作文
Dear Mike,
I'm glad to hear that you're interested in Chinese traditional festivals. My favorite one is the Mid-Autumn Festival.
It falls on the 15th day of the eighth lunar month. On that day, family members get together to have a big dinner. We eat delicious mooncakes and admire the bright full moon at night. It's a time for family reunion and giving thanks. We believe the full moon stands for togetherness.
I hope you can come to China and experience it one day!
Yours,
Li Hua

Can the sounds of nature be music? For the famous composer Tan Dun, the answer is yes. He believes the best music comes from nature, like the sounds of rushing water and blowing wind.
In 1998, Tan Dun wrote an amazing piece called Water Concerto. This piece of music does not use any traditional musical instruments like the piano or violin. Instead, Tan makes over 50 different sounds simply by controlling the speed of water flow. He uses water as an instrument. "They're the sounds of nature, and they create different pictures in different minds," Tan said.
Tan Dun's educational background has allowed him to build a bridge between Eastern and Western styles of music. He successfully brings them together in his works. For example, the award music he wrote for the Beijing 2008 Olympic Games used traditional Chinese music and the sounds of an ancient Chinese bell, but in a Western style.
"My music is to dream without boundaries," Tan once said. In his works, the past and the present, everyday objects and musical instruments, traditional Chinese music and modern Western music all mix together to make a new type—music without boundaries.
34. What is the main idea of the passage?
A. The life story of Tan Dun.
B. The history of the Olympic Games music.
C. Tan Dun's unique style of "music without boundaries".
D. How to play the Water Concerto.
35. What is special about Water Concerto?
A. It was written for the Beijing Olympics.
B. It uses an orchestra of 50 musicians.
C. It is a famous Italian opera.
D. It uses the sounds of water instead of instruments.
36. The underlined word "boundaries" in the last paragraph probably means "________".
A. dreams B. limits C. sounds D. styles
37. According to the passage, Tan Dun's music for the Beijing 2008 Olympics ________.
A. only used traditional Chinese instruments
B. was in a purely Western style
C. mixed Chinese and Western musical styles
D. was not very successful
【答案】34. C 35. D 36. B 37. C
【解析】这是一篇说明文(人物创作理念介绍),通过具体事例阐述作曲家谭盾的音乐哲学。主旨大意是:谭盾主张"无边界"音乐理念,将自然声音(如水流)与东西方文化元素融合,打破传统音乐界限,创造具有跨文化意义的创新作品。
34. 主旨大意题
分析:全文围绕谭盾"music without boundaries"的核心理念展开,从《水乐》的自然声音实验到奥运会音乐的东西方融合,均体现这一主题。选项A(生平故事)、B(奥运会历史)、D(演奏方法)均片面或偏离重点,故选C。
35. 细节理解题
分析:根据第二段"does not use any traditional musical instruments... uses water as an instrument"可知,其特殊性在于以水流声替代传统乐器,故选D。
36. 词义猜测题

37. 细节理解题
分析:第三段明确说明"used traditional Chinese music... but in a Western style",表明中西风格融合,故选C。

Can the sounds of nature be music? For the famous composer Tan Dun, the answer is yes. He believes the best music comes from nature, like the sounds of rushing water and blowing wind.
In 1998, Tan Dun wrote an amazing piece called Water Concerto. This piece of music does not use any traditional musical instruments like the piano or violin. Instead, Tan makes over 50 different sounds simply by controlling the speed of water flow. He uses water as an instrument. "They're the sounds of nature, and they create different pictures in different minds," Tan said.
Tan Dun's educational background has allowed him to build a bridge between Eastern and Western styles of music. He successfully brings them together in his works. For example, the award music he wrote for the Beijing 2008 Olympic Games used traditional Chinese music and the sounds of an ancient Chinese bell, but in a Western style.
"My music is to dream without boundaries," Tan once said. In his works, the past and the present, everyday objects and musical instruments, traditional Chinese music and modern Western music all mix together to make a new type—music without boundaries.
34. What is the main idea of the passage?
A. The life story of Tan Dun.
B. The history of the Olympic Games music.

Paper Cutting: A Beautiful Chinese Art
Paper cutting is one of China's most popular traditional folk arts. It has a long history of over 1,500 years. Chinese people often use red paper to make paper cuttings because red is a symbol of happiness and good luck in China.
During the Spring Festival and weddings, people put paper cuttings on windows, doors, and walls to celebrate and wish for good luck. The patterns are usually about flowers, animals, and things from Chinese history and culture.
To make a paper cutting, artists use scissors or knives to cut the paper into different shapes. It looks easy, but it is actually very difficult. It needs a lot of practice and skill.

Paper Cutting: A Beautiful Chinese Art
Paper cutting is one of China's most popular traditional folk arts. It has a long history of over 1,500 years. Chinese people often use red paper to make paper cuttings because red is a symbol of happiness and good luck in China.
During the Spring Festival and weddings, people put paper cuttings on windows, doors, and walls to celebrate and wish for good luck. The patterns are usually about flowers, animals, and things from Chinese history and culture.
To make a paper cutting, artists use scissors or knives to cut the paper into different shapes. It looks easy, but it is actually very difficult. It needs a lot of practice and skill.
