When Chinese people talk about Chinese tea culture today, they won’t miss an important person in Chinese history — Lu Yu, respected as “Sage of Tea (茶圣)” for his achievements in the Chinese tea culture. He is best-known for The Classic of Tea, the first work on growing, making and drinking tea.
Lu was born in Jingling in 733 A.D. As a child, he became a student of Zou Fuzi. Thanks to his teacher, he learnt a lot. He often made tea for his teacher. He also took care of his fellow students’ health using his knowledge on tea and herbs.
Lu Yu often went to the countryside to gather tea leaves and herbs. On one of those trips, Lu Yu found a spring. The water was quite clear and clean. When Lu made tea with this spring water, he found the tea tasted better than usual. From then on, he realized the importance of water quality in making tea.
In 752 A.D. Lu Yu finished his studies and returned to Jingling, where he met Cui Guofu. They both liked tea, literature and poetry. They soon became good friends. Since then, the two spent much time travelling, drinking tea and writing poems together.
This period was important to Lu Yu as a man of literature. Cui, with his rich experience and skills in writing, became a coach of Lu. He provided necessary help for Lu’s writing. It was during this time that Lu finally wrote the amazing work, The Classic of Tea.

【导语】本文主要介绍茶圣陆羽的生平经历。讲述他年少拜师学茶、外出采茶发现水质对泡茶的影响,结识好友崔国辅并在其帮助下完成《茶经》。
【36题详解】
根据第一段第二句“He is best-known for The Classic of Tea, the first work on growing, making and drinking tea.”可知,陆羽最著名的是他在茶文化方面的著作和成就。选项D“茶文化方面的作品”符合文意,选项A“优秀学习技巧”、选项B“丰富人生经历”、选项C“深厚的文化知识”均不是核心缘由。
【37题详解】
根据第三段画线词后的句子“The water was quite clear and clean. When Lu made tea with this spring water...”可知,这里的spring指的是清澈的水源,即“泉水/地下水”,而不是选项A“季节”、选项B“饮料”或选项D“一种茶”。
【38题详解】
根据文章时间线索:②第二段“As a child, he became a student...”;④第三段“On one of those trips... realized the importance of water quality”;③第四段“In 752 A.D.... met Cui Guofu”;①第五段“It was during this time that Lu finally wrote...”。正确顺序为先拜师,再发现水质重要,再结交好友,最后写成《茶经》,对应选项B。
【39题详解】
最后一段主要讲述了崔国辅在写作方面给予陆羽指导和帮助(“became a coach”,“provided necessary help”),从而使陆羽完成了《茶经》。这回答了“是什么促使陆羽完成了他的伟大作品”这一问题。
【40题详解】
通读全文,陆羽被称为“茶圣”,撰写专著,说明他很有智慧(wise);第二段提到他“照顾同学的健康”(took care of his fellow students' health),说明他有责任感(responsible)。选项A“有天赋但体弱”、选项B“勇敢但傻气”含贬义,选项D“精力充沛长相帅气”,文中未提及。

