。故选C。 5．句意：因此，在现代汉语中，这种艺术形式被称为皮影戏，其中“皮”的意思是皮革。 sports运动；learning学习；art艺术；medical医疗。根据常识可知，皮影戏是一种艺术形式。故选C。 6．句意：为了在屏幕上显示出来，颜色非常鲜艳。 bright明亮的；blue蓝色；weak弱的；not不。根据“in order to show through the screen”可知，颜色要很鲜艳才行。故选A。 7．句意：一个人控制木偶，三个人演奏乐器，一个人演唱所有角色。 caught抓住；controlled控制；shook摇晃；threw扔。根据“One…the puppets, three played the instruments and one sang all the parts.”可知，此处指一个人控制木偶。故选B。 8．句意：晚上的表演使皮影戏成为工人阶级理想的娱乐艺术形式。 morning早上；noon中午；afternoon下午；evening晚上。根据“are held up against a screen with a light behind them.”及“for the working class”可知，皮影戏是在晚上表演的。故选D。 9．句意：这种艺术形式促进了文化历史、社会信仰和地方习俗的重要传播。 for为了；and和；but但是；or或者。“social beliefs”与“local customs”之间是并列关系。故选B。 10．句意：中国政府正在推广这种古老而重要的艺术形式，但也许最好的推广者是表演者们自己，他们正在寻找新的方式将这种艺术形式带给年轻人。 inventing发明；producing生产；educating教育；promoting推广。根据“but perhaps the best promoters are the performers themselves”可知，此处指中国政府正在推广这种艺术形式。故选D。 When I was a kid, I liked cartoons very much.
