When he said goodbye to his good friend Zhang Shao after studying together in the capital, Zhang Shao invited him to his home to have chicken and millet on the Double Ninth Festival two years later. Fan Shi was ____1____ to accept the invitation and made a serious promise to come on time. Fan Shi was taught by his teachers to speak politely and show his respect, instead of speaking ____2____ without thinking when talking with the elderly, especially Zhang Shao’s parents. So he clearly knew that it was ____3____ to interrupt the elderly or talk loudly to them. One day, Fan Shi had a small argument with his brother over a family matter. His mother advised him that a man who follows traditional virtues should ____4____ first instead of arguing angrily. He agreed sincerely. Besides, Fan Shi traveled a long way to Zhang Shao’s home on the exact day to ____5____, just as he promised. This story, known as “Chicken and Millet Friendship”, has been passed down for thousands of years as a model of honesty and politeness. 1. A. pleased B. pleasure C. please D. nervous 2. A. quietly B. openly C. gently D. slowly 3. A. honest B. clever C. impolite D. patient 4. A. give up B. calm down C. show off D. take up 5. A. keeps his word B. kept his word C. keep his word D. keeping his word 【答案】1. A 2. B 3. C 4. B 5. C 【解析】 【导语】本文讲述东汉范式与张劭“鸡黍之交”的典故。范式守信赴约，待人礼貌，尊重长辈，其诚信与礼貌美德流传千年，成为后世楷模。 【1题详解】 句意：范式很高兴接受邀请，并郑重承诺按时到来。 was是系动词，后接形容词作表语。pleased“高兴的”，是形容词；pleasure“愉快，快乐”，是名词；please“使高兴，使满意”，是动词；nervous“紧张的”。根据语境，范式很高兴接受邀请，所以用pleased。 【2题详解】 句意：范式被教导谈吐有礼，而不是不经思考就直率地说话。 此处需要一个副词来修饰动词speak。quietly“安静地”；openly“坦率地，无顾忌地”；gently“温柔地”；slowly“缓慢地”。根据“instead of speaking...without thinking when talking with the elderly”可知，是说不要不加思考无顾忌地和老人说话，用openly符合语境。 【3题详解】 句意：所以他清楚地知道打断老人或对他们大声说话是不礼貌的。 根据常识可知，打断老人说话或大声和老人说话是不礼貌的。honest“诚实的”；clever“聪明的”；impolite“不礼貌的”；patient“有耐心的”。所以这里用impolite。 【4题详解】 句意：母亲建议他，遵循传统美德的人应该先冷静下来，而不是愤怒地争吵。 根据后文“instead of arguing angrily”可知，母亲建议他应该先冷静下来。give up“放弃”；show off“炫耀”；take up“开始从事；占据”，均不符合语义，calm down“冷静下来”正确。 【5题详解】 句意：此外，范式在确切的日子长途跋涉到张劭家去遵守他的诺言，就像他承诺的那样。 此处是动词不定式to do结构表目的，所以要用动词原形keep his word（信守诺言），前面有to，所以用动词原形，keeps是第三人称单数形式，kept是过去式，keeping是现在分词形式，均不符合语法要求。 B The story of Huang Xiang Warming the Mat is a famous example of filial piety (孝顺) in Chinese history. Huang Xiang was born in a poor family. When he was only nine years old, his mother passed away. ____6____ he was so young, he took good care of his father all by himself. When his father asked him about his daily life, Huang Xiang would ____7____ to him patiently and carefully. He also knew it was bad to ____8____ in their house or the street, so he always kept his living place clean and tidy—a small way to show his love for his family. Huang Xiang