What else could it be?” The other scientists headed back to their computers to begin researching. Paul and I continued to look at the fossil closely. It seemed that the creature (生物) was smaller than a human, and could stand on two legs. The next morning, I ran to the fossil. The fossil was different! Now it looked like a small bear. “What happened?” I asked. Everyone had a puzzled look on their faces and no one had an answer. When night fell, we set up a rotation (轮班) to make sure two of us were with the fossil at all times. All was quiet for my watch (值班) at midnight. In the morning, I went to the fossil.

This old book played an important role in the world and inspired (给予灵感) today’s works. Let’s learn more about it! Shan Hai Jing took shape before the Qin Dynasty (221-206 BC). Like an encyclopedia (百科全书), it writes about the world in the eyes of people at that time. The 30,000-word book records about 40 states, 550 mountains, 300 rivers, more than 100 people in history and 400 interesting animals. Shan Hai Jing had a deep influence (影响) on the culture of mythology (神话学) in the world. It was taken to Japan during the Sui (581-618) and Tang (618-907) dynasties, or much earlier. In Japan, it was popular. People there once saw it as a guidebook for traveling in China. The book’s monsters (怪兽) were also popular. Shan Hai Jing has inspired many works. Liu Siliang is a teacher at Shanghai Jiao Tong University. He said the book inspired the writing of Journey to the West and Strange Tales from a Chinese Studio《聊斋志异》. Pop culture works also borrow ideas from the book. Some of the animals in the book even go into movies, such as Zouwu, the star monster in Shan Hai Jing. It has a tiger-body with stripes of five colors. Its tail is longer than its body. It can travel 1,600 kilometers in a day. We can see it in the popular movie Fantastic Beasts II in 2021. 21．Why did the writer talk about the strange animals in Paragraph 1? A．To answer some questions. B．To give some examples. C．To interest the readers. D．To make a conclusion. 22．What does the underlined word “it” refer to in Paragraph 2? A．The encyclopedia. B．The mythology. C．Shan Hai Jing. D．The monsters. 23．Which of the following can you find in Shan Hai Jing? 1. states 2. mountains 3. rivers 4. plants 5. art A．1234 B．123 C．234 D．345 24．What happened when Shan Hai Jing arrived in Japan? A．People liked the book except for the monsters. B．People were afraid of the monsters in the book. C．It was too difficult for people to understand. D．People liked both the book and the monsters. 25．What is the main idea of the passage? A．Shan Hai Jing has inspired works across the world. B．Shan Hai Jing includes many special monsters. C．Shan Hai Jing sells very well across the world. D．All people like the monsters from Shan Hai Jing. 【答案】21．C 22．C 23．B 24．D 25．A 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了《山海经》这部古老书籍，讲述了其成书时间、内容，对世界神话文化的影响，对众多作品的启发以及在日本的情况等。 【详解】21．第一段提到“Foxes with nine tails, animals with human faces and fish bodies, turtles with bird heads and snake tails, these magical animals are from Shan Hai Jing (The Classic of Mountains and Seas).”作者列举了《山海经》中各种奇特的动物，目的是引起读者的兴趣。 22．第二段“Shan Hai Jing took shape before the Qin Dynasty (221-206BC). Like an encyclopedia (百科全书), it writes about the world in the eyes of people at that time”中，前文提到了《山海经》，后面说像百科全书一样记录当时人们眼中的世界，所以“it”指代的是“Shan Hai Jing”。 23．第二段提到“The 30,000-word book records about 40 states, 550 mountains, 300 rivers, more than 100 people in history and 400 interesting animals.”可知在《山海经》中能找到州、山、河，没有提到植物和艺术。所以能找到1、2、3。 24．第三段提到“In Japan, it was popular. People there once saw it as a guidebook for traveling in China. The book’s monsters (怪兽) were also popular.”说明《山海经》到了日本后，书和书中的怪兽都很受欢迎。 25．文章最后一段提到“Shan Hai Jing has inspired many works.”以及前文对《山海经》对世界文化、作品等方面影响的阐述，可知文章主要讲的是《山海经》启发了世界各地的作品。 第二节 阅读还原 （共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分） 根据短文内容，将下面的选项还原到文中空白处，使短文内容完整、通顺，每个选项只能用一次，其中有一个选项是多余的。 Qian Xuesen was a great scientist. 26 He is also known as “the King of Rockets.” Thanks to his research, China’s space technology has progressed in a rapid way.

B “What is that?” “It looks like a fossil (化石).” “It looks part-human.” “It can’t be...” The words “animal” and “human” were discussed by the archaeologists (考古学家). “What if it’s neither human nor animal? What if it’s something we haven’t discovered yet?” I said. There was silence. Paul said, “I think you might be right, Jack. It isn’t an animal we know of. It’s not human. What else could it be?” The other scientists headed back to their computers to begin researching. Paul and I continued to look at the fossil closely. It seemed that the creature (生物) was smaller than a human, and could stand on two legs. The next morning, I ran to the fossil. The fossil was different! Now it looked like a small bear. “What happened?” I asked. Everyone had a puzzled look on their faces and no one had an answer.

C Foxes with nine tails, animals with human faces and fish bodies, turtles with bird heads and snake tails, these magical animals are from Shan Hai Jing (The Classic of Mountains and Seas). This old book played an important role in the world and inspired (给予灵感) today’s works. Let’s learn more about it! Shan Hai Jing took shape before the Qin Dynasty (221-206 BC). Like an encyclopedia (百科全书), it writes about the world in the eyes of people at that time. The 30,000-word book records about 40 states, 550 mountains, 300 rivers, more than 100 people in history and 400 interesting animals. Shan Hai Jing had a deep influence (影响) on the culture of mythology (神话学) in the world. It was taken to Japan during the Sui (581-618) and Tang (618-907) dynasties, or much earlier. In Japan, it was popular. People there once saw it as a guidebook for traveling in China. The book’s monsters (怪兽) were also popular. Shan Hai Jing has inspired many works. Liu Siliang is a teacher at Shanghai Jiao Tong University. He said the book inspired the writing of Journey to the West and Strange Tales from a Chinese Studio《聊斋志异》. Pop culture works also borrow ideas from the book. Some of the animals in the book even go into movies, such as Zouwu, the star monster in Shan Hai Jing. It has a tiger-body with stripes of five colors. Its tail is longer than its body. It can travel 1,600 kilometers in a day.