When was the last time you used cash? For many of us, it feels like ages. Have you ever looked carefully at RMB notes (纸币)?
Today, we pay for milk tea or meals with just a phone QR code. Notes seem to have disappeared. But they are a lot more than just money. Instead, they offer important windows into Chinese culture. Take the ¥100 note, for example. Its background looks very similar to a phoenix (凤凰) design on a piece of lacquer ware (漆器)!
In fact, China was one of the first countries in the world to use paper money. During the Song Dynasty, people began to use notes such as jiaozi. They had detailed designs. Besides being beautiful, this made it hard to make fake money (假币). Later, another note — baochao, appeared in the Ming Dynasty.
Today, each RMB note has a flower that plays an important role in Chinese culture. For instance, the ¥50 note bears the chrysanthemum (菊花). This flower is often considered as a symbol of a person who lives alone in nature and far away from others. The most famous one is Tao Yuanming, the poet who wrote the famous line “Picking chrysanthemums by the eastern fence.”
Another great example is the plum blossom (梅花) on the ¥100 note. This flower comes out in the cold of winter, so it often stands for strength, hope, and courage. It’s probably the most popular flower in our culture and has appeared in poems in great numbers.
In a word, RMB banknotes carry much more culture than their face value.
41. How does the writer start the passage?
A. Telling a story. B. Giving examples. C. Raising questions. D. Making comparisons.
42. Which picture shows the money people used in the Song Dynasty?
A. B. C. D.
43. Why does the writer mention Tao Yuanming and his poem in Paragraph 4?
A. To show ¥50’s history B. To talk about ancient poems
C. To introduce a famous poet D. To explain chrysanthemum’s meaning
44. Why do designers put plum blossom on the ¥100 note?
A. It stands for fine spirits. B. It appears in many poems.
C. It is the most popular flower. D. It grows everywhere in winter.
45. What’s the best title of this text?
A. History of paper money B. Culture behind RMB notes
C. Ways of paying in daily life D. Flowers on different banknotes
【答案】41. C 42. A 43. D 44. A 45. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文,主要讲述人民币纸币不只是流通货币,还承载着丰富的中国文化。文章介绍了中国古代纸币发展历程,并分别讲解50元纸币菊花、100元纸币梅花蕴含的文化寓意,点明人民币纸币背后深厚的文化内涵。
【41题详解】
第一段“When was the last time you used cash? For many of us, it feels like ages. Have you ever looked carefully at RMB notes (纸币)?”,作者是通过提出两个问题开篇的。
【42题详解】
第三段“During the Song Dynasty, people began to use notes such as jiaozi.”说明,宋代流通的货币是交子,A选项图片为交子。
【43题详解】
第四段“the ¥50 note bears the chrysanthemum. This flower is often considered as a symbol of a person who lives alone in nature and far away from others...by the eastern fence.’”作者借陶渊明和他的诗句,用来解释菊花代表的文化含义。
【44题详解】
第五段“This flower comes out in the cold of winter, so it often stands for strength, hope, and courage.”,梅花寒冬盛放,象征坚毅、希望、勇气等高尚精神,因此设计师将梅花印在100元纸币上。

—_______________. You can often talk with your friends in English.
【答案】OK/ Sure/ Certainly/Of course/ No problem.

【解析】
【导语】本文对比过去与当下人们交友、沟通的方式,阐述了网络社交带来的便利,同时探讨线上友谊的真实性,最后点明无论科技如何变化,友谊的本质始终不变。
【61题详解】
句意:当人们搬到遥远的小镇时,要花很长时间才能收到朋友们的信件。时间状语从句“When people moved to a faraway town”为一般过去时,主句动作发生在过去,谓语动词要用take的过去式。故填took。
【62题详解】
句意:得益于科技的进步,我们交友以及和他们交流的方式发生了巨大改变。固定搭配“communicate with sb.”意为“和某人交流”。
【63题详解】
句意:如今,社交媒体工具能让我们看到我们的朋友正在做什么,即便相隔遥远也能维系友谊。此处是宾语从句,结合语境用现在进行时be doing结构,空前已有be动词are,需填写do的现在分词形式。故填doing。
【64题详解】
句意:我们所需要的只是一个无线网络连接。不定冠词a后需要接名词,connect的名词形式是connection,意为“连接”。
【65题详解】
句意:数字时代也让我们能找到和我们有共同兴趣的人,比如收集汽车模型或者演奏一种不常见的乐器。our后接名词,interest意为“兴趣”是可数名词,这里泛指多种兴趣,要用复数形式。故填interests。
【66题详解】
句意:数字时代也让我们能找到和我们有共同兴趣的人,比如收集汽车模型或者演奏一种不常见的乐器。此处表示“一件不寻常的乐器”,unusual以元音音素开头,要用不定冠词an。
【67题详解】
句意:这要看情况而定。主语It是第三人称单数,句子为一般现在时,谓语动词depend要使用第三人称单数形式。故填depends。
【68题详解】
句意:如果人们经常在网上交换真实的个人信息,那么这些友谊可以是真实且有意义的。名词information前需要形容词作定语,person的形容词形式是personal“意为”“个人的”。
【69题详解】
句意:但我们需要意识到,我们在社交媒体上看到的往往不是关于一个人的全部真相。形容词whole后接名词,true的名词形式是truth意为“真相”。
【70题详解】
句意:尽管科技改变了我们交友的方式,但友谊真正的意义和我们对朋友的期许始终不变。名词wish前需要形容词性物主代词修饰,we对应的形容词性物主代词是our。

