Could you change it?” I wasn’t happy and wanted to call her back. Then I suddenly thought of Grandma and what she did for me. It was a summer when I was eight. One day, Grandma decided to dress up my hair with some flowers. She spent a long time on it, and she enjoyed doing that. When Grandma finished, she was so happy, and I stood on a chair to look at myself in the mirror. My heart went cold. “You can go out and play now.” Grandma said, smiling. I nodded (点头) and slowly walked towards the door. I looked out of the door and saw some kids playing outside. My best friend, Sally, saw me and waved (挥手) at me to go outside, but I couldn’t move. I knew everyone would laugh at my hair, but I couldn’t tell Grandma how I felt. Finally, I went into Grandma’s room and said in a scared voice, “Grandma, I don’t think the flowers in my hair look nice.” Grandma looked sad, but didn’t say a word. She stood me back on the chair in front of the mirror. While Grandma was pulling out the flowers gently (轻柔地), I realized she loved me so deeply that she put my feelings before hers. And that is the kind of love I try to pass on today. I picked up my phone and replied to my friend on WeChat, “I am glad to change it.” 根据语篇内容，判断正误。(正确选A，错误选B) 16.

It’s not a scene from a movie, but a form of intangible cultural heritage (非物质文化遗产) —bamboo drifting (独竹漂). Yang Liu, 24, is an inheritor (传承人) of bamboo drifting. She started to learn it from her grandmother when she was 7. As she was weak in health as a child, her grandmother wanted her to get into better shape through this sport. Yang threw herself into practicing bamboo drifting all year round, even in the winter cold and summer heat. “It was common for me to fall into the water when I started practicing,” recalled Yang, adding that it took her three years to learn the basic skills of bamboo drifting. In order to acquire more bamboo drifting skills, Yang had to practice many difficult movements on a bamboo pole that was 9 m in length and 15 cm in diameter (直径), and stand all the physical pain (身体痛苦) that came with it. Through years of hard training, Yang now thinks of the bamboo pole as her “best friend”. At one point, inspired (被鼓舞) by her grandmother, Yang began to put dance and bamboo drifting together. “My grandmother came up with an idea. I practice bamboo drifting all the time, so why not try to combine (合并) dance with the skill? It might be something different,” the young woman said. Little by little, Yang’s hard work paid off when she was able to perfectly perform dancing with the traditional bamboo drifting skill. “I hope that more people can know about bamboo drifting and enjoy this form of art,” said Yang. 根据语篇内容，从每小题所给的A 、B 、C 三个选项中选择最佳答案。 21. Why did Yang’s grandmother let her learn bamboo drifting? A. Because it could help Yang keep fit. B. Because Yang wanted to know about the intangible cultural heritage. C. Because it was the traditional skill of Yang’s family. 22. What does the underlined word “acquire” mean? A. Sell. B. Refuse. C. Learn. 23. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? A. Yang is a little tired of bamboo drifting now. B. Yang hopes bamboo drifting can be known by more people. C. Yang spent 3 months learning the basic skills of bamboo drifting. 24. Which word can be used to describe Yang’s grandmother? A. Hard-working. B. Creative. C. Kind-hearted. 25. Which part of a newspaper might this passage come from? A. Travel. B. Education. C. Culture.
