Section Ⅴ　“Extended reading”的课文习读环节 [课时检测]　　　　　　　　　(标语篇配有教师讲评课件) Ⅰ.阅读理解 A My family and I had set out on a day trip from Shillong to Cherrapunji, a town known for being one of the wettest places on Earth. However, after we had been stuck in traffic for more than four hours, one of my sisters proposed going back to the city as a last attempt to save whatever remained of the day. A quick online search revealed other must－visit spots around Shillong. Most were familiar, but one caught our attention — Nartiang with its mysterious monoliths (独石碑). The photo showed tall stones piled together in a strange formation, appealing to us to explore further despite the lack of details provided. That is how I found myself standing in the shadow of the huge monoliths of Nartiang, which is home to the thickest and largest collection in the region. Curious to uncover their history, I approached Maryo Symblai, a village elder I met later that day, who told me the story of the monoliths that has been orally passed down over generations. She said, “Back in the day, Nartiang didn't have a bazaar (集市) and the nearest one was at Raliang. On one such bazaar, a giant named Mar Phalyngki was caught in heavy rain on his way back. He requested to borrow an umbrella from the Raliang chief's youngest daughter, but she wanted to test his legendary strength instead. ‘Why don't you go lift that huge stone in the bazaar and use it as an umbrella？’ she said dismissively. Emboldened by her challenge, he just did that, but before reaching Nartiang, he placed it in a forest when the rain had stopped.” “There is a certain overlap of ancient story and memory in the case of the Nartiang monoliths. The locals' account of how the place came to be is based on ancient stories or folk customs. But they also remember it because it served their ancestors as a weekly marketplace, a memorial, and a place for political gatherings. That is how oral history works. It mixes fact and fiction into collective memory，” said Dr Reeju Ray, a local writer. Today, even though the traditional customs and more confirmed historical accounts offer some insight into the site, the mystery (奥秘) of the stone giants lasts. 语篇解读：本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者探索Nartiang巨石的故事。 1．Why did the author and his family come to visit the monoliths of Nartiang? A．It was in their original trip plan. B．They had to choose it as an alternative. C．It was the only remaining place to visit. D．An elder villager gave them the suggestion. 解析：选B　细节理解题。根据第一段中的“However, after we had been stuck in traffic ...with its mysterious monoliths.”可知，作者和他的家人因为交通被困，所以改变了原来的旅游路线，不得已才选择参观Nartiang及其神秘的巨石。 2．What does the underlined word “Emboldened” in paragraph 2 mean? A．Threatened.　　　　　 B．Moved. C．Stimulated. D．Frightened. 解析：选C　词义猜测题。根据第二段中的“Why don't you go lift that huge stone in the bazaar and use it as an umbrella？”可推测，这里指在女孩话语的“刺激”下，巨人搬了石头。故画线词意为“被刺激”。 3．Why are Dr Reeju Ray's words mentioned? A．To inform what the monoliths served as. B．To illustrate how the mysterious story came into being. C．To introduce the feature of Nartiang monoliths. D．To deny the overlap of ancient story and memory. 解析：选B　推理判断题。根据第三段中的“There is a certain ... memory”可知，文中提到Dr Reeju Ray的话是为了说明这个神秘的故事是如何产生的。 4．What is the best title for the text? A．A Trip to the Monoliths B．The Mystery of Shillong C．The Formation of the Monoliths D．A Disappointing Travel Experience 解析：选A　标题归纳题。根据第一段中的“A quick online ... details provided.”以及下文可知，文章主要讲述了作者探索Nartiang巨石的故事。故A项“巨石之旅”适合作文章标题。 B() The Forbidden City is well－known for being full of Chinese cultural and historical relics. But Masters in the Forbidden City (《我在故宫修文物》) does not just focus on the stories of the past. Instead, the documentary film focuses on ordinary people — the restorers of relics and antiquities (古董)． The stories are told at a slow and relaxing pace, reflecting the restorers' work. Restoration of cultural relics and antiques can be time－consuming, and sometimes boring. Yet these restorers' patience and peace of mind are especially precious in a society where everything is changing so fast. “If you choose this job, you have to stand hours of work sitting on a chair. You need to be quiet and get used to being quiet，” says Wang Jin, an ancient clock repair expert. A touching part of the documentary is the spirit of craftsmanship (工艺) in the restorers. “Years of humdrum work requires not only skill, but also faith and spirit，” China Daily commented. “Looking for precision and perfection, devoting yourself to work, patience, endurance (忍耐力), loneliness ... All these qualities come from the ‘craftsman spirit’．” But unlike the popular idea of serious experts who sit around being serious, the documentary shows the enthusiasm of the restorers. They play their guitars and make jokes about each other after a long day of restoration work. One scene that has been very popular with Internet users features a young female restorer riding a bicycle through the empty Forbidden City on a Monday. While she is doing this, a narrator says, “The last person to do this was Puyi, the last emperor of the Qing Dynasty.” Masters in the Forbidden City has proved many people's ideas about antique restorers wrong, allowing them to realize that they are not old, dull professors, but people in their 40s, 30s and even 20s who can be quite pleasing to the eye. 语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了纪录片《我在故宫修文物》。 5．According to the text, what's the main purpose of the documentary Masters in the Forbidden City? A．To show people how antiques are restored. B．To display relics seldom seen by ordinary people. C．