was ____9____ kind and filial that he tried to do everything he could for his father. In hot summer, he cooled the mat with a fan before his father went to bed; in cold winter, he warmed the mat with his own body. While some children of his age wouldn’t accept their parents’ ____10____, Huang Xiang always kept himself modest and followed his father’s words. His story tells us that we should practice filial piety and other traditional virtues in our daily life. 6. A. Even though B. Because C. If D. When 7. A. reply B. answer C. smile D. laugh 8. A. walk B. litter C. eat D. play 9. A. enough B. too C. very D. so 10. A. advise B. suggest C. advice D. promises 【答案】6. A 7. A 8. B 9. D 10. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，主要讲述了古代孝子黄香自幼悉心照料父亲、践行孝道的故事。 【6题详解】 句意：尽管他这么小，他还是独自照顾好他的父亲。 前句“he was so young”与后句“he took good care of his father”存在让步关系，应用Even though“尽管”。Because“因为”，If“如果”，When“当……时候”均不符合逻辑。 【7题详解】 句意：当父亲问起他的日常生活时，黄香会耐心仔细地回复他。 结合“his father asked him about his daily life”以及“to him patiently and carefully”，面对父亲的询问，此处应表示回复，reply to sb为固定搭配，意为“回复某人”，符合语境，应用reply。answer“回答”不符合搭配，smile“微笑”，laugh“大笑”不符合语境。 【8题详解】 句意：他也知道在家里或街上乱扔垃圾是不好的。 结合“it was bad to…in their house or the street”以及“so he always kept his living place clean and tidy”，此处表示乱扔垃圾是不好的，应用litter。walk“走路”，eat“吃”，play“玩”不符合语境。 【9题详解】 句意：黄香是如此善良和孝顺以至于他尽力为父亲做事。 结合“kind and filial that he tried to do everything he could for his father”，此处为so…that…固定句型，表示“如此……以至于”，符合语境，应用so。enough“足够”语法错误；too“太”，very“非常”不符合语境。 【10题详解】 句意：尽管与他同龄的一些孩子不愿接受父母的建议，黄香却始终保持谦虚，听从父亲的话。 “parents’”后需接名词，结合“Huang Xiang always kept himself modest and followed his father’s words”，此处指与黄香同龄的一些孩子不接受父母的建议，应用advice。advise“建议”与suggest“建议”都是动词，不符合语法；promises“承诺”不符合语境。 C In China, the story of “Shan Juan Giving Up the Throne” is very famous.

D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，讲述了“善卷让贤”的故事，展现了善卷淡泊名利、无私助人的品质。 【11题详解】 句意：当舜帝想把王位让给他时，善卷拒绝了他，而不是接受权力。 根据后文善卷归隐山林、不接受王位的情节，refused“拒绝”符合语境；agreed“同意”、thanked“感谢”、addressed“致辞”均与文意不符。 【12题详解】 句意：善卷决定过一种平静的生活：他春种秋收。 设空后为名词life，需用形容词修饰，peaceful“平静的、安宁的”是形容词，符合语法和语境；peace“和平”，名词、peacefully“平静地”，副词、carefully“仔细地”，副词，均不符合语法要求。 【13题详解】 句意：而且他从不期待名誉或权力。 expected在此处意为“期待”，never expected fame or power表示“从不期待名誉或权力”，符合善卷淡泊名利的形象；hoped“希望”，后常接从句或for短语、wished“希望”，常接虚拟语气或for短语、hated“讨厌”均不符合语境。 【14题详解】 句意：为了躲避舜帝的反复劝说，善卷决定渡过河流，隐居深山。 固定搭配decide to do sth.“决定做某事”，设空处需用动词原形，cross“渡过”符合要求；across介词，“穿过”、past介词/副词，“经过”、passed动词过去式，“通过”，均不符合语法。 【15题详解】 句意：数千年来，善卷因其善良和无私一直受到人们的赞扬。 时间状语“for thousands of years”表示从过去持续到现在的状态，需用现在完成时的被动语态has been praised；will be一般将来时、are一般现在时、was一般过去时，均不符合时态要求。 Task II Explore love and help in our life now 二、完形填空（共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分） My dad works for an aid (救助) organization.

