They fit the gala’s theme “Galloping Forward, Unstoppable” (飞速前进，势不可挡). Each horse comes from China’s history: Qiqi looks like an elegant Western Zhou bronze horse, feeling noble. Jiji is modeled after the Han Dynasty’s “heavenly horse”, symbolizing courage and progress. Chichi takes inspiration from the Tang Dynasty’s “three-colored horse”, full of confidence. Chengcheng is based on Przewalski’s horse (a rare wild horse), standing for harmony (和谐) between humans and nature. All four have traditional cloud patterns, which add beauty and cultural meaning. In Chinese culture, horses represent strength, persistence, and good luck. These mascots don’t just bring festival joy—they also spread traditional culture. They let young people learn about ancient Chinese art and values in a fun way. In short, these mascots are more than just symbols—they’re cultural ambassadors connecting the past and present. We’re looking forward to seeing them at the 2026 Gala, sharing Chinese culture’s charm with the world. 16. Which mascot is modeled after the Han Dynasty’s “heavenly horse”? A. Qiqi. B. Jiji. C. Chichi. D. Chengcheng. 17. What is the main idea of the last paragraph? A. The mascots are only for fun. B. The mascots are cultural ambassadors. C. The mascots are only symbols. D. The mascots can run very fast. 18. We can infer from the passage that________. A. The four mascots are all based on wild horses B. The gala wants to spread Chinese culture through mascots C. Przewalski’s horse comes from the Tang Dynasty D. Cloud patterns are only used on festival mascots B The lion dance is a traditional Chinese performance art with a rich history. It is performed during festivals, celebrations, and important events, such as weddings, business openings and especially Chinese New Year. People believe it brings good luck and keeps away from bad spirits. It creates a festival atmosphere and brings happiness. Two artists wear a lion costume to perform (表演) the dance. One plays the head and front legs. The other plays the back and hind legs. The pair work together to do many difficult movements during the performance. They need to practice kung fu to do their job well. The lion dance was being performed as early as the Han Dynasty. No one knows exactly how it started. Some say it had to do with war. One day, an emperor dreamed of a strange animal after a fight. It was fierce but didn’t look like a tiger. The emperor wanted eagerly to know what it was. The next day, his advisors told him that this animal was a lion. The emperor thought that it was a gift from heaven. Then, he asked people to make this animal out of paper, cloth and bamboo. The “lion models” were used in future fights to encourage soldiers (战士). Later it became a form of art. The lion became a symbol of power, courage, and wisdom in Chinese culture. The lion dance takes two forms. One is performed in the north and the other in the south. The northern lion looks more real, while the southern lion looks more like a dragon. The northern lion pays more attention to the leg movements, while the southern lion moves head dramatically with the rhythm of drums and gongs (锣). Both types show the power and wisdom of Chinese culture. 19. Why do the performers of lion dance need to practice kung fu? A. To fight in future wars. B. To perform difficult movements. C. To scare away bad spirits. D. To create a festival atmosphere and bring happiness. 20. Which of the following is true according to the passage? A. To perform the lion dance, three artists are needed to work together. B. The emperor created the “lion models” to help achieve victory in the war. C. No one knows when the lion dance was first performed. D. The northern and the southern lions have different cultural meanings. 21. What can be inferred (推断) about the emperor’s dream? A. The dream was about a tiger. B. The dream was a sign of bad luck. C. The dream led to the creation of the lion dance. D. The dream was forgotten by the emperor soon. 22. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage? A. The History of Chinese Festivals B. The Art of Kung Fu in Performances C. The Lion Dance—a Symbol of Chinese Culture D. The Differences Between the Northern and Southern Lion Dance 四、阅读表达 Look at the picture. The big round cheese is rolling (滚动) down a hill, and many people are running after it. This is the Cooper’s Hill Cheese-Rolling Race. It is a very fun tradition in England. Many people from different countries also come to take part and have fun together. On the top of the hill, someone gets the cheese ready. One, two, three, go! The cheese rolls down the hill. It rolls really fast. Right after the cheese, people start to run after it excitedly. The winner of the game can get the big cheese. Everyone wants to be the first one to cross the finishing line. Sometimes people fall down during the race because the hill is very steep (陡峭的). But there is no need to worry. Helpers are everywhere to protect people. When someone falls down, helpers will stop him from rolling down the hill and getting hurt. There are also doctors at the finishing line to make sure everyone is okay. Everyone has so much fun. The race is not just about winning the cheese.
