One day, the king saw the pictures of his ancestors (祖先) on the walls. Thinking that one day his children would admire his picture as well, he really wanted to have it painted well. However, he wasn’t sure what his painting would be like because of his leg and eye. So, he invited a group of famous painters to the palace (王宫), offering a lot of money to the artist who could create a beautiful picture of him. All the painters began to wonder how to paint the king. They soon decided that it was an impossible thing, being that if the king was not satisfied with their pictures, they would get punished. So, one by one, they started making excuses and refused politely. Then, one painter named Tom said that he wanted to have a try. The king agreed. Tom started drawing and coloring the picture carefully in a quiet room. After some time, he finally finished it! All the other painters in the palace couldn’t wait to see what it would look like. When Tom showed the picture, everyone, including the king, was amazed. Tom made a picture in which the king was sitting on a horse, showing the one-leg side, holding his bow (弓) and aiming the arrow (箭) with his one eye closed. The king was very happy to see this beautiful picture and gave Tom a lot of money as he promised. 28. What did the king invite these famous painters to do? A. To paint the palace walls. B. To teach him painting skills. C. To create a beautiful picture of him. D. To paint pictures of his ancestors. 29. Why did other painters refuse to paint for the king? A. Because they don’t like the King. B. Because they thought it would take a long time. C. Because they feared to be punished. D. Because they thought the money was not enough. 30. Which of the paintings could be the picture of the king? A. B. C. D. 31. What is the best title of this passage? A. A Clever King B. The King’s painting C. A Dangerous Job D. A King and His Horse D One Christmas Eve, old Scrooge and Bob were working busily in his office. The houses were covered with snow. The weather was cold. It was only three o’clock in the afternoon, but it was already quite dark. “Merry Christmas, Uncle!” said a happy voice. It was Scrooge’s nephew. “Stupid!” said Scrooge. “Christmas is stupid? Surely you don’t mean that, Uncle,” said his nephew. “I do,” said Scrooge. “Merry Christmas. But why do you feel happy? You’re poor.” “OK. Then,” replied the nephew. “Why are you unhappy? You are so rich,” said his nephew. “I live in a world of fools! Merry Christmas! What does Christmas mean to you? It’s a time for expenditure. Shopping, shopping, shopping, people spend a lot of money buying so many unnecessary things! It’s also a time to find yourself a year older, but not richer. Everyone saying ‘Merry Christmas’ should get his tongue (舌头) cut out!” “Uncle! Please don’t say that,” said the nephew, “I’ve always thought of Christmas time as a good time, a kind, and a happy time. And so, Uncle, Christmas has never brought me any gold, but I think it has done me good. And it will do me good. And I say, God bless it!” Bob, standing in the corner of the room, applauded (鼓掌). He realized his mistake very soon, and went quickly back to his work, but Scrooge had heard him. “One more sound from you, Bob,” said Scrooge. “And you’ll celebrate Christmas by losing your job!” “Don’t be angry with him, Uncle. Come and have dinner with us tomorrow.” “No,” said Scrooge. “I’m sorry you don’t want to celebrate Christmas. But I do. So a Merry Christmas, Uncle!” “Good afternoon!” said Scrooge. “And a Happy New Year!” said his nephew. “Good afternoon!” said Scrooge again. His nephew left the room. He stopped to wish Bob a Merry Christmas. And Bob replied, “A Merry Christmas to you, too.” 32. When did the story happen? A. In spring. B. In summer. C. In autumn. D. In winter. 33. What did Scrooge think of Christmas? A. It was simple. B. It was good. C. It was stupid. D. It was necessary. 34. What does the underlined word “expenditure” in paragraph 7 mean? A. 消费 B. 收入 C. 聚餐 D. 加班 35. What can we infer from the story? A. Scrooge was working busily in his office on Christmas Eve. B. No rich people wanted to waste their time celebrating Christmas. C. Bob believed in Christmas the same as Scrooge’s nephew did. D. Scrooge accepted his nephew’s invitation to dinner on Christmas Day. E ①Many stick puppets (木偶), dressed in traditional costumes, have fun on stage. They are able to change their facial expressions and perform difficult movements along with the music. The people who control the puppets are below them and use three rods (杆子) to move the head and hands of the puppets. ②This is the art form of stick puppet plays popular in Xiaoyi, Shanxi Province. They were introduced to Xiaoyi during the Song Dynasty, and became the most popular during the Ming and Qing dynasties. Traditionally, stick puppets were made out of wood. They took a long time to make and were heavy to hold. ③Wang Maowei, 41, is a master of performing the beautiful art form on stage. ④Since his parents used to work with the Xiaoyi Shadow Puppetry and Puppet Troupe (戏班), he fell in love with the art form as a teenager. He decided to be a puppet performer and “make it a lifelong career (事业)”. ⑤When he was 17, he went to Xi’an to learn puppet-making from a master. After spending seven years there, he returned to his hometown and joined the same troupe that his parents worked with. ⑥ “Traditional art in modern times is a challenge for performers,” says Wang. “Don’t stay in the same old way. It’s important to keep up with the times.” So ________. Unlike the traditional puppets, Wang uses one rod instead of three to make the puppets work. A special tool is put inside the puppet, combining (结合) traditional skills with modern technology. His puppets can perform bianlian, also known as face-changing, to attract more young people, and his troupe now uses background music instead of local operas when performing the plays. This makes it easier for the audience to understand. 36. What does “it” in Paragraph 4 refer to (指代)? A. Joining the local troupe. B. Performing the stick puppet play. C. Learning from a puppet-making master. D. Letting more people know about the art. 37. Which sentence can be put in the ________. A. many people think he is truly a puppet-making master B. he has changed the traditional art form completely C. the plays are great for spreading Chinese culture D. he has made the puppets different from the old times 38. Which was the correct time order of the following events about Maowei? ①He decided to be a puppet performer and make it a lifelong career. ②He fell in love with puppets as a teenager. ③He combined traditional skills with modern technology. ④He went to Xi’an to learn puppet-making from a master. A. ①③②④ B. ②①④③ C. ②①③④ D. ②④①③ 39. Which group of words is the most suitable for the mind-map? A. Birthplace; story; Examples B. History; love; Changes C. History; achievement; Changes D.