From strangers to your family and closest friends, there are many nice things we can say to them to bring a little kindness to the world. However, some people find it difficult to say something nice to others. Recently, the topic “Don’t feel ashamed to give praise” has gone popular on social media. People shared personal experiences when they felt too shy to say something nice about someone. They also expressed their worries: “What if others think my words are just flattery (奉承)?” “What if I praise someone and only get the cold shoulder?” Because of these fears, some choose to stay quiet, leaving kind words unsaid. This small habit seems harmless, but it can hide our true feelings. Little by little, we get used to keeping our praise, care and kindness deep inside. Over time, it can change our relationships and even reduce our own sense of happiness. As a result, we may start to feel distant from others. In fact, saying something nice doesn’t mean we are trying to please others against our will. Instead, it shows we pay attention to the strengths and efforts of those around us, and we value and respect them. A simple and sincere praise can warm someone’s heart, reduce misunderstandings (误会) and bring people together. So next time you see your friend wearing a beautiful coat, why not give him sincere praise? For example, you can focus on details like “This colour looks great on you!” or “You really have good taste in music!” These kind words not only make your friend happy but also create a pleasant feeling between you. Kind words cost nothing, but they can mean everything. 29. Why do some people find it hard to praise others? A. Because they like to keep their praise inside. B. Because they think kind words cost too much. C. Because they may praise others against their wishes. D. Because they worry others will not like their words. 30. What does the phrase “cold shoulder” in Paragraph 2 probably mean? A. A polite and warm welcome. B. A shy and quiet conversation. C. A silent and unfriendly reply. D. A cold and dishonest manner. 31. The writer mentions “This colour looks great on you” as an example to show that ________. A. praise about clothing is always the perfect choice B. a simple and detailed praise can build a good relationship C. a simple praise can sometimes reduce misunderstandings D. friends usually care more about their appearance than other things 32. What would be the best title of the passage? A. The Secret to True Happiness B. Why We Should Not Praise Others C. The Power of a Sincere Praise D. How to Avoid Misunderstandings 33. What is the writer’s main purpose in writing this passage? A. To explain why some people are afraid of giving praise. B. To encourage readers to express sincere praise to others. C. To tell readers how to tell flattery from true praise. D. To show that keeping kind words inside is sometimes better. 【答案】29. D 30. C 31. B 32. C 33. B 【解析】 【导语】本文阐述真诚赞美拥有强大力量，分析人们不愿夸赞他人的种种顾虑与压抑善意评价带来的不良影响，介绍细节化真诚夸奖的积极作用，呼吁人们主动向他人表达赞美。 【29题详解】 原文第二段提到“They also expressed their worries: “What if others think my words are just flattery?” “What if I praise someone and only get the cold shoulder?”，说明人们担心对方不认可、不喜欢自己的赞美，因此难以开口夸奖他人。 【30题详解】 原文第二段提到“What if I praise someone and only get the cold shoulder?”，结合本段人们担心夸赞得不到好回应的语境可判断该短语指冷淡、不友好的回应。 【31题详解】 原文第六段提到“A simple and sincere praise can warm someone’s heart, reduce misunderstandings and bring people together... These kind words not only make your friend happy but also create a pleasant feeling between you.”，说明细致简单的真诚赞美能够拉近人与人之间的距离，建立良好关系。 【32题详解】 全文围绕真诚赞美带来的温暖、融洽关系等正向作用展开，核心主题是真诚赞美的力量。 【33题详解】 原文第一段、第六段、第七段依次点明赞美能让人开心、举例倡导真诚夸赞、总结善意话语意义，全文写作目的是鼓励读者向他人表达真诚的赞美。 