To draw attention to Chinese antique restorers' lives. D．To praise the craftsmanship of Chinese antique restorers. 解析：选C　细节理解题。根据第一段中的“Instead, the documentary film focuses on ordinary people — the restorers of relics and antiquities.”可知，这部纪录片的主要目的是让人们关注文物修复者的生活。 6．What can we learn according to Wang Jin? A．He often gets tired of his work. B．There is no need to do restoration work fast. C．Antique restorers need to be patient and peaceful. D．It takes years of hard work to adapt to antique restoration. 解析：选C　细节理解题。根据第三段的内容可知，古董修复者需要有耐心并能习惯这种安静的生活。 7．What does the underlined word “humdrum” in paragraph 4 probably mean? A．Boring.　　　　　　　 B．Different. C．Relaxing. D．Unusual. 解析：选A　词义猜测题。根据画线词后的“not only skill, but also faith and spirit”和“Looking for precision and perfection, devoting yourself to work, patience, endurance, loneliness ...”可推知，这种工作很单调、无聊，故画线词意为“无聊的”。 8．Why is the bicycle－riding scene mentioned in the documentary? A．To remind the audience of the last Qing emperor. B．To show the strange hobbies of young antique restorers. C．To encourage the young to consider a career in antique restoration in the future. D．To break the old, dull image of antique restorers. 解析：选D　推理判断题。根据最后两段可知，纪录片中骑自行车这一幕是用来打破古董修复者年老、呆滞的形象的。 C An 85－year－old primary school constructed in 1935 in Shanghai has been lifted off the ground in its entirety and relocated using new technology called the “walking machine”．The project marks the first time this “walking machine” method has been used in Shanghai to relocate a historical building. Urbanization (城市化) has continued to significantly threaten architectural heritage.In the capital Beijing, for instance, more than 1,000 acres of its historic hutongs and traditional courtyard homes were destroyed between 1990 and 2010. In the early 2000s, cities including Nanjing and Beijing — due to the critics' protest about the loss of old neighborhoods — drew up long－term plans to preserve what was left of their historic sites, with protections introduced to safeguard buildings and restrict developers. These conservation efforts have taken different forms.In Beijing, a near－ruined temple was transformed into a restaurant and gallery, while in Nanjing, a cinema from the 1930s was restored to its original form, with some additions providing it for modern use.In 2019, Shanghai welcomed Tank Shanghai, an art center built in renovated (重修的) oil tanks. “Relocation is not the first choice, but better than destroying，” said Lan，the Shanghai primary school's project supervisor. “I'd rather not touch the historical buildings at all.” “Building relocations，” he said, however, “are a workable option.” “The central government is putting more emphasis on the protection of historical buildings.I'm happy to see that progress in recent years.” Shanghai has arguably been China's most progressive city when it comes to heritage preservation.The survival of a number of 1930s buildings and 19th－century “shikumen” (or “stone gate”) house has offered examples of how to give old buildings new life. “We have to preserve the historical buildings no matter what happens，” Lan said. “The relocation has challenges, but in general, it is cheaper than destroying and then rebuilding something in a new location.” 语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了各个城市为保护历史遗迹所做的努力，并详细介绍了上海重新安置历史遗迹的方法。 9．How did cities respond to the loss of historic sites? A．They criticized the developers. B．They rebuilt the historic hutongs. C．They ended the significant threat. D．They proposed the protection project. 解析：选D　细节理解题。根据第三段可知，21世纪初，包括南京和北京在内的城市制定了长期计划来保护遗留下来的历史遗迹，包括保护建筑和限制开发。 10．What does the underlined word “it” in paragraph 4 refer to? A．An original form.　 B．A new addition. C．A cinema. D．A temple. 解析：选C　代词指代题。根据第四段第二句中的“a cinema from the 1930s was restored to its original form”可知，it是指电影院。 11．What does the author intend to do in paragraph 6? A．Provide strong evidence. B．Introduce different opinions. C．Summarize previous paragraphs. D．Add some background information. 解析：选A　推理判断题。根据第六段第二句“The survival of a number of 1930s buildings ...of how to give old buildings new life.”可知，本段中作者提供证据证明在遗产保护方面，上海可以说是中国最先进的城市。 12．What's the best title for the text? A．Walking Machine: a New Technology B．Relocation: a New Option for Relics C．Old Building Torn down for Modern Use D．Historical Site “Walks” to New Life 解析：选B　标题归纳题。根据第一段中的“An 85－year－old primary school ... the ‘walking machine’．”和下文的介绍可知，文章主要是讲现在对待历史遗迹采取了一种重新安置的方法。故B项最适合作文章标题。 Ⅱ.阅读七选五 International tourism is becoming interestingly popular, and large numbers of people from all over the world come to visit famous places such as the Great Wall of China and the Sistine Chapel in the Vatican.__13__ They've thrown rubbish everywhere, brought more traffic and even done serious damage to ancient relics. As for the damage, there are many different causes.For example, the paintings in the Sistine Chapel are being damaged by people breathing onto them when they visit.__14__ That may raise the humidity (湿气) of the air and damage the paintings.Damage in other places such as the Great Wall is because of tourists climbing on delicate (脆弱的) areas.Besides, roads have also been built to help visitors climb the Wall easily.These activities can cause a lot of damage to the area. __15__ Firstly, we have to cut down tourist numbers, because fewer visitors will result in less damage.Secondly, we should make strict rules about which areas people can visit and what they can do when they get there.__16__ People will not be allowed to walk off the paths.Visitors to indoor places can be asked to wear masks to protect the paintings.
