He has  　1　 millions of online fans in recent years. An, who is from Longshan Village, Fenggang County, Guizhou Province,  　2　 out of high school in 2011. He then left home and tried several jobs in some big cities, but  　3　 of them was fit for him. In 2019, taking the advice of his parents, he decided to be a carpenter and soon he fell in love with it. Over the past years, An has kept on learning new skills from books and websites. When faced with difficulties, he would  　4　 teaching videos on the internet and practise over and over again. Then he also posted the process of making wooden works online. In 2020, An made a wooden work first built by Lu Ban, a Chinese woodworker who lived around 2,500 years ago. He then began to design more works about  　5　 Chinese culture. An has designed hundreds of works. Now he is trying to make another wooden work—a model of Wenfeng Tower with hundreds of years of history in his hometown. Influenced by him, more people have started to have an  　6　 in ancient crafts(工艺) and culture. “My video that has the most views online shows the bracelet(手镯) I made for my mother.

I could go there and be Olivia Pullman—not Via, which is my name at home. Via was what they called me in primary school, too. Back then, everyone knew all about us, my parents and August. But in middle school, a lot of people didn’t know about August. My old friends did, of course, but my new friends didn’t. Or if they knew, it surely wasn’t the first thing they knew about me. “Olivia? Yeah, she’s nice. Did you hear she has a brother who’s deformed(畸形的)?” I always  　▲　 the word, but I knew it was how people described(描述) August. And I knew those kinds of conversations probably happened all the time, every time I left the room at a party, or ran into groups of friends at the pizza place. And that’s okay. I’m always going to be the sister of a kid with a birth defect(缺陷): that’s not the problem. I just don’t want others to define me that way. The best thing about high school is that hardly anybody knows me at all, except Miranda and Ella. And they know not to go around talking about it. Miranda, Ella and I have known each other since the first grade. What’s so nice is that we never have to explain(解释) things to one another. When I decided I wanted them to call me Olivia instead of Via, they got it without my having to explain. Throughout middle school, Miranda, Ella and I were pretty much our own little group. I don’t know whether the three of us found each other because we were so alike in so many ways, or whether we’ve become so alike in so many ways because we found each other. We were so happy when we all got into Faulkner High School, especially when almost no one else from our middle school did. This is why I haven’t understood what’s been going on with us lately, now that we’re in high school. It’s nothing like how I thought it would be. — Adapted from Wonder (　　)1. What did Olivia like most about middle school? A. She could make many more new friends there. B. She could be herself instead of August’s sister. C. She didn’t need to live far away from her family. D. She didn’t need to do as much schoolwork as before. (　　)2. Which of the following words is the best for “ 　▲　”? A. hated B. forgot C. used D. knew (　　)3. What can we learn about Miranda and Ella? A. They could understand Olivia well. B. They could explain things to Olivia. C. They were Olivia’s new friends then. D. They were quite different from Olivia. (　　)4. What does the underlined word “define” probably mean here? A. Call. B. Choose. C. Greet. D. Describe. (　　)5. What will Olivia probably talk about in the next part of the story? A. How the three girls will deal with school problems. B. How the three girls will care about August and help him. C. How her friendship with Miranda and Ella will grow stronger. D. How her friendship with Miranda and Ella will begin to change. B Soy sauce(酱油) was invented by the Chinese over 2,000 years ago and is still used in Chinese cooking every day. Nowadays people don’t give much thought to the traditional way of making soy sauce, as they mostly buy the soy sauce produced using modern chemical methods. Little known to the outside world, a century-old factory in Xianshi Town, Luzhou City, Sichuan still uses the natural method to produce soy sauce. It simply puts the soybean mixture in big jars in the sun. The process takes up to three years to complete. The company has been making soy sauce for more than 130 years. Water, salt and soybeans are needed to make soy sauce. Natural bacteria(细菌) and old jars make it taste better. The process allows the beans to naturally produce oil, creating a full taste. It is the most special thing about this soy sauce. The factory can only produce about 2,000 jars of soy sauce every year. Also, it takes over ten times longer to finish the whole process in this traditional way. As a result, the factory has faced many ups and downs. Luckily, the traditional method of making soy sauce in this factory became an Intangible Cultural Heritage(非物质文化遗产) in Sichuan Province in 2007, and was an Intangible Cultural Heritage of China in 2014. “I had the idea of giving it up, but I usually said to myself that good things never come easy, just like our soy sauce,” the factory owner said. (　　)6. Why do people seldom think of the natural way of making soy sauce now? A. Because they think soy sauce is unhealthy. B. Because they don’t like the taste of soy sauce. C. Because they seldom use soy sauce when cooking. D. Because they mostly buy soy sauce made in modern ways. (　　)7. What can we know about the factory in Paragraph 2? A. It is a famous factory in China. B. It has a history of over a century. C. It took up to 3 years to build the factory. D. It makes soy sauce with new technology. (　　)8. What does “It” refer to in Paragraph 3? A. The low price. B. The long history. C. The good taste. D. The short process. (　　)9. What can we learn from the factory owner’s words? A. Never give up. B. Knowledge is power. C. Seeing is believing. D. Practice makes perfect. (　　)10. What is the main idea of this passage? A. The steps of making soy sauce. B. Good things to add while cooking. C. Skills of making modern soy sauce. D. A traditional way to make soy sauce. 第二节　阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有一项为多余选项。(每小题1分,共5分) Do you like wearing bright and colourful clothes? Today, we can get all kinds of colourful clothes easily in stores. But how about people in ancient times? 11.  　　 One old method that was very popular in China was tie-dye(扎染). Tie-dye is a traditional Chinese method of dyeing clothes. 12.  　　 During the Tang and Song periods, people presented tie-dyed clothes to the emperors as valuable gifts. People in those days made dye(染料) by hand, and blue dyes usually came from special plants. 13.  　　 First, you need to use ropes to tie your cloth together. Then you put the cloth into the dye. As the cloth is folded and dyed, some parts of the cloth will become dark in colour, while other parts will be lighter. When you open the cloth, you’ll see beautiful shapes and colours. In 2006, the tie-dye skill became China’s National Intangible Cultural Heritage. Anning City in Yunnan Province is well-known for its tie-dye skills. Yang Cheng learned this traditional skill from his mother in the 1980s. Since then, he has been working hard to improve it. 14.  　　 On the other hand, he studied new skills from other countries. Nowadays he still dyes clothes and teaches his daughter this skill. His love for the art and hard work make him a great teacher. 15.  　　 More than 60,000 people have learned from him. His love and efforts have kept this old art form alive and popular in modern times. A. It has a history of more than 1,000 years. B. He is one of the most successful artists. C. Yang now teaches the tie-dye skill in many places. D. The process of tie-dyeing is quite simple but very creative. E. How did they get their clothes to have such beautiful colours? F. On the one hand, Yang carried on the old ways of tie-dyeing. 四、 用方框中所给单词或短语填空(其中有一个是多余的)。(每小题1分,共5分) be crazy about　unlucky　in a mess　inactive　filling　untying 1.