C Finding a snail? Catching it? Easy—they hardly move! To tell the truth, I wasn’t raised to be a fan of snails. Having a grandmother as a gardener, my brother and I were taught from a young age that if we see a snail on a plant, we should pick it off. But as I’ve grown older, my view on snails has changed. They bring me a different kind of happiness. The first time I saw snails as more than just pests was in my garden. A small snail, carrying a hard round shell on its back, moved slowly toward a half-open flower bud and explored it. After a while, the bud bloomed. Watching the snail carefully touching the flower with its tentacles (触角) reminded me of the lyrics “Snails see the beauty in every inch.” At that moment, I realized it takes life slowly but seriously. Another time, I noticed a little snail moving by. I quickly picked up the snail and placed it in my hand. Accidentally, a few drops of water dripped onto the snail. It was scared by the sudden wetness and quickly retreated into its shell. I thought it would hide inside for at least a couple of minutes, but shortly after that, the snail poked its head out again. It was not just hiding but adjusting. It’s not just the snail’s movements that make it a symbol of peace, but also its sense of knowing when to re-enter the exciting life. Once, having difficulty with my career, I was walking outside the office on a hot summer day. On my way back, it started to rain. When the raindrops wet the soil, some little friends appeared everywhere. After waiting patiently for the rain, they energetically get going and go. It was also the right moment for me to start over. So, what is the secret to living like snails? It’s not about being sluggish. It’s about being snailish. 34. What did the writer think of snails when she was young? A. They were interesting treasures in the garden. B. They were harmful to plants and should be killed. C. They were symbols of peace and calm. D. They were too slow to be noticed. 35. What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 3 mean? A. Snails move slowly and like beautiful things. B. Snails can see small things clearly. C. Snails take their time to discover beauty around them. D. Snails spend all their time looking for beauty. 36. Which is true about snails? A. Snails prefer hot summer days. B. Snails are afraid of water and will hide for a long time. C. Snails live a slow and boring life every day. D. Snails are able to get used to new situations. 37. How can we live a “snailish” life? A. We must stay away from danger in our life. B. We can do almost everything as slowly as snails do. C. We should stay calm and know when to move forward. D. We had better wait for others' help when in trouble. 【答案】34. B 35. C 36. D 37. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇哲理记叙文，作者通过与蜗牛相处的经历，讲述了自己对蜗牛的看法变化，领悟到“蜗牛式生活”的真谛——保持从容，懂得何时前进。 【34题详解】 根据第2段“Having a grandmother as a gardener, my brother and I were taught from a young age that if we see a snail on a plant, we should pick it away.”可知，作者小时候被教导要摘掉植物上的蜗牛，认为它们对植物有害、应该被清除。 【35题详解】 根据第3段“Watching the snail carefully touching the flower with its tentacles reminded me of the lyric ‘Snails see the beauty in every inch.’ At that moment, I realized it takes life slowly but seriously.”可知，划线句指蜗牛会花时间认真地发现身边的美。 【36题详解】 根据第4段“Shortly after that, the snail poked its head out again. It was not just hiding but adjusting.”和第5段“After waiting patiently for the rain, they energetically get up and go.”可知，蜗牛遇到水会躲起来调整状态，之后又会重新出来活动，能适应新情况。 【37题详解】 根据第5段“It’s not just the snail’s movements that make it a symbol of peace, but also its sense of knowing when to re-enter the exciting life.”和第6段“It’s not about being sluggish. It’s about being snailish.”可知，“蜗牛式生活”的真谛是保持平静，懂得何时前进。 D We often consider the city a stressful place. Crowded streets, expensive housing, all kinds of pollution, and a weak sense of community are just a few reasons people may feel this way about city life. Because of this, many people dream of moving to the countryside for a slower pace of life and a closer connection to nature. But what if we look at cities in a new way—not as the opposite of nature, but as a new kind of nature? At first, this idea may sound strange, but it makes us ask two important questions: What is “nature”? And what is “city”? Many people think nature can be found only in mountains and forests. However, it can also be found in every corner of a city—along a riverbank, in a small