We quickly sent for doctors to make sure they were all right. When they met their families, they cried for joy. That made me very happy. However, not everyone had a happy ending.

When Chinese people talk about Chinese tea culture today, they won’t miss an important person in Chinese history — Lu Yu, respected as “Sage of Tea (茶圣)” for his achievements in the Chinese tea culture. He is best-known for The Classic of Tea, the first work on growing, making and drinking tea.
Lu was born in Jingling in 733 A.D. As a child, he became a student of Zou Fuzi. Thanks to his teacher, he learnt a lot. He often made tea for his teacher. He also took care of his fellow students’ health using his knowledge on tea and herbs.
Lu Yu often went to the countryside to gather tea leaves and herbs. On one of those trips, Lu Yu found a spring. The water was quite clear and clean. When Lu made tea with this spring water, he found the tea tasted better than usual. From then on, he realized the importance of water quality in making tea.
In 752 A.D. Lu Yu finished his studies and returned to Jingling, where he met Cui Guofu. They both liked tea, literature and poetry. They soon became good friends. Since then, the two spent much time travelling, drinking tea and writing poems together.
This period was important to Lu Yu as a man of literature. Cui, with his rich experience and skills in writing, became a coach of Lu. He provided necessary help for Lu’s writing. It was during this time that Lu finally wrote the amazing work, The Classic of Tea.
36. What is Lu famous for?
A. Great learning skills. B. Rich life experiences.
C. Deep cultural knowledge. D. Works on tea culture.
37. What does the underlined word “spring” mean in Paragraph 3?
A. a season B. a drink C. ground water D. a kind of tea
38. Which of the following is the correct order according to the passage?
① Lu Yu wrote The Classic of Tea. ② Lu Yu became a student of Zou Fuzi.
③ Lu Yu made friends with Cui Guofu. ④ Lu Yu found water quality was important.

39. What question does the last paragraph answer?
A. Why did Lu Yu love literature? B. What stories are in The Classic of Tea?
C. What made Lu Yu finish his great work? D. How did Lu Yu and Cui become good friends?
40. What kind of person is Lu Yu according to the passage?

When was the last time you used cash? For many of us, it feels like ages. Have you ever looked carefully at RMB notes (纸币)?
Today, we pay for milk tea or meals with just a phone QR code. Notes seem to have disappeared. But they are a lot more than just money. Instead, they offer important windows into Chinese culture. Take the ¥100 note, for example. Its background looks very similar to a phoenix (凤凰) design on a piece of lacquer ware (漆器)!
In fact, China was one of the first countries in the world to use paper money. During the Song Dynasty, people began to use notes such as jiaozi. They had detailed designs. Besides being beautiful, this made it hard to make fake money (假币). Later, another note — baochao, appeared in the Ming Dynasty.
Today, each RMB note has a flower that plays an important role in Chinese culture. For instance, the ¥50 note bears the chrysanthemum (菊花). This flower is often considered as a symbol of a person who lives alone in nature and far away from others. The most famous one is Tao Yuanming, the poet who wrote the famous line “Picking chrysanthemums by the eastern fence.”
Another great example is the plum blossom (梅花) on the ¥100 note. This flower comes out in the cold of winter, so it often stands for strength, hope, and courage. It’s probably the most popular flower in our culture and has appeared in poems in great numbers.
In a word, RMB banknotes carry much more culture than their face value.