The first classical Suzhou garden was created during the Spring and Autumn Period in the 6th century BC. More gardens were built in the following centuries and most of them were private gardens of scholars(学者) and officials. During the Ming and Qing dynasties, the construction(建设) of the gardens reached its peak because of the prosperity(繁荣) of Suzhou in that period. It is said that there were more than 200 gardens all over the city and that Suzhou was famous as the “paradise on earth” and the “City of Gardens”. Nowadays, 97 well-protected gardens are open to the public as tourist attractions. Among them, some famous gardens are regarded as typical examples of Suzhou Gardens, such as the Humble Administrator’s Garden, the Lingering Garden, the Master of the Nets Garden and so on. Suzhou Gardens in many ways explain the ideas behind classical Chinese garden design. Their owners were not just interested in having a pleasing arrangement(安排) of plants and flowers: they used history, philosophy, art and architecture(建筑学) in their designs. Each element(要素) of a classical Chinese garden—each hill, pond, plant and rock—is filled with meaning. Although every element was carefully designed, the end goal was always to have a garden which looked like it was created by nature, without the help of human hands. Suzhou Gardens show the development of Chinese garden design over more than two thousand years. They are national 5A tourist attractions in China and 9 of them have been added to the UNESCO World Heritage List. 根据短文内容回答问题,每题答案不超过8个词。 1. When was the first classical Suzhou garden built? 2. How many gardens are open to tourists now?  　 　 3. Which period was the golden age of Suzhou Gardens? 4. What does the third paragraph mainly tell us? 5. Why do you think Suzhou Gardens are important? 八、 书面表达。(共10分) 最近,你校开展了“巧手制书签,书香满校园”主题活动,请你以“A DIY bookmark for my favourite book”为题,根据表格中的内容提示写一篇英语短文,向学校英文报的读书专栏投稿,介绍制作书签的目的和过程,并分享制作心得。100词左右(开头已给出,不计入总词数)。 Why you made it help enjoy reading your favourite book(the name, the type of the book, what you like most) How you made it Materials & Tools • card • scissors, glue ...