park, on a balcony, or in the songs of birds in the trees. In fact, many of our city “neighbors” are animals. In Europe and North America, for example, squirrels are now more common in cities than in forests. As the dividing line between city and nature becomes blurred, some city designers suggest that we need to start seeing cities as ecosystems (生态系统) for all living things, not just humans. An ecosystem includes both living things (like humans, animals, and plants) and non-living things (like air, water, buildings, and roads). In such a system, everything is connected. Humans and other things share the same space, and our actions influence one another. When we design future cities, we should take every part of this ecosystem into consideration. Nature is not only “out there” in faraway places. It is also right here, beside us. If we treat the city as nature, we will stop asking where nature begins and start asking how to live better in it. 38. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? A. Nature only appears in mountains and forests. B. Squirrels are less common in European cities than in forests. C. An ecosystem only includes living things like animals and plants. D. Nature can also be found on a balcony or in a park in a city. 39. What can we learn about the design of future cities from the passage? A. It should only consider human needs. B. It should treat cities as ecosystems for all living and non-living things. C. It should separate cities from nature completely. D. It should build fewer buildings and more forests. 40. What is the main purpose of the passage? A. To list the environment problems of city life. B. To explain why forests have more animals than cities. C. To introduce a new way of seeing cities as a part of nature. D. To tell readers that everyone should move to the countryside. 【答案】38. D 39. B 40. C 【解析】 【导语】本文介绍了将城市视为自然一部分的新观点，强调城市也是生态系统，设计时应考虑所有生物与非生物。 【38题详解】 第二段“However, it can also be found in every corner of a city—along a riverbank, in a small park, on a balcony, or in the songs of birds in the trees.”表明，自然也可以在城市的阳台或公园中找到。 【39题详解】 第三段“some city designers suggest that we need to start seeing cities as ecosystems...When we design future cities, we should take every part of this ecosystem into consideration.”表明，未来城市设计应将城市视为包含所有生物和非生物的生态系统。 【40题详解】 第一段提出“what if we look at cities in a new way—not as the opposite of nature, but as a new kind of nature?”，第二、三段进一步论证，第四段总结“If we treat the city as nature...”，全文核心目的是介绍一种将城市视为自然一部分的新视角。 非选择题（共60分） Task IIII Know helping others is to help ourselves 四、词汇运用（本题共20小题；每小题1分，满分20分） A) 请根据括号中所给的汉语写出单词，使短文意思完整正确 The new term has started at Sunshine Middle School.

Mandarin (普通话) has the largest number of speakers across China. While Mandarin is the standard language, there are many dialects (方言) of Chinese, including Jin dialect, Wu dialect, Min dialect, Hakka dialect, Cantonese dialect, Xiang dialect, Gan dialect and so on. These dialects have their own sounds, vocabulary, and grammar rules, which show local people’s own rich and colourful ways of life across different parts of China.

For example, Cantonese has nine tones, while Mandarin has four, adding to the colourful variety of Chinese sounds. Grammatically, Chinese follows its own set of rules. Word order and function words play very important roles in expressing grammatical relationships. Additionally, Chinese has many different kinds of measure words, such as “个” (a general measure word), “只” (used for animals), and “条” (used for long, narrow objects), which are special parts of Chinese grammar. Beyond its difficult language rules, Chinese characters (汉字) are the writing system of Chinese. Chinese characters are meaning-based words with both meaning and sound functions. Their beautiful shapes and strict forms make them one of the treasures of Chinese culture. Chinese characters have developed over time through many different stages, from ancient oracle bone script to today’s regular script, forming the colorful, rich and different Chinese character systems we see today.

(01403)642135 B Sometimes, making someone happy is easy; just say a few words that really satisfy him. From strangers to your family and closest friends, there are many nice things we can say to them to bring a little kindness to the world. However, some people find it difficult to say something nice to others. Recently, the topic “Don’t feel ashamed to give praise” has gone popular on social media. People shared personal experiences when they felt too shy to say something nice about someone. They also expressed their worries: “What if others think my words are just flattery (奉承)?” “What if I praise someone and only get the cold shoulder?” Because of these fears, some choose to stay quiet, leaving kind words unsaid. This small habit seems harmless, but it can hide our true feelings. Little by little, we get used to keeping our praise, care and kindness deep inside. Over time, it can change our relationships and even reduce our own sense of happiness. As a result, we may start to feel distant from others. In fact, saying something nice doesn’t mean we are trying to please others against our will. Instead, it shows we pay attention to the strengths and efforts of those around us, and we value and respect them. A simple and sincere praise can warm someone’s heart, reduce misunderstandings (误会) and bring people together. So next time you see your friend wearing a beautiful coat, why not give him sincere praise? For example, you can focus on details like “This colour looks great on you!” or “You really have good taste in music!” These kind words not only make your friend happy but also create a pleasant feeling between you. Kind words cost nothing, but they can mean everything. 29. Why do some people find it hard to praise others? A. Because they like to keep their praise inside. B. Because they think kind words cost too much. C. Because they may praise others against their wishes. D. Because they worry others will not like their words. 30. What does the phrase “cold shoulder” in Paragraph 2 probably mean? A. A polite and warm welcome. B. A shy and quiet conversation. C. A silent and unfriendly reply. D. A cold and dishonest manner. 31. The writer mentions “This colour looks great on you” as an example to show that ________. A. praise about clothing is always the perfect choice B. a simple and detailed praise can build a good relationship C. a simple praise can sometimes reduce misunderstandings D. friends usually care more about their appearance than other things 32. What would be the best title of the passage? A. The Secret to True Happiness B. Why We Should Not Praise Others C. The Power of a Sincere Praise D. How to Avoid Misunderstandings 33. What is the writer’s main purpose in writing this passage? A. To explain why some people are afraid of giving praise. B. To encourage readers to express sincere praise to others. C. To tell readers how to tell flattery from true praise. D. To show that keeping kind words inside is sometimes better. C Finding a snail? Catching it? Easy—they hardly move! To tell the truth, I wasn’t raised to be a fan of snails. Having a grandmother as a gardener, my brother and I were taught from a young age that if we see a snail on a plant, we should pick it off. But as I’ve grown older, my view on snails has changed. They bring me a different kind of happiness. The first time I saw snails as more than just pests was in my garden. A small snail, carrying a hard round shell on its back, moved slowly toward a half-open flower bud and explored it. After a while, the bud bloomed. Watching the snail carefully touching the flower with its tentacles (触角) reminded me of the lyrics “Snails see the beauty in every inch.” At that moment, I realized it takes life slowly but seriously. Another time, I noticed a little snail moving by. I quickly picked up the snail and placed it in my hand. Accidentally, a few drops of water dripped onto the snail. It was scared by the sudden wetness and quickly retreated into its shell. I thought it would hide inside for at least a couple of minutes, but shortly after that, the snail poked its head out again. It was not just hiding but adjusting. It’s not just the snail’s movements that make it a symbol of peace, but also its sense of knowing when to re-enter the exciting life. Once, having difficulty with my career, I was walking outside the office on a hot summer day. On my way back, it started to rain. When the raindrops wet the soil, some little friends appeared everywhere. After waiting patiently for the rain, they energetically get going and go. It was also the right moment for me to start over. So, what is the secret to living like snails? It’s not about being sluggish. It’s about being snailish. 34. What did the writer think of snails when she was young? A. They were interesting treasures in the garden. B. They were harmful to plants and should be killed. C. They were symbols of peace and calm. D. They were too slow to be noticed. 35. What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 3 mean? A. Snails move slowly and like beautiful things. B. Snails can see small things clearly. C. Snails take their time to discover beauty around them. D. Snails spend all their time looking for beauty. 