B Soy sauce(酱油) was invented by the Chinese over 2,000 years ago and is still used in Chinese cooking every day. Nowadays people don’t give much thought to the traditional way of making soy sauce, as they mostly buy the soy sauce produced using modern chemical methods. Little known to the outside world, a century-old factory in Xianshi Town, Luzhou City, Sichuan still uses the natural method to produce soy sauce.

People in those days made dye(染料) by hand, and blue dyes usually came from special plants. 13.  　D　 First, you need to use ropes to tie your cloth together. Then you put the cloth into the dye. As the cloth is folded and dyed, some parts of the cloth will become dark in colour, while other parts will be lighter. When you open the cloth, you’ll see beautiful shapes and colours. In 2006, the tie-dye skill became China’s National Intangible Cultural Heritage. Anning City in Yunnan Province is well-known for its tie-dye skills. Yang Cheng learned this traditional skill from his mother in the 1980s. Since then, he has been working hard to improve it. 14.  　F　 On the other hand, he studied new skills from other countries. Nowadays he still dyes clothes and teaches his daughter this skill. His love for the art and hard work make him a great teacher. 15.  　C　 More than 60,000 people have learned from him.

The first classical Suzhou garden was created during the Spring and Autumn Period in the 6th century BC. More gardens were built in the following centuries and most of them were private gardens of scholars(学者) and officials. During the Ming and Qing dynasties, the construction(建设) of the gardens reached its peak because of the prosperity(繁荣) of Suzhou in that period. It is said that there were more than 200 gardens all over the city and that Suzhou was famous as the “paradise on earth” and the “City of Gardens”. Nowadays, 97 well-protected gardens are open to the public as tourist attractions. Among them, some famous gardens are regarded as typical examples of Suzhou Gardens, such as the Humble Administrator’s Garden, the Lingering Garden, the Master of the Nets Garden and so on. Suzhou Gardens in many ways explain the ideas behind classical Chinese garden design. Their owners were not just interested in having a pleasing arrangement(安排) of plants and flowers: they used history, philosophy, art and architecture(建筑学) in their designs. Each element(要素) of a classical Chinese garden—each hill, pond, plant and rock—is filled with meaning. Although every element was carefully designed, the end goal was always to have a garden which looked like it was created by nature, without the help of human hands. Suzhou Gardens show the development of Chinese garden design over more than two thousand years. They are national 5A tourist attractions in China and 9 of them have been added to the UNESCO World Heritage List. 根据短文内容回答问题,每题答案不超过8个词。 1. When was the first classical Suzhou garden built? During the Spring and Autumn Period./In the 6th century BC. 2. How many gardens are open to tourists now?  　97 gardens. 　 3. Which period was the golden age of Suzhou Gardens? The Ming and Qing dynasties. 4. What does the third paragraph mainly tell us? The ideas behind the design of Suzhou Gardens. 5. Why do you think Suzhou Gardens are important? Because they show ancient Chinese wisdom./Because of their perfect nature-human harmony.(言之有理即可) 八、 书面表达。(共10分) 最近,你校开展了“巧手制书签,书香满校园”主题活动,请你以“A DIY bookmark for my favourite book”为题,根据表格中的内容提示写一篇英语短文,向学校英文报的读书专栏投稿,介绍制作书签的目的和过程,并分享制作心得。100词左右(开头已给出,不计入总词数)。 Why you made it help enjoy reading your favourite book(the name, the type of the book, what you like most) How you made it Materials & Tools • card • scissors, glue ...

A DIY bookmark for my favourite book Last week I took part in our school’s Reading & Bookmark-making activity.  　Its purpose was to help us enjoy reading our favourite book. My favourite book is the classic novel Journey to the West, one of the Four Great Classical Novels. I like Monkey King best because he helps the weak and never gives up.　 In order to make a bookmark, I prepared a card, scissors, glue and so on. First, I cut the card into long strips. And then I drew a picture of a monkey on the left and wrote down a famous saying “Nothing is impossible if you put your heart into it.” on the right to encourage me not to give up when facing difficulties. At last, I glued it to a thin piece of wood. Although I met with some difficulties in this process, I never gave up and I am proud of myself. 1 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