36. Which is true about snails? A. Snails prefer hot summer days. B. Snails are afraid of water and will hide for a long time. C. Snails live a slow and boring life every day. D. Snails are able to get used to new situations. 37. How can we live a “snailish” life? A. We must stay away from danger in our life. B. We can do almost everything as slowly as snails do. C. We should stay calm and know when to move forward. D. We had better wait for others' help when in trouble. D We often consider the city a stressful place. Crowded streets, expensive housing, all kinds of pollution, and a weak sense of community are just a few reasons people may feel this way about city life. Because of this, many people dream of moving to the countryside for a slower pace of life and a closer connection to nature. But what if we look at cities in a new way—not as the opposite of nature, but as a new kind of nature? At first, this idea may sound strange, but it makes us ask two important questions: What is “nature”? And what is “city”? Many people think nature can be found only in mountains and forests. However, it can also be found in every corner of a city—along a riverbank, in a small park, on a balcony, or in the songs of birds in the trees. In fact, many of our city “neighbors” are animals. In Europe and North America, for example, squirrels are now more common in cities than in forests. As the dividing line between city and nature becomes blurred, some city designers suggest that we need to start seeing cities as ecosystems (生态系统) for all living things, not just humans. An ecosystem includes both living things (like humans, animals, and plants) and non-living things (like air, water, buildings, and roads). In such a system, everything is connected. Humans and other things share the same space, and our actions influence one another. When we design future cities, we should take every part of this ecosystem into consideration. Nature is not only “out there” in faraway places. It is also right here, beside us. If we treat the city as nature, we will stop asking where nature begins and start asking how to live better in it. 38. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? A. Nature only appears in mountains and forests. B. Squirrels are less common in European cities than in forests. C. An ecosystem only includes living things like animals and plants. D. Nature can also be found on a balcony or in a park in a city. 39. What can we learn about the design of future cities from the passage? A. It should only consider human needs. B. It should treat cities as ecosystems for all living and non-living things. C. It should separate cities from nature completely. D. It should build fewer buildings and more forests. 40. What is the main purpose of the passage? A. To list the environment problems of city life. B. To explain why forests have more animals than cities. C. To introduce a new way of seeing cities as a part of nature. D. To tell readers that everyone should move to the countryside. 非选择题（共60分） Task IIII Know helping others is to help ourselves 四、词汇运用（本题共20小题；每小题1分，满分20分） A) 请根据括号中所给的汉语写出单词，使短文意思完整正确 The new term has started at Sunshine Middle School.

It shows the country’s long history, rich cultural traditions, and social changes. Chinese is grouped into the Sino-Tibetan language family (汉藏语系). Mandarin (普通话) has the largest number of speakers across China. While Mandarin is the standard language, there are many dialects (方言) of Chinese, including Jin dialect, Wu dialect, Min dialect, Hakka dialect, Cantonese dialect, Xiang dialect, Gan dialect and so on. These dialects have their own sounds, vocabulary, and grammar rules, which show local people’s own rich and colourful ways of life across different parts of China. In sound, Chinese uses different tones, which gives the language musical beauty and a rich power to express feelings. The sounds of regional dialects are very different from each other. For example, Cantonese has nine tones, while Mandarin has four, adding to the colourful variety of Chinese sounds. Grammatically, Chinese follows its own set of rules. Word order and function words play very important roles in expressing grammatical relationships. Additionally, Chinese has many different kinds of measure words, such as “个” (a general measure word), “只” (used for animals), and “条” (used for long, narrow objects), which are special parts of Chinese grammar. Beyond its difficult language rules, Chinese characters (汉字) are the writing system of Chinese. Chinese characters are meaning-based words with both meaning and sound functions. Their beautiful shapes and strict forms make them one of the treasures of Chinese culture. Chinese characters have developed over time through many different stages, from ancient oracle bone script to today’s regular script, forming the colorful, rich and different Chinese character systems we see today. Chinese calligraphy (书法) is an art form that pays attention to the beauty and elegance of written Chinese characters. It brings technique (技巧), skill, and creativity together, and is deeply respected in Chinese culture.
